Rooney has been plagued by injuries this season and has only played a handful of games.

But even so, he still brings a lot to the team.

The impact of the dressing room aside, the crucial goal also helped United pick up a lot of points.

He started today and played a significant role up front.

With a goal in hand, the United players relaxed a little.

There was no need to be under pressure, after all, the league points lead by double digits, so you can play more easily.

However, he was just relaxed and quickly conceded the goal.

Just eight minutes after Wayne Rooney's goal, Swansea scored in the chaos thanks to a corner.

1-1, Swansea equalised.

The goal was an overall mistake by the United defence, and a leak caused the goal to be conceded.

And this corner, too, there was a problem with Manchester United's wide defense.

This goal is not unjust.

The game continued, and the two sides still fought fiercely.

Swansea, who equalised, saw hope even more, and if they could get three points, they could temporarily beat Huddersfield Town out of the relegation zone, which would definitely be a morale-boosting victory for them.

Especially the win against Manchester United is a great confidence for the next game.

You must know that there are not many teams this season who have been able to get out of Manchester United's home stadium completely, let alone win, and there are not many draws.

In the 44th minute of the first half, Swansea launched another onslaught.

The continuous passing in the midfield, although not particularly accurate, but the ball stumbled into the penalty area.

A succession of mistakes by three of Manchester United's defenders put the team in trouble!

Romero struggled to save, but couldn't stop his opponent's shot!

The ball is in!

2 to 1!

Swansea really have the lead!

At Old Trafford, Swansea players celebrate!

The Swansea fans in the stands were also excited!

It was a fantastic first half!

The referee blew the whistle for the end of the first half, and the Swansea players were still in ecstasy.

Mourinho, who was on the sidelines, frowned, didn't say anything, turned and walked back to the dressing room.

The first half was a poor game, there's no doubt about that.

Mourinho, who was the first to enter the dressing room, looked at the tactical board and crossed his shoulders in thought.

He pressed his anger and tried to keep himself from showing it to the players for a while.

Two minutes later, the players were all back and Mourinho's expression was calm.

'Boys, we made some mistakes in the first half and there were a couple of positions that gave the opposition a lot of space, so I'll talk to you about that.

The score was behind in the first half, and it was still behind such a weak team, and the Manchester United players thought that Mourinho would be angry and angry, but he didn't, and still patiently explained to everyone.

Mata, who was sitting on the left, was even a little distracted.

Is this the same Mourinho I knew when I was at Chelsea?

Jose Mourinho has changed a lot over time and is no longer the boss with the joy on his face from his Chelsea days.

Listening to Mourinho's teachings, the players ran on the pitch and the second half continued.

Although I listened to a lot of guidance on the game at halftime and improved my mental concentration of the game, the second half was still a big problem.

Especially defensively.

With several of their main defensive players out injured, Manchester United's defence has been in a lot of trouble.

In particular, the absence of Nemanja Matic and Marouane Fellaini has repeatedly broken through Manchester United's central defence.

And the opponent is still a team of Swansea's level.

Xia Xing had no choice but to pull back to defend, but as a result, Manchester United's attack began to struggle again.

In the 60th minute of the second half, Mourinho replaced vice-captain Carrick and replaced McTominay, allowing him to partner with Xia Xing in the back.

In this way, it is slightly better.

However, Xia Xing still couldn't leave the defensive position.

After the absence of Ashley Young and Valencia, the overall attack and defense of the wings have dropped a notch.

Both full-backs were good both offensively and defensively, and the players who replaced them were not up to their level.

In the 78th minute of the game, Xia Xing sent a long pass again to find Rooney.

It was one of the few attacking opportunities that United had up front today.

Rooney's physical decline was serious, and he was unable to dribble the ball to create Longtan, so he finally chose to wait with the ball with his back.

Lingard cuts forward quickly, Rooney passes back!

Jesse Lingard shoots with his feet!

The ball hits the net!

2 to 2!

Manchester United finally equalised!

Wonderful fit!

Seeing this goal, Mourinho on the sidelines of the stadium only slightly stretched his brows.

It's finally equalized, which is reasonable on the face.

With about ten minutes left before the end of the game, Swansea were desperate.

For them, there is definitely hope for three points in this game.

Those three points will probably be the decisive three for them.

So they made a desperate bet and pounced with all their might, hoping to do a miracle.

Not to mention, they did create two dangerous shots in the end.

A header from a free-kick and a long-range blast.

All of them were in the woodwork, but none of them were converted into goals.

Sergio Romero's brilliant save made Swansea's shot come to naught.

In the end, the score of the game was fixed at 2-2.

On the other pitch, Manchester City and Huddersfield Town also ended 2-2.

As a result, the gap between the two giants remains at 12 points, and a draw for Manchester United will not affect the lead.

Huddersfield Town also picked up a point, with Swansea still sitting behind them and still struggling in the relegation zone.

However, Mourinho does not care about the relegation situation, he is most concerned about the situation of Manchester City.

The day after the game, the whole United squad had a day off.

Most of the coaching staff were also on holiday, with only him and Perrin, who volunteered to stay with him, watching the footage of yesterday's Manchester City game in the tactical training room.

Facing Huddersfield, Manchester City have also been affected by some FIFA viruses.

Like Manchester United, a number of substitutes were fielded.

However, they still played aggressively, and if it weren't for the unlucky three hits to the post in the game, the game would have been a solid win.

The referee blew the whistle to end the game, and Perrin also turned off the screen and looked back at Mourinho.

'Even if it's just a substitute, Manchester City are playing well.'

'Yes, it's good, if you talk about the depth of the bench, we're definitely not as good as Manchester City, they have a really good squad.

"They fielded a full bench squad for this game, on the one hand, to take into account the impact of the FIFA virus, and on the other hand, to prepare for the next three Manchester derbys."

"I can see that this guy from Pep Guardiola is going to fight with us. They don't have any other title chances left this season, only the Champions League stage remains, so these two Champions League quarter-finals are in big trouble and definitely more difficult than the previous derby. ”

"They have a thick lineup, but our defense line is full of wounds, what should we do?"

Looking at Perrin's frowning appearance, Mourinho smiled slightly.

"Since our defensive line is full of wounds, then in the next two games, we will play against Manchester City!" (End of chapter)
