The Greatest Performer on the Football Field

April 19th.

Stanford Stadium.

There were boos in the stands, which were meant for the Chelsea players on the field, for the interim head coach Hiddink who took the blame, and even more for the club owner Roman Abramovich.

The fans are grieving for the Magic Bird.

Mourinho claimed to have been betrayed after leaving office... Well, this is the second time he has been betrayed here.

Goooooooooooooooooooooooooooal!

Manchester United widened the score gap again, 3-1, 3-1. Guardiola must be very disappointed!

Mortensen shouted: Pochettino has an enviable hand. Schneiderlin, Fletcher, and Herrera are all suspended, but he also has Lingard!

Lingard, who was dancing awkwardly in front of the camera, was all smiles. Before the first half was over, he had already scored twice.

But in fact, Pochettino can only choose Lingard for this game, and there is no one available on the bench.

Sun Wu and Pochettino have the same understanding of this game. It is difficult to defend. Although Hazard is injured, Cavani is in good form this season. The Uruguayan striker has currently scored 18 league goals. Overtaking Griezmann to rank second on the scorer list.

Therefore, offense is the main theme of this game.

In the 18th minute of the first half, Manchester United opened the door to victory. Sun Wu's attempt to pass through Lukaku was destroyed, but the ball unexpectedly appeared in the penalty area on the other side. Lingard, who had no time to slow down, came in from the back and volleyed. Break the door.

In the 22nd minute, Sun Wu and Lukaku shot two consecutive shots from the penalty area line and were blocked. Griezmann sent a pass. The right back Valencia appeared in the small penalty area and hit the far corner from a small angle.

In the 35th minute, Matic stole the ball in the frontcourt, Cesc Fabregas sent a precise pass, and Cavani volleyed from behind to regain the victory.

But in the 42nd minute, Sun Wu's clever movement opened up Matic. Lingard drove straight from the center during the counterattack. After hitting the wall with Lukaku, he scored with a diagonal shot from the right side of the penalty area.

Sun Wu turned around and gave Pochettino a thumbs up. He had to admit that the head coach's use of Lingard was very reasonable and very suitable for Lingard's technical characteristics.

Lingard does not have as much defensive coverage as Fletcher.

The timing of the back row insertion is not accurate enough, and his organizational skills on the court before and after the connection are also lacking, but he also has his own advantages.

Very, very active running between the midfield and the front. Lingard is running almost every moment. Although the choice of running route may not be reasonable, as long as he runs, Chelsea players have to pay attention to him.

In a word, Lingard is a typical hard-working player, just like Park Ji-sung in previous years. A mature team always needs this kind of blue-collar player who does not hesitate to use physical strength.

In the second half, Pochettino did not make any adjustments to the midfield, but replaced Lukaku with Rashford, and successively brought Shaqiri and Januzaj on as substitutes.

In the 68th minute, Cahill missed a corner kick and scored again to close the score.

But in the 70th minute, Manchester United secured the victory through a counterattack.

Lingard was watched by Matic, but Januzaj successfully counterattacked and passed the ball. Shaqiri broke through from the right and cut in and passed the ball. Sun Wu curled the ball with his right foot from outside the penalty area into the far corner.

Chelsea is really miserable. Hiddink has made a lot of changes in tactics, but the record is still not improving. Arsenal and Tottenham have already caught up. This season's battle for the fourth place will be extremely fierce.

4-2, Manchester United easily defeated Chelsea and continued to lead the standings with a 6-point advantage. Because Manchester City's game was postponed again, Guardiola met Klopp in the FA Cup semi-finals.

That afternoon, in the FA Cup semi-finals, Arsenal defeated Reading 1-0 and took the lead in reaching the final.

On April 20, Manchester City and Liverpool were still 0-0 after 120 minutes of play. In the final penalty shootout, Fernandinho and Aguero missed penalty kicks. Liverpool will meet Arsenal in the final.

On April 21, the entire Manchester United team flew to Monaco to prepare for the second leg of the Champions League quarter-finals.

The 7-0 score has guaranteed promotion, but Pochettino still brought most of the main players.

That night, good news came from Sun Fei. She successfully signed Fabinho, which meant that Manchester United had a high chance of acquiring this outstanding defensive midfielder in the summer.

On April 22, the other two Champions League games will be played first.

Barcelona beat Chelsea twice to advance to the semi-finals without any suspense. The Blues are almost collapsed, especially in the backcourt... In Sun Wu's words, except for Azpilicueta, all other defenders should be purged.

Another game surprised Sun Wu. Although Diego Costa scored the first goal to equalize the away goal, Coutinho, who returned from injury later, equalized the total score with the 89th in the second half. In the minute, Di Maria made a ground ball from the wing, and Lallana scored from a zero-angle tackle from the far point.

Liverpool knocked out defending champion Atletico Madrid with a total score of 3-2.

Manchester City led by Guardiola is gradually taking shape, and Klopp is not to be outdone. Although Salah and Mane are missing, the combination of Di Maria, Gotze, and Shinji Kagawa is not much weaker.

It would be great if we played Liverpool in the semifinals. Lingard, Sun Wu's roommate on this away trip, suddenly said: It's relatively familiar, and the strength is relatively weak.

Sun Wu shook his head, I don't think so.

Are Bayern and Barcelona better to play against?

There are too many surprises that may occur in the Double Red Club. Sun Wu explained in detail: Even if we can advance, there is no telling who may get a red card. I don't want to see the final without Griezmann or Schnee. Delin.”

It doesn't matter without me?

You are the only one who talks a lot! Sun Wuxu kicked his foot over, Go to bed early, you will be the starter tomorrow.

In the second day's game, although Sun Wu opened the scoring, Lingard once again stole the spotlight.

In the 20th minute, Lingard staggered and fell in the penalty area. Although the referee did not award a penalty kick, Sun Wu, who had quick eyes and quick feet, stretched his foot first and poked the ball into the door with his toes.

In the 42nd minute, Klose passed the ball back from the front. Sun Wu sent a pick pass. Lingard, who came in from the back row, headed the ball away with his head before Subasic, and then easily sent it into the empty goal.

In the 51st minute, Lingard faced Tulalang's defense outside the penalty area, swung away like a super winger, and scored with a world-beating curve ball with his right foot.

Sun Wu, who was already sitting on the bench, exclaimed that Lingard is quite amazing. He is obviously a blue-collar guy, but he can always make waves in the world.

He is a very useful addition to the midfield and can bring tactical changes. Mike Phelan whispered to Sun Wu. He was really afraid that Sun Wu would drive away these red guys one by one.

It's a bit like Kaká, but a weakened version...well, the version without the ball. Sun Wu nodded in agreement. The interspersed movement is very active. He is a stronger direct threat to the goal than Herrera.

Well, the organizational skills are just a bit weak.

And his frontal defensive ability is not strong. After all, he used to play No. 10 in the youth team. Sun Wu opened the notebook on Mike Phelan's knee and drew a sketch. He can also play as a right winger next season. What do you think?

Like Thomas?

Well, they are similar in terms of movement, and Lingard has a certain speed.

Pochettino, who was sitting on the other side of the coaching bench, glanced here. Now the coaching staff knew everything they should know. It seemed that Mike Phelan was a supporter of Sun Wu and they had already started looking for Thomas Muller's successor. or.
