Jing Xue Qing Zhu
The referee's whistle sounded, and Manchester United's onslaught temporarily came to an end.
With four goals in hand, Manchester United is stable.
Alan Shearer in the live broadcast room kept praising.
"These 45 minutes belong to Pogba's 45 minutes!
"Three shots and one pass, he played the best 45 minutes since joining Manchester United!
"In this game, even the brilliance of Pogba was overshadowed!
"As expected of a talent that Manchester United spent 1.05 million euros on, it's extraordinary!"
Carragher next to him was also speechless: "If Manchester United really allows Xia and Pogba to perform at their top level at the same time, then the future of this team will be really terrible..."
The recognition from the sworn enemy is the greatest recognition.
With four goals in hand, Mourinho made consecutive substitution adjustments in the second half.
Both Xia Xing and Pogba were replaced.
"Already leading by four goals, let the other players find their status in the second half."
Although the two geniuses had more to say, they didn't say anything.
In the end, Manchester United scored two more goals in the second half, extending the score to 6-0.
This is also the final outcome of the game.
With a six-goal victory, Manchester United has entered the Carabao Cup final ahead of schedule after winning the game by a large margin.
It doesn't matter if all youth team players appear in the second round.
And what Mourinho is most concerned about now is not such a domestic cup match, but the next double red meeting.
Facing Liverpool led by Klopp, Mourinho did not dare to take it lightly.
In the first half, Manchester United defeated Liverpool 4-3. Xia Xing's three consecutive passes helped captain Wayne Rooney perform a hat-trick.
Even though they won before, it doesn't mean they are stronger than Liverpool.
Even if Mourinho is confident, he must be cautious.
Because Liverpool are strong, because Klopp is strong.
So far this season, Liverpool has maintained a good state.
Although he failed to shake Manchester United's leading position and Chelsea's No.2 position, he is firmly in the top six with Manchester City, Arsenal and Tottenham, and has been maintained in the Champions League.
Now that the competition in the Premier League is so fierce, it is not easy to achieve such results.
Liverpool's ability to have such strength is inseparable from their full-court pressing tactics.
From Firmino on the front line to goalkeeper Mignolet, everyone pressed forward, making it difficult for the opponent to play the ball effectively.
This is the core thinking of Klopp's tactics.
The rest is to improve the counterattack efficiency, strive to attack quickly after stealing the ball, and catch the opponent by surprise.
Facing Manchester United today, they once again used such a magic weapon.
For the team coached by Mourinho, although this full-court pressing tactic is difficult to deal with, it is not unsolvable.
Are you all pressing?
OK, we will arrange the bus soon.
Let's see who can spend more than who.
Sure enough, even with Xia Xing, Pogba, Rooney, Ibrahimovic and many other offensive players present in this game, Mourinho still played.
看起来的4-2-3-1阵型，实际上都变成了6-3-1阵型。
Xia Xing and Pogba frequently retreated to participate in the defense, and the overall formation was very low.
In this way, the possession of the ball was given up and Liverpool took possession of the ball.
For the current Liverpool, it is not that they do not have offensive players who can handle the ball.
For example, Coutinho, he is a talented winger called "the third man under Melo" by countless Red Army fans.Manchester United retreated, and the Brazilian midfielder began to show off.
Continuous wing dribbling, shooting!
In this game, De Gea caught the ball high and blocked low, trying to keep the goal.
And center Firmino also frequently retreated to catch the ball, helping Sturridge, Lallana, Wijnaldum and other players to create opportunities.
This "forward guard" style of play often makes opponents very uncomfortable.
In the face of Liverpool's onslaught, Manchester United did not concede a goal in the first half and tried to keep the goal.
During the intermission, Pogba asked Mourinho: "Coach, can't we press up and counterattack properly? Or control the ball more."
Mourinho shook his head seriously: "Liverpool just won three consecutive league victories and returned to the No.4 position. They are in excellent form. It is not the right way to go head-to-head with them at this time. We avoid their edge, Facing it with a flat attitude will only make Liverpool more anxious, and then we can seize the opportunity to counterattack. Don't be greedy for ball possession data, it's useless!"
That's what Mourinho said, and that's what he arranged.
In the second half, he changed sides and fought again, but he still let the team retreat to defend.
Occasionally, Xia Xing's big kick kicked off to find Rooney and Ibrahimovic, allowing the two to seek opportunities to score goals with their excellent personal skills.
Both had a shot each, but neither scored.
Time passed by every minute and every second, and the game has come to the 80th minute.
Mourinho just replaced the veterans Rooney and Ibrahimovic, and the young Rashford and Martial played.
This substitution made Klopp vigilant.
Manchester United will fight back!
But even so, he was helpless.
Because comparing the two teams, Liverpool needs to win more.
After all, Manchester United leads Chelsea by a large score, and a draw is irrelevant.
And Liverpool has just climbed to the fourth place in the league. If this game cannot win, then Arsenal will come from behind and return to the top four.
So even if this game is risky, it must be stormed!
After Coutinho's shot was blocked by De Gea, United's counterattack finally came again.
Xia Xing received the ball in the midfield, facing Emrejan's pressing, he calmly swiped!
Passed Emrejan's kick to steal the ball!
It seems that although it's just an action to let the ball go, Xia Xing has already observed the position of his teammates in advance!
At this time Rashford and Martial are both speeding up!
Martial's position is higher, the opportunity is better!
At this time, Xia Xing faced the front right, ready to pass the ball!
Liverpool's defense immediately accelerated to the left back Milner's side to help defend!
But Xia Xing didn't pass to the right!
He supported the lawn with his left foot, drew a small semicircle on the ground with his right foot, and forcibly twisted his body!
The ball flew straight to the left front!
Rashford is going forward fast!
Although his position is not as high as Martial, but his speed is faster!
And it has been accelerated to the extreme!
Liverpool right back Klein did not expect Xia Xing's pass, he was half a beat late!
At this moment, Rashford rushed over!
And sprint diagonally, heading straight for the restricted area!
The body blocked Klein's way back to defense!
Receive the ball steadily and succeed in anti-offside!
Center Matip makes up the defense quickly!
But his speed is not as fast as Rashford who has already rushed!
The genius of England kicked and shot from the penalty area line!
The ball goes straight to the foot of the far post!
Inserted an absolute dead end!
Mignolet can do nothing!
"The ball went in!
"fantastic!
"The shot was crisp and decisive, Liverpool's defense was useless!
"In the last moments of the game, Manchester United finally broke the deadlock!
"1 to 0!" (End of this chapter)
