Another desperate game for magic fans... Manchester United sit at Old Trafford like sleepwalking, losing 1-0 to Wolves. Ronnick lost for the first time since taking over.
The Theatre of Dreams became a stadium for rivals to fulfill their dreams, the first time Wolves beat Manchester United away from home in Premier League history and the first time since 1980 that the team had taken away three points at the Theatre of Dreams.
Even more embarrassing than the 1-0 loss, United were almost completely suppressed, with Wolves scoring 15 shots on goal in the first half, the highest number of Premier League aways in the first half at Old Trafford in the last six seasons. United had just four shots on goal in the first half.
Technical statistics show that Wolves shot 6 of 19 shots on target, Manchester United only had 9 shots on goal and 2 shots on target, corner kicks 3-8, Manchester United not only lost the result, but also lost the process and scene. The outlook for this season is hard to be optimistic about.
With Maguire injured and Victory Lindelof still isolated, United started with Phil Jones, a centre-back who has not played in the first team for nearly two years. The last time Jones played for the Red Devils was on January 26, 2020, a full 709 days.
After Maguire missed the game and B Fee was placed on the bench, Ronaldo put on the Manchester United captain's armband. This is only the second time in CR7's career that he has captained Manchester United, the last time on 29 March 2008.
Coach Ronnick has played a 4-2-2-2 formation in several consecutive games, but the player's performance in this game is the worst game since Ronnick took office.
The First Half Manchester United scene was too passive, Wolves took turns to shoot from the attacking line, and De Gea was too busy to resist.
Jones sent a key break, and Old Trafford sounded the long-lost Jones Song.
Manchester United in the second half successively replaced B Fee, Rashford, Erlanga, in the 67th minute, Nemanja Matic received the ball outside the boundary, the bottom line inverted triangle cross, B Fee wrapped up and hit the crossbar to pop up.
To be honest, I can't figure out why Matic did the wingers do the work of a winger? Players can certainly be flexible in their position on the pitch, but doesn't everyone have a clear understanding of their responsibilities?
In the 68th minute, B Fei took a free kick in front of the field, and C Ronaldo grabbed the point to score, but the offside was first. A minute later, Ronaldo's left-footed shot deflected off the line. This is one of the few time periods when United have an offensive advantage.
When United tried to advance the ball, the defence went wrong. In the 82nd minute, Traore's cross from the right was pushed out by Jones, Moutinho's arc of the penalty area was undefended, and a low shot jumped into the corner, and United fell behind 0-1.
In the last minute of stoppage time, Jones risked a head injury to snatch the ball from the opponent's feet to get a free kick for United.
But B Fee's free-kick was saved by Wolves goalkeeper Jose, and United won 0-1 at home to rival Dream Theatre for its first 42-year win.
Bad results, bad processes, bad rankings.
United have lost six games after 19 rounds, tying the number of defeats in last season's 38 Premier League games. The specific record is only 9 wins, 4 draws and 6 losses, 22 points behind the top of the list, 4 points behind the 4th place, and temporarily ranked 7th.
Lonnick said after the game: "Look at today's performance, if I say we're 100% going to be in the top four, I don't know if the fans will believe it. We didn't do a good job both individually and as a team, and we still have quite a bit of work to do. ”
The players of Manchester United on the field, in addition to de Gea and Phil Jones, may not be able to select a third player to score a passing score.
