Chapter 163, The State Is Very Bad Recently

Perhaps because of the 3-0 lead in the first half, Manchester United was a little slack in the second half. Swansea got several good chances in a row, especially Swansea's head striker Michu, who has scored twice in a row. If It's not that De Gea performed well, Manchester United may not be able to maintain this score.

Jin Taige faintly felt something was wrong.

Sure enough, after a few minutes, back to defense Rooney made a mistake...

"Rooney pulled down Swansea striker Michu in the penalty area! The referee pointed to the penalty spot! And showed Rooney a yellow card!"

"Let's look at the return of the game. It was a Swansea corner just now. Michu jumped up to fight for the header, but Rooney elbowed him hard from behind! It's cheap!"

"Michu did it in one go! Swansea got it back!"

Jin Taige, who was off the field, shook his head, and he turned and sat back on the coach's bench beside the field, silent.

Phelan said with relief: "Tiger, even if they score one goal, we still lead by two goals. There should be no problem in this game."

Jin Taige frowned: "I'm not worried about this matter. Have you noticed that Rooney has been in a very bad state recently?"

Scholes thought for a while: "Indeed, Rooney has not scored in four or five consecutive games, and he has been in a sluggish state during training during this period of time. Hot hands, Rooney is indeed a bit abnormal recently."

Kintag pointed to the field: "When defending the corner just now, Rooney's action was a malicious foul. Vidic was already stuck in the previous point. There is no need for him to do that. He gave the opponent a penalty for nothing. .”

"Captain, after you get down, you really need to have a good talk with Rooney."

"Well, I always feel that there is something on his mind."

In the 62nd minute of the game, Rooney dribbled the ball in the frontcourt. Swansea midfielder Bred Carter pulled Rooney down behind him. The referee gave Manchester United a free kick in the frontcourt. Bridcarter reached out to pull Rooney up, but he didn't expect Rooney to shake off Bridcarter's hand and almost knocked Bridcarter down.

Bridcarter was a little dissatisfied. He stepped forward to question Rooney, and Rooney was also very upset. The two began to quarrel. At this time, Kanter hurriedly pulled Rooney aside, and he reminded him: "Wayne, you now If you have a yellow card, you will be sent off if you receive another card, so don’t be impulsive.”

Rooney became angry when he heard this sentence. He pointed to Kanter and asked loudly: "What do you mean? Are you laughing at me for getting a red card in the last game!"

"I didn't mean that..." Kanter looked confused.

At this time, in the studio of Sky TV, Raman gloated and said: "Look at the situation on the court. Rooney continued his good form. He was sent off in the last game and got a yellow card for a foul at the beginning of the second half. Just now There was a verbal conflict with Brid Carter again, but now it’s good, I actually quarreled with teammate Kanter, I really can’t understand this Manchester United team.”

At this time, Vidic ran over from the backcourt, pulling away Kanter and Rooney, and the conflict on the field was resolved.

The players on the Swansea field also talked a lot, expressing their incomprehension of Rooney's behavior.

Seeing that Rooney was not only in a bad state, but also had conflicts with his teammates, Kintag frowned off the court.

Phelan muttered: "Rooney was sent off in the last game, and the hearing will be held tomorrow. If Rooney is sent off again today, it will be really troublesome."

Hearing this, Jin Taige shivered.

This is really the case!

In case Rooney is sent off again today, the hearing tomorrow will definitely be quite unfavorable.

Kintag has made up his mind and can no longer let Rooney stay on the field. He is like a time bomb now, and he doesn't know when it will explode.

Kintag decisively made a counterpoint substitution adjustment. He replaced Rooney and replaced Icardi.

But what Kintag did not expect was that,

When Rooney left the field, he didn't look at him at all, but walked straight off the field, sat on the bench, leaned on a chair, and looked dissatisfied.

Jin Taige was a little unhappy.

Rooney, no matter how bad you are today, you have to be polite to me!

Jin Taige has no time to talk to Rooney now, he thought that he must have a good talk with Rooney tomorrow. He looked at the players on the field and felt a little worried.

Not only was Rooney not in good form in this game, but the performance of the two new aids De Bruyne and Salah in the winter was also very average.

The accuracy of De Bruyne's passing is still very poor, and the short pass is okay, but as long as it is a long-distance pass, whether it is a through ball or a high-altitude ball, it is always a little bit worse. Van Persie in the frontcourt He and Icardi failed to get the ball for several consecutive sprints, and the two exhausted their energy in vain.

And Salah's performance today is also very average. Apart from a few beautiful passes, his cooperation with his teammates is also very poor. Either he passed the ball to an empty space where no one was, or he started early and caught the ball offside. He missed all three consecutive good opportunities.

Since De Bruyne and Salah came on the field, the team's offensive efficiency has dropped a lot. The two of them seem to be a level behind the combination of Carrick and Martial just now.

Therefore, throughout the second half, apart from Rooney's extremely poor state, the two new players also performed poorly.

Several players in Manchester United's defense remained stable. Under Vidic's command, the entire defense was orderly, and Swansea did not create any good opportunities.

The final score of this game was fixed at 3 to 1, and Manchester United scored three points with satisfaction. They have won seven consecutive victories in the recent Premier League, and they are closely chasing the top Manchester City behind them. However, Manchester City's state is also very good recently, and they have also won successive battles, so the difference between the two teams is still 7 points, and the points gap has not narrowed.

But Kintag is very confident, as long as he continues to win with this momentum and patiently waits for Manchester City to make a mistake, then the league championship will still be Manchester United!

After the victory over Swansea on January 11, the Manchester United players can breathe a little bit. Their next game is 8 days later, away to Chelsea, and they now have plenty of time to prepare for the next game.

Although the players are a little more relaxed, Kintag will be very busy in the next few days.

First of all, on the afternoon of January 12, Kintag will accompany Rooney to London to attend the hearing of the FA and finally decide the result of the punishment. As for the final result, Jin Taige had no idea...
