Chapter 1160: Klose in good form
Before Manchester City's local derby away to Manchester United, there wasn't much media hype about glory.
Ferguson didn't spit on Glory, and none of the other United players used Glory as a target.
Ferguson's comments were only for Manchester City.
This may also be the example of what Manchester United has learned.
In the past, when they talked about Glory, the result was that Glory performed better in the game, and Manchester United died a miserable death.
So they realized that it was useless to provoke Rongguang in their failures, and the psychological tactics used against ordinary people did not work on Rongguang at all.
That doesn't mean much other than wasting saliva.
So whether it is Ferguson, or other Manchester United players, or the celebrities who support Manchester United, they have remained silent on Glory.
The media are not looking for Glory anymore, they don't get anything too newsworthy from Glory.
So before the derby, Glory was probably the most laid-back of the two teams.
The atmosphere of the city derby was as if he could not see it.
Domestically, the media is paying more attention to the game than Rongguang.
The joy of winning the Asian Cup is slowly fading and waning.
No matter how happy you are when you win the championship, you can't keep everyone happy, right?
So naturally, everyone's interest shifted to the Chinese foreign players who are struggling in the European league.
Now the match between Manchester City and Barcelona has a lot of fans in China, and they are naturally watching Rongguang and Gao Lin.
These two people are now the pride of Chinese football.
Manchester United and Manchester City's red-blue match, the same city derby, is naturally the focus of attention across Europe this weekend, and China is no exception.
Manchester United are the old giants, while Manchester City are the latest upstarts.
The duel between the old and new forces is already a gimmick, and the biggest gimmick of this season's Premier League title race makes this game full of highlights.
Since joining City, United have won just once, and that time was due to injury. Since then, United have never been able to beat Manchester City again, and if you look at the recent historical results, Manchester City have the advantage.
However, Ibrahimovic's absence due to injury in this game will affect Manchester City's attacking power to some extent, while Manchester United has sent the strongest lineup.
Manchester United have been in a little better form of late than Manchester City.
Manchester City drew three games in January, while Manchester United are on a winning streak. Klose is in very good form right now, scoring consecutive goals and is now top of the league scorers chart with 20 goals.
It's a rare thing to know that since Glory came to the Premier League, he has almost dominated the top scorer in the Premier League, and he has already locked in the top scorer halfway through the league.
Last season he ended up winning the Premier League Golden Boot and the European Golden Boot with 36 league goals. Last season, his first season in the Premier League, he also won the Premier League Golden Boot with 33 goals, Anelka, who scored 19 goals.
And this season, he was pulled down from the top of the scorer list by Klose. Although there are reasons why he went to the Asian Cup and missed six league rounds.
But Klose is not easy enough.
He's been in really good form lately, and Rooney can only play for him......
In this game, Klose's performance was very important in determining the final result of Manchester United.

In the players' tunnel before the game, Rong Guang and Klose shook hands and embraced.
The friendship they had since been in Werder Bremen has continued to this day, and although they no longer play for the same team and often see each other on the pitch, it has not affected their friendship.
Klose joked with glory: "I don't plan to give you this golden boot, Rong!" ”
"Then let's try." Glory is not to be outdone.
He was actually quite happy with Klose's excellent performance, but in fact, he was quite tired of always winning all the accolades easily.
If someone can compete with him, it can also arouse his fighting spirit and let him experience the fun of competition.
Just like when he was competing with Kaka in São Paulo.
Ibrahimovic has a bit of a feeling at Manchester City now, but it's not enough.
He wasn't worried about Klose scoring in this game, he wasn't even worried that Klose wouldn't score.
He wasn't worried that Klose's goal would cost City the game.
Just kidding, I'm here! How can Manchester City lose?
"Let's have a good comparison!" Before he was about to play, Glory reached out to Klose, who responded to him with a hand.
"Good!"
※※※
When the game started, Klose was in good form and Ferguson made some tactical adjustments based on Klose's form.
During this time, because Klose is in excellent form, the whole Manchester United team has been playing around him, and Rooney has to play for Klose, assists or something.
It is precisely because of Klose's excellent form that Manchester United have been able to catch up with Manchester City in the league.
Just three minutes into the game, Klose threatened Joe Hart's goal with a scramble shot from the edge of the box.
Had it not been for Joe Hart's concentration and side-punch to lift the ball out, City would have fallen behind just three minutes into the game......
"Klose! Oh! It's dangerous! John Mortensen exclaimed.
The United fans in the stands let out a sigh of regret, but soon they were cheering for their team.
Manchester United continues to play with this momentum, and it is difficult for Manchester United to really win this game!
Klose was a little disappointed that the goal was not scored......
※※※
However, just when Manchester United fans thought they would have the upper hand, Glory reminded them with a shot that hit the post that Manchester City is not a soft persimmon to pinch!
"Sakae—oh! Oh! Goalpost! What a pity! Rong's shot hit the post! John Mortensen couldn't help but hold his head, just like Berbatov.
There is nothing to be sorry for in glory.
I didn't get in this time, but there was always a time to get in.
He's happy that Klose is in really good form – he hasn't seen Manchester United before, so he doesn't know how good it is, even though he knows the media says Klose is in great form. Now after reading Klose's watch, Glory is relieved and happy.
Since Klose is in such good shape, then I can't let him compare!
※※※
The next two competed in the competition.
Klose had a dangerous shot on goal, and it wouldn't be long before Glory found his chance and would have returned the favor immediately.
In the competition between the two shooters, the pace of the game was also fierce. Because both men are in great form, it looks like the goal could happen at any moment.
However, the goalkeepers of these two teams are also very good.
Both Joe Hart and Edwin van der Sar made high and low blocks in the game, blocking shots from two men and others.
So until half an hour into the game, the score was still 0:0.
Although the score has not changed, there are no goals, but the scene is very intense and beautiful, and no one thinks the scene is dull, but feels that half an hour has passed unconsciously, which is really unexpected......
In addition to the brilliant shots and defence, there were two yellow cards in those 30 minutes.
Manchester United and Manchester City get one each.
The scramble is not very fierce, the referee does not blow the whistle and stop, and the game goes on very smoothly, which is also a reason why everyone feels that time flies quickly.
Commentators from all over the world have praised the half-hour spectacle between the two teams, which is fully worthy of the most eye-catching derby match in England today.
Because of the decline of Liverpool, the national derby of English football, Manchester United and Liverpool, is not as attractive as before, and the gold content is also declining rapidly.
At the same time, because Arsene Wenger's Arsenal has entered a period of inconsistency and has missed the championship for many years, the game between Arsenal and Manchester United is not as hot as before.
With the departure of Jose Mourinho, Chelsea's strength is still there, but their matches against traditional powerhouses such as Manchester United and Arsenal no longer have so much gunpowder.
In such a situation, Manchester City's aggressive rise directly threatens Manchester United's dominance, and the matchup between these two teams is naturally worth looking forward to.
Last season, Manchester United just sold their core and star Cristiano Ronaldo, so the team's new tactics are still in a run-in period, and the performance is not good, and there is no way to threaten Manchester City.
And this season, Manchester United came from behind and bit Manchester City.
※※※
In the 40th minute, the first half was over with five minutes left.
The score remained 0:0.
Everyone thought that the first half might be over in this scoreline, and both sides will certainly make targeted adjustments at half-time to try to break the deadlock in the second half.
It was at this time that United launched an attack.
Wayne Rooney dropped back into midfield to receive the ball, then he played the ball on the side and handed it to Nani.
Nani made a brilliant break down the flank, past Leighton Barnes, and then crossed with his feet!
Klose, who rushed to the goal, jumped high, grabbed ahead of Lucio, and shook his head to attack the goal!
John Mortenson shouted in a long voice.
The ball went into the net at his shout, and Joe Hart couldn't do anything more in the face of Klose's powerful rush so close.
He made a save, but it was done after the ball had come in......
"Klose has scored! It was his 21st league goal of the season! He's been in really good form in the league! He helped Manchester United take the lead at home! ”
After the goal, Klose ran to the corner flag with open arms and celebrated with his trademark somersault!
The United fans in the stands jumped en masse and cheered Klose with their arms raised.
While the atmosphere at Old Trafford has been lively since the start of the race, this one was the most enthusiastic!
"Hooray! Klose!! ”
The veteran coach Ferguson was also excited, rushed down from the coach's seat, and shook his fists vigorously.
Since Manchester City came to Glory and the Abu Dhabi consortium, Manchester United has always been pressed by Manchester City, which makes Ferguson feel breathless.
He really wants to beat Manchester City.
This season looks like the best of chances. I1292
