Chapter 850 What happened?
They lost to Young Boys of Bern in the Champions League and Aston Villa in the league. Manchester United suffered two consecutive defeats.
But it was okay in the European war and I quickly recovered. In the end, they successfully qualified first in the group.
But in the league, they encountered a wave of consecutive defeats.
A week later, in the seventh round of the Premier League, Manchester United faced Everton at home.
Manchester United still has more experience playing against Everton.
They were in good shape for this game.
However, Everton are in better form.
Goalkeeper Pickford, in particular, was like Superman, defusing Manchester United's shots one by one.
In the 67th minute of the game, Everton forward Rissarisson blasted a shot away from Manchester United's goal!
1 is better than 0!
Everton broke the deadlock.
It's really troublesome to concede a goal even though you can't score a goal for a long time.
Fortunately, Xia Xing is here.
In the 81st minute of the game, Xia Xing also took advantage of a long-range shot opportunity and finally broke through the goal guarded by Pickford.
This shot dropped rapidly and went straight into the upper right corner of the goal!
1 is better than 1!
Manchester United finally equalized!
And this is also the final score.
Manchester United tied with its opponents and unfortunately suffered two games without a win.
And this was just the beginning of a bad time.
On the national team match day next week, Manchester United will return again and visit Leicester City to challenge Leicester City.
This is the eighth round of the Premier League.
Manchester United were in extremely poor shape in this game.
They encountered the FIFA virus, and many of their main players were in poor physical fitness and condition, even main players such as Cristiano Ronaldo, Matic, and Maguire.
As soon as the game started, Leicester City seized the opportunity to counterattack and ripped apart the defensive line of Matic and Maguire.
The ball is passed to Vardy on the striker!
Vardy received the ball and rushed into the penalty area, easily pushing the ball into the net!
1-0, Leicester City scored first!
In the 19th minute, this time it was another diagonal pass from Tielemans, looking for Iheanacho on the front line. The pass was very accurate!
Iheanacho accelerated with the ball and hit the middle!
It's Vardy again!
A quick tackle and the ball hit the lower right corner of the goal!
So fast, there is nothing De Gea can do!
2 is better than 0!
Leicester City scores one more!
Vardy scored twice!
Manchester United's defense was full of holes and was scored twice by the opponent's offensive core.
However, someone from Manchester United also made the same response.
In the 31st minute of the game, after Xia Xing stole the ball in the middle, he suddenly moved forward quickly!
He passed two defensive players in a row and shot a blast from outside the penalty area!
The ball hit the net!
1 is better than 2!
Manchester United gets a goal back!
And five minutes later, Xia Xing scored directly with a free kick!
The ball was played very trickyly!
Wonderful!
2 is better than 2!
Manchester United equalized the score tenaciously!
Captain Xia Xing was surrounded by everyone in the center, listening to the applause of the visiting fans in the stands.
Maybe there was some applause from the home team fans.
After all, Xia Xing is their pride.
But Leicester City players were in no mood for nostalgia. They needed to score as soon as possible to take the lead again.
In the injury time of the first half, Madison's corner kick was assisted by defender Se Yunju with a header and the ball hit the net.
3 is better than 2!
Leicester City takes the lead again!
In the second half, the team changed sides and fought again, but Manchester United was still in a sluggish state.
Leicester City guarded Xia Xing tightly and did not give him another chance.
And the opportunities that Xia Xing created for his teammates by attracting the defense were not seized.
Even Cristiano Ronaldo was replaced early due to physical problems. In the 88th minute of the game, Albrighton, who came on as a substitute, scored with a long shot, once again helping the Blue Fox.
4 to 2, Leicester City is completely stable.
In the end, Manchester United lost away from home and Solskjaer's team lost three games.
And that's not the worst.
A week later, Manchester United ushered in a focus game in the English League Cup.
The popularity of this game even exceeds that of the Premier League.
Manchester United vs Liverpool.
The significance of this game is no longer just a matter of mortal enemies, but also a battle of honor.
After a losing streak, Manchester United has slipped to third place in the league.
Manchester City and Liverpool are ranked ahead of them respectively.
If Manchester United can win against Liverpool in this game, although it will have no impact on the Premier League rankings, it will be a good opportunity to boost momentum.
It has a great motivating effect on Manchester United's recent league decline.
However, how easy is it to win against such a tough Liverpool?
However, there is good news in this game, that is, Mane is absent due to injury.
Liverpool's super strong front trident is only supported by Firmino and Salah.
Diogo Jota, who has stepped in, has been in average form recently, so the pressure on Manchester United's defense can be slightly reduced.
But what everyone didn't expect was that it was Jota who broke out first in this game.
In the fifth minute of the game, Jota made an exquisite pass back into the penalty area and found the unmarked Naby Keita.
Naby Keita calmly fired a low shot and the ball hit the net!
1 is better than 0!
Liverpool scores first!
In the 13th minute, this time it was Arnold's cross from the wing, and Jota landed accurately!
Kick off and shoot!
The ball hit the net!
2 is better than 0!
Liverpool scores another goal!
In less than fifteen minutes, Liverpool scored two goals in a row!
Jota's pass and shot shocked Manchester United fans!
After Jota just scored, Manchester United players surrounded the referee and asked for an explanation.
They thought Jota was offside before shooting.
But after VAR replay, it was determined that the goal was valid!
Still 2-0!
Next, Liverpool's goals continued.
In the 38th minute of the game, Salah received a diagonal pass from Naby Keita and dribbled the ball into the goal.
Despite being guarded by Maguire and Lindelof, he still took a shot and the ball rolled into a blind corner.
3 is better than 0!
Liverpool scores another goal!
It's not over yet!
In the 4th minute of stoppage time, Jota once again received the ball in the penalty area and decisively swept to the far end!
Salah easily pushed the shot into the net!
4 is better than 0!
Liverpool went crazy!
The Manchester United soldiers who returned to the locker room were a little confused.
Even Xia Xing didn't understand what was happening.
Carragher was dancing excitedly in the live broadcast room!
"Our Liverpool state is up! No one can stop it! Hahahaha! 4-0, great! It will continue in the second half. What a wonderful day!"
Sure enough, Liverpool didn't stop scoring goals in the second half.
In the 50th minute of the game, Salah made another breakthrough outside the penalty area.
After receiving a pass from Henderson, Salah danced his way past Luke Shaw and took a shot from the penalty area line!
The ball goes straight into the net!
5 is better than 0!
Liverpool are still scoring goals!
They really went crazy today!
Although Manchester United attacked with all their strength afterwards, their poor physical fitness and sluggish state left them unable to fight back.
In this game, Manchester United was simply like a relegation team, being beaten so hard that they couldn't hold their head high in front of Liverpool.
Xia Xing tried his best to defend, but to no avail.
After taking a five-goal lead, Manchester United also replaced a number of young players to improve.
This rarely happened in previous double red meetings.
In the end, Manchester United suffered a humiliating defeat at home and lost face... (End of this chapter)
