Chapter 155: Don’t treat yourself as a guest when you come, let’s have tea!
"Hello, viewers, this is Sky TV.
"He is our old friend Carragher, and walking beside him is his old partner Alan Shearer.
"The highlight of the fifth round of the Premier League was narrated by the two of them.
"First introduce the starting lineups of both sides.
“Manchester United deployed a 4-3-3 attacking formation in that game.
"Goalkeeper De Gea,
"The back four of Rojo, Blackett, Evans and Rafael,
"The three midfielders are Leah, Blind and Herrera.
"The front three is Falcao, Rooney and Robin van Persie.
"Rooney's position is slightly further back, standing at No. 9 and a half, so his options are more flexible.
“The bench is full of good players such as Phil Jones, Fletcher, Ashley Young, Valencia, Fellaini, Hernandez and so on.
"It can be seen from the fierce attacking formation that Van Gaal is ready to fight in that game.
"Leicester City is still familiar with the 4-4-2 formation.
"Goalkeeper Schmeichel,
"The four defenders are De Laet, Konchesky, Wes Morgan, Danny Simpson,
"The four midfielders are Xia, Drinkwater, Cambiaso, Mahrez,
"The two forwards are Vardy and Ulloa.
"On the bench are Albrighton, James, Conoket, Schlupp, Hammond and other players.
“In a game against Wolfsburg, Leicester City fought for several positions.
“In that game, all the main players still played.
"It seems that Leicester City did not relax at all after that game."
After Carragher finished speaking, Alan Shearer next to him curled his lips: "Relax at all? Why should Leicester City relax? They are currently at the top of the league, and Manchester United is currently only 13th in the league." In a battle between strong and weak, the strong said the wrong thing.
Why relax.
Carragher: "What I said, no matter how lucky Leicester City is to win consecutive games, they are just promoted from the Premier League and have no background."
Alan Shearer: "Why am I so unfavorable to Leicester City?"
Carragher: "Because he didn't think they were good enough."
Alan Shearer: "Then please ask me, of the two teams in that game, who do I prefer to win?"
Did that sentence stop Carragher?
As a former Liverpool vice-captain, he would not expect Manchester United to win even if he were killed.
But if he had expressed his displeasure with Leicester City, how could he vomit it and eat it again?
After thinking for a long time, Carragher shook his head: "He decided to evaluate the game objectively. It doesn't matter who wins or loses."
Alan Shearer: "That game was objective? So we weren't objective anymore before?"
Carragher: "Then..."
Seeing Carragher's deflated look, Alan Shearer burst out laughing!
At this time on the court, the referee's whistle sounded.
Game start!
Manchester United took the lead at half-time!
"Herrera and Blind passed the ball and the ball came to the left wing.
"League caught the ball and faced Ulloa's pressing, and his ankle flicked!
"The one who escaped Ulloa's robbery!
"Mahrez steals the ball!
"Leah pushed forward again!
"The ball passed!
"Leah bypassed Mahrez's pressing and got the ball again!
"Just those two pieces are worth his 75 million euros!
“Sprint down the wing with the ball!
"Hit the middle!
"Rooney dropped back to catch the ball!
"Veteran Cambiasso is keeping an eye on Rooney!
"But Rooney didn't do it alone, he passed the ball to the left lightly!
"Falcao hits the ball and shoots furiously!
"The ball hit the near corner of the goal!
"The ball went in?
"So……
"The referee's whistle sounded, foul, the goal is invalid!
"He signaled that Falcao had just pushed someone outside the penalty area?
"Let them see the video replay.
"As expected.
"The moment Falcao received the ball, he pushed Leicester City defender Simpson and bought himself time and space.
"That penalty was no problem.
"Falcao didn't argue. He bent down and helped Simpson up.
"Aren't the players on both sides very friendly?"
In the opening wave of attacks, Manchester United almost blasted away Leicester City's goal.
The home team fans in the stands exclaimed for a while.
The game continued, Leicester City passed the ball to Drinkwater from the center.
Drinkwater saw an opportunity and took a long shot.
The shot had a good aim and good power, but the angle was a little too positive and was punched out by De Gea.
Coming from the east, it's Manchester United's attacking moment again.
"The ball goes to Herrera's feet!
"Straight pass to Rooney!
"Rooney knocked it to Leah!
"Leah's cross without stopping!
"Look for Robin van Persie who comes later!
"Van Persie volleyed from the far end of the penalty area!
"The ball slipped out of the goal!
“That shot was so cool!
“If it had been a little more positive, it would have been the best goal in the Premier League this round!
“Excellent!”
With two consecutive attacks, Manchester United had an absolute advantage in the first five minutes.
This is just a reflection of the tactics of both sides.
Leicester City stabilized the opening and did not make any rash advances.
Schmeichel's leg throw was thrown to Xia Xing who was returning to defense.
Xia Xing knocked the ball to De Laet.
The two of them looked at each other wrongly, and Xia Xing began to move forward quickly!
With the tacit understanding between brothers, Drayette knew what Xia Xing wanted to do!
He didn't release the ball and started controlling the ball where he was.
That gave Manchester United players an opportunity!
Robin van Persie and Herrera are pressing hard!
De Laet directly knocked...
But it’s not passed on!
It’s just a fake act!
He suddenly pulled the ball and made a long pass!
Stick to the left sideline and run straight ahead!
Ahead, Xia Xing has begun to speed up!
"Great ball protection from De Laet, he passed the ball!
"Wonderful pass!
"Xia received the ball near the center line!
"What choice will he make?
“Will it be advanced step by step?
"He went it alone!
"Xia started sprinting along the left wing with the ball!
"Leicester City, who have been defending with all their strength in the opening game,
"There was a sudden counterattack!
"Dong sprinted with the ball, and Herrera chased behind him!
"Emergency stop, speed up!
"Herrera is left behind!
"Blinder presses diagonally!
"Xia simply changed to the outside and then quickly returned to the wing!
"Blinder is also dead!
"Right back Rafael tackles from the front!
"That tackle was brutal!
"Xia picks up the ball and jumps!
"He got past Rafael's tackle!
"Wonderful dribbling skills!
"Xia has already rushed into the penalty area!
"Blackett steals the ball!
"Xia moves the ball to the outside again!
"Kick and volley!
"The ball goes straight into the corner!
"The ball went in!
"That goal was fantastic!
"Beat four people in a row and pass the level alone!
"Wonderful dribbling!
"Wonderful shot!
"Chinese people have a tradition that they like to serve tea to their guests.
"Xia Mian, who was born in China, went to his former home team.
“That’s how I gave them a cup of black tea!
"Thanks for our training!
"But I'm sorry, he must score tomorrow!"
