Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang scored a late equaliser.

In the three minutes of stoppage time, neither side could find the back of the net again.

In the end, the match ended 2-2.

A draw that left Borussia Dortmund not so satisfied.

But one point is better than nothing.

The other match, which was played the next day, also ended in a draw.

Besiktas met a stubborn resistance from Sporting on the road and were forced to score 1-1 by their opponents.

B Fei's midfield equalizer goal prevented the Turkish giants from qualifying early.

After the end of the fifth round, there was no change in the standings of the standings.

Manchester United are top of the table with 11 points, followed by Besiktas with seven, Borussia Dortmund with six and Sporting with one.

Manchester United also drew with Besiktas, and Manchester United finished top of the group ahead of schedule.

Besiktas and Borussia Dortmund will need to continue to fight for a second place in the group.

I thought that Sporting Portugal was a fish belly, but I didn't expect a stubborn draw to make Besiktas, who was about to qualify, fall behind.

Countless Dortmund fans poured into Sporting Club's official website to make a message of gratitude.

Thanks to them for helping him stop his opponent.

It would have been better if we could still lose to Dortmund in the last game.

Well, it's a beautiful idea......

With a win over Borussia Dortmund on 22 November, United's packed schedule continues.

On November 25, Manchester United once again ushered in the home game, the thirteenth round of the Premier League, playing promoted Brighton.

After being promoted to the Premier League, Brighton's goal is clear, which is to honestly avoid relegation.

They are a world away from Newcastle, which have also been successfully upgraded.

One is looking forward to creating miracles, and the other wants to be down-to-earth.

They lined up in a 4-4-1-1 formation for this game.

In the face of the mighty Manchester United, although they defended to the core, they did not completely give up attacking.

Strong center Glenn Murray is their bridgehead and hope.

There is also the shadow striker Gross behind him, who has good passing and control, and his dribbling and power are also excellent.

The two are up front, just hoping that when United make mistakes, they will be able to look for opportunities to counter-attack.

And in the backfield, even if there are no particularly big-name stars, their overall defense is still good.

At the start of the game, United were bombarded but struggled to find the back of the net.

It wasn't until the 41st minute that United scored a goal through Marcus Rashford.

But the referee's whistle blew and it was offside.

Manchester United were still unable to find the back of the net.

In the second half, United sent a number of attacking players to attack Brighton's defence.

But even so, their forward line missed consecutive shots.

It's not that the opposition goalkeeper is outstanding, and Manchester United's forward group is a bit unable to find a sense of goal.

It wasn't until the 78th minute of the match that the score changed.

Manchester United passed in the midfield, Fellaini's pass was a little less powerful and was cut off by the opposing defender!

Don't hesitate to play the ball fast!

The ball goes straight to Shadow Striker Gross!

Gross catches the ball and accelerates towards the right wing!

However, he was not in too much of a hurry to move forward, just waiting.

Wait for center Murray to be in place!

Three seconds later, Gross made a quick kick!

The ball goes straight to the front!

Murray's anti-offside success!

He went it alone!

Push the far corner of the goal!

De Gea went down to save and the ball was blocked by him!

Valencia, who is chasing back, is in place, and the long pass is decisively cleared!

The ball is back in the Brighton half!

Xia Xing received the ball steadily!

This position was not close to him, but Xia Xing sprinted quickly and took advantage of his body to get this opportunity!

Xia Xing's large-scale running makes him omnipresent in the midfield position!

Stop the ball on your chest, wipe your right foot, and shake off the defense in two movements!

Shoot directly with your left foot!

With a distance of about 35 meters from the goal, this shot is extremely difficult!

However, the opposing goalkeeper did not react at all!

Quite a wonderful shot!

Because it's sudden, the angle isn't too tricky!

But despite this, he still caught his opponent off guard!

The ball hits the net!

1 to 0!

Manchester United finally opened the scoring!

Mourinho on the sidelines let out a long breath.

It's not easy......

It's so hard to score a goal......

In the end, Manchester United won at home with this goal and continued to maintain their league lead.

Four days later, United's next league team-mate is back.

In the 14th round of the Premier League, away to Watford.

Inside the Vicarage Road stadium, United are in trouble again.

As a team that has been relegated every year, Watford is very self-aware of their own strength.

When you encounter a weak team, you will work hard, and when you encounter a strong team, you will get up.

This is their standard operation.

Against a strong Manchester United, they don't care about the face of their home team.

5-4-1 formation, proper defensive counter-attack.

However, they are not without any attack power.

This summer, they poached a 20-year-old youngster from Brazil, Richarisson.

The Brazilian talent, who was a good passer, a brilliant header and a first-class dribble, quickly became Watford's new thigh.

So far this season, he has contributed four goals and four assists, and has been involved in more than half of the team's goals.

That's a pretty good result.

In this game, he was pushed up front, and he also hoped to be able to seek a counter-attacking opportunity.

Soon, they received a miraculous effect.

Just into the ninth minute, Watford played a quick counter-attack.

It was also the end of Manchester United's attack, and the midfield was not firmly established, and Richarlison rushed up with the ball!

On the left flank, he shook off Blind who was chasing back!

Cut inward to the right and sprint straight again!

A right angle, wonderful!

In the box, kick up and shoot low!

The ball goes straight into the near corner of the goal!

1 to 0!

Watford opener!

At Vicarage Road, the Premier League Hornets take the lead!

And ahead of Manchester United!

This gives their players a lot of excitement!

In the next period of time, they fought with great momentum in the middle and back!

Manchester United's successive attacks were interrupted by their defense!

Xia Xing passes Rooney diagonally, Rooney shoots low with his feet!

The ball was a little slower and was blocked by a defender......

Valencia, who assists from the right side, sends a low cross!

Lukaku in the middle of the ball with a header!

This time the attack was outrageous......

Pogba went straight to Anthony Martial, and Martial rushed into the penalty area with the ball, and there was a chance!

Just about to shoot with his feet, he was knocked out by the opposing central defender.

Reasonable collision, no problem......

Successive onslaughts were fruitless, and United were in trouble for this game.

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

Perrin, who was standing on the sidelines of the pitch, sighed in a low voice: "We were really unlucky today, especially the forward line. There are so many chances, what a bad shot......"

Mourinho's face was expressionless, and he spat out a sentence in a low voice.

“Need a new striker！”
