279 Go to the Bernabeu to chase the stars

Moyes has coached Everton for more than ten years, and has led the team to good results, it cannot be said that Everton has exceeded expectations over the years, but at least it has always been worthy of the value and strength of the whole team, basically stable in the middle and upper reaches of the Premier League, following behind the first group.

It's just that a team like Everton basically doesn't have much power to fight back in front of the giants, and the gap is obvious.

While Everton threatened the United defence with a long ball at Old Trafford, retaining a bit of the traditional English style of play, Rio Ferdinand and Nemanja Vidic, who partnered in centre-back today, also made the Toffees useless with their outstanding performances.

In a passive situation and a situation where the score was behind, Moyes did not change his tricks, and waited for a miracle to happen, or just lose the game with dignity.

Top players and top coaches have similar ambitions, tirelessly pursuing victory and not tolerating failure, like Lippi can promise to resign without winning the Champions League to cut off the retreat, Mourinho is unscrupulous in technical and tactical means for the championship, Ferguson squeezes the team's potential in a domineering way, Pep Guardiola is almost obsessed with perfection, etc., and only with such temperament and ambition can he become a top coach.

Like a lot of famous coaches in England, Redknapp, O'Neill, Moyes, etc., you can say that the teams they coach are not eligible for the championship, but on the other hand, it can also be said that they are not championship coaches themselves, although they are famous, they are completely unrelated to the championship.

When they face opponents who are stronger than themselves, most of them just accept any result with peace of mind, and it is a surprise to win, and it is natural that they can't win.

But if it's a top coach, he won't accept anything other than a win.

Everton repeated the simple style of play to attack the United defence, and then got a repeat defeat, with no flexibility, no better search for change to turn things around.

United were the first to threaten down the left, and Tang Hong's goal naturally tightened the Everton defence's blockade against him, and the striker, who replaced Gareth Bale as the first star in the Premier League at the speed of a rocket, became a presence to be reckoned with by all of United's opponents.

After encountering a tighter and more high-intensity blockade, Tang Hong actively tandem the team's front-court attack, at this time he naturally can no longer attack hard, and at other times Ferguson will inevitably turn a blind eye, but in the extraordinary period when the Champions League knockout round is approaching, the team's strategic goal does not allow the players to come personally!

In the 43rd minute of the game, Tang Hong collided with Shinji Kagawa on the left side of the front field and quickly passed the ball diagonally to the middle of the penalty area.

Wayne Rooney then flicked the ball back to Carrick, who sent in a through ball, and Van Persie cut into the right side of the penalty area and fired a shot that flew straight into the bottom left corner of the net.

Manchester United lead Everton 2-0 at home!

Alex Ferguson demanded a quick start and United were pretty much done in the first half.

The Red Devils' attacking duo is incredibly powerful, and they have taken their advantage to the limit!

After the break, in the second half, United took the initiative to reduce the tempo and strengthen the defence.

It's clear that United don't want to spend too much.

Four days later, the Champions League knockout game at the Bernabeu is the big game they need to unleash with all their hearts!

Tang Hong was replaced in the 60th minute of the game, as the first player to be replaced by Manchester United, when Tang Hong walked to the bench, Tang Hong's family in the box was a little puzzled.

They don't actually care about football, they just pay attention to Tang Hong.

Naturally, I didn't know that Manchester United's substitution was to retain strength, and I hoped that Tang Hong would go to the Bernabeu to fight in a better state.

Van Persie and Shinji Kagawa were then substituted one after another.

Everton's monotonous wing-to-flank tactics failed to make a splash at Old Trafford, with United beating Everton 2-0 at home to make it four wins in a row in the league.

In the same round, Manchester City lost away to the Saints, Southampton suffered a three-game winless run!

Manchester United's lead went from 6 points to 9 points!

The clear advantage in the league will help United turn their focus to the Champions League in the coming period!

When Tang Hong returned home in the evening, he was asked by He Zhuqing if he had a bad time in the team, because he was replaced early.

Tang Hong smiled and explained that Ferguson's substitution was to protect him, and he hoped that he would save his energy to play in the next game, which reassured his family.

The next day, the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, Tang Hong went home early after the post-game recovery training in Carrington, the family was busy, the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner was also rich and a little excessive, Sun Rou and He Zhuqing prepared more than 20 dishes, although each dish paid attention to controlling the portion, but it was still too much.

After Tang Junyao feasted, he couldn't wait to secretly come to Tang Hong to ask for a red envelope, and even Sun Rou was no exception and was asked for New Year's money by him.

In the past few years, Tang Mengxiao has been helping him keep the New Year's money, and I don't know whether it was swallowed by her or whether there is really a small treasury that can be opened by himself in the future, anyway, Tang Junyao wants to be "financially independent" now.

Tang Hong asked him what he wanted to buy for money, but Tang Junyao said that he wanted to give a gift to his little cutie, and he had no money and didn't even have the confidence to go out shopping and eat.

In addition to being convinced, Tang Hong could only give him two thumbs up.

Tang Hong also took out the gift he had bought for his father before and put it in front of Tang Minghui, which made Tang Minghui both surprised and delighted.

On the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year the next day, I saw Tang Minghui from the inside out, in a suit, a coat, a neat tie, and a new watch, as if he was a few years younger all of a sudden.

He Zhuqing wanted to say that his dress was too formal, and they wanted to go to Liverpool's Chinatown today, but after thinking about it, they still didn't say anything.

In Tang Hong's heart, his younger brother Tang Junyao is a very good child, although he is greedy and playful, but his heart is definitely not bad, because he can think of his friends many times, and the most he has sent to China in the past year is to Tang Junyao.

From signed jerseys to scarves and sneakers, to say the least, there are five or ten people each time, and those are all given by Tang Junyao to his classmates who are Tang Hong's fans together.

Therefore, Tang Hong secretly put a bank card in Tang Junyao's schoolbag, and he could use it himself when he returned to China.

The family went to Liverpool to play, Tang Hong still had to go to training, and when Manchester United was preparing for the first leg of the Champions League 1/8 final against Real Madrid, Ferguson focused on defense!

Repeatedly stressed to the team that the counterattack against Real Madrid must be fast and accurate!

Don't have any worries when it's time to foul!

In the past two years, Real Madrid's M Moser defense has been the only one in Europe!

Even the strikers are required to be aggressive and aggressive!

The night before coming to Madrid, Tang Hong had just packed his suitcase at home, but when he saw Tang Mengxiao come to his room, her smile made Tang Hong feel very strange.

"Brother, please do one thing."

Tang Hong was inexplicable and asked: "Something to say, your flattering smile makes me feel a little furious, if it has something to do with Jun Yao, I don't care." ”

He also thought that this sister was going to join forces with him to discipline and restrain Tang Junyao.

Tang Mengxiao came to him and hugged Tang Hong's arm, and said with a smile: "Can you help me get a jersey when you go to the Bernabeu to play?" The autographed kind, and preferably a special message for me. ”

Tang Hong blurted out: "Are you asking me to help you chase stars?" ”

"Uh-huh, okay?"

"Tell me first, let me help you ask which star wants to sign the jersey? Cristiano Ronaldo? Xavi Alonso? ”

Tang Mengxiao's shaking of his head made Tang Hong frown instead: "Who else could it be?" It can't be Pepe, Marcelo, right? ”

"Kaka! Kaka, of course! ”

Tang Hong suddenly realized.

Oh, Real Madrid still has a kaka.

If it weren't for fading out of the main lineup for too long, Tang Hong would have almost forgotten that there was a son of God in Real Madrid.

Tang Mengxiao shook his arm, Tang Hong nodded and said, "I will ask for it, but if people don't give it, I can't help it." ”

Tang Mengxiao nodded hurriedly, pulled down Tang Hong's arm, stood on tiptoe and kissed him on the face, and said, "Thank you, brother!" ”

Tang Hong could only smile bitterly.

The emotions that have been brewing in the past few days of preparing for the war suddenly feel a little off-track.

......

The Champions League is back in flames, and entering the knockout stage is the real feast for giants!

Those small teams that accompany them basically go home, and the rest are either traditional giants or powerful potential dark horses.

When Manchester United went to Madrid, the capital of Spain, the major media in European football focused on the round of 16 match between Real Madrid and Manchester United at the same time!

Last season's Real Madrid had just ended Barcelona's domination of La Liga, but this season things have taken a turn for the worse!

The public conflict between coach Jose Mourinho and Casillas, as well as the intricacies of the undercurrent in the dressing room, have kept Real Madrid's campaign for most of the season accompanied by controversy.

This may be very good news for Manchester United, but there is no doubt that Real Madrid still have the upper hand on paper for both teams.

On the evening of matchday, Manchester United buses pulled into Madrid's football temple, the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium.

Tang Hong looked at the magnificent stadium and wanted to feel the excitement of those players who had the "dream of being a child", but he failed.

Old Trafford is equally grandiose, both world-class stadiums, and for him he is not a hairy boy who has never seen the world, and if he insists on how attractive Real Madrid is, he can't understand it.

But for many players in Latin America, Real Madrid was the most influenced by watching games as children, so it's no surprise that they have a dream of being a child.

When warming up at the Bernabeu Stadium, Tang Hong paid special attention to the players who warmed up on Real Madrid's side.

It's good luck, Kaka is in the squad for the game today, but I don't know if he will start.

When the warm-up was about to end, Tang Hong took the initiative to walk towards Kaka.

His actions made the warm-up players of both teams on the field stop their movements and turn their eyes to him, not knowing what he was going to do!
