On the sidelines, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer met Emery.

The two had some contact, but they didn't have much personal contact.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, in particular, knows more about Emery when he was in charge of Arsenal.

The Gunners were a mess before, and Arteta is not much better now.

There were even fans who posted during the Europa League semi-finals.

"How can Arsenal have a dragon like Unai Emery and Mikel Arteta?"

Despite the fans' ridicule, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer doesn't think so.

He felt Emery and Arteta had something.

Mikel Arteta is inexperienced, and if he is given time to grow, he may have a chance to lead Arsenal on the path of revival.

And Emery has proven his worth on many stages, Arsenal is only in a transition period, it is very difficult to lead, and it is not possible to throw all the pot on Emery's back.

So Solskjaer is well prepared for this game.

He has confidence, but it is also based on a good knowledge of Emery.

But he didn't expect that Emery was far more powerful than he knew.

In particular, his familiarity with Manchester United is not even inferior to that of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

After all, he is an opponent who has played against Manchester United many times.

The referee's whistle blows and the game begins.

United kicked off first in the first half.

The three strikers pass each other and then pass the ball to B Fei behind him, and then quickly sprint forward.

B Fei controlled the ball in the middle and passed back to Xia Xing.

Xia Xing knocked on Matic, and Matic passed to B Fee.

The three in the middle made a continuous pass coordination.

It was supposed to stabilize the situation, but B fee did not.

He went a little too far, just to find a chance for himself to move forward.

At this time, receiving the ball again, he suddenly turned around and accelerated, rushing towards the Yellow Submarine penalty area!

This fast attack is very sharp!

At this time, all three teammates are also waiting near the penalty area!

Entangle with opposing defenders defending them and look for opportunities!

Facing the goal, B Fei saw that there were no too good passing opportunities.

Just, do it yourself!

35 meters from the goal, shoot directly with your feet!

The ball slides out of the goal!

The angle and power are good, and the ball slides out of the goal!

Manchester United fans in the stands applauded!

Not bad!

B Fei was also quite happy to go back.

However, Xia Xing frowned slightly.

B fee, a little anxious.

Although the shot was good just now, goalkeeper Rulli was clearly in a stable position.

It looks like it's a sliding door, but it's actually under the control of the opponent.

Could it be that he didn't react and didn't make a save?

No!

It was Rulli who saw that the ball was missing, so he didn't make much of a move.

And this shot has no arc, and it will not change direction.

That's why Rulli is so relaxed.

If Fernandes had stopped a little bit and waited for the forward three to run, there might have been a better way to deal with it.

But it's okay, after all, it's just the beginning, and it's no problem to kick it yourself.

Next, Manchester United's onslaught continued.

B Fei shot wide from distance, and then the strikers started to come alive.

In the 7th minute of the game, B Fei did it again in the midfield, seeking support from Xia Xing.

Xia Xing caught the ball, took two steps, and stopped.

He still opted for passing.

After all, it has just started, and if you go up rashly, it is easy to be counterattacked by the opponent.

At that time, there was only one Matic, and B Fei was high-spirited today, and he was always in the front, and he didn't plan to defend back when he saw what it meant.

So Xia Xing played very cautiously.

The pass found Rashford in front of the left, and Rashford sprinted quickly with the ball.

B Fei in the middle ran to pick up, and Cavani in the box also leaned on his opponent.

Rashford has a lot of options.

But he still chose to do it himself.

Kick Shot!

The ball was punched out by goalkeeper Rulli with both fists!

Wonderful defense!

Three minutes later, United were back in attack.

This time it was right wing-back Aaron Wan-Bissaka who attacked.

Dribbling forward, all the way across the halfway line!

Knock B fee, B fee does not stop the diagonal pass, Wan-Bissaka catches the ball!

Wonderful two-over-one!

Mason Greenwood leans into the middle of the box to help Aaron Wan-Bissaka attract the main defence!

Aaron Wan-Bissaka kept pushing and crossed up and down the baseline!

Find Cavani!

Pau Torres leaps high and clears the ball out of the box early!

The 23-year-old centre-back is over 1.9 meters tall and is very good at headers!

United's third wave of attack came to an end.

But even so, their attack still won the applause of the fans in the stands!

Just play like this, and sooner or later you can score!

But Xia Xing smelled a hint of danger.

Manchester United's attack was fluid just now, but there were still problems.

Because all the coordination, the passing and the shooting, it was expected by the opponent.

All the defenses were very targeted.

In particular, the forward insertion of Wan-Bissaka was too smooth.

This was clearly premeditated.

They expected Aaron Wan-Bissaka to cross but Pau Torres in the middle was ready to jam Edinson Cavani.

And goalkeeper Rulli is also in a reasonable position, even if Pau Torres can't get the ball on the ball, but under his interference, Cavani's header will be intercepted by the second gate.

Yellow submarine's double insurance is no problem.

And now, Manchester United's attack is over, and the Yellow Submarine's attack is coming!

Pau Torres' header cleared the ball and fell to Capoue, who retreated from midfield.

B fee fast grab!

Capoue decisively returns the pass!

The ball is handed to another centre-back, Albiol!

As a top-class centre-back who has proven his quality at both Real Madrid and Napoli, Albiol has a solid style of play.

Marcus Rashford stepped up quickly to force his opponent to make mistakes.

But Albiol is faster with the ball!

A long pass to the left wing!

Find Terry Gros!

It was an interesting pass, and Carrick on the sidelines almost couldn't help but clap his hands.

Because the passing position just now is a little far to the right, in fact, it is better to find the right midfielder Jeremy Pinault of the Yellow Submarine, and the pass success rate is also higher.

But Albiol played a long pass to the left wing!

Just this time the long pass, it is far more than the Manchester United cooperation just now!

Because it completely disrupted Manchester United's defensive deployment!

I didn't expect him to pass to the other side!

And after Triguros received the ball, he adjusted a little and made a decisive shot!

Look for Gerard Moreno in the front line!

The 29-year-old Spanish striker came through the Villarreal academy and has spent most of his career with the team.

And the same goes for Terry Gros.

The two have always had a very tacit cooperation.

By the time Terry Guros received the ball, Moreno was already accelerating his sprint!

By this time he had already rushed through the Manchester United defence!

The ball came and he quickly got past Lindelof's defence!

Anti-offside success!

Lindelof tried desperately to chase back, but still couldn't stop him!

Knock in front of the goal!

Baca quickly followed and pushed into the net!

1 to 0!

Villarreal opens the scoring!

Manchester United have been hit off by a critical start! (End of chapter)
