Chapter 234, Streak Temptation

On February 21, Manchester United soldiers came to London one day earlier to prepare for the league game against Crystal Palace the next day.

On February 22, Manchester United adapted to the venue in advance at home in Crystal Palace, preparing for the afternoon league. But before the afternoon league game started, a major event that shocked the world broke out in Europe.

There is a civil war in Ukraine!

On February 22, civil war broke out in Ukraine, which has been constantly at odds. Yanukovych, then President of Ukraine, was forced into exile, the regime changed color overnight, and the long-standing Ukrainian civil war broke out completely. The Donetsk region, the industrial center of eastern Ukraine, was shrouded in artillery fire, and the home court of the Shakhtar Donetsk club was not spared. And the pride of the city-Shakhtar Donetsk had to leave their hometown and change their home court to Lviv, 600 kilometers away from Donetsk. The club's administrative headquarters has been moved to Kyiv.

Knowing this world-sensational news, Jin Taige was very moved.

A few months ago, they met Shakhtar Donetsk in the Champions League. At Shakhtar Donetsk's home court, Manchester United struggled to fall behind 0 to 1, and finally relied on Rooney's goal. Evened the score and took away a point. And now judging from the news images, Shakhtar Donetsk's home court has also been bombed into disrepair.

For a country and its people, nothing is more important than peace.

If there must be war in this world, then put the war on the green field.

The Kintegto people wanted to get a phone call from Shakhtar Donetsk's Romanian coach Milke Lucescu, and called him to express his greetings.

At this moment of fighting, the old coach Lucescu did not expect to receive a call from Kintag. He expressed his gratitude to Kintag for his greetings and wished him the Champions League and the Premier League.

On the afternoon of February 22, Manchester United came to the home court of Crystal Palace-Selhurst Park Stadium, preparing to launch an impact on the 13-game winning streak in the league.

Manchester United met Crystal Palace again this time, and Crystal Palace has completely changed its appearance.

After the poor performance in the first half, Crystal Palace's league ranking has been hovering in the relegation zone, and the relegation situation is critical. Because of the poor performance, the coach Holloway, who had a good relationship with Kintag, was dismissed at the end of last year, and his successor It's Price. Since Pulis took office, Crystal Palace has won several consecutive victories in the past few months, and has now risen to the eleventh place in the league. There is basically no problem with relegation this season.

The biggest coaching feature of Pulis is the clear tactical goal. He didn't stick to one style of play, but followed the opponent's changes and made changes in lineup and style of play at any time. The last game might have been a long pass tactic, and the next game might become a defensive counterattack. This change is definitely not a good thing for many teams, but the current Crystal Palace, whose style of play is chaotic, has received miraculous effects.

But facing Manchester United today, Pulis made another tactical adjustment. He put on five defenders and three midfielders in one breath, leaving only one midfielder and one striker, and most of the time, The two so-called offensive players also frequently returned to defense.

After 30 minutes of the game, Manchester United bombed around the goal of Crystal Palace, but the penalty area of ​​Crystal Palace was full of people. Manchester United players had no chance to score no matter what means they used.

Phelan said disdainfully: "Crystal Palace is too spineless today. After all, this is at home, and the game is too ugly."

Kintag frowned: "Looking at the iron barrel formation on the field today, Mourinho's Chelsea is not much different from Pulis's Crystal Palace."

Crystal Palace can be said to have retreated across the board today and completely gave up their offense. Their goal today is very clear, which is to hold a point at home, so that they will be satisfied.

But this point is far from enough for Jin Taige. What he is thinking about now is not the issue of one point and three points, but the record of winning 13 games in a row.

Jin Taige was burning with anxiety: I sent all the main players today, if I can't win this game today, then the previous 12 consecutive victories will come to naught.

Kintiger came to the sidelines to direct the team and let the Manchester United players boldly press on. Except for De Gea, only Vidic was left behind in front of the goal to prevent the opponent from counterattacking.

Manchester United used all their strengths, but they still failed to score goals. At the end of the first half, the score was still 0-0.

During the intermission, Kintag made tactical adjustments. He replaced Kanter with Salah, removed the midfielder, and the team formed a three-forward to enhance the team's offensive ability; then Kintag asked Deb Lowe played in the midfield alone, and as the core dispatcher of the team, he controlled the overall offensive and defensive system.

Scholes frowned when he saw Jintag make this adjustment.

As the offensive core, De Bruyne is still a little immature. He needs the assistance of frontcourt players and Kanter's mopping up defensive assistance, but if he is the team's offensive and defensive core, he can take on this important task ?

But Scholes thought for a moment, he opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he still didn't say it.

Since the captain is going to take all three points in this game, this kind of adventure is also indispensable, and it is useless to talk about it.

After making substitutions and adjustments, Jin Taige was very excited to encourage everyone, telling the players to win this game and strive for 13 consecutive victories.

Seeing the enthusiasm of the head coach, the players were all very excited, and everyone was holding back their energy, preparing to create Manchester United's history, striving for 13 consecutive victories, and even 14 consecutive victories in the future.

After the start of the second half of the game, the play styles of the two teams did not change much from the first half. Manchester United still attacked wildly, and Crystal Palace still defended. The only difference is that Manchester United attacked more fiercely, while Crystal Palace is still extremely tenacious.

Kintag has always been very excited. He almost stood on the sidelines to direct the game. Today, he is looking forward to a goal and a victory more than ever before. He watched the Manchester United players on the field constantly threatening the goal of Crystal Palace, violent long-range shots, powerful headers, and grabbing points. This game is not like a Premier League game, but more like a Manchester United team. Internal attack training match.

Even so, Manchester United still missed the chance to score. They seemed to be missing something today. Although they attacked fiercely, they couldn't create an excellent chance to score. This made Jin Taige on the sidelines even more anxious. He shouted at the players on the field again and again, telling them to press on and score goals as soon as possible.

And Scholes, who was standing beside him, was getting more and more worried...
