"Cristiano Ronaldo scored in two consecutive Champions League group matches! His performance was great."

In the live broadcast room, Alan Shearer kept praising him.

"When Cristiano Ronaldo moved to Manchester United,
"Countless people say he is old.

"Yes, a 36-year-old is indeed a veteran.

"But he is Ronaldo!
“Scoring consecutive goals in the Premier League and ranking first in the scorer list!

“He scored again in the Champions League group stage, especially today, helping Manchester United grab three points!
“He’s just amazing!

"But having said that, Manchester United's victory in this game,
“It is also the result of the hard work of the whole team.

“They deserve to be back on top!”

However, Manchester United's top position only lasted for one day.

In another game the next day, Atlanta defeated Young Boys of Bern 1-0.

They drew with Villarreal in their last game and won again in this game. They returned to the top of the table with 4 points.

The next game against Manchester United is crucial.

On October 10st, Manchester United faced the challenge of Atlanta at home.

At the pre-game press conference, when a reporter asked Xia Xing what he thought of Atlanta, Xia Xing was blunt.

"For me, Atalanta is a more difficult enemy to deal with. Although Villarreal is also very strong, after all, we have played against each other before and are more familiar with it. Atalanta is also a very team-oriented team. And don't forget, they finished third in Serie A last season and also reached the top 16 of the Champions League last year. Even if they faced Real Madrid in the knockout round, we thought. It’s not easy to win against them.”

Xia Xing's words were very serious.

He really takes Atlanta to heart.

This attitude has also rubbed off on his teammates.

Manchester United is currently in good form in the league and has maintained a winning streak, so they are somewhat proud of it.

They need stars like Xia Xing to cool things down.

Manchester United played with all its main players today, with Xia Xing and Cristiano Ronaldo leading the midfield and frontcourt, full of stars.

It is much weaker than Manchester United and Atlanta.

But this "weak" refers to fame, not strength.

There are basically no famous stars in this Atlanta team.

The 31-year-old forward star Muriel scored 22 Serie A goals last season, ranking third in the Serie A scorer list. He has good passing and shooting, excellent dribbling, and is in good shape this season.

The 31-year-old striker Zapata scored 15 goals last season and is the team's second goalscorer. He is a tall forward.

The 29-year-old Malinovsky is a versatile midfielder and was the Serie A assists leader last season.

There is also the young Kupmenas, who is also a midfielder who is good at passing and shooting.

The 18-year-old defender Scalvini has shown amazing defensive talent and is a key training target in the team.

Such a team is really difficult to deal with.

Facing Manchester United's onslaught at home, they played steadily from the beginning and stabilized their position.

In these Champions League games, Manchester United has had a difficult start.

After all, it is a cup competition, and every team attaches great importance to defense.

Only Manchester United obviously attacked more fiercely.

From the first minute of the game, Manchester United took the initiative.

Xia Xing has good positional conditions and frequently cooperates with the striker trident.

The linkage between the four people is very good.

But after half an hour, Manchester United failed to score.

Solskjaer frowned on the sidelines.

Felan shook his head: "Double matches in a week are too stressful."

Carrick also said worriedly: "If we can't score again, we may be in trouble."

Sure enough, he was right.

In the 31st minute of the game, Atlanta made a counterattack in the backcourt and played a wonderful cooperation.

There was a continuous pass between the three players in the midfield, and the ball came near the Manchester United penalty area.

Zappacosta's low ball passed diagonally, and the ball flew diagonally toward the penalty area!

Wan-Bissaka takes a shovel! But it’s still a step too late!
The ball rolled into the penalty area, Pasalic retreated to catch the ball, turned around, and volleyed!
This shot was very sudden!

Let Maguire and Varane be powerless!
De Gea saw Pasalic take a shot, but could not accurately judge the direction.

After just a moment's hesitation, the ball came flying at high speed!
De Gea took action, it was too late!

The ball hit the net!

1 is better than 0!

Atlanta scored first!
Watching their opponents' excited celebrations, the Manchester United soldiers were in a daze.

Is this a goal?
You know, they attacked for half an hour...

But that's not the worst.

After the restart, Manchester United still maintained their aggressive momentum.

Atlanta leads the score and they are not in a hurry.

Play slowly and wait for opportunities in the backcourt.

Finally, the opportunity came again.

A corner kick opportunity, the young new midfielder Kupmenas made a curved pass!

Defender Demiral in the middle of the penalty area jumped high!
His assists are very effective!

Headed the ball towards the goal and the ball hit the net!
2 is better than 0!

Atlanta scores another goal!
After scoring two goals, Atalanta returned to the locker room with excitement and joy.

On Manchester United's side, the team's momentum is a little frustrated.

But when everyone saw captain Xia Xing and star Cristiano Ronaldo, everyone gained confidence again.

Because their faces were full of expectations and confidence in winning!
"Isn't it just two goals? In the second half, we scored three!"

Xia Xing does what he says.

Not long after the second half started, Xia Xing suddenly accelerated with the ball.

About 37 meters away from the goal, he suddenly shot!
The ball hit the net!

This long-range shot is shocking!

1 is better than 2!

Manchester United gets a goal back!
Ten minutes later, Xia Xing once again took advantage of the free kick opportunity and passed the ball to Maguire!

The tall Maguire squeezed away the defender in the penalty area, jumped up hard, headed the ball towards the goal, and the ball hit the net!
The Manchester United central defender equalized the score in the same way as Atlanta's second goal!

They are incredibly tenacious!

2 is better than 2!

Both sides are back on the same starting line!
The momentum is back!
Next, Manchester United continued to launch a fierce attack.

Especially Xia Xing, who pressed forward unconservatively.

"Guys, the defense is up to you!"

Matic and Fred nodded.

Leave it to us!
Xia Xing fully participated in the offense, which put great pressure on Atlanta.

And for the three Manchester United strikers, this is an even better opportunity.

Rashford's shot hit the bottom of the post and almost went ahead.

Sancho also tried a long-range curling shot, which slid out.

It wasn't until the 81st minute of the game that Manchester United's goal finally came.

Outside the penalty area, Xia Xing once again used his long-range shooting skills!
Although there were many people in the penalty area this time, Xia Xing still took the kick himself!
The ball was saved by Atlanta goalkeeper Musso falling to the ground!

But Manchester United's attack is not over yet!

Cristiano Ronaldo quickly followed up and bounced into the far corner!

The ball hits the net!

3 is better than 2!

Manchester United fights back and makes a comeback! (End of chapter)
