Star Card System

When Xia Xing was very young, his father had considered letting Xia Xing learn other sports.

For example, table tennis, badminton and the like.

The most intense one was to let him learn volleyball.

But Xia Xing's mother disagreed.

"I hope my son can be more like a man, not so elegant, but must be wild!"

In the end, Xia Xing chose football.

Many years later, Xia Xing also thought about this problem.

In China, table tennis and badminton are more popular.

In China, which is dominated by Confucian culture, people care more about etiquette and demeanor. Even if they choose sports, they have to do it across the net.

Almost all direct physical confrontation sports, many Chinese athletes are not good at it.

Even in direct physical confrontation sports, Chinese athletes rarely see the kind of bloody fighting.

They still care more about the humanistic spirit.

In Europe and the United States, they prefer the impact of fists and flesh.

Football, basketball, and rugby are the favorites there.

In the eyes of European and American athletes, these sports fields are arenas and battlefields.

The opponent is the enemy, even if it means killing the opponent to win!

Today's game is the best proof.

Manchester United and Roma don't have a bad relationship.

But the fight between the two sides in this game was very fierce.

After Xia Xing and Nainggolan collided with each other several times, the tempers of both sides were brought out.

In the 14th minute of the game, Mkhitaryan rushed through the midfield with the ball.

Just after passing Mario Rui, he was immediately knocked down by Rudiger.

The referee blew the whistle and gave Manchester United a free kick.

Three minutes later, it was also a wing dribbling past the opponent, and Strootman was carried away by Fellaini's shoulder.

The referee blew the whistle again, and it was another foul.

The two sides committed consecutive fouls, and the physical confrontation was full.

However, it is worth mentioning that both sides were against the ball, not the person, and there was no malicious foul.

For Manchester United, Mourinho never wants the team to lose.

As for Roma, Spalletti also asked the players to pay attention. At this moment of double-line championship, no accidents can happen.

So the strong confrontation between the two sides in this game was only at the game level, and there was no malicious foul.

The referee's consecutive penalties made the players on both sides more and more excited.

In the 21st minute of the game, the game finally broke the deadlock.

Rooney dribbled the ball in the frontcourt, facing the double defense of De Rossi and Nainggolan.

Rooney made a light cross-kick, and Xia Xing quickly moved forward to receive the ball!

At this time, Nainggolan followed up!

Xia Xing did not hesitate and accelerated with the ball!

Nainggolan was directly thrown away!

In terms of physical confrontation, the two are not much different.

But in speed, Nainggolan is far inferior to Xia Xing!

Using speed to get rid of Nainggolan, Xia Xing made a slight adjustment and made a decisive cross!

The ball went straight to the front of the penalty area!

At this time, Rooney quickly caught up!

Just now he was still fighting in the midfield, and now he has come to the penalty area agilely!

The two of them made a large two-on-one!

Xia Xing's pass was extremely accurate!

Rooney volleyed the ball!

The ball hit the net!

1-0!

Manchester United scored the first goal!

Although the Red Devils captain's physical function has declined this season and he can no longer play the whole game.

Even so, he still often performs brilliantly in key games.

In the goal just now, Rooney showed a strong overall view.

Attracting defense, knocking Xia Xing horizontally, running quickly, and shooting in front of the goal.

All in one go, he is still a world-class striker.

The Manchester United captain showed his power, and the Roma captain was not far behind.

In the 33rd minute of the game, Roma pushed forward in the middle again.

Nainggolan relied on his excellent running ability to continuously attack in the midfield, putting Manchester United under great pressure.

Fellaini was very competitive, but his skills were too rough.

Pogba was not able to gain an advantage in the physical confrontation with Nainggolan.

Therefore, Xia Xing often assisted in defense.

But this gave the Roma captain a chance.

Nainggolan suddenly accelerated with the ball, and Xia Xing followed!

Nainggolan pulled horizontally to the side, and Xia Xing followed closely!

But unexpectedly, the opponent did not continue to fight with Xia Xing physically, but chose to knock horizontally!

De Rossi in the middle quickly moved forward!

About 38 meters away from the goal, De Rossi kicked decisively!

The ball hit the upper right corner of the net!

De Gea, who reacted quickly, was helpless!

1 to 1!

Roma tied the score!

Each team scored a goal, and the two sides played more and more.

Before the end of the first half, both teams had a great opportunity, which was resolved by both goalkeepers.

Salah's lob shot after passing three people was firmly held by De Gea.

The Spanish goalkeeper is still one of the best goalkeepers in the world.

Ibrahimovic's close-range shot in the penalty area was punched out by Roma goalkeeper Alisson and cleared on the goal line.

This young Brazilian genius goalkeeper has become the focus of the world's attention, and his talent is visible to the naked eye.

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

In the second half, both sides continued to attack fiercely.

Mourinho asked the team to stay calm, but after Roma's fierce attack, their defense had many loopholes. How could Manchester United give up the opportunity to counterattack?

In the 58th minute of the game, Xia Xing received the ball in the middle and made a long pass without hesitation!

At this time, Roma's backcourt was empty!

There was only one defensive player beside Ibrahimovic, Fazio!

The ball flew over, Ibrahimovic gently cushioned it and stopped it steadily.

He pushed Fazio away with force, turned around and shot!

At such a close distance, Alisson was powerless!

The ball hit the net!

2 to 1!

Manchester United took the lead again!

Four minutes later, Manchester United counterattacked after another Roma attack.

It was Xia Xing who intercepted the ball again!

This time he was surrounded by De Rossi and Nainggolan!

He cleverly passed the ball in the crowd!

Pogba understood and received the ball in the middle!

He accelerated with the ball!

The Roma center gate was wide open!

30 meters away from the goal, Pogba kicked and shot!

The ball hit the net!

3 to 1!

Manchester United scored another goal!

The tacit cooperation between the two midfield supernovas!

Mourinho was in a very good mood on the sidelines!

He punched hard and hugged Pogba who rushed up!

"Paul, you are really great!"

Holding Pogba, Mourinho looked at Xia Xing who was not far away.

At this time, Xia Xing did not rush up to celebrate together. He was talking to Fellaini.

Even after scoring a goal, Xia Xing remained calm and analyzed tactics.

Although Pogba just scored successfully and the lead was expanded, the team's defense still had some minor problems.

Roma's continuous attack failed, which was also due to Manchester United's luck.

So now we must not be careless, we need to continue to strengthen the defense line and do a good job of defensive coordination.

Seemingly feeling something, Xia Xing looked up at the edge of the court.

At this time, Mourinho was hugging the excited Pogba, but his eyes were fixed on Xia Xing.

The two looked at each other and exchanged glances.

Xia, the pass just now was good, keep it up and keep winning!

It must be so!
