Chapter 0722, from competing for the championship to fighting for six
Years later, when veteran fans recall this season's Champions League matches, countless classic scenes are always talked about.
And those seemingly inconspicuous civilian heroes have become a precious memory for many people.
Even when someone interviewed the retired Xia Xing many years later, Xia Xing said so.
"Apart from our win-winning seasons, the 2018-2019 Champions League season was definitely the best. Each player is bursting with infinite power, which is amazing. ”
Every player in Xia Xing's mouth is mainly praising civilian heroes.
In this season's Champions League semi-finals, Tottenham and Liverpool performed fantastic.
Lucas Moura's classic hat-trick allowed Tottenham to transcend history and break new ground.
Divock Origi's brace helped Liverpool achieve a big comeback and overturn the mighty Barcelona.
In addition to this, there is the much-talked-about Ajax Youth Army.
With a group of young lads, Ajax eliminated the powerful Real Madrid and Juventus in succession and rushed to the semi-finals.
Even if they fell on the threshold before the final, they still earned the respect of the whole world.
Looking at it this way, Manchester United's three-goal victory over Paris in the second half was not so eye-catching.
In the end, Liverpool and Tottenham met in the final.
Many conspiracy theorists are clamoring again.
Isn't UEFA always looking at the Premier League as unpleasant?
In order to avoid giving the Premier League a direct promotion spot, but now, the Premier League teams have both reached the final!
Refreshing!
In the end, on the stage of the Champions League final, some miracles continued.
The Liverpool trident played against Tottenham Hotspur's iron triangle, and the two sides fought evenly.
It wasn't Salah's goal in the opening game that kept Liverpool in the lead.
Tottenham then hit the neutral post twice in a row and they were out of luck.
However, Liverpool have not found a chance to extend their score.
Until the 87th minute of the game.
Origi, who came on as a substitute, received a pass from Matip and fired a volley into the net!
In the final moments of the game, help the team score another goal!
2 to 0!
This is a lore in the absolute sense of the word!
In the end, Liverpool also won the Champions League this season with this goal!
They were humiliated and finally won what they lost in last year's final!
In the live broadcast room, Carragher's tears became a classic picture in the hearts of fans.
and Klopp's dashing action on the pitch was both selected as Liverpool's most touching moment this season.
In Europe this season, the mighty Liverpool is back!
However, the strength in the Champions League still failed to ensure the stability of the two-front battle.
In the league, they lost by one point to Manchester United and dropped the league title in the last minute to settle for second place.
However, Klopp still boasted after the game: "The Premier League title next season must belong to Liverpool!" ”
At the same time last year, Jurgen Klopp vowed to win the Champions League next season.
A year later, he got it.
Now, he has vowed to reach the top of the Premier League next season.
Will he be able to do it a year later?
Countless Reds fans are looking forward to it!
Their team is on the right track for a revival!
This season, Liverpool won the Champions League and Manchester City finally won the Premier League again, and both teams have achieved a lot of results.
Even teams like Tottenham, with their runners-up in the Champions League and fourth place in the Premier League, have given fans hope for a revival.
Manchester United, by comparison, are much more bleak.
The season started poorly and lost his decorated manager Jose Mourinho in the middle of the season.
Although Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's results have been good since he took over, his results have dropped rapidly after a complete extension of his contract.
The Champions League is out and the league is out of the top four.
Even in the second half of the league, he has been working hard for the top six.
The rivals who competed together for the Champions League title last season are still racing on the Champions League stage this season.
Last season's Premier League rivals are still active at the top of the table this season.
Manchester United, on the other hand, had terrible results for the rest of the year.
After losing to Barcelona, they suffered another blow in the league at the weekend.
Played 4-0 away at Everton, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's face turned grim.
Even if Xia Xing tried his best to defend in the midfield, it still didn't help.
In this game, both flanks were blown up.
Valencia and Ashley Young, who started the Champions League, were rested for this game, with Luke Shaw and Darmian starting.
With United's vice-captain and third-captain often criticised by fans for being too old, everyone saw their value in this game.
Without the two of them, United's wings were beaten into a sieve.
Poor performances by Luke Shaw and Darmian saw De Gea catch in the net four times.
On the other hand, the opposing team's two full-backs, Digne and Coleman, were both offensive and defensive throughout the game, and also scored goals and assists.
In contrast, the judgment is made from above.
And midfielder Schneiderlin's play is even more commendable.
The former Manchester United player's performance compared to Pogba's performance in the same position is nothing short of heavenly.
In the end, Manchester United suffered two consecutive defeats and unfortunately lost.
And that's not the end of it.
A week later, in the Manchester derby, United lost again at home.
0-2, the game was completely controlled by the opponent.
Manchester City, who were knocked out of the Champions League, put all their strength into the league.
De Bruyne, Gundogan, David Silva's successive wonderful passes, feeding the Manchester City striker to vomit.
Sergio Aguero and Bernardo Silva scored a goal each to seal the win.
It is worth mentioning that, according to the post-match statistics of this game, the effective passing statistics of Manchester United's Xia Xing are also very high.
However, Manchester United's forward line is not strong.
The poor performances of Romelu Lukaku and Alexis Sanchez have made it more likely that they will leave the club this summer.
In the end, United suffered a third defeat in a row, and rivals Wolves were closer to them.
In the next two Premier League games, they also failed to win.
The two 1-1 results were played against Chelsea and Huddersfield.
In both games, Manchester United relied on Xia Xing's long-range shot to equalise.
Otherwise, they could all suffer a five-game losing streak.
Even Chelsea, who have not been in good form this season, have a better game advantage than Manchester United now.
Fortunately, Manchester United's sworn rivals, Wolves, suffered two consecutive defeats, which allowed Manchester United to completely secure sixth place in the league.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer breathed a sigh of relief.
Although he signed a long-term contract, he is aiming for sixth place in the league and the quarter-finals of the Champions League.
If you don't achieve this goal, you may be able to leave class this summer.
Now, at least the handsome position is stable.
It's embarrassing to think about it, though.
Manchester United were still a title contender last season, winning the title several rounds ahead of schedule, and this season they will have to fight for six.
The regression is all too obvious......
In the final round of the league, with a sixth-place finish already set to finish and no further was possible, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer fielded young players.
Truce with all the main forces.
But Xia Xing took the initiative to ask Ying to make his debut.
"Coach, I want to play in this game!" (End of chapter)
