At 4:00 a.m. Beijing time on February 5, the fourth round of the English FA Cup ushered in a focus battle: the Premier League giants led by the greatest player of this era, Ronaldo, hosted the Championship team Middlesbrough.
In the battle, Manchester United started with Ronnick's recent 4231 formation, which can also be regarded as the 433 he said, C Ronaldo as a center forward, B Fei played the front, two full-back Rashford and Sancho, double back Pogba, Scott McTominay, four defenders Luke Shaw, Maguire, Varane, Darlot, goalkeeper Henderson. The personnel adjustment is not small, the scandal-ridden Greenwood has stopped training and playing, Pogba has returned from injury, and the main goalkeeper has changed from De Gea to Henderson. This set of starts is also the strongest squad for Manchester United at present, and it seems that Lonnick is running for the FA Cup.
Middlesbrough started 352, with Barlogon and Sperra forming a double striker.
The total value of Manchester United's starting eleven is as high as 570 million euros, and the total value of Middlesbrough's starting eleven is only 30.1 million euros, which is too much higher than their opponents in terms of card strength.
But there is no weak team in the Premier League, it seems that the Championship does not have it, and this game, for Manchester United, is not easy.
After the game began, the home game, the famous players gathered, the overall strength of manchester United naturally launched a wild attack. In the 2nd minute, Sancho's hanging shot from the edge of the penalty area hit the crossbar and popped up, and B Fei followed up with a shot that went high again.
In the 6th minute, Luke Shaw's cross from the left was met by Ronaldo's barbed shot, which was confiscated by the opposing goalkeeper.
In the 11th minute, Dalot crossed and Ronaldo's shot was confiscated by the opposing goalkeeper.
In the 17th minute, United's corner kick was driven and Maguire's header went high over the crossbar.
In the 19th minute, Pogba was knocked down by a Middlesbrough player in the penalty area, the referee awarded a penalty, C Ronaldo took the penalty, but it was deflected, missing a good opportunity to take the lead.
February 5, 2022, is the 37th birthday of C Luo, but the birthday star is a little back!
In the 25th minute, B Fei's long pass, the left side of Sancho's penalty area from a small angle, the ball was scored! United lead Middlesbrough 1-0.
In the 34th minute, United counter-attacked, and Ronaldo's shot was saved by the opposing goalkeeper.
In the final moments of the first half, Ronaldo's cross was met and B Fei's header was confiscated.
In the 64th minute, Middlesbrough equalised. Watermore crossed and Crooks scored. The replay showed that Water moore was crossed from the back of a handball, but the referee ruled the goal valid.
The regular time of 90 minutes arrived, and the two sides drew 1:1 and entered extra time. Both sides achieved nothing in extra time, and it was difficult to win or lose, so they entered a brutal penalty shootout! This time C Ronaldo did not lose a penalty, but everyone is not bad, the first 7 rounds have entered, to the 8th round, Middlesbrough got Pertil to shoot the shot, Manchester United's 19-year-old Ilanga lost the penalty, the game is finally over, out of Manchester United!
C Luo's birthday for a few days can be described as depressed! And the main players can't even win a championship mid-range team at home, should Manchester United consider replacing the starting center?
