Star Card System

The stadium was filled with cheers, and countless fans gave applause to Manchester United, who had completed a reversal in this game.

Even Alan Shearer in the live broadcast room smiled and sighed: "It's not a reversal, it's not Manchester United."

Carragher next to him muttered: "This sentence is obviously a compliment to us Liverpool."

Alan Shearer glanced at him: "Forget it, now the 'Istanbul Miracle' has been overshadowed by the 'Kiev Wonderful Night'."

Carragher was speechless.

After a long time, he muttered indignantly: "Manchester United only has xia? Cut."

This is right.

At this time on the sidelines of the court, although they won the game, Mourinho was not particularly happy.

Because they just won another championship trophy, but it was still not so smooth.

When shaking hands with Simeone after the game, Simeone said something meaningful.

"I really envy you for having a superstar like xia."

This made Mourinho frown.

There is nothing wrong with this statement, because in this game, Xia Xing passed and shot again, and finally locked the victory.

In the pre-match tactics, Pogba and Xia Xing took turns organizing the attack in the first and second half.

But Pogba was far behind in the first half.

Compared with the fiercely competitive Atletico Madrid, Pogba's body was not even superior, and his technical characteristics could not be played out.

The 0-1 loss in the first half was still based on the wonderful defense of Xia Xing and De Gea. If not, more goals would be lost.

Xia Xing came up in the second half, and the situation opened up immediately.

One pass and one shot were just a microcosm of the excellent second half. If it were not for Oblak's wonderful save, Atletico Madrid would probably lose more goals.

At the current Manchester United, Xia Xing is indeed a unique existence.

Without him, the team would really collapse.

This situation must be changed...

In the next period of time, Mourinho convened the coaching staff to seriously think about countermeasures.

Try different combinations on the training ground.

For example, the different combinations of Herrera, Mata, and Lingard in the frontcourt.

But even if two people are sent, the effect is not as obvious as that of Xia Xing alone.

Pogba is talented and can often contribute a stroke of genius, but his shot at the critical moment is also eye-catching.

Especially his performance in the French team is absolutely world-class.

But unfortunately, he did not bring this state to the club.

In the last two games, he performed very badly.

This is also a headache for Mourinho.

He really wants to train Pogba well, but Pogba is not suitable for reuse.

Especially in this European Super Cup game, the performance of the team in the first and second half is obvious.

In the next period of time, Mourinho will risk making mistakes and try to create more offensive combinations and methods.

In the second round of the Premier League on August 19, Manchester United played away against Brighton.

On the court, Xia Xing met an old friend.

Conokate.

The good friends who had a good relationship in Leicester City met again in this game.

"Xia, I haven't congratulated you on winning the six-time champion in person yet. You're awesome! When I was at Leicester City, I knew you would definitely become a superstar."

"Man, you did great last season, too. I've been following you."

The two brothers hugged each other tightly, feeling cordial when they met old friends.

Friendship is one thing, fighting is another.

After the game started, the battle was full of gunpowder.

In this game, Mourinho still arranged Pogba and Xia Xing to organize the attack in two halves respectively.

The result was the same as in the European Super Cup.

No, it was different, because they didn't win the game by luck this time.

In the first half, Pogba was very active in the frontcourt, and the continuous forward attack did pose a great threat to Brighton.

But Pogba's technical characteristics are single. As long as someone is determined to defend and interfere, Pogba's threat will be reduced by half.

Compared with Xia Xing, Pogba's passing and shooting are also good, and his physical fitness is also strong, but he really lacks the ability to get rid of people in a small range.

This is very troublesome.

In the 27th minute of the game, after a pass from the wing, Brighton's right winger Connockate broke into the penalty area and shot low!

The ball went into the net!

1-0!

Brighton scored the first goal!

In the 35th minute of the game, Connockate's cross accurately found center forward Glenn Murray, who headed the ball into the goal!

The ball went into the net again!

2-0!

In the injury time of the first half, Connockate took a corner kick to the Manchester United penalty area.

In the chaos, Gross poked the ball into the net!

3-0!

At this time, cheers broke out at the Yuntong Community Stadium!

They led Manchester United by three goals at home!

This is so cool!

At this time, Mourinho's face was livid on the sidelines!

Another three-goal deficit at halftime!

And the opponent is not a top team!

Fxxk!

During the halftime break, Mourinho made decisive substitutions.

Lukaku, Sanchez and Bailly left the field!

Rashford, Lingard and Phil Jones came on as substitutes!

Three substitutions were used up in the first half, and Mourinho was in a bad mood.

Needless to say, Xia Xing and Pogba swapped positions, which was already arranged before the game.

Manchester United was a little dumbfounded just after the second half started.

Brighton changed its formation!

From 4-4-2 in the first half, it has become 5-4-1 now!

Although it is just a position adjustment, the overall tactical play has changed!

They started to park the bus!

This gave Manchester United players a headache.

After falling behind by three goals, the opponent still parked the bus, which was troublesome.

Mourinho on the side of the court also exhaled hard, and even had a trace of despair in his heart.

The possibility of winning this game is too small.

As a master of the bus tactics, Mourinho knows the essence and power of this tactic.

This is the best way to defeat the strong with the weak.

Especially after leading by one goal, you can win by defending the opponent to death.

And now, the opponent is leading by three goals.

Even if you add the error tolerance rate, they are almost certain to win.

Let alone the Champions League final and the first round of the Premier League against Liverpool, because that was Klopp's team.

Klopp is aggressive in attack, so he will open and close.

If Klopp is still hiding after leading by three goals, Manchester United's Champions League title is probably out of the question!

Now, it's troublesome...

Pogba retreated to defend, and he was not happy.

But he had nothing to say.

After all, his performance just now made him embarrassed to stay in the front.

Now let's see what you can do?

Tsk!

For Xia Xing, this second half was too difficult.

In the unfavorable situation of 0 to 3, it was too difficult to score a goal when the opponent retreated so resolutely.

But Xia Xing's dictionary definitely did not have the word "give up".

Rashford, who came on as a substitute, went to the front, and Lingard was on the right, and the two fought very actively.

Among the players who renewed their contracts this season, Rashford is definitely the most active player.

This is also related to the role model power of his idol Xia Xing.

After continuous struggle in the second half, Manchester United's chance finally came...(End of this chapter)
