Chapter 605 Confrontation!

Jing Xue Qing Zhu
Rooney has been injured a lot this season and has only played a handful of games.
But even so, he still made many contributions to the team.
Putting aside the influence of the locker room, key goals also helped Manchester United score a lot of points.
He made his debut today and played an obvious role in the frontcourt.
With the ball in hand, the Manchester United players felt a little more relaxed.
There was no need to feel pressure. After all, with a double-digit lead in league points, we could play more relaxedly.
But just now the mentality was relaxed and the ball was quickly lost.
Just 8 minutes after Rooney scored, Swansea scored a goal in the chaos with a corner kick opportunity.
1 to 1, Swansea equalized the score.
This goal was the result of an overall mistake by Manchester United's defense, which resulted in a missed goal.
There is also this corner kick, which is also a problem with Manchester United's wing defense.
This is not unfair.
The game continued, and the two sides still fought fiercely.
Swansea, who equalized the score, saw hope. If they can get three points, they can temporarily beat Huddersfield and escape the relegation zone. This is definitely a morale-boosting victory for them.
Especially winning against Manchester United instilled great confidence in the following games.
You must know that there are not many teams that can win at Manchester United's home court this season. Let alone winning, there are not many draws.
In the 44th minute of the first half, Swansea launched another fierce attack.
Although the continuous passes in the midfield and frontcourt were not particularly accurate, the ball still entered the penalty area after stumbling.
Continuous mistakes by Manchester United's three defensive players put the team in trouble!
Romero fought hard to save, but still couldn't stop his opponent's shot!
The ball is in!
2 is better than 1!
Swansea is really ahead!
At Old Trafford, Swansea players celebrated wildly!
The Swansea fans in the stands were also excited!
What a fantastic first half!
The referee blew the whistle at the end of the first half, and the Swansea players were still ecstatic.
Mourinho frowned on the sidelines, said nothing, turned around and walked back to the locker room.
The team didn't play well in the first half, there's no doubt about it.
Mourinho, who walked into the locker room first, looked at the tactical board and thought with his shoulders crossed.
He suppressed his anger and tried his best not to show it to the players for a while.
After 2 minutes, all the players returned, and Mourinho's expression had returned to calm.
"Boys, we made some mistakes in the first half. Several positions gave our opponents a lot of space. Let me talk to you carefully."
The score was behind in the first half, and it was still behind such a weak team. The Manchester United players thought that Mourinho would be angry and angry, but he did not and still patiently explained to everyone.
Mata, sitting on the left, was even a little distracted.
Is this the same Mourinho I knew when he was at Chelsea?
As time goes by, Mourinho has changed a lot, and he is no longer the coach with joy and anger written on his face during the Chelsea period.
After listening to Mourinho's teachings, the players ran onto the field and the second half continued.
Although I listened to a lot of game guidance during the halftime break and my mental focus on the game improved a lot, there were still problems in the second half.
Especially defensively.
With several main defensive players missing due to injuries, Manchester United's defense is in great trouble.
Especially the absence of Matic and Fellaini has simply caused Manchester United's central defense to be penetrated many times.
And the opponent is a team of Swansea's level.
Xia Xing had no choice but to pull back to defend, but as a result, Manchester United's offense began to struggle again.
In the 60th minute of the second half, Mourinho replaced vice-captain Carrick and replaced McTominay with Xia Xing as a double midfielder.In this way, it is slightly better.
However, Xia Xing still couldn't leave his defensive position.
After the two wingers are missing Ashley Young and Valencia, the overall wing offense and defense have dropped by a level.
Both full-backs are good offensively and defensively, and the players who replace them are not up to their level.
In the 78th minute of the game, Xia Xing once again sent a long pass to Rooney.
This is a rare opportunity for Manchester United to attack in the frontcourt today.
Rooney's physical fitness declined seriously, and he was unable to dribble the ball to create Longtan, and finally chose to wait with the ball behind his back.
Lingard moves forward quickly and Rooney passes back!
Lingard kicks up and shoots!
The ball hits the net!
2 is better than 2!
Manchester United finally equalized the score!
Wonderful cooperation!
Seeing this goal, Mourinho on the sidelines relaxed his brows a little.
At least it was an equalizer, which was justifiable in terms of face.
With about ten minutes left before the end of the game, Swansea tried their best.
For them, there is definitely hope for three points in this game.
These three points may be the decisive three points for them.
So they made a desperate move and pounced with all their might, hoping to create a miracle.
Not to mention, they actually created two threatening attacks.
A header from a free kick and a blast from long range.
All of them hit the goal frame, but in the end none of them could be converted into goals.
Romero's brilliant save negated Swansea's shot.
In the end, the score of the game was fixed at 2 to 2.
On another venue, the match between Manchester City and Huddersfield also ended 2-2.
As a result, the points gap between Manchester City and Manchester City is still 12 points, and a draw by Manchester United will not affect the lead.
Huddersfield also got a point, and Swansea are still behind them and still struggling in the relegation zone.
However, Mourinho does not care about the relegation situation. What he is most concerned about is the situation of Manchester City.
The day after the game, the entire Manchester United team had a day off and had a day off.
Most members of the coaching staff were also on vacation. Only he and Perrin, who took the initiative to stay with him, watched the video of yesterday's Manchester City game in the tactical training room.
Facing Huddersfield, Manchester City was also affected by some FIFA viruses.
Like Manchester United, many substitutes were sent.
However, they still played aggressively, and if it weren't for their bad luck and hit the post three times in the game, this game would have been a sure win.
The referee blew the whistle to end the game, and Perrin also turned off the screen and looked back at Mourinho.
"Even if they are just substitute players, Manchester City played very well."
"Yes, it's very good. In terms of bench depth, we are definitely not as good as Manchester City. Their lineup is really thick."
"They sent a full substitute lineup for this game, on the one hand to take into account the impact of the FIFA virus, and on the other hand to prepare for the next three Manchester derbies."
"I can see that this guy Guardiola is going to fight us desperately. They have no other possibility of competing for the championship this season, only the Champions League stage, so in these two Champions League quarter-final games, we There will be a lot of trouble, and it will definitely be more difficult than previous derbies."
"Their lineup is thick, but our defense is full of wounded soldiers. What should we do?"
Looking at Perrin's frown, Mourinho smiled slightly.
"Since our defense is full of injured soldiers, we will compete against Manchester City in the next two games!" (End of Chapter)
But even so, he still made many contributions to the team.
