Chapter 515: Brother, you really want me to be the goalkeeper.

Chapter 515: Brother, you really let me be the goalkeeper...

In what Mourinho considered to be the toughest Champions League group match, Manchester United ultimately won 2-0 away from home.

This three-pointer is really not easy.

Not only was the player physically exhausted, but Lindelof was also injured.

This made Mourinho quite irritated.

He advocated the introduction of two central defenders, Bailly and Lindelof.

There is no talent to speak of, but his physical condition is also very bad.

Of course, this also has something to do with Manchester United's intensive stadium pressure.

After all, their previous teams didn't have such great pressure.

But this is the big clubs, this is the pressure of the top teams.

This is also the path you must take to become a top player.

Two talented stars in the double pride era, their talents are not necessarily better than others at the same time.

Whether it's Ronaldinho, Kaká, Adriano, Hazard, Bale...

The talents of these players are also of the same level.

However, no one can match the Shuangjiao's continuous combat effectiveness in the intensive schedule.

Strong bodies and very few injuries have created a career that continues to peak.

The same is true for the current Xia Xing.

From his debut to now, there have been almost no major injuries in five seasons and he has always maintained top condition.

Whether at Leicester City or Manchester United.

He is Manchester United's well-deserved "Iron Man".

Four days later in the Premier League match, the Manchester United iron man started again.

On September 9, Manchester United faced the challenge of Everton at home. It was really the fifth round of the Premier League.

The two sides were very harmonious before the game. Both the club and the fans had a good relationship.

It even made the game look a bit like a friendly match.

The two teams do have a good relationship.

Whether it is transfer transactions or private business operations, both parties have many contacts.

Even a few seasons ago, insiders revealed that Manchester United gave Everton points in important games.

But since there is no evidence, it is just a rumor.

Everton has been in good form in recent seasons. Last season, they were ranked seventh in the league due to the head-to-head competition from the Big 6, and almost grabbed a ticket to the European Championship.

Since the start of this season, they have been steadily ranked seventh.

As long as someone in the big6 falls behind, Everton will quickly fill in and strive to replace them.

It's not easy to play in a team like this.

There are many Everton veterans in the Manchester United squad for this game.

For example, Rooney was once the star of hope for Everton.

Another example is Lukaku, who also transferred from Everton.

Fellaini also played at Everton.

There are also former Manchester United players in Everton's squad.

Midfielder Schneiderlin transferred to Everton this summer.

Young right back Michael Keane also came from the Manchester United youth academy.

With such a disconnected relationship, the two sides lose a lot of the smell of gunpowder and have more human touch.

However, after the game started, the competition between the two sides was still fierce.

At this critical moment, no one is willing to give up league points.

This game is relatively close to the Champions League, so Mourinho rotated the players who participated in the Champions League with a big score.

Except for Xia Xing, De Gea, and Matic, almost the entire main lineup has been replaced.

Compared to Manchester United, Everton's lineup is more complete.

They are looking forward to winning this game on the road.

But unfortunately, they thought too much.

Even without Lukaku, Mkhitaryan, Pogba and other main players, as long as Xia Xing is present, Manchester United will still be competitive enough!
Not long after the game started, Sigurdsson fired a shot from the penalty area and almost broke the net.

One minute later, Manchester United fired back!

Xia Xing was in almost the same position outside the penalty area with the same explosive shot!
This time it hit the inside of the goal post and bounced into the net!
The ball is in!
1 is better than 0!

Manchester United opened the scoring and scored the first goal!
This shot left Everton goalkeeper Pickford with lingering fears.

If this ball hits me, I will probably be crippled...

The game continued and Manchester United's offense continued.Everton relies on the organization of the midfield and frontcourt to seek opportunities.

Schneiderlin performed well in this game. He played very steadily in the midfield, and his two defensive jams affected Manchester United's final pass.

However, he was still alone.

In the 22nd minute of the game, Manchester United had another good opportunity.

Carrick in the middle made a long pass to the forward point!

Rooney stops the ball firmly!

This pair of old partners have a perfect chemistry!
Take a kick outside the penalty area and shoot!
The ball drew an arc and went straight into the net!

2 is better than 0!

The ball is in!
Although Rooney is no longer as powerful as he was before, his exquisite selection of shots is still top-notch in the Premier League. !
With two goals in hand, Manchester United became more relaxed.

Next, Ibrahimovic also had a good lob, but this time Pickford made no mistakes and held the ball firmly.

Manchester United led 2-0 in the first half.

In the second half, Manchester United still controlled the tempo of the game.

In the 68th minute of the game, Ibrahimovic received a cross from Xia Xing in the penalty area, fell to the ground and shot, and the ball rolled into the dead center of the goal!
3 is better than 0!

Manchester United completely sealed the victory!

Just when Manchester United was in high spirits, Ibrahimovic fell to the ground.

The shot just made him strain his thigh.

Mourinho hurriedly made substitution adjustments and asked Lukaku to come on and replace Ibrahimovic.

He also replaced Rooney and Carrick, replacing Martial and McTominay.

The victory is decided and more players can rest.

On the sidelines, Mourinho asked Ibrahimovic.

"How are you, buddy?"

"The situation doesn't feel good, I guess I may have to lie down for a while..."

"Ugh……"

Mourinho sighed.

In this period of intensive schedule, any player's injury or retirement is a huge loss to the team.

Fortunately, the team has abundant signings in the summer and has sufficient rotation players in various positions.

Can still support.

But misfortune never comes singly. In the 79th minute of the game, Manchester United suffered another injury.

During a confrontation, De Gea was cut on his forehead by the opponent's sneaker and blood flowed.

This made Mourinho very angry!

Spanish forward Ramirez also realized that he was in trouble and hurriedly stepped forward to take a look.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to..."

Luke Xiao pushed him away!
"Team doctor! Team doctor!"

The team doctor came on stage and took De Gea off the field for treatment.

"It's not a big problem, just trauma."

After hearing this, Mourinho breathed a sigh of relief.

But he also won't let De Gea play again.

If De Gea were to play again, his league and Champions League would be completely out of reach.

He looked at the court and called Lukaku over.

"Put on De Gea's jersey and go goalkeeper!"

"Shall I guard the door?"

"Stop inking, hurry up!"

"Row……"

Coming on as a substitute, I originally thought I could show off my current majesty in front of my old club and try to score a goal.

Unexpectedly, he became a goalkeeper.

Recall the heroic words at the end of the last game.

"If the team needs it, I can be the goalkeeper!"

Sure enough, it came true.

Brother, you really let me be the goalkeeper...
