Chapter 131, Accident
After the premiere ceremony of the movie "Class of 92", six members of Class 92 headed by Beckham all received congratulatory text messages. In the text message, Jin Taige congratulated the successful release of the film.
And Scholes and Giggs received one more text message.
"Paul, Ryan, I have already taken a taxi back to Manchester. You don't need to rush back today. I will give you two a day off tomorrow. Let's have a good gathering with old friends tonight and take my share."
In the deep night, Kim Taege sat in the taxi back to Manchester, and he fell asleep in a daze. In the dream, the soul of this body seems to become Tiger King again, dreaming back to 20 years ago, dreaming back to those youthful dreams...
Movies are movies, and life is life. Although the movie is over, life has to go on.
In the last Premier League game, Manchester United defeated Tottenham 2-0 away. At present, they have won three consecutive league victories and four consecutive victories on all fronts. There will be two more Premier League games next, although it is another week Double matches, but these two games are simply home games, which at least reduces fatigue.
In the fourteenth round of the Premier League on December 4, Manchester United played against Everton at home.
The Everton soldiers came to Manchester one day in advance to adapt to the venue early and prepare for the next day's game.
At the pre-match press conference, Kintiger said that Manchester United will definitely show a good state in this game and strive to continue their winning streak.
On the other side, Moyes was much more cautious. He said very modestly that Manchester United is a strong team and has been in excellent form recently. If he can take away a point at Old Trafford, that would be great. up.
In this game, the mentality of the head coaches of the two teams is completely different. One side is full of ambition, and the other side is low-key and cautious.
Due to the continuous combat during this period, Kintag carried out a large-scale rotation of the team. Familiar 4-4-2 formation: Alisson is the goalkeeper; Jones and Van Dijk are paired with central defenders in the defense, Alonso and Valencia are on the left and right; Kanter and Fletcher are in the midfield, Shili Yang and Shinji Kagawa are on the left and right; the striker is a combination of Rooney and Icardi. The seven substitute players are: De Gea, Evra, Vidic, Mahrez, Nani, Carrick and Van Persie.
Kintag is full of ambitions. He feels that he can rely on this bench lineup to beat Everton.
And Moyes sent a defensive formation in this game, and he was really preparing to defend and counterattack at Old Trafford. In this game, Everton adopted a 4-3-2-1 formation, leaving only three offensive players in the frontcourt.
Although there are not many offensive players, these three are very familiar to Jin Taige, and all three of them are players on loan.
The center position is the little monster Lukaku. He is a fierce player who Moyes loaned from Chelsea this summer. So far, Lukaku has scored 7 goals and is very efficient.
The two central midfielders are Cleverley and Januzaj, who Moyes loaned from Manchester United.
Although Jin Taige has sent a substitute lineup for this game, he believes that his substitute lineup is strong enough, at least it should not be a problem to deal with Everton.
But Jin Taige was wrong...
In the 12th minute of the game, Everton won a corner kick in the front court. The corner kick was taken by Yanuzaj. His pass accurately found Lukaku in the center of the penalty area. Overwhelmed Phil Jones and scored a powerful header.
Everton leads Manchester United 1-0!
Although he conceded a goal, Kintag didn't panic, because the conceded goal was too unexpected. Everton didn't play any decent cooperation, but it was lucky to lead through a corner kick.
But Manchester United spent a full 45 minutes and did not change the score.
During intermission,
Jin Taige encouraged the players: "The goal lost at the beginning was purely accidental. Don't take it too seriously. In the second half, continue to play according to the tactical arrangement. The victory must belong to us!"
But in the second half, Manchester United's offense still did not improve. Instead, Everton relied on counterattacks and caused several threats to Manchester United's stadium.
Everton's front three attacking players performed very well.
Everton's young striker Lukaku scored a total of 15 goals this season when he was in later generations, and finally tied for ninth in the Premier League scorer list. In view of such excellent performance, in the summer of 2014, Everton officially bought out Lukaku on loan at a transfer fee of 35 million euros; in the summer of 2017, Mourinho spent another 84 million euros The big price brought Lukaku to Manchester United.
Today Lukaku not only scored a goal to help Everton take the lead, but he also inserted himself into Manchester United's penalty area like a nail, making Manchester United's defense very uncomfortable.
The other two Everton offensive players also performed very well, Cleverley and Januzaj are both on loan from Manchester United. During this period of time, Kintag will take the time to pay attention to the performance of his loan players, while Cleverley and Januzaj have performed well recently. Both of them have become very important players in Everton. High hopes, starting almost every game.
Today's game against Manchester United, the two are full of energy. They all know that if they can perform well in front of Kintag in this game, then their hopes of returning to Manchester United will be a little higher.
So don't look at Everton's defensive counterattack in this game, but they rely on the cooperation and counterattack of the three people in the frontcourt. It posed a great threat to Manchester United's defense.
As time went by, Jin Taige became more and more anxious. Seeing that his team was unable to attack for a long time, he continuously dispatched troops and generals. He wanted to let the main players rest for this game, but there was no other way. He replaced Icardi with the experienced Van Persie, and replaced On the left and right, Ashley Young and Shinji Kagawa replaced Mahrez and Nani, allowing the three main players to attack with all their strength, and must break through Everton's goal to equalize and overtake the score.
Although three main players were replaced, Manchester United's offense still did not improve. On the one hand, Everton, under the guidance of Moyes, has a very solid defensive system and a steady style of play; on the other hand, after continuous battles, Kintag's team is exhausted, both physically and mentally, are at the lowest point of a state . Moreover, the overall strength of the substitute players is much worse than that of the starting players. They did not show convincing strength in front of Everton. Faced with this situation, Jin Taige was helpless, he knew that his chances of winning this match were slim...
Neither side scored any more goals in this game. The final score was 0 to 1. Manchester United unexpectedly lost to Everton at home, ending a four-game winning streak.
