2-1!6战狂轰7球,水货刷爆纪录,豪取4连胜,曼联剑指欧冠
With the return of injured players, Manchester United has finally seen signs of recovery, winning the last three rounds of the Premier League and has reached the top 6 of the table. But the race for top four in the Premier League is fierce and the Reds will have to win more to secure a Champions League place next season and then expect their rivals to make mistakes. This weekend, the 25th round of the Premier League kicks off, and Manchester United travel to face promoted Luton Town, who are just one point above the relegation zone and still struggling with relegation. Although Fernandes and Garnacho missed back-to-back chances, Hojlen scored twice as Manchester United narrowly beat their opponents 2-1 to usher in a fourth straight league win and five points from the Champions League zone.
Coming to the opponent's home stadium, Ten Hag continued to use the 4-2-3-1 system, with the in-form Onana continuing to be the starting goalkeeper, Luke Shaw, Harry Maguire, Raphael Varane and Diogo Dalot forming the defence, Casemiro and the 18-year-old Maynu forming a double midfield, B Fernandes playing as the front midfielder, Rashford and Garnacho on the wings, and Hojlen as a single arrow.
Just 40 seconds into the game, Casemiro cleared the ball with a big foot, Amari Bale made a mistake in the clearance, Hojlen smiled and beat Kaminski before slotting home to give United a 1-0 lead. According to statistics, at the age of 21 years and 14 days, Hojlen became the youngest player in the history of the Premier League to score in six consecutive rounds, completely taking off the parallel hat.
With a goal in hand, Manchester United took advantage of the victory to chase down. In the 4th minute, Garnacho took the ball on the right side and cut it cross, Rashford met the ball and shot hard, and Kaminski saved the ball with one palm. The following corner, B Fee's cross was cleared, Garnacho volleyed on the penalty line, Hojlen was in a hurry, blocked with his chest in front of the goal, sent the ball into the net, and completed a brace, Manchester United scored two goals in a row early, and got off to a dream start.
However, 7 minutes later, Luton Town pulled one back: Manchester United veteran Chen Dayi advanced with the ball on the left side, turned and volleyed on Varane in the penalty area, and flew towards the goal, Onana abandoned the goal and collided with Luke Shaw, Carlton Morris smiled and scored with a header from close range, and the score became 1-2!
In the 31st minute, Maguire made a mistake in the backfield and almost made a big mistake, Barkley broke the ball and passed diagonally, Woodrow pushed it from a small angle, but fortunately Varane chased back to block. In the 36th minute, Garnacho's dribbling was cut off, and Carlton Morris fired a powerful shot from outside the box that went past Varane's goal, but fortunately it missed the right post of the goal.
In the 39th minute, there was a controversial penalty on the field, Casemiro stopped the ball too much and was broken, and put down Barkley with his back, and the referee showed mercy and did not show a second yellow card. In stoppage time, Garnacho made a mistake in returning the pass to give a gift, and Doughty cut inside from the left and fired a powerful shot into the near corner, grazing the post and going out of bounds, and was almost equalised by the whistle.
Coming back in the second half, Manchester United continued to attack. In the 49th minute, Onana made a long pass with a big foot, Dalot suddenly attacked, and the ball in the penalty area was slightly larger, which was destroyed by Kaminski's attack and failed to convert it into a goal. In the 57th minute, Rashford ran long with the ball and shot hard from the edge of the penalty area, which was saved by Kaminski again.
In the 60th minute, Garnacho's diagonal pass from the right was just right, B Fei single-handedly passed the goalkeeper of Luton, and shot with his feet in the face of the empty goal, but was blocked by Lokonga who struggled to chase back and tackle.
In the 68th minute, Marcus Rashford went straight to the right place, and Garnacho thought about life single-handedly, and his adjusted shot was blocked by Lokonga, missing another good opportunity. As Ronaldo's number one fan, Garnacho didn't score this time, and he was a little sorry for his idol.
In the 78th minute, Rashford made the ball on the right, Garnacho knocked back the triangle, and Hojlen pushed in front of the goal, but was still blocked by Kaminsky with his body. In the 95th minute, Ross Barkley received a cross from a corner and hit the crossbar with a header, and Manchester United narrowly missed the draw.
Manchester United held on to a 2-1 scoreline to seal a season double against Luton Town, as well as a fourth straight Premier League win and five points clear of fourth-placed Villa, retaining their hopes of Champions League qualification.
