Chapter 437 Go and overthrow Manchester City!
In the 60th minute of the second half, Mourinho simply used three substitutions.
It was Ibrahimovic, Rooney and Carrick again, the three veterans were replaced.
As long as the game is stable this season, Mourinho will let the three veterans rest.
In his tactical system, as long as these three people can maintain good condition, then he hopes to start them.
Mourinho also pays special attention to the physical problems of veterans.
Whenever possible, let the three veterans have a good rest.
Under such circumstances, the three of them also understood the coach's painstaking efforts and were grateful.
Even if the three players are off the field, Xia Xing and Pogba are still on the court.
There are also Manchester United youth training talents Rashford, Lingard and other players who came on the bench.
Next, the goals continue.
Accompanied by such a top-notch double midfielder, Mourinho is really envious.
In fact, in Mourinho's heart, the Manchester derby is only second.
The players also had serious expressions and responded to Mourinho with shouts!
"Go and overthrow Manchester City!"
In this EFL Cup final, Mourinho will play with all the main players!
Even though their players had just experienced a Europa League game, Mourinho still did not choose to rotate!
Is this the Red Devil's blood flowing in his body?
On the training ground, he told the players seriously: "If you want to rest, wait until you defeat Manchester City before resting!"

In the 40th minute of the first half, Xia Xing decisively intercepted the ball. De Bruyne, who was dribbling forward with the ball, staggered and the ball was poked!
The game had just started, and Xia Xing started with a critical attack!
Controlling the ball in the midfield, suddenly dribbling the ball along the middle!
If it were someone else, with a ten-point lead in the league points, they might make appropriate rotations and put their absolute focus on the EFL Cup final.
"You guys are not bad, eh."
Especially Manchester City, today's confrontation was particularly fierce.
Although the Manchester United soldiers are ready for the European war, they still have several important games ahead.
This sparking collision started from the first minute!

Three days after this game, Manchester United will usher in its first championship competition of the season-the English League Cup final.
The last time they met, Manchester United beat Manchester City 4-2.
Especially Xia Xing, his technical characteristics are more obvious.
With three passes and one shot, Xia Xing is the absolute star of Manchester United.
Such a result is quite cruel for Saint-Etienne.
"Man, you have been in good form recently. You are far ahead in the Premier League and have reached the top 16 of the Europa League."
Mourinho is still strong and Guardiola is also tough.
Even when he didn't return to Manchester United, it was the same when he was playing for Leicester City.
It is reasonable for a team like this to beat us.
Both games are very important.
"Then let's walk and see."
Against Manchester City, Xia Xing always performed at the top level.
Veteran Carrick did not start, and the strong Fellaini partnered with Xia Xing.
In the draw two days later, Manchester United's opponents in the quarter-finals were announced.

This is only the 9th minute of the game!
Fellaini quickly followed up and passed diagonally to the left!
At this time, Rooney wandered to the left, caught the ball, and hit it horizontally!
Xia Xing is still very active in this competition.
In the 18th minute of the game, Aguero received De Bruyne's mid-air pass and shot into the net!
Guardiola has a technical style of play that emphasizes passing and control, but even so, his Manchester City players are not afraid of physical confrontation at all!
In the midfield position, Yaya Toure and Fernandinho swept away, putting great pressure on Manchester United's midfield and frontcourt offense.
However, on Manchester United's side, Mourinho's formation today was also very targeted.
Carrick went to the left wing to fill in, leaving the center to Xia Xing!
Xia Xing passes the ball to Pogba, Pogba makes a short pass forward, and Xia Xing accelerates to catch the ball!
The two made a wonderful one-two match!
1 to 1!
Faced with Guardiola's full lineup, Mourinho also went all out.
For both sides, they are looking forward to victory.
As the third-placed team in the league, they still maintain their expectations for the league championship.
About 37 meters away from the goal, Xia Xing did not wait for Pogba, who was sprinting forward to catch the ball again, but directly kicked off and shot!
The main reason why he has to go all out in this game is that he wants to beat Guardiola.
In the end, the French dark horse sadly left the Europa League stage.
But thinking that their opponent was such a powerful Manchester United, the French fans were relieved.
Compared with their opponents, these two people also have first-rate physical fitness and excellent defensive abilities.
Rostov from the Russian Premier League.

In the next period of time, the two sides began to face off in the midfield.
After all, the game against Manchester City is just a Premier League match, so even if we lose, it's no big deal.
But Mourinho is exactly the opposite.
There is the Ballon d'Or winner Xia Xing, there is the billionaire Pogba, there is the former French No. 1 player Zlatan Ibrahimovic, there is Rooney, Carrick...
"But your lead will be reduced to 7 points in this game. Manchester City will win."
"Absolutely impossible, Manchester United's lead is about to become 13 points!"
Manchester United played with all its main players, including Xia Xing, Pogba, Rooney, Ibrahimovic and other players.
