Chapter 1041: The Tenacious Spurs

Before this game, Golden Tiger had anticipated Tottenham's counterattack. He believed that Pochettino was definitely not the kind of person who would give in casually, and Tottenham would definitely take this game seriously.

But Jin Taige did not expect that in the first ten minutes of the game, Tottenham actually completely controlled the situation of the game.

From the first minute of the opening, Tottenham tried their best to attack Manchester United's half.

Although they just finished a Europa League game in midweek, Tottenham's main players are still not tired at all. The offensive combination composed of captain Harry Kane, Eriksen and Son Heung-min set off a wave of Another wave of offensive.

Next to them, Lucas Moura, a new player who just arrived at Tottenham during the winter transfer period, also performed very well. He came to Tottenham from Paris in January, costing Tottenham a transfer fee of 28.4 million euros. Since he came to Tottenham, he has quickly integrated into Tottenham's tactical play and has become a regular rotation player in the front three. In the past Europa League game, he scored twice to help Tottenham. Thorns successfully advanced to the quarterfinals.

Today, in order to strengthen the team's offensive power, Pochettino deliberately let Lucas start the game. He and Son Heung-min are separated on the left and right, and they are the team's wingers, while Kane and Eriksen in the center are Tottenham Hotspur's wingers. central axis core.

As soon as the game started, Son Heung-min created a murderous opportunity through a breakthrough from the wing and a pass from the bottom.

"Tottenham passed the ball in the midfield, and Manchester United players pressed forward. Eriksen suddenly made a pass and found Son Heung-min who was advancing at high speed!"

"Son Heung-min passed Kroos and he suddenly cut inside under Alonso's defense!"

"Koulibaly stepped forward and Alonso also made up for it in time!"

"Son Heung-min suddenly changed direction and rushed to the wing again! Manchester United's wing defense is empty!"

"Koulibaly and Alonso didn't expect Son Heung-min to be so agile!"

"Son Heung-min brought the ball near the baseline, passed the ball to the center of the penalty area, and directly found Harry Kane!"

"Van Dijk blocked his position with his body! He took the lead in pushing the ball out of the penalty area!"

"This Tottenham attack is so threatening! It really makes Manchester United fans break out in a cold sweat!"

Seeing Tottenham's attack, Jin Taige on the sidelines let out a sigh of relief: "It's really dangerous."

Scholes was also very worried: "It seems like today's game is not going to be easy..."

Tottenham's wave of attacks had just ended, and soon another wave of attacks came.

This time it was their new winter aid Lucas, who also staged a solo breakthrough. Although he did not break through Kimmich's defense this time, he still found an opportunity and passed the ball. But this time he did not pass the ball into the penalty area, but knocked the ball to the top of the penalty area.

"Lucas's forward drive was very sharp! Kimmich blocked the angle of his cross!"

"Lucas knocked the ball back to the penalty area, and Eriksen fired an angry shot! The ball was so powerful that it hit the dead corner!"

"De Gea made a great save! He blocked the ball with his fingertips! Manchester United escaped again!"

After Tottenham's successive attacks, Manchester United's striker became more active.

"Mbappe pushed the ball down the wing and he was in good shape today."

"He wanted to cut inside on the right side of the penalty area, but he was blocked by the defensive player and had no forward angle."

"Mbappe passed the ball forward into the penalty area. Griezmann reluctantly took off his foot and failed to use his strength. The ball was confiscated by Lori."

"Manchester United's attack is back!"

"This time it was Salah's breakthrough from the left. He passed two defensive players in a row and volleyed into the far corner! The ball missed the goal post and missed the goal. What a pity!"

“Tottenham’s four defenders today are Danny Rose, Vertonghen, Alderweireld and Trippier.

These four players have formed Tottenham's steel defense this season. Their performance today was also very good, and they did not allow Manchester United's offensive players to get too good opportunities. "

"During the opening period, Manchester United and Tottenham were attacking and defending each other. Both teams are bound to win this game!" Morris looked at the situation on the field and asked Raman next to him, "Man, what are you doing? What do you think of the outcome of this game?"

Raman thought for a while: "Based on the comparison of the strength of the two teams, Manchester United is definitely stronger than Tottenham; but looking at the state of the two teams today, Manchester United and Tottenham are both in good condition. I think Tottenham are in good shape in this game. It’s unlikely to win, but it’s not easy for Manchester United to win.”

"You mean, is this game going to be a draw?"

"Probably."

At this time, in front of the visiting team's coaching bench, Pochettino has been nervously standing on the sidelines directing the game.

Now 20 minutes have passed since the game, and the score between the two sides is still 0-0. Although both teams made several extremely threatening attacks, both sides defended well and the goals could be resolved one by one.

Pochettino secretly stabilized his emotions, thinking to himself: If this game can end in a draw, it would not be bad. After all, Manchester United is stronger than Tottenham, and it is still on the road, so a draw is not a shame. Besides, as long as Manchester United is not allowed to win, then their early championship will have to continue to the next round of the league, and then Tottenham will no longer be the backdrop.

Pochettino continued to watch the situation on the field carefully with a sense of luck.

In the home coaching bench, Jin Taige sat calmly.

"Actually, Tottenham shouldn't fight so hard in this game," Jintege said calmly. "After all, they have just experienced a double match in a week, and the main players are exhausted. They should rotate the lineup appropriately in this game. And they are not in the league. It’s a big crisis. After all, the top four positions in the league are almost certain. No game like this is too serious. If a player gets injured, it will be more of a loss than the gain.”

Ferran nodded: "Yes, we rotated the main lineup in the last game, so our main players will definitely be stronger than them in this game."

Scholes frowned and said: "But looking at Tottenham's performance, they really fought hard in this game and performed very tenaciously."

Jin Taige smiled coldly: "Don't worry, they are just at the end of their game now. By the second half, Tottenham's main players will definitely be exhausted, and at that moment, it will be time for them to collapse."

After saying this, Kim Tiger looked at the Tottenham players on the field. Son Heung-min had just completed another wonderful breakthrough and pass. Kane's shot was blocked by Koulibaly. From the current point of view, Tottenham players are not tired yet, but don't worry, the second half will be the most important 45 minutes that will determine the outcome of the game!
