Manchester United are unlucky today. They besieged the Crystal Palace to no avail, and De Bruyne was sent off. The hope of winning this game is getting slimmer. Nevertheless, they are still trying their best to find offensive opportunities. They want to seize the final time to win the game and get the 13 consecutive victories they want!
But the disaster was not alone. In the 4th minute of the game, Van Persie sprained his right foot accidentally when landing, and fell down.
Manchester United doctors hurriedly came to inspect Van Persie, Van Persie waved anxiously: "Take me off the field and let the game continue!"
It's this time, Van Persie still hopes that he can race against the clock at the last moment and make every effort to get a goal.
After inspection, the team doctor found that Van Persie was not seriously injured, and there was no problem for a two-day break, but this game could not be maintained.
However, Manchester United have been sent off De Braun, Van Persie was injured due to injuries, and all three substitutions were used up. This left Manchester United with only 9 players on the field. At the last moment of the game, Manchester United players were still desperate Want to win the game, push up.
Crystal Palace coach Paul Price is very conservative in this game. If he can let go in the final stage, with the current situation of Manchester United, Crystal Palace may not be able to beat Manchester United by surprise. Just fine.
Until the referee blew the whistle of the end of the game, the players on both sides still could not break the opponent's goal, and the game ended with 0 to 0.
After the game, Jin Taige was very disappointed. He was thinking of being able to win 13 straight games, and then to create the history of Manchester United. Then, in the next game, he will have 14 straight games and leave his name in the history of the Premier League. However, this game left him empty-handed, not only did not win, but also damaged two generals.
De Blaunet was sent off with a red card and was suspended for the next game. He missed the League Cup final with Manchester City and Van Persie had to recuperate because of a sprained ankle. Although the injury was not serious, three days later he played against Olympiacos. He must not be able to participate in the competition.
The players were also frustrated because they failed to win 13 straight games.
On February 22, after Manchester United played against Crystal Palace, Manchester United players immediately returned to Manchester.
On February 23, Jintaige asked the team members to perform simple restorative training and video tactics learning, so that everyone can recover as much energy as possible.
On February 24, Manchester United flew to the Greek capital, Athens, and checked into the hotel in the Piraeus harbour area near Athens, ready to challenge Olympiacos.
Olympiacos' home is Carrezakis Stadium, this stadium can accommodate about 33,000 fans, and the atmosphere of the game is very warm. At the beginning of the season, the Daily Telegraph did an analysis through big data technology and selected the "Devil's Home" of international football. They analyzed each team's home performance, stadium size, fan base, game atmosphere, and other aspects, and finally selected the top ten "devil homes." The top three are Istanbul Stadium, West Stadium and Candy Box Stadium. Olympiacos' Carrezakis Stadium is seventh. It can be seen that this stadium is absolutely extraordinary, and Kintag's team will certainly encounter many difficulties.
On the morning of February 25, Manchester United players came to the Carrezakis Stadium for adaptive training. But during training, Jin Taige was very worried. He found that the overall condition of Manchester United players today is extremely poor, especially the team's starting main lineup, which makes Jintaige a headache.
A few days ago, the team just played away from Crystal Palace in London. In that game, Manchester United were very hard and wanted to win. After being sent off by De Braun and van Persie was injured, Manchester United played 9-11. The offensive remains unabated. After such a desperate game, all Manchester United players were exhausted, and there were only two days between the two games, and the fatigue of long-distance travel by plane. The players are now at the end of the crossbow.
Seeing the performance of the players, Scholes called Kintag aside: "Captain, I suggest rotating some of the main players in this game."
"Rotating player" Jin Taige muttered.
Scholes pointed to the players who warmed up on the field: "Of the players who started in the last game, the most physically exhausted were wingers. Full-back Alonso and Rafael, and full-back Mach Reis and Marshall, the four of them repeatedly sprinted and attacked in the last game. The physical exhaustion was the most serious and Rooney's physical decline was also very serious. Activities within it, it is best to also rotate. "
Kintag frowned: "If so, most of the main lineups have to be replaced. Against Olympiacos with the current team's replacement lineup, it is really difficult to win."
Scholes looked at the players warming up on the field: "If these players with insufficient physical fitness and poor condition are on the stage, this game will certainly be difficult to play."
Scholes originally wanted to say "difficult to win," but when it came to his lips, he changed it to "difficult to fight."
After Jintaige groaned for a long time, he raised his head, and UU read the book www.uukanshu.com, his eyebrows were twisted into a scruff: "Paul, I also know that they are in a poor state, but I really can't help it, this Champions League knockout is crucial, I have to play my best card and let them fight again. It doesn't matter if they give them three days of rest after the game to recover their strength. Van Persie is missing due to injury in this game. Our main lineup is already incomplete. I will rotate the other players, and the result of the game is really not optimistic. "
Seeing that Jintaige was so firm, Scholes couldn't say anything more. He nodded to Jintaige: "Captain, I understand what you mean, I will try my best to improve their status and help them kick well the match of."
Having said that, Scholes came to the side of the court to carefully guide the team and help Manchester United players adjust their status.
Gintag looked at Scholes's back, he was very uncomfortable. He understands that Scholes' proposal justified makes sense. At present, Manchester United's first team players have very poor physical fitness and condition. It must be extremely difficult to play in the afternoon. If some substitute players are replaced, it may have a good effect. However, this game is too important for Kingtag. He would rather use the main players in poor condition than let the substitute players go for a fight.
I have missed a 13-game winning streak, so this time to qualify for the Champions League, I definitely cannot afford to lose!
