Chapter 835: One-Sided Rose Derby

Leeds United fell behind by two goals in three minutes. Bielsa came to the sidelines and shouted the name of Brazilian midfielder Rafinha. Seeing the other side looking over, he gestured: Keep attacking!

Rafinha nodded to show that he had received it.

The Leeds United players were also very excited when they saw the head coach asking them to continue to press forward and attack. Three minutes into the game, they didn't know what was going on, but they lost two goals. This really made them feel frustrated.

Leeds United's offensive line, which has Bamford, Klich, Harrison, Rodrigo and Rafinha, is still very strong. The 22 goals scored in the first 13 league rounds and the average scoring rate of 1.7 goals per game is the best explanation.

Soon, Leeds United launched a very threatening offensive. Rafinha suddenly sent an overhead pass on the right, Bamford headed the ball, Rodrigo missed the ball beautifully, and Klich got the ball from behind. He saw that Manchester United goalkeeper De Gea was standing a little forward and suddenly kicked the ball.

The football flew towards the goal in a beautiful arc. Fortunately, De Gea reacted quickly, took two steps back, jumped up like a dolphin, and lifted the football with one hand. The football hit the crossbar and went out of the bottom line.

"Wow, beautiful." Martin Taylor exclaimed, "Klich's shot was beautiful, and De Gea's save was also wonderful."

Bielsa applauded on the sidelines, cheering for Leeds United's wonderful attack.

Mourinho was also shocked by Klich's shot, but what Mourinho appreciated most was Rodrigo's missed ball just now. This Spanish player is very spiritual.

………………

Leeds United's corner kick, Rafinha kicked into the penalty area, Maguire jumped high and headed the ball out of the penalty area first, and then Gundogan tried to launch a quick counterattack, but the ball was destroyed by Phillips and went out of the bottom line.

Mourinho applauded on the sidelines. For corner kicks and free kicks, Mourinho was not too worried as long as they were not in a good position to shoot directly. Leeds United lacks an absolute high point in the lineup, and the threat of headers is small. Neither Klich, Rafinha or Harrison are good at competing for headers. That is, center forward Bamford has a certain ability to score with headers.

Leeds United's offense gradually improved, and then Harrison's cut-in shot at the top of the penalty area was slightly off, and Rodrigo also had a shot attempt, forcing De Gea to make a beautiful save.

De Gea's outstanding performance made Mourinho very happy. But what made him even happier was Manchester United's counterattack afterwards.

Bruno and McTominay simply made a two-on-one cooperation, and Bruno passed the ball to Rashford. Rashford pretended to pass the ball to Mbappe, and then did not pass the ball into the penalty area, but suddenly passed it outside, and Gundogan, who came in from behind, shot high with a long shot.

This is not the key to the problem. What caught Mourinho's attention was that when Gundogan shot, the German adjusted and shot. During the entire shooting process, no Leeds United player went up to interfere.

Even the most aggressive Leeds United midfielder Phillips only arrived after Gundogan finished shooting.

The loopholes in the back line of Leeds United, who tried to press forward to attack, were exposed.

………………

Mourinho smiled. Now, Leeds United pressed forward and there was space behind them, while Manchester United pressed forward tit-for-tat and there was also space behind them. It depends on who can seize the opponent's space and score first.

Manchester United has two goals in hand, and Mourinho feels that he can bet on attacking with Bielsa.

Even if Leeds United pulls back a goal, it is not a big deal. But once Manchester United can score first against Leeds United and change the score from 2:0 to 3:0, this goal will be the key hammer to destroy the resistance of Leeds United!

Mourinho has the confidence to fight against such a desperate attack.

From the beginning of the game, it was a battle between the two head coaches. For Leeds United and Manchester United, who have not encountered each other in the past 16 years, this is an encounter.

It is said that the bravest win when two sides meet on a narrow road. In this case, momentum is very important.

Leeds United fell behind by 2 goals away from home early on, and the players seemed a little confused. Although Bielsa asked Leeds United to continue attacking, the players had some concerns in their hearts, and their momentum was weak.

Mourinho very firmly asked the whole team to play an offensive momentum, which suppressed Leeds United. The balance of victory was completely tilted towards Manchester United at this moment.

"The team's offensive momentum is very good now." Bielsa's assistant coach said happily, "As long as we can get a goal back as soon as possible, the situation will change greatly."

"Still be careful." Bielsa waved his hand and said, "Manchester United's counterattack is still very sharp. They almost succeeded in the counterattack just now."

Bielsa thought that Manchester United deserved to be the Premier League four-time champion team, and it was indeed a difficult team to deal with, but he did not think that his team had no power to fight back against Manchester United.

As for Manchester United's two goals so quickly, it can only be said that Leeds United's luck was not good enough, and it cannot be said that his tactical choice was wrong.

………………

Almost as soon as Bielsa finished speaking, another goal was scored on the field.

Rodrigo tried to pass the ball to Harrison, but his passing intention was too obvious, and Kante suddenly stepped forward to steal the ball.

After stealing the ball, Kante quickly passed the ball to Gundogan, and Manchester United quickly counterattacked.

Gundogan dribbled the ball forward at high speed, Bruno came to meet him, Cooper went up to defend, and Alioski protected Cooper behind him.

At this moment, McTominay suddenly moved closer, and his running position also led another central defender Ayling to come over.

At the same time, Rashford also ran to this side, which led Leeds United's right back Dallas to protect the wing.

Just when Leeds United's defensive center of gravity tilted to the left, Gundogan suddenly sent a diagonal pass.

Then people saw Luke Shaw inserted at high speed.

Leeds United's defense became flustered because of this extremely penetrating diagonal pass and Luke Shaw's insertion.

Dallas left Rashford and hurriedly turned to pounce on Luke Shaw.

Luke Shaw pretended to cut in from the bottom, attracting Dallas to continue to come, and also inducing central defender Ayling to come to protect.

At this moment, the top of the arc on the right side of Leeds United's penalty area was instantly empty.

Luke Shaw pushed a diagonal pass back and sent it directly to the unguarded area.

The ball arrived, and the people arrived.

Mbappe appeared in front of the football.

"A beautiful pass."

The Millennium Stadium was filled with jubilation.

A perfect version in the 16-9 book forum!

………………

Mbappe, who received the ball, kicked the ball and the ball rolled quickly towards the goal along the grass. Originally, Meslier might have been able to save the ball, but he subconsciously looked at McTominay, and it was because of this extra glance that he reacted too late to save the ball.

Everyone saw the ball rolling past the right leg of Leeds United goalkeeper Meslier, then hit the outside of the far post, making a bang, and then bounced out.

McTominay saw the ball bounced right at his feet, he swung his right foot, Cooper stretched his legs to block it, and was surprised to see that the Scotsman did not shoot, but passed the ball.

Looking at the rolling ball, Mbappe, who was just frustrated or frustrated because the ball was blocked by the post, opened his eyes wide, and he raised his foot to shoot.

The goal was half empty, and this time, the ball rolled into the net without any suspense.

"GOOOOOOOOOOOOOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!"

"3:0! Incredible game, Mbappe's goal, his shot was blocked by the post, and then McTominay passed the ball very selflessly to assist him to score. The atmosphere in Manchester United is really good, McTominay is really selfless."

Seeing the ball fly into the net, Mbappe was excited, he rushed to McTominay, McTominay could have shot directly just now, but he passed the ball to him.

Mbappe was very excited, the Scotsman was still very considerate, you know, he had the opportunity to shoot and score at that time, and once this ball went in, McTominay would have performed a hat trick.

But even so, McTominay still passed the ball, passing it to him who was in a better position, so he had to thank McTominay.

The Scots and the French hugged each other, hand in hand, with their hands on their waists, jumping and jumping, Rashford and Luke Shaw also excitedly participated.

………………

"The game started only nineteen minutes ago, and Manchester United led Leeds United 3:0." Martin Taylor said.

Bielsa, who saw the team lose the ball on the sidelines, held his head with both hands, then scratched his hair, stared at the field, and cursed. This kind of anger and disappointment cannot be described in words.

He only knew that he was very angry, very angry.

Bielsa felt that he had thought of everything and he had done well enough, but why did it happen like this?

Ten minutes after the start, 0:3, what happened?

Even facing Liverpool, Manchester City, Arsenal and Chelsea, who are also the BIG6 of the Premier League, Leeds United has never suffered such a tragic start.

Bielsa is in pain.

The Leeds reporters in the media seats were also stunned. Even in the first round of the season, when Leeds United faced Ravilho away in a stabbing match, there was no such a miserable start.

In the nineteenth minute of the game, Manchester United led Leeds United 3:0 at home.

Countless Manchester United fans around the world who watched the game on TV and computers have already started to celebrate: the Rose Derby after 16 years, the game just started 19 minutes, they shocked the world!

Leeds United scored a goal in the 21st minute of the game.

Leeds United took a corner kick from the left side, Cooper jumped high near the penalty spot and headed the ball, the ball drew a beautiful arc and hung in the net, Manchester United goalkeeper De Gea had no way to deal with this ball.

1:3, Leeds United scored a goal.

Bielsa waved his fist to celebrate on the sidelines, he shouted to cheer the team up, one goal back, only two goals left, come on, boy.
