Chapter 783 Deja Vu

The appearance of Ighalo and Lingard made Solskjaer regretful.

I regret not sending two of them earlier.

Just now he was expecting Greenwood and James to create miracles, but in the end he left the game with regret.

The two have talent, but lack experience on this kind of stage.

Facing Roma's fierce defense, the two failed to find a better solution.

After Ighalo and Lingard came on the court, the team's situation obviously changed.

Ighalo made a fulcrum in the penalty area, received passes from the backcourt, and frequently fed the ball to his teammates.

During this period, Rashford suddenly had an idea and had many opportunities.

It's all because there is a pillar center in front who can play, and Rashford can perform in a better state.

Lingard's skills are not very good, but his active running and excellent body make Roma's defense very uncomfortable.

Now the game is not far from the end, and Roma's defensive players have also reached the critical point of physical fitness after experiencing a wave of fierce defense.

Speaking of which, it is appropriate for Ighalo and Lingard to appear at this time.

Carrick's eyes flashed on the sidelines: "There is hope! Although Greenwood and James did not score just now, they broke down the opponent's defense. Now that their physical fitness has declined, we have a chance."

Solskjaer also nodded: "It depends on whether we can seize the opportunity."

Whether you can seize the opportunity is indeed a big question.

During this period, Ighalo and Lingard created many shooting opportunities, but under the defense of Roma goalkeeper Lopez, they all came to nothing.

Rashford's close-range volley after advancing forward was also punched out by Lopez.

Frequent world-class saves made Manchester United very depressed when they attacked.

They tried their best but still couldn't score.

In the counterattack, Mkhitaryan's fast break was easily resolved by De Gea.

Rome's only chance was gone.

Time passed by minute by second, and the game had reached the 89th minute.

The coaches of both sides have begun to warm up the substitute players in preparation for overtime.

However, the Manchester United players on the court are still making their final efforts.

Players have been very physically exhausted recently.

Just finished the remaining Premier League games in a double match in one week, and then started playing in the Europa League.

Now everyone's physical fitness is at the end of its tether.

It would be best if the battle can be ended within 90 minutes.

After Matic stole the ball, he made a long pass into the penalty area to find Ighalo.

The quality of this pass is average. Ighalo tried hard to get the top of the ball, but it was still a little biased.

The ball flew towards the sideline and Lingard sprinted quickly to stop the ball before it went out of bounds.

But Kolarov made a fierce tackle and shoveled the ball towards the midfield.

Rescued.

Cristante was quick and ran towards the ball, trying to clear the ball again and kick it towards the Manchester United half.

But unexpectedly, he was knocked away by a strong body!

It’s summer trip!
He used his strong body to knock Cristante 5 or 6 meters away!

At this time the ball fell to his feet!
Cristante's midfield partner Diawara quickly filled in to help defend Xia Xing!
After Xia Xing knocked Cristante away, he flicked the ball with his right foot, and the ball passed between the legs of Diawara who was grabbing it!
One more person!
At this time, there is an open space in front of Xia Xing!

The Roma midfield is empty!

The defensive players rushed forward, filled in, helped defend, and rushed towards Xia Xing with all their strength!

But it’s too far away from Xia Xing!
Once Xia Xing charges up, he will definitely be a huge threat!
But at this moment, no one expected that Xia Xing did not advance with the ball!

Likewise, he didn't choose to pass the ball!

He shot! This shot was a surprise!
The Roma defenders didn't expect it!

This is about 28 meters away from the goal, slightly left of the center.

Rashford sped up on the left wing, but he could no longer get up. Now his physical fitness has reached the limit, and Martial on the sidelines is ready to replace him.

Although Lingard on the right has good physical fitness and good condition, his skills are average.

Ighalo in the middle was surrounded by defensive players and had little chance.

So at this time, no matter who you pass it to, it is not a good choice.

The reason why Xia Xing did not advance with the ball was because he just looked up and saw goalkeeper Lopez positioned a little forward.

He is directing the defensive line players to set up the defensive line.

At this time, Xia Xing took action decisively without any hesitation!

Is it a blast?

Everyone would think so.

but not!
Xia Xing chose the lob!
The ball flew up quickly, then fell rapidly, heading straight for the net!

Goalkeeper Lopez is upset!
He hurriedly retreated, but it was too late!
Leap hard and lift high!

His fingertips touched the ball!
Rescued?

The ball was rubbed by him, but it slowed down slightly for a moment, and still fell towards the net!

Falling against the doorpost!

Hit the goal line!
Then, it bounces off the ground, jumps again, and lobs into the net!

The ball went in!
3 is better than 2!

Thunderous applause and cheers instantly erupted in the stadium!

Countless Manchester United fans cheered and enjoyed the joy of the final victory!
And the Manchester United fans in front of the TV had already jumped up, listening to the cheers on the field and enjoying Alan Shearer's praise, and they were very happy!

"The ball went in!

“It’s absolutely wonderful!
"Scoring such a wonderful winning goal in the 90th minute of the game,
“They are only a few steps away from victory!
"Xia's goal is so wonderful!
“I don’t know what he was thinking about the lob shot from more than 20 meters away, it’s quite bold!
"According to his previous method, whether he chooses to advance with the ball or hit the goal hard, it will be no problem.
"But at this moment, he chose to lob!
“The ball is faster and more accurate than ordinary lob shots!

“It’s so wonderful, so great!
"Perfect goal!

"Perfect kill!

"Xia is simply great!"

In the stadium, Xia Xing punched hard and finally let out a breath of suppressed turbid air!

You must know that they worked too hard during the second half.

Being fiercely defended by his opponent and unable to attack, Xia Xing was extremely anxious.

But now, I am at ease!
Lore!

The teammates rushed to Xia Xing and hugged the captain tightly!

Xia Xing opened his arms and hugged his teammates hard!

At this time, in the VIP room of the stadium, Totti and De Rossi were silent for a long time.

After a long time, Totti slowly said: "This shot is so beautiful, so beautiful."

De Rossi glanced at him: "Do you feel familiar?"
