Next, I will give the time to my colleague Gary Lineker, who will introduce Huddersfield's starting lineup. "Gary Neville said, and the director of Sky TV in England gave the camera to Gary Lineker.

"Dear audience friends, let's turn our attention to the Huddersfield team that came to Old Trafford to challenge Manchester United today. Although this team may be slightly inferior in strength and fame, they have shown tenacious fighting spirit and fighting spirit in the past games this season. They are currently ranked 13th in the Premier League and have completed the relegation task ahead of schedule.

First, let's take a look at Huddersfield's goalkeeper: Ben Hammer, a local player born in Taunton, England, has the biggest advantage of his extremely quick reaction, being able to make judgments in an instant, and successfully resolving the opponent's forward's sudden shots many times; he is extremely focused on the goal line and rarely makes mistakes due to external interference. In the 31 Premier League games that have passed this season, he is like the team's last solid line of defense, and has used wonderful saves countless times to resolve crises for the team. Today, when facing such a strong attacking line as Manchester United, his quick reaction ability may become the team's life-saving straw.

However, Ben Hammer also has a more obvious disadvantage, that is, there are occasional unstable situations when dealing with high balls. Harry Maguire, Ruben Dias, Erling Haaland, who started for Manchester United, and Romelu Lukaku, who was on the bench, are all players who are good at high-altitude bombing, which may become a hidden danger. "Gary Lineker, who was born as a player, is worthy of being a representative of the professional school in the European commentary world. His commentary style is as accurate, in place, and to the point as always.

"On the back line, the captain Tommy Smith, as a right back, has abundant physical strength and a positive defensive attitude, and has a strong ability to run back and forth; and his crosses are also of a certain quality, which can provide some support for the team's offense, which is his advantage. In the game, he will spare no effort to run, whether it is defending the breakthrough of the opponent's winger or participating in the team's offense, he can play his role. But his disadvantage is that there are often some problems when he chooses his position in defense. I saw that on the Manchester United side, coach Mourinho arranged the experienced Edinson Cavani to play against him, and he should have done special research.

Terence Kongolo, a Dutch international, appeared at the left back position. This player has excellent defensive awareness and positional sense. He can always appear in key positions at the right time to make effective interceptions and substitutions. At the same time, his footwork is also relatively delicate and can participate in the team's offensive organization. However, his speed may not be particularly fast, and he often struggles when facing speed wingers. He will be under great pressure in this game. Among Manchester United's starting players, whether it is Erling Haaland and Jamal Musiala on the front line, or Ashraf Hakimi and Jude Bellingham who like to assist in the midfield, they are all fast players.

Matthias Jorgensen and C. Schindler, the two central defenders, form a solid barrier in the middle of the team.

Huddersfield defender Jorgensen, nicknamed "Zanka", is a right center back, and his biggest advantage is his strong body. When defending high balls, he can take advantage of his height and strength. And he is not afraid of defensive confrontations, which can put a lot of pressure on the opponent's forwards. But his turning speed is relatively slow, which may be used by some flexible forwards.

German C. Schindler is the core of Huddersfield's defense. As a left center back, his rich experience is his outstanding advantage. He can accurately judge the opponent's offensive line with his experience and block and steal in time. His leadership ability also plays an important role in the back line. Of course, his physical fitness may become a problem, and he may be physically exhausted in long games.

In the midfield, J. Hogg, as the core of the midfield, has advantages in his overall view and passing ability. He can control the rhythm of the game well and make reasonable arrangements for the team's offense. His passing accuracy is also relatively high, and he can accurately find his teammates. But his physical fitness is relatively weak, and when facing some physically strong midfielders, he may be at a disadvantage in the confrontation.

Aaron Moi, as a right midfielder, has excellent skills and a certain ability to break through. He can create many threatening offensive opportunities on the wing and deliver ammunition to the striker. But his defensive contribution is relatively small, which may cause some loopholes in the team's right defense.

J. Bacuna, as a left midfielder, has the advantageHe is tenacious and aggressive. His interception and steal in the midfield are very fierce, which can effectively disrupt the opponent's attack. But his offensive organization ability is relatively limited, and he needs to improve in creating offensive opportunities for the team.

Finally, let's take a look at Huddersfield's forward combination.

As a right forward, Peng Qiyong has extremely fast speed and flexible running. He can use his speed advantage to break through the opponent's defense and create shooting opportunities for the team. But his shooting accuracy may not be particularly high, and he still lacks in grasping some key opportunities.

Kachunga, the striker, has a strong body and excellent shooting skills. He is very good at grabbing points and seizing opportunities in the penalty area. But his movement speed is relatively slow, and he may not be able to return to defense in time when facing the opponent's fast counterattack.

A. Diakab, as a left forward, has excellent dribbling skills and creativity. He can create some threatening offensive opportunities on the wing, bringing more vitality to the team's offense. But his physical confrontation ability is weak, and he may suffer when facing the opponent's tough defense.

Although Huddersfield may not be as strong as Manchester United, their lineup also has its own characteristics and advantages. They will definitely go all out in the game and challenge the powerful Manchester United with tenacious fighting spirit and excellent teamwork. Let us look forward to Huddersfield bringing us a wonderful performance in today's game. "As soon as Gary Lineker finished speaking, the players of both sides had already started to enter the field, and the director gave the camera to the field in time.

With the referee's whistle, the game officially began.

Manchester United took the lead and they showed a strong desire to attack from the beginning. Midfielder Jude Bellingham passed the ball to Marco Verratti, who, a skilled midfielder, caught the ball steadily. He squinted his eyes slightly, his brain worked rapidly, and he quickly judged the situation on the field. After a slight adjustment, Marco Verratti passed the ball to the right strength and angle. Ashraf Hakimi rushed in from the right.

Ashraf Hakimi was like a flash of lightning, instantly breaking the tranquility of the stadium. His speed was amazing, like a gust of wind, leaving the opponent no time to react. Huddersfield's left-back Terrence Kongolo tried to stop him, but Ashraf Hakimi was too fast. With his excellent explosive power and agility, he broke through Terrence Kongolo's defense in an instant.

"Everything is just as Gary Lineker said before the game. Terrence Kongolo's speed shortcoming was indeed targeted by coach Mourinho. "After seeing Ashraf Hakimi break through Terence Kongolo at high speed, Gary Neville couldn't help but give a big thumbs up to his partner.

At the same time, on the lawn of Old Trafford, the football under Ashraf Hakimi's feet was like a magic, following his steps closely. His eyes were full of determination and confidence, as if announcing to everyone that he was the king of this court.

After breaking through the defense, Hakimi did not hesitate at all and continued to rush forward with the ball. His eyes were fixed on the penalty area in front of him, and his steps were as fast as lightning. The wind whistled in his ears, and he could clearly hear his violent heartbeat and rapid breathing. He had only one goal, which was to send the ball into the penalty area and create scoring opportunities for his teammates.

Soon, he saw Edinson Cavani in the penalty area. Ashraf Hakimi passed the ball without hesitation. Edinson Cavani, the experienced striker, caught it steadily. After receiving the ball, Edinson Cavani made some adjustments, leaned back slightly, and swung his right foot gently, looking for the best time to shoot. Soon, the football flew towards the goal like a cannonball, with great power and rotation. The football drew a beautiful arc in the air, and the speed was so fast that it was dazzling. However, Huddersfield goalkeeper Ben Hammer was no ordinary person. He watched Edinson Cavani's move intently. Move, ready to make a save at any time. Just when the ball was about to fly into the goal, Ben Hammer reacted quickly like an agile cat. He flew towards the ball and blocked it with all his strength.

At the moment the ball was saved, Edinson Cavani showed a trace of regret on his face. He shook his head helplessly, secretly regretting the missed opportunity.

Huddersfield's morale was boosted after successfully defending Edinson Cavani's shot.They quickly seized the opportunity to launch a counterattack. Midfielder J. Hogg was like a commander on the battlefield, observing the situation calmly and accurately finding A. Diakab on the left in the chaos. Hogg passed the ball with a strong kick, and the football flew towards Diakab like a bullet.

After receiving the ball, Diakab started instantly like a wild horse. He was incredibly fast, with the wind under his feet, rushing forward with the ball. The grass retreated rapidly under his feet, and his figure flashed across the court like lightning. The opponent's defensive players hurried forward to intercept, but Diakab relied on his excellent ball control skills and agility to cleverly shake off one defensive player after another.

When approaching the penalty area, Diakab looked firmly at Kachunga in the penalty area. He passed the ball without hesitation, and the football drew a beautiful arc in the air. Kachunga caught the ball steadily, and at this time he had only one thought in his mind-shooting and scoring. Kachunga made a slight adjustment and then kicked the ball hard. His legs burst out with great power, and the football flew towards the goal like a meteor. Unfortunately, perhaps because of too much tension or interference from the opposing defensive players, the ball eventually missed the goal. Kachunga patted his head in annoyance, and the players of Huddersfield also showed regretful expressions.

Manchester United kept looking for opportunities in the offense, and their offense was very patient. Midfielder Jude Bellingham showed extraordinary overall view and passing accuracy. His eyes were like torches, closely watching the changes in the situation on the court. When he saw Marco Verratti running out of an excellent receiving position, Bellingham passed the ball again without hesitation. The football drew a beautiful arc in the air and landed accurately at Marco Verratti's feet.

After Marco Verratti received the ball, he observed it for a while and immediately passed the ball to the left; when the ball arrived, Theo Fernandez, who inserted at high speed, received the ball like a sharp knife and inserted it into Huddersfield's defense line. His technique is very good. Facing Huddersfield's captain and right-back Tommy Smith, he showed superb dribbling skills. He sometimes accelerated and changed direction, sometimes cleverly passed, and easily broke through Tommy Smith's defense.

After the breakthrough, Theo Fernandez did not hesitate at all. His eyes quickly locked on Erling Haaland in the penalty area and decisively passed the ball. At this time, Erling Haaland was already prepared. He understood and caught the ball steadily, made a slight adjustment, and then kicked hard. His legs burst out with powerful power, and the football flew towards the goal like a cannonball. At this time, Huddersfield's Tommy Smith showed a tenacious defensive will. He quickly returned to defense and blocked Erling Haaland's shot with his body at a critical moment.

At the moment the ball was blocked, Erling Haaland showed a trace of regret, but he was not discouraged, but immediately prepared to invest in the next attack.
