Chapter 527 is simply crazy!

With a 6-1 victory over Sporting CP, Manchester United finally climbed to the top of the group rankings.

In another match, Besiktas and Dortmund tied, with both teams scoring 1 point each.

After three rounds of games, Manchester United has two wins and one draw, with 7 group points and first place in the group.

Besiktas has 5 points and Dortmund has 4 points, closely followed, the gap is not big.

Sporting CP has lost three games in a row and is at the bottom of the group.

The qualifying situation of this group is still anxious. Just one game between the top three can change the ranking instantly.

The pressure on Manchester United in the Champions League is still not small.

But no matter what, they still have some psychological advantages by being ranked first.

After winning this game, Manchester United will play in the Premier League again three days later.

This time their opponent is Huddersfield.

After two tough games in a row and another Premier League match, the physical fitness of Manchester United players has dropped significantly.

Fortunately, Huddersfield is weaker, so Manchester United still has a good grasp of this game.

As a relegation team, Huddersfield is still very self-aware.

In this game, they formed a 4-5-1 formation and retreated across the board.

In the actual game, their formation even shrank to 6-3-1, which was even more exaggerated.

Facing such an opponent, Mourinho's formation is naturally full of offensive power.

In the last game, only one forward, Lukaku, was played. In this game, Manchester United scored three goals!

Center Rooney, with Rashford and Martial on the left and right, and Lingard behind Rooney.

Xia Xing and Matic serve as defensive midfielders.

看起来还是4-2-3-1，但实际踢起来就变成了4-1-2-3。

Xia Xing has a good position and has formed a double attacking midfielder with Lingard for a long time.

The front trident attacked fiercely.

Manchester United only had one idea in this game - to win the game with sharp offense!

Due to rotation, attacking players such as Lukaku and Pogba who performed well in the previous game did not appear. The only passer in the midfield was Xia Xing.

But this does not prevent Manchester United from scoring goals.

In the 11th minute of the game, Manchester United relied on their attack from the left to tear open the defense!

Rashford took the ball from the left and drove straight in!

His speed advantage is very obvious, and his foot skills are also quite good!

One change of direction, one man and the ball passed by, it was so exciting!

After passing two opposing defenders in a row, Rashford has already rushed into the penalty area!
He dodged the angle, slipped his foot, and shot low!
The ball went straight into the near corner of the goal!

1 is better than 0!

Manchester United scored first!
7 minutes later, this time it was Martial's continuous changes on the right!

Breaking into the penalty area and volleying into the far corner of the goal with his right foot!
The goalkeeper didn't react in time and the ball went into the net!
2 is better than 0!

Another goal for Manchester United!
In the 19th minute of the game, Manchester United gained something again!

This time it was Rooney's solo performance.

Xia Xing went straight into the penalty area, and Rooney stopped the ball with his back.

Rashford and Martial next to him quickly caught up with the response, and Lingard stepped forward to protect him!

But Rooney didn't pass the ball!
He took the ball with his back, feinted to the left, and suddenly dribbled to the right!
Directly dodge the opponent's defensive gap!

Take a low kick and shoot into the near corner of the goal!

The goalkeeper's view was blocked by the defender and he could only watch the ball go into the net!

3 is better than 0!

Another goal for Manchester United!
The game only lasted 20 minutes, and Manchester United scored three goals in a row!

Manchester United has secured the victory in advance!

Mourinho is in a great mood on the sidelines!

He expected to win this game, but he didn't expect to win so easily!
Steady!

With three goals in hand, Manchester United's offense is not over yet.

In the 43rd minute of the game, Lingard received a pass from Matic outside the penalty area and he volleyed directly!The ball passed through the crowd and hit the net!

4 is better than 0!

Another goal for Manchester United!
At halftime, Manchester United returned to the dressing room with a relaxed attitude of having a four-goal advantage.

Mourinho made decisive substitutions and adjustments.

He directly used up three substitutions.

Rooney, Xia Xing and Ashley Young came off the field, and Mata, McTominay and Rojo came on as substitutes.

This is a rare situation in the Premier League where Xia Xing was substituted at halftime.

"Coach, I can still play, no problem."

"Come down and take a rest. It's hard to get such an easy victory. Adjust well and prepare to continue to deal with the intensive competition."

"But……"

"Stop it, the next games will not be easy. I don't agree with you even if you want to take a rest."

"Ok."

Sitting on the bench, Xia Xing also felt very relaxed.

Playing against an opponent of this level really won't put much pressure on him.

Not as powerful and exciting as the opponents in the virtual arena.

Three substitute players came on the scene and quickly entered the game.

The team did not have many organizational tasks in this game because the opponent set up a iron barrel formation and did not have many passing routes.

McTominay's strong body and long-range shot came in handy.

In the 57th minute of the game, Mai received the ball in the midfield, squeezed away the opponent's defender, and volleyed straight into the dead center of the goal!
The ball hit hard and exploded into the net!

5 is better than 0!

Another goal for Manchester United!
As a substitute, McTominay scored when he came on, and Mata did not show weakness.

Under Mourinho, he played as a rotation player.

However, he was always conscientious and did not show any dissatisfaction.

Every time he rotates or comes on as a substitute, he can bring a lot of help to the team.

For example, now, Manchester United's corner kick is taken, and there is a melee in the penalty area!
Mata grabbed the second point from behind!

Quick poke!
The ball rolled into the near corner of the goal!

The goalkeeper has nothing to do!

6 is better than 0!

Another goal for Manchester United!
They went crazy in this game!

But it's not over yet!

In the 81st minute of the game, there was another corner kick opportunity, and the ball was sent to the center of the penalty area!

This time it was Smalling who rushed up and headed the ball!
A powerful header into the net!
7 is better than 0!

Manchester United scored another one!
They went crazy in this game!

In the live broadcast room, Alan Shearer smiled and applauded.

"In late September, Manchester United suffered a brief goal drought.

“With only two goals scored in three games, the strikers seem to have collectively lost their shooting boots.

“In the past two games, Manchester United reversed Liverpool 4-2 and swept Sporting CP 6-1.
“Ten goals scored in two games,
“And today, they now have a 7-0 lead!

"Manchester United is unstoppable during this period!

“17 goals in three games!
“Their firepower is too intense!
"Who said Mourinho's team only defends?

"Their offense is still shocking in Europe!"

Carragher next to him was unconvinced: "That's because Manchester United has always encountered weak teams recently, such as Sporting CP and Huddersfield. They just bully the weak teams."

Alan Shearer quickly responded: "According to you, Manchester United beat Liverpool 4-2 before, and they were just bullying the underdogs?"

Carragher: "That's not what I meant! You picky guy..."

Alan Shearer: "Hahahaha!"
