In an interview after the game, Bournemouth head coach Eddie Howe said helplessly that his team did not perform at its true level, was too slow in its movements and made many mistakes.

"They scored too early and caught us off guard..."

Eddie Howe also praised Manchester United's performance, thinking that they played well and deserved the victory.

Mourinho said at the post-match press conference that the team performed like a whole and the ending was wonderful. After a tense first ten minutes of the game, Ibrahimovic's goal opened things up for the team.

Speaking of Ibrahimovic's goals, he has to mention Manchester United's most expensive signing this summer.

"I know there are many people who find it incredible that we spend 200 million euros to buy a player, but I think today's game is a good proof of why we are willing to spend 200 million euros to buy him, and in the following season, We will also prove to you how cheap two hundred million is."

"I am very, very satisfied with Bruno's performance. He has proved his worth. Although Bruno no longer needs to prove anything because he is Mr. Ballon d'Or himself. But he still works hard. This is a man full of enterprising spirit and fighting spirit. Players like this are qualified to succeed, and our team is lucky to have such players.”

Defending champion Leicester City, which performed miracles last season, lost Kante as the core of the defense, and its performance in the new season was disappointing. They only recorded 1 draw and 1 loss in the first two rounds, ranking 15th in the standings.

Especially after taking the lead, Manchester United frequently launched attacks.

On the afternoon of August 27, local time in the United Kingdom, a focus match of the third round of the Premier League started at the Kingston Communications Stadium. The Red Devils Manchester United were away to challenge newly promoted Hull City.

Conte's Chelsea defeated West Ham United and Watford 2:1 twice, struggling to win two consecutive games.

This is also the final score of the game.

There is no shortage of penalty kick masters in Manchester United. The two superstars Ibrahimovic and Rooney both have excellent penalty kick abilities. However, after careful consideration, Mourinho still listed Bruno as the first penalty taker. .

But Bruno was already prepared for this. About fifteen meters away from the goal, he directly picked the ball with his left foot. The ball went over Jakupovic's head. Although the Hull City goalkeeper raised his hands to stop it, in the end he could only watch the ball fly over his head and fall towards the empty space behind him. Guarded goal.

Manchester City also performed very strongly in the new season. Guardiola coordinated the team very well. In both games, they had a crushing advantage on the court, defeating San Antonio with scores of 2:1 and 4:1 respectively. Deland and Stoke City.

A week later, Manchester United defeated the challenging Saints Southampton 2:0 at home.

"This is a very quick and concise counterattack, and it is also an offensive method that Manchester United has rarely seen in the past three seasons. Obviously, the arrival of Bruno has made Manchester United's offensive methods richer and more threatening."

Just three minutes later, after taking the ball in the left rib, he suddenly got rid of Clucas and passed the ball diagonally with his right foot. Rooney quickly stepped in and shot, but the shot was blocked by Jakupovich.

"Oh, God! Manchester United's quick counterattack..."

"Bruno...the ball went in!!!"

Whether it was the former Manchester United assistant coach on the sidelines, current Hull City coach Mike Phelan, or Clucas on the court, they all clearly realized their mistake, that is, they still underestimated Bruno.

"Hull City, playing at home, played very actively after the start and created opportunities one after another."

………………

After two rounds of games, there are still four teams in the Premier League standings that have maintained unbeatable victories, namely Manchester City, Chelsea, and dark horse Hull City.

Mata waved his hand and said: "No, no, no, your goal is very exciting!"

Amidst the boos at the Kingston Communications Stadium, Bruno quickly rushed to the stands where the fans of the visiting team were. Behind him, the Manchester United players also rushed forward crazily.

"Hull City's opening attack failed!"

Bruno did not disappoint, and steadily sent the ball into Southampton's goal, extending the lead to 2 goals.

This goal was scored through a penalty kick. When the game reached the 51st minute, Bruno passed the ball to the left. Luke Shaw received the ball and entered the penalty area. Southampton midfielder Claci fouled and Manchester United Received the first penalty kick of the new season.

This goal not only caught Hull City off guard, but also the Manchester United players themselves. No one thought that Manchester United's goal would come so suddenly.

The moment Bruno took the shot, he already knew that the ball was there!

………………

Bruno quickly penetrated the gap between two Hull City defenders from the left rib. Clucas was thrown away by Bruno almost at the moment of starting. Curtis Davis chased Bruno all the way towards the goal, but the England central defender was still one step behind Bruno.

………………

Among these four teams, Manchester United defeated Manchester City led by Guardiola with a goal difference advantage of 1 goal difference and occupied the top spot by virtue of scoring 5 goals and conceding 0 goals.

After Bruno took the first step, when the ball came to his feet, he moved forward, successfully stopped Mata's long pass to the ground, continued to move forward, and rushed directly into the penalty area.

Being able to use his speed to tear apart Hull City's defense, single-handedly create a single goal, and calmly shoot the goal when two players double-teamed him, which shows Bruno's strength.

………………

In the first half, Ibrahimovic opened the scoring for Manchester United, and shortly after the start of the second half, Bruno finally scored his first goal in the Premier League.

Mourinho's high evaluation of Bruno surprised many media.

After this game, it is destined that at least one team will not be able to maintain a complete victory.

………………

After scoring the first goal, Manchester United gradually found the feeling of the game. After stabilizing the situation, they began to slowly and actively press forward.

Bruno got up from the ground excitedly, turned around and celebrated with his teammates who rushed towards him. Especially Mata, who sent himself a wonderful long pass to the ground. Bruno laughed and hugged his teammate. The Spanish midfielder's passing skills are quite good, and the pass is very comfortable, which allows him to stop and pass directly past the opponent.

Curtis Davis pursued Bruno relentlessly, while Hull City goalkeeper Jakupovich decisively abandoned the goal and attacked. The two teamed up to block Bruno's shooting angle.

"It's so surprising! It's so fast! With the quick counterattack from Manchester United, Hull City's defensive players didn't even have time to react!"

"Look at this time, Huddlestone tried to send the ball into the penalty area again. Kante intercepted at the front of the penalty area and Manchester United launched a counterattack."

"From Kante's interception to Mata's long pass, the whole process went very quickly, and Bruno's ability to run into gaps was once again demonstrated, which is really surprising."

Bruno took a direct free kick, but unfortunately, the angle of the shot was too straight and was directly confiscated by the opponent's goalkeeper.

………………

"Let's look at the entire goal process again. Bruno's stop was very good, almost a stop. Curtis Davis didn't even have a chance to touch the ball in the whole process, and Hull City The speed of the central defender can never catch up with Bruno’s dribbling speed. This is really surprising, Bruno is too fast!”

"Thanks for your assist!" Bruno thanked him with a smile.

In the first ten minutes of the game, Hull City took the overwhelming initiative. Tiger City's attack brought a lot of trouble to Manchester United's defense, but Bruno's counterattack goal in the 13th minute poured a bucket of cold water on Tiger City's head, making them completely Come to your senses.

Before the start of the season, Mourinho gave Bruno the right to take penalty kicks in the team because he had never missed a penalty kick in his career. He made 9 of 9 free throws in total, with a hit rate of 100%.

The newly promoted Hull City's two consecutive wins were the most surprising. They first defeated the defending champion Leicester City 2:1 in the first round, and then defeated Swansea 2:0 in the second round.

"Mata quickly stepped forward to receive the ball, turned around, and made a long pass directly to the frontcourt."

Bruno also became the most active player on the court. He first fouled Hull City player Clucas in the frontcourt in the 24th minute.

If the ball was not passed well, Bruno would definitely need to adjust again before he could start.

Bruno raised his hands in frustration, obviously dissatisfied with his shot.

As the hottest superstar in world football today, both Phelan and Hull City players are extremely wary of Bruno. But when the game started, they found that they still didn't know enough about Bruno's danger.

With Mata's pass-like kick, Bruno not only stopped it, but also created a chance to counterattack and scored Hull City's goal. This is incredible.

"Klukas' performance this season is pretty good, but unfortunately he met Bruno tonight. He simply couldn't keep up with Bruno's rhythm and pace."

Mourinho deployed his strongest midfield lineup in this game. Kante dragged behind, and Mata and Bruno were separated. These three players ensured Manchester United's advantage in the midfield, and at the same time, Hull City quickly fell into a passive situation.

But in the 28th minute, Bruno's activity finally paid off again. Kanter made a direct pass and found Bruno on the left, creating a one-on-one opportunity.

Facing Clucas directly, Bruno kicked the ball to the baseline very simply and directly. He forced himself to accelerate and overtake. He used his speed advantage to break through Hull City's right midfielder and passed with his left foot in front of the baseline. middle.

Ibrahimovic, who followed up in the middle, easily headed the ball in front of the goal, breaking Hull City's goal again!

Less than half an hour, two goals ahead!
