Star card system.

After joining Manchester United this season, Drinkwater gradually regained his form.

Although it is still not as good as the peak feeling I had in Leicester City, it is already very good.

With his versatility, he has gained a rotation position under Solskjaer.

In addition to his personal efforts, there are also few people who can compare with his tacit understanding with Xia Xing.

This is also one of his strengths.

He has played a total of 28 times this season, scoring 7 goals and assisting 6 times.

This result is quite good.

At least 10,000 times better than staying at Chelsea.

At this moment, the tacit understanding between him and Xia Xing once again worked wonders.

Seeing that Xia Xing's attack was blocked, Drinkwater immediately wanted to go up and help.

Xia Xing turned around and looked at him. The two of them didn't speak, but they had already reached a consensus.

After Xia Xing received the ball, he pretended to assist left and right to help the full-back gain opportunities to attack.

Then he pretends to dribble forward to attract the defense.

Continuous midfield control has left Leicester City's central defense empty!

Created space and time for Drinkwater!

Xia Xing estimated the running time of his teammates and guessed that Drinkwater was in place without even looking behind him!

A pass that sticks to the ground accurately penetrates the opponent's midfield defense!

Wonderful!

Drinkwater quickly sprinted to catch the ball. At this time, everything was clear in front of him!

The opponent's 3-4-3 formation has been broken down in the middle!

The three strikers moved quickly to contain the opponent's three defenders!

Drinkwater continues to dribble!

It’s 30 meters away from the goal!

Evans doesn't wait any longer and attacks quickly!

Even at the risk of losing position, you can't let your opponent go any further!

You must know that Xia Xing is also sprinting quickly now. If he joins the attacking group again, the Leicester City goal will be even more dangerous!

Seeing Evans go up for grabs, Drinkwater adjusted his steps and made a decision!

Kick off, long shot!

As early as when he was at Leicester City, he had a wonderful long-range shot!

But after he went to Chelsea, he rarely played.

After all, there are many shooters in the team, and he has no right to fire.

Not to mention that he didn't even have many chances to play in Chelsea's later stages.

And now, he can shoot!

Xia Xing had told him before this game.

"If you have the chance, take a shot yourself! After all, you are very familiar with Leicester City's situation and Schmeichel's saving methods. Your shot success rate must be high. Don't worry about making mistakes, it doesn't matter. and me!"

Now Drinkwater didn't care. Facing the goal guarded by Schmeichel, he kicked off and shot!

This kick made Schmeichel on the opposite side feel extremely familiar and unfamiliar!

Familiar because he often saved Drinkwater's shots at Leicester City's training base.

It was unfamiliar because the power, speed and angle of this shot seemed different from before.

Stronger, faster, more accurate!

When Schmeichel found Drinkwater shooting, he had already lost the best chance to take off.

He didn't expect Drinkwater to shoot.

And it was this hesitation of less than a second that caused him to miss the best time to save!

Jump with all your strength and save with all your strength!

But the shot was too tricky and went straight to the upper right corner of the goal!

Extremely accurate!

Schmeichel felt as if he had pounced, but he seemed not to have pounced!

A gust of wind flashed through my fingertips!

Then, the cheers started!

Ugh……

Schmeichel sighed as he fell to the ground.

He knew the ball was dropped.

At this moment, the ball is already rolling in the net!

Manchester United scored!

Drinkwater's wonderful long shot helped the team equalize the score!

1 is better than 1!

At the end of the first half, the two sides returned to the same starting line!

The excited Xia Xing was the first to rush to his friend and hug him tightly!

"Dude, I knew you could do it!"

"Your passing is still good, and you took away the opponent's defense in the middle. You are a big contributor!" "Stop complimenting each other and keep fighting. We must win the game!"

"no problem!"

Fans of the visiting team cheered and applauded excitedly in the stands, and Manchester United players on the field also embraced and celebrated.

Perrin hugged Carrick hard on the sidelines: "You are indeed Manchester United's officially certified midfield master! Your guess was so accurate!"

Carrick couldn't help but be overjoyed: "I knew Xia must be looking for something! His rhythm just now has obviously changed, what a genius!"

"You are all geniuses, hahahaha!"

At this time, captain Morgan pulled up Schmeichel in the Leicester City penalty area.

"Dude, wake up."

"Oh, I lost the ball, what a pity."

"It's not your fault, that was really a shock to the world."

"I didn't expect Drinkwater's shooting level to improve again. I'm really happy for him."

"Well, if we weren't opponents now, I would definitely be applauding him."

"We will continue to work hard and never give him another chance!"

Vardy, who slowly ran back from the frontcourt, also felt emotional.

The last time he played for Manchester United, Drinkwater was not in such good shape, but now he is impressive.

Old friend, you are really good.

After Manchester United scored, both sides had another chance to score, but neither could be converted into a goal.

In the end, the first half ended with 1-1.

In the second half, the sides changed sides to fight again, and both sides made a substitution adjustment.

For Manchester United, Mata, who performed poorly in the first half, was replaced, and Lingard, who had better running ability, was replaced.

This is a tactical substitution.

Lescott's substitution was a passive substitution.

Right back Justin had some minor injuries before the game. In the first half, the injury worsened and he was replaced by Royce.

Royce pulled Albrighton back and asked him to play the right back position.

Then replaced Matthew James, playing right midfielder.

This substitution made Xia Xing and Drinkwater feel a little emotional.

James is a good friend of the two.

Especially Drinkwater.

When Leicester City was playing in the English Championship, Drinkwater, James and De Laet had the best relationship.

The three of them all came from Manchester United's youth training camp and have known each other before.

After joining Leicester City one after another, they became partners with each other and the relationship was irreversible.

But as Leicester City's strength continues to improve, the situation of the three has also changed a lot.

Drinkwater has always been a main player, especially during Leicester City's quintuple-winning season.

In the end, he was spotted by Chelsea, left the team and joined Chelsea.

De Laet has always been an important rotation in the team, but in the summer of 2019, he chose to return to his hometown of Belgium and joined Antwerp, which can be regarded as a return to his roots early.

Matthew James has remained at Leicester City.

The team's strength has increased dramatically in recent years, and he has been reduced from a rotation to a substitute.

But even so, he still chose to stay and stay with his beloved team.

When they met again before the game, James was filled with emotions when he saw Xia Xing and Drinkwater... (End of this chapter)
