The youngsters are always a little more energetic and after getting on the plane after the game against Aston Villa, most of the players rested in their seats. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
And Yu Liang, King Dong, Ronaldo and Rooney got together to play landlord fighting. This is to pass the boring road trip, Yu Liang and Dong Wang introduced, now in the Manchester United team, and has a high degree of support from Ferguson, and sometimes even forms a card with the players and plays a few games. In order to allow the players to get enough rest, Ferguson generally strictly stipulates the players' schedules and even limits the range of activities of the players during the road trip. But the players always sneaked out of the hotel. But since the birth of the landlord, this kind of thing rarely happens, and after the road trip to the hotel, most of the players will choose to fight a few in the room.
"This Champions League draw must be boring, to be honest, I'm almost tired of watching the city of Rome!"
Yu Liang and the others were playing cards while chatting about the upcoming Champions League quarterfinals, and the opponent was Roma from the same group.
This is the third time the two sides have met in the Champions League since meeting in the quarter-finals of the Champions League last season.
If it's really not greasy at all, no one really believes it.
In the second leg of last year's Champions League quarter-finals at Old Trafford, Manchester United thrashed Roma 7-1.
Let the Roma team reach the quarterfinals of the Champions League for the first time.
Roma captain Wolf King Totti said in an interview after the game that it was a shame for the Roma team and longed for revenge.
Shortly after Totti expressed his inner desire, Totti was given his wish and a chance to get revenge at the Champions League draw for the new season.
Manchester United and Roma were placed in the consent group.
As soon as the results of the grouping came out, the Romans cried for revenge at Old Trafford.
However, in the two legs of the group stage, Roma were not able to complete their revenge. After a home draw, they were humiliated again at Old Trafford.
The four clean goals were a resounding slap in the face of the Roma.
Although the Roma were beaten out of temper, they still said after the game that it was not a reflection of the true strength of both teams. Obviously they were very unhappy with the result of the defeat.
In the next Champions League quarter-finals, the Roma also proved their quality with their actions.
Facing the La Liga giants Real Madrid, the two-legged clean 4-2 kept it out of the top eight and achieved Real Madrid's "prestige" in the Champions League.
Reaching the quarter-finals of the Champions League for the second season in a row, Roma no longer need to prove themselves to the outside world, and they are now thinking more about wanting to go one step further in the Champions League.
Therefore, they are hoping that they will be able to draw an underdog team when the draw for the quarterfinals is made.
There are no weak teams in the quarterfinals of the Champions League.
From the group stage to the present, which team has not experienced a bloody battle?
However, from the perspective of overall strength, compared with Barcelona, Manchester United, Chelsea, Liverpool and Arsenal, Fenerbahce and Schalke 04 are relatively easy to pinch soft persimmons.
The Roma are hoping to draw these two teams so that the chances of advancing are a little bit higher.
But at this time, UEFA just played a joke with them, didn't you cry and shout for revenge? Last season you fell at the feet of Manchester United and failed to make it to the last four of the Champions League. We didn't get revenge in the Champions League group stage this season, so I'll give you another chance now.
The Champions League quarter-finals are against Manchester United again.
A win over Manchester United to reach the last four of the Champions League is certainly more significant than a win over Schalke 04 or Fenerbahce to reach the last four of the Champions League.
If the Romans had gone the heroic route, the Romans would have been very happy with the results of this draw.
All they have to do is sharpen their knives and wait for United to stretch their necks.
However, not all teams have the quality to play heroism, especially Roma, who have fallen to the feet of Manchester United twice.
Apparently when they face Manchester United again, they no longer have the ambition to shout revenge slogans.
In an interview, the Roma team said that the quarterfinals of the Champions League will be very difficult, and they showed a different temperament with low-key humility.
"Just take it for free!"
After many consecutive victories over Roma, they have no feeling for Roma, and they will not take Roma in their eyes.
"Old K, haha, I won I won, pay for it!"
Taking advantage of the chat, the landlord Yu Liang almost played the cards in his hand, leaving only an old K in his hand, and the smuggling was successful.
"Damn, you're cheating!"
"Isn't there ten cards left to count?"
"Don't give money!"
In the face of the three people who cheated, Yu Liang had no choice. But in order to pass the boring journey, I can only continue to fight the landlord with them. In the cheerful time of fighting the landlord, the boring journey soon ended.
The Manchester United players have lost interest in the city of Rome, which has already been to the city twice.
After resting in the hotel for the night and recuperating their spirits, they threw themselves into preparing for the battle the next day.
Although the Manchester United players did not think that a problem with the victory over Roma would not be a problem, under the supervision of Alex Ferguson, the players at the training ground still completed every training session very seriously.
When you're serious, time always flies. It's midweek, the Champions League match day against Roma.
The players, who were ready to go, walked into the Olympic Stadium in Rome under the leadership of the referee team.
There was cheering in the stadium, and although the home fans tried their best to create a warm atmosphere, it was difficult to hide the sluggishness of the Serie A football market. Even in a heavyweight match such as the quarterfinals of the Champions League, the attendance in the Olympic Stadium is just over 60%, and the stands that can accommodate more than 100,000 people can see patches of empty space. That's a far cry from Old Trafford's 90 per cent attendance. In addition, this is not a professional football stadium, and the effect of gathering sound is not particularly good, and the atmosphere created is naturally a little worse. But the cheers of 60,000 people were also very loud.
The game began with a huge cheer from the home fans.
Roma kicked off first.
Before the game, many of United's players expressed their desire to end the series in this game, and their words were full of contempt for Roma.
But after the start of the game, Roma taught the United players a lesson! (To be continued.) )
