Chapter Forty-Four, the First Victory

When the Manchester United players returned to the locker room, Kim Tiger smiled: "What did I say to you before the game, do you remember?"

The young Raphael stood up with a naughty face: "Boss, I can't remember the other words clearly, but the one I remember most clearly is the sentence 'There is Kante!'"

Rafael's vivid imitation won everyone laughing, and Jin Taige gave a thumbs up: "Beautiful! It's enough for you to remember this sentence. Kante, played beautifully in the first half, and continued to do so in the second half."

"Yes, boss." Kanter nodded sincerely. Fans outside may not have imagined that the black-faced man who was like a ferocious man in the first half turned out to be so kind in the end.

Since the overall situation has been decided, at the beginning of the second half, Kim Tiger replaced Van Persie, who had some leg discomfort, with Icardi, letting Icardi at the top and Rooney behind him.

In the second half, Swansea obviously attacked a lot more violently. It seems that during the intermission, Laudrup must have made a lot of tactical arrangements.

But despite this, Swansea have nothing to do with Manchester United's defense, and their biggest headache is Kante. Kante, like a ghost, can appear in every corner of the defense in time, disrupting Swansea's attacking rhythm and defuse the danger in front of Manchester United.

Laudrup complained angrily to the assistant coach on the sidelines: "Since the Manchester United No. 13 can run so well, he should go to track and field competitions instead of being a football player."

Although Laudrup said so, but he had to admire in his heart, this Kante's defensive ability is really too strong.

At the 65th minute of the game, Jintaige made another substitution adjustment. He replaced Evra, who was overstretched by physical strength, with Alonso. Evra is old, and such continuous forward assists are not good for him. It is already a very difficult thing to say, replace the young player Alonso and continue to impact Swansea's fragile defense.

In 68 minutes, Kim Tiger replaced veteran Ryan Giggs with Mahrez.

But I didn't expect these two substitutions to have an immediate effect. In the first half, Ryan Giggs seldom made breakthroughs on the flanks, because after all, he was too old and could not improve his speed, so he was more of a supporter and a cross from the flank, while Mahrez was different. , gave full play to his speed advantage, made rapid breakthroughs on the left, stirred up the chaos of Swansea's defense on the right, coupled with Alonso's assists, these two were like two steel knives, The Swansea players who played more than 70 minutes were tortured.

Soon, the goal came again.

This time, it was Alonso's wing breakthrough, and then two defenders saw the ball to Mahrez. Mahrez pretended to cut in the middle, then suddenly pulled the side, rushed to the bottom line, and the ball was about to go out of bounds. In an instant, the ball was passed to the center of the penalty area, and Rooney had already outflanked it. His powerful header smashed the ball into the dead corner.

4 to 0!

Today, the Manchester United fans in the stands were hoarse, and Rodney pretended to complain to Cook: "There are too many goals in this game, and my voice is hoarse."

Cook found it funny: "You don't know your happiness in the blessing."

At this time, in the Manchester Crimson Bar, the cheers of Manchester United players almost lifted the roof.

"Oh SH*T, I have to go to the next away game, even if the tigress in my house doesn't agree, I have to go!"

"Jin Taige is so handsome. If he continues to fight like this, he will have no problem defending his title this year!"

"Yeah, maybe the Champions Cup can go further."

"What does it mean to go further, have you forgotten what Jin Taige said, our goal is the 'Triple Crown'!"

"Triple Crown! Triple Crown!"

The Crimson Bar burst into cries, and the Red Devils fans went into a frenzy.

At 85 minutes in the second half,

Swansea wins a free kick in the attacking half. Swansea's No. 8 player, the young attacking midfielder Shelvey took a wonderful free kick, bypassing the wall and hanging directly into the dead corner of the Manchester United fans. De Gea couldn't save and had to sigh.

Seeing that Swansea scored a face-saving goal, Raman on the commentary said sourly: "No matter how large Kante's defensive area is, he can't do anything about this free kick."

Such a strong word made Maurice beside him laugh out loud. Seeing that the team he supported made a good start to the league, Morris was in a good mood: "Jin Tiger fought back those who questioned him with a one-sided game, and several new players performed well in this game. Very good, especially the starting midfielder Kante, he has become the core of this Manchester United team's midfield defense. Without him, I think Manchester United might have conceded more goals in this game. Anyway, although Five minutes to go, but Manchester United's three points are firmly in their hands."

But Raman held a league schedule in his hand, shook his head and said: "Swansea is too weak to watch at all. Needless to say, it is Jin Tiger, even if Scholes beside him is replaced by Manager, this game can be won. Winning the underdog doesn't mean anything, Manchester United's next schedule is very interesting. In the second round of the league, they will be waiting for Chelsea's challenge at Old Trafford; the third round of the league , they will visit Anfield Stadium to challenge the arch-rival Liverpool; after the fourth round of the home game against Crystal Palace, in the fifth round of the league, they will go to the Etihad Stadium to fight with the city's arch-rival Manchester City. After winning these few strong dialogues, he can truly be recognized by everyone."

Although it sounds harsh, Morris agrees with Raman's analysis. Indeed, this game is really a bit easy for Manchester United. If he can take the lead in the dialogue with the top 6 of the Premier League, then Kim Tiger is truly recognized by everyone.

As the referee blew the final whistle, the game was over and United finally thrashed Swansea 4-1 for their first win of the Kintag era. Jin Taige stood on the sidelines and hugged his players one by one. Looking at these sweaty players, Jin Taige couldn't help feeling full of pride. He was full of confidence in his future and full of hope for Manchester United's future.

The straight-line distance from Swansea to Manchester is about 185 kilometers. The bus drove at a constant speed on the highway. Manchester United players laughed and laughed. The joy of victory made them very happy. But at this time, Jin Taige's mind has already flown back to Manchester, and he is now thinking about an extremely important matter...
