"It's worth mentioning that in the 12th round of the Premier League Manchester United vs. Tottenham and the 19th round of the Premier League against Newcastle, the same score was scored in those two games. However, the original two In the game, Manchester United have not fallen behind by three goals."
Zhang Lu nodded in agreement: "This Manchester United game is really wonderful. They dedicated a big reversal. But I don't know if it is necessary to die like Manchester City in the case of the championship. After all, Three days later, they will usher in the final round of the Champions League quarter-finals against Malaga."
"Málaga performed very well this season. The first time they played in the Champions League, they reached the quarterfinals. Although they didn't encounter any too strong opponents along the way, they were able to beat AC Milan in the group stage. Once in the knockout, the strength is also worthy of recognition."
"This Malaga, under the tutelage of Chilean engineer Pellegrini, although there are no big stars, their tactics are very worthy of recognition."
"It’s worth mentioning that Isco, the teenager in the Malaga team, and Pogba in the Manchester United, are the biggest contenders for this year’s European Golden Boy Awards. However, Isco has already picked up in Malaga. Compared to the heavy lifting, Pogba appears more as a rotation player in Manchester United. After all, Pogba still has to compete with superstars like Sneijder."

The yellow card suspension of Willigton and Itura's main force, in addition, Duda replaced Saviola.
After the game started, the Manchester United players at home were not very excited. The fierce battle with Manchester City three days ago has caused many Manchester United main players to consume too much physical energy, but it has not yet fully recovered.
Under such circumstances, Malaga is mainly the anti-guest, but has an advantage in Old Trafford. And in the first half of the first 25 minutes to score goals.

The ball passed through Smolin's crotch and went straight to the bottom right corner of the goal. De Gea couldn't save it, 1:0, Malaga grabbed the lead.
………………

In the 33rd minute, Bell used his personal ability to break into the penalty area and passed the ball. The ball was blocked by the defensive player. Bell took Dortmund's first corner kick to fail to create a threat.
In the 38th minute, Joaquin took the ball on the left and then dribbled the right in a row. The ball was released by Modric. The experienced former Spanish international is in excellent form today, fully demonstrating his ball control advantage in the frontcourt and scoring an ice-breaking goal.
After 1 minute, Van Persie had a one-on-one chance with Caballero in the penalty area. The Argentine goalkeeper promptly hit the ball for a support, and the second reaction was quick and the ball was quickly obtained.

Manchester United equalized the total score, but still trailed by fewer goals away.
………………
After the start of the second half, Manchester United began to attack aggressively.
They have no retreat.
Although the total score is 1:1, but Malaga has 1 away goal, the Red Devils must score another goal to ensure that they get the promotion right.
Malaga, under the direction of Pellegrini, used Manchester United with defensive counter-tactics.
In the 46th minute, Van Persie received a pass from Bell in the penalty area and kicked up and was caught by Caballero.
After 1 minute, Evra, who already had a yellow card on his back, kicked Baptista during his own half-time defense. Fortunately, the referee showed mercy and did not give Evra a second yellow card.
Isco's free kick passed to the penalty area, Demikelis headed the ferry, and the header was scored in front of Hua Jinmen. De Gea used an incredible save to reject the ball.
In the 51st minute, Sanchez made a header to make a mistake and gave Rooney an oolong "assistance". Unfortunately, Rooney's volley after the ball was unloaded from the chest was higher than the crossbar.
In the 58th minute, Manchester United's straight ball tore through the Malaga defense. Rooney's right-side counter-offside succeeded and broke into the penalty area to hit the goal. The ball hit the defender's body out of the bottom line.

In the 60th minute, Modric and Games had physical contact near the sideline. Games' excessively exaggerated painful fall action not only failed to allow the opponent to take another card, but instead was yellow carded by the referee Thomson for a false fall.
In the 67th minute, Van Persie scored a header and scored an empty goal. However, when Sneijder gave him a header, he was offside and the goal was invalid.
………………
In the high-tempo offensive and defensive transition, the game time passed very quickly, unconsciously, the game time has passed seventy minutes.
If the game ends with this score, Manchester United will be eliminated from the semi-finals because of the disadvantage of fewer away goals, which is clearly unacceptable to Manchester United.
In the cheering of home fans, Manchester United's offensive is getting fiercer. But Bell's condition today is not very good, coupled with Malaga's strict marking on him, he has few opportunities.
While Rooney is on the right road, although he has obtained many opportunities~lightnovelpub.net~, Van Persie and Rooney failed to catch it.
Seeing that the game time had reached 80 minutes, the Manchester United players' mentality jumped a bit, and the offense seemed very hasty.
But just when Manchester United couldn't get upset for a long time, Malaga made a counterattack after the ball was blocked in the backcourt.
In the 81st minute, Isco sent in from the left and sent straight, Baptista shook off Carrick's defense, and in the face of the attacking De Gea pushed the goal, Eliseu made up before the ball entered the net. On the last foot, 2:1, Malaga once again exceeded the score, and Manchester United must score two more goals to advance.
………………
There are only less than ten minutes left in the game. Even if the injury time is added, it is only in the early ten minutes, but it is necessary to score at least two goals. This is undoubtedly extremely difficult.
At this time, the debate over whether Manchester United and Manchester City's death knell was worthwhile intensified in the last weekend.
Many people believe that Manchester United continue to die with Manchester City in the situation where the league has won the championship, causing the main players to consume too much physical energy, and also leading to the current passive situation. This is obviously the picking of sesame and losing the watermelon.
Everyone knows that Manchester United hopes to win the Champions League again this season, because it means that they won the Champions League three consecutive championships, while also surpassing the rivals Liverpool in the number of Champions League wins, becoming the undisputed first giant of England.
However, if they are eliminated by Malaga today, then Manchester United want to surpass Liverpool in the Champions League, only to wait until next year.
There are fans on the Internet who ridicule Liverpool, saying that Liverpool fans have thanked Manchester City. It is they who died at Old Trafford and Manchester United. This caused a huge physical consumption for Manchester United and also prevented Liverpool from overtaking this season. In addition, this also allows the former British hegemon to continue to maintain a face.
