Chapter 808: Europa League battle, long-handled scimitar

In the 85th minute of the game, Manchester United got a free kick opportunity with Mata's breakthrough from the middle.

This ball is relatively straight, about 30 meters away from the goal.

The location is okay.

Xia Xing stood in front of the ball and was wiping it.

At this time, on the sidelines of the court, Ibrahimovic, who had just been substituted, shouted loudly!

"Guys! Make sure you close the angle! That guy is going to shoot right away!"

As a former Manchester United teammate, Ibrahimovic knows Xia Xing's temper very well.

You know, that guy is a super genius who once led Manchester United to create the biggest miracle in team history.

He would definitely not miss such a good opportunity.

Xia Xing stood in front of the ball, looking at the wall in front of him with a calm expression.

This position is very upright, but it’s not easy to find an angle, and it’s not easy to exert force.

But it’s also hard for the goalkeeper.

Because the shooter can shoot in any direction and angle, it is difficult to choose.

Donnarumma stood in front of the goal with a serious expression, directing his teammates to line up the wall.

Xia Xing, on the other hand, remained expressionless, looking in the direction of the goal as if in a daze.

He didn't even direct his Manchester United teammates, allowing several teammates to run through the wall to cover him.

There is no one around to cover and cooperate, so there is no need.

Because everyone in AC Milan knows very well that with Xia Xing's ball, he will most likely choose to shoot.

So I just played my cards right.

The referee's whistle sounded and Xia Xing retreated slowly.

Looking at the tall defensive player on the opposite side, Xia Xing didn't care.

Run up, accelerate, shoot!

This shot is a blast from the outside of the instep!
The ball flew towards the right side of the body!
But when Donnarumma moved quickly, he suddenly found that the ball was spinning away from the other side!

This shot has such a wide arc!
Donnarumma tried to move again, but it was too late, his center of gravity moved, and it was over!
The ball was like a scimitar in the air, but it was not a full-moon scimitar, but a long-handled scimitar!

The sudden drop was like a stab in the heart of AC Milan fans!

Straight into the net!
The ball went in!
1 is better than 1!

Manchester United scored a stunning goal!
This goal will determine the final victory!

Because this is an away goal!
If AC Milan wants to reverse, they must score two more goals to offset Manchester United's away goal advantage!
But the game is about to enter injury time!

They have almost been pushed off the cliff!

There is absolutely no hope!

The San Siro stadium fell silent for a moment.

A moment later, the cheers of Manchester United fans started.

They even paused for a moment before they believed the killer scene they saw before them!
It's amazing!
In the next few minutes, they enjoyed the joy of the victory and cheered wildly in celebration!

In the end, Manchester United did not concede any more goals, and they maintained the tie!
The referee's whistle sounds!
Manchester United won the opponent tenaciously with a total score of 2 to 1!
Advance to the quarterfinals!

It's not easy!
Xia Xing wiped his sweat.

This game is definitely more difficult and exciting than last season's Europa League final.

After winning against the Rossoneri, it should be easier next time.

Sure enough.

In the quarter-finals, Manchester United met Granada.

Another team from La Liga.

They were very lucky in this Europa League match, as their opponents were all weak.

The opponent in the quarter-finals is the Norwegian team Molde, which is very weak.

But despite this, they still played hard, and finally won with a total score of 3-2.

With such strength, against Manchester United, the result can be imagined.

In the first round at home in Granada, Manchester United had a clear advantage.

This team does not have any big-name stars, and the most famous one is their center Soldado.

A down-and-out player from Real Madrid's youth training camp, a former genius who was lost to everyone. In the summer of 2013, he reached his most glorious moment when he transferred from Valencia to Tottenham for 3000 million euros, shouldering the important task of destroying the city.

But the final result is that it will be sold at a half discount two years later.

Levi, who doesn't like selling people, can't stand a forward who can't score goals.

But even so, he is currently Granada's biggest player.

Other than that, nothing more.

Facing Manchester United, they had almost no ability to resist.

The only thing that can affect Manchester United's victory is their own state.

After all, Manchester United's league tasks are very heavy during this period. April is a critical moment in the Premier League, and Manchester United must rotate.

Manchester United, which plays semi-mainly, still has an overwhelming advantage even so.

In the first round away from home, Manchester United still adopted a familiar formation and style of play.

The front trident is very active and attacks the opponent fiercely on the court.

However, their scoring efficiency still needs to be improved.

But having said that, if such a talented young player with excellent dribbling ability is also very capable of scoring goals, wouldn't he be the next Ronaldo or Messi?

After all, he is still young and still needs time to grow.

Xia Xing opened the scoring with an understated volley from the top of the penalty area to help the team take the lead.

1 is better than 0!

And then, he started feeding the ball to his teammates crazily.

Lack of experience and lack of form, just find your form on the court!
In the 68th minute of the second half, Rashford received a pass from Xia Xing and finally broke into the penalty area and scored with a low shot.

2-0, Manchester United expanded its lead.

Faced with an opponent of this level of strength, Manchester United was obviously a little relaxed.

But Solskjaer on the sidelines also understood.

It is normal for this situation to occur when the players are under high pressure and in poor physical condition in the League Cup.

After all, the opponent is weak, so it would be good to take this opportunity to relax.

In the end, Manchester United defeated their opponent 2-0 in this game.

Despite the many negative impacts of not being in the best condition, having a semi-substitute lineup, and playing away games, they were able to win easily and score two away goals.

This opponent is too weak.

Returning to Old Trafford in the second round, Solskjaer was completely relaxed and sent out many substitute players.

Interestingly, this time he put Pogba on the bench after returning from injury.

Xia Xing frowned slightly, feeling a little unhappy.

But he was too lazy to communicate with Solskjaer.

Even if you go to him, you probably will say this.

Only by showing your worth will it be easy to sell.

Well, that's it.

So let's just leave it like that, I don't care about Pogba.

In this game, Rashford, James and other offensive players all took turns. Cavani was in the middle, and B Fee, Xia Xing and Greenwood were in the frontcourt.

In the first half, Xia Xing sent many wonderful passes, but failed to score.

Especially B fee, I worked hard enough, but my feet feel average today.

Greenwood is even more exhausted.

The two strike partners took turns, but he still persisted.

But the opponent is the same as always.

During the halftime break, Solskjaer made substitutions.

He replaced B Fee and Greenwood and replaced them with Pogba and Martial.

Substitute players to maintain lineup stability.

But when the teammates heard about this substitution adjustment, they all quietly turned around and looked at Xia Xing... (End of this chapter)
