Chapter 70 The Red Devils are defeated

,

spn FA Cup, Manchester United successfully passed the test, but Fulham was beaten by Manchester United with a big score at their home court, 0:4!

Manchester United has advanced to the semi-finals of the FA Cup. It is rare that Manchester United really wants to win the championship in all competitions this season. The British media are already extremely excited. Manchester United is creating unprecedented miracles. The remaining games of the FA Cup

, Champions League, Premier League.

In addition to the previous League Cup and Club World Cup, it is a true five-time champion!

It's incredible that Li Yu can play with the team in such a club and win every game, especially since Li Yu is a Chinese. In the past, these championships were so far away, but now he

It seems that I am already very close to these things, and if I just work harder, I can achieve them.

At your fingertips?[

You have to fight step by step, game by game. Li Yu's performance in training surprised all the players and coaches of the club. No matter who he is, there will be a period of fatigue, especially when the game comes to an end.

In the official stage, players' status will fluctuate to varying degrees, but Li Yu's status always seems to be red, just like in live football. Such players are too rare, and their tireless status is surprisingly good.

Ronaldo can only feel envious. Compared with Li Yuyi, he realizes his biggest shortcoming, but is this a shortcoming?

Everyone has ups and downs, but Li Yu really doesn't look like a normal person lately!

In the Fulham game, it became an exhibition match for Li Yu alone. He scored four goals for Manchester United by himself. It can be said that Li Yu bloodbathed Fulham by himself.

Even the British media, which has always liked to find fault with others, has recently been saying that if Li Yu like this cannot get a big contract, it is a shame for God to favor this young Chinese man.

He is young, but his strength has almost reached the peak that a player can reach. In Manchester United's recent games, even Ronaldo was inferior to him. The most terrifying thing is that he is only 20 years old and he still has potential. Manchester United

No matter how much you spend, it’s worth it. Can that legendary lifetime contract be released?

Li Yu himself was not fooled by such and such pursuit. He knew his own affairs well. In Fulham's game, it was because they felt that they had no hope of promotion and had no intention of playing. It was only Manchester United who could score four goals.

The overall strong result. First of all, the opponent knew that it was Manchester United, especially the Premier League team. Now the momentum of the game has been weakened by at least three points before the game started.

Had the game started scoring earlier, it would have been natural for Fulham to give up. If he had been at Everton last season, Li Yu felt that he would not have won the game so smoothly. This was his true feeling.

Manchester United's strength is all-round. In the Premier League, they are the king, nothing else. This is the concept that Ferguson has always instilled in Manchester United.

In the past, Arsenal and Chelsea took turns challenging Manchester United's status as king, but in recent years, no team has the qualifications or capital to challenge Manchester United again.

Arsenal has returned to the ranks of quasi-powerful players, especially after Henry left Barcelona and the gun king of the arsenal left. The entire team also lost the qualification to compete with Manchester United. Wenger and Ferguson, the old enemies, have also lost their reputation because of Arsenal in recent years.

Gradually withdrawing from the championship competition, they seem to be sympathetic to each other. In fact, it is not difficult to understand that the two coaches with the oldest coaching qualifications in the Premier League still have some knots that the two old men cannot resolve.

Chelsea, on the other hand, became silent after the departure of its founder Mourinho. It is still a first-class team, but without the madman, Chelsea seems to be missing something. What kind of coach can bring out what kind of players. This sentence

The words may be more appropriate to describe the current Chelsea. The head coach will always be indifferent.

That person from Baoxi, how can such a player expect to compete for various championships? He made it to the finals, but at the critical moment he was still a little short. The difference may lie in the head coach, or simply in the club's foundation. Money can do anything.

The only thing you can buy is that the club’s heritage cannot be bought with money.

After talking for a long time, Li Yu made Manchester United this season?

Or did Manchester United make Li Yu successful?

No one can tell clearly, or the best answer is a win-win situation after the organic combination of the two.

Can this win-win situation last until the end of this season and continue forever?

Based on the current performance of both parties, the honeymoon period between Ronaldo and Manchester United is about to end, while the honeymoon period between Li Yu and Manchester United has just officially begun.

Manchester United returned to the Premier League, but unexpectedly lost to Liverpool led by Benitez by a huge score at Old Trafford.

1:4, a shocking big score.

In the first half, Luo scored the first goal with a penalty kick and scored Manchester United's 700th home goal in the Premier League. However, Vidic's mistake later allowed Torres to equalize the score. Gerrard scored a penalty kick before midfield to take the lead. In the second half, Vidic made another mistake and received a red card. Liverpool

Aurelio took advantage of this free kick to seal the victory, and Dossena added the icing on the cake in stoppage time.[

Li Yu has been working hard since Manchester United fell behind on the field, but today does not seem to be the day for Li Yu to score goals. He missed the goal many times, and the closest distance was less than 10 centimeters.

The most important thing is not that Manchester United's forward line is ineffective, but that Manchester United's defenders are collectively out of control and collectively ineffective, resulting in this great defeat.

Vidic's abnormality caused Manchester United to collapse. The headline of "Sky Sports" listed the Serbian's name mercilessly, saying that his fall was the reason for Liverpool's rapid progress.

However, Ferguson had a different view on this: "Vidic is also a human being. All players make mistakes sometimes, but he has been stable this season."

As Ferguson said, although Vidic was obviously a loophole that was "exploded" by Liverpool, it is not worth worrying about. After all, strength and status are two different things. The Serbian has proven his ability and he will not continue like this.

, but there is a less eye-catching loophole that is more worrying for Ferguson, and that is the gap behind the Manchester United full-back.

As the saying goes, Evra provides great offensive support, but often leaves space behind him. Ferguson used to make up for this by shrinking the formation and defense line when encountering strong teams, but today his mentality is a bit arrogant, and he wants to press out as a whole.

Eaten Liverpool in one bite and revealed the gap behind the defense. Yes.

For Vidic, this defeat should be forgotten as soon as possible, but for Ferguson, this 1-4 is a reminder. When encountering an opponent with an attacker with good speed and impact, it will go back to last year's game against Barcelona.

The "cautious approach" may sometimes be more effective than competing for the situation and momentum.

The peak Premier League showdown between Manchester United and Liverpool ended convincingly with Manchester United losing and Liverpool winning.

After this campaign, Manchester United led Liverpool by 4 points with one game in hand. With nine rounds left in the league, it seems that the championship situation has turned around. But as long as you analyze it carefully, you will know that Liverpool Or if Chelsea wants to catch up or even surpass Manchester United in the final stage, it will be an almost impossible task.

Manchester United's opponent in the minor round is Portsmouth. The Red Devils will face Pompeii in the home make-up. Considering Manchester United's home record in the league this season (12 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss so far this season), Manchester United It is very possible to win the relegation team Portsmouth at home. If things develop normally, Manchester United will firmly pocket these 3 points in the make-up game.

In other words, with 29 league games played at the same time, the Red Devils' real lead should be around 7 points.

Assuming that Manchester United can really lead by 7 points after the make-up, let’s take a look at the Red Devils’ next schedule. The 9 rounds of the league include 4 home games and 5 away games. The 4 home games are against Villa at home, against Arsenal, and against Arsenal. Manchester City and Tottenham, among which Tottenham is a relegation team; Villa and Arsenal are fiercely competing for the Champions League tickets for next season; Manchester City wants, but it is a derby battle with Manchester United.

Last season, Manchester United was double beaten by Manchester City in the league. This season, it goes without saying that the revenge of Derby will definitely be avenged; against Arsenal, the Red Devils will definitely put revenge at the top of the list. This season, Manchester United has so far failed in the minor leagues. So far, they have achieved an embarrassing record of 1 win, 1 draw, 3 losses and 4 points. Compared with Liverpool's 4 wins, 1 draw and 13 points, it is simply terrible. In the first round away game against Villa and Tottenham, Manchester United failed to compete with their opponents. Fang Yanhe, Sir Alex Ferguson will definitely not waste any opportunity to score 3 points this time. Based on Manchester United's super home scoring rate, it is normal for Manchester United to score 10-12 points in these 4 home games.

Manchester United's remaining five away games are against Fulham, Sunderland, Middlesbrough, Hull City and Wigan. Among them, Middlesbrough, Sunderland and Hull City belong to the relegation corps, while Fulham and Wigan belong to the relegation group. team.

Among them, Hull City's home league record is only a pitiful 3 wins, 3 draws and 8 losses, ranking last among the top 20 in the Premier League. Manchester United should have no problem winning this game; Middlesbrough's Riverside Stadium is very magical. Last season, Manchester United was here. They tried their best to get 1 point in danger. Now facing Southgate's team that aims to avoid relegation, Manchester United will definitely go straight for the three points. Fortunately, the home team's record at the Riverside Stadium this season is only 4 wins, 6 draws and 4 losses. , ranking 16th in the Premier League, Manchester United should be able to get 3 points here; Wigan is the blessed place where Manchester United won the championship last season. This time they return to their hometown, I believe that the eager Bruce will not embarrass Sir Alex too much; Sunderland recently In the past few seasons, they have almost lost all the games against the top four teams. This season they only took 2 points from Arsenal. It is difficult for the Black Cats to stop Manchester United's progress; Fulham's home court is very fierce this season, but Manchester United this season I have already played against the Farmers twice, winning 3-0 in the home league make-up game and winning 4-0 in the FA Cup away game, so I have an absolute psychological advantage.

Taken together, among these 5 league away games, the Riverside Stadium in Middleburgh is the only venue where Manchester United can lose points. In these 5 away games, Manchester United will likely get 13-15 points. In other words, Manchester United will score 13-15 points in the last 4 games. The most they lose is 2 points at home in the league, and the most they lose is 2 points in the 5 away league games. In the entire remaining schedule, Manchester United will lose a maximum of 4 points in total. When the goal difference is superior to Liverpool, as long as If the points are equal, Manchester United will be ranked in front of Liverpool.

Looking back at Liverpool's schedule, the Red Army will face Villa and Arsenal at home in the following games, and will challenge Fulham, which has an excellent home record, and West Ham, which is very difficult to deal with, away from home; Chelsea's schedule is even worse, and the Blues will play at home.

In the league, they will encounter the powerful Everton and derby rival Fulham; in the away game, the Blues will challenge the three major derby opponents: Tottenham, West Ham, and Arsenal. If they want to get all the points, it is almost impossible.

It's impossible.

Therefore, it is difficult for the current Manchester United team, which has become more cautious, to lose almost a 7-point lead in the last 9 rounds.

In particular, Chelsea and Liverpool, as pursuers, cannot make any small mistakes.

Once the pursuers make a mistake, Manchester United will not lose the championship, but will have a very good chance of winning one or two rounds ahead of schedule.

This will also be Manchester United's third consecutive league title and the fourth title they have won this season.

In the peak showdown between Liverpool and Manchester United, it was Torres who equalized the score for Liverpool, and Gerrard was the hero who defeated Manchester United. The Red Army flag-bearer first created a penalty kick and scored it himself, helping Liverpool to overtake the score to 2-1.

; and then tempted Vidic to foul himself, allowing

Manchester United's future best of the season graduated early, and with this free kick, teammate Aurelio rewritten the score to 3-1. With 15 minutes left in the game, he took the lead by two goals and scored more.

The one-man Red Army did indeed win very comfortably just as Gerrard said.

"From the front line to the defense line, it was a gorgeous team performance today. We were one goal behind, but we showed strong character and got the score back. In the end, when they sent off one person, the game became very comfortable.

, very easy, but even when it was 11 versus 11, we still performed very well." After defeating Manchester United, the point gap between Liverpool and Manchester United was temporarily reduced to 4 points. Of course, the Red Devils still have a home game against Portsmouth.

Mouth did not play in the make-up game

, Gerrard hopes that this great victory can help the Red Army once again rekindle the hope of winning the league championship. "The most important thing is that the points have narrowed a bit, but we still have a lot of hard work to do. I hope today's

The result also gives other teams confidence that they can also beat Manchester United. We have been lucky enough to win here before, and it feels great to score a goal, especially considering what I have experienced here in the last 10 years.

In terms of the treatment received.”[

Let’s take a look at the clips of Gerrard’s performance in this game. In the 12th minute, Aurelio passed through and Gerrard dribbled the ball into the penalty area. Vidic was already stuck, but Gerrard alertly moved from

The ball was pushed to the center from behind. Unfortunately, due to Leo's interference, the Liverpool players did not get the ball; in the 43rd minute, Toto

Reis made a through ball, but Evra was too slow to return to defense and tackled Gerrard. The referee decisively awarded a penalty kick. Gerrard withstood the pressure and hit the penalty kick himself. 2-1, Liverpool successfully overtook the score.

After Gerrard scored, he kissed the team logo and the camera lens. The camera quickly found the depressed person on the other side.

Rooney. The first half went into stoppage time, and Gerrard's long shot was blocked; in the 75th minute, Kuyt passed the ball with his heel, and Vidic made a tactical foul and pulled down Gerrard, who had already made a breakthrough, and was blocked by the referee Willy.

A direct red card was shown; in the 85th minute, Evra made a header error and Babel made a mistake in the penalty area.

The ball was given to Gerrard, who shot high. After the ball failed to score, Gerrard smiled instead. For the first time in 7 years, Liverpool double defeated Manchester United in the league. Gerrard was in deep form. Throughout the game,

Gerrard scored 2 shots and 1 shot on target, created 3 free kicks, and made 1 tackle and 2 clearances.

This season, Gerrard has scored 18 goals in all competitions, including 10 Premier League goals (4th in the Premier League scorer list), 7 Champions League goals (1st in the Champions League scorer list) and 1 FA goal

Cup goals; Torres has scored 11 goals in all competitions, including 9 Premier League goals, 1 FA Cup goal and 1 Champions League goal. Together, the two have scored 11 goals in all competitions.

29 goals, including 19 Premier League goals. The Liverpool team has scored a total of 49 goals in the Premier League this season. Gerrard and Torres accounted for nearly 40% (39%) of them. The two of them constitute

Even looking at the whole of Europe, their attack combination is one of the best.

In the 24th round of the Premier League, Liverpool defeated Chelsea 2-0 at Anfield Stadium. It was the first time in 19 years that they defeated Chelsea twice in a season. Torres scored twice. In this league match away from Manchester United, Torres' goal helped the Red Army equalize.

The score, and Gerrard's penalty kick helped the Red Army complete a 2-1 lead; against Real Madrid in the Champions League at home, it was Torres who opened the scoring this time, and it was Gerrard who scored twice. This season, Gerrard

Ladd gave full play to his role as a leader and led the team to complete the feat of consecutive double defeats against Chelsea, Real Madrid and Manchester United in the same season.

After the second leg of the Champions League 1\8 finals, Zidane publicly stated in an interview that Gerrard is the best midfielder in football today. After reading the following data, do you still refuse to recognize Gerard?

Is Germany the number one midfielder in football?

In the 2001 League Cup final, Liverpool defeated Alaves 5-4 and successfully won the championship. Gerrard scored the team's second goal; in the 2003 League Cup final, Liverpool defeated Manchester United 2-0 to win the championship. Gerrard helped the Red Army in the game.

Opening the scoring; In the 2006 FA Cup final, Liverpool defeated West Ham on penalty kicks to win the championship. Gerrard scored two goals in 90 minutes, helping Liverpool tie the score 3-3 in stoppage time; 2005 Champions League final

, Liverpool defeated Milan with a penalty kick to win the championship. Gerrard took the lead in getting a goal back with a header in the second half, and created the penalty kick that eventually tied the score 3-3...

In today's football world, how many players have scored in the League Cup, FA Cup, UEFA Cup and European Champions Cup finals, and also helped the team win the cup? What's more, Gerrard

He is just a midfielder. Strictly speaking, scoring goals is not a task he must complete.
