() Manchester United played against Liverpool, before the double red match took place, a voice suddenly came out.
Manchester United forward Owen said that if he played and scored against Liverpool on Sunday, he would celebrate.
In Carragher's memorial match last week, Owen returned to Anfield and played in a Liverpool jersey. Red Army fans had mixed reactions to him. Some cheered and applauded, while others booed. Speaking of facing Liverpool again on Sunday, Owen
Said he would definitely celebrate if he scored a goal.
"I'm a professional football player," Irving said. "During the game, I hope to play and perform well. I hope to score a goal, and I hope the team doesn't concede a goal."
"I'm not the first player to face my old team, and I won't be the last. Yes, if I score, I will celebrate, it won't be a problem. If I give other answers, people might
I think it’s ridiculous.”
Talking about his choice to join Liverpool's rival Manchester United, Owen said: "I don't deny that playing for Liverpool has made me proud, but I am a professional player and I have to consider getting the best chance to win trophies.
Make a living and play football at the highest level possible."
"Just like a random person on the street, if he gets an opportunity to move from one newspaper company to another, or from one bank to another, if the job opportunities are better and the conditions are better, I'm sure everyone will do the same.
Made.”
"So I'm not the same as the fans, my loyalty is to the team that pays my salary, and that's the fact of being a professional player. It can be hard for fans to understand because they support one team their whole life.
They will never understand it, but they have to open their eyes and look at the Premier League and look at the players who have transferred."
Although he said that he came to Manchester United to compete for more honors, Owen admitted that the current situation made him tired and he no longer wanted to sit on the bench. "There is no way, you can only do your best and prepare in training, so when you become a head coach,
You can be ready when you are sent out. Beyond that, the decision is up to the coach."
"It's easy to say, but maybe the hardest thing is when you can't play for a few weeks, and then suddenly you are called on to play, and you have to be in shape physically and mentally."
"When the season is over, I'll look back and think, 'Am I happy with the number of games I played?' At a team like Manchester United, you never know when the manager is going to use you."
It sounds like Owen is not satisfied with his situation of not being able to play in the game, and Aston Villa coach and former Red Army coach Houllier has made it clear that he hopes to introduce Owen. If the situation of playing as a substitute at Manchester United continues, maybe the England striker really
will consider other options.
The former golden boy's life at Manchester United was not easy, and he didn't even know whether he would be able to play in the games.
Unlike Irving's situation, Li Yu's main position is almost certain.
The pressure on Manchester United's No. 9 comes from whether his previous excellent performance can be continued in the double red club.
It can be imagined that after 4 rounds of competition, Li Yu has scored a terrifying 6 goals. More than half of Manchester United's goals come from the stable output of Manchester United's No. 9.
Liverpool was able to freeze Li Yu, the most threatening player in Manchester United's team, which is also a big attraction.
Including the Europa League qualifiers and play-offs, Liverpool under the leadership of Hodgson has won five consecutive victories in the European competition in the new season. After defeating Steaua Bucharest 4-1 at home, the English native
He is also handsome and energetic
Accepted the interview. "I am very happy to see Joe Cole finally score. His lightning strike gave the team the initiative at the beginning. I saw his active performance throughout the whole game, especially in the first half.
To be more outstanding, he finally found his form."
After that, Hodgson shifted the topic to his opponents. "Although they always control the ball in their own half and rarely have the opportunity to attack our penalty area, they still performed very actively and worked hard, and gave us the victory."
It created a lot of difficulties. But fortunately, Joe Cole's flash and perfect performance helped us solve the game."
Hodgson then turned his attention to Ngogo, who scored twice in the game. "I think his performance on the field is trustworthy, including the penalty kick. Although I didn't think he performed very well in the first half.
Confident, but as the game progressed, his performance got better and better, and his self-confidence also increased sharply.
In the second half, Ngego showed dominance and forward movement. This was also due to the huge advantage of our midfield and the many good opportunities created. As a center, Ngogo
His self-confidence is constantly improving, and he has demonstrated through his performance that he is capable of anything."
"After that, I gave Babel some time and put him at the front, but he had some muscle cramps, so I had to replace him." Then he talked about coming on as a substitute and scoring a ground-breaking goal.
Regarding Lucas, Hodgson continued: "I don't care about anything else. Replacing Lucas is just a matter of time."
It was because we needed to strengthen the control of the midfield and maintain the fruits of victory, and Babel had some minor physical problems. So I arranged for Lucas to go up and strengthen the defense, and he scored a great goal, which was great for
It's perfect for the team and for him, I don't even know how to praise him enough."
Hodgson also deliberately "hidden" many main players including Gerrard, Torres and Skrtel in this game, no doubt in order to prepare for this weekend's battle with Manchester United. In this regard, the Red Army coach continued to say
Said: "These players played for the national team and then played in the last round.
We participated in the league, so we deserve a rest. Besides, we still have a tough battle to fight this week. Moreover, the players in this game completed the task very well. This is a happy ending. Now I just want to enjoy it.
Win and then think about the weekend game tomorrow."
It is not difficult to see that both teams have put a lot of energy into the upcoming double red.
Manchester United had 5 wins and 1 loss in the previous 6 league home games against Liverpool, but in the past 2 seasons, the Red Army has only 1 win and 3 losses in 4 games. The two sides have met in 36 Premier League games, and Manchester United has the upper hand with 19 wins, 7 draws and 10 losses, including 10 wins and 4 draws at home.
4 losses. This is the 180th match between the two sides in history. Previously
Manchester United has a slight advantage with 69 wins, 50 draws and 60 losses. Ferguson rotated 9 people, Rooney and Fletcher continued to start. Ferdinand, who returned in mid-week, was absent due to illness, and Vidic served as captain. For Liverpool, Gera, who was rested in mid-week,
De and Torres both played, and Joe Cole continued to start after being released from the ban.
Li Yu and Rooney start together again. Let's see if Manchester United's 9 can reactivate Manchester United's No. 10. When the two play together, they can always produce good sparks. However, the opponent is also very difficult. Can Liverpool make them both?
Find Ferguson's desired form?
Everything has to be found in the game.
The day of the match was at noon on the weekend. Manchester United fans were gradually getting used to this kind of match time that was specially changed for the Asian audience. Many fans marched to Old Trafford with great breath.
The closer they get to the stadium, the more excited the Manchester United fans become. It seems that the stadium has magic power and is constantly dispelling the tiredness of visitors.
When you step into the stadium, who can see the roar of the fans? They are enthusiastic in small groups and shouting slogans excitedly from time to time in front of the camera. The stadium has such magic, whether it is on or off the field, it can
It makes people so fully immersed!
When the two teams entered the stadium before the game, the camera kept switching between Li Yu and Rooney. The subtext was also very obvious. Who of the two will perform better today?
At the beginning of the game, Manchester United showed a strong desire to win at Old Trafford. Are there any three goals?
First use three axes to suppress the opponent's momentum. Even if Liverpool is a dragon, it still has to hold on at Old Trafford.
Ferguson's tactical arrangement is also aimed at Liverpool and fighting the Red Army. The first thing is to suppress the Red Army's arrogance. Once the Red Army shows its own momentum, it will be a headache for everyone. Now that it is suppressed, the game will be much easier to play.
His momentum was suppressed, but he didn't threaten the ball much more than his opponent.
The two teams were spending more time on each other in the first half.
Many people think that if they want to see a wonderful goal, they have to wait until the second half.
At this moment, Manchester United No. 9 stood up.
Manchester United broke the deadlock in the 42nd minute. Giggs took a left corner kick. Li Yu got rid of Stekel's defense in an instant and scored with a header from the edge of the small penalty area before Torres.
1:0!
Li Yu scored with a direct header!
Li Yu, who is omnipotent, how did he know it was the front point? The moment he kicked off, he broke away from Stekel and ran directly to the front point!
It's so beautiful. Manchester United is leading at home. Manchester United's advantage will be even greater in the second half. If the Liverpool people want to take something away from Old Trafford, they must attack, so Manchester United will have more opportunities!
After the start of the second half, the Liverpool people immediately launched a crazy counterattack.
Manchester United also plays very realistically. You attack your opponent, let you attack, and I will counterattack.
Everyone knows that Manchester United's efficient and fast counterattack is a major killer weapon of the Red Devils.
Come!
As expected, it was not a Liverpool player who changed the score, but Manchester United No. 9 Li Yu who scored the goal.
Manchester United expanded the score in the 59th minute. Nani made a pass from the right. Li Yu stopped the ball with his thigh at 14 yards and then hooked the goal. The ball hit the lower edge of the crossbar and entered the net.
The whole audience was in a state of excitement. Li Yu was in really good condition today. Look at his movements, how cool and unrestrained he was. He lifted the football on tiptoe with his thigh, took advantage of the situation and made a barb, and the ball went in!
With 8 goals in 5 games, the terrifying Manchester United No. 9 broke out again today. He was the master of the game and his goals dominated the game.
Ferguson's incredible expression after scoring the goal was the biggest compliment for Li Yu's goal. It was so wonderful. This year's Li Yu is invincible.
The game went very smoothly. It seemed that it was only a matter of time before Manchester United won the game, and the Liverpool people could not make any waves.
The carelessness after taking the lead cost the Manchester United players the rest of the game.
Liverpool was not defeated by Li Yu's second goal. On the contrary, they attacked with all their might and became more and more threatening.
Scenes of ups and downs in football matches are common, but counterattacks like Liverpool's are really rare.
Liverpool got back a win in the 64th minute. Joe Cole made a direct pass. Torres was tackled by Evans when he broke through the right rib of the penalty area. The latter received a yellow card. Gerrard hit the penalty kick directly.
2:1!
One penalty, a comeback, and a one-goal lead that already looked minuscule.
Sure enough, Liverpool immediately seized another opportunity.
Liverpool equalized the score in the 70th minute. Joe Cole made a direct pass. O'Shea, the last man in the defense, pulled down Torres in the arc of the penalty area and was given a yellow card. Gerrard shot a free kick from the top of the arc in the penalty area. The ball went from Frye on the side of the wall.
Cross between Che and O'Shea into the net.
2:2!
Two fouls, two yellow cards, finally turned into two equalizing goals.
Just look at Ferguson roaring on the sidelines and you will know how angry these two goals made him.
Li Yu was also very surprised. What happened? The two-goal advantage was gone in just 7 or 8 minutes.
Manchester United's No. 9 did not show his dissatisfaction on his face, but was more active in looking for opportunities. The game is not over yet, everyone still has a chance. Of course, what Li Yu wants is an opportunity on Manchester United's side.
Manchester United took the lead again in the 84th minute. O'Shea passed from the right. Li Yuyuan beat Carragher from 8 yards and scored with a header to complete a hat-trick. This was his ninth league goal this season. It was also the first time Manchester United faced each other in 64 years.
Players who scored a hat-trick for Liverpool.
Li Yu scored another goal. His goal came so timely. Just like the first goal, it was also a header. Li Yu's performance was quite comprehensive today. In fact, the Liverpool people have done a very good job today. Everyone knows
Li Yu poses a greater threat at the feet. Liverpool did not allow Li Yu to seize any opportunities at the feet. Strictly speaking, today's three goals should be considered high-altitude operations.
3:2!
When Li Yu scored the third goal, he looked very calm, looking around the audience and enjoying the cheers of the fans. Of course, the fans did not forget who allowed them to enjoy such a wonderful moment.
"lee...lee!"
The fans celebrated and shouted the names of their heroes.
Ferguson also used substitutions to allow Li Yu to once again enjoy the highest praise of having all the fans chanting his name.
In the 88th minute, Li Yu and Nani were replaced by Gibson and Anderson respectively.
Ferguson's intention to make the substitution was obvious. To hold on to the final stoppage time, it was not like another accident would happen to him. He even gave up the offense and had to hold on.
The score of 3:2 remained until the end!
Manchester United won 3 consecutive home games, while Liverpool failed to win in 3 consecutive away games.
Manchester United and Liverpool, two clubs only 30 miles apart, are the two most successful clubs in England, each winning 18 top league titles.
This English derby attracted 211 countries and regions around the world to broadcast it, attracting as many as 580 million households to watch. In the past 20 times when the two teams faced off in the league, there was only one draw, which seems to indicate that this game will
In the game, there is a high possibility that the two sides will decide the winner. In the end, with Li Yu's magical
With a hat trick, Manchester United defeated Liverpool 3-2 at home. So far, since Ferguson took office in November 1986, he has played against Liverpool 49 times in the league, with a complete record of: 22 wins, 11 draws and 16 losses. In various categories, he has played against Liverpool 49 times in the league.
In the competition, Manchester United had a record of 70 wins, 50 draws and 60 losses against Liverpool, both of which had a slight advantage.
Before this campaign, in Manchester United's past three home league games, the Red Devils had won 3 games, scored 10 goals, and not conceded a goal. However, in these three games, Manchester United defeated Stoke City and Newcastle.
, opponents like West Ham are quite limited in strength.
Before the game, Liverpool's King Dalglish wrote in a column that if Liverpool or Manchester United lose this derby, their dream of competing for the title this season may be shattered.
Ferguson was a master of psychological warfare. He knew that although Benitez was gone, the main strength of Liverpool was still his direct descendants. Therefore, before the game, Ferguson took the initiative to target Benitez and started a psychological attack.
war.
Although Hodgson ignored Ferguson's psychological warfare, he felt bad before the game and believed that now was not the best time to play against Manchester United, which was quite suspected of showing weakness.
Benitez coached Liverpool for six seasons and spent a total of 239.2 million pounds on signings; during this period, Ferguson only spent 176.2 million pounds on signings.
Under the leadership of Benitez, Liverpool won 1 Champions League championship, 1 FA Cup championship and 1 Community Shield championship in these six seasons; Benitez spent a lot of money but did small things, and
Hodgson, who didn't spend much money this summer, led Liverpool to almost equalize in the face of adversity. This shows that Ferguson believes that Liverpool's "crime" lies with Benitez, and he has indeed not wronged the Spaniard.
"Media Mail" expert Jamie Redknapp said in his post-match column that Chelsea is a mixture of Manchester United and Arsenal. This is true. Chelsea people already have the fighting spirit, momentum and strength of Manchester United.
Arsenal's technology.
Compared with Chelsea's crazy goal difference of 20 goals, Manchester United's 7 goals are pitiful. And Ferguson also recognized Chelsea's strength before the start of this round. "Chelsea will definitely have a very easy start.
There's no doubt about it, but they have to play Manchester City and Arsenal next.
We've been in good form lately, last week, if we had scored six goals, I don't think Moyes would have complained, not many teams could do that against Everton. At Fulham, 3 goals before half-time.
We missed a penalty in the second minute, which is rare for Manchester United. We have to be a little more mature because making these stupid mistakes will kill you."
Manchester United failed to win the two away games they played before this season, but now they will play four away games in a row in 10 days. This is an absolutely devilish schedule.
On the afternoon of the 22nd local time, Manchester United will challenge Scunthorpe away in the League Cup; at 12 noon local time on the 26th, Manchester United will challenge Bolton Wanderers away in the league; on the evening of the 29th local time, Manchester United will challenge Watford away in the Champions League away game.
Lencia; On the afternoon of October 2nd local time, Manchester United will challenge Sunderland in the league away game.
These four games are crucial for Manchester United, especially the Champions League group stage match against Valencia and the challenge to Sunderland at the Stadium of Light after returning from Spain. This season, the "Black Cats" have defeated Manchester City and drawn at home.
Arsenal has a strong home court, so we have to guard against this. Manchester United's trend this season, after four consecutive away games in the past 10 days, may have some clues.
