At the end of the game, the Manchester City players hugged and celebrated, everyone in the coach's box rushed into the stadium excitedly, and the fans in the audience were also cheering wildly.

It felt like City had won something.

Actually, it's just a league game.

But this league has a special meaning – after the Chelsea game, Manchester City have equalled football history, with AC Milan setting a record of 58 games unbeaten in the league.

Sky Sports commentator George Woodgate was excited, "At full-time, Manchester City won 2-0 against Chelsea, they won the twentieth round of the season and are the 58th unbeaten league game since the first round of last season!" ”

"This is a crucial game because the next 58 games of unbeaten play are no longer exclusive to AC Milan, and they will share this honor with AC Milan!"

'It's a brilliant moment for Manchester City because they are moving forward and every step they take will be a whole new history!"

"It's a great moment!"

"Great moment for Manchester City! Great moment for English football! ”

“……”

A large crowd of journalists poured into the stadium to interview the City players, many of whom surrounded Wan Sheng.

Wan Sheng looked at the reporters around him with a smile on his face.

Everyone waited for him to speak.

Finally, Wan Sheng waved his hand and said, "I think you guys are too excited. ”

'It's just a league game and we haven't won any titles. To say that the league is unbeaten is only to equal AC Milan's record, not to set a new record, and I think your excitement should be carried over to the next game, when we will become a unique ......."

"If you're going to go to the press conference, I'd like to say a little bit about the game."

Wan Sheng walked away after speaking, not caring at all.

He wanted to downplay the impact of the game and didn't want to talk about tying the record at this point in time.

As the saying goes, they just tied the record, not a new record, even if a new record is created, it is just a kind of data, there is no need to celebrate like this, otherwise after every unbeaten league in the future, wouldn't it be a big celebration?

But apparently the idea of the media, especially the British media, is diametrically opposed to that of Wansheng.

The Premier League and Serie A have always been in rivalry, and now Manchester City have created an honour that belongs to the Premier League, equalling the record of Serie A giants AC Milan, and it is natural that it needs to be in the big news.

So no matter what Wan Sheng said on the pitch or in the press conference, there were few British media reports on the game between Manchester City and Chelsea, and all of them were talking about Manchester City's record-equalising.

At the same time, the Italian media are also reporting.

But the content of their reports is different from that of the British media, and they don't have a good impression of Manchester City's equaling 'their own record', so they are all using this incident to illustrate, "The level of the Premier League is decreasing. ”

“…… Manchester City can be unbeaten in 58 consecutive leagues, which shows that the current Premier League has been dominated by Manchester City......"

"In last season's Champions League, Manchester City were only defeated by AC Milan, but they were able to win consecutive Premier League games, which shows the ...... Premier League"

In short, what the Italian media means is that Manchester City's equalization record just shows that the level of the Premier League has declined, and they also take the current Premier League standings to say things, Manchester City is the first in the league, but the second-place Manchester United has opened a 6-point gap with them, and the third-place Chelsea is even worse, there is already a gap of more than 10 points with Manchester City, and it is simply unable to compete for the league title in the second half of the schedule.

"Halfway through the season, Manchester City have shown an absolute advantage in the title race, and they have won the Premier League for two consecutive seasons, and now the Premier League is completely dominated by a defeated AC Milan team......

The Italian media's statement made the British media very annoyed.

The British media will not admit that the level of the Premier League has declined, in fact, from the index of 'UEFA points' and the strength of the club, transfers, income, etc., the Premier League has comprehensively surpassed Serie A, take this season's Champions League as an example, the Premier League four teams, three of them are all the absolute advantage of the group first, leaving one Liverpool, or the Champions League champion in 2004-2005, no matter from which point of view, the level of the Premier League has not declined.

However, the Italian media grasped the argument that "Manchester City lost to AC Milan in the Champions League last season", and constantly explained the decline in the level of the Premier League, which made the British media grit their teeth and be helpless.

They couldn't help but start looking forward to this season's Champions League, with the Italian side beaten by the English side.

――――

While the British and Italian media are pinching together, Manchester City is ready for the next round of the league.

There were only two days between City's away game against Newcastle United and the previous round against Chelsea, so City didn't even have time to relive the aftermath of the record-equaliser.

Perhaps the British media has 'helped' Manchester City to reminisce, and at the same time they have also 'helped' Manchester City to report on the 21st round of the league in advance, analyze various situations, and judge one thing - whether Manchester City can beat Newcastle United and create a new history of unbeaten records in Europe's top five leagues!

On a rare occasion, "Manchester Sport", "The Guardian", "Daily Mirror", "The Times", "The Sun" and many other large media reached an agreement on the issue, and they all came to a conclusion after analyzing the line-ups, recent situation and other factors of the two sides, "It is not difficult for Manchester City to continue to be unbeaten away", or rather, "there is no suspense".

Newcastle United are by no means a team that can threaten Manchester City, even when they are at St James' Park.

Newcastle United have added to their squad in the summer, but so far their league results have not been good, only in a middle and lower table standings, which naturally cannot be compared with Manchester City's results.

'As long as Manchester City take the game seriously, they won't fall here......,' said the Guardian.

Will Manchester City take the game seriously?

Apparently it will!

Before the game, Wan Sheng has been doing ideological work with the players, and he used his majesty in the team, or personal charm, to constantly tell the whole team one thing, "As long as we play seriously, we will definitely win!" ”

If other coaches said that, the team would definitely think it was just to motivate the fighting spirit, but many players in the Manchester City team have a very high reverence for Wan Sheng, so when Wan Sheng said this, everyone thought he was expressing the facts.

So the pressure on every player is much less, and they come out with the confidence to win.

Newcastle United certainly don't want to be a stepping stone for Manchester City to break the record, before the game, manager Sam Allardyce did a lot of preparation, and said seriously in the media, "Newcastle United are not soft persimmons, we will definitely do our best to prevent them from breaking the record!" ”

Allardyce still had some authority, and his words were at least half fulfilled - full force.

Newcastle United did their best from the first minute, and every player who came out played hard was hard at hand, which led to them even suppressing Manchester City for a while.

In the 13th minute, Michael Owen received a pass from Gramie and fired a powerful shot from 15 yards in front of the goal to give Newcastle United the lead.

"Owen Owen Owen Owen - !!"

'Owen helped Newcastle United take the lead! 1:0, this goal is to prove that Manchester City wants to step on Newcastle United to set a record, it is not so easy! ”

The words broadcast at St James' Park were uplifting, and every Newcastle fan was cheering as hard as they could.

They were very depressed before the game.

The match between Newcastle United and Manchester City has not yet begun, but most of the British media have already supported Manchester City, and many reports have said that it means as if Manchester City have won against Newcastle United.

Now that the team is ahead of Manchester City, Newcastle United fans are very happy.

However, their happiness lasted less than ten minutes.

Although Newcastle United took the lead and scored first, it did not mean that they could win, and the Manchester City players came with the confidence to win, even if they conceded a goal, their mentality was not affected, but they played stronger.

After the two teams restarted, Manchester City pressed Newcastle United for more than 8 minutes in a row.

Finally, in the 21st minute, City's attack paid off, after three successive passes from Silva and Martin Petrov on the left, Martin Petrov sent a long pass straight to the back post, Torres stepped in to grab the position and kick the ball into the back of the net.

“Gooal！ Gooal！ ”

"Torres! Torres! ”

"1:1, it only took eight minutes for Manchester City to tie the score!"

After Torres' goal, Manchester City continued to keep Newcastle United pressing, but Newcastle United played tenaciously and it was not easy to continue to score, and as a result, neither side could find another goal until the full 80 minutes.

In the 80th minute, City had a good chance.

Silva was tackled to the ground at the front of the penalty area by Joey Barton, who continued his ferocity in defending and was about to face his former team-mates, and he showed no mercy at his feet, but fortunately Silva was fine, and after getting up from the grass, Manchester City organized a free-kick.

Ivan Crewe is in charge of the free throws.

Ivan Crewe has long been the team's first penalty taker, usually when he wants to take a penalty, other teammates will not fight, at the same time, his free kick has a certain reputation in the Premier League and even Europe, so Newcastle United organization defense, still pay more attention, they discharged a four-man wall, other players are also standing nearby waiting to grab the ball.

City looked like they were in contention, but Ivan Crewe opted for a direct shot at goal.

The shot shot arced high.

The ball flew to the highest point, spun straight into the far corner, and Ireland goalkeeper Given's misjudgment and when he jumped up, he realized that his hands could no longer reach the ball, only to watch the ball fall overhead.

1:2！

Manchester City overtook the scoreline! (To be continued.) )
