Chapter 427 Encountering Intensive Defense Again
Manchester United struggled to win Leicester City at the King Power Stadium, scored 3 points, and continued to lead the Premier League standings.

Seven days later, Manchester United ushered in a challenge from Queens Park Rangers at home.

Queens Park Rangers are the newly promoted Premier League this season. They have not done much in the transfer market. The team also stumbled into the Premier League last season. They only played in the Premier League with the starting lineup of the British Championship last season.

After 90 minutes of the game, the newly promoted team saw the strength of last season's Premier League champions.

3 to 0!Manchester United simply won the game!
In this game, Kintag sent the full main lineup. Lewandowski and Griezmann continued the good momentum of scoring. In this game, Smalling also scored a header from a corner kick to help the team expand. Score advantage.

Seeing that Manchester United continues to be in good form, Kintag is naturally very happy.

Three days later, the third round of the English League Cup officially began.Manchester United's opponent is the League One team Bradford. Their strength is far from Manchester United. This is another game without any suspense.

Jin Taige rotated all the main players and replaced them with substitute players. Even so, their strength was far superior to that of their opponents, so the game was played very easily.

After 90 minutes of the game, with Icardi's hat-trick and Valencia's violent long-range shot, Manchester United defeated their opponents 4-0 and successfully advanced to the next round of the League Cup!
Three days after the League Cup, Manchester United ushered in the sixth round of the league, playing against West Ham at home.

Although it was a continuous battle, these three games were all at Manchester United's home court, and the players were spared the pain of exhaustion.

On the evening of September 9, Old Trafford ushered in their sixth opponent in the league, West Ham.In this game, Manchester United played with all their main force. Amidst the cheers of the home fans, the Manchester United players launched a fierce attack on West Ham's goal with a devastating momentum!

In this game, West Ham set up a bus. Their goal today is very clear, that is, they just want to take away a point. Therefore, when they reported the game list, the report said 5-4-1 formation, But in the game, their formation can almost be described as a 10-0-0 formation...

Manchester United players bombarded West Ham's gate, but nothing was gained.

Manchester United fans in the stands booed everywhere.

"London trash, are you so timid?"

"A bunch of cowards, go back to your hometown!"

"If you have the ability to attack, don't be like a turtle!"

But no matter how the home fans ridicule, no matter how Manchester United attack, West Ham will stick to their own half without wavering.

The entire first half turned into a half-time offensive and defensive drill for Manchester United, and West Ham didn't even have a shot.

Seeing this situation, Ferlan on the sidelines was very anxious, and he even cursed: "S**T! These cowardly and cowardly trash!"

Scholes was also very anxious. He asked Kim Tag: "Captain, what should we do now?"

Although the team's offense was blocked, Kintag's face was very calm: "We won a wave of consecutive victories at the beginning, and our attack power is the best in the Premier League. West Ham avoids the edge and chooses to defend. This is also their normal tactic. If I change Become the coach of West Ham, and I will do the same. Paul, Phelan, don’t worry, we are getting stronger and stronger now, and there will be more teams in the future. When facing us, they will choose to take the bus, so today We will encounter difficulties in the future. Now let’s look at the situation on the court. If there is still no change, then I will make adjustments during the intermission.”

After Jin Taige finished speaking, he came to the sidelines and greeted the players loudly, and continued to attack; he especially asked the two wingers to press boldly and increase their offensive strength.

Although Manchester United took turns attacking West Ham, until the end of the first half, the score was still fixed at 0-0, and the Manchester United players returned to the locker room unwillingly.

During the intermission, Kintag made adjustments to the team's tactics. He replaced Smalling and Martial, let Martial go to the right, and let De Bruyne go to the right. Moved in the middle to enhance his chances of working with Lampard.

Then Kintag replaced Kanter with Cross. He asked Cross to pass more threatening balls and continue to strengthen the midfield attack.

In this way, Manchester United's formation became 3-5-2, and only Vidic was left in front of De Gea.But recalling that West Ham didn't have a shot in the entire first half, presumably they will not pose any threat to Manchester United's goal in the second half.

Kintag also considered this situation in advance. If West Ham suddenly attacked in the second half, Lampard would withdraw to the position of the midfielder to protect the defense.You must know that Lampard at his peak was an all-round midfielder who could attack and defend well. Even though he is a little older now, he still has full defensive experience.

Moreover, Kintag asked Martial, Mahrez and other dribblers to boldly control the ball and break through, and create as many set-piece opportunities as possible.And Lampard and De Bruyne can also hit a dozen long shots when they are free.

After all, there are limited means of breaking dense defenses, and set-pieces and long-range shots are two powerful weapons.

At the beginning of the second half, Jin Taige saw that West Ham had no intention of attacking at all. It seemed that they planned to stick to it for 90 minutes.

In the next time, Manchester United continued to practice halftime shooting.

Lewandowski in the penalty area didn't get any good chances today. He couldn't even touch the ball in the double-teaming of West Ham; and Griezmann was also stared at by West Ham defenders and had no chance to attack. .

At this time, it is time to test the players.

In the 62nd minute of the game, Mahrez passed two West Ham players in a row near the penalty area on the left, but lost his balance and fell into the penalty area.

"I didn't touch him!" West Ham defender Jenkinson raised his hands to appeal to the referee.

But at this time, it can be seen that the West Ham players are inexperienced, the ball is still on the field, and the referee has not blown the whistle. How can we do other things at this time?
Although Mahrez lost his balance, the moment he fell to the ground, he tried his best to sweep the ball towards the penalty area. At this time, the only players who were paying attention were marking Lewandowski in the center of the penalty area, and no one noticed. to Griezmann.

When Mahrez broke through, Griezmann was already ready to go in front of the penalty area. His erratic movement threw off the West Ham players marking him, and then came to the left side of the penalty area.When Griezmann saw that Mahrez was about to fall to the ground, with the keen sense of a shooter, Griezmann sprinted into the penalty area ahead of time, shoveled the ball and scored the ball into the net!

1 to 0, Manchester United finally took the lead!
