Chapter 458 Resentment! Favorability!

Xia Xing made the final decision!

The cheers in the stands burst out instantly!

"Xia!"

"Summer!"

"Hero!"

Yes, Xia Xing is now the hero of Manchester United!

Chelsea is chasing closely behind, and Manchester United cannot afford to lose any game!

The Europa League will be coming soon, and before that, we must stabilize the situation!

Xia Xing's goal is a goal that stabilizes the morale of the troops!

1 to 0!

Manchester United finally broke the deadlock!

Surrounded by his teammates, Xia Xing also breathed a sigh of relief.

Although the opponent is not strong, it is really troublesome to defend.

Now it's good, finally steady.

With a ball in hand, Manchester United is stable.

Manchester United, who took the lead, played more relaxed.

Eight minutes later, Xia Xing created another good opportunity.

This time it was also his dribbling forward, creating a killing opportunity on the left side of the penalty area!

Attracting defense, suddenly kicking, and quickly knocking!

Passing to Mata who was advancing in the middle!

Mata calmly pushed the ball into the net outside the penalty area!

2 to 0!

Manchester United is sure to win!

In the end, when the referee blew the whistle at halftime, Manchester United successfully got three points!

Their lead is still 6 points!

There are four games left, and they need two more wins!

The league is stable, and Mourinho is completely at ease.

Next, he can go all out to deal with the Europa League.

Manchester United did not encounter too much trouble on the Europa League stage this season.

The opponent's strength is even far inferior to the league opponent.

This time is different.

Roma, the Champions League semi-final opponent, is the hottest team in Serie A this season.

As of now, they are still tied with Juventus, and they have an advantage in goal difference.

Leading the standings!

The current situation is similar to Manchester United.

The top center Dzeko has scored 27 league goals and is the absolute hero of the team.

Winger Salah, who is fast and good at breakthroughs, has also scored 15 league goals and 11 assists.

Midfielder Nainggolan is a world-class B2B player. So far, he has scored double-digit goals and assists, and his defensive data ranks among the top in Serie A.

Goalkeeper Szczesny is a solid defender, keeping many clean sheets this season.

Captain Totti and De Rossi are both strong and in great form.

Such a Roma team deserves to be ranked first in Serie A.

They are likely to create miracles this season and regain the league title.

And on the Europa League stage, they are also the favorites to win the championship.

Coach Spalletti is in the limelight.

Facing such an opponent, Mourinho has to be cautious.

On April 30, Manchester United defeated Swansea, and on May 4, Manchester United waited for the challenge of Roma.

The first game was held at Old Trafford.

When Manchester United players entered the field, Roma players had just entered the field.

The two sides met on the sidelines of the field.

For Roma and Manchester United, there are still many ties between the two sides.

There are good friends, spiritual connections, and resentment.

Well, there may be more hatred.

Of course, Mourinho is at the center of these grievances.

When he coached Inter Milan, Mourinho played against Roma many times.

At that time, Inter Milan was a European superpower with top strength.

Even Barcelona was trampled under his feet, and the Champions League was in hand, full of prestige.

In the league match, the declining Roma naturally rarely took advantage, and was often beaten by Mourinho's team.

Mourinho was in the limelight at the time and full of arrogance.

Therefore, Roma veterans such as Totti and De Rossi were not in a good mood when they saw Mourinho.

There was no personal grudge, but they just didn't like him.

As a former Chelsea player, Salah also complained about Mourinho who did not reuse him at the time.

Now he meets Mourinho again, and he is eager to prove his strength in front of him.

There is also center forward Dzeko, who transferred from Manchester City and dislikes Manchester United in his bones.

So the relationship between the two sides is not good, and the main contradiction is still Mourinho.

But there are also friendly aspects.

For example, Xia Xing.

"Xia!"

"Young man!"

Xia Xing had just come on the field when the captain and vice-captain of the opposing team came over and greeted him.

In the 2014-2015 season, Leicester City had just been promoted to the Premier League and qualified for the Europa League by virtue of last season's FA Cup championship.

They won the trophy after winning all the way.

And Roma was their opponent in the quarter-finals.

In the two rounds of the game, Leicester City played very hard.

In the first round, they led 1-0, but the advantage was not big.

In the second round, the opponent scored directly at the beginning and fell behind 0-1.

At this time, Leicester City got a penalty kick.

Several opportunities to change the situation at this time.

But Xia Xing took the initiative to find the referee and gave up.

Because it was not a penalty kick.

Manchester United did not benefit from it.

But in the end, with Xia Xing's long-range shot, they regained the lead in the total score and successfully advanced.

Even so, Xia Xing still won the applause of the home Roma fans and the friendship of the Roma players.

Especially the captain and vice-captain Totti and De Rossi, both of them admired Xia Xing very much.

Even in the two transfer periods, they suggested that the club buy Xia Xing as the team's future midfield core.

However, Xia Xing was eventually signed by Manchester United, and the expectations of the captain and vice-captain of Roma were dashed.

But even though they became opponents, they still admired and liked Xia Xing very much when they saw him, and even went up to say hello.

Seeing this scene, Carragher in the live broadcast room laughed and said: "It seems that the bad relationship between Manchester United and Roma must be made up by Xia. Otherwise, based on the grievances between Mourinho and many Roma players, Manchester United is likely to encounter opponents with better form in this game."

Alan Shearer shook his head: "Not really, although Roma is strong in this game, I am still more optimistic about Manchester United."

"More optimistic about Manchester United? Are you sure? Even if Manchester United is in good form, are you sure they can beat the top team in Serie A with solid defense? Especially such a bad attacking group?" Carragher curled his lips.

Although Manchester United has achieved good results this season, Carragher still keeps criticizing their offensive line.

The aging Ibrahimovic and Rooney, the inexperienced Rashford, and the ups and downs of Martial.

This is Carragher's evaluation.

Facing Roma's strong defense today, Carragher is even more optimistic about Roma.

"I even think that if Roma plays normally in this game,

"They can even beat Manchester United into a sieve!

"Let's take a look at Roma's lineup today:

"3-4-3 formation,

"The goalkeeper is the Brazilian genius Alisson,

"Three defenders Rudiger, Fazio and Manolas,

"Captain De Rossi,

"Three midfielders Mario Rui, Nainggolan, Strootman,
