The Red Devils' revival starts with retaining Mourinho

Then there are midfielders such as Marco Verratti, Dani Olmo, Bruno Fernandez, Rodrigo Hernandez, Aurelian Chuameni, Nico Williams, Jude Bellingham, Jesse Lingard, Juan Mata, Scott McTominay, etc.

• Passing training in quick counterattacks: In order to seize the gaps left behind by Bayern's attack, Manchester United's midfielders conduct passing training in quick counterattacks. In the training, the midfielders practiced launching a counterattack quickly after getting the ball at the first time, and accurately passing the ball to the striker with one or two passes. For example, when the defender steals the ball, the midfielder should quickly move forward, and after receiving the ball, according to the forward's running position, use a precise straight or diagonal pass to tear open the opponent's defense line.

• On-the-spot counter-grabbing training after midfielder pressing: Considering the ball control ability of Bayern's midfield, Manchester United's midfielders conduct on-the-spot counter-grabbing training after pressing. When the Bayern midfielder loses the ball after pressing, immediately launch a counter-grab on the spot, not giving the opponent a chance to breathe.

The coach arranges different types of crosses and through balls, and the forwards practice accurately judging the landing point of the ball in the penalty area, and then quickly shoot. In training, the forwards need to improve their reaction speed and ability to predict the ball path. Whether it is a header or a foot shot, they must complete the shooting action in the shortest time.

• Forward and midfielder connection training: In order to improve the fluency of the attack, the forwards and midfielders conduct connection training. The forwards practiced creating passing routes for the midfielders through flexible running positions, while the midfielders practiced sending threatening passes in time according to the forwards' running positions. For example, the forwards pulled the opponent's defense line by retreating, diagonally inserting and other running positions, and the midfielders sent a penetrating pass in time according to the forwards' running positions, so that the forwards could receive the ball in the gap of the opponent's defense line and form a shooting opportunity.
