heir to the red devil

Chapter 678 Not at the same level

"Who can end Manchester United's behemoth, powerful and swift winning streak?"

On the Carrington training ground, Kintag held the "Manchester Evening News" and read the newspaper to the players.Since he coached Manchester United, reading newspapers to the players has always been his traditional program, either to motivate the players, or to help the players improve their morale, or to suppress the pride of the players.

After reading this article, Kintiger looked at his players: "I have a lot of confidence now that we can get the Premier League trophy this season, but it is not enough. At the press conference, the reporters asked me what happened to me this season. What is the goal of the game? I didn’t answer directly, because I didn’t want to put too much pressure on you. But I believe you all know what the goal is. Anthony, tell me what our goal is for this season?”

Griezmann, whose name was called, stood up and said vigorously: "Win all the victories, win all the championships!"

"Beautiful!" Jin Taige was very satisfied with this answer, "It seems that you have not forgotten your goal, so I am relieved. The Champions League is about to start. How well you perform in the league, I hope you can take care of yourself." Bringing such good form to the Champions League, we will get back what we lost this season!"

Although Kintag didn't say what he lost, the players knew it well.Especially Manchester United players who have experienced the first two seasons, they all know that Manchester United was eliminated by Real Madrid for two consecutive years, once in front of the Champions League final, and once in the Champions League final.Especially last year, they were treated unfairly, which eventually led to the loss of a good game and missed the Champions League trophy.

Hearing Jin Taige's words, the players were all gearing up, ready to go, ready to fight in the Champions League!
The players were training in groups on the training ground, and Ferran on the sidelines asked in a low voice: "Tiger, our Champions League opponent is Ghent, and their strength is not as good as the Chelsea and Leicester City we encountered before. Do we need to do this?" Nervous?"

Jin Taige shook his head: "Although Ghent is not strong, we have encountered away games consecutively. Although I have carried out a certain degree of rotation, the physical condition of the players will still have problems. Besides, there will be more and more heavyweight games in the future. At the end of the season, it will be a great test for the physical strength of the players and the state of the team, and if you don't pay attention, there will be problems, so I am so cautious."

Scholes agrees with Kintag: "Yes, it never hurts to be cautious."

Because in the last game against Sunderland, Kintag rotated the team and replaced most of the substitute players. Therefore, Kintag has a full main lineup for this important quarter-final of the Champions League.It is worth mentioning that in the last few games, Kintag has allowed Griezmann to appear consecutively.

The most outstanding player in Manchester United this season is Griezmann. With Van Persie getting old and Dybala still young, Griezmann and Lewandowski have become Manchester United's perfect risk killer partners. Has scored 49 goals, and Griezmann alone has scored 29 goals, including 20 league goals and 9 Champions League goals.Currently in the Premier League scorer list, Griezmann is thriving, with 2 goals more than No.5 Vardy.However, in the Champions League scorer list, Ronaldo topped the list with 10 goals, and Griezmann was second. It seems that Griezmann needs to surpass the Portuguese in front of him if he wants to win the Champions League Golden Boot.

In the last game against Sunderland, Kintag let Griezmann play for 60 minutes to find his status. Unexpectedly, he scored a hat-trick in only 60 minutes, which really surprised Kintag.

On the evening of February 2th, in Ghent, Belgium, a heavyweight match will be held here.The two sides at war are Premier League overlord Manchester United and Belgian giants Gent. The two teams will compete for a ticket to the Champions League quarter-finals.

There is a big difference in the strength of the two teams in this game, but because it is Gent's home game, and Gent has been in a good state in the league recently, so their fans are very eager for a miracle to happen.

But as soon as the game started, the Ghent fans were hit in the head.In the 8th minute of the game, Manchester United penetrated Gent's defense through a continuous pass in the frontcourt. Griezmann shot from the edge of the penalty area. He has been in excellent form recently and has a good shot. Go to the dead corner of the goal.

"1 to 0! Manchester United took the lead!"

"Only 8 minutes into the game, Manchester United gave the opponent a blow! Their quick attack broke through the opponent's defense easily, and Griezmann's shot seemed to be an understatement. It rolled into the bottom right corner of the goal!"

"Manchester United fans who came from afar were cheering in the stands, even they didn't expect this game to go so smoothly!"

After scoring the first goal, Manchester United continued to maintain its own rhythm.

In the 19th minute of the game, Lampard took a long shot from a distance of about 30 meters from the goal. The ball was fast and hard, and it directly blasted into the goal!

"2 to 0! Manchester United expanded their lead!"

"It seems that Ghent has no chance at all in this game! The difference in strength between them and Manchester United is too great!"

Ghent, who was still aggressive in the opening game, completely languished after being scored two goals by Manchester United.They immediately retreated in formation. Although the score was behind, they had to fight back defensively.However, Manchester United, which scored two goals, did not show any mercy, and still bombarded the opponent's goal indiscriminately.

In the 36th minute of the game, Valencia made an assist to the frontcourt. After he and De Bruyne cooperated continuously, he passed the ball directly into the penalty area. Hit the goal!
"3 to 0! Manchester United continue to score!"

After scoring three goals, Manchester United still showed no mercy. Their half in Ghent was like no one in the game, dribbling, dribbling, passing, and shooting. Manchester United players even felt that the difficulty of this game was not as good as that of a team. What about the internal training match?

When the first half ended, Manchester United had achieved a 3-0 lead, and they walked off the field chatting and laughing.

At this time, Trick of BT Sport said with emotion: "This game is simply too easy for Manchester United. They only spent 45 minutes in the away game, and they easily scored three away goals. You can study the team's opponents in the quarter-finals in advance."

And his partner Norrie said very firmly: "Manchester United's victory is certain, and these two teams are not at the same level at all."
