Chapter 742 Defending the League Championship! Monthly Pass)
Berbatov was injured and unable to hold on to the game.
Manchester United made a substitution.
Fang Jue watched Manchester United complete this substitution, turned his head and looked at the Manchester United coaching seat, and snorted.
Fletcher was replaced by Fletcher.
Remove a forward and replace a midfield to strengthen defense.
Ferguson's intention was very clear and he kept the score one-to-one.
A one-to-one draw plus a away goal is a wonderful result that is completely acceptable for Manchester United.
This score means that when Manchester United only needs a zero-to-zero draw to eliminate Aston Villa by taking advantage of away goals.
Fang Jue glanced at his bench, "Abanglaho, go warm up."
If Aston Villa had taken the initiative to attack and expand the score before, they were now forced to attack, and they had to score at least one more goal and win the game at home, otherwise, they would be very passive in the second round.
Three minutes later, Abanglaho came on as a substitute and Stroman was replaced.
Under Aston Villa's tide attack, Manchester United's defense line remained unmoved.
In the final stage of the game, Manchester United's South Korean midfielder Park Ji-sung received the second yellow card and was sent off with a red card.
Immediately afterwards, Carrick also received the second yellow card and was sent off with a red card.
Manchester United, who faced the nine-man team, defended the 1-1 draw.
Referee Cabarrow blew the whistle to the end of the game.
"The game ends! The game ends! Manchester United, who was sent off two people, tied Aston Villa 1-1 away! This is a score that satisfies Ferguson."
"You can tell by looking at Fang Jue's face. He is so dissatisfied with the result of the game. The one-to-one score means that Aston Villa must win the second leg, or at least a draw like two-to-two to advance."
At the post-match press conference, Fang Jue strongly questioned the referee's penalty.
"I just watched the replay of this penalty, and it is 100% certain that this penalty does not exist." Fang Jue said.
"Kulibari knocked down Berbatov and injured him, that's the fact." Ferguson immediately retorted.
The two broke into an argument again at the press conference.
The reporters were interested in watching it. After Mourinho left the Premier League, they finally saw someone who could compete with Ferguson.
After the press conference.
"See, this is Manchester United, this is the resilience of the real giants!" Ferguson said in the corridor, "I really don't consider coaching in Manchester United?"
Ferguson still insisted that Fang Jue was the one who was most suitable to take over his class and was still making final efforts.
"I can't afford Manchester United, so I'm not going to say that these are useless," said Fang Jue.
Ferguson sighed, this guy was Aston Villa's boss, and there was nothing he could do.
"I like Gareth Bell very much," Ferguson said.
"Go to dream." Fang Jue said immediately, then he looked at the expression of the old Scottish man, "Are you serious?"
This is the third time Ferguson has mentioned Bell in person to him.
This made Fang Jue realize that Ferguson was serious and that Manchester United really wanted to poach Bale.
"The club will arrange for someone to contact Villa to discuss the transfer," Ferguson said.
"Impossible!" Fang Jue's attitude was firm, "Bell is absolutely non-selling!"
"There is no one that Manchester United can't buy."
"You think you are Real Madrid and can poach C Ronaldo from Manchester United." Fang Jue was so angry that he stabbed the old man.
Ferguson immediately changed his face and left angrily.
The two parted again unhappy.
Fang Jue looked at the old man's back as he left, and his expression became serious. It seemed that Ferguson was determined to buy Bell, which made him wary.
He must be unwilling to sell Bell, but no matter how good the corner is, he can't stand being dug up constantly.
Especially Bale's attitude, will he be moved by the invitation from the wealthy family?
This is something Fang Jue needs to keep an eye on and be vigilant.
...
Aston Villa tied 1-1 by Manchester United at home in the first leg of the Champions League semi-finals.
This is a score that is not good for Aston Villa.
The most direct feedback from this matter is that after the game, major gambling institutions immediately adjusted Aston Villa's championship odds.
Obviously, after one-to-one game, the gambling agency is more optimistic about Manchester United entering the finals.
Fang Jue was not angry with the players. Instead, he gave the team a day off to let everyone have a good rest.
Although the score of one to one was not ideal, Fang Jue thought carefully after he was upset that this game and this score came very timely, which was a blow to the whole team and a warning.
After 59 unbeaten in the league and the Champions League visits to A. Milan and Inter Milan, the entire Aston Villa team spread a sense of pride.
When a team keeps winning, the players will naturally feel a little psychologically floating.
The score of one to one is not too bad, it is just enough to cool down the players.
Of course, it also cooled down Fang Jue himself. In fact, when Manchester United was drawn in the semi-finals, Fang Jue himself thought this was a very easy-to-bureaucrat. Aston Villa maintained an unbeaten record of four wins and one draw against Manchester United in the league, which made Fang Jue a little distant.
This one-to-one game calmed down Fang Jue.
Before the game, Ferguson said that Manchester United's advantage was rich experience, and Fang Jue didn't care much, but judging from the first leg of this semi-final, the game experience is indeed something that Aston Villa lacks very much.
Take the penalty kick that caused Manchester United to score for example. The main reason is that Coulie Bali is too young and experienced.
If this is a change of identity, Aston Villa will replace a player, Ferdinand or Vidic from Manchester United will never relax. They will form a defense line as soon as possible and will not make mistakes.
Youth has to pay a price.
Fortunately, this is not the final, it is a knockout round in two rounds, and Aston Villa has a second game to make up for the mistake.
...
The next night, Fang Jue watched another first leg of the semi-finals at home, which was Real Madrid's Spanish Civil War against Barcelona at the Bernabeu Stadium.
The match between Real Madrid and Barcelona, known as the Spanish national derby, is a battle of the century. The confrontation between two teams, Crocelona and Messi, is a game of global concern.
However, the Spanish national derby has been significantly too many this season.
This is the third time the two sides have met 4 times in a day.
In the previous 240 century matchups, Barcelona had a slight advantage, winning 100 wins, 51 draws and 9 losses.
In the Champions League, Real Madrid, which has won nine times, has reached the semi-finals 21 times and advanced to the finals 12 times.
Barcelona, who has stood at the top of Europe three times, has entered the semi-finals 11 times and eliminated their opponents five times.
The two teams had played against each other three times in European games, with Real Madrid having the upper hand in 3 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss at home, and eliminated Barcelona in both semi-finals.
Therefore, before the game, Spanish media generally optimistic that Mourinho's Real Madrid, who won the century-old rival Barcelona at home.
In the end, in this UEFA Champions League national derby held by Bernabeu, Real Madrid lost to Barcelona 0-2 at home, Pepe was sent off with a red card in the second half, and Mourinho was sent to the stands.
Messi scored twice in the game.
This is the first time in Barcelona's history that he won away against the Spanish team in Europe. Barcelona is expected to reach the Champions League final for the third time in three years.
Real Madrid's unbeaten match against Spanish teams in European games in history was ended. Although he defeated Barcelona away in the knockout match twice in history, when Pepe, Ramos and Mourinho were suspended, after the game, Spanish media generally believed that Real Madrid's visit to Camp Nou was in trouble, and Barcelona had almost advanced to the finals ahead of schedule.
Fang Jue put down the newspaper.
The front page of the newspaper is Guardiola's bald head and smiling face.
A reporter asked Guardiola whether the 2-0 victory over Real Madrid away from home meant that Barcelona had already secured the final ticket in advance.
Guardiola was cautious, saying that Barcelona still needed a tough game to advance to the final.
However, when he said this, Guardiola's face was filled with a bright smile.
Pretending, not sincere at all.
Fang Jue snorted, he was sure that if Aston Villa could turn the tables in the second leg and reach the finals, his opponent would be Guardiola's Barcelona.
Two years ago, in Guardiola's first season coaching Barcelona, Fang Jue led Ibiza to create a miracle of a dark horse winning championship, and snatched the La Liga championship from Guardiola, which could be regarded as a result of old grudges.
This time, the two people meet again, which may be the final of the Champions League!
Of course, Aston Villa has to overcome Manchester United's level first.
Three days later, in the 35th round of the Premier League, Aston Villa played against West Bromwich away.
Before the game, some media said that Aston Villa may be broken in this game. The reason is very simple. Aston Villa will be distracted from the second leg of the Champions League semi-finals next week with Manchester United. In addition, the one-to-one against Manchester United is also a blow to Aston Villa, and the morale of the players will be relatively low.
Tony Parker swears on his website that Aston Villa will be taught a lesson by West Bromwich in this game.
This game is particularly eye-catching, because before the game Aston Villa leads second Manchester United by as much as 10 points. As long as Aston Villa wins West Bromwich away, Aston Villa will secure the Premier League championship three rounds in advance and achieve a successful defense of the title.
The ninety-minute game ends.
Fang Jue raised his arms high and cheered for victory proudly.
With the three arrows of Ronaldo, Suarez and Modric, Aston Villa defeated West Bromwich three-0 away, expanding his unbeaten league games to 60 games, continuing to set a new record of unbeaten.
The most important thing is that after winning this game, Aston Villa won the Premier League championship three rounds in advance and achieved the league championship again!
A few minutes later, the game on another field ended, with Arsenal defeating Manchester United 1-0 at home.
In this game, Ferguson conducted a large rotation, and tied Aston Villa 1-1 away in the Champions League semi-finals, which gave Ferguson a hope of once again rushing to the Champions League championship. He finally made up his mind to give up the league and specialize in the Champions League.
Aston Villa leads Manchester United by more than thirteen points.
Of course, it doesn't matter how many points you lead, Aston Villa is the champion.
When Aston Villa's entire team returned to Birmingham, they were welcomed by Aston Villa fans.
Fans were excited to celebrate the league's defending title.
However, Aston Villa club then announced that it would not celebrate the Premier League championship for the time being, and everything would be discussed when the Champions League ended.
For Fang Jue and Aston Villa, winning the league also allows the team to prepare for the Champions League with all their hearts and minds!
