In the early morning of April 3, Beijing time, the 31st round of the Premier League ended, Manchester United sat at home at Old Trafford and was forced to draw 1:1 by the visiting Leicester City, with only 1 win in the last 6 rounds, and the league ranking was still ranked sixth. At the end of this campaign, Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur, who have one less game, have 51 points, which is 3 points away from Arsenal, which is fourth and has two games less, and is gradually moving away from the Champions League zone.
Before this game, Manchester United's top scorer C Ronaldo was absent due to flu symptoms. Manager Ronnick made a bold change of formation, pushing midfielder B. Fernandez to the centre position, while Pogba replaced the Portugal international in his original forward position. In addition, two young talents, Ilanga and Sancho, acted as B Fee's deputies. However, throughout the game, United shot the same number of shots as Leicester City, with the Red Devils only slightly ahead in the right shot, possession and pass success rate. The data shows that since the return of Ronaldo to Manchester United, a total of 6 Premier League games have not started, and Manchester United has achieved a record of 5 draws and 1 loss. Some fans quipped: "In the game where Cristiano Ronaldo did not start, Manchester United only lost one game! ”
Obviously, Ronaldo should not be the culprit of United's downturn, mainly because of the chaotic tactical arrangement, the players have not been able to perform their respective duties, and the manager's intentions are difficult to implement. Previously, there was Captain Maguire in the penalty area single (pull) defense (down) Luke Shaw, yesterday's game again had a strange scene of Ilanga blocking (shoveling) intercepting (pouring) Rashford. Originally, Rashford passed the defensive Amaté and Chowdhury in the 95th minute with his personal ability, and when the England striker was about to get up to hit the goal against Schmeichel, Ilanga "just in time" appeared to intercept and tripped him to the ground. The opportunity to kill was snuffed out, which made Rashford very angry, and he had no choice but to beat the turf with both hands to vent.
For the accident of injury time, it caused a lot of complaining after the game. British media commented bluntly: "If it were not for Ilanga, Rashford would have been a penalty even if he did not score in the end. Nothing could give a better overview of Manchester United this season, a magical club! Fans also joked: Ilanga should be sent off with a red card!
