Chapter 557: All-round attack and defense!

The moment Rashford scored, Old Trafford broke out in thunderous applause!

Cheers were heard everywhere!

Rashford, who scored the goal, was a child they had trained themselves!

He was very popular in the Manchester United camp.

Now, Rashford went from a mistake of losing the ball to the glory of scoring a goal, and the difference of a few seconds was the joy of hell to heaven!

It was wonderful!

Guardiola was absolutely noisy with cheers all over his ears.

At this moment, he did not arrange the tactical arrangements for the players.

Speaking of which, Manchester City played well just now and perfectly implemented his requirements.

Although they lost the ball, it was just an accident.

Keep playing, they can win, no problem.

Guardiola is very confident.

But at this moment, he looked at Xia Xing on the court with mixed feelings.

I really like this guy.

He is great.

Not only does he have top defensive ability, but he also has a very strong passing level, and even the ability to attack the goal is first-class.

And he has first-class physical fitness, first-class speed, and first-class strength.

The attitude towards playing football is also super good.

He has the top desire to win of Ronaldo and the humility and low-key of Messi.

Such a good player is really rare.

Guardiola's eyes on Xia Xing are getting hotter and hotter...

If I leave Manchester City to go to other teams in the future, I will definitely ask to sign Xia first!

On the other side, Mourinho was even more amazed at Xia Xing.

It is really a blessing for me to have such a player in the team.

Looking back at the teams I coached in the past, I have never met a player like Xia.

Lampard, Sneijder, Essien, Cambiasso...

These are all midfielders he likes very much.

And Xia Xing is a combination of these people.

All-round attack and defense!

Can defend, can assist, just relying on a key pass to help the team equalize.

You know, he can also shoot.

There must be a chance to help the team score in a while!

Just thinking about it, there was another change on the field at this time.

After Manchester United equalized the score, their momentum obviously rose a lot.

Still solid defense, but also no ambiguity in offense.

Although not as many troops as Manchester City, the offensive effect is definitely not bad.

In the 38th minute of the game, Manchester City's side pass was intercepted!

This time Smalling made a contribution!

He predicted Jesus's running position and took the lead in intercepting the ball!

Valencia grabbed the second point!

Crossed the middle!

Xia Xing received the ball and quickly passed the ball to the right front!

Valencia had already accelerated!

He rushed up!

As a full-back who is good at assists, his characteristics are very distinctive!

Tough style of play, fast advancement, Manchester City is in trouble!

Sane returned to defense, but was directly squeezed away by Valencia!

After Valencia received Xia Xing's two-on-one pass, he was very determined to move forward!

David Silva on the left rushed up!

He was also rushed by Valencia using his speed!

The Spanish midfielder's offense is very strong, but the defense is average.

Valencia is like a man in a no-man's land!

In the live broadcast room, Alan Shearer got excited!

"Valencia passed two people in a row!

"His two-on-one cooperation with Xia was really wonderful!

"He used his performance to tell his opponent - at Manchester United, there is another one who can play a one-stop game on the wing!

"At this moment, he has rushed to the edge of the penalty area!

"Manchester City left-back Delph rushed to grab the ball frantically!

"As a defensive player who can play in the middle and behind, Delph is known for his ferocity!

"Valencia did not act recklessly, he chose to knock horizontally again!

"It's Xia again!

"He has been following Valencia's pace and continued to accelerate in the middle!

"At this moment, he received the ball again!

"He glanced at the left side, Rashford accelerated!

"But he didn't pass it to him!

"Instead, he still passed the ball straight to the right front!

"The ball still looks for Valencia!

"Valencia had already sprinted in advance and shook off Delph who was a little dazed!

"Rush into the penalty area and shoot next to the near post!

"The ball hit the far corner of the goal!

"Ederson was powerless!

"The ball went in!"

"2 to 1!"

"Manchester United finally overtook the score!"

"This cooperation was great!"

"Manchester United used only two players to complete the fatal blow!"

"From the beginning to now, Manchester City has occupied most of the initiative,

"But at this moment, the leading team has become Manchester United!"

"Manchester United is so efficient!"

"Manchester United scored a goal, and Old Trafford was boiling again!

This time even Carragher couldn't help but praise Valencia.

"The main reason for Manchester United's first goal just now was Valencia.

"Because he was passed by Sane in the penalty area, Sane assisted Jesus to score,

"Valencia has an unshirkable responsibility for the loss of the ball.

"And now, he has finally made up for his mistakes and completed his redemption.

"This 33-year-old Ecuadorian veteran is really respectable. "

At this moment, Valencia had already rushed to Xia Xing and hugged the young man who was ten years younger than him!

He didn't say anything, but hugged him very hard.

And Mourinho on the sidelines also smiled with satisfaction.

It was great.

Finally overtook the score.

It will be even better next time.

Although Mourinho told the players to win the game before the game, his bottom line is actually a draw.

If they can draw with Manchester City at home, they can accept it.

After all, they are five points ahead.

Manchester City is different. They must grab points in this game to narrow the gap.

So Mourinho took advantage of this difference in mentality and fought back steadily in this game.

After Manchester United overtook, Manchester City's next attack was more fierce.

However, Manchester United was in high spirits during this period, and Manchester City had no chance at all.

The referee blew the whistle and the first half of the game was over.

Manchester United temporarily led Manchester City 2-1, and the game was about to enter the second half.

During the halftime break, Mourinho only told the players, but did not make any substitutions. He was more satisfied with the performance of the players in the first half.

But Manchester City was different.

Guardiola used two substitutions, withdrew Delph and Sterling, and replaced them with Bernardo Silva and Aguero.

Delph performed poorly in the first half, so he simply withdrew him and replaced him with a midfielder.

Sterling was sleepwalking and wasted several chances. Aguero, who had just recovered from injury, came on as a substitute.

The formation also changed to 3-4-3.

Guardiola was going to attack fiercely in the second half.

The effect of these changes was immediate.

Not long after the start of the second half, Manchester City played a wonderful combination in the midfield.

Bernardo Silva's diagonal pass from the middle accurately found Aguero who was advancing!

Aguero sprinted quickly and used his speed to wipe out the defense of his national team teammate Rojo!

He kicked and shot in the penalty area!

De Gea saved the ball on the goal line and blocked it!

Manchester United fans were shocked and sweated!

It was so dangerous!

Even De Gea's save was a reflex shot, and he was very scared.

The power of Argentina's starting striker is really extraordinary! (End of this chapter)
