When will Manchester United get back on track? (Expand piece) Xinhua News Agency reported that in the early morning of August 28, in the second round of the English League Cup, Manchester United tied 2:2 with the English League Two team Greensby from the fourth-level team, and was eventually eliminated in the penalty shootout. The "Red Devils" in the new season are still unable to lift their spirits. They are no longer the same as the former kingly army that dominates Europe.

Before the start of this season, Manchester United, who hopes to make a breakthrough, spent 230 million euros, and introduced Cunya for 74.2 million euros, introduced Mbermo for 75 million euros, introduced Sheshko for 76.5 million euros, and introduced Diego Leon for 4 million euros. They were also prepared to sign Brighton midfielder Baleba for 100 million euros, but no agreement was reached in the end.

Such investment is considered a big deal even in the Premier League, which is spending money like water. However, since the first round of the league, Manchester United still cannot find any feeling. After two rounds of the game, they have not won one game, with one draw and one loss ranking 16th, which is no different from the previous seasons.

In the early morning of August 28, Manchester United ushered in the second round of the English League Cup. The opponent was the unfamous English League Two team Greensby. As a result, goalkeeper Onana performed poorly and was scored two goals in a row by his opponent, and once fell behind 0:2.

Such a result is really embarrassing for many Manchester United stars. They chased after the game in the second half. Mbermo scored a long shot outside the penalty area, and Maguire tied the ball before the end of the game. In the penalty shootout, both sides shot at each other for 13 rounds, Cunya and Mbermo lost penalty kicks, and the "Red Devils" were eventually eliminated.
