Manchester United's line-up today has changed a lot from the previous leg, with Rafael at right-back, Carrick and Paul Scholes in midfield, and Ashley on the left. Yang.

Valencia on the right and Welbeck and Rooney in attack.

Overall, their formation today was more aggressive.

And of course, this is their home stadium and they will not accept defeat, they will not accept a draw, they just want to take all three points.

On the QPR side, goalkeeper Handanovic, defenders McConn, Alderweireld, Van Dijk and Kyle. Walker, midfielder Thiago. Motta, Modric and Borja. Valero, Licardo on the left, and Alda on the right. Turan, the front is Ronaldo.

The two sides are sharp against Mai Mang, and they are both putting on a lineup with strong attacking power, wanting to score points.

However, after the start of the game, both sides were more cautious, not attacking immediately, but cautiously probing.

QPR launched a more ferocious frontcourt pressing, while Manchester United made the overall formation more recyclable. For Ricardo, they also maintained a tight marking, with Rafael barely inserting assists and following Ricardo at all times.

With Raphael's speed, it is still very advantageous to keep an eye on Ricardo.

And Carrick is not responsible for organizing the offense today, and the responsibility of organizing the offense is given to Ginger Head Scholes, and Carrick is responsible for marking Licardo. However, he did not follow Ricardo, but when Licardo cut inside, he stepped forward to press.

Seeing that the attack could not be attacked, QPR was not in a hurry, and slowly controlled the ball in the midfield and backfield, and was not in a hurry to kill the opponent's penalty area.

In the opening 10 minutes, both sides managed to pose a little threat from set-pieces.

The players on the field played unhurriedly, but the fans on both sides were huge.

Interestingly, there are also clear two camps of United fans today.

A group of fans played TIFO, and on the TIFO was a portrait of Ricardo with the words: "Thank you for 2 years, 9 titles, 127 goals!" ”

The other faction of fans was less friendly, unfurling a banner that read, "Eat, traitor, here's your hell!" ”

The former group of fans will sing the song of Ricardo along with the QPR fans, and the latter group will let out earth-shattering boos every time Ricardo touches the ball.

Of course, none of this had much effect on Ricardo.

His mental qualities are hard enough.

Even if tens of thousands of Red Devils fans booed him together, he didn't care.

After 10 minutes, United began to pick up the pace and attack a little harder, but it was QPR who threatened the United goal first with a counter-attack.

In the 13th minute, McCone sent a direct pass over the top forward, Rafael's turn was half a beat slower than Ricardo, and Licardo took the ball in stride, and after reaching the baseline, he made a gesture to cross, but the ball was deducted.

Rafael didn't brake in time and Ricardo dribbled past him.

At this time, Carrick came back to defend, and Ricardo saw that his teammate in the middle was ready, and did not entangle with Carrick, so he crossed directly, Ronaldo flexibly grabbed the first shot, but he shot too right, and De Gea blocked the ball with both hands.

When Luka Modric tried to make a stoppage, the ball was broken by Ferdinand's big foot.

Manchester United also have a chance. In the 16th minute, Rooney sent a through pass, Ashley. Young picked up the ball on the left side of the box and fired a powerful shot past Virgil van Dijk, which Handanovic brilliantly saved.

In the 21st minute, QPR organized an attack on the left flank, and Ricardo distributed the ball to McCone and ran down the middle, and soon McCone inverted the triangle to pass the ball back to Ricardo's feet, and Ricardo fired a shot from the edge of the box, and De Gea flicked the ball out with his fingertips.

Luka Modric whipped in a corner and Van Dijk headed it over too wide and into De Gea's arms.

In the 24th minute, Rooney went to the side to receive the ball, passed McCone and crossed with his feet. Young deflects the ball wide of the ball when unguarded at the back post.

One minute later, Valencia took the ball from the right, Rooney stopped the ball on his chest in the middle, and immediately raised his leg to volley, Alderweireld blocked it in time to block the ball.

Both sides come and go, and there are some opportunities. Manchester United have some advantage at home, but QPR's attack is also a threat.

The commentator analyzed: "Manchester United wants to take advantage of the home game to get all three points, but Mourinho is still relatively conservative in his bones and does not invest many troops in the attack. Usually only Wayne Rooney, Valencia, Ashley. Young and Scholes threw themselves into the attack. With such an attack, it is difficult to break down the goal of the QPR, who have shown us through 31 games so far this season that their defence is not fragile. They have conceded the third-fewest goals in the league, behind Manchester United and Manchester City. ”

"On the QPR side, they are very willing to invest troops in the counter-attack, and Thiago in the midfield. Motta, Modric and Borja. Valero was often involved in attack, with full-backs McCone and Kyle both involved in attack. Walker also plugged in frequently. I wouldn't be surprised if this match ended up being won by QPR. ”

In the 33rd minute, Manchester United made a mistake when passing the ball from the back. Ferdinand's pass to Rafael was a little bigger, and Rafael parked the ball a little far away from his body.

Ricardo rushed quickly, and by the time Rafael sensed it and panicked to get the ball out, it was too late. Ricardo broke the ball from his feet and cut inside with the ball.

Carrick immediately returned to the defense, Ferdinand pounced, Evans immediately filled in Ferdinand's position, and at this moment, Alda. Turan is unmarked.

Ricardo's eyes were quick, and he immediately rubbed the ball, and the ball flew over the defender's head to the back post.

Alda. Turan chested the ball and posed for a volley, but Evans immediately pounced on it to block.

Alda. Turan unloaded the ball, dipped past Evans, raised his left foot and hit the goal, Carrick returned to the defence and tried to break the ball, and Ferdinand also moved to the middle.

At this time, Alda. Turan pulls the ball back and pushes it in the middle.

Luka Modric followed up and picked up the ball on the side of Paul Scholes, with Ronaldo running to draw Rio Ferdinand away and Ricardo into the centre of the box.

Modric's pass was quick to arrive, and Ricardo flanked the goal, did not stop the ball and fired a straight shot, and the ball flew against the turf to the far corner.

De Gea immediately fell to the ground, but it was too late, and the ball rolled over the goal line and happily continued to roll in the net.

A large number of Red Devils fans let out even louder boos, while a small number of Red Devils fans joined QPR fans in applauding and cheering on Ricardo's goal.

INSTEAD OF CELEBRATING, RICCARDO RAN TO THE AWAY SEATING AREA TO BOW TO THE VISITING FANS FROM AFAR, AND THEN RAN TO TIFO TO BOW TO HIS SUPPORTIVE UNITED FANS. He then picked up a red scarf that had been thrown into the stadium by an unknown Manchester United fan and kissed the United crest on it.

He really had the full support of the fans when he was at Manchester United and he was a grateful man.

Of course, he is not worried that the move will irritate QPR fans. Now he is God in the minds of QPR fans, and no matter what he does, QPR fans will not blame him.

Seeing Ricardo's move, the applause of the Red Devils fans became even more intense.
