Star card system.

After being knocked to the ground by Maguire, Jagielka didn't get up for a long time.

The opponent was celebrating excitedly, and Jagielka was helped up by his teammates.

"Captain, are you okay?"

Jagielka shook his head.

He felt like he was about to have a cramp...

I couldn't bear it any longer and was completely cramped.

His teammates quickly pressed his legs. Jagielka struggled for a while but finally stopped resisting.

He originally wanted to crawl off the court and ask the team doctor to press his leg to save game time for his teammates.

But he still didn't move.

On the one hand, he was really in pain, his calves were in terrible pain.

On the other hand, he also knew the game was over.

It is now the 80th minute of the game and the team is trailing Manchester United 0-3.

Given the current contrast in strength and status, it is absolutely impossible to counterattack.

Although the captain cannot say this, Jagielka knows this reality very well in his heart.

He lost.

The first goal was passed by Xia Xing.

The second goal was assisted by Wan-Bissaka and scored by Greenwood.

The third goal was a pass from Xia Xing and a header from Maguire.

The participants in the three goals were all English players.

This made Jagielka extremely regretful about the team's defeat, but also felt a little relieved.

The England national team has a successor.

Greenwood on the striker is extremely talented.

Maguire in the backcourt is solid defensively.

Wan-Bissaka on the wing is good both offensively and defensively.

These are really outstanding young juniors.

The only regret is that Xia Xing did not join the England national team.

If he can follow in his footsteps and join the England national team, the World Cup will really be coming home.

In the end, the score of this game was fixed at 3-0.

When the buzzer sounded at the end of the game, Jagielka reluctantly limped towards Xia Xing and asked him to exchange jerseys.

Facing his opponent's old captain, Xia Xing also showed him the greatest respect.

"Xia, you really deserve to be a superstar at the level of a football king. You are so powerful."

"Thank you for the compliment. I just met a group of good teammates. I'm lucky."

"It would be great if the relationship you have with them as teammates can continue with the national team."

Hearing this, Xia Xing smiled and did not answer.

He knows what Jagielka wants to say, but he currently doesn't have much interest in the national team.

You know, there are so many people inviting Xia Xing to join the national team.

Especially the England national team, which has a first-come-first-come-first-served basis. Countless big names came forward to lobby.

Not to mention the summer trip, Mendes's phone has already been flooded with calls.

Even Aliona and Li De are often asked to help lobby Xia Xing.

But no one succeeds.

Xia Xing has no intention of joining any national team.

Now, he just wants to enjoy the victory at the club.

As for the national team competition, we will talk about it later.

After winning against Sheffield United, Manchester United finally regained some form.

In the next game, Manchester United plays Brighton away.

This team, ranked eighth in the league, is also looking forward to a Europa League spot.

So in this game, they also played well at home.

In particular, their No. 10 player McAllister is extremely active.

This 21-year-old young attacker was recruited from Argentina by Brighton. After being introduced in the winter of 2019, he was loaned back to the Argentinian Serie A and continued to train with his parent team Argentine Youth for half a year.

Last summer, he was still loaned to Argentina by Brighton and played another half season with Boca Juniors.

In this half season, his strength has improved qualitatively.

He was just a talented prospect before, but now he has emerged as a star.

Although he only scored one goal and one assist in nine appearances, his organizational skills and defensive strength on the field have been unanimously recognized by countless football experts.

Can play almost all positions on the field, best in the middle.

From midfielder to midfielder, from defense to offense, he can do it all.

On defense, he has good strength and steals.

In offense, he has excellent passing, dribbling and long-range shooting abilities.

Such comprehensiveness allows him to create more possibilities for his future.

In January 2020, he officially left Argentina and came to England.

Soon, he became an important rotation player for the team.

Head coach Porter's affection for him is obvious to the naked eye.

If it weren't for the lack of experience and the need for upgrading, I'm afraid Porter would have directly established him as the core of the team.

Even so, he still got enough freedom on the court.

In the midfield position, his playing style is even somewhat similar to Xia Xing's.

He was very active in this game.

Not long after the game started, he took a long shot from the frontcourt and almost hit the net.

Five minutes later, he made a long pass to forward Trossard from the midfielder position, creating a single opportunity.

The 26-year-old Belgian forward Trossard is Brighton's important attacker this season. He was transferred for 1560 million euros last summer and has become the team's top scorer.

So far, he has scored 8 goals and 4 assists in all competitions.

In Brighton's formation, this is quite efficient.

This time he received a pass from McAllister, dunked calmly in the penalty area, and even passed the slightly bulky Maguire.

Before the opponent could cover up the defense, Trossard took a shot from the far corner!

The ball went straight to the blind corner!

Manchester United goalkeeper De Gea quickly fell to the ground and the ball was blocked!

Manchester United escaped disaster!

Although no goals were conceded, Manchester United was under great pressure during the opening period.

Solskjaer on the sidelines hurriedly made adjustments.

He signaled Xia Xing to be more steady and not to let his opponent succeed in the opening game.

Xia Xing also had this intention.

In this game it was obvious that the opponent got into the game faster.

The team coached by Porter had two shortcomings.

Xia Xing waved his hand to signal his teammates to retreat appropriately and temporarily consolidate the defense.

Avoid its sharp edges and seek opportunities to defeat the enemy with one strike.

In this way, the opponent becomes more energetic.

McAllister and Trossard connected again and again to create good opportunities.

De Gea is obviously much busier today, taking high passes and low blocks, trying to keep the goal.

This made Solskjaer frown on the sidelines.

Is this game going to be in trouble again?

You must know that several competitors have won. If this game cannot be won, the fourth position in the league that was just obtained will be handed over to others again.

Perrin on the side was also very anxious. Even so, he was still full of praise for the opponent's two important players.

"McAllister is really good. He is good at both offense and defense. He will become a great player in time. And Trossard is the same. He has dribbling, speed and shooting. He is obviously one or two higher than his teammates in Brighton. A level.”

Carrick nodded: "Yeah, how strong our defense is against these two young people in this game will ultimately determine the trend of the game."

Solskjaer said nothing. He looked at Xia Xing on the court.

His eyes were filled with anticipation.

Come on, xia! (End of chapter)
