Chapter 450 Brave Attack

Less than 10 minutes into the game, players from both sides brought the night to a climax.

Hazard and Xia Xing scored in exactly the same way. Both used their wonderful personal skills to pass several people and then score.

Brilliant.

On the side of the court, Conte had just finished celebrating when Mourinho jumped up and punched again.

Even Carragher was happy: "This game is really interesting. The two coaches even steal the spotlight more than the players. No matter what the result of the game is, the camera feeling of today's game is completely full."

Both sides scored one goal each, and the game continued to be fierce.

Fabregas continuously cooperated with his teammates' short passes and suddenly made a pass into the penalty area!
Diego Costa made a quick forward move and successfully countered offside!
Volley shot in the penalty area!

De Gea hits the ball with both fists!
Manchester United’s goalkeeper shows off his power again!
A few minutes later, it was Chelsea's wing attack again.

Hazard passed the oncoming Fellaini and made a decisive long pass into the penalty area!

William gets in from behind and kicks him!
The ball rolls into the net!

The referee's whistle blew!
Offside first, the goal is invalid!
Although they failed to change the score, Chelsea's two attacks were very threatening.

Compared with Chelsea, Manchester United's defense is indeed their shortcoming.

Looking at the defenders in front of him, De Gea was worried...

However, Manchester United also continued to attack.

Pogba, who had just assisted Xia Xing, took the kick himself this time.

After receiving the ball, he faked a pass and passed Cesc Fabregas' defense.

A blast from outside the penalty area!

Courtois made a great save!

The ball bounced into the goal!
Terry got ahead of Ibrahimovic and made a big-footed save!
A few minutes later, it was Xia Xing's activity on the left wing again!
This time he made a cross at a 45-degree angle!
Find Ibrahimovic!
Ibrahimovic jumped high and beat Terry with a header!
The ball went over the goal and Manchester United missed the opportunity!
This is not Ibrahimovic's header problem, but Terry's defensive success.

Even without Ibrahimovic's jumping ability, it is not as good as before, but Terry has a lot of experience.

Squeezing Ibrahimovic underneath him, Dafeng was unable to use his full strength, and ultimately the angle of his header was not controlled.

Although the two attacks did not score a goal, Chelsea's defense was shocked into a cold sweat.

In this way, both sides continued to attack fiercely, and the first half of the game was very exciting.

When the referee blew the whistle to end the first half, the fans in the stands were even a little confused.

what?
Is this half the game over?
Why do I feel like I have just begun...

The score of 1 to 1 is not particularly big, but the fans enjoyed it.

Returning to the locker room, many players felt tired.

"This game is one of the hardest games to play this season."

"Yes, the Chelsea team performed really well today."

The players were chatting, and Mourinho was not in a hurry to talk about tactics, just letting everyone calm down.

After 2 minutes, he spoke.

"Guys, you played well in this first half.
"Although we are not leading, I see your fighting spirit,
"I'm quite satisfied with your performance.

“But in the second half, I hope your defense will be more active and your offense more determined!
"Chelsea had two attacks in the first half and our defense was out of position.
"If Fabregas and Willian were at their peak, they would definitely be able to score goals.

“It’s definitely down to luck that we didn’t concede a goal.

“In the second half, I asked the midfield line and defense line to be closer together and to increase running!
"And when counterattacking, you must also be resolute," Xia and Pogba did a good job, Fellaini, you can still take some risks, it doesn't matter.

"In the attack in the 42nd minute of the game, your counterattack position was better, but you still passed it to xia,

"If you rush forward, Xia can completely retreat to cover the position, and he has already started to retreat.

"But you ended up passing the ball to him and he didn't have a better time to handle it.
“So guys, be brave in the second half!
"After 45 minutes, keep the victory at Old Trafford!"

In the second half, the sides changed sides and fought again, and the two sides still fought fiercely.

Compared with the first half, more fighting in the second half occurred in the midfield position.

Manchester United players, led by Xia Xing, listened to Mourinho's new requirements and expanded their defensive coverage.

Xia Xing and Fellaini are both in good physical condition and have excellent defense.

Pogba also chose his positions wisely and was very active today.

Such three midfielders engaged in hand-to-hand combat, which made it difficult for Chelsea's four midfielders.

After continuously destroying the ball, Manchester United finally had a good opportunity.

In the 66th minute of the game, Xia Xing shoveled in the middle, and Hazard was overjoyed!

This tackle was too reckless!

As long as Azar moves to the left, he can pass Xia Xing!
For a moment, Azar felt extremely confident.

They say you are talented and have excellent defensive ability, but I think you are just average.

This level of defense cannot stop me!

But just after Xia Xing's shovel was empty, Azar suddenly felt a gust of wind coming!

Directly in front, Valencia sprinted quickly and the tackle came!

Manchester United tackles twice!
Only then did Hazard understand that Xia Xing did not intend to dribble the ball himself, but wanted to force himself into Valencia's defense!
His guess was absolutely correct!
Hazard was very active during this period, Xia Xing needed midfield organization, and it was impossible to defend man-to-man.

Even with the help of Fellaini and his teammates, it is difficult to guard him.

So Xia Xing simply pretended to sell him a defensive loophole!
Azar has been tricked!

Manchester United fighter Valencia made a desperate tackle and intercepted the ball.

At this time, Chelsea's midfielder is pressing higher and the defense is empty!
Valencia didn't hesitate, got up and sprinted with the ball!
Just like Mourinho said during halftime, the offense must be bold and straightforward!
Valencia sprinted with the ball, and Xia Xing in the middle also accelerated to keep up!
Mkhitaryan in front was pulling and running, and he cooperated with Valencia on several passes!
Chelsea's defense was disrupted!
Another pass to Mkhitaryan on the edge of the penalty area, Valencia runs inside!
After Mkhitaryan received the ball, he kept passing the ball back and handed the ball to Valencia again!

At this time, Mkhitaryan quickly rushed to the penalty area and reached out to ask!

And Valencia can pass the ball!

Sure enough, he hit the ball quickly!
But it was not passed to Mkhitaryan, but was passed to the middle!

Find Xia Xing!
Xia Xing, who quickly moved forward, had already reached the top of the penalty area!

All Chelsea's defensive attention was on Mkhitaryan who was advancing forward, and no one noticed Xia Xing's accelerating movement!
No, someone noticed, Kanter noticed.

But even though Kanter sprinted with all his strength, he still couldn't catch up with Xia Xing!
Xia Xing saw the ball coming and he didn't hesitate!

Turn your body slightly to the side and shoot furiously!

The ball hit the near corner of the goal!

Chelsea goalkeeper Courtois was guarding Mkhitaryan at this time to prevent him from shooting after receiving the ball.

But I didn't expect Xia Xing to shoot to the other side!
The shot is very accurate, absolutely blind spot!
