In the 22nd round of the league, after winning their respective matches, they will meet again - the semi-finals of the League Cup.

But that's not good news for City, whose current injury situation isn't too optimistic.

Manchester City's current injury list includes: Kompany, Bonjaman Mendy, Jesus and Foden.

Manchester United, on the other hand, are veterans in an injury situation, for whom they are not injured, and it is Michael Carrick and Fellaini who are currently unavailable, which is an important rotation and not fatal.

According to media forecasts, everyone is optimistic that Manchester United can win the game, but considering the two-legged system, many of them will think that Manchester United will eventually maintain a draw in the first leg away from home.

This is Mourinho's usual tactic, so it's not difficult for them, and they can even sneak out in passive defense to fight back, so that they can win the game away from home!

Once victorious away from home, Guardiola knows with his ass what Mourinho will do.

He has not experienced such a thing, he met him before Inter and Real Madrid, that posture made him feel extremely headache, and now he does not want to try, it is too troublesome.

There is another thing that he feels is not very good on his face once the car rolls over, but he is still worried that football is played by players.

For this game, his expectations are as follows

: [Goalkeeper: Bravo

defenders: Danilo, Stones, Mangara, Zinchenko

midfielders: Bernardo Silva, Gundogan, De Bruyne

forwards: Sterling, Aguero, Sane

substitutes: Kyle Walker, Fernandinho, etc.]

Although it is a bit risky, people do not believe that Manchester United will start all the games. After all, this is just a small FA Cup.

Mourinho's understanding of Mourinho is still stuck in the past, but he is not like that now.

If there is a chance to compete for the championship and will not affect the subsequent personnel arrangement, Mourinho will compete, the previous year's small treble, so can it be upgraded a level this year?

If he could, Jose Mourinho would do it!

So in this game he chose to send a youngster-led squad

: [up front: Depay, Ibrahimovic, Rashford

midfielders: Herrera, Rice, Zheng Lin

defensive: Teo Hernandez, Maguire, Blind, Ashraf Hakimi

goalkeeper: Dean Henderson

substitutes: Morata, N'Golo Kante, Thiago Silva and others].

Although there are not many main players, but everything is there, for away games, Manchester United demand a draw, even a small loss is not a problem.

The popularity of this game naturally attracted a lot of media, and even the more provocative media also took the initiative to dig up some fierce material.

But they could only run for nothing, and the players on both sides, including the coach, were extremely official about the game, which made them a little disappointed.

For Manchester City, who play at home, this is a game that will determine whether they can have a cup this season, which will naturally make Manchester City players work hard.

In the short adaptation of the venue, the commentator also talked about this match, both sides did not arrange their strongest lineup for various reasons, but they did not want to give up the game.

After all, this is at least related to this championship fight, so they should not play too casually!

The Etihad Stadium officially began with the whistle of referee Anthony Taylor.

The first to attack is Manchester United, I don't know why they started the game with a weak desire to attack, but more in the central midfield to constantly pass the ball, which made the commentary a little confused.

"Are they trying to play a friendly match?"

Watching Manchester United slow to move forward, the commentary also feels a little boring, although it is more tiring to know that they are fighting on multiple fronts, but this is the profession of players, they are competing for championship trophies, if they are not interested, it is really not interesting.

In the 12th minute of the game, Zheng Lin received a cross knock from Herrera, and he pushed with his left foot and shoved it straight towards the player in front.

But the backline for this match is Gundogan, a German who doesn't let football pass like this.

"Gundogan's interception made Zheng Lin's direct plug fruitless, he distributed the ball to Bernardo Silva, and at this time Manchester City's attack is coming!"

Bernardo Silva's push has allowed Manchester United's players to be considered "back in shape" at this time, and it is inevitable that there will be some fatigue in the intensive schedule, and this is the case with Manchester United in this game.

It's a mental situation, and from the previous period, Manchester United's desire to win is not high at the moment, but you can't take people lightly, because people have the ability to fight back.

"Bernardo Silva same pick pass, Aguero received the ball without making adjustments, directly small angle goal!"

"Dean Henderson! Manchester United's third goalkeeper has made a contribution! "

Dean Henderson after the successful save roared at Harry Maguire in the defense, which is undoubtedly a reminder that this is not so careless in the game!

Commentary: At this time, I found a very interesting place on the Manchester United field, that is, Manchester United's goalkeepers, central defenders, and backs are all English, although they are still young, but they will undoubtedly be regulars of the national team.

However, among the three of them, Henderson's situation is not good, after all, in front of him is De Gea, this goalline saves the top door god, and it is very difficult to squeeze him out!

Henderson, who was holding the ball, waited for a moment, he observed the position of several players in the front court, and he opened it with a big foot.

"Is this a direct counterattack? This footwork is great! Seeing

that Ibrahimovic could do it, Zheng Lin, who followed up, took the lead in controlling the ball.

"Zheng Lin chose the ball straight again, and after Marcus Rashford received the ball, he hit the goal with the right outside instep!"

“GOALLLLL!!!!!"

'Manchester United still scored first in this game, although they are not in form, but Manchester United's performance is worthy of their dominance in the league!"

'It's too early to say that Manchester United are dominant in the league, but their performances will get better over time!'

The first goal conceded at home was something that Guardiola had expected, but did not expect it to be in such a format, the goalkeeper kicked off, Ibrahimovic would do, the midfielder was passing the ball, and then the goal was scored....

He is a little helpless about such a situation, but he is also a little curious, Manchester United is this a rich goalkeeper?

How come there are goalkeepers who perform exceptionally well one after another!
