The other two rounds of spn's Carabao Cup final have ended early. The winner between Manchester United and Manchester City will compete with Villa in the final for the final championship trophy.

Li Yu was not too surprised when he heard the news, or he was simply moved. When interviewed by the media, he talked more about the upcoming second round of the semi-final against Manchester City.

"We will definitely try our best to win the game at home, comeback? No, for Manchester United, it is to beat the opponent at home and score more goals than the opponent!"

When talking about his former teammate Carlos Tevez, Li Yu seemed a lot more cautious, and the topic surrounding the Argentine has not dissipated, "He is a shooter, and his responsibility is to win goals for the team. The thing is the same, with such a high-level opponent, there is more motivation to compete, coupled with the allure of the trophy, I think I will perform even better, no matter who I face!"

Li Yu's expression before the game represented the thoughts of other Manchester United players. Rooney also said the same thing. Manchester United will definitely advance to the final. [

Before the crucial battle came, at midnight on January 1, there was finally good news from the Manchester United club. Manchester United officially announced the first signing of the winter. The Red Devils confirmed that they had reached an agreement with Fulham. - Smalling will officially join Manchester United next season.according to

Manchester United rotated 2 players. Carrick and Giggs replaced Park Ji-sung and Owen respectively. Li Yu returned to the starting lineup. Unexpectedly, Manchester United played No. 9, but Ferguson put Rooney No. 10 on the bench.

Will such a starting lineup look a bit weak in offense? The media is very puzzled why Ferguson would send such a starting lineup, 4-5-1!

Manchester City sent the same starting lineup in the first round of the derby, and Adebayor entered the bench.

The game will be held at 8:4 PM local time in the UK, which means that Manchester United fans in China must stay up until [-]:[-] AM if they want to watch the game!

Although it was already late at night in Huaxia, many Huaxia fans were still waiting in front of the live screen for the start of the game.

It's better to ask, there are no fans supporting the visiting team at all, red is the only theme, and many bars also define this night as the night of the Red Devils.

The only fly in the ointment is that Huaxia fans can only watch Cantonese commentary, and there is no Mandarin commentary at all.

Huaxia fans can only comfort themselves, "Who said that Li Yu is a Huaxia Hong Kong player? Even the commentator speaks Cantonese!"

It can only be explained that the major local stations and online media in China have ignored the importance of this game, and they are fully convinced that the game at [-] o'clock in the middle of the night will not attract too many people's attention, and there is no need to spend money to make pictures.

The fact is just the opposite. It's not that no one pays attention, but that there should not be too much attention. This is the Manchester derby!

Take a look at the Old Trafford Stadium, you will know the police who are waiting in full battle. Three rows of stadium security personnel use a human wall to separate the fans of the two teams. Police patrolling on tall horses can be seen everywhere outside the stadium, whether it is inside or outside the stadium. Fans will have to separate.

When they arrived at the stadium, the fans of the two teams hardly stopped, but Manchester City fans were obviously at a disadvantage. At Old Trafford, they will always be the weak side.

Many Manchester United fans had drunk so much before the game started, belching from time to time, these fans naturally became the focus of security personnel's attention!

The main referee of this game, Weber, has led the referees who are enforcing the law and began to check the various facilities of the stadium, but the scene is too noisy, and the communication between them can only be shouted loudly or close to each other's ears.

Such a hot opening atmosphere is rare in the Manchester derby. In the past, the Carabao Cup, which was relatively weak in the past, was really so attractive. Perhaps it was more because of Manchester City's continuous investment in improvements, which made the Manchester derby instantly improved. This level, especially the fans of Manchester City, after the home victory over Manchester United in the first leg, they saw the hope of double-killing their opponents.

Manchester United fans thought it would be shameful, and they couldn't do without being popular. From the media's point of view, this was a brand new collision between old and new giants in Manchester City.

Before the game, in the relatively crowded player tunnel, the players of the two teams were all standing ready to play. They were acquaintances with each other, but no one communicated with the acquaintances of the opponent team. They were all honestly waiting to enter the field. Teammates said a few words, and they definitely did not have the relaxed attitude of other games in the past.

Under the leadership of the referee Weber, the players of the two teams led the small fans in the opponent's uniforms into the field.

It was dignified before the game, but after the game started, it could only be described as hot.

The central midfielder meat grinder composed of Carrick, Fletcher and Scholes contained Manchester City's offensive from the first minute. [

The defensive actions of the three of them are not small, since the minced meat will be ground to pieces.

Of course, Manchester City is not to be outdone. The midfielder combination composed of No. 33 Kompany, No. 34 De Jong and No. 18 Barry is also tit for tat.

After the game started, the people watching the game smelled the smell of gunpowder.

In the opening 13 minutes, Kompany received a yellow card for overturning Li Yu.

This is completely a pull-and-trip defense.Moreover, the movement must be obvious, if it is not obvious, there is no way to exert force, and if you can't exert force, then don't even think about being able to stop Li Yu...

Although it was just after the middle circle, Weber, the referee on duty, showed Kompany a yellow card very resolutely.

Kompany went up to talk to the referee for a few words, and then turned back in embarrassment.

Of course he didn't want to get a yellow card so early, but if Li Yu hadn't been drawn just now, Manchester United's No. 9 would have been single-handed. Now few people would dare to underestimate Li Yu's single-handed ball. The last goalkeeper will also be wiped out by Li Yu!

As long as Li Yu is on the field, he can't relax his vigilance at all times. Of course, Mancini is very glad that Manchester United did not send Li Yu in the first round. Now?We must watch closely, and we must not leave him any chance. Of course, the Manchester City players who have been arranged by the head coach will cut down vigorously.

Kompany's tactical foul can still be regarded as correct, but some other fouls on both sides are not as simple as tactical needs.

In the 20th minute, Ferdinand swung his right arm first while protecting the ball, and then hit Tevez with his left elbow. The Argentine beast fell to the ground immediately. Ferdinand ran away from the incident, but Tevez's Compatriot Zabaleta ran over to complain to Weber. Weber called Ferdinand over and said a few words, but he never showed a yellow card!

In the 25th minute, Li Yu scrambled in front of the opponent's penalty area and waved to Zabaleta who was dribbling the ball, but he didn't seem to hit the opponent much. Thinking about something, Ji Wen also ran over to talk to him, and Weber called Li Yu and Zabaleta over to give a lecture, and finally the two shook hands and made peace.

In the 36th minute, Scholes shoveled Wright Jr. and applied for a yellow card.

In the 41st minute, Rafal shoveled Bellamy and was verbally warned by referee Weber.

In the 48th minute, Tevez shoveled Rafal in front of the boos and got a yellow card. In the process, Bellamy and Ferdinand scolded on the field, and Webber ran to Manchester United. After saying a few words, a smile appeared on Ferdinand's face. Weber then caught up with Bellamy and said a few words to him. No one is a good boy. Weber almost did only one thing in the first half, Fighting fires everywhere, the two teams didn't have any decent offense at all, it was more like a gladiatorial fight than a football game.

Li Yu didn't have many chances. At the end of the first half, the total score was still 1:2 behind Manchester City!
