Chapter 386 Sorry, I scored a goal
Perrin didn't feel much about Mourinho's comments about Drinkwater at the moment.
But a few years later, when he recalled the conversation between the two this year, it was then that he admired Mourinho.
This Portuguese guy is really a genius.
But at this time, Drinkwater is still the most shining player on the court.
His pass just now found Mahrez who was advancing quickly.
After receiving the ball, Mahrez broke through along the right wing.
The person guarding him on the wing was Xia Xing.
At the same level, Leicester City's two wings are flying together, and now they have become tit-for-tat opponents.
Mahrez dribbled the ball slowly, but Xia Xing did not pounce on it.
Regarding Mahrez's skills, Xia Xing really feels that he has improved a lot.
I wanted to have a great performance, but unfortunately, I can't do it today.
In the following period, Mahrez made continuous breakthroughs but failed to get past Xia Xing.
We have already conceded two goals and can no longer be conservative.
"Xia's pass was incredible!
"If you are an ordinary midfielder, you will definitely choose to play a short pass with Pogba.
Ibrahimovic gave in and deceived Morgan!
Rooney stepped in from the back and shot from a small angle into the near corner!
Xia Xing had been keeping an eye on Mahrez just now, so he gave James more opportunities.
Not only that, they also encountered bigger troubles.
Without Xia Xing, Ranieri has higher demands on Mahrez, and his assists and scoring tasks are even greater.
Since Xia Xing joined the team, he has quickly gained the love of his teammates.
"This pass is world class!"
And this summer, he also received invitations from some teams, but none from the top clubs.
They were very active in the back-and-forth attack against Manchester United.
Leicester City's attack from the right was also completely blocked.
This feeling of being respected and valued is really good.
Brothers are brothers, rivals are rivals, they are two different things.
Xia Xing shrugged.
During this period, Xia Xing reduced the number of forward attacks and continued to sweep the defense in large areas, focusing on wing defense.
After receiving the ball, Drinkwater forced a long shot, and the ball slipped out of the goal.
"But xia finally chose the long pass!
"And he didn't even look at Valencia on the right!
At the beginning of the second half, Leicester City performed well.
"Xia, your defensive ability seems to have become stronger again."
The ball hits the net!
Everyone in Leicester City was paying attention to Pogba's movements, but Xia Xing chose to pass the long ball to the far end!
Right back Valencia has already accelerated along the right wing!
At this time, we have arrived at the corner of the penalty area!
When people arrive, the ball arrives!
Valencia kicks and volleys!
After the halftime break, Leicester City first made substitution adjustments.
Central defender Huth stepped forward and Pogba made a short pass into the penalty area!
In the 75th minute of the game, Manchester United also began to make substitutions.
His dribbling skills are very strong and his starting speed is extremely fast.
Leicester City missed a great opportunity.
The ball also poked forward!
Then quickly circle around and catch the ball!
"In other words, he had already observed Valencia's movement and predicted his running speed and direction.
“He can also release the ball quickly and control the intensity and placement of the pass extremely well.
Even though Xia Xing is very strong now, he still doesn't rely on too much and just plays steadily.
Either it was destroyed or it was blocked.
In this way, Xia Xing still has the energy to keep an eye on James even while guarding Mahrez.
Even Xia Xing was happy for his brother.
He replaced Mendy and Huth, replaced Andy King and James, and the formation also changed to 3-4-3.
In the 31st minute of the game, Xia Xing tackled Mahrez for the third time and the ball fell to Pogba in the middle.
They finally scored!
The away team fans applauded excitedly in the stands!
"Your dribbling ability has also improved a lot. I don't dare to take action easily."
"After all, Pogba has also moved out of position. He will have a chance to score in the next step.
Especially Andy King and James, their continuous cooperation after coming on the field surprised the Manchester United players.
In the 80th minute, James sprinted quickly and passed Herrera!
After several consecutive changes of direction, he failed to get past Xia Xing. Mahrez had no choice but to choose a cross pass.
For the arrogant Mahrez, this is very unpleasant.
Unlike Vardy, Schmeichel and other Leicester City veterans, Mahrez used Leicester City as a springboard and did not have deep feelings.
For the next period of time, Leicester City's right wing gradually became quiet.
The ball hit the dead center!
As long as Xia Xing can be stopped, it doesn't matter if he gets a card!
But he didn't expect that Xia Xing would make an emergency stop!
These words were not polite, but Xia Xing's sincerity.
Especially James, his offensive sharpness in the frontcourt is no less than Mahrez.
Pogba passes the ball to Xia Xing, and then accelerates forward!
If Xia Xing passes the ball, Pogba will have a good chance!
But Xia Xing didn't choose to pass the ball!
In the 40th minute of the game, this was a one-on-one opportunity between Xia Xing and Pogba.
Facing the defense of his old friend Xia Xing, he naturally knew how difficult it was to defeat him.
After sending in new players, Manchester United's offense quickly achieved results.
After Pogba received the ball, he sprinted decisively with the ball!
After scoring the goal, Valencia quickly rushed to Xia Xing and hugged his new friend tightly.
Even Carragher could praise him, Xia Xing has definitely done it.
Ranieri on the side of the court stomped the ground hard!
Facing Mendy's defense, he easily changed directions continuously and suddenly pulled the ball and sprinted!
Mendy was passed!
At this time, Mahrez looked at Xia Xing with resentment on his face.
The shouts of Leicester City fans in the stands became louder and louder.
2 to 0!
Manchester United scores another goal!
This time even Carragher, Manchester United's arch-enemy, was full of praise.
With two goals in hand, Manchester United ended the first half.
Of course, this is also related to Xia Xing leaving the team.
He knew that it would be difficult for him to steal the ball, so he might as well just foul it!
Alan Shearer in the live broadcast room couldn't help but praise: "Pogba's pass, Rooney's shot, Manchester United's offensive efficiency is extremely high, and the goal is wonderful!"
"I'm really not used to praising Manchester United players, but this is an exception!
Nice pass!
Drinkwater was shaken away!
Xia Xing kept moving and started shooting!
35 meters away from the goal, the ball hit the net!
3 to 0!
Pogba and Rooney came off the field, and Herrera and Mata came on as substitutes.
Well done, James!
Despite this, Xia Xing still tried his best to stop him.
If you rush forward rashly, you are likely to get passed.
But he was instantly knocked down by Xia Xingfang!
It's a frontal tackle, no foul!
Mahrez hurriedly defended, but Xia Xing quickly got up and protected the ball!
Move horizontally and accelerate to sprint!
Sprint along the center towards the Leicester City penalty area!
This is the surprise defense that Xia Xing is best at, and old friends from Leicester City are very familiar with it!
Drinkwater sprinted quickly and ran straight towards the person!
Manchester United opens the scoring!
The ball went in!
1 to 0!
Trouble!
His guess was correct. After Pogba passed Mendy, the front was smooth.
His defensive ability is good, but it is far from Kanter's level.
Xia Xing knew this old friend very well.
So he chose to renew his contract with Leicester City, and then worked hard to improve his level, looking forward to a better future.
After scoring a goal first, Manchester United will play better next time.
Manchester United scores another goal!
Their victory is determined!
The excited teammates rushed to Xia Xing and hugged the hero of the goal!
But there was no smile on Xia Xing's face, and he was even a little sad.
After his teammates dispersed, he lowered his head and waved to the Leicester City die-hard stands.
Sorry, I scored a goal...
