In the center of the pitch, Manchester United players hugged and celebrated excitedly!

It was the 87th minute of the game and Manchester United had scored the winning goal!

1 to 0!

Their victory is in sight!

Mourinho on the sidelines of the pitch was amazed.

He didn't just praise the goal, he admired his players.

Especially Xia Xing.

In this stalemate situation, he chose to settle the battle in this way, and he really has him!

He's such a superstar!

When he retires, he will definitely be a super coach!

Manchester United scored a goal and the pressure was lifted instantly.

The game is back up and down the beaten list.

The pressure came to the side of Crystal Palace.

But conceding a goal in this time period, Crystal Palace has no chance at all.

In the last few minutes, they couldn't even put together an effective attack, let alone a shot.

The referee's whistle blows, and the game is over!

1 to 0!

Manchester United win again!

Three points in hand!

But even so, they still received some criticism after the game.

In the live broadcast room, Carragher was not very optimistic about Manchester United's performance in this game.

"Manchester United played so badly today!

"What offensive efficiency?

"What level of shooting?

"It's rubbish!

"We won, but the process was terrible!

"They're just lucky!

'Look at the last three games – 1-0 win at Southampton, 0-0 draw with Besiktas, 1-0 win at Crystal Palace.

"In three games, only two goals have been scored!

"Manchester United's forward group is collectively dumb!

"With this form, Liverpool will definitely beat them in the next game!

"I'm sure of it!

"Wait!"

Carragher said this because Manchester United are about to face the England national derby.

With a win over Crystal Palace on 30 September, all teams will have a short break.

The following week is the official FIFA national team break, with players reporting to their respective national teams to prepare for the international break.

And after the players return, it will be a new round of fierce battles.

For Manchester United in particular, their third-tier battle is back in the field.

On October 14, the eighth round of the English Premier League, away against Liverpool, the English national derby began.

On October 18, in the third round of the Champions League group stage, the home team welcomed the challenge of Sporting Portugal.

On October 21, the ninth round of the Premier League, away to Huddersfield.

On October 25, the English League Cup quarter-finals, away to Swansea.

On October 28, in the tenth round of the Premier League, Tottenham Hotspur was played at home.

On November 1, in the fourth round of the Champions League group stage, away against Sporting de Portugal.

On November 6, the eleventh round of the Premier League, away to Chelsea.

24 days, seven games, three fronts.

And repeatedly fought strong enemies.

In such a field, Mourinho is under a lot of pressure.

Now he is hoping that the national team will not have a mess on the day of the match.

A week of national team competition, the results were not bad, no players were injured.

But it's hard to say about the form of the players.

The pace and style of training and playing with the national team is completely different from that of Manchester United, and it will take a short time for the players to get back into the team.

The league is like a marathon, once you have been interrupted and the pace is interrupted, it is too difficult to regain the feeling.

Adjusting his physical condition as much as possible, Mourinho did his best.

Just for the England national derby in a few days.

For Manchester United fans, it is important to have a few games per season.

The game against Manchester City, the game against Liverpool.

The others are in second place.

Even when Alex Ferguson and Arsene Wenger were competing for the title, the game between Manchester United and Arsenal was not the hottest.

Even in the past, when Chelsea was in power, the confrontation between Manchester United and Chelsea was nowhere near as good as a derby.

Playing Manchester City, a local derby, is bound to prove that red is better than blue.

Playing Liverpool, an English derby, must fight for dominance of red.

And today, the war is back.

Liverpool have been in good form in recent times.

In seven league games, they have five wins, one draw and one loss, and are in third place in the standings.

Following the Manchester City duo.

In the early game, Manchester City won their opponents and kept the Premier League on an eight-game winning streak.

Now, the pressure is on Manchester United's side.

In this situation, this game is not only a derby, but also an important battle on the road to the title.

Gotta win!

This summer, Liverpool have focused on strengthening in the transfer market.

They bought Roma striker Mohamed Salah for €42 million.

Signed Arsenal midfielder Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, which cost 38 million euros.

He also bought 23-year-old young defender Robertson, a transfer deal that only cost 9 million euros.

And all they sold were redundant players such as Sako, Lucas, Stewart, etc.

The overall strength of the team has been further improved.

This season, their goal is not just to win the league, but also to make a breakthrough in the Champions League.

On top of that, they have already agreed with Southampton centre-back Virgil van Dijk about a move in advance and are on the verge of joining in the winter.

Now Jurgen Klopp is ambitious and looking forward to being a leader in change at Liverpool.

In addition, Coutinho, who Barcelona has been thinking about, Liverpool did not let go easily.

I've been messing around with transfers this summer, but in the end I stayed.

Liverpool are not as kind as some clubs, repeatedly letting go of their captain and becoming a laughing stock.

Coutinho has already been informed.

Otherwise, let Barcelona prepare a transfer fee of 150 million euros, or don't talk about it!

Therefore, even if Coutinho had a conflict with the club in the summer, the club still insisted on his attitude.

In the end, Barcelona did not succeed.

Barcelona turned to Borussia Dortmund and signed Dembele, which also made up for the loss of Neymar's departure.

Their expectations for Coutinho have also come to an end a bit.

Seeing that Barca's interest waned, Coutinho wilted.

The Brazilian genius who stayed at Liverpool reined in his temperament and played seriously.

He also knows very well that if he wants to fight for the future, he must ensure his form.

So at this stage, Liverpool is strong and strong!

Manchester United, on the other hand, fell into a goal drought and struggled to score in many games.

And after the international break, the form was up and down.

In this game, Manchester United is unpredictable.

On the evening of 14 October, Anfield was brightly lit.

Countless Reds fans gathered outside the stadium in anticipation of the arrival of the team bus.

Soon, the bus drove into the square outside the stadium.

Countless fans applauded and cheered!

It seems that their team has won this national derby!

A few minutes later, the Manchester United bus pulled in, and they were booed the loudest of the season.

I can hear it clearly even through the window glass.

Mourinho pouted.

This voice is okay, more powerful than Manchester City.

It's good, it's good.

Come on Liverpool, let's fight!

See who's worthy of the real red!
