Chapter 418 Community Shield Cup
Among the major European leagues, the start time of the Premier League is relatively early. The first round of the Premier League will be played on August 8. Manchester United's first game will welcome the underdog Swansea at home.

But before this game, what lies ahead of Manchester United is the Community Shield game.

This season Kintegger's lineup has undergone a lot of changes. First of all, the starting two forwards are a brand new combination; secondly, the midfield style of play has also undergone a lot of changes. With the addition of Lampard this season, Manchester United's midfield has become a dual-core configuration. Although De Bruyne went to the right, Kintag gave him full freedom. The situation adjusts itself though.

The Community Shield match will be held at Wembley Stadium on August 8.

In this game, the head coaches of both sides worked hard.Kintag wanted to win the game and start the new season well; while Pellegrini, because Manchester United grabbed their league title last season, so this game is desperately trying to regain ground.

Compared with last season, Manchester City's starting lineup in this game has not changed much. The biggest change is the debut of the new French aid Mangala.He is a young central defender dug from Porto by Pellegrini this summer. They were cheated by Portuguese black shops for 4000 million euros.

Kintag was very puzzled by Pellegrini's transfer. For 4000 million euros to buy a young man who only made a slight appearance in the Portuguese league, Pellegrini's cost of scratching the lottery ticket this time is a bit high.

Another signing of Manchester City this summer also came from Porto. They spent 1500 million euros to buy Brazilian midfielder Fernando, making him a substitute for Yaya Toure and Fernandinho.

In this game, the two new aids all appeared.

Manchester City played a 4-4-2 formation in this game, goalkeeper Joe Hart, four defenders Kolarov, Kompany, Mangala, Clichy; four midfielders are Silva, Yaya ?Toure, Fernando, Nasri, the two forwards are Dzeko and Aguero, one high and one fast.

It can be seen from the many good attackers in Manchester City's lineup that Pellegrini is going to attack aggressively in this game.

On the other side of Manchester United, Kintag also arranged a 4-4-2 formation: the goalkeeper is De Gea; the defense is Smalling and Vidic partnering the central defender combination, and the left and right sides are Alonso and Rafael ;The midfielder is Kanter and Lampard, Mahrez and De Bruyne one left and one right; the striker is a combination of Lewandowski and Griezmann.

In this game, Kintag also asked the players to attack boldly. He wanted to test the results of the team's summer training and the status of the players in the new season.

From the very beginning of this game, both sides played very openly.The first to score was Lewandowski.

In the 9th minute of the game, after De Bruyne broke through Kolarov on the right, he found Lewandowski with a precise cross. Lewandowski jumped high and headed into the net.

1 to 0, Manchester United lead the score!
This ball was very easy for Lewandowski. His precise positioning made it impossible for the young Mangala to stop his header. After scoring the goal, Lewandowski just waved his hand and did not do much celebration.

For him, scoring a goal at this level is not worth celebrating at all.

A few minutes later, Manchester United's attack came back.This time it was Lampard's through ball, or Lewandowski got the ball. He turned and shot in front of the penalty area, but was saved by Joe Hart.Griezmann, who was waiting in the penalty area, shot at thunderous speed, and the ball rolled into the net.

2 to 0, Manchester United expanded the score!

Just 15 minutes into the game, Manchester United had already led 2-0, which made the Manchester United coaching staff very excited.Phelan excitedly said to Jin Taige: "Tiger, I was worried about our scoring ability this season. Rooney is gone and Van Persie is injured. Will our offense be weak this season? But now I see, this The champion of the season is here again! Hahahaha!"

Jin Taige was also very happy.Although he doesn't dare to assert the title of the champion now, but it depends on the situation of this game. Manchester City, which was strong last season, was beaten without any power to fight back today. This makes Jin Taige very satisfied with his offensive line.

Kintag was happy, but Pellegrini was very unhappy.He shouted to his players from the sidelines to cheer them up.

"This is not a friendly match! This is a derby match! Let's cheer up!"

Under Pellegrini's loud reprimand, the Manchester City players seemed to have just woken up, and they entered the state of the game.In the next period of time, Manchester City gradually controlled the situation of the game.

In the 21st and 32nd minutes of the game, Aguero scored two goals in a row to equalize the score. These two goals were all opportunities to break through Smalling and finally turned into goals.

Seeing this situation, Jin Taige frowned off the field.Scholes beside him murmured: "Both balls are due to Smalling."

Kintag looked at Smalling on the field, he was a little helpless: "If Smalling is due to a mistake, then I can understand, but these two goals are Aguero breaking through Smalling 1-on-1. It is completely a manifestation of personal ability. Aguero is a world-class striker, but Smalling is only a Premier League defender, and he is not even the top defender in the Premier League. It seems that I really have to think about him. There is a problem with the starting position."

Seeing Smalling being continuously broken through, Vidic whispered a few words to him, so when Aguero dribbled forward again, the person blocking him became Vidic.Aguero made several fake moves, Vidic was unmoved, and finally Aguero passed the ball to the wing to seek opportunities.

In the 44th minute of the game, Manchester City attacked from the left, and Nasri passed the ball to the center. Aguero was extremely fast, shoveled into the net, and staged a hat-trick of the game.

When the first half ended, the game between the two sides was 3-2, with Manchester United trailing.

Aguero, who scored three goals, walked off the field triumphantly, as if he had helped the team win the game and became the hero of the audience.

Ferran looked at him very upset: "Isn't it just scoring three goals in the Community Shield Cup, what is there to be proud of, huh."

Scholes frowned: "Although he is uncomfortable to see, it cannot be denied that Aguero is indeed a world-class striker."

At this moment, Phelan was startled suddenly: "Paul, what's wrong with Tiger? What does he want to do?"

Scholes turned his head to look at Kintag, and saw him clenched his fists and went straight to Aguero's direction, looking like he was going to fight!
