The European season is now well into the late stages, and so is the Premier League.
For Manchester United, their schedule is not easy.Although they won Chelsea in the away game, the impact of this game on Manchester United's physical fitness is still quite large.And the next game is the Premier League No.20 six rounds, the away game against Sunderland!
The current competition in the relegation zone is quite fierce. Apart from Aston Villa, which is currently ranked bottom with only 24 points, the next is Sunderland, which is ranked second to last. They have only scored 27 points so far. , and the two teams ranked third and fourth from the bottom are Newcastle and Norwich, and these three teams currently have 28 points. In addition, there are [-] points Swansea and Bournemouth, which scored [-] points, are also in danger of relegation. Therefore, as the league is getting closer and closer to the end, the combat effectiveness of the relegation team should not be underestimated.
It is said that black cats have nine lives, but this season's Sunderland is undoubtedly the favorite for relegation.Their previous league performance was very poor. Although they drew 25-49 with Liverpool in the last round, they have not won in the last four rounds of the league, and the relegation situation is quite severe. Moreover, they conceded [-] goals in the first [-] rounds of the league. The team with the most goals conceded in the Premier League.And what they are facing will be the most powerful offensive combination in the Premier League.Therefore, not many people were optimistic about the prospects of Sunderland's game before the game.
Before the start of the game, Allardyce, the coach of Sunderland and a relegation expert in the Premier League, said: "I want to tell the players to stick to their own style of play. We will fight until the end of the season. Relegation is not hopeless, so we Never give up."
Although he said not to give up, Allardyce did not take this game as the goal of scoring points. After all, the opponent was Manchester United.Instead of fighting Manchester United in this game, it is better to reserve some energy to deal with their direct competitors who are relegated, and to score points on those mid-lower teams.
Allardyce, known as a "relegation expert" in the Premier League, took over the coach of Sunderland in the middle of last season and helped Sunderland, which was deeply in the relegation zone at that time, successfully relegation.
And the situation of Sunderland this season also looks very bad. Therefore, whether this relegation expert can still exert his magic power can only be known after the end of the season.
Ancelotti made some rotations in this game. After all, the last round of the league consumed a lot of money for the team, and in the middle of last week there was a first round of the knockout round of the Champions League round of [-].Although the opponent is the Belgian team Ghent, because it is an away game, Ancelotti still made an appropriate rotation in this game to be on the safe side.
Allardyce sent a 433 formation at home. At first glance, this formation seems to be an offensive formation. After all, there are three forwards in the frontcourt.
But when the game started, people discovered that the two wingers on both sides did not press up to attack at all. The three defensive midfielders in the midfield kept tight to the center, while the full backs and wingers on the wing controlled the space on Manchester United's wing. .In the frontcourt, only one striker Defoe was left.
The two wingers Kaziri and Ndoye seem more like two full-backs, and Sandro actually played a 451 formation.
And Manchester United seems to have not yet come out of the fatigue of the previous game, and Manchester United have made appropriate rotations in the midfield and frontcourt. Therefore, although Manchester United has the advantage in terms of ball possession, but The threatening offense did not play out.
In this game, the teenager Rashford replaced Di Maria and got the chance to start and played on the left winger.
However, in the No. 30 minute of the game, Rashford was counterattacked by Sandro after he forced a breakthrough from the wing and was intercepted.
Defoe scored in front of the goal after receiving a cross from his teammate in the penalty area.
Sunderland scored first at home!
Allardyce immediately walked to the sidelines. The old-school coach in England saw the hope of scoring points in this game.
He waved his arms and yelled to make the Sunderland players who were celebrating their goal pay attention to defense!
Despite conceding a goal, Manchester United's players don't seem to have woken up, and Manchester United's frontcourt offense is not smooth. Rashford on the left often gets the ball, but this young player handles it The experience of the ball is still very immature. Whether it is passing the ball or dribbling the ball, there are some problems in the timing of the choice.
Li Qingshan in the penalty area couldn't get the pass from his teammates, Sunderland had hoarded heavy troops on the wing and the front of the penalty area, and Rashford's ability to handle the ball obviously couldn't compare with Di Maria.And Li Qingshan once tried to pull out to get the ball, but when he finished his turn, all the players in front of him were the opponent's players. The Manchester United players seemed to underestimate this opponent, as if they only needed a light blow to knock them down. Same.But when Sunderland scored, the Manchester United players wanted to get nervous, but found that it was not so easy to get into the state.
Therefore, when Li Qingshan turned around with the ball, almost all the passing lines in front of him were cut off by Sunderland, who was far more active than Manchester United.Although Manchester United's players are more motivated to run than before losing the ball, they seem to have lead on their feet when they run.
Li Qingshan had no choice but to pass the ball back, allowing the team to reorganize another attack.
Until the end of the first half, Manchester United failed to equalize the score.
During the intermission, the good old man Ancelotti rarely got mad in the locker room. He scolded the players on the field bloody.He was very dissatisfied with the team's performance in the first half. If possible, he even planned to replace all eleven players on the field.
This is of course impossible, because he only has three substitutions in his hand.
And before the start of the second half, Ancelotti made a substitution adjustment-three people at once! !
Herrera, Fellaini, and Di Maria stood on the sidelines, replacing Rashford, Blind, and Fusumenza.
However, the substitution did not have any effect. Sunderland got a penalty kick less than 1 minute after kick-off in the second half! !
After the kick-off in the second half, after Sunderland passed the ball into the backcourt, the old Manchester United player O'Shea launched a long pass. When N'Doye ferried the ball to the middle, the football hit Smalling's on the arm!
penalty! !
After the referee blew his whistle, he pointed to the penalty spot. No matter how Manchester United's players protested, the referee remained unmoved.
Defoe easily scored the penalty!
Two to zero! !
"The second half of the game has just started, and Manchester United is already behind by two goals. Is this game going to be a big upset?"
De Gea fished the ball out of his own goal with some helplessness.The whole team is out of shape in this game.
In the next game, Sunderland recovered across the board. Although Manchester United launched waves of onslaughts, the Sunderland players who were aiming to relegation broke out with huge combat effectiveness.
Until injury time, Di Maria, who came off the bench, scored a face-saving goal for Manchester United after receiving a header from Li Qingshan.
After 3 minutes of stoppage time, the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game.
The whole stadium is boiling! !
Sunderland beat Manchester United [-]-[-] at home! !Although this game is the early game of this round of the Premier League, it is already possible to book the biggest upset of this round of the league in advance.
