In his first official game at Manchester United, he scored a hat-trick.

It's like a dream.

Sanchez was excited!

Even though he is silent and cold on weekdays, he is still smiling at this time!

It's amazing!

At this moment, he admired Xia Xing and threw himself to the ground!

Such a good teammate is what I pursue!

I made the right decision to join Manchester United!

Hug Xia Xing vigorously and enjoy the applause and cheers at Old Trafford!

It's amazing!

The first half was over with United leading 3-0.

At half-time, Jose Mourinho praised the performance of the whole team.

Special praise was given to Sanchez.

This puts Sanchez in a great mood.

But soon he became a little depressed.

Because Xia Xing was replaced.

Xia Xing had long expected that he would be replaced, after all, it was just an ordinary cup match.

But Sanchez was a little worried.

Without Xia Xing, who else will pass the ball to himself?

You must know that when you were at Arsenal, there was an Ozil.

Even though that guy is a special dog, he is really good at passing.

Forget it, without Xia Xing present, I'll do it alone!

As soon as the second half began, Sanchez began to go it alone.

Several breakthroughs in a row have posed a great threat.

But the goal conversion rate is low.

It wasn't until the 74th minute that he created a goal.

It was after the shot was saved by goalkeeper Carson that Anthony Martial fired into the back of the net.

4-0, Manchester United scored another goal.

And until the end of the game, Sanchez was unable to expand his personal goal statistics.

In the end, Manchester United won a cup game with a 4-0 thrashing of Derby County.

That night, Xia Xing invited Nugent to stay at home, and the two talked all night.

Talking about the past of Leicester City, the two couldn't help but laugh.

Talking about the current predicament of Leicester City, the two sighed.

But that's football, that's life.

There will always be ups and downs, and no one will always be smooth.

"You see each other often, and the next time you see those old guys, say hello for me, and say that I miss them very much."

"No problem!"

The taxi carrying Nugent drove away, and Xia Xing stood outside the door with some sighs.

The past years have been really wonderful.

Even if he returns to Manchester United now and has excellent treatment, those days when he used to work together with his bare hands are still nostalgic.

Nugent was right, Xia Xing did often meet with Blue Fox's old friends.

For example, in a few days, they will meet again.

The journey continues after winning the FA Cup on 6 January and moving on to the next round.

On 10 January, Manchester United returned to the EFL Cup.

The opponent of the two-legged semi-final is none other than Leicester City.

Leicester have had a tumultuous season, but they are on the right track after the change of manager.

The league is already in the upper middle of the table and they are fighting for a European place.

However, for them, if they want to fight for the Champions League opportunity, they can only compete on the domestic cup stage.

The FA Cup is all out, and the League Cup is even better.

Reaching the semi-finals of the Carabao Cup this season has been largely instrumental to Riyad Mahrez.

In the current Leicester City squad, Riyad Mahrez and Vardy are the absolute heart of the attack.

The wonderful cooperation of the two complements each other.

Vardy's super fast horse attributes, sharp counter-attack; Riyad Mahrez has top-notch dribbling talent and is good at passing.

More than half of Leicester's goals this season have been related to these two.

But it's also a pity that Leicester City only have these two super attackers.

Xia Xing left, Van Persie left, and Drinkwater left......

The core attacking players of the former five-time champions are gone, and it is not easy for Leicester City to not return to the ranks of the relegation team.

Manchester United were a guest at the King Power Stadium and they were once again applauded by the home fans.

However, everyone knows very well that this applause is still dominated by Xia Xing.

As the former third captain of Leicester City, the hero of the rush, and the core of the five-time champion, Xia Xing has not been in Leicester City for a long time, but he has become a city hero.

Three years, one step at a time, to help Leicester City fans achieve their dreams.

I can't even dream of it.

It's so rare to be able to have this kind of courtesy when you go back to your old club.

Looking at the affection of Leicester City's former teammates on the field for Xia Xing, Sanchez, who was warming up on the side, was very envious.

That's great.

I wonder if I'll be able to get this treatment when I return to the Emirates Stadium one day?

Maybe, as long as you don't get booed, it's already good......

Both sides warmed up with all their might, returned to the locker room to listen to the coach's final instructions, and quickly ran back to the court.

The referee's whistle blows, and the game begins!

From the first minute, Leicester City clearly took the initiative!

For Manchester United, this is just one of their many title races, even the most unremarkable.

Whether it's the league or the Champions League, the title is heavyweight.

Even the FA Cup is more significant than the League Cup.

But for Leicester City, this FA Cup is their top title.

Gotta give it your all!

Leicester City, who were on full control, created four shots on goal in the first ten minutes!

Romero's high and low block, try to keep the goal open!

Manchester United is still in rotation for this game and did not send all the main players.

In particular, main players such as Lukaku and Pogba are still sitting on the bench.

Mourinho has long told his players that even if the domestic cup competition is rushed to the end, he will not make too many changes to the lineup.

It's still about the substitutions and young players who usually don't play much.

This is the promise that the Portuguese gave to the players.

So on the field today, except for Xia Xing and Sanchez, the two absolute main players, the others are substitutes and rotation players.

So in the face of Leicester City's onslaught, Manchester United is also under a lot of pressure.

Mourinho is not in a hurry, though, as he had already anticipated the situation.

So in this game, Manchester United focused on defending steadily, and there was no rush to counterattack.

Especially Xia Xing, who retreated to the penalty area to organize defense.

In this away game, Mourinho could even settle for a draw.

After all, the next home game is more certain.

And at the King Power Stadium, if Leicester City can't attack for a long time, they will be more anxious and will also show their flaws.

When the time comes, rely on the individual ability of the players to seek a quick counterattack and kill with one blow.

This is Mourinho's tactical vision.

In the end, the match turned out exactly as he expected.

In the first half, both sides failed to score, and in the second half, Leicester City really played more and more urgently, and there were more and more holes in the back.

In the 75th minute of the game, Xia Xing suddenly stepped forward and directly hit Mahrez with the ball!

The ball is converted, Manchester United's counterattack is coming!

Xia Xing did not hesitate and rushed to Leicester City half with the ball!

Use your speed and skill to shake off two defenders, 35 meters from goal, and blast your shot!

The ball blasts out of the net!

1 to 0!

Manchester United open the scoring!

The Manchester United players on the pitch hugged excitedly, but Xia Xing remained silent and did not celebrate.

Not far away, Vardy looked in the direction of his former teammate and sighed quietly.

That's amazing, you scored...... (End of chapter)
