Although United won the match against Norwich 1-0 in the last round of the Premier League, this victory was really hard-won. It should be noted that Norwich are only a team at the bottom of the Premier League ready to be relegated, while Manchester United have played a very bad performance in the game, which once made people think that this was a showdown between two relegation teams.
The only goal is also not easy to come by, it is C Ronaldo himself to create his own goal to complete the penalty, although scoring the only goal in the whole game, but the 36-year-old C Ronaldo's performance in this game is indeed not satisfactory, everyone can really see: the original C Ronaldo is really old. The most impressive picture is that the high ball came C Ronaldo was ready to shoot without landing on the ground, but accidentally kicked the empty, and then counter-grabbed to put the opponent down, placed three or four years ago, this ball basically no one will think that C Ronaldo can not play.
There is also a very classic shot, C Ronaldo continued to fake shots past two opponents, and then the left foot attack shot shot a shot with average strength and angle, and C Ronaldo's fatigue in this game was clearly seen. Or that example, if it had been a few years ago, Ronaldo would have either accelerated away from the defender and then directly attacked the goal at the moment of the straight plug, or he could have completed a very high-quality shot after swinging past the opponent. But now he can't do it.
The decline in the president's physical fitness is absolutely inseparable from age, but we have more reason to believe that the fatigue of this game is more due to the excessive consumption of the previous game. In the last Premier League game, Ronaldo not only played a full 90 minutes, but even in the final stage of the game, he still chased back to participate in the defense at full speed, he hoped to express that he could meet the new coach's high pressure tactics, so he desperately went to participate in the defense, but forgot the fact that he was really 36 years old.
Perhaps we can say that the old C Ronaldo can still eat, and the old C Ronaldo can also rely on his more experience to score goals, but it is impossible for him to play 90 minutes like he did when he was young, not to mention that he is still playing against the most intense Premier League. I have to sigh that the era of peerless double pride led by Merrow has officially begun to come to an end, and our youth is the same.
As the saying goes, no one will always be 18, there will always be 18, haaland and Mbappe and others will gradually become the protagonists of the headlines, the record left by Mero will also be left to them to break, and all we can do is to enjoy them playing one less game.
