Manchester United 0-1 Tottenham, missed the Champions League, Amorin trusted players who had been out of the game for a long time, and the chaos was backfired

Manchester United lost to Tottenham 0-1, basically ending all the games of this season. It doesn't matter if they return to the last round of the Premier League next game against Villa. They are ranked last in the league and have no championship. Manchester United will not have a Champions League match next season, only single-line battles in domestic competitions. Lukesha's own goal shattered all hopes of Manchester United's UEFA Cup and also shattered Manchester United's only chance to save themselves this season.

This game is a typical Premier League game. Both sides are very rough and neither side can organize effective continuous attacks. Every 3 or 4 minutes, the game is stopped due to a foul, so this game is destined to be a mess. Manchester United, who was originally the best at fighting, had a slow speed, which made the offense not threatened. Amorin's starting lineup chose Lukeshaw, who had long been away from the battlefield, chose to believe in Mount, but ended up losing the most important game of the season.

Marteau United's starting lineup: The lineup for many games has been practiced

In fact, Manchester United has been preparing for the UEFA Cup final for a long time, and the selection of starters and tactical configurations are also frequently used in recent games. A set of 3421 positions on the surface is actually a 433 system position, which is the system where Semiro single midfielder and B Fee + Mount serves as the double central defender.

Hoilen started as the center, responsible for restraining the center back, and Dorgu + Diallo served as the two wings. Dorgu also needs to return to the backcourt to serve as the wingback, focusing on a round trip ability. Mount is the second point around Hoylen, while B Fee + Casemiro is a midfielder, Lukesha + Maguire + Yoro is the third central defender, and Mazravi is actually the full-back.

Manchester United's interception: Effective interception in the middle

does not have Madison. In fact, Tottenham's midfielder does not have the ability to control the ball, so Manchester United used a high-pressing system of 4141. Casemiro is a single midfielder, Hoylen is responsible for cutting the inside, Doorgu + Diallo faces Tottenham's full-back on both sides, and B Fee + Mount two players with large range of activities are responsible for facing Tottenham's midfielder.

This system is actually effective, and the rhythms of both sides are very fragmented. Tottenham's pass success rate has been floating between 60% and 70% throughout the game. You can look at the area where Tottenham lost the ball. Mazravi and Casemiro have the most ball rights. Manchester United's system uses the passing route of B Fee + Mount Che in the middle to force Spurs to pass a long time, and then use the confrontation between Mazravi, Casemiro and Maguire to win the ball rights.

The problem is that Manchester United can't get faster. Look at how fast B's shot this time, Tottenham's return to defense is. Originally, when Hoylen got the ball, there were only three people in the penalty area, but when B's shot, seven or eight players had already returned to the penalty area.

This is the problem that happened to Manchester United in this game. Manchester United's offense is not as fast as the opponent. Every time Manchester United hit the frontcourt, the opponent is already crowded with people. Look at Amade Diallo's shot this time. Diallo compressed Udoji's space, but it was difficult to make an inverted triangle cross and pass directly in front of the goal because Tottenham had too many people in the penalty area.

Manchester United's defense: There are always problems with the defense of the long post

Tottenham cannot go to the middle, so Tottenham can only pass more to two sides, so this game is basically a matchup of crosses from the wing. After all, both sides of Tottenham are fast horses. You can look at Tottenham's passing position. It's basically two sides, with very few in the middle. In the 73rd minute of the game, Tottenham Hotspur made 31 of 161 crosses from long passes and 13 crosses, which were for Manchester United's Lukesha and Mazlawi, and took the ball behind them and then crossed. The cross was also heading towards Manchester United's long post, in other words, the strong and weak side transfer. In the first half, Tottenham Hotspur's attack was more threatening, and it was also a big diagonal line on the side, and the winger directly rushed forward and formed a shot.

Tottenham scored 1 goal from Manchester United, and this is how it happened. On Manchester United's cross from the right, he was running towards Lukesha's head. This time it led to Lukesha's own goal. If you look at this attack yourself, you will find that Manchester United's penalty area was actually 3 people hitting 2 people. Maguire resisted the opponent, but Lukesha and Doorgu in the back could not stop the opponent's cut.

This way of losing the ball has always been a big problem for Manchester United this season. The long-distance post's marks are always unable to keep an eye on it. Making such a mistake in the final is a fatal mistake, because this game is a game with a tiny rhythm, and it depends on who makes fewer mistakes.

Manchester United's problem: There is no problem in confrontation, but it is too slow

What is the core problem of Manchester United in this game? Is it the problem of the center and the problem of the three central defenders? Actually, none of them are. The core problem is that Manchester United is moving forward too slowly. Every time Manchester United plays to the frontcourt, Tottenham's return speed is enough to ensure that Tottenham returns to the penalty area, and Manchester United's offense is obviously not enough to ensure that they can crack dense defense, and Manchester United is not good at long-post attacks that transfer from the strong and weak sides.

This is the huge problem that Manchester United has always had this season. Why is it not fast enough? Every time Manchester United passes for a long backcourt, Hoylon in the middle cannot get the ball because he needs to fight against two central defenders. Manchester United can only walk to two sides. Diallo on the right is small, and only Dorgu can get it on the left. The picture above is. Manchester United successfully competed for the frontcourt for 7 times, all of them were running towards the left half area..

Look at Manchester United's touch ball again. Manchester United's touch ball can basically cover the entire court. The only area that cannot be covered is the penalty area + attack area 14, which is the position at the top of the penalty area. Because the opponent cuts off Manchester United's side-centered position. If you can't get the ball at this position, Manchester United does not pass directly or two points. Every attack is the opponent clearing the ball and counterattack quickly.

Game summary: Manchester United overestimated its offensive ability

Tottenham Hotspur was very pragmatic in this game. The three midfielders were engineers midfielders, all of which were able to run and grab. In addition, both sides were players who were good at harassing opponents' offenses, so Tottenham Hotspur defended very well every time, and it can be said that they were united as one. Manchester United has more or less a problem of inattention.

Especially after Tottenham scored 1 goal, Manchester United seemed a little disappointed and wanted to speed up the offensive rhythm, but once the passing speed became faster, Manchester United's passing mistakes increased significantly. The success rate of passing in the frontcourt is not high, so the attack is naturally not threatening. How can you get up quickly, how to compress the opponent's defense line, how to increase two points, and how to complete the transfer of the strong and weak side, Manchester United has not done this, and it is a bit overestimating its offensive ability.

At the end of the game, Manchester United could only rely on Maguire to push forward and compete for this set. The problem is that in the face of Tottenham's intensive defense, Maguire has to fight two people in a single-handed battle every time. No one helped Maguire take away the defense. This pressure can be imagined.
