Chapter 773 Decisive forward thrust

The role of Xia Xing came into play.

For him, being a playmaker is only one aspect of his usefulness.

Creating goals and assisting in defense cannot fully summarize Xia Xing's contribution to the team.

For example, Xia Xing is exerting his effect now.

As long as he is on the court, he can contain at least two opposing defensive players.

This is just a basic number.

For example, just now, two defensive players were marking Xia Xing, and both of them allowed Xia Xing to find an opportunity to advance forward and shoot.

His containment effect puts great pressure on his opponents.

Likewise, the pressure on Manchester United's two full-backs is much less.

The defensive pressure was reduced, which made them feel a lot more relaxed.

The offensive resistance is also reduced, and many times they even only face the defense one-on-one on the wing.

It was already very easy for the two of them.

With Mata and Greenwood in front of them, they can both assist Luke Shaw and Dalot. Manchester United's wing offense has improved very much during this period.

In the 32nd minute of the game, Xia Xing dropped back to catch the ball in the middle, and the opponent's defense quickly caught up.

But Xia Xing played the ball instantly and the ball went straight to the right!

Find Dalot!

Dalot sprints quickly and catches the ball!

Speed ​​up with the ball!
Chilwell, the left midfielder in front of him, followed closely!

In this game, Rodgers put Chilwell on the left wing, giving him a lot of space.

As a talented left back from Leicester City's youth training, Rogers is not satisfied with this. He hopes that this young man can develop more offensive possibilities.

So this season, Chilwell's offensive attributes have also been greatly improved.

But because of this, Chilwell's time in Leicester City is running out.

A 23-year-old talented left back with an English household registration and several seasons of Premier League experience, he is a pretty good person.

Players like this are rare.

He has already been targeted by countless wealthy clubs, and it is surprising that he can stay on the team this season.

This summer, there is a high probability that he will leave.

The closest ones to him are Manchester City and Chelsea, both of which are negotiating transfer matters with Leicester City Club.

It is said that Leicester City's asking price is at least 5000 million.

After all, he is a young genius and a left-back who is scarce in international football, and he deserves more money.

This game may be my last game.

So on the court, Chilwell played very hard today.

For more than half an hour, Manchester United basically found no opportunities on his side.

Now, Xia Xing found Dalot with a pass, and Dalot sprinted with the ball!

Chilwell made a decisive move!

Dalot tried several passes but failed.

Just pass the ball to Greenwood!
Pass the ball diagonally, speed up and run around!

Greenwood leaned on Justin behind him, knocked across the wing, and then accelerated to sprint!
It's obvious that the two want to play two-on-one continuously!

But just when the ball was knocked across, Chilwell took the lead and poked the ball out!
Successful rescue!

Although he started a little slowly, with his excellent experience and positioning, he was able to squeeze Dalot behind him!

Wonderful defense!
Seeing that the attack on the right wing was fruitless, Xia Xing shook his head.

what a pity.

Xia Xing is very aware of Chilwell's defensive ability.

He had played with this young man during his time at Leicester City and knew his situation very well.

It's not easy for Dalot to attack now.

Simply, try the left side.

Three minutes later, Xia Xing once again tried to pass the ball to the left wing, looking for Luke Shaw.

Luke Xiao also moved forward after receiving the ball, accelerating and sprinting!
This time, he also ran into trouble. The right midfielder Albrighton in front of him is a tough guy who is good at both offense and defense.

Especially in terms of defense, he is definitely not inferior to ordinary full-backs.

This time when faced with Luke Xiao's blow, he went straight up to his body and fiercely pushed away Luke Xiao who was thrusting forward!
Although it was a foul, it destroyed the opponent's offense, which is considered a successful defense!

Watch Albrighton's defensive success.

Xia Xing recalled the 2015-2016 season that he missed so much.

At that time, Albrighton was an important contributor to the team's five crowns.

Although he is not the absolute main force of the team, he is an important rotation player.

Excellent in offense and defense, and active in running, he has become an important member of Ranieri's staff and has performed wonderfully in countless important games.

And now, he once again delivers a wonderful performance that is amazing.

Looking at the excellent defense of his former teammates, Xia Xing not only admired it, but also thought about it.

The two wingers pressed forward, but still failed to effectively score a goal.

If it is successfully defended a few more times, Leicester City's offense may slow down again.

It will be even more troublesome then.

Thinking of this, Xia Xing looked back.

At this time, Drinkwater also happened to look at him.

The two looked at each other in unison.

They nodded in unison.

Come up and try?
no problem!
it is good!
Next, Xia Xing still tried various offensive routines.

Go forward to find the striker, split wide to find the full-back.

But no matter what, it is difficult to find a good opportunity to score.

At this time the game has reached 40 minutes.

Faced with a continuous 0-1 deficit, Solskjaer on the sidelines was a little anxious.

But he had no better way.

Peilan was so anxious that he rubbed his hands together.

But Carrick's face remained calm.

Peilan asked, "Why aren't you in a hurry?"

Carrick pointed at Xia Xing: "Isn't he planning some offensive plan?"

Peilan looked confused: "How did you figure it out?"

Carrick smiled: "It feels like coming from a fellow midfielder."

"Do you feel like you can score a goal?"

"I feel like it's nine out of ten!"

"I love hearing that!"

The Manchester United coaching staff on the sidelines were chatting, and changes had already taken place on the court!
Xia Xing received the ball with his back and hit the left side of the ball.

Luke Xiao caught the ball, but when he saw the opponent's Albrighton pressing forward, he simply passed the ball back to Xia Xing again, and then accelerated his sprint!
Xia Xing can pass the ball to him!
But at this moment, Xia Xing suddenly dunked the ball and made a motion of dribbling the ball forward!

Ndidi and Tielemans immediately became nervous!
Is he planning to go it alone again?

But Xia Xing just made a fake move, protected the ball, and started dribbling the ball laterally to the right!
At this time Dalot has begun to speed up!

He even surpassed Chilwell!

Chilwell didn't show any weakness, followed quickly and never let him get the ball easily!

At this time Endidi and Tielemans are still following Xia Xing!

You can pass the ball, but you will never be allowed to advance forward!

The midfield dispute between the two sides has approached the right wing!
Xia Xing is happy!

This is exactly what he wants to see!

Dribbling the ball to the right, suddenly turned around and headed towards the opponent's goal!
Going forward?

Not!
Xia Xing hit a low ball with his right foot, and the ball rolled to the left!

Passed right between Ndidi and Tielemans!
At this time, a figure sprinted quickly and received the ball steadily!
It's Manchester United's No. 10!
Drinkwater! (End of chapter)
