Mid Lane King.

He is also the king of the middle of international football.

This title is quite large.

But when Alan Shearer said this, the vast majority of fans agreed.

The current Xia Xing deserves this title.

Let's not talk about Xia Xing's strong offense and defense for the time being, but look at this game.

Just after losing, Xia Xing broke the ball on the left side and scored a goal on his own to boost the team's morale.

After Xia Xing assisted on the right side, a long pass accurately found Greenwood and helped his teammates equalize.

And now, Xia Xing shot again in the middle and almost overtook the score.

To say that such an excellent ability, the characteristics of any position on the left, center and right, and the strength of both offense and defense, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is the king of midfield.

Under the thunderous applause of the audience, the Manchester United players were in a good mood.

They went from frustrated to high in just 20 minutes.

2-2, tenacious equalizer.

They were looking forward to the second half.

Rome, on the other hand, is a bit lost.

Morale is deflated, and it will not be easy to recover.

Fonseca on the side of the pitch frowned.

When the players came off the pitch, he patted the players on the shoulders on the sidelines and touched the heads of several young players as a sign of encouragement.

He has a lot to do at this halftime......

On the other hand, on Manchester United's side, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is smiling.

I didn't take the lead, but it was great to score two goals in a row.

Especially when it was relatively low at the beginning, it is already great.

When Xia Xing came off the field, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer gratefully hugged his captain.

"Xia, you're awesome!"

Xia Xing smiled slightly: "Let's work hard enough, continue to fight for 45 minutes according to this momentum, we will win!" ”

Pei Lan punched Xia Xing hard: "I really like you kid, hahahaha!" ”

Xia Xing also smiled.

Although the last shot failed to break the net, it was enough to be able to beat morale.

Xia Xing was full of confidence in the second half.

In the second half, the sides changed again, and United kicked off first.

Mason Greenwood and Marcus Rashford pass through midfield and the ball is handed to James.

However, James just touched the ball when he was knocked down by his opponent!

It's Spinazzola's tackle!

The referee's whistle blows!

Foul!

Spinazzola pulled James up in a friendly way, but the referee didn't give him a card.

After all, the second half had just begun, and it wasn't a malicious foul.

But then, Roma's defensive strength came up significantly.

Three minutes later, Marcus Rashford accelerated with the ball and was also brought down by Roma full-back Kolarov.

This defense made Rashford fall to the ground.

Xia Xing was very dissatisfied, and stepped forward to push Kolarov directly!

"Do you think it's still a Manchester derby? It has to be so ruthless! ”

Kolarov knew that he was at the wrong and did not fight back.

Mkhitaryan and several other players next to him kicked off the summer trip.

Speaking of which, Xia Xing has a very good relationship with Rome.

In more than one previous encounter, Xia Xing not only admired his opponent's football skills, but also received applause from the home fans of the Stadio Olimpico in Rome for his fair play.

Coupled with Mkhitaryan's good relations, it is unlikely that the two sides will have much conflict.

That said, Roma's defensive hardness has not diminished.

It's Roma's usual madness, just like Liverpool in the Premier League.

Sharp in attack, fierce in defense, wide open and close.

In the face of such adjustments by the opponent, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer hastened to remind his players to pay attention to protecting themselves.

At this time, in a private room in the stadium, the former Roman prince Totti was in the middle of it.

With him, there is also De Rossi.

Both men were former Roma heroes and now have their eyes on the pitch and watch the game unfold.

Watching the Roma players on the field try their best to defend, the two carefully observed the situation on the field.

"Danielle, do you think we can win today?" Totti asked in a low voice.

De Rossi frowned: "Francesco, don't throw this problem at me. ”

"Oh, listen to you, don't you have faith in us?"

"No, I'm confident in us, I'm just a little worried."

"Worried about Manchester United?"

"I'm not worried about Manchester United, but I'm worried about Xia."

"Oh, that's it. Indeed, he is a superstar who can change the game. ”

"It's a pity we don't."

"Not now, but there were."

The two looked at each other and smiled.

Then they were all silent again.

In that once passionate red era, there was Totti, one of the best attackers in the world, and the Roman prince protected the city of Rome.

There's the loyal De Rossi, arguably arguably the best B2B star of his time.

And now Rome no longer has the kind of superstar who can change the situation.

To be able to reach the semi-finals of the Europa League is already a big breakthrough.

The Roma players on the pitch are working very hard, especially defensively, which has almost made Manchester United suffer.

Manchester United's front court is full of technical players, Rashford, Greenwood, James, fast dribbling is good, but this kind of player is also more brittle and prone to injury.

In the face of Roma's ferocious pressing, they began to be a little afraid, and they unconsciously became cautious with the ball.

In doing so, Roma sacrificed their own attack and gave Manchester United's offensive a pause.

Phelan on the side of the pitch kicked the turf hard: "Those guys, do you want to consume the penalty shootout?" ”

Carrick also frowned: "Our players must not be injured, otherwise the final will not be good." ”

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer exhaled softly.

Speaking of the finals, this semi-final is very hard, and I don't know what the final result will be.

Now the two sides are in a stalemate, and there are few good opportunities.

Mkhitaryan had a chance to dribble forward but was denied by Nemanja Matic's return tackle.

With Roma's ferocious defence, they didn't have much to support Mkhitaryan and the counter-attack was a missed opportunity.

The same is true for Manchester United, where the midfield coordination is frequently interrupted, and the three strikers are tormented enough by the opponent to even have a shot on goal that is within the range of the goal during this period.

The clock was ticking, and it was 80 minutes.

Both sides began to make substitutions.

Roma made three changes in one go, while Manchester United also used up two substitutions.

Mason Greenwood and James were substituted, with Odion Ighalo and Jesse Lingard coming off the bench.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is still aggressive in attack and will be hoping to create a goalscoring opportunity in the final moments.

Their technical characteristics are completely different from the previous two.

Odion Ighalo burst into the box and as a central striker, he was stronger and more experienced than Mason Greenwood.

Jesse Lingard also runs wide on the right, he's not as fast as James and doesn't have as much skill at his feet, but he's powerful and good on the run, stirring up the storm up front.

After the two came on the pitch, United's attack quickly changed...... (End of chapter)
