Star Card System

After winning against Leeds United, Manchester United gradually got back on track.

Then their state gradually stabilized and their league results also steadily improved.

Although there are some draws and losses, the overall situation is still good.

Facing Leicester City in the fifteenth round of the league, the two sides played a wonderful offensive battle.

Fans of both sides can still recall the last game of last season, when Manchester United won against Leicester City and stabilized their position in the top four of the league.

However, Leicester City, ranked fifth, was also lucky, because Manchester United won the Europa League and got a separate opportunity to participate in the Champions League. Therefore, Leicester City advanced and also got the opportunity to participate in the Champions League play-offs.

So even though there was a life-and-death showdown before, the result was still a happy one.

The offensive lines of both sides were in good condition today and frequently played smooth offense.

De Gea and Schmeichel were also in great form, catching the ball high and blocking the opponent's shot.

In the 27th minute of the first half, Rashford received Xia Xing's through ball, used his speed to break through the defense of veteran Evans, and pushed a shot into the net from the dead center in the penalty area.

1 to 0.

Five minutes later, Vardy responded with a semi-volley in the penalty area to equalize the score.

1 to 1.

The stretch of the action and the beauty of the goal excited countless Leicester City fans.

In the second half, the game changed sides and Manchester United launched a quick advance from the backcourt.

Xia Xing stole the ball and hit Matic horizontally.

Matic passed a diagonal pass to B Fee. B Fee made a pass without stopping the ball. The ball again came to the feet of Xia Xing, who was advancing quickly.

In this game, Xia Xing and Matic partnered as a defensive midfielder, and B Fei played as an attacking midfielder. The three of them cooperated well.

Xia Xing received the ball and passed diagonally to the right, looking for James.

James sprinted quickly and made a cross from the baseline!

Greenwood shot in front of the goal and into the net!

2 to 1!

Manchester United takes the lead again!

This wonderful multi-person pass coordination made the away team fans cheer in the stands!

Bravo!

This is the power of our Manchester United!

After taking the lead, Manchester United has maintained its advantage and has become more aggressive.

Until the 88th minute of the game, Leicester City made an inconspicuous offensive and was surrounded by Manchester United.

Seeing that Albrighton had no chance to pass the ball, he simply took a long shot.

Unexpectedly, this long-range shot from the right wing went straight into the top corner of the goal!

2 to 2!

Leicester City scored a stunning goal!

In the end, the two sides shook hands and settled at the King Power Stadium.

After a draw, Manchester United once again ushered in a wave of climax.

A 1-0 win over Wolves, a 2-1 win over Aston Villa, and a 1-0 win over Burnley.

Three consecutive bloodless contests gave Manchester United a perfect victory in their multi-front battle.

The rotation players also performed well.

But even so, in the frequent competitions in Europe and the Premier League, the wave of injuries still comes.

United are struggling.

In January 2021, the winter transfer window opens.

The management of Manchester United is still searching for new players. This winter, they did not bring in any strong players. They just bought the young Ivory Coast forward Amad Diallo. The 18-year-old cost Manchester United 21.3 million euros.

After signing him, he changed hands and was loaned out.

At the same time, Ighalo ended his loan period and left the team.

Manchester United's forward line is even more stretched.

In addition to Ighalo, there is also veteran defenseman Rojo who has left the team.

The 32-year-old Argentine defender chose to return to Argentina and join Boca Juniors.

Manchester United did not ask for any transfer fee and allowed the player to leave freely.

Lingard also accepted West Ham United's loan request because he lost his main position and decided to go out on loan.

The team had one player come and go this winter, as well as three rotation players.

The second half of the season was even harder to play.

The only good thing is that most of their league competitors are in sluggish form this season.

Liverpool and Chelsea are pretty good, but they often lose unexpectedly and are currently ranked third or fourth.

Leicester City and Tottenham are even more difficult to compete for the sixth place.

Not to mention Arsenal, already outside the tenth place, this season may be another bad season.

With opponents pulling their hips, Manchester United is firmly ranked second in the league.

There is still a long way to go before Manchester City tops the list, and it is difficult to catch up, but the top four positions are basically stable.

In the last round of the first half of the Premier League, Manchester United played away to Liverpool.

In this game, both sides received a total of four reds and five yellows, and the scene was quite intense.

Klopp has also encountered a wave of injuries this season, and they are much more serious than Manchester United.

The current injury list includes Van Dijk, Diogo Jota, Joe Gomez, Naby Keita, Matip...

The injured list can put together a starting lineup.

Facing Manchester United, they pounced with all their strength, hoping to overtake the ranking and return to second place.

In the 34th minute of the first half, the Liverpool Trident played an extremely exciting match.

As one of the strongest tridents in the Premier League, no one dares to underestimate Liverpool's offensive power.

Mane sprinted with the ball from the left wing, knocked the ball across and handed it to Firmino in the middle.

Firmino took the ball with his back and moved to the right again, looking for Salah.

Salah rushed into the penalty area and shot from a small angle!

Just when De Gea blocked the near corner, Salah suddenly flicked his ankle!

They didn't shoot, but chose to pass the ball!

The ball flew to the middle!

Firmino missed the ball cleverly, and Mane volleyed at the back post!

Maguire flew to block the ball and cleared it!

England's high school defender made a great contribution!

De Gea moved quickly, hugged the ball, and protected the second point!

Manchester United kept the goal intact!

In the 71st minute of the second half, Xia Xing also got a chance to break the deadlock.

A free kick shot directly, the ball hit the post and bounced out of the bottom line.

Alisson didn't move at all, the ball was too fast.

If it had just turned a little more inward, the ball would have gone in, what a pity.

Xia Xing shook his head repeatedly, extremely regretful.

Today's foot feel was a little worse.

In addition, the opponent's fierce pressing and malicious fouls were also one of the main reasons affecting the offensive efficiency of both sides.

The few shots that were just a hair's breadth away were just an episode in this game, and the fierce confrontation was the main theme.

On the Liverpool side, Shaqiri and Fabinho received red cards in the first and second half respectively and were sent off.

At the same time as the two were sent off, Fred and Mata of Manchester United were also sent off due to conflicts.

In addition, yellow cards were flying all over the place on both sides.

Even the always steady Xia Xing received a yellow card.

In the end, the game ended 0-0.

Apart from taking away a bunch of red and yellow cards, neither side gained anything.

They didn't get a chance to go further.

Liverpool still ranked third, five points behind Manchester United.

Manchester United also continued to be widened by Manchester City in points, and was already ten points behind... (End of this chapter)
