1-0! Controversial tactical corner kick scores, Premier League focus battle: 1.32 billion giants passively defeated the dead enemy

In the early morning of August 18, the first round of the Premier League ushered in a focus battle, which was also a showdown between giants, Manchester United and Arsenal.

In the just-passed offseason, both teams made personnel additions. For Arsenal, Yorke started, and Havertz and new player Maduaike were on standby on the bench. For Manchester United, Cunha and Mbemo both won the starting positions, while Hoylen did not make it to the roster, so it is inevitable that he will leave the team.

Only 6 minutes into the game, Manchester United made a quick attack. Mount's pass was sharp enough. Mbemo had no better angle after stopping the ball, and his subsequent shot was a bit barely enough.

In the 13th minute, Arsenal received a corner kick, Rice took the penalty, Baindel had a problem with the ball under the interference of Saliba, and Karafiori successfully picked up the ball and pushed the ball into it. Manchester United players collectively protested Saliba's collision with the goalkeeper, and the referee firmly ordered the penalty to score an effective goal.

Onana missed the roster, and now Baindel also conceded the ball early. I don’t know what other solutions Amorin will do and whether the Red Devils will consider introducing Donarumma. Manchester United accelerated the offensive rhythm after conceding the ball. In the 30th minute, Duogu shot directly during the counterattack, and the ball hit the outside of the post and bounced out, which was a pity.

6 minutes later, Manchester United's new player once again gained opportunities with his personal ability. Cunya shot from a small angle after double-teaming, and was rescued by Raya to resolve the danger.

Over the first half, Manchester United completed 11 shots, 5 shots, and the Gunners shots, 3 shots, while Manchester United, which has the advantage in data, was behind 0-1.

Shortly after the start of the second half, Arteta and Amorin made substitution adjustments one after another. In the 63rd minute, Maduaike, who came on the bench, passed the ball, and Rice's shot was blocked by De Rigt.

Mbemo and Cunha are undoubtedly the two best performers. In the 68th minute, after receiving a cross from Yoro, Mbemo turned his back to the goal, hooked the ball directly, and the ball was slightly off.

5 minutes later, Mbemo attacked again, and Duogu made a cross from the baseline, and Mbemo's extremely threatening header was saved by Raya. In the rest of the game, Manchester United still had the advantage in attacking with all their might, but they could not score. In the end, Manchester United, with a total value of 890 million, lost to Arsenal, with a total value of 1.32 billion, and missed a good start. Calafiori's goal caused huge controversy.
