Chapter 32, He's Quiet

The first half of Manchester United's third friendly was almost perfect.

In the 12th minute, Mahrez made a breakthrough on the left, and then he passed the ball to Martial on the other side of the goal. Martial did not greedy after receiving the ball. He took advantage of the opportunity to pass the ball to the middle of the goal. At this time Icardi rushed to outflank and shot the ball into the goal. Manchester United lead 1-0.

In the 26th minute, Icardi turned deftly in the frontcourt. Before the opponent's last defender came up, he tapped his heel slightly and returned the ball to Martial who was not far away. Martial After receiving a reciprocal assist from Icardi, he took two steps forward, and then kicked the goal and hit the top corner of the goal, the goalkeeper could not reach. Manchester United lead 2-0.

Towards the end of the first half, Alonso, a new aid in the summer and left back, was unwilling to be lonely. He drove straight in from the left and shot long-range shots from the outside of the penalty area. Big, he didn't catch it all at once and let go. In front of the goal, Icardi rushed forward very dexterously, and slammed the ball into the net with his head before the goalkeeper made a second attack. Manchester United lead 3-0.

And just like that, United ended the first half with a 3-0 lead.

At halftime, Kim Tiger vigorously praised his players, and now the players know more and more about the new coach: Be straightforward.

If the game is lost, find the reason; if the attitude is bad, criticize it severely; of course, if the performance is good, this man called Tiger does not hesitate to praise his words.

In the second half of the game, Jin Tiger made no player and tactical adjustments, and the game was still one-sided. All of the summer signings have done well, except for goalkeeper Alisson - of course, the main reason for Alisson's lack of performance is that the opponent does not have a shot in the door frame. This also made Alisson very depressed. He originally wanted to perform well in front of the new coach, but he didn't expect that this game was too leisurely...

In the 65th minute of the game, Manchester United scored again. Giggs scored this time. At the top of the penalty area, everyone focused on Icardi who scored two goals and Martial who was extremely fast, but Giggs shot. Although his shot has limited power, the angle is extremely tricky. The ball draws a beautiful rainbow in the air and goes straight to the upper corner of the goal. The goalkeeper didn't even make a move, watching the ball dig into the net.

The ball is in! Manchester United lead 4-0!

At this point United players rushed to their old captain Ryan Giggs, hugged him to celebrate the goal.

Soon after a few goals, Jin Taige replaced Ryan Giggs with Kagawa Shinji. When Giggs came off, he was greeted with warm applause from the fans.

Kintag handed Giggs a water bottle: "Ryan, you did a great job. Fortunately, you have been playing on the wing. If you play in the midfield position, it is estimated that Paul will not have anything to do."

Paul honestly spread his hands: "Ryan is now a master in the middle, so what are I waiting for if I don't retire."

"Hahaha!"

Three old friends laughed on the sidelines.

Jin Taige replaced Kagawa Shinji this time, with more commercial purposes. Before the game, Woodward urged him to send Kagawa Shinji at the right time. So now that the score is ahead, I can confidently give Woodward a face. After all, next year's transfer fee will depend on him fighting for a lot at the board meeting.

Jin Taige made several substitution adjustments in a row. He replaced Nani who ran for 70 minutes with Ashley Young. This game Nani performed much better than the previous one. Not only was he running actively, but he also Not so alone anymore, so when he came off the court, Jin Taiga patted him on the shoulder approvingly, approving his performance in this game.

Next, Kintiger replaced Icardi with Hernandez,

Continue to strengthen the attack. Hernandez lived up to the hype, scoring a goal shortly after playing to give United a 5-0 lead.

Jin Taige replaced Ferdinand, who was physically exhausted, with Jones, and let him form a young partner with Van Dijk. But this replacement came at a price. The two young players usually rarely cooperate in training, so Jones scored a goal not long after he played. The score between the two sides became 5-1.

The game that surprised Kintiger the most was Kante. Kanter saw the Jones-Van Dijk combination repeatedly break down and concede a goal. Without any hesitation, he resolutely adjusted his position: he retreated properly when defending, and came to the middle between Jones and Van Dijk. Counter-snatch sweeps in the frontcourt.

After Kante's adjustment, the opponent Hong Kong Zhijie was miserable. They seemed to be facing 12 Manchester United players. They couldn't attack or defend. Hold on, Manchester United will continue to lead.

The game ended at 5-1.

After the game, Jin Taige praised the players of the game, especially the new players. After this game, everyone became more and more familiar with the new players' playing habits, and the team became more and more integrated. the better.

On the bus back to the hotel, Jin Taige deliberately called Kanter to his side: "Kante, during today's game, how did you remember to move back and expand the defensive area?"

Kante scratched his head and changed his fierce and brave appearance on the court. He said honestly: "I saw that Jones and Van Dijk needed help, and then my physical condition was good, so I took the initiative to step back and help them defend, Anyway, I have good physical strength, and I will go up when I attack."

"Oh..." Jin Taige nodded, thinking for a while.

Kanter thought Jintag was unhappy: "Boss, do you blame me for adjusting my position privately? If so, I will pay more attention in the future."

"No no no," Kintag explained hastily, "Kante, you've done a great job, with this ability to read the game, in time, you'll be one of the best defensive midfielders on the planet, no , no one is the best."

After saying these words, Jin Taige stopped talking. He quietly leaned on the bus seat and closed his eyes as if he had fallen asleep. Outside the window, the nightlife in Osaka, Japan has just begun. The brightly lit island country is extremely prosperous, but Jin Taige's heart has long since flown back to England, to Manchester, to Old Trafford, and in his sleep, he heard the tsunami-like shouts from the mountains rang out for him...
