On 5 May, the 37th round of the 2017-18 Premier League season kicked off 10 matches, the most notable of which was the Manchester duo's battle for the league title – Manchester City against Huddersfield Town and Manchester United away against Brighton.

In this round, as long as Manchester United wins, regardless of the outcome of Manchester City's current round, they will win the Premier League title this season two rounds earlier (Manchester United and Manchester City have postponed the 31st round).

Therefore, whether it is Mourinho or Dai Zhiwei, the Red Devils are united in taking all three points!

As Manchester United's only rival on the road to the Premier League title, Manchester City's game against Huddersfield, which has been relegated but has no hope of European competition, will not have much incentive to create too much threat to the blue moon who aspire to the Premier League title.

Comparatively speaking, Manchester United will face a different Brighton team, who are currently only one point above the relegation zone, and they will certainly have to fight hard at home to Manchester United.

However, Manchester United are unbeaten in their last eight games against Brighton with five wins and three draws, the last time Brighton beat Manchester United was in 1982, which was also Brighton's only win in 18 games against Manchester United in their history, with five draws and 12 defeats in the remaining 17 games.

Mourinho, who has always been criticized for being conservative, played offensive football in order to get all three points in this game, and three positive Indian strikers, including Dai Zhiwei, appeared in the starting list, which can be seen that the crazy man is also anxious to win the championship.

Manchester United line-up: David De Gea; Valencia, Smalling, Phil Jones, Luke Shaw; Marouane Fellaini, Nemanja Matic, Pogba; Anthony Martial, Dai Zhiwei, Marcus Rashford

Brighton line-up: Ryan; Bruno, Duffy, Dunk, Bang; Proper, Stephens, Conokett, Izquierdo; Grose; Murray

Although Brighton know they should not be Manchester United's opponents, they do not want to be a stepping stone to Manchester United's league title title at home for the sake of relegation.

Just two minutes into the game, Brighton's Stephens won the ball in the middle and slotted the ball to Murray before Fellaini could block it, and the latter's low shot was held by David De Gea.

In order to win the first Premier League title in the post-Ferguson era, Manchester United was not to be outdone, and in the next two minutes, Pogba and Anthony Martial frequently fired from distance, a heavy bombardment was stopped by the opposing team's players, and a cold shot was defused by the opponent's goalkeeper.

The two sides played a lively game, and after fifteen minutes, Brighton's attack was forced to gradually stop and turn to defence.

Football then fell to the feet of the United players for most of the time, and as United's attack began to rise in waves, Brighton's defence became more and more strained, and it seemed that United could score in the next second.

Spurred on by the league title, every Red Devils player burst out with 120 per cent energy!

The players in Brighton's backline felt particularly unlucky today, and if it weren't for their luck and hard work, they would have been beaten by Manchester United by now.

Listen to Sky Sports' commentary and you can get a glimpse of Brighton's dangers -

"Oh! Dai Zhiwei, Dai Zhiwei came over again, he was too fierce, his speed was too fast, and the pass was ...... Oh, alas......"

'Nemanja Matic passes, Dai Zhiwei comes in and shoots...... Damn it! Just raised the beam at the height of a hair's head! ”

Luke Shaw played at left-back today and with his team-mates constantly pulling and pinning up front, he could do his best to play to his speed.

As a left-back, his assists always impress. Inspired by England's practical breakthrough skills, he can be a little fancy, with speed and the physicality to suit the Premier League, as well as a wide field of vision that can even go into the opposition penalty area to shoot.

Luke Shaw's frequent set-edges and constant ball starting, but unfortunately either he didn't pass well, or his teammates didn't catch it well, allowing Brighton to escape many times.

However, there will be a mistake in the hundred.

In the 33rd minute of the game, Martial received a direct plug from Matic in the middle on the left side of the penalty area, and quickly started to kill the opponent's penalty area.

Duffy and Bruno teamed up again, quickly outflanking Anthony Martial's wings.

Anthony Martial skillfully carried the football, lightly controlled the ball between the two of them, looking for a gap to break through, at this time a soft sound came from behind him, and Martial, who had extremely sensitive ears, knew that Luke Shaw was coming, and immediately pulled the football with his left foot, moved his body back, and threw the outside of his left foot to Luke Shaw.

Luke's portrait was a bolt of lightning, quickly rushing past Bruno's side, and the football appeared in front of him at the right time, he accelerated sharply, quickly shook the rushing Bang, and then without a moment's hesitation, quickly knocked into the box.

Dai Zhiwei stared at the football in the middle of the flight with his right foot and stepped violently, and then this force, the waist and abdomen violently exerted, the head, upper body, and lower body twisted in a terrifying way, the left foot and head rushed to the direction of the goal, and most of the body rushed forward, and the afterglow glanced at the goal, and the left foot that had been swung up quickly swung out, and was heavily pumped in the middle of the football, completing the whole action in an instant.

With a loud "bang", the football quickly flew diagonally towards the goal, and in the air, Dai Zhiwei opened his arms, almost at a corner of 90 degrees from the football flight path, and in the whole process of hitting the goal, his people stretched like an eagle falcon pounced on food.

It was a shot that flew straight to the far end of the net, the angle was so tricky, and it was so powerful and fast that Brighton goalkeeper Ryan didn't even have time to make a save, he could only watch the ball run into the net!

“gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooal！”

"Dai Zhiwei! Dai Zhiwei! Dai Zhiwei! Oh my God, this is his 46th goal in the league, it's incredible, genius, genius Dai Zhiwei! Lineker on Sky Sports TV went crazy again, and he couldn't contain his excitement in front of the camera!

"Oh my God!" Lineker held his head and shouted, "Is he going to improve the Premier League Golden Boot record to 50 goals?" ”

And Carragher, the former captain of Manchester United's sworn rival Liverpool, who was the special guest of this game, was also conquered by Dai Zhiwei's performance: "Oh my God, my God! Dai Zhiwei scored a shocking football, and his performance was really not on the same level as other strikers in the Premier League. It's so brutal! ”

Mourinho, who was on the bench, saw this goal, his face was stunned for a moment, and then he opened his mouth and laughed, and then hugged the assistant coach next to him and jumped up and down together, without the demeanor of a championship coach at all.

Because at this moment, Mourinho has realized that the possibility of Manchester United winning this game is very high, and after winning this game, Manchester United does not care about the result of another Manchester City game.

As long as they win, they will be champions!

"Well done, Dai!" Manchester United's players also completely pounced on Dai Zhiwei, Red Devils captain Valencia hugged Dai Zhiwei for the first time, followed by Fellaini, Martial, Smalling, and then jumped into the crowd one after another.

When Dai Zhiwei rushed up to hug him in Valencia, he even saw a trace of tears in the eyes of this tough guy who would not be defeated no matter what the situation.

Manchester United have been away from the Premier League title for too long!

Manchester United celebrated for a long time, everyone was cheering and jumping, and finally the referee had to come in to get the United players back on the pitch as soon as possible.

When the game resumed, the Brighton players were completely deflated, they just didn't want to be a stepping stone to Manchester United's championship, they lost their fighting spirit after the goal was breached, and they didn't think about taking all three points before the game anyway.

It is with this mentality that Brighton, who are playing at home, soon face the danger of conceding a goal again!

In first-half stoppage time, Pogba advanced the ball to the front of the field and sent it to the feet of Dai Zhiwei, who was free from the defense.

Nemanja Matic was the first to pick up, and Anthony Martial was also plugged in at the same time, and the three-line attack unfolded, and the running of the two instantly stirred up a lot of holes in Brighton's defensive line.

Dai Zhiwei did not choose to stop the ball, but as soon as he missed it, the ball rolled directly between his legs and towards Anthony Martial, who was inserted on the left.

Anthony Martial's shot after cutting inside doubled United's lead.

2:0！

"This doesn't count as an assist?" Dai Zhiwei was still discussing with Matic during the celebration.

"Hehe, why don't you pass it again in the second half?" Anthony chimed in with a smile.

When the midfielder walked into the dressing room, both Mourinho and the Red Devils were telling jokes in twos and threes, because they already knew that the game was basically won.

This means that Manchester United's first Premier League trophy in the post-Ferguson era is just around the corner!

However, the Brighton players told the Reds that it was too early to celebrate, and after the Reds took advantage of the half-time break to celebrate, they gave United a blow as soon as they came up at home.

Brighton's first attack after the start of the second half came close to finding the back of the net when Bon's corner was headed away by David De Gea.

However, it didn't take long for the Red Devils to completely kill the suspense of the game, and at the same time the suspense of the 2017-2018 Premier League champion team -

In the 69th minute, Manchester United once again penetrated Brighton goalkeeper Ryan's ten fingers, Lindelof sent a wonderful long ball in his own penalty area, Dai Zhiwei headed the ball on the penalty line, and Rashford stabbed the goal - it was also the England striker's 10th Premier League goal of the season!

3：0！

“goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooal！”

When the score was 3-0, the Red Devils fans who went to the Farmer Stadium to watch the game live, and the Manchester United fans who watched the game live in front of the TV couldn't help but stand up and cheer!

They have waited too long for their Premier League title!

Since the retirement of Alex Ferguson in the 2012-13 season, Manchester United has become a joke among the Premier League giants, with a record of 7th, 4th, 5th, and 6th in the Premier League in recent years, and the Red Devils' worst result in the previous 21 years of Premier League journey was also the third place in the Premier League!

Proud Red Devils fans can't stand the humiliation of falling off a precipice!

There were only two minutes and 120 seconds of stoppage time, but in the eyes of the Red Devils fans and the Red Devils, it looked so long and so impatient.

Finally, the referee's whistle sounded, and the Brighton manager took the initiative to walk to Mourinho, and he wanted to congratulate his opponent as soon as possible.

Only among the managers know how much pressure there is in this position!

"Congratulations, thank you!"

"Thank you!" Mourinho has now forgotten nothing but words of thanks, and this Premier League title is no less than the excitement he was when he first joined Chelsea to win the title!

"We are champions, we are champions!"

"We won this title from Manchester City!"

"Wow! Great! ”

Although Manchester is not too close to Brighton & Hove, there are still nearly 10,000 Manchester United fans flocking to Farmer Stadium.

At this time, the sea of Manchester United's red jerseys completely flooded the Farmor Stadium, and both the Red Devils fans in the stands and the Red Devils players on the pitch shouted "We are the champions" and hugged each other.

"It's really revealed......"

Dai Zhiwei only felt that his teammates around him were cheering like crazy, relatively speaking, he was the most normal one in order to maintain his image, but unfortunately someone soon surrounded him.

"Day, we are the champions, this is our third Premier League title and the most important one!" Valencia hugged Dai Zhiwei and put sweat on his jersey, "Thank you, if it weren't for you, there would be no championship!" ”

"Don't say that, Antonio, you're doing a great job too! Fight with what I have! Dai Zhiwei turned around and found that Valencia, a tough guy, actually had red eyes at this time.

He knew that these were tears of joy.

Valencia is under a lot of pressure as captain, with the retirement and departure of the bigwigs who shielded him in front of him during the Alex Ferguson era, and now there are only a handful of players left in the Red Devils team who have experienced Ferguson's glory days, and he has been terrifying that he will become the most failed captain in Manchester United's history.

Now it seems that it will definitely not.

Manchester United's substitutes, who did not play in this game, also rushed to the stands with their players in the stadium for the first time, and celebrated their first title of the season with their fans!

With the addition of Dai Zhiwei and Valencia, all Manchester United fans chanted the names of their champions, and the most famous victory song - "We Are the Champions" reverberated at the Farmer Stadium for a long time!

After half an hour of celebration with the fans, the scene gradually calmed down, and the podium was already set up, and the lights on the scene suddenly converged on the rostrum, and the FA and Premier League sponsors also stood on the edge of the podium in suits.

Manchester United fans were already waving the huge flag with excitement, and the stands were cheering and chanting, completely ignoring the hoarse voices.

"Now we have the Champions League Cup, Manchester United, come in!"

"We are champions, we are champions!"

"Manchester United! Manchester United! Manchester United! Manchester United! Manchester United ......"
