Star card system.

Looking at the excited cheers of the Arsenal soldiers, Mourinho frowned on the sidelines.

They didn't play well in this game.

The first half was good, the second half was terrible.

Although Sanchez is very strong, I admit that.

But you shouldn't concede the ball so easily.

Moreover, he was constantly being pressured by the other party and didn't even have a chance to fight back.

Mourinho's team counterattacked defensively and defended solidly, but they definitely did not give up offense.

But he also knows that Sanchez is really powerful.

After he came on in the second half, he added a lot to Arsenal's tactical play.

Arsenal has always been pursuing the ultimate in passing and control, with smooth flow.

But after Sanchez came on, Arsenal's offense tried many risky methods.

The ball was passed to Sanchez's feet. Sanchez had the possibility of passing the ball, but it was more about breakthroughs and shots.

This is completely different from Arsenal's previous tactics.

But precisely because of this, it also caused a lot of trouble for Manchester United's defense.

In particular, his breakthrough and shooting are top-notch, and he is too threatening.

Although De Gea conceded two goals in the second half, he actually performed very well in this game and saved Sanchez's shots many times.

This can also be seen how great a threat Manchester United's defense suffered in the second half.

The time has reached 80 minutes, and both sides have used up their substitution quotas.

In the last 10 minutes, Arsenal went all out to score the equalizer.

At this time, Xhaka's long-range shot was high, and Manchester United got some breathing time.

Xia Xing called Rashford over, who was not far away.

"Captain, what instruction?"

"The extent of your retracement is too great, which affects the effectiveness of our counterattack."

"But it's hard to defend now..."

"No matter how difficult the defense is, it is still the responsibility of the midfielder and backcourt. You must boldly step up and cooperate with Lukaku, otherwise he will be unable to stand alone in front."

"Understood!"

"Be ready and wait for me to pass the ball to you."

"it is good!"

In the next period of time, Rashford moved slightly forward.

While Xia Xing was organizing the defense, he had been observing Arsenal's changes.

During this time, the Gunners' formation has moved closer and closer.

Manchester United only needs a good counterattack opportunity to completely seal the victory.

You need to wait patiently for this opportunity...

In the 87th minute of the game, Arsenal passed the ball 14 times in a row, and the ball came to Sanchez's feet again!
Sanchez cuts inside and gets rid of the defense!

But this time, he ran into trouble!

Still looking for Xia Xing!
Xia Xing catches the ball accurately!

But now the defensive player comes up!
Xhaka and Bellerin rushed forward quickly!
Sanchez also stood firm and pressed quickly!

Xia Xing faces a great test!

Because in such a small area, the defense is very intensive, the space and route of the ball are limited, and there is not much time to adjust!

But Xia Xing doesn't care!
Before the defense closed in, he decisively made a long pass straight to the frontcourt!
As early as when he intercepted the ball and moved, he had already observed the movement of his teammates!
Now it's just a matter of getting the ball where it needs to go!
A pass went straight to the left!

Rashford runs quickly and receives the ball accurately!
Move forward gently, the speed reaches full speed!

Arsenal's defense stalwart Koscielny steps up!I will never let you get past me!

Rashford passed Koscielny and dribbled the ball into the goal!

Facing Cech, he decisively kicked off and shot low!
The ball went straight into the far corner of the goal!

The ball is in!
4 is better than 2!

At the last moment of the game, Manchester United scored a very crucial goal to seal the victory!

This game is stable!

The visiting fans in the stands were excited!

Applause and cheers came one after another!

At this time, Wenger on the sidelines sighed softly.

Ugh.

This game is gone again.

This season, top four is really difficult.

The wind of the twelfth lunar month gently blew the professor's forehead.

The white hair is like winter snow, falling silently.

Manchester United once again led by two goals, and the Arsenal players were almost desperate.

Although they were still running hard after the restart, they knew there was nothing they could do.

Sanchez wants to use his own strength to sprint with the ball.

But Xia Xing has adjusted his position to specifically defend him man-to-man.

In the next few minutes, Xia Xing intercepted Sanchez's ball three times and interrupted Arsenal's defense one after another.

Sanchez fell to the ground and punched the ground hard.

But he still failed to break through Xia Xing's defense.

The referee blows the whistle, the game is over!
“This exciting game has finally come to an end!

"4 to 2!

"Manchester United beat Arsenal!
“Although I won, the process was not easy.

“When we led by three goals in the first half, we all thought the victory was certain.

"But Sanchez came on as a substitute in the second half and gave Arsenal a glimmer of hope.
"With two consecutive goals, the Chilean genius helped the Gunners turn the tide.
“They were one step away from a draw!
"But unfortunately, when xia takes action, that's when the game ends.

"Accurate defensive steals and accurate long-pass dispatching, Xia Xing brought the game to a complete end.
“The final collaboration between Rashford and Lukaku was also very exquisite, and in the end they expanded their lead again.

"Arsenal saw hope for a time, but fell into despair again before the sun rose.

"They lost this game and not only lost three points, but also lost their top six position.
"This is absolutely unacceptable to Arsenal management.

"If it were another coach, maybe he could pack his bags and prepare to leave now.

“But Arsenal’s manager is Arsene Wenger, the godfather of the Gunners.

"But even so, his handsome position is still in turmoil.
"Let's see what happens next..."

On the sidelines, Mourinho was shaking hands with Wenger.

When they were coaching at Chelsea, the two had a very unpleasant relationship.

They even pushed each other on the field and the relationship was very bad.

But after Mourinho took over at Manchester United, the relationship between the two became much closer.

Maybe we can find some answers in Wenger's words.

"Jose, every time I look at the Manchester United coaching bench, I feel like the old man is still there."

"Yes, the most interesting time in the Premier League is when you two play against each other."

"You are also great. In terms of honor, you are very close to him. Two Champions League trophies are really enviable to me."

Wenger's words were so candid that Mourinho didn't know what to say for a moment.

Finally, he really took a step forward and hugged Wenger again.

"Professor, I wish you all the best in the future." (End of Chapter)
