With the attention of fans all over the world, this much-anticipated Manchester derby in the Champions League has officially begun!

The referee's whistle blows, and Manchester City kicks off in the middle circle!

Sergio Aguero and Leroy Sane pass each other and the ball soon finds its way to Raheem Sterling in front!

As City's absolute fast horse, Raheem Sterling sprints at high speed along the right flank!

Even the back Xia Xing couldn't fill the left side at the first time, so he could only retreat quickly to prevent him from rushing into the penalty area!

Left wing-back Luke Shaw was on his heels.

He didn't take it lightly.

In this case, any reckless move could cause big problems for the team.

Especially against a fast horse like Raheem Sterling.

After a few feints in a row, Sterling failed to get past his team-mate.

In the end, he chose to knock back, and then accelerated into the penalty area!

Waiting for the answer!

However, Luke Shaw followed him closely and did not let him have a chance to catch the ball.

De Bruyne, who received Sterling's pass, was smart and he didn't make a one-two with Sterling.

He curled a cross and the ball flew exactly to Sane at the far end!

Sergio Aguero in the middle feints, and Sane at the far end is the real point of attack!

Sane accelerated to sprint, but Manchester United right-back Darmian was already in place!

Make a kick first and poke the ball lightly!

It's a bit dangerous this time, after all, it's poking the ball towards the goal.

But it's based on a lot of trust in your teammates!

De Gea was ready, and in the face of Darmian's pass, he was decisive to clear the ball!

The ball flies forward!

Find Sanchez in front!

At this moment, Manchester United's front suddenly preceded!

The speed was so fast that Manchester City was a little unexpected!

Especially led by Xia Xing, just now he was defending the second point on the penalty line, and now he has quickly rushed to the center circle!

And his position is the offensive and defensive metronome of the whole team!

The whole team quickly stepped forward!

Even Herrera went up!

In this way, Manchester United even threw away two defensive midfield positions!

Leaving no way back!

The pounce is very resolute!

This took the Manchester City players by surprise!

Manchester United has never played like this before!

They retreated quickly, but United's offensive was already up!

City only had three defenders left today, and Kyle Walker had an assist in the attacking phase!

Now there are only Kompany, Otamendi and Fernandinho left behind!

For Manchester United, there are Romelu Lukaku, Alexis Sanchez and Marcus Rashford!

Although Manchester City's players quickly returned to defense, Manchester United's Xia Xing, Pogba, and Herrera were also making full swoops!

Manchester City's defence is in danger!

Sanchez catches the ball and accelerates along the right flank!

Centre-back Otamendi stood firmly, staring at Lukaku as he stepped forward, while waiting for his teammates to support him!

Midfielder Fernandinho quickly pulled the side and blocked the direction of Sanchez's rush into the penalty area!

Kyle Walker quickly chased back, he was extremely fast, and he had already caught up with Sanchez!

At this time, Sanchez did not be alone, but knocked steadily and looked for Lukaku!

Then make a quick sprint yourself and fight into the penalty area!

Kyle Walker follows closely!

The pass was a bit away from goal and Lukaku dropped back to catch it.

Although the threat is smaller, it is to ensure that the opposition defender does not break the ball.

After all, Manchester United is not inferior in numbers, and there is still time to organize.

Romelu Lukaku has the ball with his back to him, and behind him is Otamendi, who is close to him.

He didn't hesitate to knock again!

Marcus Rashford catches up and catches the ball into the box!

However, Manchester City captain Vincent Kompany is already ready to defend the near post!

Marcus Rashford has no room to shoot!

Even a pass to Lukaku is unlikely because Otamendi has already locked Lukaku in the lock!

Is United's attack coming to an end?

When pigs fly!

Rashford continued to walk towards the bottom line and suddenly returned the pass on the bottom line!

It's an inverted triangle pass!

The ball didn't find Lukaku in the middle and Sanchez at the far end, but went to the top of the box!

A Manchester United player has rushed up!

It's a summer trip!

Seeing that Xia Xing received the ball, the fans in the audience instantly cheered!

It's an unparalleled amount of excitement, anticipation and trust!

At this moment, even Alan Shearer in the live broadcast room was excited!

"When exactly did Xia rush to the top of the arc of the penalty area?

"His speed is incredible!

"The ball is at his feet!

"Marcus Rashford has found his idol accurately!

"Xia didn't stop the ball and shot straight at the goal!

"The ball is close to the ground and fast into the bottom right corner of the goal!

"Edson didn't react!

"It's a shot with great power, speed and angle!

"Wonderful!

"Just three minutes into the game, Manchester United scored first!

'The Red Devils were in great shape today!

"Let's take a look at the video replay again -

"Manchester City's attack was very sharp, but in the end it was destroyed by Manchester United.

"A kick cleared the ball to find Sanchez, Manchester United's counter-attack started,

"At this time, the midfielders of both sides were still in the United half,

"After the switch between attack and defense, they all ran to the Manchester City half for the first time.

"And with the simultaneous start, Xia outpaced everyone!

"He's such a superman on the pitch!

"It was with such extraordinary speed that he got this shot!

"When the Manchester City players around him were still three or five metres away,

"Xia is already up and shooting!

"Manchester United started with a wonderful counter-attack!

"It was a brilliant goal!"

The Manchester United fans in the stands cheered and enjoyed the goal.

It's so cool to watch.

Although the previous Manchester derby was won in the end, the game process looked quite tangled.

After all, the opponent has been pressing Manchester United to play, and the fans are always worried.

Well, now the team is leading the game from the start!

And then it's even more fun!

With a ball in hand, let's see how you guys are playing at Manchester City!

How to play?

Of course, the onslaught continued.

Conceding a goal at the start was really not what Guardiola expected.

Bad luck!

Guardiola squeezed the water bottle in his hand hard.

But he didn't panic.

After all, the game has just begun, and there is still time.

Next, Manchester United continued to attack with all their might.

This time they were playing on the left flank.

The ball was passed to David Silva, and the Spanish midfielder passed diagonally to Sane before moving quickly down the middle.

Sane sprints with the ball into the Manchester United penalty area!

Inverted triangle pass, find David Silva in front of the penalty area!

This pass was similar to the way Manchester United had just scored!

But their wishful thinking failed.

Before David Silva received the ball, Xia Xing made a kick first and cut the ball off!

A long pass, accurately find the fast Malashford in front!

Marcus Rashford sprints quickly and shoots from the edge of the City penalty area!

The ball grazing the post and flying out of the bottom line!

Manchester United almost extended their lead! (End of chapter)
