Chapter 0146 Retreat

Simeone was helpless. He had achieved the ultimate he could do. Whether it was defending Manchester United's overall offense or targeted defense against several Manchester United's forward players, he had already done his best.

But unexpectedly, Rooney scored a goal.

Just one chance, just one chance!

The Argentine madman wanted to curse, but he couldn't curse because he didn't know who to scold.

Cork?

Yes, if he hadn't stuck the ball, he wouldn't have been stabbed by De Bruyne, and there wouldn't have been the goal that came later. But could he scold him?

Cork has always performed well in this game tonight, and the young player has made considerable contributions on both offense and defense.

Moreover, when the goal was scored, there were so many people near the front of Atletico Madrid's penalty area, but for various reasons, no one could stop Rooney and give him a chance to shoot.

That time, he caught it and broke the door!

This is the role of superstars. At critical moments, they can make the final decision!

……………………

Manchester United finally took a draw away from Calderon Stadium. Even though Atletico Madrid tried to play a strong attack on Manchester United in the final stage, it was no longer helpful.

The Red Devils retreated from Calderon Stadium and took the lead in the knockout round in two rounds, which made Simeone very dissatisfied after the game and pointed the finger at the referee again.

The head coach of Atletico Madrid believes that the referee missed a penalty kick to Atletico Madrid, which could obviously help Atletico Madrid expand the score and even make Manchester United completely desperate, but was destroyed by the referee.

Ye Su did not ignore Simeone's words this time and refuted it on the spot. He said that Simeone's reason was very ridiculous, because the foul by Manchester United defensive player at that time was clearly on the outside of the penalty area, so it was reasonable to give a free kick.

"I don't understand why he wanted to ask for a penalty kick that didn't exist at all?" Ye Su pretended to be incomprehensible and said to the reporter.

The two head coaches fought on the court, but they still fought on the court.

Simeone said he believes the draw is unreasonable and Atletico Madrid should win at its home court.

Ye Suze believes that Manchester United is better than Atletico Madrid in terms of ball possession and shooting. Manchester United should win, but unfortunately, Atletico Madrid has better luck and scored the first goal.

But in fact, Manchester United's advantage in this game is not too obvious. Although their possession rate is as high as 70%, neither side's shots are too many. Atletico Madrid is indeed pitifully few. Manchester United's shots seem to be twice as many as the opponent, but in fact they are not much better.

It can also be seen from the number of shots that the two teams have really achieved the ultimate goal in targeted tactics. They both restrain each other and have not given each other too good opportunities.

Atletico Madrid only had two shots directly on goal, and Manchester United only had three. This is because it was difficult for Manchester United to break through Atletico Madrid's steel defense line and had to use more long shots.

And the effect of long shots is really hard to describe.

……………………

Simeone mentioned Torres, believing that Golden Boy played a key role. Ye Su mentioned Rooney, believing that Lu Xiaopang was the key to Manchester United's promotion. He said: "From Vinn's eyes, I saw determination, fighting spirit, and his pursuit and desire for a peak championship."

Ye Su also said that the team will defeat Atletico Madrid and win a victory after returning to the Dream Theatre.

"I have no doubt about Atletico Madrid's strength, and I do not deny that the Blues do have strong enough strength to compete for the finals, but I want to say that at Old Trafford, victory will only belong to our Manchester United!"

"This season, we have defeated all the invading enemies in this stadium. Whether it is Juventus or Bayern, we all returned in old Trafford. It is Atletico Madrid's turn next."

Compared to Ye Su's ambitiousness, Simeone also did not admit defeat at all. He swore to the media: "We will be more proactive and enterprising at Old Trafford Stadium. We will do our best to win a away game. In the end, we must be the one who gets the ticket to Meacha Stadium!"

This year's Champions League final will be held at 2:45 am on May 29, Beijing time at the Meazza Stadium in Milan, Italy. Simeone's words show their determination to defeat Manchester United in the second leg.

……………………

However, although the coaches of both sides expressed their belief that they would win in the second round, the game would still have to wait until next week. Before that, both sides still have games to play.

Three days after playing Atletico Madrid, Manchester United ushered in the 36th round of the Premier League, heading to Old Trafford Stadium, facing the Blue Fox Leicester City, currently ranked second in the Premier League standings.

Although it is a veritable top-ranking battle, the importance of this game is not as important as expected. On the one hand, it is because Manchester United has won the Premier League early, and on the other hand, Leicester City is currently in the second place in the standings.

In the 35 rounds of the Premier League that have been completed, Leicester City has scored 22 wins, 9 draws and 4 losses, with a score of up to 75 points.

Tottenham, the third-largest league team, had a record of 18 wins, 13 draws and 4 losses in the first 35 rounds of the Premier League, and only scored 67 points, 8 points behind Leicester City.

The possibility that Tottenham wants to overtake Leicester City in the next three league rounds is basically negligible.

However, as the two teams ranked first in the standings, it is worth paying attention to when they fight.

……………………

Since he just played away with Atletico Madrid and was about to usher in the second leg of the Champions League semi-finals with Atletico Madrid in 50 hours after the end of this game, Ye Su did not hesitate to rotate the game in full.

But as a result, in the 27th minute of the first half, goalkeeper Romero, who appeared as a substitute De Gea, made a mistake in attacking, and Leicester City player scored a goal, and Manchester United conceded a goal.

The strength of this Manchester United rotation team is very strong. They have played in many Premier League games this season. Even when facing Leicester City, which is second in the Premier League standings, they are not afraid at all. After losing one goal, they launched a counterattack.

But sometimes on the football field, what happened is always so unexpected. Just five minutes later, Leicester City launched a long pass counterattack again, and Manchester United lost the goal again and lost two goals in a row.

But during the halftime break, Ye Su was not in a hurry to make adjustments, and the tactics in the second half remained unchanged.

Anyway, the Premier League has won the championship, so it doesn’t make much sense to play the game. Instead, we can take this opportunity to hit these players, which is also a training for them.

In the 59th minute, Manchester United scored a goal and took advantage of a corner kick opportunity. Mata's cross found Harry Kane, who then headed the ball.

Manchester United, which won a goal, has become more and more fierce in the offensive.

Three minutes later, Harry Kane followed Rashford on the left, Ashley Young and Mata completed a wonderful continuous wall-to-wall cooperation. Mata made a precise pass and sent the ball behind Leicester City's defense line. Rashford rushed into the penalty area and easily pushed the ball.

This is the 11th Premier League goal this season scored by Manchester United youngster!

……………………

This goal also completely sounded the horn of Manchester United's offense. Then, the left side of Rashford completely became the main channel for Manchester United's offense. Rashford frequently created threats on this side and planned an attack. In the 76th minute, he even passed three opponents in a row and entered the left side of the penalty area. When he directly shot, he was quickly inserted from the back of the side by the opponent's right defender Fox, and blocked the shot with his body.

With the substitution adjustment of Leicester City, Blue Fox coach Ranieri, known as the pot-making machine, also quickly strengthened his defense on the right, which once again curbed Manchester United's left offense.

However, with the Blue Fox midfielder, former Manchester United youth training player Drinking Water received the second yellow card of the game in the 86th minute. After being sent off, the Blue Foxes could no longer compete with Manchester United.

Three minutes later, the second minute to the regular time of the game, Rashford dribbled the ball from the left and passed it straight behind. Martial, who came on the bench, inserted and calmly pushed the ball to hit.

3:2, Manchester United reversed Leicester City at Dream Theater!

The victory put Manchester United's league points to 91 points, only 2 points away from their new Premier League points record set last season.

For Manchester United, it is a high probability that it will create a new league point record this season.

However, it is impossible for Manchester United to break the five major league points record of 102 points in a single season set by Juventus. Because even if they win the remaining three league games, their points will be only 100 points.

After the game, the British media discussed the most that was not Manchester United won, nor was it that Manchester United could create a new Premier League single-season point record, but that young player Rashford scored another goal.

This young player in the Red Devils youth training, who won his 19th birthday at the end of October this year, has been very impressive since Manchester United started at Old Trafford in the 28th round of the Premier League this season, and has been very proud of his performance. He has made 7 appearances in the Premier League, but has scored 11 league goals. His efficiency has made those famous stars feel ashamed.

Rashford's super performance has attracted the attention of the whole world. This young man from Manchester has become a world-renowned superstar.

Although it is only May, many media have asserted that this year's European Golden Boy Award may have lost its suspense.

Everyone is envious and jealous of Manchester United and Ye Su, because in Manchester United, not only are the elderly stronger and stronger, but the Middle Ages perform well, but newcomers are emerging one after another. This is simply not a way out!
