Chapter 460: Nine Consecutive Wins and the Victory Ceremony

Nine wins in a row

After confirming the goals for the season, Liverpool carried out a "division of labor + cooperation" model.

Gerrard naturally had to work harder as the captain, but Tang Wu, the main goalkeeper, had a break in the League Cup and FA Cup.

Chelsea's draw showed others that the Blues were not invincible, and it was an opportunity for the united Reds to go head-to-head and put on a beautiful chase in front of Premier League fans around the world.

On October 25, after defeating Crystal Palace 2-1 to advance to the round of 16 of the League Cup, Liverpool opened the utilitarian mode of God blocking and killing God, and Buddha blocking and killing Buddha.

Starting with 1-0 West Ham United on 29 October, Liverpool won six consecutive 1-0 wins in November.

League 1-0 Aston Villa, 1-0 Portsmouth, 1-0 Manchester City; League Cup 1-0 Middlesbrough; Champions League 1-0 Anderlecht and Real Betis.

Liverpool won consecutive games and won like a rainbow, and the team played utilitarian football to the fullest.

By December, Liverpool were firmly in second place in the league. With two games in hand, the gap on Chelsea has been reduced to four points.

That doesn't bode well for Chelsea.

Four points would mean Liverpool win both games in less than one game, and the Blues would be in top of the league.

Speaking of which, this is a "two-game losing streak" for the Blues. They lost 1-0 in the Champions League group stage and then lost to Manchester United in the following league in the same way.

In the past, Chelsea have always bounced back after a loss, but this time at Old Trafford they won the content but still lost the result.

Jose Mourinho has reason to be relieved by a defeat because the stats are satisfying. With a 21-to-9 shot ratio between Chelsea and Manchester United, 54 per cent possession to 46 per cent and 9 to 5 corners, United fought with just 25 tackles and 19 fouls in a bloody fight.

'If you look at the performance in the second half, no one will believe that this is Old Trafford and we completely suppressed the opponent. I think you can see why we're the defending champions, why we're leading the league and I'm sure we're going to win this season. ”

But Mourinho must have sensed something was wrong, as with the Champions League group stage opponents, who scored one goal and then defended it, with the dominant Chelsea unable to win the game.

How many goals conceded in a row is not too worrying, Chelsea's midfield strength is there, there is a lot of room for adjustment, but two consecutive games without a score, missed opportunities again and again are the most alarming signals: you can't score goals, the most crucial stat (goals) can't compare to the opponent, it's useless to say anything.

Counting the chances Chelsea have wasted in two games, it's almost in double digits. Drogba, Frank Lampard, Del. Orno and Gudjohnsen both had chances to shoot from inside the box. But the end result was the same, either off the woodwork or on the body of Van der Sar.

Ironically, failing to take advantage of opportunities has been a common problem for Manchester United, but this time a new owner has been attached.

The Reds had fewer chances than the Blues at full, with Ruud van Nistelrooy's volley in front of goal being the best of all.

But it was a big surprise that he scored a goal for Manchester United, who was widely regarded as a young man who was not in good form.

After Manchester United's 3-2 win over Fulham on 1 October, trouble came for the 21-year-old.

On the night after the game, Ronaldo and his cousin were hanging out at the bar, where they met two French Afro-Caribbean women.

According to an eyewitness who was present at the time, the two French women apparently did not have official jobs. Before Xiao Xiao Luo came to the bar, they had been drinking in the bar for a long time.

Around 1am, Ronaldo and his cousin returned to their booked room, which was said to cost £2,500 a night. Shortly after the Portuguese returned to their house, the two French women arrived.

Perhaps it was the exotic atmosphere that fascinated the young Portuguese teenager, or perhaps it was the double pleasure of winning and alcohol that made Xiao Xiaoluo let his guard down.

Thirty hours later, the two women came to the hospital to find a doctor to check their bodies, and reported the case to the police through the doctor's mouth, saying that they had encountered Xiao Xiaoluo's QJ.

This caused an uproar in Manchester.

Ronaldo has always been promoted by Manchester United as a "good man" and a "sunny boy", and now he is caught in the QJ case, which will not only affect his personal image, but also affect his future career.

It wasn't until 20 days later that the News of the World made the investigation public.

The report shows that Ronaldo is likely to have been framed by two women, but the Portuguese guy has also admitted to the police that he did have sex with the two that night.

Xiao Xiaoluo said that he did have a relationship with the two ladies one after another, and he was also with his cousin at the time. But he insisted that it all happened voluntarily and not under his own compulsion.

This case is full of suspicions, and in the end, Xiao Xiaoluo was successfully exonerated from the crime.

But it is undeniable that Xiao Xiaoluo, a good boy who was originally "pure" and "sunny" in the eyes of outsiders, also joined the "roast chicken family" without exception. This will undoubtedly expose him to public opinion for a long time to come.

"Hey, do you see? He's the cristiano with a human face and a beast's heart! ”

"That's right, it's disgusting! Private life is so indecent! ”

That's what this society is.

Son B does not change the money when he turns back, and it is difficult for a woman from a good family to climb over the wall.

A five-second man like Rooney, who has a cannon in five days and a small cannon in three days, whenever it is reported that he and his childhood girlfriend appear in public, the media will report: "... Wayne went shopping, eating, and shopping with her again... It looks like Wayne is starting to try to live a peaceful life, let's bless them..."

And Xiao Xiaoluo's situation is completely opposite.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that with Xiao Xiao Luo's handsomeness and ability, as well as his status and income at Old Trafford, there is no need to force two vulgar fans to serve his little Luo at all.

But the media doesn't care about that.

These media who like to chase after the wind and catch the shadows and reverse right and wrong like this kind of nonsensical news the most, they constantly rub Xiao Xiaoluo's popularity, and constantly update the latest status of the two "victims", which makes Xiao Xiao Luo tireless.

It was under such pressure of public opinion that Ronaldo proved himself with an "unattainable" header in the crucial battle against Chelsea.

When they saw the young man who kept pounding his chest with his right fist and roaring angrily in front of the camera, the fans were a little in a trance, it turned out that he was only a 21-year-old teenager.

In comparison, Rooney's performance was somewhat inferior.

The other day, former boxing champion Tyson, who claims to be "the worst man on the planet", placed Old Trafford.

Tyson attaches great importance to Lu Xiaopang, who was born in a boxing family, "I want to meet Rooney. I've been watching him play Manchester United lately. He's always getting into trouble on the field. I can understand some of his actions. ”

In this regard, Tyson gave the grumpy Lu Xiaopang on the field an idea: "When you want to lose your temper, count from 1 to 10." ”

After learning this trick, Lu Xiaopang's temper is indeed small. But correspondingly, his attacking power is not as good as it was at the beginning of the season.

Some Red Devils fans laughed and said: "Now Wayne is in front of the club, and he is used to counting from 1 to 10. ”

After the win against Chelsea, Ronaldo was in high spirits when he faced the media interview.

"Sir Alex Ferguson told me that you don't have to deal with these clowns when someone wants to lower your state and get your money by wronging you. You just need to prove yourself in your field of expertise. It's an honor that I've done it now. ”

"I felt so happy after the goal, the gloom of these days has been swept away, and I even felt that I couldn't prevent that goal even if TOM came."

Looking at Xiao Xiaoluo, who was full of energy in the newspaper, Tang Wu also nodded frequently, admiring him.

After Xiao Xiaoluo's matter was reported, Tang Wu sent a private email to Xiao Xiao Luo.

The email didn't say anything, just a few photos of Tang Wu and Zhou's good life attached to it.

After eating a large wave of dog food, Xiao Xiaoluo finally understood Tang Wu's intention: Boy, you should find a girlfriend!

In fact, Xiao Xiao Luo just lost his father more than a month ago.

The pain of losing his father made him unable to extricate himself, and this is why he used "sex" to drown his sorrows.

Tang Wu's photo of Xiao Xiao Luo was first a photo with Zhou Haohao in London, and gradually, the background of the photo of the two became the port of Liverpool, the Great Wall of China, and football stadiums all over the world.

Every time Tang Wu and Zhou Haohao arrive at a new stadium, they will take a group photo with the football field as the background.

When he saw that Tang Wu had a "virtuous helper" who supported him so much, Xiao Xiaoluo finally had an epiphany.

Soccer players are not ascetics, football and sex are both necessary things, but the question is what to choose.

Tang Wu provided Xiao Xiaoluo with a solution to the problem: as long as you have a fixed partner, you will not interfere with your career because of this problem.

But in the end, Xiao Xiaoluo did not completely accept Tang Wu's "proposal", but chose a new path according to Tang Wu's suggestion: to change girlfriends frequently.

Although Xiao Xiaoluo changed his girlfriend more frequently in the following days, every time he X acted "legally". Of course, that's a story for later.

By December, the Premier League was gradually returning to the pattern and order of last season.

Chelsea and Liverpool still occupy the first and second positions, while the third and fourth places have also become Manchester United and Arsenal.

In less than a month, that familiar Premier League is back. With the deepening of the league, the dark horse lifted the veil, and the strong team survived the predicament. After all, strength dominates everything on the football field, Chelsea, Manchester United, Arsenal, including Liverpool, who are in second place with two games less, they are the protagonists of the Premier League.

On November 25, Best died of illness.

In the new round of league games, all matches are preceded by a minute of silence in honour of the legend of English football.

For one minute, there was silence, and after one minute, everyone, including the fans and players, remembered the warm applause of the whole stadium. In this way, everyone saw off Best and sent their final greetings to the football legend.

Northern Ireland's Secretary of State for Sport, David Brown. Hansen said the new stadium in Belfast, the capital of Northern Ireland, will likely be named after the late British football legend George Brown. Best's name.

Best was born in Belfast and rose to fame with Manchester United in the English First Division at the time.

"It's clear that Best's life means a lot to a lot of us in Northern Ireland," Hansen told the BBC, "and people in Northern Ireland and the UK as a whole want to commemorate Best's life in a positive way." He is one of the greatest stars of all time, and he has brought a lot of glory and joy to the whole world. ”

To this end, at the Ballon d'Or ceremony on 29 November, Pure Red frontman Michael Hucknal held the Red Devils' first Ballon d'Or winner, legendary Denis Hucknal. Law walked onto the stage. They dedicated an "old friend" to the England star, who passed away last week.

In this awards ceremony, the most anticipated thing is the final victory of the Golden Globe Award.

On this night, the center of gravity of football all over the world is tilted towards Paris. At 7 p.m. French time, all the powerful figures of international football gathered at the Théâtre l'Espace Cardin in Paris to celebrate an evening that belonged to Tang Wu.

The award ceremony begins at 7 p.m. local time in France. Michelle. Platini, Dennis. Law, Blatter, Rossi, Zidane... Football superstars as you can recall, almost without exception, attended last night's Ballon d'Or.

The awards ceremony also has a regular red carpet ceremony, and every guest has to walk a long red carpet before entering the awards venue.

When Tang Wu walked across the red carpet wearing a suit and holding Zhou Haohao's hand, a frantic shouting sounded outside the fence two meters away.

“TOM,TOM,TOM,TOM!!!”

These fans from all over the world frantically shouted Tang Wu's name, trying to pull their idols outside the fence to take pictures or sign autographs. Although they knew that this was impossible, they still spared no effort to work hard again and again.

Zhou Haohao should have entered with Tang Wu's arm, but when he walked to the carpet, Tang Wu deliberately interlocked his fingers with the other party, and even swayed them in front of the camera.

In the "click" flash, Tang Wu and Zhou Haohao declared their "sovereignty" to each other. For the two, tonight is not so much an awards party as a marriage between the two.

Before the ceremony began, the guests gathered in the lobby of the theater to chat quietly. Xiao Luo gathered beside Tang Wu, and the two talked earnestly.

If there are no exceptions, tonight's Ballon d'Or will be split between the two of them. Therefore, the cameras of major media are also aimed at the two, eager to lie next to the two and eavesdrop on the conversation.

The arrival of the big four of international football, Blatter, Platini, Beckenbauer and Rummenigge, broke the calm of the hall. These four people are some of the most influential figures in football in Europe and around the world, and people are focusing on this focus and paying tribute to the four of them.

And when the former golden boy Rossi came to the ceremony, he also showed his extraordinary influence. Rossi's arrival caused almost everyone present to start conversing in Italian, including the conservative French, of course.

After Platini's opening remarks, the Ballon d'Or ceremony officially began.
