Chapter 690: Lose-Lose?

March 27, the thirtieth round of the Premier League.

Manchester City take on Blackburn Rovers.

This time Manchester City have adopted a semi-main line-up.

After all, they had just played Roma less than three days ago, and the main team was all out of the game, and they also injured Essien.

Blackburn Rovers could be relegated if nothing happens this season.

Despite their desire to win on the pitch.

But the difference in strength between the two sides still forced them to disarm and surrender.

Two to zero.

Manchester City also did not press Blackburn Rovers in control of the situation.

It's about controlling the tempo.

The so-called poor don't chase.

Manchester City really can't afford to hurt right now.

And turning around, they have another tough battle to fight.

On April 1, the FA Cup semi-finals.

Manchester City vs Liverpool.

Liverpool, everybody knows, right?

It was the team that sniped Manchester City's 22nd consecutive win.

Liverpool: Exactly below!

They were once known as the heroes of Europe's fight against the blues.

Stopped the ravages of the terrifying Blue Moon.

But in this game, Liverpool was definitely counterattacked.

They conceded early on due to a mistake by goalkeeper Dudek.

When Dudek kicked the ball off, Adriano flew to block the shot.

Ade rarely fights so hard.

As a result, the ball hit Adriano in the back and bounced into the Liverpool goal.

And in the end, it was the only goal of the game.

Liverpool stopped there.

Their entire season has been declared to end early.

Champions League, League, EFL Cup, FA Cup, all four are empty!

Although there are still eight rounds left in the league.

But the difference between Chelsea and Manchester United has been widened by the perversion of the top two in the Premier League.

One is the terrifying Blue Moon, which has not tasted defeat in the four tiers so far this season.

One is the unbeaten Gunners in the Premier League, who are also unbeaten so far.

Manchester City have won more and are currently four points ahead of Arsenal.

The fixtures on both sides were almost as horrible for the rest of the game.

But where Arsenal have an advantage over Manchester City is that they didn't spend much effort in their early EFL Cup.

Didn't give the players a physical problem.

So if there is a physical and mental progress bar, Arsenal's players should generally be better than Manchester City's players.

On the second day, though, Arsenal's advantage was even greater.

Because in the other FA Cup semi-final, Arsenal, who were invincible in the Premier League, lost to Manchester United, who are third in the Premier League table.

Cristiano Ronaldo contributes a stunner for Manchester United!

Arsenal's three-line becomes double-line!

Cristiano Ronaldo also made Manchester United's title announcement this season: "I know it's going to be a little difficult to do something in the league, but it's not completely impossible. ”

'And in the FA Cup, I think we have a lot to do.

'I've won the Premier League at Manchester United but haven't won the FA Cup yet, so I'm two hundred per cent hungry for any new honours.

"It's time for Manchester United to win an FA Cup!"

Manchester United fans are thrilled.

After all, there have been two perversions this season, and the FA Cup is the best reward that United can compete for.

……

April 4, the 31st round of the Premier League.

Mars hits Earth!

Unbeaten derby, again!

Manchester City vs. Arsenal.

This game is very crucial.

Three days before this game, the two sides had just experienced the FA Cup semi-finals.

Three days after this match, both sides will experience the second leg of the European knockout round.

Arsenal are going to make a deal with city rivals Chelsea.

Manchester City is going to Barcelona to renew their relationship with their long-time rival Barcelona.

In these three games, both sides ...... Don't plan to give up!

Sky Sports: "Manchester City and Arsenal are already in a difficult situation, and they can't afford to give up on European competition. But the unbeaten league honour, or the Premier League title behind it, is also important to them! ”

The Times: "Manchester City and Arsenal are walking a tightrope, it's up to whoever breaks the tightrope under their feet first!" Judging by the results so far, Manchester City are the one who is more likely to suffer from the unexpected. ”

The Echo: "Arsenal beat Chelsea in the first leg. Manchester City beat Barcelona 2-2 in the first leg. Their situation is not clear! ”

"Man Night": "Even if there are no injuries, such a high-intensity, high-frequency game, even if both sides are the top teams in the world, I am afraid it will be difficult to bear. ”

Record: "It's really a problem with the Premier League, the competition in the Premier League is too fierce. Such serious internal friction will lead to their lack of strength in foreign wars. No, both teams will be losers because of this game! ”

Kicker: "Yes, no matter what the outcome of this league is, but in European competitions, they can be the losers!" ”

The media is very worried about the Premier League landscape.

But soon, some media said that the commercial value of the Premier League is very high, and the championship is very influential.

Other media believe that the fierce competition in the Premier League has led to the gold content of their league titles even comparable to Serie A and La Liga.

Anyway, it's all kinds of nice words.

But when you look at the forces behind the media, it's basically the Champions League and the UEFA Cup that are aiming to win the Champions League.

They want Manchester City and Arsenal to fight among themselves.

Both teams have been too fierce this season.

And the result was about the same as everyone expected.

In order to compete for the championship, the two teams did a whole game.

But the defensive quality of both sides is very high.

It's six or seven people when you attack, and nine or ten people when you go back.

The passion of the fight is surging.

In the fifty-sixth minute of the second half, Henry scored a single goal!

In the 79th minute of the second half, after Toure shot from a distance, Deng Kai scored a supplementary shot.

A duel of kings has been staged!

The two sides eventually shook hands again to one-on-one.

In the two league meetings this season, both sides have not been decided.

The moment the game ended, Arsene Wenger had a bitter smile on his face.

If you win, it's okay, not to mention narrowing the points gap, you can also use this joy to rush in the Champions League.

But now, both sides are playing exhausted.

Grass!

April 7.

The city of London is generally cloudy and sunny.

Arsenal fans were left alone in the rain.

Arsenal Broken Bridge!

Chelsea managed to win 2-1 against Arsenal, who they had never won in the league!

Chelsea advance to the last four of the Champions League!

After the game, in an interview with reporters, Abramovich smiled: "What about an unbeaten league game? If you don't lose an unimportant game that you can lose, you will lose an important game that you can't lose. ”

"I never believed that there was an invincible team in this world."

"If there is, it's just because the time hasn't come."

'I spent a lot of money at Chelsea and they didn't let me down. Our goal is to win the Champions League! I have a lot of confidence in us. ”

"I believe, let alone Arsenal, even if our opponent is Manchester City, who are even more terrifying than Arsenal, unbeaten on all fronts this season, it will be us who advance!"

"This is called the law of conservation of wins and losses!"
