1-1 to 0-0, Manchester United suffered four tough battles, derby C Ronaldo scored the 10th goal, avoiding a double-line collapse
Entering March, the Champions League teams in the five major leagues are facing a double-line battle, and it has also reached a critical moment of league competition. Manchester United's first game in March was an uphill battle, at 0:30 a.m. Beijing time on March 7, Manchester United away to the same city opponent Manchester City, this derby battle is also a test of Manchester United. In the past two games, Manchester United have drawn 1-1 in the Champions League with Atletico Madrid and 0-0 with Watford, with the team in trouble on the offensive end and the February match not being secured.
Manchester United's March match is called the "devil's schedule", playing against manchester City, Tottenham, Atletico Madrid and Liverpool in four consecutive teams, manchester United are not sure to win any game. Since Manchester United did not lay a good foundation in the February game, only two of the five Premier League games were won, Manchester United currently has 47 points, but has played three more games, so the fourth position is temporary, and if the three games in March are not good, I am afraid that I will have to shoot the sixth position.
In the first leg of the match between the two sides, Manchester United lost 0-2 at home, Manchester City is currently ranked first in the Premier League, and Liverpool behind them are chasing very tightly, so the match against Manchester United must go all out. Manchester United has not been in good shape recently, and Ronaldo's form has also fluctuated, at present, Ronaldo has scored 9 goals in the Premier League, and in the derby against Manchester City, Ronaldo will impact the 10th goal of returning to the Premier League. Recently, Ronaldo's form has fluctuated, but fortunately he has rested for a long time, and the match against Manchester City can be revived with blood.
For manager Ronnick, the next fixture schedule is more intense, with only three days of rest after playing Tottenham, followed by a second-leg knockout match with Atletico. Until then, United need to ensure that Cristiano Ronaldo is physically energetic, while the tridents of Pogba, C Ronaldo and Bruno Fernandez also need to break the goal drought. Manchester United need to have a stable tactical play and attacking combination, Pogba and Fernandez are good passers, depending on Ronaldo's state of the game.
In the back line, Lonnick decisively abandoned Maguire in the last game, and Manchester City's attack was faster and more efficient, and Maguire undoubtedly exposed his shortcomings against such a team. So against Manchester City, Maguire was abandoned in the playoffs, and Manchester United have won and lost against Manchester City in the past few times. The game is bound to be intense, the two teams are now in different situations, Manchester City are firmly at the top of the Premier League and the Champions League promotion is not a problem. Manchester United, on the other hand, are facing a collapse on both sides and must avoid such a situation.
The next match between Manchester City and Tottenham Hotspur is decisive, if you lose, you may be left behind, and winning is a relief. Manchester United have to keep at least one in the league and champions league this season, and Cristiano Ronaldo has gradually recovered after a period of lows. Manchester United's current approach on the offensive end is not very much, the rapid pass of the front court in the last two games is still OK, there are not many goals but some tactical coordination, which is also a relatively good direction for Manchester United, against Manchester City is an opportunity to show.
