Football: The strongest center in history

Chapter 663: A complete victory

“Seventh minute!! Ronaldo scored in the seventh minute of this game!! ”

“Aaaaa What an inexplicable goal machine, no matter where he is, he is always so able to score!! ”

Whether it was Alder Verereld or Fertonheim, it was difficult to stop him with his body after he rushed up – these two men looked too thin in the face of Ronado.

When Valencia got up to pass the ball, Ronaldo was already fully up and Alder Verereld was quite aware of Ronaldo’s ability, but against Ronaldo, who was completely rushing, even if he grabbed Ronaldo’s jersey with both hands, he did not hold him back.

One to zero!

Manchester United got off to a fantastic start.

Ronaldo beckoned his team-mates over to celebrate, and United fans cheered from the stands at Old Trafford.

Pochettino underestimated his opponents, or rather, he overestimated Tottenham’s attacking abilities.

The new signings brought in by Manchester United, except for Sandro who seemed slightly flustered at first, quickly stabilized their position, and Tottenham undoubtedly miscalculated by focusing on them.

And then, Manchester United’s counter-attack was also quite fluid, the presence of Mata up front was very crucial, through his connection in the central midfield, he found holes in the Tottenham defence that were hastily retreated.

The goal was assisted by Valencia and Ronaldo sent the ball into the net.

But Juan Mata, who is second to last, was undoubtedly the key to the goal.

Moyes got up from his seat and applauded Mata’s performance.

Two years ago, when Mata was at Chelsea, in the 2012-2013 season, Juan Mata was undoubtedly the brightest of all Chelsea stars at the time, contributing nineteen goals in all competitions and providing an eye-popping thirty-five assists, a statistic that made Mata the European assist king that season.

In his second season at Chelsea, Juan Mata was named Chelsea’s Player of the Year for two consecutive years with excellent performances. However, after Rinho returned to Chelsea in the 13-14 season, Mata was not used, and because of this, Juan Mata came to Manchester United.

But perhaps because of sitting on the bench for more than half a season, Mata failed to find his best form at Manchester United, and his performances have been up and down during a season and a half at Manchester United.

For Moyes, reactivating Mata is undoubtedly a focus of his work. If Juan Mata can find the form he did in the early Chelsea period on the right wing, United’s attacking routine can be enriched.

Shinji Kagawa’s side is undoubtedly a more single attack, creating chances through Shinji Kagawa’s cross.

However, on Mata’s side, the routine can be more complicated to dominate the attack on this side, and Moyes has also given Mata a very free way of playing.

For a player, the manager’s trust is undoubtedly a boost to his or her confidence.

The horse abandoned by Jose Mourinho and entrusted by David Moyes at Manchester United undoubtedly gave Mata a lot of confidence.

After Manchester United’s players celebrated the goal, the players on Tottenham’s side were much more helpless.

Pochettino wanted to play Manchester United’s side with an unstable foothold, but he wanted to be broken through the defense by a counter-attack.

The so-called wrong step, wrong step, then Tottenham pressed to equalize as soon as possible, but in the 26th minute, Manchester United gave Tottenham another blow.

Another quick counter-attack, Eriksen’s shot from the outside was firmly held by De Gea, who then did not lose time and threw the ball to right-back Valencia.

Mata pulled back to answer, received the ball, turned around and made a long pass, and found Shinji Kagawa who cut forward.

Shinji Kagawa received the ball on the left and passed the ball to Ronaldo’s feet, and Ronado did not stop the ball and directly completed a two-on-two cooperation with Shinji Kagawa.

Shinji Kagawa dribbled the ball into the box, and before the defender stepped forward to block, he poked his right foot with his toe and pierced the goal!

Two to zero!

Manchester United’s two consecutive high-quality counter-attacks have left Tottenham a bit at a loss, and they don’t know now whether they should continue to press up and attack, or retreat to the back and stabilize their position.

In the end, Pochettino decided to be conservative first, as United’s counter-attacking threat was too great, and he had to wait until half-time to make targeted arrangements for United’s counter-attack.

And before that, you must first stabilize your position, so as not to be beaten by the opponent in the first half.

Tottenham began to seek stability and retreated at half-time.

But even then, they failed to stop United’s goal.

Tottenham retreated, and Manchester United pressed up and began to organize positional attacks.

In the 39th minute, Shinji Kagawa broke through on the left and created a foul on his opponent.

Juan Mata crossed the ball into the box and accurately found it over Ronaldo’s head.

Ronaldo jumped high and smashed the ball into Tottenham’s goal.

Three to zero!!

Pochettino sat back in the dugout and the game was over, with Tottenham’s hopes of scoring points at Old Trafford largely dashed.

In the second half, Tottenham wanted to launch a counter-attack, but United were firmly in control of the situation, and in the 77th minute, Ronaldo received a long pass from the back and headed the ball to Mata.

Juan Mata’s left-footed volley from inside the box helped Manchester United seal the victory once and for all!

Four to zero!!

In the first round of the Premier League opener, Manchester United beat Tottenham Hotspur 4-0 at home, and United’s three attackers, Ronaldo, Shinji Kagawa and Mata, all scored goals and showed very good form.

In terms of the backline, the new players adapted to the game very quickly, especially central defender Hummels, who was quite calm and did not differ much from his performance in the Bundesliga.

Moyes’ side won one game. _
