Chapter 665 The FA Cup Begins

During the intermission, although Kintag and Klopp were in different locker rooms, they both made the same decision: continue to increase their offensive efforts in the second half!

For Liverpool, they had only one way to attack in the second half; for Manchester United, Kintag hoped that he could get more goal difference to deal with the second round of the League Cup.

After the start of the second half of the game, Liverpool's offense did improve a lot. They received Klopp's instructions to use more personal skills to tear through Manchester United's defense.Several of Liverpool's offensive players have good long-range shots, so Klopp also asked them to play a dozen more long-range shots to threaten Manchester United's goal.

These two tricks did give them some effect. At the beginning of the second half, Manchester United's defense appeared in danger several times. Thanks to De Gea's excellent performance, they were able to keep the goal.

The player who is currently the biggest threat to Manchester United is Coutinho. He can be said to be the core of Liverpool's frontcourt attack. He is an all-around player. With him on the court, Liverpool has countless possibilities for changes.

At this time, Kintag also made targeted defensive arrangements.He asked the team to conduct a regional defense against Coutinho. If Coutinho appeared near the midfield, Kanter would conduct a man-to-man defense to prevent him from taking a long shot easily; Once inside the penalty area, Van Dijk used his physical advantage to mark him, not giving him the chance to turn around and shoot.When these two players are man-to-man, other players must actively defend to prevent gaps.

After Kintag's arrangement, Manchester United's defense gradually stabilized, Coutinho gradually lost his power, and other players also got lost under Manchester United's defensive formation.

One ebb and flow, again on the basis, Manchester United continued to use fast breaks to hit Liverpool's goal.

In the 68th minute of the game, Manchester United got a chance through a midfield steal.

This time it was Kroos who broke the ball at Firmino's feet. He looked at the frontcourt, and then made a decisive long pass to Griezmann who was going forward.

Griezmann had already seen the trajectory of the ball before he received the ball. He looked at Lovren who was running towards him, and then Griezmann took the ball lightly and passed Lovren immediately. , and then only off the restricted area!
At this time Mignolet rushed to attack, and Griezmann did not hesitate. He lightly poked the far corner before Mignolet attacked, and the ball rolled from Mignolet's armpit into the net.

3 to 0!Manchester United won this game!

The whole Old Trafford stadium fell into a carnival again!

After scoring this goal, Liverpool was completely angry.Klopp replaced three underperforming players in one breath, replaced with three offensive players, and started a desperate attack.

In the next period of time, Manchester United also began to recover appropriately, carrying Liverpool's offense while waiting for the opportunity to counterattack quickly.

In the last 20 minutes, Liverpool did get a few good chances, but they failed to grasp them; while Manchester United also got two single-handed goals through fast breaks, but the final shots missed the goal.

The final score of this game was fixed at 3-0. Manchester United won a big victory at home. They have already stepped into the League Cup final with one foot.

And Klopp also made up his mind that they must strengthen their beliefs in the second round of the game and strive to play a big reversal game.

After the game, Kintag and Klopp just shook hands politely, and then let go immediately without saying anything.Just like before the start of the game, he looks like a passerby.

In fact, both of them have some regrets in their hearts.Two people who respected each other turned from friends to enemies all of a sudden, this feeling is not easy for anyone.But there is no way, this is not decided by two people, but by two teams.

After winning this game, Manchester United has been on a winning streak recently. Since October 2015, 10, after Manchester United was tied by Crystal Palace in the away game, until now, Manchester United has won consecutive victories!And it is still a winning streak on all fronts!This result is simply terrifying!
9 Premier League games, 13 Champions League games, [-] League Cup games, Manchester United has won [-] consecutive games in the past two months!

These excellent results made the Manchester United players very excited. They were also very happy on the training ground, and laughter flew over the Carrington training base.

But Kintag has some worries.

Although it is good for Manchester United to win consecutive victories, Kintag can clearly feel that the entire Manchester United team is a little impetuous.If this feeling of pride is not eliminated, then if they encounter a strong team, or encounter a slight loss, the team will collapse thousands of miles.

Jin Taige is going to find an opportunity to be vigilant and vigilant to the players.

Jin Taige's premonition is really very good.

On the afternoon of January 1th, Manchester United ushered in the third round of the FA Cup this season at home. Their opponent was the Championship team Sheffield United.Manchester United's FA Cup journey this season has just begun.

This game was originally a very ordinary game.Manchester United's morale is high recently, and they have won [-] consecutive victories. This game is still at home, and the opponent is also a weak team in the British Championship. difficulty.

But they didn't expect that this game was unexpectedly difficult.

"Manchester United scored an own goal! This goal is really unlucky! The ball hit Valencia who was returning to defense, and then bounced a very strange arc. The ball bypassed De Gea's hands and only went into the net. nest!"

"Under the situation where Manchester United can't attack for a long time, the opponent actually broke the goal with a counterattack! You must know that this is Sheffield United's first shot in this game!"

"1 to 0! Manchester United is now passive on the scene! You must know that for a team that is desperately defending, as long as they let them lead the score, then everything will be hard to say."

The home fans were also dumbfounded. They didn't expect their players to be so unlucky and score an own goal.

And Valencia, the captain on the field who scored this goal, also blamed himself very much. He shook his head vigorously, and he couldn't believe the situation just now.

Seeing that Manchester United was falling behind, Jin Taige came to the sidelines from the coaching bench. He wanted to say something, but he didn't say anything in the end.He just sat back on the coach's bench, his face livid, and he didn't say a word.

When the Manchester United players saw Jin Taige like this, their hearts trembled: the boss is angry, the really angry kind...
