Asian Derby.

This statement made Xia Xing feel helpless. He sincerely hoped that this would be a real "Asian Derby".

After all, holding British nationality was not his choice.

But he also admitted in his heart that if he did not have this British nationality, he would not even have the opportunity to get to this point now.

However, in his heart, he still regarded China as his motherland, not himself as a British.

Coincidentally, many British people also think so.

When Xia Xing was invited by the England national team, he was also moved.

Who would not want to participate in the World Cup?

But in the end, he still rejected the invitation of the England national team.

In addition to personal emotional reasons, external factors also have a great influence.

For example, many football bosses and fan representatives in England are opposed to Xia Xing joining the England national team.

For the proud English, they are very resistant to the fact that a Chinese person joins the England national team.

What, is our country's people not good enough?

Must we find a foreigner?

Even if he has British nationality, he grew up in China since he was a child. What feelings does he have for Britain?

We oppose him joining the England national team!

There was a lot of opposition online, but Xia Xing was straightforward.

He publicly stated that he would not consider national team competitions for the time being, and would focus on playing club competitions.

The debate came to an abrupt end.

Although this discussion has ended, for many people, Xia Xing is still a Chinese.

So this game is still an Asian derby.

Both sides played with all their main players, tit-for-tat.

As soon as the game started, the visiting Tottenham gave Manchester United a head start.

Dembele, the defensive midfielder, passed the ball to Son Heung-min in the left front.

Son Heung-min knocked the ball to Eriksen in the middle.

Facing Xia Xing's grab, Eriksen made a straight pass!

Before Xia Xing kicked, he passed the ball to Harry Kane in the penalty area!

The English center received the ball, turned around and shot!

De Gea blocked the ball with his foot!

This time Manchester United was too dangerous!

Soon, Manchester United also responded.

This time, Xia Xing was dribbling the ball on the left. Facing Ali's steal, he changed direction and accelerated, passing the opponent!

He also came to the middle!

He passed the ball diagonally to Pogba who was advancing!

Pogba dribbled the ball with a big step and kicked it!

Goalkeeper Lori punched it out with both fists!

Tottenham also escaped!

In the first ten minutes of the game, both sides had an attack, which posed a great threat to the opponent.

Next, the attack became more intensive, and goals followed.

In the 17th minute of the game, Xia Xing made a diagonal pass on the left and went straight into the penalty area!

Although Ibrahimovic is tall, he is not a center forward who can head the ball!

Xia Xing's pass was also a half-high ball!

Facing this even somewhat weird passing route, Ibrahimovic was very happy!

Just what I wanted!

He squeezed Alderweireld with his back, faced the incoming ball, and volleyed!

The ball hit the net!

1-0!

Manchester United scored the first goal!

Ibrahimovic, who scored the goal, excitedly rushed to Xia Xing and hugged him tightly!

"Xia! You are awesome! You are even better than my wife!"

"Fuck, what a perverted metaphor..."

After scoring a goal, Manchester United players were in a good mood.

Soon, their second goal came.

It was also Xia Xing's cross, and he was also looking for Ibrahimovic!

But this time it just looked like he was looking for Ibrahimovic!

In fact, the ball was not fast!

There was a gap at the front point, Rooney quickly moved forward and shot in front of the goal!

The ball went into the net!

2-0!

Manchester United scored another goal!

Excited Rooney also ran to Xia Xing and hugged him tightly!

"Xia! You are awesome! You are definitely better than Ibrahimovic's wife!"

"Fuck, do you want to see what you just said..."

Two consecutive passes, light and easy!

This is the power of Manchester United's core organizer!

The game has only been going on for 30 minutes!

For a period of time, Xia Xing was completely trapped in the opponent's tight defense.

In just ten minutes, Xia Xing contributed two assists, and it was so easy.

Pochettino on the sidelines shouted loudly for the players to press forward.

Time passed by minute by minute, and it was almost time for the injury time of the first half.

Manchester United midfielder controlled the ball, and Xia Xing just received the ball when he was double-teamed by three people.

He chose to pass it horizontally and passed it to Pogba.

Vertonghen suddenly rushed up and directly intercepted Pogba's ball!

Xia Xing's pass was just right, but Pogba was slow to receive the ball!

Vertonghen kicked the ball with a big foot!

The ball went straight to the front court, and Harry Kane retreated to receive the ball!

Facing the pressing of Manchester United's central defender, Kane passed it horizontally!

Then he quickly turned and rushed to the goal!

At this time, Son Heung-min on the left side passed the ball without stopping!

Kane broke through the defense and faced De Gea alone!

Calmly pushed the ball!

The ball went into the net!

2 to 1!

Tottenham scored a goal back!

At this time, the referee whistled and the first half of the game ended.

Originally, they were leading by two goals, but because of a mistake, they became one goal ahead.

Mourinho was somewhat dissatisfied with the team's performance in the final stage.

In the locker room, he reminded the players without naming them to increase their attention to the game.

But even so, Manchester United still lost the ball unexpectedly at the beginning of the second half.

This time, the ball was lost from Manchester United's wing. After Valencia dribbled the ball to assist, the Tottenham player assisted in the defense and intercepted the ball.

The ball was passed to the middle!

Tottenham's counterattack started!

Eriksen received the ball in the middle and passed it to Ali on the right.

Ali stopped the ball, led it outward, quickly dunked it inward, and pulled it back to the outside again!

These three consecutive actions made Xia Xing's defense very cautious!

However, Ali was not arrogant. He knew Xia Xing's defensive ability very well.

After shaking several times in a row, he still chose to pass the ball quickly!

His approach was very smart!

The ball flew to the left side, looking for Son Heung-min!

Manchester United's defense was left, and Son Heung-min was empty in front of him!

Receive the ball, dribble, and sprint quickly!

Mkhitaryan chased back, and Son Heung-min changed direction and squeezed him behind him!

Sprint along the middle!

Phil Jones rushed up!

Son Heung-min cut diagonally to the left again!

Successfully passed the second person!

At a small angle near the goal post, he kicked and shot!

The ball blasted open the goal guarded by De Gea!

2 to 2!

Tottenham equalized the score!

In the live broadcast room, Carragher applauded Son Heung-min!

"When the team was two goals behind, the Korean striker made a pass and a shot to help the team equalize the score! His performance was great!"

But just two minutes later, he was slapped in the face!

Xia Xing received the ball on the left, suddenly dribbled forward, and quickly cut inside when he was 30 meters away from the goal!

Decisive kick and shot!

This shot was very sudden!

Fast and floating!

Straight to the dead corner of the goal!

Lori had no power to fight back!

Thunderous applause rang out at Old Trafford!

In the live broadcast room, Alan Shearer's excited voice rang out!

"This goal is too important!

"Manchester United was equalized by the opponent and fell into trouble!

"Xia stood out again and scored a stunning goal, helping the team take the lead again!

"This game known as the 'Asian Derby',

"Son Heung-min made one pass and one shot,

"Xia made two passes and one shot,

"Slightly better!"
