At 20:30 Beijing time on February 12, a match in the 25th round of the Premier League began to compete, and Manchester United faced Southampton at home. Manchester United's record in the league is relatively poor, after playing 23 league games, only 11 games have been won and 6 have been lost, which is a relatively large gap with the top 3 teams, and the competition for 4th place is the most realistic goal of Manchester United. Manchester United have suffered successive setbacks in the last two rounds of the league, first being eliminated by the Championship team in the FA Cup, and then returning to the league to face the bottom team and only winning a draw. Longnick's coaching ability has therefore been widely questioned. Lonnick himself was very unhappy with the efficiency of the players' goals. Obviously, there are a lot of problems in Manchester United's mess right now. This time Manchester United are playing Southampton. The two sides met in the second round, when United only got a draw. This time, although Manchester United played at home, it still played a draw.
United line up a 4231 formation in this game. De Gea served as the starting goalkeeper. Luke Shaw, Maguire, Varane and Dalot are paired at 4 backs. McTominay and Pogba form a double back. Marcus Rashford, Bruno Fernandez and Sancho joined forces. C Ronaldo is at the front. Erlanga, Jesse Lingard, Wan-Bissaka, Lindelof and Henderson sit on the bench.
Shortly after the start of the game, Ronaldo had a great opportunity, although he passed the goalkeeper, but the shooting power was a little lighter, and he was released in front of the goal of the player who returned to the defense. United scored in the 20th minute, with Sancho scoring and Assisting Rashford. However, for this Manchester United team, a one-goal lead is not safe. United have been looking for a second goal but have always failed to do so. Pogba scored a goal and was awarded offside. Shortly after the start of the second half, The United backline slipped through and Che Adams equalised with a low shot. The game was more open after that, and both sides had very good chances, but they never scored again. The final score was set at 1-1, and United conceded two more points. United's prospects for a race for four have become more pessimistic. At this pace, Arsenal and Tottenham Behind them are more likely than Manchester United to reach the top four.
The best of United's performances was undoubtedly Sancho, who scored a crucial goal to score 7.4 points. United's number one star, Ronaldo, performed unsatisfactorily, he only had 2 shots on goal, although all shots were on target, but failed to score, 4 attempts were successful 2 times, only 6.9 points. Ronaldo has scored 0 goals in 6 consecutive games, falling sharply, suffering the longest goal drought in 13 years, and he is in the most miserable situation in 13 years. Since Lonnick has been in charge of Manchester United, the team has averaged 1.4 goals per game in the Premier League, which is the lowest in premier league history, and he has set a record of shame in team history. Ronnick sucked.
