Old Trafford suddenly erupted in cheers, and fans cheered for David De Gea's wonderful save. Manchester United got a chance to counterattack. After Jesse Lingard received the ball in the midfield, he immediately moved forward like a whirlwind. His eyes were firm, and he had only one goal in mind-to send the ball to his teammates and create a chance to score.
At this moment, a tall figure appeared in the penalty area. He was Erling Haaland, who had just come on as a substitute. Erling Haaland is strong and like an iron tower. His shoulders are broad, his muscles are well-defined, and every muscle seems to contain infinite power. His height advantage makes him stand out in the penalty area, bringing great pressure to Manchester City's defenders.
Erling Haaland is not only strong, but also incredibly fast. He is like a high-speed sports car, and he instantly throws off Manchester City's defenders. His steps are light and powerful, and every step is full of explosive power. Before receiving Lingard's pass, he was fully prepared and waiting for the opportunity to come.
When Jesse Lingard's pass came, Erling Haaland reacted quickly. With his excellent running position, he accurately judged the landing point of the ball. He jumped high and used his strong body to squeeze out the defense of Manchester City center back Aymeric Laporte. In the face of Erling Haaland's powerful strength, Aymeric Laporte seemed to have no power to fight back and could only watch Erling Haaland control the ball helplessly. Another central defender John Stones also came to assist, but in the face of Erling Haaland's strong physical fitness, he also seemed to have few options.
Erling Haaland controlled the ball without any hesitation. His eyes revealed a firm determination, and he knew this was a great opportunity. He quickly adjusted his pace and then kicked the ball. The shot was powerful and the ball flew towards Manchester City's goal like lightning.
Manchester City goalkeeper Edson Santana made a desperate save, but Erling Haaland's shot was too powerful and the angle was extremely tricky. The ball went into the net again! 4:2! Manchester United extended their lead to two goals!
When the referee announced that the goal was valid, Erling Haaland waved his fist vigorously, showing his strength and determination to the whole audience. Then, he ran quickly to the sidelines, his steps were firm and powerful, and every step seemed to step on the hearts of the fans. At this time, the fans in the stands had fallen into madness. They stood up, waving scarves and flags in their hands, and shouted Erling Haaland's name loudly. Their faces were filled with excitement and joy, and their eyes were shining with excitement. The cheers of the fans were like waves, one after another, as if to drown the entire stadium.
After Erling Haaland came to the sidelines, he knelt on his knees and slid for a distance. His eyes were full of gratitude and excitement, and he expressed his respect and gratitude to the fans. Then, Erling Haaland stood up, opened his arms again, and shared the joy of victory with the fans. His face was full of smiles, which was a kind of joy and pride from the heart. The fans also responded to Erling Haaland's enthusiasm. They shouted Erling Haaland's name, and the sound resounded throughout the stadium.
In the 83rd minute, Manchester United made the last substitution adjustment, replacing Cody Gakpo, who scored the go-ahead goal, with midfielder Aurelien Tsoumeni. When the fourth official raised the substitution card, indicating that Cody Gakpo was about to be replaced, the eyes of the fans in the stadium were all focused on this hero.
Cody Gakpo slowly stopped running, and a trace of fatigue appeared on his face, but more of satisfaction and pride. He looked around the stadium, as if he was bidding a final farewell to the green field where he had fought. He took a deep breath and felt the warm atmosphere of Old Trafford that belonged to him at this moment.
Cody Gakpo began to walk slowly to the sidelines, and every step seemed so steady. His teammates came up to him, hugged him, high-fived him, and congratulated and respected him. They knew that Cody Gakpo played a vital role in this game, and his efforts and hard work brought great advantages to the team.
As Cody Gakpo walked, he waved to the fans in the stands. The fans immediately responded to him with warm applause and cheers. The applause was as loud as thunder, as if expressing gratitude and praise for Cody Gakpo. Cody Gakpo's heart was full of emotion, and he knew that these applause were the best reward for him.
When Cody Gakpo walked to the sidelines, head coach Mourinho also came up and gave himA warm hug. Mourinho whispered encouraging words in his ear, praising his outstanding performance. Cody Gakpo smiled and nodded, he felt the trust and support of the head coach.
Cody Gakpo sat on the bench, his eyes still fixed on the court. He watched his teammates continue to fight on the court, his heart full of expectations. He knew that the game was not over yet, and the team needed to continue to work hard to ensure victory. At this time, the applause of the fans in the audience did not stop. They expressed their respect and love for Cody Gakpo in this way.
After Cody Gakpo was replaced, Aurelien Chuameni came on the court. His appearance was like a boulder thrown into the lake, instantly stirring up thousands of waves.
Aurelien Chuameni stepped into the court with a firm step, his eyes revealing a strong fighting spirit and determination. From the moment he stepped onto the green field, he set his sights on Kevin De Bruyne, the core midfielder of Manchester City. Kevin De Bruyne, the magician on the football field, has always been the engine of Manchester City's offense with his superb passing skills and excellent overall view. However, the arrival of Aurelien Tsoumeni made him feel unprecedented pressure.
With his strong body and excellent defensive awareness, Aurelien Tsoumeni quickly launched a high-intensity press against Kevin De Bruyne. He was like a ferocious cheetah, staring closely at his prey. Whenever Kevin De Bruyne received the ball, Tsoumeni would quickly approach and use his physical confrontation to interfere with his passing and control of the ball. Kevin De Bruyne tried to get rid of Aurelien Tsoumeni's defense, but found that the young midfielder was extremely tenacious. No matter how he changed direction or faked, Aurelien Tsoumeni stayed close to him and did not give him any easy chance to handle the ball.
At the same time, Scott McTominay was also doing his best to closely guard Ilkay Gundogan. As an important hub in Manchester City's midfield, Ilkay Gundogan's passing and organizing abilities are also not to be underestimated. Scott McTominay knew that his task was arduous, and he followed Ilkay Gundogan closely, not giving the other side any breathing space. Whenever Ilkay Gundogan tried to receive or pass the ball, Scott McTominay would block his route with his body, or disrupt his pass with an aggressive fight.
Under the double attack of Aurelien Tsoumeni and Scott McTominay, Manchester City's traditional midfield system had problems. The originally smooth passing line was cut off, and the rhythm of the attack was disrupted. Kevin De Bruyne and Ilkay Gundogan could not organize the attack as easily as usual, and other Manchester City players began to become impatient. Their passes were erroneous, and the attack became disorganized.
The audience at Old Trafford saw this scene and burst into warm cheers. They cheered for the tenacious defense of Manchester United players and saw the hope of victory for the team. Manchester United players were encouraged and they implemented the defensive strategy more firmly, not giving Manchester City any chance to turn over.
However, Manchester City is a strong team after all, and they will not be defeated easily. After a brief chaos, they began to adjust their tactics. When Kevin De Bruyne and Ilkay Gundogan were strongly disturbed, David Silva stood up and reorganized an effective attack.
Unknowingly, time came to the last moment of the whole game. The fourth official raised a sign to indicate that the game was overtime for eight minutes. In these last few minutes, Manchester City, who was two goals behind, launched a crazy siege like an angry lion.
The eyes of Manchester City players were burning with unyielding flames. They knew that the situation was serious at the moment, but their fighting spirit was getting stronger. Kevin De Bruyne, the midfield master, kept waving his arms and directing his teammates' offensive direction. Ilkay Gundogan was also actively running, looking for space to pass the ball. Raheem Sterling was like a flash of lightning, frequently breaking through the wing, trying to tear open Manchester United's defense. Sergio Aguero and Gabriel Jesus, the two forwards, kept running in the penalty area, putting huge pressure on Manchester United's defense.
Manchester City's attack came in waves like a tide. Their passes were fast and accurate, and they cooperated well. Kevin De Bruyne's penetrating pass instantly threw Manchester United's defense into chaos. After receiving the ball, Raheem Sterling quickly cut inside and shot. But Manchester United's defenders reacted quickly and blocked his shooting angle in time, and RuudBen Dias blocked the ball out of the baseline.
Manchester City got a corner kick opportunity, and Kevin De Bruyne took the corner kick himself. The ball flew high into Manchester United's penalty area, and Sergio Aguero and Gabriel Jesus jumped high at the same time to compete for the header. However, Manchester United's central defender combination Harry Maguire and Ruben Dias were not afraid. They stuck closely to Manchester City's striker and tried to head the ball out of the penalty area.
Manchester City continued to attack, and they kept passing and controlling in Manchester United's half, trying to find flaws. But Manchester United's players showed a tenacious defensive will at this time.
The two central defenders, Harry Maguire and Ruben Dias, like a solid wall, firmly defended the defense line. With their excellent physical confrontation ability and defensive awareness, they resolved Manchester City's attack again and again. Jesse Lingard in the midfield and Aurelien Tsoumeni, who just came on as a substitute, have retreated to the top of the penalty area. Dani Olmo, Scott McTominay, and Jamal Musiala, who supported the midfield from the forward line, also retreated to their own half and actively participated in the defense. They kept running and pressing, not giving Manchester City players the opportunity to pass the ball easily.
In Manchester City's half, there was a red figure left, that is Erling Haaland.
Erling Haaland actively ran in Manchester City's half, his steps were powerful and firm. Every step was like a drumbeat on the battlefield, full of rhythm and power. His figure shuttled across the court, constantly changing positions, keeping Manchester City's defense line in a tense state.
John Stones, Aymeric Laporte and other Manchester City defenders had to devote some of their energy to pay attention to Erling Haaland's movements. They knew that once this tall and strong striker got the chance, he would be like a cannonball, posing a fatal threat to their goal. Erling Haaland's existence was like a sword of Damocles hanging over their heads, making them dare not relax at all.
