Chapter 459: Fighting! Bloody fight!

Roma can definitely beat Manchester United.

This is Carragher's view.

No, it should be said to be the perspective of a former Liverpool player.

Hearing this, Alan Shearer next to him said with a smile.

“Okay, we respect everyone’s opinion, just be happy with it.

"But I still maintain my opinion that Manchester United has a better chance of winning this game.

"Today Manchester United is still in a 4-2-3-1 formation.

"Goalkeeper De Gea,

"The back four of Ashley Young, Smalling, Darmian and Valencia,

"Double defensive midfielder Pogba and Fellaini,

"The three front midfielders Xia Xing, Rooney and Mkhitaryan,

"Center Ibrahimovic.

“On the bench were Rashford, Martial, Lingard, Mata, Herrera and other players.

“Manchester United also played with all their main players in this game, and their recent form has also been explosive.

"Especially Xia, he has a lot of experience playing against Roma.

"There are also players such as Pogba, Ibrahimovic, Darmian, etc. They have all played in Serie A.

"I am very familiar with this opponent.

"So Manchester United will definitely be able to win this game at home, just by winning a few goals."

The two commentators each support one side, and players from both sides have already entered the court.

The game hasn't even started yet, but just seeing the players appear on the court, the fans are already cheering excitedly.

This is the influence and appeal of wealthy families.

Compared with the duel between Lyon and Ajax in another group of opponents, this game is obviously more attractive.

The battle between the top of the Premier League and the top of Serie A was supposed to be a Champions League-level showdown, but now it appears in the Europa League, which naturally makes fans excited.

The referee's whistle sounds and the game begins!

With the help of the home court, Manchester United took the lead in launching a fierce attack at the kick-off!

The ball rolled under the feet of Rooney and Ibrahimovic and flew quickly behind them!

Pogba controlled the ball, he hit the left side and handed it to Xia Xing!

Xia Xing passed the ball diagonally again and handed it to Pogba who moved forward!

The two completed a one-two match!

But Pogba, who had just caught the ball, was knocked down before he could make a move!

It’s Roma midfielder Nainggolan!

As the top B2B midfielder in today's international football, Nainggolan's abilities can be said to be quite comprehensive.

This defense deflated the tall Pogba.

The referee's whistle sounded and Nainggolan committed a foul.

But this is not a card-stealing move, it's not serious, just give it a warning.

"Paul, are you okay?" Xia Xing reached out and pulled Pogba up.

"I'm fine," Pogba stood up. "This guy is really fierce. No wonder his Juventus teammates are full of praise for him."

Xia Xing was curious: "How do your Juventus teammates praise him?"

Pogba's expression was serious: "Regardless of his character and personality, this guy is simply a copy of Nedved."

As soon as these words came out, Xia Xing nodded secretly in his heart.

Yes, Nainggolan is really good.

Like Nedved, he has excellent physical fitness, good offense and defense, top mental strength, and a long-range shooting ability. He is really a rare all-round midfield genius in world football.

It's not easy to deal with him in this game.

Manchester United got a set kick in the midfield. Xia Xing took the penalty into the penalty area. Ibrahimovic's forced header went high due to interference from the opponent. It was a pity.

The game continued and it was Roma's turn to attack.

The 3-4-3 formation has strong control in the midfield and frontcourt.

De Rossi sat in the defensive midfielder and passed several passes in succession, looking for opportunities.

Suddenly a long diagonal pass was made, looking for Stroman on the right!

But before Stroman could catch the ball, Xia Xing took the first kick and shoveled the ball away!

Manchester United successfully rescued!

On the left wing, no one can take advantage of Xia Xing's defense!

Rudiger took the penalty kick, and just after throwing the ball, he lost the ball again!

This time he handed it over to Nainggolan. Unexpectedly, as soon as Nainggolan stopped the ball with his chest, Xia Xing hit him hard and squeezed him out of bounds!

The ball was also lost!

However, the ball also went out of bounds again, and it was still a set kick from Roma.

But even so, Nainggolan was furious.

"Who the hell hit me!"

Nainggolan, who had a hot temper, turned back to look for his fault. Xia Xing was not afraid and stood in front of him with his chest held high and his head held high.

"A reasonable collision, don't you accept it?"

"What the hell..."

Just as Nainggolan was about to get angry, captain De Rossi hurriedly pulled him aside.

"Captain, he was too arrogant just now!"

"We have to be reasonable. It was indeed a reasonable collision, no problem. And the referee didn't say anything."

"Captain, I'm so shameless!"

"Man, losing the ball in front of Xia is not a loss of face."

Although De Rossi comforted Nainggolan, Nainggolan was still in a bad mood.

As a midfielder who relies on his body to make a living, it is really difficult to accept being knocked down by a guy from the opponent who does not look as strong as himself.

De Rossi patted Nainggolan on the shoulder to calm him down.

"We played against Leicester City before, and Totti and I both played against him. Do you know what Totti said about this young man after that game?"

"Praise him for being awesome. After all, he performed well at that time."

"Totti said to me, xia is simply me and you combined."

"..."

Nainggolan was silent.

A combination of Totti and De Rossi.

This rating is simply too high.

Others may not know, but Nainggolan definitely knows.

Totti is one of the best offensive players of the last era, a top star.

His shooting is world-class, and he is very good at burst shots, lobs, long shots, and powerful shots.

He is a little older, and he retreats to play as an organizing midfielder. His passing and control are also world-class.

De Rossi is one of the best midfielders of this era, a top midfielder.

Many people praise themselves as the best B2B in Serie A. Although Nainggolan is proud and complacent, he also thinks he is second.

Because he thinks De Rossi is better than him.

His defense is impeccable, his physical confrontation is excellent, his mental strength is top-notch, and his physical fitness is world-class. He is a natural captain.

These two are world-class stars individually. If they are combined into one, what kind of strength will they be?

I can't believe it.

And Totti actually said that xia is the combination of the two of them. This evaluation is too high.

But to be fair, Nainggolan also admires Xia Xing in his heart.

When they fought two years ago, Xia Xing only relied on skills and speed to win.

But now, he can actually gain the upper hand in physical collisions.

Young people are making rapid progress.

However, the stubborn Nainggolan will never admit defeat!

Don’t you like physical collisions?

Then come!

Next, Xia Xing dribbled the ball through the midfield, and Nainggolan rushed up directly!

He also kept the ball and ran directly towards the man!
