Football King Bale

Although he defeated Tottenham, Ferguson was very dissatisfied with Manchester United's performance. Ferguson said after the game: "Although we won, I was very disappointed with the process of the game. This was a very exciting game. However, we did not enter the game at all in the first half and played listlessly. This was a very bad result. At the beginning of the game, Tottenham broke the deadlock with a deflection ball. Our defense was really poor, which also made us passive. After that goal, we started to play against the wind, and it was not until the beginning of the second half that we could try to reverse the situation of the game. We played very well in the second half and eventually reversed the score. I think the main reason for the change was the change in attitude, which is the most important thing. Bell's ability did help the game, but the players' performance on the court Very good attitude.”

In a high-paced schedule, Manchester United has no time to lick the wounds of this tragic victory, because on Tuesday night, their second leg of this season's Champions League group stage will be played thousands of miles away in the Romanian city of Cluj.

Manchester United flew to Romania on Sunday.

In this Champions League group match, Manchester United's defense almost became Achilles' heel again. In the 14th minute, Sogu received a precise pass from Bastos midfielder on the right side of the frontcourt and crossed into the penalty area. Evra and Evans failed to form a block. Capetanos's right foot was 10 meters away. The sweep shot sent the ball into the lower left corner of the goal to give Cluj a 1:0 lead.

However, Manchester United quickly equalized the score. In the 29th minute, Manchester United received a well-positioned free kick on the left side of the frontcourt. Bell took the penalty and directly scored Cluj's goal.

Three minutes later, Manchester United scored another victory. Bell broke through from the left and swept the ball across the middle. Van Persie volleyed from the front of the penalty area and scored. Manchester United reversed the score 2:1!

Shortly after the start of the second half, Manchester United once again expanded its lead.

In the 49th minute, Manchester United's front three made a very beautiful collaboration. After Bell broke through from the left, he moved the ball in a wide range and sent it to the right. Then Rooney made a diagonal pass from the right side of the frontcourt into the penalty area. Robin van Persie stepped in decisively and scored twice with his left foot shot from 8 meters when the home team goalkeeper Firglass hesitated to attack.

Manchester United took control of the situation on the field, and Ferguson also began to make substitutions to allow the main players to rest.

Bell was replaced by Hernandez in the 70th minute of the game, and Pogba and Kante also got the chance to come on as substitutes.

However, in the subsequent games, neither side was able to score again. The score of 3:1 was maintained until the end of the game. Manchester United won two consecutive victories in the Champions League group stage as they wished.

………………

Manchester United came back from behind to defeat Cluj, winning two consecutive Champions League victories and taking the lead in Group H.

Bell shot and passed, and was voted the best of the match again after the game.

Robin Hood, who scored twice to save Manchester United, was also very impressive. The Dutchman scored 7 goals in 7 starts, but he was still not satisfied. He said in an interview: "I think I am adapting to the new team very well. In this environment, I hope to provide more assists to my teammates, not just scoring goals. I hope to contribute more assists. I will work hard to improve in this area. My state has been really good recently, but I hope to do to better.”

After joining Old Trafford, Van Persie's scoring rate is even worse than that of Arsenal. Robin Hood is also very satisfied with his performance after the transfer, and even expressed that he enjoys working with Bale and Rooney on the front line.

"We were both looking forward to this pairing and we did it tonight. It all started with a great pass, so I have to thank Gareth and Wayne for their contribution. Not many players can make passes like that, and when the ball comes to them, I know they can see the route and deliver it like I expected.”

The media believed that Van Persie's second goal for Manchester United was his best goal since joining the Red Devils. The Dutchman said that he was not sure. He said: "Maybe, I have to watch the video again, it feels like It was a good shot."

When Ferguson talked about the excellent cooperation between Bell, Rooney and Robin van Persie in the third goal of Manchester United's frontcourt, he emphasized the role of Bell's transfer and Rooney's pass. He said: "Gareth's transfer, And Wayne's pass was just as good as Robin's final shot, which was a great shot for sure, but Gareth and Wayne also had a good pass, and I was thinking about this The pass probably went a little too far but Robin handled it well and got the ball in the door.”

Bell also said when talking about the cooperation of Van Persie's goal: "This is a wonderful goal by Robin, a wonderful shot, but tonight's game is very difficult, it is a difficult one to play. Away, we had to concentrate on our passing and first touch, but thank God we held on and got the win."

Bell also lamented the difficulty of winning in the Champions League, even if the opponent was only a mediocre Romanian team. He said: "It is very difficult to win in the Champions League. We knew it was stupid to concede the goal so early. Fortunately, we chased the score. Come back. If we can get three points in the next game, our position in the group will be ideal."

Ferguson seemed very dissatisfied after being scored by Cluj. Manchester United's overall performance did not reflect the strength gap that was several levels higher than its opponents. Fortunately, the team won the game and Sir Alex was relieved. In an interview after the game, Ye Ye also said magnanimously: "Playing away games in European competitions is never an easy task. The opponents have a good home record, and you can know why from their performance in the game. They They kept putting pressure on us with crosses, but I'm very happy that we maintained possession of the ball very well. This is a very important advantage. Apart from the conceded goal, our defensive performance was good and De Gea made a wonderful save at the last moment. .”

After the Champions League, Manchester United continues to return to England.

As the Premier League continues one game after another, Manchester United players have little time to breathe.

On the evening of October 7th, Sports Direct Stadium.

In the seventh round of the Premier League, Manchester United challenged Newcastle away from home.

Less than a minute into the game, Rooney created a cross opportunity on the right. Van Persie faced Newcastle's defender and headed wide in the penalty area.

Three minutes later, Bell passed the ball and Sneijder took a long shot from outside the penalty area and missed again.

Then Manchester United turned away and launched a fierce offensive against Newcastle, and took the lead in scoring in the ninth minute.

Modric passed the ball to the left, Evra passed through, Bell passed from the left, and Van Persie easily shot with his right foot in front of the goal, scoring his sixth goal in the league this season.

After receiving assists from Bell in many consecutive games, Van Persie was obviously very satisfied with his strike partner. When celebrating the goal, he even ran to Bell and pulled him all the way to the sidelines.

Just a minute later, Bell created another opportunity, creating space for Evra to shoot, but the French left back's kick was saved by the opponent's goalkeeper and failed to score.

In the fourteenth minute, Manchester United actively launched a frontcourt press. After Rooney stole the ball, he broke into the penalty area from the right side of the penalty area. Bell was always paying attention to the movements of his teammates around him. As soon as he saw Rooney dribbling the ball into the penalty area, he realized that there would be an opportunity at the back point, because Newcastle's defensive attention fell on Van Persie in the center and Rooney on the right. .

Bale believes Rooney can see it.

Sure enough, with Van Persie frozen, Rooney chose to pass the ball to the back post.

Bell quickly stepped in, triggered a killer blow on the line of the small penalty area, and headed the ball from close range, breaking Newcastle's goal again.

………………

After taking a two-goal lead, Manchester United had no intention of letting Newcastle go and continued their offensive against the Magpies.

Just at the beginning of the second half, after Robin van Persie stole the ball on the right again, Modric made a pass from behind. Van Persie made a beautiful volley near the penalty spot in the middle of the penalty area and sent the ball into Newcastle's goal.

Scored twice!

In the end, Manchester United defeated Newcastle 3-0 in an away game and achieved 7 consecutive league victories.

However, Manchester United still failed to widen the points gap with Chelsea, because the Blues also defeated Canary Norwich 4:1 at home in this round.

In this game, Spanish midfielder Mata once again dominated the game. Although he did not score again, he once again became the master of the game. At the end of the game, Mata's data showed 2 assists and planned another goal. Mata contributed three of the four goals. Chelsea has gradually become Mata's team. This is not flattery, but a fact.

With the rapid rise of Hazard, Oscar and others, the media once believed that "Mata should give up his position so that Hazard can take over." However, when Mata gradually returned to good condition, such voices suddenly stopped Disappeared. After all, Mata, as the tactical core of Chelsea's offense, was basically established last season and it is impossible to replace him easily.

Since facing Stoke on September 22, Chelsea has played 5 games, and Mata has scored or assisted in each game. Counting the 2 assists in this game, he has sent 4 goals and 6 assists in 5 games in a row. Such an amazing efficiency, even Bale, Messi and Ronaldo can only do this.

In these 5 games, Chelsea won all of them, scoring 16 goals and conceding 2 goals. Mata's direct participation in the goals accounted for 62.5% of the team's goals. With such a performance, you can't help but admit that he is Chelsea's current number one. One core.

What’s rare is that Mata not only brought goals and victories to Chelsea, but also brought enjoyment that Chelsea did not have in the past, such as delicate cooperation in the frontcourt, flashes of inspiration when taking the ball, leaking the ball, passing people, and challenging. Balls, wonderful passes... Mata devotes his unique and beautiful football in almost every game, which makes the fans intoxicated.

After the game, Di Matteo gave Mata the highest praise: "Mata is an artist on the court. In the last more than half a month, he has been almost omnipotent. I have to say that having him is our biggest success. Lucky."
