I am the head coach

Chapter 359 Passive First Half
The game continued, just thanks to Rashford being happy enough.

Otherwise Hague is already behind, Xue Yang wiped the sweat from his brow.

The Hague started Zakaria and De Jong today, but to Xue Yang's regret, both of them have average long-range shots.

This made Xue Yang miss Milinkovic. Milinkovic's long-range shooting ability is very good.

People watching today basically think that Manchester United can have the last laugh.

Because Manchester United is stronger on paper, but the process is still very surprising.

Manchester United's advantage is not that great, and Den Haag's pressing made Manchester United very uncomfortable.

Regarding the high-intensity defense of The Hague, Manchester United coach Mourinho did not expect it.

It is estimated that Manchester United is not in a good state today, and the ten minutes before the game are quite boring.

The possession of the ball was changed back and forth, at the feet of The Hague for a while, and at the feet of Manchester United for a while.

Apart from an initial knock, there were no threatening knocks.

The most threatening thing was Manchester United right back Damian's long shot.

Although the football has a little arc, it is played really well.

He was firmly hugged by goalkeeper Ruyter, and there was no effective offense other than that.

20 minutes passed quickly, and the coaches of both sides were standing on the sidelines.

And they are all frowning, it can be seen that the coaches of both sides are not satisfied.

Xu Qiang was dissatisfied with the team's offense, and only hit the goal until now.

As for Mourinho, he is also dissatisfied with the team's offense.

Although they had shots, the chances were not good.

They tried to lob the ball and pass the football into the penalty area.

But there are two big central defenders in the Hague penalty area, and Manchester United has nothing to do.

The current Ruben Dias and Skriniar are not when Xue Yanggang came to The Hague, and now both of them have grown in ability.

The two of them have the strength to gain a foothold in the upper and middle teams of the five major leagues, and Den Haag's defense is indeed stable.

Moreover, the two midfielders in the Hague midfielder have relatively strong defensive capabilities.

Several times, they were intercepted by Den Haag just after halftime.

Finally, after a foul in The Hague, Manchester United chose to pass to Pogba quickly.

Pogba diverted the ball to the right and right back Damian stepped in to receive the pass.

After Damian received the pass, he dribbled the ball forward at full speed.

Soon he came to the right side of the penalty area, and the full-back Williams quickly defended him.

Damian chose to pass the ball, this time he did not choose a high ball, and passed it to the penalty spot.

Although Williams tried hard to keep up, he still couldn't touch the ball.

The football still rolled over, and Damian made a smart pass.

And he found Martial for this pass, and Martial couldn't help but feel happy when he saw this pass.

Because the defense around him was a little away from him at this time, De Jong quickly defended from the side.

Martial kicked the rolling football with his right foot, and De Jong shoveled towards the football decisively.

However, Martial was a fake move. I saw that he made a fake shot with his right foot and actually dunked De Jong with the slider.

After the football was buckled to his left foot, Martial took a step and hit the goal directly with his left foot.

At this time, all the Den Haag fans held their breath. This attack was too dangerous.

And Martial's kick was indeed threatening, and Den Haag's goalkeeper Ruyter flew to save it.

This kind of ball can only be watched by the goalkeeper, but Ruyter did not disappoint, he actually threw the football.

The football was saved by him from the bottom line, preventing Manchester United's most threatening shot.

"Wow! The ball has landed!" He Wei exclaimed and explained.

"Martial has really handled the ball very well. After dunking the defender, he shot with his left foot."

"It's a pity that the goalkeeper in The Hague is too brave, and all such inevitable goals are saved."

"This is definitely the most threatening shot today. It seems that Den Haag is at a disadvantage at present." Xu Yang continued to explain.

Martial saw the ball being saved and held his head in his hands.

This ball is really a pity, he has handled it very well.

Xue Yang couldn't help heaving a sigh of relief when he saw this one rushing out.

Sure enough, Manchester United is still strong, Xue Yang's face is getting more and more serious.

I don't know if this attack has brought Manchester United back to their form, and they have become more and more stable with the ball.

Den Haag's pressing effect is getting smaller and smaller, which is not good news for Den Haag.

However, before the game, Xue Yang was mentally prepared. After all, the opponent was Manchester United, so it was normal for him to be at a disadvantage.

Time passed quickly, and before I knew it, 30 minutes had passed.

Pogba dribbled forward with the ball, and De Jong defended it.

However, I saw Pogba suddenly change direction to the right, and after taking two steps, he shot a long shot directly from a position far away from the penalty area.

Pogba is not a good choice for this ball because he is too far from the goal.

But the quality of the long-range shot is still good, the football flew to the upper right corner of the goal like a missile.

But he was not very lucky today, and the football hit the right post.

And because his long-range shot was too sudden, Manchester United's players have not yet run into the penalty area.

So there was no second point to keep up, and the ball returned to Den Haag.

Although this long shot hit the post, it still put a lot of pressure on The Hague.

Within a few minutes, Manchester United launched an attack again, and the football came to the feet of Mata on the right.

He stopped the football facing the defender, and he was waiting for the full-back to come in.

But Damian did not disappoint him, and Damian hurried forward.

Mata pushed the football forward, and Damian continued to dribble forward after receiving the football.

Soon Damian took the ball to the right outside the penalty area, and Williams gave up defending Mata and chased Damian.

After all, Damian is holding the ball, and Williams is faster than Damian.

Williams caught up to Damian on the right side outside the penalty area, and Damian chose to cross again without the slightest hesitation.

It's still a low pass, and he has already passed several such balls today.

Damian performed very well today, the football was passed to the goal.

Manchester United played a good counterattack this time, and Rashford was galloping at full speed.

Soon he ran to the goal, and the football rolled over at this time.

Rashford raised his foot towards the football, and Den Haag goalkeeper Ruyter made another save.

Ruyter performed well today and made several saves, especially Martial's hit before.

But this time Ruyter failed to save the team, the ball flew past him and into the goal.

After scoring, Rashford ran to the sidelines excitedly, wanting to celebrate his goal.

However, the whistle stopped him, and he turned to look at the referee.

The referee signaled that the ball was offside, and Rashford's goal was invalid!
