Chapter 703 Power MAX!
Today, facing Leicester City, which is in excellent form, Pogba was silent.
He basically did not take on the responsibility of the core of the organization in the frontcourt, missed many opportunities, and his own wasteful shooting also consumed too many opportunities.
Now Solskjaer let Xia Xing go up and Pogba come back, hoping to change this situation.
And soon, his adjustment has paid off.
Manchester United's equalizing goal just now was Xia Xing's wonderful organization pass, which helped Ashley Young to defeat the enemy with one blow.
Now, Xia Xing is in a forward position and he has more opportunities to threaten his opponents.
Especially facing his old club, Xia Xing has more experience.
After adjusting the positions of the two, Solskjaer soon regretted it.
What he regretted was-why didn't adjust it earlier!
After Xia Xing pressed to the frontcourt, he posed a huge threat to Leicester City!
He dribbled the ball many times alone and got rid of the double-teaming of two or three players around him!
Whether it was the final shot or the pass, it was all very threatening.
It was because of this offensive suppression that Leicester City's midfield line quickly retreated and dared not press forward again.
Because of this, Leicester City also had more breathing space.
Attack against attack, even if Xia Xing was not in a defensive position, he helped the team defend to the maximum extent.
The performance was quite outstanding.
In conjunction with Lingard, who had just come on as a substitute, he was physically fit and had excellent running ability. He was a very good wingman for Xia Xing and assisted Xia Xing in attacking.
There was also Rashford on the front line. He had almost no decent cooperation with Pogba just now, but after Xia Xing moved forward, he gave him a lot of space.
After receiving the ball twice in a row, he ran out of the gap and shot very well. If it weren't for Schmeichel's world-class performance, I'm afraid Leicester City would have been equalized long ago.
However, the goal came soon.
In the 78th minute of the game, Xia Xing pulled to the side on the left and shook off the defense.
It seemed that he was going to continue to break through along the left side.
But unexpectedly, after Xia Xing attracted the defense, he directly chose a long pass!
The ball flew from the left side to the right side of the penalty area!
Lingard quickly moved forward, raised his right foot high, and took the ball!
The ball bounced slightly and shot with his left foot!
The shooting angle was not so accurate, but the distance was close and the power was strong!
Schmeichel was unable to make a great save this time!
The ball hit the net!
"2 to 2!"
"Manchester United finally equalized the score!
"This shot is so wonderful!
"The power of the shot was so great that Schmeichel was powerless!
"It was wonderful!
"Solskjaer's adjustment this time was very critical!
"Xia's position was more forward, which posed a greater threat to Leicester City.
"It not only helped the defensive players to reduce the pressure,
"It also gave the forward teammates more space.
"Just now he pretended to break through with the ball on the wing,
"It attracted the position of three defensive players to move at once,
"This created an excellent opportunity for Lingard,
"Manchester United equalized the score,
"They still have hope of winning this game! ”
There is indeed hope, no problem at all.
Then, the game came to Manchester United time.
There were more than ten minutes left before the end of the game, and Manchester United attacked with all their might. During this period, Leicester City's physical fitness declined significantly, and they were in a slump.
Lingard and Rashford were very active, cooperating with Xia Xing to rush left and right in the frontcourt, with great momentum.
Coupled with Xia Xing's comprehensive sweep behind him, the team was even more unstoppable.
Schmeichel's consecutive saves were all world-class performances.
Otherwise, Manchester United would have taken the lead long ago.
Until the 89th minute of the game, Manchester United got another good opportunity.
This time it was Xia Xing who passed the ball on the left side. He quickly pulled horizontally and suddenly accelerated along the middle!
One change completely disrupted the rhythm of Leicester City!
Two The defensive midfielders Ndidi and Mendy were all passed!
The central defender Evans rushed up quickly and knocked Xia Xing down sideways!
The referee whistled, foul!
There is no doubt about this foul!
Yellow card!
Evans did not quibble, he knew very well what consequences his actions would bring.
But there was no way, he could not let Xia Xing rush over.
He had already broken through the midfield line. If he took a few more steps forward, he could shoot directly.
Xia Xing's shooting power was much stronger than Lingard's just-shot.
Although it was a tactical foul, it was not malicious.
Evans reached out and pulled up Xia Xing on the ground, and patted Xia Xing's shoulder in a friendly manner.
As a player who came out of Manchester United's youth training camp, Evans still likes this Manchester United genius junior very much.
"Are you okay?"
"I'm fine, your defense is crucial."
"No way, who made you so fierce. ”
This position is about 30 meters away from the goal, slightly to the left.
It is a big threat.
If possible, Evans does not want to give Manchester United a free kick at this position.
He got instructions from the head coach before the game.
You know, Xia Xing's free kick goal rate is among the top three in Europe.
And most of the goals he scored are important equalizers or overtaking goals, and they often appear in important knockout matches and finals.
It is quite terrifying!
But this time there is no way, Xia Xing must be knocked down, otherwise it will be more dangerous.
At this time, Xia Xing stood in front of the ball, without any supporting teammates around him.
After all, everyone knew that Xia Xing would definitely handle the ball, so there was no need to do such meaningless cover.
The teammates were all in the penalty area, and the running looked chaotic, but in fact it was orderly.
Pulling the opponent's defensive formation.
Goalkeeper Schmeichel kept a close eye on the offensive players in front of him, but he was very sure in his heart.
Xia Xing would definitely choose to take a shot himself!
Absolutely!
Perhaps among all the teammates he had worked with, Schmeichel was the goalkeeper who knew Xia Xing best.
No one else.
Even later in Manchester United, Xia Xing's free kick level was already perfect.
When he was in Leicester City, Xia Xing would pull Schmeichel to practice with him from time to time.
He watched Xia Xing try various free kicks little by little, and watched him become a free kick master in three years.
So Schmeichel knew very well that letting Xia Xing take the penalty himself would definitely be more threatening than passing the ball.
He stood still and prepared to move to save the ball.
Standing in front of the ball, Xia Xing slowly retreated.
He looked at the time card, it was already 89 minutes.
Two minutes of extra time.
This ball is crucial.
Manchester United's form has improved during this period, and there is a good chance to return to the top four at the end of the season.
Every game and every point is very important.
Whether this goal can be a lore depends on this moment!
The referee whistled, and Xia Xing slowly retreated.
Looking at his teammates running in the penalty area and Schmeichel with a firm gaze, he also had a firm look in his eyes.
Run-up, one step, two steps, three steps...
Kick, volley!
This shot did not choose an angle, but was full of force!
Power MAX!
The ball went into the net! (End of this chapter)
