Chapter 390 Just fight for your body, just do it raw
When Xia Xing came on as a substitute, Peilan was still muttering a little.
"He said he has seen the problems in Stoke City. Is it true or false..."
Mourinho's eyes were determined: "Xia never talks big, I believe him."
Unexpectedly, Xia Xing's first pass on the field resulted in a wonderful assist!
The pass that traveled half the court accurately found Martial who was penetrating forward!
Passing takes more than half of the credit for this goal!
At this time, Perrin was dumbfounded: "Any pass like this is fine..."
And Mourinho kept nodding.
good, very good!
In fact, Mourinho's heart was moved when Xia Xing said those words before his appearance.
It's just this pass, it's so difficult.
You know, one of the best ways to break through a dense defense is to shoot from long range!
This long-range shot was powerful and heavy, like a flying fireball, going straight into the upper right corner of the goal!
It's so fast and powerful that even the camera can't keep up with the field of view!
At this time, the time had reached the 88th minute, and the ball returned to the midfield again.
Because Xia Xing didn't give them a chance!
38 meters away from the goal, Xia Xing decisively kicked off the shot!
After all, when the ball is passed, he runs over and does it in one go. This is the basic quality of a forward.
But Martial's movement has become the simplest link.
Manchester United started with full firepower and launched a rapid attack into Stoke City's half.
Although no goal was scored, Manchester United's offense continued.
If that's the case, then do it yourself!
At this time, the game has reached the 85th minute, and both sides have made several substitutions.
Fellaini followed Arnautovic closely, targeting Stoke City's No. 10.
Except for the defender's mistake just now, there are no big defensive holes.
Lingard's attack was also touched by the goalkeeper's fingertips, and he almost scored.
Especially Xia Xing's position is still on the left, further away from Martial, making it more difficult to pass the ball.
Before Xia Xing came on as a substitute, they thought they could score three points in this game.
Now Xia Xing misses the feeling of having a center in the frontcourt.
The Stoke City goalkeeper stretched out his hand to defend, but only felt a gust of wind!
But they still held on firmly, did not concede a goal, and maintained a 1-1 draw.
But now, Xia Xing defended Shaqiri, cutting off Stoke City's best passing point.
For Manchester United, Mourinho replaced Mata and Fellaini and replaced him with Rashford and Mkhitaryan.
Especially Xia Xing, his physical advantage is very obvious.
Between the left back and the left center back, the frequency of the two's attacks is unstable, and sometimes there are slight loopholes.
Even if you can catch it, it will be difficult to pass it on.
It's obvious that they want to keep the tie.
Let him play and see?
Although Manchester United also fought hard just now, they lacked integrity and the midfielders did not have much defensive focus.
Luke Xiao sprinted quickly and shot in the penalty area!
The ball missed slightly, just a little!
On the left wing, after defending Shaqiri, Xia Xing was also involved, affecting the offensive efficiency.
Luke Xiao, who was in mediocre form in the first half, also showed his ability to assist and cooperated with Xia Xing tacitly!
Two consecutive one-twos made Stoke City's defense very embarrassing!
In the 71st minute of the game, Xia Xing sprinted with the ball again!
The ball was suddenly distributed on the line of the penalty area and passed to Luke Shaw who was penetrating forward!
Able to quickly find out the opponent's vulnerabilities, and then make targeted measures to deliver a fatal blow after coming off the bench.
The sprint along the left wing was too much for Stoke City!
Under Xia Xing's defensive organization, Stoke City's offense suffered setbacks one after another.
Xia Xing, Fellaini, and Herrera are all aggressive types.
After all, Martial on the front line is not a center, and his ability to shoot the ball is average. He received Xia Xing's pass twice in a row, but both were wasted.
In fact, Mourinho has already seen the opponent's loopholes.
Although it only equalized the score, Xia Xing's appearance gave the opponent huge confidence!
Our organizational core is here!
Now, we will win!
After Xia Xing came on as a substitute, they just wanted to take away a point from Old Trafford, which was good.
But this time Xia Xing did not pass the ball forward.
As a result, the high and fast players on the front line were instantly disabled.
But as long as he approaches the penalty area, he will be suppressed by Stoke City's defense.
This wonderful assist turned Manchester United's situation around instantly.
After the two wing players came on the court, they did create a lot of opportunities.
At this moment, Mourinho suddenly thought of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, the substitute during the Ferguson era.
Just work hard on your body and do it raw!
Several consecutive body collisions made Stoke City very much unable to bear it.
This time it was an attack from the right, a collaboration between Herrera and Lingard.
Before it was Robin van Persie, now it's Ibrahimovic. Having a world-class center is equivalent to having a great fulcrum.
In fact, Mourinho also knows that it is best to replace him with a center forward.
This young man is awesome!
Every time Xia Xing steals the ball, he immediately launches a counterattack!
Xia Xing directly knocked away the defense. This time he advanced decisively, resolutely and violently!
This attack broke Stoke City's midfield system!
By the time the defender made the move, it was already too late!
Maybe his technique isn't the best, but his insight into the court is absolutely top-notch.
Rashford passed the ball back, handed it to Xia Xing behind him, and then quickly moved forward.
On the other hand, this fleeting time is too difficult to seize.
Stoke City made substitutions, all in defensive positions.
And today's summer trip is the same.
On the one hand, they don't have many loopholes. After all, Manchester United's offense is not very strong.
This is the 60th minute of the game, and there is still half an hour before the end of the game.
This young man has very good skills and a great outlook on the overall situation, but it is hard to say how good he is at seeing the game.
However, the two centers in the team, Ibrahimovic and Rooney, are both physically exhausted. They just finished playing the away game two days ago and cannot run anymore. They were not even included in the 18-man roster for this game.
Stoke City's attack was fruitless, and their defensive pressure suddenly increased.
Several assists and complementary defenses blocked Manchester United's passing position very accurately, leaving Xia Xing at a loss.
Therefore, Mourinho is not very sure about Xia Xing's firm words.
The current Martial obviously cannot do this.
He was once the strongest player on Manchester United's bench.
He took a little control and suddenly accelerated diagonally!
Go straight to the middle of the penalty area and speed up!
Two Stoke City defenders quickly closed the door to defend!
But how can they lock it down?
But speaking of which, Stoke City's defense was really good.
Many Stoke City players turned left, which put a lot of pressure on Xia Xing.
But at this moment, he was completely convinced.
Two players with strong breakthrough ability come on the court and strive to create opportunities.
Facing a technical team like Stoke City, Xia Xing had no intention of competing with them technically.
But it is too difficult to catch this loophole.
The ball hits the net!
Continuous attacks made Stoke City's defense crumbling.
The iron barrel formation defense is designed to defeat this technical winger.
"The ball went in!
"2 to 1!
"Manchester United scored the winning goal!
"Xia became Manchester United's savior!
“His wonderful long-range shots are a perfect interpretation of the aesthetics of violence!
“Excellent!”
