Returning to Manchester with the League Cup trophy, Manchester United fans lined the streets to welcome him.
Although Manchester United players are already used to it, after all, they won four crowns last season.
But even so, every victory and every championship makes them extremely excited.
The League Cup is here, let’s continue to strive for more trophies!
After winning against Manchester City, Manchester United's recent intensive competition is still not over.
Mourinho once again made extensive rotations in the weekend's league.
This time, in order to let most of the players rest, he even sent a few youth team players.
After all, they are already twelve league points ahead and have several important games ahead, so they now need to conserve their energy.
In the 29th round of the league, they played away against Crystal Palace. Manchester United, which played half of its youth team, lost.
They lost 0-2 to their opponents, with Zaha scoring twice.
The former Manchester United player went all out, relying on personal technical breakthroughs to successfully score twice in a row.
Manchester United's third goalkeeper Dean Henderson performed well throughout the game, but still failed to guard Zaha.
Although Manchester United lost, to the delight of their fans, Manchester City also lost.
After losing the League Cup final, the team's morale and state were affected. This game had no form and lost to Conte's Chelsea.
Hazard's brace made Manchester City pay for their downturn.
There are two things the English football media are discussing right now.
First, who is the real "shooting king" in London?
Second, Manchester United slowed down, and Manchester City also hit the brakes. Do they not want to compete for the Premier League championship?
In both cases, Manchester City became a joke.
But this has nothing to do with Manchester United.
They are still firmly at the top of the league, standing proudly.
Even though Mourinho is not speaking out loud now, it can be seen from the post-match interview how relaxed he is.
Even though he lost to Crystal Palace, Mourinho was not in a hurry. Instead, he believed that the defeat had positive significance.
"In the long season, we will definitely lose a few less important games. After all, the players can't be tight all the time. They need to relax their nerves. It's not bad that this loss happened at this time."
Regarding the defeat, Mourinho downplayed it so lightly, which is enough to show his confidence in the team.
Yes, we are already 12 points ahead of Manchester City, and there are only 9 rounds left in the league. What else is there to worry about?
However, Mourinho did not take it lightly, at least he did not show too much laxity in the team.
Although he was very relaxed in front of reporters, in the team's tactical training session afterwards, Mourinho carefully analyzed the reasons for the defeat and asked the players to observe themselves and their teammates' movements through the big screen to find the loser. The details of the ball leak.
Although the league is stable, it is still very useful in the next games.
If you want to compete on multiple fronts, especially in the Champions League, you must maintain your form through the league.
If the league wins too early, it will affect the competitive state of the Champions League.
Bayern fans definitely know this best.
So Mourinho asked the players to relax, but they must not relax.
After losing to Crystal Palace on March 3, Manchester United will have three important games next.
On March 3th, in the No.10 round of the Premier League, Manchester United played against Liverpool at home.
On March 3, in the second leg of the Champions League quarter-finals, Manchester United faced the challenge of Barcelona at home.
On March 3, in the quarter-finals of the FA Cup, Manchester United played Huddersfield away.
After these three games, it will be the national team match day, and each club will take a temporary break.
So Manchester United must play these three games well.
In comparison, the result of this Premier League game against Liverpool was of minimal significance.
After all, these two games of the Champions League and FA Cup are determined by whether they can advance to the next round, and the Premier League is already stable, so winning or losing doesn't matter.
But this is just an ordinary Premier League game. For this game, Manchester United must strive to win!Facing Liverpool, whenever you meet them, you must fight to death!
Because this is the Double Red Club!
This is true for Manchester United, and even more so for Liverpool.
They are currently fourth in the league, only three points ahead of Chelsea behind them.
If we lose, we may lose our top four spot.
So no matter from any angle, they will attack with all their strength in this game.
Manchester United also did their part.
But they hid some of their main players today.
For example, Lukaku and Pogba did not start, and they were not even included in the game squad.
Because Barcelona will play in a few days, Mourinho must preserve his strength.
After all, the confrontation between the Double Red Club and the Red Club is too fierce, and it will be troublesome if there are injured people at this time.
In this game, Liverpool deployed a 4-3-3 formation, which was full of attack power.
The forward trident Salah, Firmino and Mane appeared together.
So far this season, the three's offensive power is quite outstanding, and they have even become one of the most well-coordinated combinations in the Premier League.
Just looking at their number of goals, they are definitely capable of moving further up the rankings.
However, due to defensive problems, Liverpool lost too many points in the first half of the season.
Fortunately, with the introduction of Van Dijk this winter, Liverpool's defensive improvement was immediate.
They fought back in the second half of the season and climbed all the way to the Champions League.
Facing Manchester United in this game, they are bound to win!
Klopp still pursued a full-court pressing tactic, starting with center Firmino and counterattacking on the spot, making Manchester United uncomfortable with the ball from front to back.
But this tactic didn't work today.
Because Mourinho still set up his bus today, focusing on giving the ball away!
As a result, Liverpool could only control the ball in Manchester United's half and resorted to passing and controlling tactics.
But this is not their specialty.
Although players such as Salah and Mane have excellent skills, they are still at a loss to deal with Manchester United's iron barrel formation.
Liverpool's onslaught in the first half was fruitless, but towards the end of the half, they conceded the goal instead.
Xia Xing's long pass accurately found Sanchez who was penetrating forward!
Sanchez took a shot from outside the penalty area!
The ball goes straight into the net!
1 is better than 0!
Manchester United broke the deadlock!
At this time, the Liverpool fans in the stands were silent.
Not only because he lost the ball, but also because the way he shot just now looked very much like Coutinho...
In the second half, the team changed sides and fought again, but Manchester United still held on.
There was no rush to attack in the first half, not to mention there was a one-goal advantage in the second half.
Liverpool even changed their formation to 3-3-4 and attacked with all their strength!
But still to no avail.
In the 3rd minute of stoppage time, Salah passed two people and then took a shot. The ball hit the side net.
Liverpool missed their last chance.
The referee blows the whistle, the game is over!
In this fierce double red meeting, Manchester United finally defeated Liverpool 1-0 and won the game! (End of chapter)
