In the opening half hour, United were unable to find the back of the net.

To be fair, United did a good job attacking today.

But the opponent is too fierce.

Van Dijk, in particular, is like a hanger, and he is present everywhere in the defensive position.

Several times of simple and decisive defense have made world-class strikers like Ibrahimovic and Rooney deflated.

Southampton did well as the whole team today, holding on to the defence and not giving United any chances.

Not only that, but they also took two counter-attacking chances and almost opened the scoring.

If it weren't for De Gea's brilliant performance, I'm afraid Mourinho would be angry and smashing the bottle right now.

In the 39th minute of the game, Southampton midfielder Hojbjerg made a long pass after breaking the ball!

This time it was Pogba who made a mistake in ball control and was counterattacked by the opponent!

Up front, Boufal cut forward quickly and got another good chance to shoot!

Push into the far corner again, this time De Gea struggled to the ground!

With a touch of his fingertips, the ball slid out of the door!

Old Trafford was in full swing!

This is an exaggeration!

Mourinho on the sidelines of the pitch was so angry that he kicked the turf hard!

This defense is terrible!

The team must continue to invest more this summer and buy new defenders!

In the final minutes of the first half, United's attack was still fierce, but it was still fruitless.

The referee's whistle blew and the first half was over.

Manchester United fans, who were expecting a goal, could only pin their hopes on the second half.

In the second half, Manchester United continued to attack quickly.

But it's still hard to break down.

Until the 77th minute of the game.

Manchester United replaced veteran captain Wayne Rooney and centre-back Eric Bailly with Marcus Rashford and Jesse Lingard.

The formation also changed to 3-5-2.

Marcus Rashford stepped up front and formed a two-striker posture with Ibrahimovic.

Xia Xing and Mkhitaryan are still attacking left and right.

The substitution had an immediate effect.

In the 81st minute of the game, Xia Xing made a quick breakthrough on the left side.

After passing two defenders in a row, Southampton was in front of goal!

Defend the slope and squeeze the space of the summer walk!

However, Xia Xing did not choose to move forward, but passed horizontally!

Under the defense of five players, Xia Xing's pass accurately found Mkhitaryan on the right side!

This time, even Alan Shearer in the live broadcast room exclaimed!

"This pass was fantastic!

"Xia found the only passing route in the crowd!

"He's a master passer!

"Mkhitaryan stepped forward quickly and received the ball steadily!

"He's got a good chance!

"Rush into the box and shoot low!

'Southampton goalkeeper Foster went down to save and the ball was blocked!

'Manchester United missed a ......

"They still have a chance!

"The ball was cleared by defender Maya Yoshida, but it didn't go too far!

"Fell at the feet of Xia!

"Xia, who was still passing the ball on the left side just now, has come to the top of the arc of the penalty area at this moment!

"He grabbed the second point!

"There's chaos in the penalty area!

Xia didn't wait for a moment, she just got up and pushed!

"The angle of the ball is not particularly tricky, but it is very fast!

"There was a lot of fighting in the penalty area, no one touched the ball!

"The ball goes straight into the corner!

"The ball is in!

"In the 81st minute of the game, Manchester United finally broke the deadlock!

"1 to 0!

"They took the lead!

"This goal is so important!

"Wonderful!

"Xia passes the ball alone, grabs the second point, and shoots the net!

"All in one go!

"This goal is the epitome of what he has done this season!

"Manchester United are one step away from regaining the league title!

"Ten minutes to go!"

Alan Shearer applauded excitedly, and Carragher next to him was still a little unwilling.

"It's not over yet, anything is possible."

As a Liverpool fan, he naturally didn't want to see Manchester United win the title.

But how can Southampton stop Manchester United from winning?

In the 88th minute of the game, Xia Xing dribbled the ball on the left side again.

Southampton had three defenders in the middle, but they still couldn't stop Xia Xing's passing lane.

Xia Xing faked a true pass, suddenly kicked out on the side, and the long pass went straight to the penalty area!

Once again, he found Ibrahimovic in the box accurately!

This time, Xia Xing's passing was very smart, he absorbed the defensive characteristics of Van Dijk at the beginning, and this time Xia Xing directly gave it to half an air!

Ibrahimovic also understood that he had chosen his position in advance, and Van Dijk couldn't interfere too much!

Volley!

Respond to the network!

"2 to 0!

"Manchester United extend their lead!

"Their victory is assured!

"Their league title is secure!

"The fans in the stands have already started to celebrate the victory in advance, to celebrate the championship!"

Although the game was still a few minutes away, Alan Shearer had no interest in introducing the progress of the game.

The camera flashed, and Sir Alex Ferguson appeared in the VIP room in the stands.

Old Trafford erupted in applause.

Sir Alex Ferguson was beaming with a smile on his face, rejoicing at his team's second goal.

Looking at Sir Alex Ferguson's face, Alan Shearer was also very emotional.

He took the fans on a journey back a few years and reminisced about the years of Manchester United.

In the summer of 2013, Sir Alex Ferguson left.

"It was clear to everyone at the time that United had lost their most valuable asset.

'Sir Alex Ferguson has given Manchester United so much over the last 30 years.

"Manchester United can do without Cantona, they can expel David Beckham, they can let Cristiano Ronaldo go, but they must not lose Sir Alex Ferguson.

'He's the backbone of Manchester United.

"In the Red Devils, he is like a master and a father, everyone is afraid of him, and everyone loves him.

"He's strict with everybody,

"Even when Beckham, who was like a son, made a mistake, he drove him away mercilessly;

"He is gentle with all,

"When the players are attacked, he is always the first to stand up and protect the players.

"Whether it's Cantona, who kicked the fans, or Beckham, who got a red card in the '98 World Cup,

"And Ronaldo, who was sent off in the '06 World Cup,

"Ferguson did his best to protect his disciples from the outside world,

It is because of this character that he brought out this Red Devils team that has made the whole of Europe fearful.

'After his departure, Manchester United went through a throes of pain.

'David Moyes, Louis van Gaal, Ryan Giggs......

"None of them are the real men of Manchester United.

"Until Mourinho arrived last summer.

"The tough Mourinho and the hot-blooded Manchester United have finally joined forces,

"Mr. Golden Globe Xia, Mr. Pogba, Swedish God Tayib......

"Countless big-name stars have come to join us, and Manchester United's squad is getting bigger and bigger.

'From the first game of the season, Manchester United have led the Premier League table, until now.

"Manchester United's men have overcome all obstacles to finally put the Red Devils back in their rightful place!

"Ibrahimovic hit a header wide and the referee finally blew the whistle!

"It's over!

"The Red Devils are at the top of the Premier League again!

"They regained the Premier League title!

"The skies in England are red this season!"
