Vol 5 Chapter 220: Top battle

After the game, Liverpool and Manchester City lost their hostile attitude before the match. Known players greeted each other, and the atmosphere on the field was harmonious. ◎, x.
From the moment the autonomous referee blows the whistle at the end of the game, the two sides are no longer opponents.
After the game, Wan Sheng also took the initiative to come over and shake hands with Liverpool coach Benitez. The two had no contact in private, but in fact, they admired each other.
Benitez is known as the 'master of tactics'. In 2005, he led Liverpool to the European championship. This championship is enough to let people talk about for many years. That Liverpool is not a strong team, but Benitez has Liverpool brought into the Champions League final and created a '100-year miracle' in the final, defeating AC Milan to win the European Championship. This time it is enough to admire the championship.
Liverpool are not a strong team now, but they have made progress in the European War. Wansheng feels that they should learn more from Benitez.
Benitez also admired Wansheng.
In fact, Wan Sheng ’s current achievements have shocked everyone who knows. After all, he is less than 30 years old. It is enough to be a first-line coach in Europe before 30 years old, let alone lead the team repeatedly. Create a miracle and win the Premier League twice in a row.
Both admired each other, and now the handshake is very affectionate.
At the same time, the atmosphere on the court is also very harmonious.
Morris took the initiative to find a handshake. He photographed Gerrard's arm and expressed his comfort. Gerrard also responded with a smile. The two are teammates of the England team. Despite the competitive relationship, the private relationship is not bad. When Morris first entered the national team, there were no familiar players at all. Gerrard also gave him a lot of help.
Now the two are competing fiercely in the national team. But apart from competition, they are also good friends off the court.
After that, Morris found Hypea and apologized to him, "Sorry, I did that just now, that was not intentional, I just suddenly thought of such a chance", Morris said.
Hypia smiled bitterly and nodded.
There is no contradiction between the two sides, if he has that technology. You will definitely do that on the field. It ’s okay to think about it carefully. Anyone who wears a crotch will feel bad, but the opponent is in the game, and he did n’t intend to do the crotch action against him, and Hypia forgives Murray Sri Lanka.
The two also exchanged jerseys, and then walked towards the player channel together.
The dialogue and friendship between the two was captured by many media cameras, and it was also a gossip in the media news after the game.
—
In the press conference after the game, Wansheng did not bring any players.
The best player in the game is ultimately owned by Morris. Because of his wonderful goal, it will almost certainly become the best in this round, but Wansheng does not intend to bring Morris to the press conference, and he has paid enough attention to Morris. He doesn't need more exposure to the media.
At the press conference, the media received a lot of praise. I still hope that Wansheng would talk about the winning mood and feelings. Many media hope that Wansheng will reveal the big news against Liverpool. At that time, the news outside these fields can also become the focus of attracting fans' attention.
However, Wansheng will not follow the media's mind.
The game won and the players performed well in the game. Wan Sheng is in a good mood, and will naturally not lose to Liverpool.
So there was peace at the press conference.
Before the game, the Liverpool media reporters who touted the "Liverpool Winning Talk" saw that Liverpool lost, and they really suffocated their stomachs. They naturally did n’t want to let go of the victory so much. On the little finger, "Is this a provocation to Liverpool fans", a reporter asked directly.
Wan Sheng just laughed a little and looked at the reporter and said, "That was just my celebration action. After seeing David score, I was very excited and did it unconsciously, if the fans understood it as I'm sorry for the provocation. Everyone knows that people can be forgiven for doing something extraordinary when they are excited. I didn't do it on purpose. "
Speaking of Wansheng still shrugging, he didn't care at all.
Hearing these words, I saw the young Chinese on the stage as if they were taken for granted. Liverpool reporters spit out blood from the stage, and their little thumbs are obviously provocative actions. They were justified by the Chinese as a matter of course. Excited and nervous? Can this be faked?
But Wansheng will definitely not admit it.
Regardless of the actual situation, it is determined to be provocative. As long as he does not admit it, no one will be bored to pursue responsibility. But if he admits that it is provocative, the matter is really big. The FA will intervene in the investigation. As long as there is nothing, he has no reason to cause trouble.
This is a kind of ‘potential-rule’ in football.
Whatever you do, you will do it. In the past, everyone will not be held accountable, but you stand up and admit that you have done it. This is not only to provoke the fans, but it can also be regarded as contempt for the FA. Who else's trouble can you trouble without asking you?
Wan Sheng will not be impulsive to fall into this pit.
After Wan Sheng said a few more words, he left the press conference and said to reporters that it is not necessary. What is important is that Manchester City successfully took three points at Anfield Stadium and further stabilized the league results.
After Wansheng left, Benitez came to the site.
The Spaniard apparently took the time to enter the venue. He didn't want to be interviewed with Wan Sheng, so that as the losing party would not be valued at all, he didn't want to feel that feeling, so he simply came later.
Perhaps this defeat made the Spaniard frustrated with the league. At the press conference, Benitez directly admitted that the team ’s goal of competing for the Premier League this season is basically impossible to achieve. "Our more realistic goal It is to fight for the top four and enter the Champions League next season. "
"Fourth place is our goal now, and we must fight for it. The championship is too far away from us because Manchester United and Chelsea are in excellent condition."
"Our performance in the European arena may be better than the English Premier League. We have a lot of confidence in the European war."
Benitez also admitted that in the game, when Morris scored the second goal, Liverpool basically gave up hope, he saw the team's lack of fighting spirit. "The second goal was fatal. At the beginning of the game, we were able to compete with our opponents, but as soon as the second goal came, the game was over."
After this defeat, Liverpool have 14 points less than Manchester City and it is very difficult to catch up. In addition, they only scored one point in six away games, which is the worst away record in history.
"This home defeat. It is our lack of strength and poor performance. But at home we are very confident. I believe the team will get a lot of points at home."
After Benitez ’s interview, Liverpool captain Gerrard gave another interview. He talked about England ’s rival Morris,
His goal is beautiful, I ca n’t imagine it, I believe others have This feeling. I just want to say that he is no worse than me. If McLaren chooses to let him take my place, I am not surprised at all, because he is a very capable person. "
He then talked about the same topic as Benitez, that is Liverpool's points this season. "We lost too many points away, and playing with teams like Arsenal and Manchester United on the road is always difficult. But the most important thing is, no matter what the game. We have to show more resilience, especially in one goal. Underdeveloped conditions. "
"Showing resilience is a character I have been proud of before, but now people say we haven't shown this. This makes me feel sad. Maybe when we lost the ball, the team lacked confidence and in what games Here, the first ball is always important. "
At this time last year, Liverpool were in the process of a ten-game winning streak, and they only lost one goal in ten games. Gerrard said that now the team must regain this state and momentum, "You can't look too far, but we must remember what we did last season and start an undefeated journey now."
"We have to fight for the top four now. We are currently in seventh place. We know this is not good enough. We had ambitious goals at the beginning of the season, but now, our goal is to return to the top four as soon as possible. You can start thinking about higher goals. "
"This season still has a long way to go. Arsenal, Manchester United and Chelsea will also be visiting Anfield in the second half of the season. After losing to Manchester United, we won five games and now we have to win a longer period of time. Win. "
Gerald did not talk about Manchester City in the end, perhaps because it was Liverpool ’s away round with Manchester City, but this was also understood by the media singing the praises for Manchester City, "The Liverpool captain is disheartened about playing against Manchester City because At Anfield Stadium, they can't find any hope of victory. "
This statement is very marketable, because Manchester City won this game pretty.
But the most watched in this round is not the Liverpool vs Manchester City match, because at the same time there is a classic game of more attention-Manchester United vs. Chelsea!
Manchester United ranks first in the Premier League, Chelsea ranks third in the Premier League, and there is a Manchester City between the two teams. In fact, Manchester United is only three points ahead of Chelsea, which is only the gap of a game.
Before the game Mourinho talked about the referee again!
No matter how arrogant the arrogance before Chelsea and Manchester United is, Mourinho and Ferguson will have a hard time avoiding a big worry in their minds. That is Howard Weber who is the referee of this campaign.
Although 35-year-old Weber has only three seasons of law enforcement experience, but he has no problem, the problem comes from the hearts of the two coaches.
In Mourinho's view, Manchester United has always been the most favored team. He obviously will not forget the favor given to them by the referee Krattenberg in the Manchester United and Tottenham game two seasons ago. In that game, the Tottenham player Mendes was shot by the Manchester United goalkeeper Carol. He hugged the door, but the referee let Manchester United turn a blind eye.
"We don't want the referee to treat us like Tottenham, when Mendes' shot had crossed the line by two meters, and no one saw it." Mourinho said they also don't want to repeat what Portsmouth had received earlier this month. Grievance, "We do not want to be awarded a penalty at the beginning of the game, just as Portsmouth encountered in the first minute of the game against Manchester United. We do not want to encounter any of the above possibilities."
The Portuguese said that they do not want to be favored by referees, but only want a fair playing environment. "We only need some things that are often seen in British football games-fair play and dignity."
Since replacing Boer as the referee of this game, Weber has been under various pressures. Which referee enforces the law is not important to Mourinho, the important thing is that he believes that they have become a tradition of favoring Manchester United, and Chelsea is always the one that is treated specially.
"Usually in football, a team that pays enough to win should win." Mourinho said. "You ca n’t be prejudiced against a team or wear colored glasses for the club ’s boss, coach or player. We want to win when we should win and lose when we should lose, Influenced by external forces. "
Just as the Premier League referees have a preference for Manchester United, they have also formed a bias against Chelsea in recent seasons.
After being sent off with Tottenham team captain Terry, the Chelsea coach thought they were too much. He arranged an opportunity to have a meeting with referee Chief Hackett, and this meeting became an important factor in the replacement of Ball's law enforcement tonight, because after that game, Ball reported to the FA that Chelsea players have been harassing themselves. .
Manchester United manager Ferguson felt he had to say something.
"Weber is a young referee. I think he should have the opportunity to enforce such a big game. I just hope that this game will not have the scenes that have appeared frequently in recent games. I do n’t want to see players surround the referee. Although he is young , But if his penalty is fair, players should not complain. "
After talking about the referee's question, the match between the two teams is officially started.
Against Chelsea, it can be said that it is the best touchstone for Manchester United's midfield strength. After this collision with Chelsea's luxury midfielder, the Manchester United midfielder, which has always been suspected, can pass the test.
In the face of Chelsea's luxurious midfielder, the four-man combination of Giggs, Scholes, Carrick and C-Ronaldo did not show a previously worrying weakness-although the steal ability is not as good as the opponent, it has two sides The breakthrough of the road is superior. This midfield combination is faster and wider than Chelsea, and there will be more changes in the offense.
This also led to Manchester United suppressing Chelsea in the first half.
C-Ronaldo is very active, and Carrick is increasingly showing his worth. But this Manchester United midfielder can compete with the most powerful Chelsea, Guan Jian is still two veterans Giggs and Scholes. As many people have said, the combination of Scholes and Carrick has begun to become a whole, and the brain of this mid-way combination is still the old spicy "ginger head".
Manchester United's offensive is either a long pass transfer or a short pass penetration. The break in the wing is still a straight stop in the middle. All changes are basically directed by Scholes in the center, although Carrick was elected the best player in the game. But it is undeniable that playing alongside Scholes is a major reason for his outstanding performance, and Giggs is also the main factor for Manchester United to gain an advantage in the offensive.
The goal scored by Manchester United in the first half was also started by Giggs from inside to the middle, and then Rooney passed directly to Sa'a. Compared to c-Ronaldo, who wasted opportunities on the right, Giggs's spiciness has brought valuable results to Manchester United.
Although after this test, it was clear that the Manchester United midfielder's four starters could be comparable to the best Premier League midfielder, but the decline in physical strength of Giggs and Scholes in the second half also exposed the hidden worry of over-reliance on veterans.
In the second half, Mourinho achieved a Chelsea counterattack with a classic substitution!
Mourinho replaced Robremi with Robben and took the right attack and defense with Essien. The Chelsea formation became 4312. Robben's breakthrough contained c-Ronaldo. At the same time, Essien alone guarded the right road because of Ghana. People's outstanding performance is safe.
The result of the game was also that Essien indirectly led to the final equalization from the right assist, but this time the protagonist was replaced by Carvalho.
1: 1, this is the final result of the battle at Old Trafford.
After the game, Ferguson lamented that C-Ronaldo, who missed the most shots in the Premier League, repeatedly missed the opportunity, and Van der Sar was not lucky enough. With the tone of the Red Devils worthy of masturbation at the top of the list, it really can't hide the regret of letting Manchester United live or die.
Mourinho retired to celebrate the whole body, "If I were Manchester United, I would also be very disappointed. Because they lost a very big opportunity, a chance to expand our lead to 6 points."
Mourinho did not embarrass the referee ~ EbookFREE.me ~ The only thing that made him uncomfortable, only Carrick was named the best player in the game after the game, "The best player in the game? Of course it is Carvalho. But the real The best should be the Chelsea team doctors, who let Carvalho recover in time within 3 days, creating this great draw. "
This is really a great draw.
Mourinho ’s point of view is exactly the same as that of Wan Sheng, but the Portuguese are sighing, and Wan Sheng said this sentence with a smile from the heart, "I watched the whole game, it was really great, the two teams The performances are very good. In the game, I saw the team's poor place. At the same time, I am more confident in this season's championship! "
The reporters who came to the interview all nodded.
They all understand Wan Sheng's statement, because Manchester United and Chelsea are Manchester City's biggest competitors in the league. Before this round, Manchester City and Manchester United were 2 points apart and only one more point than Chelsea, but Manchester United and Chelsea tied. Manchester City caught up with Manchester United's points, only one goal difference, ranked second in the league, at the same time, Manchester City also have three league points than Chelsea.
In this regard, as "Manchester Stadium" said, "The battle for the Premier League has entered the most intense moment!" (To be continued.)
