The Red Devils Successor

The bus slowly drove towards the hotel where Manchester United lived. Scholes sat beside Kintag, and he asked gently, "Captain, what are you writing?"

Jintaige whispered to him: "Paul, I'm thinking about the starting lineup for the next game."

Scholes also sighed: "Today's game is really too bad, at this level, it is estimated that next season will not even qualify for the Champions League."

"I think so too, so I just scolded them, but now it's useless to be angry, and quickly consider the lineup of the next game in advance is the correct solution." Jin Taige handed the notebook in his hand to Si Coles.

Scholes looked at it: "Almost all the starting lineups have changed? This is also good, it is originally training, so that more players can find the state."

In the next three days, Jin Taige asked Woodward to push off some commercial activities. He borrowed the training ground of the Osaka Sakura Club to allow the team to continue training together.

Over the past few days, Jin Taige feels that his training that day seems to have some effect. The players have obviously passed more balls, fewer singles, and their energy has improved a lot. Kintag nodded, and it looks like the next game should be better.

Twenty-three days later, Manchester United ushered in the second friendly match opponent, Osaka Sakura. This is a team that has been ranked in the top several places in Japan, with good strength and small skills.

之前 Before the game, Woodward specifically instructed: "Tiger, this game must be played by Shinji Kagawa. After all, this is Japan's home field, we have to consider the sponsor effect."

Jintaige nodded: "This time I listen to you."

"Dear Tiger, you are so awesome!" Woodward was content.

In fact, Jintaige did not use Kagawa Shinji because of Woodward's recommendation, but because he really wanted to change the starting lineup.

The goalkeeper position remains De Gea and has not changed; the midfield partner of the defender, Ferdinand and Vidic has been replaced by Jones and Smolin. These two will provoke the defensive task of this game, and the full-back will still be Egypt. Frau left and Raphael right. On the midfield, Carrick and Anderson, who started in the previous game, were replaced. The old injury of Carrick was slightly recurring and needed recuperation. Anderson's last game was like a disaster. The performance made Jintaige very dissatisfied, so the midfield of this game was replaced by Fletcher and Kagawa, the same one responsible for organization and one for the front fork attack; the left and right sides were replaced by Ashley Young and Valencia; The forward line uses a high and fast combination of Welbeck and Hernandez.

This lineup is completely a backup lineup from last season, but it has played a very good effect.

It was only five minutes after the opening. Maybe Kagawa was very excited on the offensive side because he was very excited in front of Japanese fans. His intervening offense and Hernandez complement each other. Both are very smart types. Kagawa Shinji is in the penalty area. Pretending to shoot hard at the top, the opponent's defender fell to the ground and shoveled. As a result, Shinka Kagawa lightly buckled, revealing the gap in front of him. His outer instep shuddered slightly. Hernandez happened to be very comfortable offside After receiving the ball, he didn't stop the ball at all, but pushed it with the arch to the far corner. The ball went straight to the bottom right corner of the goal.

The goal was scored! Manchester United lead 1-0.

The players on the court were very excited. The players shouted the name of Shinji Kagawa. The biggest beauty of this ball was the one pass and one pass of Shinji Kagawa, which was just right.

Jintaige also stood up on the coach seat, waving his fist, celebrating the goal.

However, the Osaka Sakura team is unwilling to show weakness. They played against Manchester United in front of the home fans. The two teams come and go, and the scene is very beautiful. Ashley Young and Valencia on the wing sent consecutive goals. If it wasn't for Welbeck's ability to grasp the chances, Manchester United is at least 3-0 ahead. At this time, Evra and Raphael were not lonely. The two also frequently assisted. Finally, two minutes before the end of the first half, Manchester United scored again.

This time it was Hernandez. Raphael made a long drive on the right. After two players, he made a decisive cross. The former Welbeck headed back and the latter El Nanders kept up, followed by a kick and penetrated the opponent's goal again.

Manchester United ended the first half with a 2-0 advantage.

During the intermission, Jin Taige brazenly praised his players in the locker room: "It seems that my precepts have been effective a few days ago, you have realized the essence of the Red Devil spirit, and continue to do so kick."

"Yes, boss!" The players replied loudly. At this moment, everyone was so excited that they looked forward to the end of the intermission and scored a few more goals.

But the second half just started ~ www.readwn.com ~ The players on the field found something wrong. The opponent replaced two young players, and then the overall formation shrank in the backcourt. Manchester United players could do nothing.

"They started to defend and fight back?" Kintag sat firmly on the coach's bench and watched the situation on the court.

Scholes is also observing: "With their strength, playing against us is to find death. The opposing coach finally wants to understand."

Actually, the head coach of Osaka Sakura couldn't tell. He naturally knew how good Manchester United was, but the team chairman gave him a death order and had to play a beautiful game to please the home fans. So in the first half, he played against Manchester United and was extremely miserable. During the intermission, he disregarded the pre-match requirements of the chairman and ordered the team to defend the counterattack. Then he replaced two older players and replaced them with two young, fast players as a sharp weapon for counterattack.

Even he didn't expect that his tactical adjustments were immediate. After less than 20 minutes in the second half, the scoreboard on the field changed twice in a row. Now the score on the field is 2 to 2, which is flat.

These two offenses are Osaka Sakura's defensive counterattack, which breaks through the middle to create opportunities. Although Kagawa Shinji is smart, but physically weak; Fletcher is more defensive and mediocre; while Jones and Smolin are tall, but the disadvantages of the smart Osaka Sakura players who are slow to turn around are infinitely enlarged; so Osaka Sakura caught Two chances broke through Manchester United's midfield barrier and scored. De Gea who scored these two goals is also very helpless.

In order to consider the strength of the players, Jin Jinge rarely adjusted his tactics, but only replaced two players who were not physically fit. In the end the game ended 2-2.

Manchester United's second friendly match ended in a draw.
