But unfortunately, the ball went out of his control after a slightly crooked arc in the air.

This caused his position to be chaotic, and there was a gap in front of the door.

"boom!!"

Another powerful header hit, and the football went straight through the dense crowd in the penalty area and flew towards the right corner of the goal.

De Gea had no time to go back to the right, so he could only lean over there as much as possible, and then watched the football into the net with some embarrassment.

"Yeahhhhhh!!!"

Then, the Cypriots who came from the expedition shouted excitedly, and the stands were full of jubilation.

The goal is scored, one to one!

The Cypriots equalized!

The player who scored the goal was No. [-], and now he rushed to the sidelines with flushed faces and yelled, slipped and knelt out.

There are only 2 people at APOEL's home court. I am used to playing in that stadium. When I came to Old Trafford, a giant stadium with more than 7 people, I scored a goal. This feeling is indescribable. .

He couldn't control his excitement anymore.

"Very beautiful!"

"Good shot, bro!"

The other APOEL players also shouted and followed, all looking very excited.

There is no doubt that this goal also gave them encouragement.

The shouts of more than 3 expedition fans and the hot atmosphere on the scene made their desire to score goals very strong.

Who wouldn't want to score a Manchester United goal at Old Trafford and then go out and brag about it for the rest of their lives?

The APOEL coach on the sidelines also couldn't restrain his emotions at the moment, and ran along the sideline to celebrate, regardless of his own image.

This somewhat irritated Mourinho next to him.

Mourinho put his hands in his pockets at this time, looking at the Manchester United players with their heads down on the field, he didn't know what to say for a while.

In fact, it is best for Lu Chenfeng to go back for a corner kick.

With his ability to compete for the top, there must be no problem marking the player who just scored a goal.

But I was careless at the time, and I didn't expect that this corner kick could really create a goal.

I originally thought that this team would be completely misfired when they came to Old Trafford. How could this look at this posture? The two teams may still have a goal battle today?

Mourinho thought silently in his heart that this conceded goal was the price he paid for underestimating the enemy just now.

Of course, there is also the pressure of the opponent regardless of the consequences.

"Press out and fight, don't defend. If they want to fight like this, let's try to fight against each other and see whose spear is stronger."

Mourinho shouted towards the field, and then sat back in the coach's seat.

Fight against attack!

He doesn't believe it anymore, APOEL beat Manchester United?

"Beep!"

The game quickly resumed, and Lu Chenfeng once again sent the center circle ball for Manchester United.

Not too unexpectedly, the APOEL players continued to come out in full force, ready to repeat their tricks, and then look for an opportunity to smash a goal at Manchester United.

After Pogba got the ball, he didn't choose to control the ball in the backcourt. After a simple dribble, he made a long pass and hit Ibrahimovic's head.

"boom."

Ibrahimovic threw his head to Martial on the wing, and it played the role of a fulcrum.

United's attack began to organize quickly, threatening the APOEL goal.

This attack finally ended with Martial's long-range anti-aircraft gun. Today, he was a little nervous and kicked a little eagerly in the attack.

It may be that Rashford put a lot of pressure on him in the last game, eager to prove himself and stabilize his starting position.

But sometimes, the more this is the case, the more it will backfire.

This situation intensified in the following time, gradually causing Martial to lose confidence in this game.

In the 206th minute of the game, his cross passed directly to the opponent's goalkeeper, wasting an excellent opportunity.

There are already three high points in the penalty area to respond, but it is a pity that they did not pass in.

In the 301st minute of the game, he made another reckless breakthrough, which led to the loss of the ball directly, allowing the opponent to launch a quick counterattack, and Tina broke the goal.

"damn it!"

Martial kicked the lawn of Old Trafford and complained that his mood was not right.

Mourinho, on the sidelines, felt more and more dissatisfied and disappointed.

"Rashford, warm up."

He called Rashford and was about to make a substitution.

Mourinho plans to use this to beat Martial, so that he must stabilize his emotions and play well when he is on the court in the future.

Soon, when the game time had just passed forty minutes, the substitution board was raised.

When Martial saw that it was Rashford standing on the sidelines, the loss in his heart was already very strong. He didn't even need to look at the substitution card, and walked directly to the off-court with his head down.

He gave a symbolic high-five to Rashford, walked back to the bench without hugging Mourinho.

This is an act of disrespect to the head coach, and it can be seen that he is a little dissatisfied.

"Martial, you have your own characteristics and advantages. Your passing is much better than Rashford, and your playing should be more reasonable."

Mourinho knew that Martial would be angry, and temporarily held back the anger of shaking his face, and said, "This is the reason why I put you in the starting lineup."

"But look at your performance today, have you played to your strengths? So you want to score goals?"

"Sometimes some redundant thoughts in people's minds will lead to changes in technical movements. You should think about it carefully. If this is still the case, then you may lose your starting position forever."

Martial sat on the bench, lowered his head and pulled his face, not knowing whether he listened or not.

On the court, Rashford started to run actively as soon as he came on the field.

It is a great honor to play in such an important Europa League knockout game and shoulder the heavy responsibility of one side of Manchester United's attack.

Now there are about five or ten minutes for him to play, so his mentality is naturally much more positive.

And to put it bluntly, Martial just played the background, and now Rashford does not have much pressure.

Just play normally and give full play to your own characteristics.

This idea also made Rashford's pressure a lot less, and he gradually became more comfortable on the court.

"boom!"

Game No. 407 minutes, the last minute of stoppage time in the first half.

Rashford received a diagonal long pass from his teammate on the left to clear the ball.

He unloaded the football with great skill and looked up.

Right now is the best time for Manchester United to switch offense and defense, and the opponent's central position is very open!

When the ball was passed just now, it meant that the opponent's press in the frontcourt failed.

Now they have only five defensive players in the backcourt.

After a simple judgment, Rashford made a decisive decision and cut inward with the ball towards the middle, attracting the opponent's defense.

A defensive midfielder immediately stuck over, defending Rashford's long-range shot.

"boom."

Rashford was not greedy, and after attracting the defense, he knocked the ball horizontally and handed it to Pogba.

"wind!"

After receiving the ball, Pogba looked in Lu Chenfeng's direction, yelled, and then rubbed the sole of his foot against the bottom of the football.

APOEL's defense immediately approached Lu Chenfeng's position, thinking that the ball was going to be passed to Lu Chenfeng.

They themselves were highly nervous about Lu Chenfeng's defense. Now that they saw Pogba's obvious passing intention, of course they moved closer together subconsciously.

But the outgoing football, with a strong inward rotation in the air, hit Ibrahimovic in front of him.

Sound East and West!

The routine that Manchester United have played before!

Now it is reproduced in the Europa League!

The frightened Greek Athletic defense line immediately chased after Ibrahimovic, but they did not know that they had lost their position in two hasty transfers!

The neutral position will also be exposed!

After Ibrahimovic received the football, he didn't stop the ball and knocked it horizontally.

"boom!!"

Lu Chenfeng, who was outflanking at the end, pushed and shot easily, and ate the pie into his stomach.

Two to one!

Scored twice to overtake the score!

"Yeahhhhhhhhh!!!"

The fans at the scene rioted again, and the whole stand suddenly became a sea of ​​red jubilation. Every Manchester United fan got out of the shadow of being scored not long ago.

After Rashford came on the field, the team obviously played better.

With this goal, it is a guarantee.

They believe that the team can score again in the next game to seal the victory of the game!

Lu Chenfeng stepped back while pointing at Ibrahimovic who just passed the ball to him, with a smile on his face.

This ball is the peak coordination strength of Manchester United's frontcourt offensive combination.

Through a very quick counterattack, they caught the opponent's loopholes in the transition and scored a wonderful teamwork goal!

This ball, let alone Atletico Greek, even Atlético Madrid, doesn't have many chances to defend it.

Everything is done to perfection!

"You boy won't want another hat-trick."

Ibrahimovic came to Lu Chenfeng's side, slapped his palms with Lu Chenfeng, and smiled.

Rashford, Pogba, and Rooney also rushed over quickly.

Although Rooney didn't deserve much credit for this ball, he still licked his face and said, "Thanks to my deterrent effect at the back, otherwise you wouldn't have such a chance."

"Who is the real thigh, does everyone know?"

Hearing Rooney's joke, everyone laughed out loud, feeling very happy.

In the commentary seat on the sidelines, He Wei covered his earphones, tried his best to minimize the sound of external celebrations, and began to explain.

"Beautiful teamwork, that's Jose Mourinho's football."

"By passing the ball quickly in transition, playing fast breaks that make it difficult for the opponent to react, and scoring goals."

"It must be the fruit of their sweat in training on weekdays."

"Of course, I have to praise Pogba's imagination and Lu Chenfeng's deterrence to opponents just by standing there."

"Two to one, United outscored again before the end of the first half."

"In the second half, as long as they continue to play steadily and don't make too many mistakes, then this night belongs to Manchester."

"..."

Mourinho on the sidelines is also celebrating with the assistant coaches at the moment, and he didn't expect the substitution to be effective so quickly.

Rashford's choice of this ball is also one of the key points of the goal.

He very cleverly brought the ball to the middle, attracted the defense of the opponent's midfielder, and gave Pogba a chance to pass the ball unmarked!

"Fantastic young man."
