Everyone was looking forward to the quarrel between Pereira and Kaka, which was the best.

However, Kaka soon mentioned his national team prospects in an exclusive interview with a Brazilian media.

"...I am confident that I will return to the Brazilian national team. Every day at Manchester City, I can feel progress. As for not making it now, it is just because my performance is not good enough and I am not working hard enough. I believe that as long as I perform well enough, I will definitely be able to return to the national team. After all, my goal is to participate in the Brazil World Cup..."

Kaka's attitude made many reporters feel unsatisfied. They didn't want to see Kaka show his gentle side at this time. They hope Kaka and Pereira will quarrel!

As a result, Kaka was not fooled at all...

It's really boring.

However, the media's actions did not have no effect at all.

At least after Kaka made a statement, Pereira also made a statement: "I have been paying attention to Kaka's performance. His performance at Manchester City is much better than when he was at Real Madrid, but I think Kaka needs more time and his body has just recovered from injury. I think we should be more cautious in this issue (Kaka returns to the national team). After all, no one wants Kaka to perform just now and was interrupted by injuries..."

In the end, Pereira said that as long as Kaka can continue to perform well, he will definitely return to the Brazilian national team.

Kaka and the head coach both made statements one after another, and the two sides had no intention of having conflicts at all.

The audience was greatly disappointed by the fact that a good show did not start.

But this is a good thing for Kaka. He solved a big problem with the smallest cost. Now he can continue to devote all his thoughts to competitions and training.

In fact, this is as he said, very simple - as long as he performs well, he doesn't believe that Pereira will not give him a chance to enter the national team.

So Kaka is not very anxious about joining the national team. He believes that as long as he keeps in this state, he will return to the national team sooner or later.

Anyway, there are more than two years left before Brazil's local World Cup. Isn't it enough for more than two years to impress Pereira?

Manchester City beat Aston Villa 4-1 at home, while Manchester United tied 1-1 away with Liverpool in a very important game against Manchester United!

This is really good news for Manchester City fans.

Because this means that Manchester City no longer has to rely on any goals and goal difference to lead Manchester United.

They also led Manchester United by two points in points.

Those who said that Manchester United focuses on the league and Manchester City gave up on the league to focus on the Champions League have shut up.

Now it seems that Manchester City doesn’t want to give up in the league or the Champions League!

Just like they did last season, they won the league championship at home and the Champions League in Europe.

However, for Manchester United, it is not time to give up.

The next round of the league is Manchester City and their city derby. As long as Manchester United can beat Manchester City in this game, they can still surpass Manchester City with one point advantage and regain the league's first place.

Moreover, the next city derby is Manchester United's home court, which increases the chances of Manchester United winning.

Another advantageous factor is that both teams will have Champions League games next week, but Manchester United's Champions League match will be held one day earlier than Manchester City, which means they have more rest time than Manchester City to prepare for the same-city derby.

Moreover, Manchester United's Champions League opponents are not strong next week. Although they are away games, Ferguson can send a substitute to allow more main players to rest.

He did this. After playing against Liverpool, he kept many players who played in Liverpool in Manchester and did not go away to participate in the game.

Manchester City also made adjustments to this Champions League match, allowing many main players to continue to rest.

Even Kaka was put on the bench this time and did not start.

Both teams are preparing for the same-city derby on the weekend.

Although it was still early to the end of the league at this time, the same-city derby was the most special game of a season. Even if the title could not be decided at all, no one would want to lose to the mortal enemy of the same-city.

In the end, most of the substitutes Manchester United easily defeated the weakest team in the group 2-0 away, Otrugaradi from Romania.

Finally they won their first victory in the Champions League group stage this season.

Manchester United fans think this is a good sign, indicating that Manchester United's form in the Champions League is about to recover. Next, as long as they defeat Manchester City at home in the league, they can achieve a big turnaround in the Champions League and the league.

One day later, Manchester City faced St. Petersburg Zenit at home. Manchester City, whose trident was dismantled, were mostly substitutes, and they tied 2:2 at home.

This is Manchester City's first draw in the Champions League this season.

Although Rongguang scored a beautiful direct free kick in the Champions League, it failed to help the team win.

The draw in this game surprised many people.

After all, no one expected that Manchester City would be tied by St. Petersburg Zenit at home.

They all think Manchester City should be able to win easily.

"...It seems that Manchester City players are not thinking about this game, but in the next city derby..." John Motterson analyzed while commenting on the game. "The players' performance in this game is a bit absent-minded. On the one hand, they don't take their opponents too seriously, and on the other hand, they must have been affected by the next city derby."

Although he was tied at home, Manchester City is still ranked first in the group stage with seven points. Other teams, whether Porto or Zenit, cannot pose any threat to him.

Because after Porto lost to Manchester City in the first leg, he lost to St. Petersburg Zenit in the second round of the group stage. In the third round, they were tied 1:1 by the Greeks' Athletics...

Only one point is accumulated in three rounds of group stages, and the top seed team is the last team.

On the contrary, the Greeks, who are the weakest in the group, performed well in athletic performance. In the first round of the group stage, they defeated St. Petersburg Zenit 2:1 at home. Although they were defeated by Manchester City 2:0 in the second round of the group stage, they tied Porto in the third round, earned four points, ranked third in the group, and also promoted to second in the group.

St. Petersburg Zenit ranked second in the group with a away draw from Manchester City. They scored four points with the Greeks, but the goal difference is a little more than the Greeks, and they are temporarily ranked second. But this does not represent the final order of qualifying in the group. Because when deciding the qualifying in the group, the first thing to compare is not the goal difference or the number of goals, but the winning and losing relationship between the two teams with the same score... In this regard, St. Petersburg Zenit is currently behind the Greeks, and they lost to the Greeks 1:2 away.

Manchester City, who ended the Champions League match, quickly entered the league preparation mode.

Both sides attach great importance to this game, which can be seen from everyone's attitude towards the Champions League.

For Manchester United, who lost last season's championship, this game is not only about getting them back to the top of the league, but more importantly, it is a battle of revenge.

The anger that lost the championship last season was vented by defeating Manchester City in this game.

Before the game, the whole world believed that this would be a close match.

This game is also a free live broadcast for the world.

Before the game began, the two sides also fought verbal through various channels.

However, there is no innovation in the words, it is nothing more than that Manchester United criticized Manchester City for being a gold dollar football, while Manchester City mocked Manchester United for not being able to keep its top stars.

And Ferguson has not participated in this war of words.

Both head coaches seemed calm.

In the past, Ferguson liked to play verbal battles with his opponents.

And he can always win.

But since he discovered that this set has no effect on Manchester City and glory, he no longer wasted his saliva. This is meaningless except to add some hype gimmicks to the media. It is better to study tactics than to have the skills.

Everyone knows that the final result will be determined by the performance of the players of the two teams on the court, not in the media.

Soon, this highly anticipated game came.

At the beginning of the game, both sides were still calm and there was no yellow card in the first twenty minutes.

Both sides played very restrainedly and cautiously.

No one wants to concede the ball first.

In such a level duel, whoever concedes the ball first means he will be in a very difficult situation.

"The civilization of both sides almost made me think this is not a city derby..." Alan Hansen complained. He almost yawned, "This derby is really boring."

He hopes to see more goals and fierce scenes. If he is sent off with a red card, the players on both sides will have a conflict, and this game will be perfect.

But so far, twenty minutes have passed, and nothing he expected has happened.

No wonder he was upset.

Alan Hansen is a supporter of Liverpool. He just watched this game with a lively attitude. He doesn't care who wins and who loses. As long as the game is exciting and exciting enough, it's fine.
