Chapter 1226
The Old Trafford staff were not gentle when they knocked on the door to remind the Arsenal players to come on.

After the door of their locker room was knocked twice, the gunners opened the door and walked out.

It was still the captain Liu Feng who took the lead, and a group of players collided with the Manchester United players on the opposite side.

Their eyes met directly, and they refused to give in to each other. Just standing side by side in the player tunnel already gave people a feeling that the rain is about to come.

The three referees in the referee group were also uncomfortable, and announced their entry directly after checking the time.

"Two teams stepped into the field side by side. The red home team on the left is the home team Manchester United for this game, and the yellow away team is Arsenal on the right."

Walk in, take pictures, shake hands.

Everything was proceeding in an orderly manner, and the two sides suppressed the hostility, waiting for the moment to erupt.

"A Feng won the game of guessing with Rooney, and he chose the kick-off for the team."

Seeing Liu Feng walking towards his teammates with the ball, Zhan Jun began to speak and participate in the commentary: "As a team that pursues ball possession tactics, this is undoubtedly very conducive to the Gunners' performance."

"Yes."

The noise gradually died down, and the scene froze when the two sides stood in their respective positions and made eye contact.

Van Persie, who is standing in the center of Manchester United, is now full of hostility towards the entire Arsenal team. He has fully integrated into Manchester United and has become the general Fan of the Red Devils fans.

Of course, the players on the Gunners' side have long since felt nothing about this former teammate who was an indispensable part of the team a season ago.

Good luck tricks people, some things will never be forgiven.

"Shh!!!"

A whistle blew away everyone's thoughts and blew the horn to start the game.

"Giroud launched the ball, Afeng passed it back directly after getting the ball, Rosicky in the middle got the ball, and the Gunners started to control the ball in their own half."

Smooth start and ball-handling performance, everything goes without saying.

The two commentators began to quickly introduce the starting formations of the two teams.

"Then let me introduce Manchester United's starting lineup for this game."

After Liu Jianhong quickly went through Arsenal's formation, Zhan Jun immediately began to introduce the Red Devils' starting lineup to the audience.

"Ferguson's formation in this game is also 433, but the distance between Manchester United players is not as close as that of the Gunners."

As far as the eye can see, there has just been a change of possession on the pitch. After the opening, the Manchester United team, which was ready to attack, successfully broke the ball at the feet of Giroud in the Gunners' first offensive attempt.

"In terms of the arrangement of the three forwards, Nani on the left, Van Persie on the center and Rooney on the right, this is also a very offensive striker."

Both Van Persie and Rooney are top strikers who have proven themselves in the Premier League, and Nani is also a strong player with strength.

"The three midfielders are Manchester United's new aid this season, Ashley Young, the excellent midfielder Cleverley from the Red Devils' new generation youth training, and No. 8 Anderson."

As the rotation of the ball continued to flash past the Red Devils players, Zhan Jun quickly introduced Manchester United's starting defender for this game.

"On the back line, Smalling was placed at right back, Evans and Vidic became the central defenders for this game, and Evra was at left back."

When he reached the last position, Zhan Jun paused.

"As for the goalkeeper position, the 21-year-old David De Gea, the second most expensive player in football transfers, has become Manchester United's goalkeeper this season. This player can be said to have won the trust of Ferguson."

The signboard of the European Red Devils is quite easy to use. At least in terms of signings, Manchester United has also introduced a group of outstanding young talents.

On the field, after controlling the ball for a while, they also started the team's first attacking attempt.

"The ball was sent to the front after a circle between the defenders. Anderson in the middle took the ball and faced Giroud's pressing and sent the ball directly."

"Shh!"

After Anderson kicked the ball to Ashley Young who was pulling on the left, Manchester United's offensive speed instantly increased.

"Ashley Young pushed forward from the left, wide open and close the ball, Rosicky didn't have time to block his forward line, and Alexander Song quickly rushed forward."

The experienced Song did not directly approach Ashley Young like Rosicky, but kept stepping back to adjust his position.

This made the player in front of him a little uncomfortable, and after a while, Ashley Young had to pass the ball.

"Push it to Cleverley who responded in the middle, took the ball and continued to pass it to the right, and Anderson, who was inserted in, received the ball and fought a tough battle in the Gunners' half."

With Rosicky and Wilshere back in place, Manchester United's fast break did not start after all.

Later, when Anderson wanted to cross the Gunners midfield defense and go directly to Van Persie, defender Phil Jones, who was intercepted by the Gunners from Manchester United, used a beautiful header to clear the siege from Van Persie's head.

Wilshere received the ball and passed it to Rosicky. Rosicky began to cooperate with his teammates in the frontcourt, and a new round of possession of the ball began again.

This time, Arsenal's possession of the ball was more cautious and deft, and Manchester United's difficulty in stealing the ball increased sharply.

This kind of competition between the two sides continued to be staged repeatedly. In the opening No. 17 minutes, Liu Feng took the lead in staging the Gunners' first extremely well-positioned shot.

It was Giroud's header pass after facing Rosicky's pass over Anderson. Liu Feng was the first to reach the landing point under the defense of Smalling, but because of the opponent's excessive interference, he hit a high angle.

In the face of Liu Feng's subsequent complaints, the referee chose to turn a blind eye. Obviously, this is not a foul in his penalty standards.

Soon, Manchester United also encountered this scene.

In an attacking pass, Rooney, on the right, dribbled the ball over Wilshere, who was trying to steal the ball from him and was walking alongside him.

Subsequently, Rooney entered the restricted area directly under the pursuit of Alves.

"Oh!"

Just when he was stretching his foot to shoot, there was a clear sound of his feet, and Alves, who took a sliding tackle with his left leg, kicked the ball accurately.

Rooney's outstretched right foot encountered unprecedented resistance, and the ball also flew out in the opposite direction after a brief stalemate.

And Rooney also fell on the lawn, clutching his right foot and wailing continuously.

When the ball was cleared and kicked far out of the sideline by Phil Jones who followed up, the referee signaled that the Manchester United team doctor could come on the field to deal with Rooney.

As for fouls or something, naturally they still don't exist.

"It seems that the referee's scale in this game is very loose, which is not good news for the players of the two teams."

The Premier League, which already advocates confrontation, and with such a referee, Zhan Jun has already seen the subsequent scene of the game in a trance.
