7 month 21 day.
Landover Stadium.
Manchester United VS Barcelona.
This is Manchester United's first game in the International Champions Cup this season, and it is also the first official friendly match of the new season in the true sense of the hearts of Manchester United soldiers.
In the first two major league games, everyone was relatively relaxed and there was not much pressure.
It's different now.
Mourinho's words a few days ago are remembered by everyone.
There are very few players in this Manchester United team who have won the Champions League.
The last time Manchester United won the Champions League was ten years ago during the Ferguson era.
At this moment, everyone in the team is extremely looking forward to the moment of reaching the top.
How wonderful it would be!
In the room, Lukaku chatted with Xia Xing about the Champions League championship more than once.
"Man, you were so handsome when you won five trophies at Leicester City!"
"It's okay. It's mainly due to the support of my teammates."
"If I had been in the team, it would have been easier for Leicester to win the title."
"Well, I admit it. Van Persie was older at the time and his physical fitness, speed and strength had declined. You were better in these aspects."
"In your opinion, do you think we can win the Champions League at Manchester United?"
"I think so."
"How about you being discerning! I think so! If we join forces, we will be invincible!"
"..."
"And Pogba, he's pretty good too. Although he's not as good as you, he's still good."
"..."
"I also like Matic very much. He is also straightforward and can defend very hard."
"..."
"Mkhitaryan is just okay. His breakthrough and passing are lower than those in Dortmund, but that's okay."
"..."
"Xia, why don't you answer the call?"
"I'm asleep."
"Oh, I just said you might have fallen asleep. Get some rest early. Good night."
"Good night……"
Lukaku is like this, and many other young players are like this.
Last season they won the Premier League title, the Europa League and two domestic cup titles.
The honor of four crowns did not let them sleep on their laurels, but inspired them to have greater ambitions.
In fact, the four-time champion was not enough to support their pride.
After all, it’s just the Europa League.
Now everyone is looking forward to the Champions League championship.
Especially after Mourinho brainwashed them, they faced Barcelona as if they had been given a shot of blood.
In the game, Manchester United was full of momentum, but Barcelona seemed a bit sluggish.
Now the situation is completely opposite.
Manchester United won the league championship last season, beating their arch-rivals Manchester City and Liverpool; Barcelona was robbed of the league title by Real Madrid at the last moment of last season and lost to their arch-rivals.
Manchester United had great momentum in the European war last season and finally won the Europa League; Barcelona was eliminated by Juventus in the early quarter-finals of the Champions League last season and watched Real Madrid finally reach the top.
Manchester United went well in the transfer market this summer and bought the person they wanted; Barcelona had just opened the transfer window and poached the team's core player Neymar. Belle was injured when he came and is just recovering now.
Comparing many aspects, Manchester United's current situation is far better than Barcelona.
But in the actual game, Manchester United did not have the advantage!
In this game, Barcelona still used the familiar 4-3-3 formation, which has become Barcelona's tradition.
There is no Neymar on the front line, but with Dembele, the lineup is still complete.
Although he has just joined the team, Dembele is very active.
As soon as the game started, Dembele launched an attack from the left.
Dribbling the ball past two Manchester United defenders, cutting inside, and shooting into the far corner!Romero leaped up and hit the ball with both fists!
Wonderful shot, wonderful save!
Although he was injured when he first came to Barcelona, the injury was not serious and he has recovered now.
This shot is very powerful. Just seeing that Romero did not choose to hug the ball, you know that the shot is very powerful.
Next, Barcelona's offense will rely more on Messi on the right.
Messi has been well rested this summer and is obviously in great spirits.
Facing Xia Xing after receiving the ball, he cut inside and changed direction!
Xia Xing was passed!
This time the pass was clean and neat!
Wonderful!
Even Xia Xing was surprised!
Although he was assisting in defense just now, it was really inappropriate for him to be passed by so easily.
Xia Xing also felt the problem.
During this period of time, he was warming up with the Major League Baseball team and could not find the state for official games, so his game state was not adjusted well.
Although there is a "virtual arena" with ten hours of competition every day, it is not real after all, and winning or losing does not matter much.
There is a lack of tension, and the whole body is not tight enough.
After this time, Xia Xing started sweeping mode.
In the midfield and backfield, he ran across a large area and spared no effort to defend.
Even physical confrontation is not weak.
This immediately put Barcelona's offensive pressure on.
Especially Messi, after passing Xia Xing once, he never got any advantage from Xia Xing again.
However, Messi is not stubborn. When he sees no opportunity for personal performance, he seeks to help his teammates more.
During this period, Suarez has received two excellent crosses from Messi and almost scored with two blasts in the penalty area.
In addition to the performance of the striker, Barcelona's midfielder also cooperated tacitly.
Barcelona's midfield combination in this game is Iniesta, Busquets and Rakitic.
After Xavi left, Iniesta completely became Barcelona's midfield brain.
Now that he is older, he is not as forward to attack the goal as before. Now he is more involved in organizing and passing the ball in the midfield.
Many times old teammates have a special feeling, especially Busquets.
It seems that Xavi has always been there, and it was Iniesta who left?
Indeed, after Iniesta ages, Barcelona's midfield lacks a world-class forward attacking master.
Although players such as Rakitic and Rafinha are good, they are far inferior to Iniesta in terms of forward attack.
You must know that Iniesta was once ranked among the top three in the Ballon d'Or.
But even without Iniesta at his peak and Neymar with his sharp dribbling, Barcelona still has many offensive methods.
In the 38th minute of the game, Messi took the ball from the left and Xia Xing continued to press forward.
Messi made a fake move, but Xia Xing was not deceived. Instead, he suddenly pressed forward and used his body to collide!
Messi plays the ball in a hurry!
What a close call!
The ball was handed to the feet of Iniesta behind him. Iniesta had already observed the movement of his teammates!
A long pass goes straight to the right!
Find Dembélé!
Dembele is extremely fast and stops the ball in front of the baseline!
Quick pass!
Suarez in the middle of the penalty area fired from mid-air!
The ball hits the net!
1 is better than 0!
Barcelona's first record!
Barcelona's new coach Valverde applauded vigorously on the sidelines!
Mourinho on the side shook his head slightly.
Even if the state is not good, Barcelona is still Barcelona, and the foundation is too deep.
A really skinny camel is bigger than a horse... (End of this chapter)
