Football King Bale - Chapter 686
After winning West Ham at home, it’s Christmas.
However, the Manchester United players cannot celebrate Christmas arbitrarily, because at noon on Boxing Day, the first game of the Boxing Day battle, Manchester United will go away to challenge the newly promoted Maher City, who has performed well this season.
Hull City is a team that is inextricably linked to Manchester United. The first is their coach Steve Bruce. As the former captain of Manchester United, Bruce has been dismissed from Sunderland on November 30, 2011. In the summer of the following year, he took office in Hull City, which was still in the Championship, and led Hull City to the Premier League one season later.
In addition, there are several players in the Hull City team that have a deep relationship with Manchester United, such as team defender Chester, and Bruce’s son Alex Bruce, and so on.
For these reasons, Hull City is considered a **** Premier League team with Man.
In this game, Bell got a break.
Since entering December, Bell has played six games, an average of less than 4 days to play a game. In the previous game against West Ham United, Ferguson saw Bale’s fatigue, so he chose to replace him when the game was only in the 70th minute.
Because there is no need to play on Boxing Day, and Liu Xian’er also flew to England from the east to spend Christmas with Bell, so this Christmas, Bell chose to take Liu Xian’er back to Cardiff City, with him in this time and space. Parents spend Christmas together.
In the UK, because children generally stand on their own feet earlier, on an important day like Christmas, it is a very important signal for children to take their girls back to their hometown to spend Christmas with their parents. Just like Orientals, take the girls home during the Spring Festival. The New Year is the same.
This is also the first time Bell took a girl to his hometown in Cardiff City, which made the old Bells very happy. Although Liu Xian’er is not British, the beautiful and gentle Liu Xian’er was recognized by them immediately.
Especially when Liu Xian’er greeted them in English with a fluent standard London accent, the old couple were even more happy from ear to ear.
Seeing Liu Xian’er who was chatting and laughing with the old Bell and his wife, Bell felt extremely relieved and put a lot of things in his heart.
This Christmas night, the night scene of Cardiff City is endless…
……………………
On Boxing Day, Bell and Liu Xian’er still stayed at their hometown in Cardiff City. However, he still watched the match between Manchester United and Tiger City on the banks of Hull in Yorkshire through live television.
For this game, the media and betting companies are one-sidedly optimistic about Manchester United’s away win. Perhaps in many people’s eyes, as a new member of the Premier League’s contact with Manchester, the Bruce team will definitely be very much in the critical period when Manchester United scores points. Respectfully sent three points to help Manchester United successfully widen the gap with competitors in the Premier League standings.
However, when the game started, people discovered that Tiger City did not intend to surrender at home.
This game is the 25th main match between the two clubs. Before this, Manchester United had a clear advantage with 16 wins, 3 draws and 5 losses. Among them, they lost all against Hull City in the Premier League 4 times. In fact, the Red Devils have been defeated since November 1974. After losing to Hull City at 0:2 in the month away, the two sides have won the last 7 matches and scored 20 goals.
In this game, Steve Bruce had four consecutive rounds of the same starting lineup; Manchester United, Welbeck injured his knee and continued to start, but Phil Jones suffered a knee injury and needed two weeks of injury. Rick and Van Persie also continued to be absent, while Bell was given a rotation and continued to vacation in Cardiff City. Fletcher has started for the first time in the past 13 months. This is also his 250th start in the Manchester United shirt.
Opening in the first half, Hull City made a fantastic start. In the 4th minute, Bell’s former Tottenham teammate Huddlestone took a right corner kick. Bruce from the edge of the penalty area pressed Evra’s header and flew to the goal. Chester shot from a close left footpad to break the deadlock. The Hull City team led 1-0.
However, from the replay, Hull City’s corner kick was slightly controversial, and Ermuhammadi’s right cross kicked directly to the bottom line instead of being blocked by Cleverly with a sliding tackle.
………………
An accidental loss in the opening game made the Manchester United players realize that the game was not as easy as expected, and they also increased their pressure.
In the 9th minute, Welbeck’s header flew, and Ashley Young, who was Manchester United’s left winger, accidentally kicked McGregor and almost caused a conflict.
Three minutes later, Manchester United was hit again. Sabau passed the ball from the left, Livermore stopped the ball too much, Mailer took the shot and was blocked by Evans, but Evans’s poor clearance point instead formed an assist, Mailer strafed from 8 meters, Evan Sis once blocked again, but he did not expect to interfere with goalkeeper De Gea’s judgment. The ball was refracted into the net and Hull City led 2-0.
The Manchester United fans watching in front of the TV are a little dumbfounded. Could it be that Manchester United’s first defeat of the season will come at such an important moment as Boxing Day?
………………
The so-called “Fortune Warriors” does not come singly. Manchester United, which fell behind by two goals in the away game, suffered another blow in the 18th minute of the game. This season’s main right-back Rafael was injured while fighting against his opponent, unable to persist in the game, Ferguson had to choose a substitution.
This accident further deepens the concerns of Manchester United fans. Is it true that Manchester United will lose?
Especially considering that Bell did not enter Manchester United’s roster this game, the hearts of Manchester United fans are even more unsure.
But what embarrassed Ferguson was that Manchester United did not have any good substitutes for the right back. In desperation, he had to let Ashley Young, who had previously played the left wing, play the right back.
This change is really big enough, it can be called a 180 degree swap.
The player who came off the bench was young player Januzhai.
Because Bell moved to Manchester United, Jia Baoyu, who should have been so popular after the start of this season, had few chances to perform before. In this game, Bell was on a rotation, and the team was injured early, he did get a lot. Opportunity for time.
Januzhai’s talent is still good. After his appearance, he forced Figueroa to foul and not only received a yellow card but also sent a free kick to the threat area, and produced Manchester United’s first goal of the game.
In the 19th minute, Rooney drove a free kick on the right side of the front court to the goal. Smalling, with the two defenders, jumped up to the goal 8 meters away from the goal and scored to help Manchester United get a point.
………………

In the 21st minute, McGregor rescued a strong shot from the front of the penalty area by Cleverly.
In the 22nd minute, Wayne Rooney took a pass from Januzhai and shot high.
After missing two consecutive opening opportunities, Manchester United finally seized the opportunity. In the 25th minute, Evans sent a long pass from the midfielder. Rooney knocked on his back. Davis stabbed a kick while defending Welbeck but did not fall well. Rooney blocked 25 meters away from the goal, then right. The foot volley drew a wonderful world wave and sent the ball into the upper left corner of the Hull City goal.
Manchester United chased the score to a 2:2 tie. This was also the 150th Premier League goal that Xiao Fatty contributed to Manchester United.
However, Manchester United failed to score again in the first half, and Hull City and Manchester United tied for 2:2 and entered the halftime break.
At the beginning of the second half, Hull City changed two people and launched a counterattack. Obviously, they want to keep the three-pointer at home.
In the 62nd minute, Heddlestone’s long-range shot was blocked by Evra and missed the baseline. Immediately, Huddlestone took a corner kick from the right, Bruce’s header hit the goal beam and popped out, and Manchester United escaped.
