As soon as the game began, players from both sides began to battle it out in midfield.

Unlike the previous leg between the two teams, this time, Chelsea are clearly paying more attention to Shen Peng.

When the two teams played last time, Shen Peng had not fully adapted to the rhythm of the Premier League at that time, and now, Shen Peng has been in full swing, and it is not the same as then, so if they are not careful, they will become the background of Shen Peng's performance.

Conte is from Italy, and has coached Juventus and the Italian national team, so he has his own set of concepts for defense, this game let the two midfielders on the right Moses and Matic pinch Shen Peng, and the right fullback Zumaze to assist in the defense, forming a triangle defensive area.

For the opponent to focus on defending Shen Peng, Manchester United has long expected it, after all, almost all opponents are doing this now, so Mourinho did not completely put the task of attacking on Shen Peng, so he asked the players to pass the ball to Lingard on the right side when attacking, once Shen Peng has no chance.

And Pogba, as before, was behind Shen Peng as Shen Peng's response and provided support to Shen Peng.

In the fourth minute, United found a chance.

Fellaini cut off N'Golo Kante and passed the ball to Pogba next to him.

After Pogba got the ball, he once again showed the same value as him, and an unexpected straight plug was passed to the unrivaled near the sideline in front, and Shen Peng just appeared in this position to get the ball!

After Shen Peng got the ball, he dribbled along the sideline, and at the same time, Ibrahimovic in the middle and Lingard on the right, as well as Pogba, Fellaini, and Herrera all ran forward at the same time, which was an offensive opportunity!

Moses, who was not far from Shen Peng, immediately rushed over to defend.

Seeing this, Shen Peng took the ball under his feet, and was about to accelerate to break through from the side!

Since Moses was running from Shen Peng's right front, he seemed to expect Shen Peng to accelerate, so the direction of running was abruptly on one side, running towards Shen Peng's front of him for a distance, so that the two would touch the ball at the same time, and Shen Peng's position at this time was almost along the sideline, so Moses had a good chance of breaking the ball out of the sideline!

When the time comes, regardless of the Chelsea ball from the wingman or the ball from Manchester United, Manchester United's fast attack will be gone, and Chelsea will have enough time to set up their defense.

Shen Peng naturally saw the other party's thoughts, and suddenly took a big step under his feet, his left foot touched the ball first, and then hooked the ball with the sole of his foot, and the direction of the ball's rolling suddenly changed, almost folding at a right angle, rolling directly to the right!

And Moses naturally missed the ball because of running with all his might, and Shen Peng suddenly turned to the right and chased the ball.

However, Moses was not the only one defending Shen Peng, Matic, who was defending Shen Peng with him, suddenly appeared in front of the ball at this time, stretched out a kick, and was ready to destroy the ball - he was not prepared to control the ball, with his speed with Shen Peng, it would be good if he could poke the ball out of the sideline.

As he expected, Shen Peng kicked the ball at the same time as him!

The impact caused both men's feet to bounce back involuntarily and the ball spiraled out of control and rolled towards the Chelsea back, where Kurt Zouma was able to control it as fast as he could.

Seeing this scene, Conte also breathed a sigh of relief.

Shen Peng is really powerful, if it weren't for their special preparation before the game, they might not be able to prevent Shen Peng's attack this time.

Chelsea finally restrained Shen Peng at the cost of three defenders.

For the offensive players, it is nothing to be blocked in a breakthrough, but Shen Peng was thoughtful at this time, thinking about how to break this defense.

Then, there is Chelsea's attacking time, for the current Chelsea attacking routine, other teams in the Premier League have also studied, Manchester United will naturally defend, so the two sides are fighting fiercely in the midfield.

In the thirteenth minute, Manchester United found another opportunity, Shen Peng received a pass from a teammate and met Moses' defense again.

This time, he did not rush to break through, but controlled the ball with his feet and slowly advanced, and Moses slowly retreated.

He carefully observed the situation around him, Matic was behind Moses to the left, Zuma was behind Moses to the right, not far away, and the distance between the three was well maintained, almost an equilateral triangle.

Suddenly, with a knock on his right foot, the ball rolled to the left, and he himself followed.

He's on the left side of the touchline, so the ball has a bit of a back-to-back flavor.

At this time, Zuma suddenly ran over, and at the same time, Moses and Matic did not act rashly and tried to stop Shen Peng, but retreated at the same time and continued to maintain a triangular shape with Zuma!

Shen Peng controlled the ball, Zuma did not rush out, Shen Peng saw the position of several people, and suddenly understood that these three people always maintained an appropriate distance and angle, in this way, whether Shen Peng broke through to the left or to the right, someone responded.

Of course, although this greatly restricts Shen Peng, there is also a big disadvantage, that is, if there are three people to defend Shen Peng, there will inevitably be fewer people in other positions, and once teammates cooperate with the position, it is very likely that it will expose a big flaw to the opponent.

Originally, Shen Peng was going to try a long-range shot at this time to complete the task, but Courtois was in a good position, and if he shot from a distance, it was likely that he would just waste an offensive opportunity, and for Shen Peng, now the team is still focusing on the team's victory at the critical time of the championship, and it is not too late to try to complete the task after the team takes the lead.

So after taking a look at the position of his teammates, he stopped dwelling with Kurt Zouma, got up and passed the ball, razor!

The ball circled a small arc and flew towards the central penalty area, where Ibrahimovic had been waiting for a long time.

However, N'Golo Kante and David Luiz had been defending Ibrahimovic, so Ibrahimovic had no chance to stop the ball and had to shoot straight from his feet.

Shen Peng seemed to expect him to shoot directly, so the height of the ball was very suitable, and he could hit the ball as soon as he lifted his foot, so he relied on his tall body, forcibly leaned on Kante, and volleyed with his feet, the angle of the ball was tricky, and it flew to the corner of the goal!

The ball went in, 1 to 0!

It was a goal that also thrilled the crowd.

As long as Manchester United wins against Chelsea in this game, they will only be one point behind Chelsea with one less game, so even if Manchester United draws in that game, they can surpass Chelsea in the standings by virtue of goal difference!

Conte, as a passionate manager, also kept yelling on the sidelines at this time, directing the players to pay attention to defense.

Soon the game started again, and after the goal was scored, Manchester United were clearly more proactive, and Chelsea were not to be outdone, so the two sides continued to engage in-for-tat.
