In the Champions League quarter-finals, Atletico Madrid played manchester United at home, and since both teams were not particularly good in the league this season, they were eager to get a victory in the Champions League when facing each other to boost morale, but in the end they ended in a 1-1 draw at home to shake hands and make peace. Judging from the results, Atletico Madrid is actually not so easy to accept, in addition to scoring 1 goal in the whole game, they also hit the goal frame twice, and have a good chance to win at home. For Manchester United, although the team did not get a victory and the away goal did not make more sense, but returning home with a draw was not an unacceptable result.
A brief review of this game, Manchester United's starting list, Fred started with a partner Pogba, coupled with the midfield composed of B fees, the defensive strength has indeed declined, the trident combination of Sancho, Rashford and C Ronaldo in the front court is relatively stable, manchester United accounted for 63% of the data in the whole game, but the number of shots on goal was only 7, and the young Player Elanga scored 1 goal with only 1 shot after being replaced by Ronnick 80 minutes, and he was in very good shape. Atletico, on the other hand, were able to get 13 shots on goal through aggressive and effective pressing, and if they hadn't been unlucky, they would have won a game. From the perspective of the whole game, the problems of both teams are more obvious, and they have not reached the standard of the top teams in the Champions League.
Atletico's problems are more obvious, the absence of many players in the team has made Simeone stretched in terms of platooning, and the team's most reliant high pressing has been unable to last 90 minutes or even 75 minutes. While the United side was suppressed for most of the first half, Lonnick's bold substitution played a miracle effect, and Erlanga's substitute score of 1 goal undoubtedly won him more opportunities at Manchester United, and may even suppress Marcus Rashford, whose progress is not obvious enough, to get more playing time. Marcus Rashford's performance in recent times has been very erratic, perhaps due to off-field factors that have dampened attention.
There is also a noteworthy substitution idea, in the case that the team can not open the situation, Lonnick is to replace Pogba, replaced by Nemanja Matic, leaving B fee on the field. Although B Fei sent a sharp assist in the last minute, the play of the whole game was actually very average, and the high pressing against Atletico was severely limited, and more opportunities could only be created if the opponent's physical fitness declined. However, in Lonnick's substitution ideas, it can be clearly seen that although they are all very key players in the midfield, the current status of B Fee in the team is higher than that of Pogba, even if Pogba is replaced after showing dissatisfaction, it cannot change this situation.
Finally, let's talk about the problem of C Ronaldo, this game C Ronaldo's post-match score is not high, facing his favorite opponent, C Ronaldo has not been able to score goals, it seems that it is really not good. However, C Ronaldo actually contributed a lot of data in this game that cannot be seen, such as withdrawing from the reception, competing for the header in midfield, and becoming the fulcrum of the team, all of which are completed by C Ronaldo, and these cannot be reflected in the data. Maybe C Ronaldo has not played so vigorously, but he still completed most of his tasks and completed it very well. However, the fans expect much more from him.
