Chapter 167: One Hundred and Sixty-Seven:
Manchester United's away game against Stoke City was played on the afternoon of the 25th London time, Manchester City won Everton 2-0 a day earlier, and five wins and one draw in six rounds of league games ranked first with 16 points, and Manchester United won all five games in second place.
There are still two hours left before the game time, and the next door is already pouring cold water and cursing blessings.
[In order to make the league more watchable, in order to save the suspense to the end, kneel and beg the city in the sky to give power!! ]
[Which fan are you upstairs?] I usually call us potters, but I changed my mouth when I came to the door! Don't talk about the city in the sky, it's useless for you to call the city of God! ]
[Manchester City fans give you wishing you best, don't take a day trip to the top of the table, at least let us enjoy it for a week!] ]
[β¦β¦]
The Red Devils fan looked silently at the door next door.
Don't toss, it's useless.
Leander was able to take the whole team off at Blackburn Rovers, let alone Manchester United!
Instead of pinning your unrealistic hopes on Stoke City, you should enjoy the moment at the top of the table, after all, it will go down later!
The game started at half past three in the afternoon London time, and it was already more than eleven o'clock in the middle of the night in Beijing time, although it was not early, compared with the usual two :45 in the morning and three :45 in the morning, it was already quite humane, and the fans were ready to turn on the TV and turn on the computer at half past ten, and by eleven o'clock, the signals of the major live broadcast platforms had been connected, and the commentators began to make pre-game predictions.
CCTV bought the broadcast rights of all 38 rounds of Manchester United this season, although the opponent this time is not a giant, Stoke City's first five rounds of table xiΓ n is still okay, they have two wins, two draws and one loss, and they are ranked in the first half of the Premier League with eight points, whether it is a point win or a goal difference, Manchester United is eight streets behind, but, what if there is an upset? Manchester City, for example, Chelsea are still looking forward to it, and the Gunners, who were bloodied by the Red Devils in the third round, are also hoping to see a miracle.
Before this game, the reporter interviewed some of the Premier League managers to hear their views.
Professor Arsene Wenger said: "Tony Polis led Stoke City very well, they even qualified for the Europa League, although Manchester United are strong, but there are no absolutes on the pitch, I want Stoke City to show their style, Manchester United without Kaka and Rooney is not so terrible! β
Manchester City boss Roberto Mancini said: "Stoke City are playing at home, with the encouragement of 30,000 fans, they should be able to show their team style and show the Red Devils that they are great! β
Chelsea boss Villas-Boas was also interviewed, but he did not answer questions from reporters, and he directly diverted the topic. When asked by reporters who you think will win the match between Manchester United and Stoke City, and predicting how many points the score will be, Villas-Boas said that it is none of his business whether others win or lose, and that his task is to lead Chelsea to the quadruple.
β¦β¦
Although the British media is a typical example of watching the excitement and not thinking much of a matter, the reporters who went to interview him wanted to beg him to shut up.
If Manchester United maintains this momentum and wins all the way, the Premier League title will not be your share at all, brother!
Not to mention the champion, if you want to win the runner-up, you have to fight Manchester City!
Don't mention the Quadruple Crown.
It's a prospect to talk about once, it's boring to talk about it all the time, and it's embarrassing if the four major ones are empty at the end of the season!!
Of course, the reporter friend can only think about it in his heart, he didn't dare to say it!
Before the start of the game, the commentary specifically mentioned the evaluation and expectations of the coaches for the game, and the British side was more tactful, CCTV directly dismantled the station, and after reading a few paragraphs, they cruelly debunked the truth.
"It's because Manchester United are too fierce, if they continue to lose the momentum, other clubs can't chase after them, so no matter who it is, they want someone to stand up and stop the Red Devils, we all know how difficult it is!"
"Objectively speaking, this game is indeed the best chance, first of all, Kaka is still recovering from injury, Rooney is suspended, De Gea injured his right shoulder in the game against Benfica, I heard that it is not strict, it is difficult to say whether this game will start."
'Manchester United have had a lot of games this time, having just played in the EFL Cup the other day and going to Switzerland to take on Basel in the middle of next week. There can be no mistakes in the Champions League, even if it is the group stage, it must be treated with caution, because the cup is always easier to upset than the league, there is almost no room for adjustment, and if you lose two games, you may face elimination. β
The commentary went from the league to the Champions League, and then the conversation changed to talk about the situation of the England national team.
"This past week, the biggest news in English football was a joint protest by fans demanding Capello to step down, and the manager was really wronged to do this, and he didn't escape if others lost and quit class."
Because of Leander's special existence, the CCTV commentary is a little biased towards Manchester United, and they can turn a blind eye, but on this kind of issue, they still don't dare to talk nonsense, and the fans are much freer.
[Capello is this kind of personality, he has a decision in his heart, he will not listen to other people's opinions, he deals with problems relatively simply and rudely, to put it bluntly, he is a dictator like the emperors of ancient times. ]
[Right or wrong, Capello didn't handle this well, he dug a pit and buried himself!] The whole world knows the virtue of the British tabloids, and also knows that the British fans are hooligans, if you can still 5:0 or 6:0 after kicking people out, you won't make this kind of process. ]
[It's good to get used to it, the England national team always has two states, most of the time it's meow, and it takes several times to evolve to the state of the Three Lions!] ]
[After all, it's the Chinese team in Europe!] Just win, don't be poor! ]
[β¦β¦]
True fans are still very concerned about Capello's incident, and it doesn't matter if they only watch the "stage fans" of large-scale events like the World Cup, Leander has a lot of opportunities to play after arriving at Manchester United, anyway, the national team has no major tournaments for the time being, and it doesn't matter if you don't get in or not!
Besides, the local fans who are most concerned about the national team table will definitely change their methods to achieve their goals, and don't mix them across thousands of mountains and rivers, the British media and the public are very strong!
[Capello's matter will be discussed slowly later, or will I say that this game, I have already bet, Manchester United away 6:1!] ]
[I guess 6:3, the starting list has been posted, Manchester United goalkeeper is Lindegaard, although I believe in Don's ability to score goals, it's hard to say how many goals will be conceded!] ]
[Our goal is clear: always score one more goal than our opponents!] ]
[I was worried that the No. 2 goalkeeper wouldn't be able to carry it, but I thought it was okay again, there were a lot of people in the midfield, and it was not easy to collapse, Lindegaard was more than 1.9 meters tall, and his air defense should be good, Stoke City was called Sky City because the players were tall and had strong header ability? ]
[Many of the goalkeepers are 1.9 meters, brother!] You think De Gea doesn't have that height? ]
Before the players entered the field, both the commentators and the fans were lazy, and the atmosphere was hot when they came out of the tunnel with the little caddies.
"Okay, the sixth round of the 2011-12 Premier League season Stoke City's home game against Banba Manchester United is about to start, and we see Stoke City's home stadium, the Britannia Stadium, which can accommodate nearly 30,000 spectators, and it is full today."
"Stoke City, playing at home, lined up in a four-four-two formation, with Begovic as the goalkeeper and Wilkinson, Shawclos, Woodgate and Wilson at the back from left to right; The midfield is also a four-man line-up, Pennant, Whelan, Delap and Etherington; Vorster and Crouch are at the front! Peter Crouch, who came to Stoke City from Tottenham before the transfer market closed, paid a transfer fee of Β£10 million to get him, which is not a high price in football, but is the most expensive player in the history of Stoke City club!! β
Those who are purely watching the excitement and watching the stars are sprayed.
Listening to you blow for a long time, the most expensive player is 10 million...... Much worse than Manchester United!
I also conservatively estimated that it would be 5:0, and I knew that it would be 10:0, explaining the sinkhole!
No matter how many times you explain, there are always people who forget that the results of the game and the value of the players are not completely equal, look at the South Korea-Japan World Cup, Brazil's top stars also kicked the Chinese team a 4:0, you compare the value to see!
After all, the commentator is experienced, although he saw such a funny message, he still couldn't help but squirt out, and after reading Stoke City's starting list, they turned their attention to Manchester United, who was playing away.
"The Red Devils lined up 451 in this game, goalkeeper Lindegaard, and the defense from left to right were Valencia, Samba, Ferdinand, and Evra; There are five people in the midfield, Nani, Anderson, Fletcher, Ashley Young and Ryan Giggs, and there is only one arrow in the front! He's the man who scores goals! β
"Although David De Gea, Wayne Rooney and Kaka are not available on Manchester United's side, the good news is not for nothing, Rio Ferdinand's return has made the defence a lot stronger. Speaking of which, Manchester United and Stoke City have also played each other a lot, with a total of 93 times in history, with the Red Devils holding the advantage of 36 wins, 31 draws and 26 defeats. Since Stoke City reached the Premier League in 08, the Red Devils have won all six legs of the league in three seasons, and although they have lost a few big players, they still have a considerable chance of winning. β
[Commentary you come out!] I promise to kill you! Can't you say these numbers earlier? I've already bet on it! ]
[These numbers are available on the Internet, don't you even watch the event preview?] Don't look at what bets you make? ]
[To be on the safe side, it's good to bet on Manchester United to win, it's definitely profitable, the score is too difficult to predict.] ]
[If I am Tang Rolling, I will immediately sign a contract with Bo Cai Company, how much money will I give if I lose a game, and I will cry to death in an upset!] ]
β¦β¦
Unaware that the fans were naughty again, Leander stood on the Britannia Stadium and waited for the game to begin.
Now that the game is about to start, the commentator decided to throw two bombshells to blow a wave for the Red Devils.
"Use two sets of numbers to tell you how strong Manchester United is this season. The Premier League has a record of scoring 22 goals in the first six rounds of the league, which was set by Newcastle in the 94-95 season, no team can challenge for so many years, Manchester United brushed out 7:0, 6:3, 10:2 in the first three rounds of this season, turning the Premier League's strongest record into 23 goals in the first three rounds of the league, which is almost impossible to break! β
"The second number is that the legendary Alan Smith set a personal record for goals, he scored in the first eight league games of the 88-89 season, because Leander took a break in between, a record he couldn't break, but the Premier League scorers list this season must be very good, continuing this momentum, absolutely a record high."
"So that's it, and the game begins."
Because the players are mainly piled up in the midfield, Manchester United is a routine of defensive counterattacks, controlling the rhythm, stabilizing the field, not letting the opponent take the ball comfortably, and once there is a chance, he will make a long pass to find Leander, and instantly switch to crazy rush mode to directly tear the defense line.
The basic routine is here, and at the beginning of the game, the Red Devils were still stable.
Originally, the first goal should not have come so quickly, but it was still to blame Stoke City for being too waveful, and just over two minutes into the game, defender Jonathan Woodgate made a mistake in clearing the ball, and Leander got the ball comfortably. There were two defenders closer to goal, the closest being Wilkinson, who was about to reach for a hook and before he could touch it, Leander struck it in the direction of the Stoke City gate.
The speed is not fast, the angle is very positive, and it feels that it is not difficult to save, so there is a commentary and bold prediction, this ball is a pity!
"He shouldn't just get up with his feet, just use his speed to break through to form a single knife, so that the threat will be more ......" The big word didn't come out, the ball suddenly fell, at this time Begovic had already jumped, he wanted to retract his legs in the air, block or clamp the ball, but the action after the jump was difficult to control, he did not succeed.
The ball went under Begovic's crotch and hung beautifully in the net!
βalοΌβ
"Just three minutes into the game, Leander scored, and it looked like it was not threatening, but it paralyzed Begovic and Manchester United got off to a good start again! This gift package is from Woodgate! β
"The lad looked very annoyed, he made a mistake and put the ball at the feet of Leander, who is Leander? He is the king of newcomers in the Premier League, the top scorer last season, and the winner of the Golden Boot! This shot was so accurate! β
The commentary is still sighing, the field has restarted, Stoke City's possession, but they obviously haven't come out of the blow of losing the ball, accidentally encountered a steal in the midfield, the lord said, get the ball and shoot if you have a chance, and find Andel if you don't have a chance. Giggs kicked a beautiful through ball, Leander suddenly started to change the speed and was ready to pick it up, because the deterrent was still there, Wilkinson panicked, he reached out and tugged, grabbed Leander's pants, and didn't let go!!
Daddy Dragon has been torn off his jersey several times, and he has experience in pulling and deforming, and this is the first time that he has worn his pants.
Because he rushed too hard, half of his pants were torn off in an instant, and the live broadcast camera accidentally photographed the tight fat man wearing inside.
It was a surprise that it was a four-cornered !!
The main color is pure black, with a cute expression on it, stick figures, similar to this: $_$
Eyes printed with money symbols on both sides of the ass balls.
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
Wilkinson was a little panicked, he didn't dare to pull it anymore, he let go suddenly, Daddy Dragon felt the coldness of his ass, he looked down-
it! In order to win, he actually made such a shady trick!
Leander flicked the ball towards Ashley Young while reaching for his pants to keep it from falling, and although the salvage was timely, some images were etched into the fans' minds.
[Playback!] Kneel and beg for a slow-motion replay!! ]
[Stoke City's cowards, can't you pull it more?] ]
[My pants are all off, and you won't let me see the size?! ]
