heir to the red devil

Chapter 669 Four!
After winning Liverpool in the No.20 three rounds of the Premier League, Manchester United is in full swing. They have won another victory in the No.20 four rounds of the league.

In the Premier League game on January 1, Manchester United faced Southampton at home. In this game, Kintag rotated most of the players, because the second leg of the League Cup semi-final will be ushered in four days later, although Manchester United has three The goal difference is in hand, but Kintegger still dare not take it seriously. For Liverpool, a three-goal lead is not enough to celebrate the victory in advance...

Because of the rotation of many young players, Manchester United encountered some difficulties in this game. These difficulties did not appear on the defensive end, but more on the offensive end.

In this game, Kim Tag still sent the combination of Vidic and Umtiti.Kintag still wants to continue his previous thinking and let Vidic take Umtiti with him. With Vidic, the French defender has grown rapidly. Kintag is even considering Bailey's return next season. After that, let him partner with Umtiti to become another pair of central defenders for Manchester United.With their combination, plus Van Dijk and Coulibaly, these two defensive teams are enough to support Manchester United's multi-line operations.

With the cooperation of Vidic in this game, Umtiti did perform very well. The solid combination of the two of them made Manchester United's defense no worries.

But facing Southampton's defense, the Manchester United players were helpless.In this game, Manchester United's two forwards, Van Persie and Dybala, both of them got a few chances, but they both shot out of standard under the opponent's tight defense.

It was not until the 72nd minute of the game that Manchester United broke the deadlock.

This time it was the young Kimmich's sudden assist that disrupted Southampton's defense.He made a long pass from the right side of the penalty area, Van Persie shot in front of the goal, and the ball was stabbed into the dead corner of the goal!
In the end, Manchester United scored three points in a thrilling 1-0 score thanks to Van Persie's goal.

And on the fourth day after this game, Manchester United ushered in the fourth game against Liverpool this season-the second round of the League Cup semi-final.

The game was still played at Anfield, and Manchester United players were once again booed and abused by the Red Army fans.

This game was the best that Liverpool played. They played against Manchester United after the start, which caught Manchester United by surprise.Although Jin Taige made several tactical adjustments, he still didn't gain much.

For Klopp's team, if they find the rhythm of the game and control the game, then they will display a super offensive ability.

In this game, even Kroos and De Bruyne returned to the defense frequently to help the defender defend in order to protect the goal.

Liverpool, on the other hand, took every opportunity to bombard Manchester United's goal indiscriminately.

Neither side scored in the first half.

During the intermission, Kintag told the Manchester United players: "Since Liverpool attacked fiercely today, let's avoid the edge. If there is a chance to counterattack, we must seize it!"

Kintag’s move is not because he is afraid of Liverpool, but because he is worried that if the players are allowed to confront their opponents head-on, the probability of injury or red and yellow cards will increase. For Manchester United, the task in the second half of the season will be even heavier. , Jin Taige absolutely does not allow them to have unnecessary consumption in this game.

At the beginning of the second half, Kintag replaced Lewandowski with Martial, who has better speed and dribbling.

In the second half, Manchester United still defended steadily and did not attack easily.Anyway, Manchester United now holds three goal difference, they are not in a hurry, it is Liverpool who are in a hurry.

Sure enough, Liverpool attacked more fiercely in the second half, and Klopp replaced the offensive players in succession, wanting to put all his eggs in one basket to equalize the total score.However, under the leadership of Vidic, Manchester United's defense is impeccable.

At this time, Jin Taige was very emotional: "With Vidic's level and strength, it is a pity that he is going to retire this season. I think with his competitive state, it is absolutely impossible to play in Manchester United for another three years." Problem! Even if you can't start every game, it's good to be a rotation player. And his help to young players is also very important."

Scholes nodded: "Yes, captain, I think it's impossible to persuade him to withdraw his decision to retire; but we can try to lobby him, let him stay in the youth team, and teach young people with Ryan. How good is this, player."

"Well, you're right, not only him, but even Ferdinand would be best able to stay in the team."

Manchester United's defense is very solid, Liverpool is playing more and more anxiously, and there are holes in their defense.

After a brilliant tackle from Kante, he kicked the ball forward with a big kick, as Griezmann and Martial picked up speed at the same time, and Liverpool's defenders chased back together.The ball was closer to Griezmann and he stopped the ball.

At this time Mignolet had already rushed out of the penalty area, trying to break Griezmann's ball.

Griezmann made a light move and immediately passed Mignolet.The rest is very simple.

"Griezmann missed Mignolet! Shot! Goal!!!"

"Liverpool can't attack Manchester United for a long time, but Manchester United scored the first goal!"

"The starting point of this goal is Kanter's tackle, and the biggest contributor to the goal is Griezmann!"

"The Frenchman has ushered in an explosion this season. He has now scored 18 goals in the league and continues to lead the Premier League scorer list!"

This goal occurred in the 78th minute of the game, and this goal completely pushed Liverpool into the abyss.If they want to advance, then they have to score at least 15 goals in the remaining 5 minutes or so!
Facing the current Manchester United, this is an absolutely impossible task for Liverpool...

In the next ten minutes or so, Liverpool's offensive gradually weakened. They seemed to have no hope of advancing, and Klopp no ​​longer stood on the sidelines, but sat back on the coach's seat, stunned. in a daze.

When he was in the Bundesliga before, Klopp's opponent was only Bayern; after joining Liverpool in the Premier League, Klopp realized that the difficulty of the Premier League is far more than that of the Bundesliga...

In the end, Manchester United won the game with a score of 1-0.With an absolute lead of 4 to 0 in total, they won the ticket to the League Cup final.

After the game, Kintag came to the stands of Manchester United fans again. This time he held his head high and proudly stretched out four fingers, fulfilling the promise he made a few days ago to the fans.

I, Kim Tag, killed Liverpool four times this season!Mission accomplished!
