Chapter 0132 - Frequent Emergencies

Depay was very excited when he came on the pitch, and when the team was in a bad situation, the old man chose to replace him, which is the trust in him. The old man had always been nice to him, and he had to respond positively.

With this in mind, Depay actively ran on the left flank, asking his team-mates for the ball, hoping to change the situation on the field.

However, perhaps it was just on the pitch, his body was not yet warm, and his feet felt a little cold, and the first ball that Rojo passed to him was thrown away after being pushed by the opponent behind him.

However, Depay is still actively grabbing. Without grabbing the ball, he directly put Tottenham Hotspur ball handler Alli to the ground, preventing a quick counter-attack from Tottenham.

However, because the equalizer Tottenham players were really too excited, coupled with the advantage of physical strength, in the next few minutes of the game, they still suppressed Manchester United on the field, and Depay did not get many opportunities to counterattack at all.

In the 78th minute, Darmian was fouled again and Tottenham were once again awarded a free-kick from the same position they had come close to scoring.

Although Lamela and Eriksen were both in front of the ball, it was Lamela who took the ball. His free-kick landed in a fantastic spot and Harry Kane was comfortable with it.

And Lingard, who was defending him in front of Kane, didn't even make a symbolic jump during the whole process, just watched his national team teammates jump in front of him and complete this header.

Thankfully, David De Gea once again played the role of savior, tucking Kane's threatening header over the crossbar and the Reds escaped once again.

………………

However, the crisis in the United penalty area remained unresolved as Tottenham were awarded a corner.

The corner was taken by Christian Eriksen and his set-pieces were very threatening, and the United players did not dare to slack off and were ready in the box.

Eriksen's corner whistled straight to 12 yards, this time from centre-back Vertonghen, but De Gea was brave enough to save Vertonghen's header again.

The ball is still under Tottenham's control, and Manchester United is in chaos in front of the goal.

In the end, it was Tottenham left-back Ross who cleared the ball for United with a long-range shot, and the England international's shot sent the ball high into the stands.

The Reds then took the ball and David De Gea's big foot sent the ball to the right of the halfway line. Darmian crosses a header from the touchline to Marcus Rashford, who is close to the touchline.

Because Rose was constantly harassing with small movements behind him, Rashford couldn't turn forward, so he had to pass the ball back to Damian, who caught up to help, and then shook off Rose and ran forward.

After receiving the ball, Darmian did not choose to dribble, but directly rolled the ball high and crossed the Tottenham defence.

Rashford, who ran forward, once again got the ball on the touchline parallel to the line of the penalty area, and he was about to go forward, but Rose who defended him directly arched his body and arched him off the sideline, and the ball was lost.

In this confrontation, Rashford's relatively thin physical weakness was exposed.

Fortunately, the rest of United's players followed suit in the process, mobbing the Tottenham players and reclaiming possession.

Because the right side was too densely populated, Schneiderlin received the ball and moved it directly to the middle, and after Rojo received the ball, Depay, who reached out to him on the left flank, took two steps forward and took a round about ten yards from the penalty area line to end United's attack.

Marcos Rojo's long-range shot was of decent quality and was denied by Alderweireld to secure a corner.

Depay's corner was blocked by a Tottenham player at the front post, while Jesse Lingard, who was trying to save the ball, was unable to do so in a struggle with Eriksen, and United were awarded just one touchline ball in front.

However, United's sideline ball allowed Tottenham to steal and form a quick counter-attack, almost breaking the United goal again.

………………

As the game entered the final ten minutes, the game suddenly accelerated, and the two sides attacked again, which looked really crazy.

When there was not much time left in the game, it ushered in a climax.

Mainly at this time, the Manchester United players who had suffered a physical crisis before also gradually survived the bottleneck period and recovered their physical fitness to a certain extent.

The strikers on both sides shot like crazy, while the goalkeepers of both teams did everything they could to keep the goal in check.

And so the game gradually came to an end.

The two teams played back and forth, but neither team scored, and the score was still 2:2 until the end.

Tottenham and Manchester United fans were nervous, fearing their teams would fall behind in the next minute.

Manchester United and Tottenham fans were just nervous, but Manchester City fans in front of the TV were desperate, and many turned off the TV in anger.

Because if the game ends at this scoreline, they will be pushed to fifth place by Manchester United again and fall out of the Champions League places.

Although Manchester City is still moving forward in the Champions League and advancing to the Champions League semi-finals is still a high probability event, even the most optimistic Manchester City fans dare not think too much about the eventual victory.

Don't look at them now they are just one step away from the last four of the Champions League, but the more we get to this point, the harder it will be to play.

Many Manchester City fans are already preparing to take their anger out on the team management.

This season, Manchester City played well until the team announced that Pep Pellegrini would be replaced by Pep Guardiola at the end of the season, Manchester City had achieved good results on both fronts in the Premier League and Champions League, only three points behind the top of the Premier League table, and the Champions League beat Juventus to qualify as group winners.

If the club's top management didn't have so many moths, the current Manchester City would not be able to qualify for the Champions League, and even the league title could be contested.

However, it was precisely because of the brain-dead behavior of the club's top management that the head coach was announced to be dismissed at the end of the season in the middle of the season, which led to a cliff-like decline in the team's performance.

Now, Manchester City has become the laughing stock in the eyes of many.

According to the analysis of the Daily Mail, the negative impact of announcing the change of coach in advance on the team is self-evident. When players are thinking that the current manager is leaving at the end of the season, it can be difficult to concentrate.

What's more, this way of announcing a change of manager in advance is a big disrespect for the current manager, Manuel Pellegrini.

If Guardiola arrives at Manchester City at the end of the season and finds that the team has no Champions League to play, I wonder what his expression will be?
