Star Card System

At this stage of the game, the physical fitness of many Manchester United players has also declined seriously.

Even if they have surpassed the score, they are still under great pressure to defend.

In this case, Xia Xing decisively retreated and arranged to organize defense.

This is the way Mourinho is best at.

As long as he leads by one goal, Mourinho dares to park the bus.

What's more, the opponent's physical condition is very poor now, and there is no threat at all.

But the development of the game is still unexpected.

In the last moments, both sides have many attacks, but most of them were destroyed in the midfield.

There is no particularly effective attack.

Leicester City fought back desperately, but it still didn't work.

Xia Xing's large-scale sweep of the backcourt was the most familiar style of play for Leicester City.

Now it has become the most troublesome enemy for them.

Three minutes of injury time, now it has come to the first minute.

Xia Xing intercepted the ball again in the middle, leaving Mahrez empty-handed.

Long pass to the penalty area, looking for Lukaku!

Lukaku sprinted quickly, it was a good opportunity!

But he didn't get the ball!

Maguire jumped high and headed the ball to clear the ball!

This is a wonderful defense!

The ball fell at Albrighton's feet!

Albrighton knocked it sideways!

Mahrez quickly caught the ball!

Xia Xing, who had just made a wonderful pass, also rushed towards Mahrez at this moment!

But Mahrez suddenly broke out!

This time he did not hesitate, turned around and sprinted with the ball!

He was exhausted just now, but now he seemed to be resurrected!

He rushed up, and even Xia Xing couldn't keep up for a while!

Matic in front of him stepped forward to defend!

Mahrez changed direction cleverly and passed him quickly!

Before the second defensive player rushed up, Mahrez had adjusted his pace and shot!

This is about 38 meters away from the goal, and Mahrez's shot is powerful!

And accompanied by an extremely strong arc!

Straight into the net!

Even De Gea's jump save was useless!

"The ball went in!

"It's so wonderful!

"Mahrez scored an extremely shocking goal!

"This goal can definitely compete for the best in the Premier League this season!

"Under the defense of many Manchester United players,

"When Leicester City was one goal behind,

"With one minute left in the game,

"When he was exhausted,

"Mahrez burst out with super potential!

"This shot was earth-shattering!

"3 to 3!

"Leicester City equalized the score at the last moment!

"Mahrez is the savior of Leicester City!

"He is so great! "

This shot made the Leicester City fans in the stadium crazy!

They have not been doing well this season, and they were only slightly better until the new coach arrived.

Even so, they also understand how big the gap is between them and Manchester United.

But even so, they still fought hard to the last minute!

This is the spirit of the Leicester City miracle!

Mahrez, who scored the equalizer, jumped up excitedly!

But when he landed, his calf cramped.

He covered his calf in pain, and at this time, a helping hand came from the side.

It was Xia Xing.

Xia Xing's face was still expressionless despite the cheers of Leicester City fans.

His old club made it The ball, his current team was tied.

This feeling is hard to describe.

Mahrez just lay quietly on the ground, letting Xia Xing help him stretch his legs.

At this time, the referee did not complete the last half minute and blew the whistle to end the game in advance.

3 to 3.

This is the final result of the game.

On the court, Leicester City players hugged and celebrated excitedly.

It is not easy to get a point at Old Trafford.

And it is even more difficult to tie so wonderfully.

Ndidi wanted to go forward to stretch his legs with Mahrez and replace Xia Xing.

But he was stopped by captain Morgan.

"Anyway, the game is over, let the two brothers talk."

In the center of the court, Xia Xing still gave Mahrez a leg stretch.

"How is it?"

"Better, thank you."

"I haven't stretched your legs for a long time, I'm not used to it, haha."

"Yes, the days when we played together seem to be a thing of the last life."

"I heard that you want to leave Leicester City next season? ”

“The news is flying everywhere... Yes, I wanted to leave this season, but the club stopped me and I have to leave next year.”

“If you leave, Leicester City will be even stronger...”

“It’s okay, there’s Vardy, he plans to stay here for life.”

“Yes, his feelings for Leicester City are much deeper than ours, after all, Leicester City gave him everything.”

“I’ll tell you in advance that I will most likely go to Manchester City next season.”

“Oh my God, what a damn decision, I really don’t want to be your opponent.”

“But this is also quite interesting. When I become your opponent again, I won’t be as embarrassed as today, I will have stronger teammates.”

“Then I’m looking forward to the battle then.”

“I’m looking forward to it too!”

Mahrez stood up from the ground, took off his jersey and handed it over, then took Xia Xing’s jersey.

The two men hugged and turned away.

Behind him, Mahrez heard Xia Xing say: "Man, I forgot to tell you."

"Huh? What did you say?"

"The shot you just shot was so cool! Man, you're awesome!!"

"Haha, of course!"

Despite the draw with Leicester City, Mourinho did not criticize the players.

“You have performed very well under such an intensive schedule, and I am proud of you!

"Although we only got one point in this game, you showed the blood of the Red Devils.

"The goal conceded in the end was just luck. If Mahrez was given ten or twenty shots from this position, he wouldn't be able to score.

“So, lads, hold your heads high and don’t forget we are still the league leaders!

"Go back and have a good sleep and rest. We still have a lot of battles ahead!"

Mourinho is right.

This is not just a consolation, but a sincere expression of the players.

Even if the team's league winning streak is ended, what's the problem?

No team can win all the time.

Any team needs to relax properly and relieve pressure at the right time.

A draw in a packed Christmas schedule, no problem.

In the 21st round of the Premier League three days later, Manchester United also failed to win.

The game, which was originally scheduled for December 31st, was moved to December 30th.

Manchester United rotated their lineup and attacked Southampton, but were eventually forced to draw 0-0 by their opponents.

Likewise, Mourinho did not criticize any players.

He even gave everyone New Year's gifts and asked everyone to go home and have a good rest.

"December 31st and January 1st, two consecutive days off. I wish you a Happy New Year in advance!"

The players were extremely grateful, put aside the burden of Lianping, and went home to celebrate the New Year.

But for Mourinho, this new year's work tasks are more arduous than any previous year... (End of this chapter)
