On the evening of August 8, after Kintag returned from London, he took the time to sort out the Chelsea team information that Phelan gave him, because on the afternoon of August 24, Chelsea will be a guest at Old Trafford Germany Stadium, against Manchester United.

On the morning of August 8th, Kintag watched the players on the sidelines in the training match. He complained to Scholes beside him: "Look at our next game, this is simply a devil's schedule!"

Looking at the game schedule in his hand, Scholes couldn't help feeling: "The next few games will not be easy to play."

Jin Taige looked at the schedule with a wry smile, he shook his head, forget it, let's think about tomorrow's game against Chelsea first.

On the afternoon of August 8th, Chelsea held a pre-match press conference. At the press conference, when the reporter asked what Mourinho's goal was for this game, Mourinho only said one sentence: "In the old Te Get the points you want at Rafford Stadium."

Everyone knows in their hearts that the "desired points" that Mourinho said is definitely not just 1 point.

At Manchester United's pre-match press conference later, a reporter asked Kintiger: "Mourinho said his goal is to get the points he wants at Old Trafford. What does Mr. Tiger think?"

Kintag shrugged: "Our goal is to leave Chelsea empty-handed."

The remarks of the head coaches of the two sides before the game made everyone very excited. They are looking forward to tomorrow's red and blue battle.

On August 8, one hour before the game, the players were warming up on the court. In the exit channel, Kintag and Mourinho met.They shook hands briefly.

Mourinho was expressionless: "We meet again."

Jin Taige nodded: "I said, I will definitely welcome you and your team well."

"Mr. Tiger is really a newborn calf, no wonder the media regards you as a new favorite." Mourinho said.

Kintag shook his head: "When it comes to dealing with the media, I am far behind you. The media can always find explosive news about the famous Mr. Mourinho. You alone feed half of England's sports media reporter."

Mourinho waved his hand: "After I came back from Spain, I have restrained a lot. But you, Mr. Tiger, first boasted about the triple crown, then held a darts league, and then announced a double-kill Liverpool at the reception. You are now the head of traffic for the English sports media, I heard that when many sports journalists wake up in the morning, they will draw a cross on their chests and say 'thank God for my golden tag'."

"Hahahaha!" Jin Taige laughed so hard that he couldn't straighten up, "I didn't expect Mourinho, who is always serious, to make a joke."

The two chatted and walked, and they left the player tunnel after a while.

At this time, the TV broadcast camera just caught the picture of the two people together.

"Let's see who this is? Oh, it turns out that the two protagonists of today's game are here." Sky TV host Raman said excitedly, "Although these two coaches were at war at yesterday's pre-match press conference, It looks very friendly now. Although it is so on the surface, we believe that the two will definitely fight for every inch of the field in a while. Mourinho has always been known as a "madman". From the performance point of view, he is not a good stubble, and the collision between these two people will definitely be very interesting."

Morris said on the side: "Manchester United beat Swansea 4-1 in the first game, but Swansea is weaker, and Kintag's ability is not enough to convince everyone. If he leads Manchester United To beat Chelsea today, that's..."

"That's impossible!" Morris said halfway, and Raman suddenly answered, "I'm still not optimistic about Manchester United in this game. If they can concede fewer goals, it will be thankful."

Morris shook his head helplessly, and instead of continuing to talk about this topic, he introduced the starting list: "We have already got today's starting list."

"Chelsea played a 4-2-3-1 formation: Petr Cech in goal; John Terry and Cahill in the middle in defence, Ashley Cole and Ivanovic one left and one right ; Lampard and Ramirez are in the defensive midfielder position; De Bruyne and Schurrle are in the left and right flanks; Oscar is in the forward midfielder position; Hazard is forward on the front line. Torres is on the bench , Mikel, Azpilicueta, Essien, Schwarzer, Mata and Demba Ba."

"Manchester United's starting lineup today is exactly the same as the previous game, a standard 4-4-2 formation: De Gea is the goalkeeper; Smalling, Ferdinand, Evra and Rafael are on the left and one on the defense. Right; Kante, who performed well in the last game, continued to start, with Carrick in the midfield, Ryan Giggs and Nani on the left and right; Rooney and Van Persie on the forward line. The seven substitute players are Alli Pine, Jones, Alonso, Anderson, Mahrez, Valencia and Icardi."

At this time, the court was already empty, and the players all returned to the locker room, preparing for the start of the game in 15 minutes.

Kintag pointed to the tactical board on the wall: "This is Chelsea's starting lineup, which is similar to what we have estimated these days. They are determined to play a defensive counterattack at Old Trafford. What does this mean?"

Kintag looked at the crowd: "Rafael, tell me, what does it mean that Chelsea are playing a defensive counterattack at our home court?"

Rafael is young, he has a cheerful and lively personality of a South American player, and he has always been everyone's pistachio during training.Hearing Kintag ask him this, Rafael stood up: "This means that Chelsea is afraid of us, and Mourinho is scared!"

"Beautiful!" Kintag even stepped forward happily to give Raphael a high-five, "You must remember that this is Old Trafford, not to mention Mourinho's Chelsea, even Real Madrid and Bayern Munich. , Juventus is here, we will do the same, they admit it!"
