Chapter 0673, the old people meet
The stadium erupted in cheers, and countless fans gave their applause to Manchester United, who had completed the reversal of the game.
Even Alan Shearer in the live broadcast room sighed with a smile: "It's really not reversed, it's not Manchester United." ”
Carragher next to him muttered: "This sentence is obviously praising us Liverpool." ”
Alan Shiler glanced at him: "Forget it, now the 'Istanbul Miracle' has been overshadowed by the limelight of the 'Wonderful Night in Kiev'." ”
Carragher was speechless.
After a long time, he muttered angrily: "Isn't there a xia in Manchester United?" Cut. ”
That's right.
At this time, on the sidelines of the pitch, although the game was won, Mourinho was not particularly happy.
Because they just won another championship trophy, but it still didn't go so well.
When shaking hands with Simeone after the game, Simeone said something meaningful.
"I really envy you to have a superstar like Xia."
This left Mourinho frowning.
There is no problem at all, because this game is Xia Xing's pass and shot, and finally lock up the win.
Before the game, Pogba and Xia Xing rotated in the first and second halves to organize the attack.
But Pogba was far behind in the first half.
Compared with Atletico Madrid, who are fiercely contested, Pogba's body does not even have an advantage, and his technical characteristics cannot be played.
The first half was a small loss of 0-1, all on the basis of Xia Xing and De Gea's wonderful defense, if not, more goals conceded.
In the second half, Xia Xing went up, and the situation suddenly opened up.
One pass and one shot was just the epitome of an excellent second half, and if it wasn't for Oblak's brilliant save, I'm afraid Atletico would have conceded more goals.
Now Manchester United, Xia Xing is indeed the only one.
Without him, the team would have really collapsed.
This situation has to change......
In the following period, Mourinho summoned his coaching staff to think seriously about countermeasures.
Try different combinations on the training ground.
For example, Herrera, Juan Mata and Jesse Lingard have different combinations up front.
But even if two people are sent, the effect is not as obvious as that of a summer trip.
Pogba has talent and can often give his genius, but the blow at the crucial moment is also eye-catching.
In particular, his performance in the French team is absolutely world-class.
But it's a shame he didn't bring that form to the club.
In the last two games, he has played poorly.
This is also a big headache for Mourinho.
He really has the heart to train Pogba well, but Pogba is embarrassed to reuse.
Especially in this UEFA Super Cup match, the team's performance in the first and second halves was decided.
In the coming period, Mourinho will risk making mistakes and create as many attacking combinations and ways as possible.
In the second round of the Premier League on August 19, Manchester United played away to Brighton.
On the court, Xia Xing met an old friend.
Knokite.
Friends who used to have a good relationship at Leicester City, this game met again.
"Xia, I haven't congratulated you in person on winning the six-crown honor, you are awesome! I knew when I was at Leicester that you were going to be a superstar. ”
"Man, you were great last season as well, and I've been following you."
The two brothers hugged tightly, and the old people met and felt very cordial.
Friendship is one thing, fighting is another.
As soon as the game began, the battle was filled with the smell of gunpowder.
In this game, Mourinho still arranged Pogba and Xia Xing to organize the attack in two halves respectively.
The result was the same as in the UEFA Super Cup.
No, it's not the same, because they weren't lucky enough to win this time.
In the first half, Pogba was very active in the front, and the continuous forward attack did pose a great threat to Brighton.
However, Pogba's technical characteristics are single, and as long as there are people who are firmly watching and interfering, Pogba's threat is reduced by half.
Compared with Xia Xing, Pogba's passing and shooting are also good, and his physical fitness is also strong, but he really lacks the ability to get rid of people in a small area.
That's a lot of trouble.
In the 27th minute of the game, after a pass on the side, Brighton's right winger Konoket burst into the penalty area and shot low!
The ball goes into the net!
1 to 0!
Brighton score first!
In the 35th minute of the game, it was Conokett's cross again, and he accurately found the center Glenn Murray, who hit the goal with a header!
The ball is in the net again!
2 to 0!
In first-half stoppage time, Conokette took a corner into the United penalty area.
In the midst of the chaos, Gross stabs into the net!
3 to 0!
At this time, the Yuntong Community Stadium was full of cheers!
They are three goals clear of Manchester United at home!
It's so cool!
At this time, Mourinho's face on the side of the pitch was pale!
What's special is that at half-time three goals down!
And the opponent is not a giant team yet!
Fxxk!
At half-time, Mourinho made a decisive substitution.
Romelu Lukaku, Alexis Sanchez and Eric Bailly are out!
Marcus Rashford, Jesse Lingard and Phil Jones come off the bench!
Three substitutions were directly used up in half a game, and Mourinho was in a bad mood, which can be imagined.
And the exchange of positions between Xia Xing and Pogba, needless to say, has been arranged before the game.
At the start of the second half, United were a little dumbfounded.
Brighton have changed formations!
From 4-4-2 in the first half, to 5-4-1 now!
Although it is only a positional adjustment, the overall tactical play has changed!
They're starting to set up buses!
This is a big headache for Manchester United's players.
After three goals, the opponent also put the bus, and it was troublesome.
Mourinho on the sidelines of the pitch also exhaled hard, and even had a trace of despair in his heart.
The chances of winning this game are too slim.
As a master of bus tactics, Mourinho is well aware of the essence and power of this tactic.
This is the best way to defeat the strong with the weak.
Especially after a one-goal lead, it is even more important to prevent the opponent from killing to win.
And now, the opponent has a three-goal lead.
Even with the addition of the fault tolerance, they are nine out of ten.
Not to mention the Champions League final and the Premier League first round against Liverpool just past, because that was Jurgen Klopp's team.
Jurgen Klopp is aggressive in attack, so he opens up and closes.
If Klopp is reluctant after taking a three-goal lead, it is estimated that Manchester United's Champions League title will be useless!
Now, trouble......
Pogba retreated to defend and he was not very happy.
But there is nothing to say.
After all, the performance just now made him embarrassed to continue to stay in front.
Now see what you can do?
Cut!
For Xia Xing, this second half was too difficult.
In a 0-3 unfavorable situation, it is too difficult to score goals when the opponent retreats so resolutely.
However, Xia Xing's dictionary definitely did not give up two words.
Marcus Rashford, who came on as a substitute, was up front, and Jesse Lingard was on the right, and the two were very aggressive.
Of the players who have renewed their contracts this season, Marcus Rashford is definitely the most aggressive.
This also has something to do with the exemplary power of his idol Xia Xing.
After a lot of hard work in the second half, Manchester United's chance finally came...... (End of chapter)
