Star card system.

At this stage of the game, the physical fitness of many Manchester United players has also declined seriously.

Even if they overtook the score, they were still under great defensive pressure.

In this case, Xia Xing was decisively retreated and arranged to organize defense.

This is what Mourinho does best.

As long as he leads by one goal, Mourinho dares to move the bus.

What's more, the opponent's physical condition is very poor now and there is no threat at all.

But the development of the game was beyond expectations.

At the last moment, there were many attacks from both sides, but most of them were destroyed in the midfield.

There is no particularly effective offense.

Leicester City fought back desperately, but it still had no effect.

Xia Xing's large-scale sweeping of the backcourt was the style of play Leicester City was most familiar with.

Now it has become their most troublesome enemy.

There were 3 minutes of injury time, and now it was the first minute.

Xia Xing stole the ball again in the middle, allowing Mahrez to return without success.

Long pass to the penalty area, looking for Lukaku!

Lukaku sprints quickly, which is a good opportunity!
But he couldn't get the ball!

Maguire leaped high and headed the ball to clear the ball!

This is a wonderful defense!

The ball fell to Albrighton!

Albrighton hits!
Mahrez catches the ball quickly!
Xia Xing, who had just made a wonderful pass, quickly rushed towards Mahrez!
But Mahrez suddenly broke out!

This time he didn't hesitate, turned around and sprinted with the ball!

He, who was exhausted just now, seemed to be resurrected now!
The speed increased, and even Xia Xing couldn't keep up for a while!

Matic in front of him stepped forward to defend!

Mahrez deftly changed direction and quickly passed him!
Before the No. 2 defensive player could rush forward, Mahrez had already adjusted his pace and started shooting!

This is about 38 meters away from the goal, and Mahrez's shot is powerful!
And it is accompanied by an extremely strong arc!
Straight into the net!

Even De Gea's leaping save was of no avail!
"The ball went in!

“It’s so exciting!
"Mahrez scored a stunning goal!
“This goal can definitely compete for the best in the Premier League this season!

"Under the defense of many Manchester United players,
"With Leicester City one goal behind,
"With one minute left in the game,

"In the situation where I have exhausted my physical strength,

"Mahrez has unleashed his potential!

“This shot is groundbreaking!

"3 to 3!

"Leicester City equalized the score at the last minute!

"Mahrez is the savior of Leicester City!

"He's so awesome!"

This shot sent the Leicester City fans in the stadium crazy!

This season they have been struggling, until the arrival of the new coach, they were in a slightly better state.

Even so, they also understand how far they are from Manchester United.

But even so, they still worked hard until the last moment!
This is the spirit of Leicester City's miracle!

Mahrez, who scored the ultimate goal, jumped up excitedly!

But when I landed, my calf cramped.

Holding his calf in pain, a helping hand came from beside him.

It's Xia Xing.

His ears were filled with the cheers of Leicester City fans, but Xia Xing's face remained expressionless.

His old club scored a goal, and his current team was absolutely tied.

It's hard to describe this feeling.

Mahrez just lay quietly on the ground and let Xia Xing help him press his legs.

At this time, the referee did not complete the last half minute and blew the whistle to end the game early. 3 to 3.

This is the final result of this game.

On the pitch, Leicester City players hugged and celebrated excitedly.

It's not easy to get a point at Old Trafford.

And it’s still such a wonderful match, and it’s even more difficult.

Ndidi wanted to step forward and press Mahrez's legs to replace Xia Xing.

But was stopped by captain Morgan.

"The game is over anyway, let the two brothers talk."

In the center of the pitch, Xia Xing still gave out the ball and pressed the leg of Mahrez.

"How's it going?"

"Better, thank you."

"I haven't pressed your legs for a long time, I'm not used to it anymore, haha."

"Yeah, the days when we played together seem like a lifetime ago."

"I heard you want to leave Leicester City next season?"

"The news is really flying... Yes, I originally wanted to leave this season, but the club stopped me and refused to agree. I have to leave next year."

"If you leave too, Leicester City's strength will be even greater..."

"It's okay, there's Vardy here too, he plans to stay here for the rest of his life."

"Yes, his feelings for Leicester City are much deeper than ours. After all, it was Leicester City that gave him everything."

"Let me tell you in advance, I will most likely go to Manchester City next season."

"Oh my God, what a damn decision. I really don't want to be your opponent."

"But this is quite interesting. When I play against you again, I won't be as embarrassed as today. I will have stronger teammates."

"Then I'm looking forward to the fight then."

"I'm looking forward to it too!"

Mahrez stood up from the ground, took off his jersey and handed it over, then took Xia Xing's jersey.

The two men hugged and turned to leave.

Behind him, Mahrez heard Xia Xing say: "Man, I forgot to tell you."

"Huh? Say what?"

"The shot you just shot was so cool! Man, you're awesome!!"

"Haha, of course!"

Despite the draw with Leicester City, Mourinho did not criticize the players.

“You have performed very well under such an intensive schedule, and I am proud of you!
"Although we only got one point in this game, you showed the blood of the Red Devils.
"The goal conceded in the end was just luck. If Mahrez was given ten or twenty shots from this position, he wouldn't be able to score.

“So, lads, hold your heads up high and don’t forget we are still the league leaders!
"Go back and have a good sleep and rest. We still have a lot of battles ahead!"

Mourinho is right.

This is not just a consolation, but a sincere expression of the players.

Even if the team's league winning streak is ended, what's the problem?

No team can win all the time.

Any team needs to relax properly and relieve pressure at the right time.

A draw in a packed Christmas schedule, no problem.

In the 21st round of the Premier League three days later, Manchester United also failed to win.

The game, which was originally scheduled for December 12st, was moved to December 31th.

Manchester United rotated their lineup and attacked Southampton, but were eventually forced to draw 0-0 by their opponents.

Likewise, Mourinho did not criticize any players.

He even gave everyone New Year's gifts and asked everyone to go home and have a good rest.

"December 12st and January 31st, two consecutive days off. I wish you a Happy New Year in advance!"

The players were extremely grateful, put aside the burden of Lianping, and went home to celebrate the New Year.

But for Mourinho, this new year's work tasks are more arduous than any previous year... (End of this chapter)
