Chapter 873: Premier League Championship Award Ceremony

The season has entered the final stage, and the respective teams are sprinting for their goals, some to be relegated, some to compete for the title, and some to compete for European qualification......

Manchester City have already won the League Cup and the Premier League, with two trophies to fight for, the FA Cup and the Champions League.

With the FA Cup final on 18 May, it's still early, and City's most important task now is to complete the second leg of the Champions League semi-final and reach the final.

The 3-0 score in the first leg laid a solid foundation for them to reach the final, but they did not take it lightly and thought that they were in the final, because there are too many classic examples in the Champions League.

Just because you win the first round or a big win doesn't mean you'll qualify!

In addition, Manchester City has won the Premier League, and it stands to reason that they should have no desire in the Premier League, but they still maintain an unbeaten record and have a chance to impact Arsenal to set a season unbeaten record!

Now that has become their only goal in the Premier League!

In order to achieve this goal, Manchester City immediately focused on the Premier League after playing the Champions League game against Ajax.

Their opponents in this round are Chester City.

Chester City are now in ninth place, a no-brainer position, and Manchester City are playing at home.

Therefore, many media and fans believe that Manchester City, even if they can't win, can at least get a draw and continue to sprint towards the season unbeaten.

This game also has an important meaning for Manchester City, that is, there will be a championship award ceremony after the game!

On May 4, the 37th round of the Premier League began.

Teams are battling it out in the Premier League for their own goals.

At 8pm on May 5, Manchester City's match against Chester City kicked off at the Yin Tihad Stadium.

The Intihad Stadium was packed and crowded.

Pep Guardiola unsurprisingly put Li Chuanqi and other key players on the bench, because the second leg of the Champions League semi-finals is approaching.

For the so-called unbeaten season, let the main team miss the Champions League game with injury......

That's more than you lose.

What's more, Guardiola is still relieved about the substitute lineup.

When it comes to bench depth, how many teams in the Premier League can compete with Manchester City?

After the start of the game, Manchester City took advantage of the home advantage, took the initiative on the field, and launched attacks against Chester City again and again.

I don't know if these substitutes are in a hurry to prove themselves, there are problems in seizing opportunities, and they have repeatedly missed goals.

The two sides exchanged a goalless sheet in the first half.

At the start of the second half, City continued to control the tempo and the situation on the pitch, but were unable to score and break the deadlock.

Time passed quickly, and the expression on Guardiola's face changed.

A 0-0 score is honestly acceptable to him, but who can guarantee that Chester City won't come to a last-minute stunner?

So...... If you can get a goal...... That's the safest thing.

So in the thirtieth minute of the second half, Guardiola finally began to make substitutions, replacing Aguero and De Bruyne!

With the two on the pitch, Manchester City's attack is even more threatening!

Come to Chester and get the wind in front of the gates!

However...... They still can't get on the scoresheet!

Instead, Chester City took advantage of the counter-attack and created a couple of dangerous attacks.

In the 40th minute of the second half, Guardiola used the last substitution and played the trump card in his hand and replaced Li Chuanqi!

Li Chuanqi's appearance made the Yin Tihad Stadium resounded with a whole cheer, and the faces of the players who came to Chester City began to change.

Nima ...... Zero-to-zero ...... Everybody's okay with that...... Manchester City, can you not afford to play?

Do you think you've made it to the Champions League final?

Li Chuanqi's arrival made Manchester City's attack more aggressive.

In the forty-fifth minute of the second half, De Bruyne made a direct pass and broke through the defense of Chester City!

Li Chuanqi flew to kill, and after taking the ball, he forced his way into the penalty area and shot low!

The football flew past the Chester City goalkeeper and into the goal!

The ball is in!

1 to 0!

Manchester City broke the deadlock on the pitch!

Guardiola breathed a heavy sigh of relief, with a ball in hand, the game was stable!

At this moment, the Manchester City fan forum was full of jubilation:

"Lee! It's still up to Lee! ”

"At the critical moment, Li still has to solve the problem!"

"Unbeaten in the Premier League, we're just one game away!"

"So...... We will soon be the second unbeaten team in the Premier League! ”

'We're going to be the second team unbeaten in the Premier League season, it's exciting to think about!'

"Not only will we be unbeaten in the Premier League in the right away, we could even become the first team in the world to go unbeaten in all competitions all season!"

"God, don't say it now! This increases the pressure on the players. On the contrary, I think the unbeaten record or something, it is not that important, as long as we can win the Champions League, the unbeaten record...... It doesn't matter at all! ”

"Yes, yes, yes! I support the opinion of the brothers upstairs, the unbeaten record is not what we are going to strive for, we want the championship! As long as we win the Champions League, we are the top giants in Europe! ”

……

At the Yin Tihad Stadium, the game restarted amid deafening cheers.

Manchester City went all out, setting up a solid defensive line at the back, and coming to Chester City was like hitting a solid net......

Soon after, Manchester City tackled the ball.

Coming to Chester City came back to their own half like a tide.

Manchester City poured the ball in central midfield to the singing of their fans, they didn't need a big win tonight, they didn't even need a win at all, a draw was enough to satisfy them.

"Drop! Drip! Drip! ……”

After four minutes of stoppage time, the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game.

It's over!

Manchester City continued their unbeaten run in the Premier League with a 1-0 victory, and they are just one game away from catching Arsenal's record of unbeaten Premier League season!

After the game, the reporters looked at each other, they were shocked not by Manchester City's victory at home to Chester City, but by the shock that Manchester City was only one game away from catching up with Arsenal's unbeaten record in the Premier League!

Once upon a time, when Arsenal went unbeaten in the Premier League under Professor Arsene Wenger, almost everyone thought it was a miracle, a miracle that could not be followed.

However...... It's only been a few years...... Manchester City has the infinite possibility of performing this miracle again!

Unbeaten in the Premier League......

Manchester city......

The Yin Tihad Stadium resounded with a tsunami of cheers and thunderous applause.

After the game, the whole stadium was excited because there was a Premier League championship award ceremony tonight!

The Manchester City players wore the medal uniforms specially prepared for them by the sponsors, which were gold jerseys and sparkling gold!

"Golden? Why not blue? ”

Manchester City fans were unhappy with the colour of the medal uniform.

"Forget it! Never mind! It's all trifle! The most important thing now is that we have won the championship! ”

Fans were quick to put the matter on the back burner.

The stadium staff quickly set up the podium, and the grand and exciting award ceremony began.

The players, led by veteran captain Vincent Kompany, walked onto the podium to receive their commemorative medals from the presenters.

Manchester City owner Mansour is also one of the award presenters, I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, he was the one who presented Li Chuanqi with a commemorative medal.

"Lee!"

Mansour seriously hung the medal around Li Chuanqi's neck, and then gave him a big hug.
