Chapter 266: Collapse?

The points advantage shrank to just one point, and the unbeaten streak stayed at the figure of 47 games, and the dream of winning the title unbeaten season was shattered...... Only one day has passed, and Tottenham Hotspur, which was still imposing before, received a series of extremely bad news after losing to Liverpool, and the originally good championship situation became precarious in an instant!

In particular, the end of a 47-game unbeaten run in a league game by the Reds was not only a mental and psychological blow to the Tottenham players, but also gave Chelsea hope of a comeback to win the title – and while a team on a long-run unbeaten run can put a lot of psychological pressure on the players, the opposition will also be fearful of the team when they play against them. And if this unbeaten team suddenly loses www.biquge.info then this huge psychological gap is enough to have a serious negative impact on the morale and spirit of the players, and may even be like AC Milan and Arsenal in the previous life, after the unbeaten giant was terminated, it will usher in a wave of consecutive wins, which will affect the team's next championship situation!

To be honest, the defeat came at a very bad time, as it was the second game of Tottenham's devilish schedule – which had been hit so hard at the start of the devil's schedule, not to mention that Tottenham would have to go head-to-head with the likes of Manchester United, Arsenal and Juventus. No matter how you look at it, the situation facing Tottenham at this time has become extremely serious!

It can be said that if George can't get the team out of the shadow of the defeat to Liverpool as soon as possible and adjust his mentality, then Tottenham is very likely to suffer a wave of consecutive winless games in the following games, thus ushering in a four-big empty ending!

Looking at Liverpool, although the defeat to Tottenham Hotspur only brought the Reds three points, and there is still a difference of as many as eight points between the Reds and fourth-placed Manchester United (note: due to the rise of Tottenham Hotspur, Liverpool did not qualify for this season's Champions Cup, so the Reds' performance in the Premier League is far less miserable than in previous lives), but after the game, almost everyone in Liverpool, from players to fans, fell into a state of ecstasy, celebrating this "great" victory in various public places!

Only a handful of Liverpool players, such as Steven Gerrard and Hyypia, didn't show too much joy at this point. Because in their opinion, Liverpool, who played the main force and had the advantage of being at home, faced Tottenham Hotspur, which was almost a full substitute lineup, actually struggled to win by one goal. Such a result is not worth celebrating at all. Or rather, Liverpool, who would have celebrated so much for such a victory, has fallen to the bottom of the hierarchy!

You know, unless it's a victory between mortal enemies or a key battle, how can a giant be so excited because of a victory over a team that is not as good as itself and has only risen for more than a year?

It was from this moment that Gerrard first doubted his future at Liverpool - is there any point in playing in a team that has no ambition at all, and is as happy as winning a fake version of a strong conversation as if it were winning the league title?

Gerard's psychological changes are here for now, and now let's get down to business. Although the result of the defeat to Liverpool was extremely frustrating for Tottenham, time will not stop moving forward. No, just two days after the Liverpool game, Tottenham Hotspur have an FA Cup semi-final against Manchester United, and the two sides will face off in a fierce battle for a ticket to the FA Cup final at Old Trafford!

With the substitutes playing the full game against Liverpool two days ago, it was natural that George would not be able to keep them playing in a row after exerting a lot of energy. Therefore, in this FA Cup semi-final, George fielded a starting line-up with a mix of main players and substitutes.

Goalkeeper Kathy Keller, right-back Stephen Carr, central defenders Vermaelen and Dawson, left-back Patrice Evra, Speed, Mascherano and Davies form a back three, Mendieta is the midfield commander up front, and Klose and Villa are the duo up front. That's Tottenham's starting eleven for this game!

For Manchester United, with the Champions League out of the picture, the league title hopeless, and the battle for fourth place with Liverpool and Everton in the hands of a considerable initiative, Ferguson naturally sees the FA Cup as the last straw to avoid the Red Devils' big four this season. Not to mention, the lord has always wanted to get some yards back from George's disciple. So in this game, Ferguson naturally sent the strongest lineup in his hand without reservation!

Tim Howard, Gary Neville, Wes Brown, Leo Ferdinand, Heinze, Joaquin, Roy Keane, Scholes, Fortune, Vanney and Wayne Rooney. With the exception of Ryan Giggs, who was unable to play due to injury, United's other main players all started the game. It can be seen that for this game, Ferguson can be said to be imperative!

Ahead of the game, most media and commentators were favoured with Manchester United reaching the FA Cup final. On the one hand, because of Tottenham's new defeat, it is difficult for its players to adjust their mentality to deal with a strong opponent like Manchester United in a short period of time, and on the other hand, because Tottenham is also distracted by the two battlefields of the league and the Champions Cup, it is impossible to concentrate on the FA Cup like Manchester United, and the combat effectiveness is naturally much worse than that of the Red Devils.

In order to make their argument more convincing, these people have also painstakingly summed up a pattern. So far, Ferguson has never lost an FA Cup semi-final!

Therefore, the news that Tottenham Hotspur is about to suffer back-to-back defeats and collapse in the final stages of the season and then get nothing has been very popular for a while, and it has gained a lot of market among non-Tottenham fans.

Although Ronaldo was preemptively poached to Tottenham by George in this life, Manchester United also recruited good seedlings like Joaquin and Rooney to replace them. Under Alex Ferguson's tutelage, young players such as Joaquin and Wayne Rooney have made great strides. The former's sharp side breakthrough and the latter's top-notch impact were brought into full play by the lord and became Manchester United's main means of attack on the field!

For example, in today's game, just five minutes before the opening whistle, Manchester United seized the opportunity to complete a wonderful front-court connection by Joaquin and Rooney - Joaquin accelerated through Evra's defense and sent a 45-degree cross, Rooney, who was inserted into the penalty area from the left, squeezed away the following Vermaelen, and then shot angrily, directly through Casey Keller's ten fingers!

With the excellent performance of Wayne Rooney and Joaquín, Manchester United successfully broke through the door of Tottenham Hotspur in the first five minutes of the game, ushering in a fantastic start!
