Chapter 0848 Wolf King
In three days, they narrowly defeated their opponents with a score of 3:2 twice. The Red Devils had had enough.
Although the Manchester United people were frightened by the process of the game, the resilience of this Manchester United was also seen.
This is the 21st time Manchester United has narrowly defeated an opponent this season!
These 21 narrow wins include 10 games 1:0, 4 games 2:1, 5 games 3:2 and 2 games 4:3!
Looking at the distribution of these 21 games, it includes 9 Premier League games, 5 Champions League games, 4 FA Cup games, and the remaining 3 games are Community Shield, UEFA Super Cup and Club World Cup.
These narrow victories brought about Manchester United's seven-time crown in 2006, and brought about Manchester United's current three-tier success in the Premier League, Champions League and FA Cup.
Especially the nine narrow wins in the Premier League, the outside media gave Manchester United the nickname "Nine Lives Demon".
However, the Manchester United people themselves obviously do not want to see so many narrow defeats. They even hope that Manchester United can steadily win the opponent with a big score.
After all, if you keep playing with your heartbeat like this, you might end up falling over at some point.
Take Chelsea for example. They have narrowly defeated their opponents by one goal this season in more games than Manchester United. In the Premier League, the Blues have narrowly defeated their opponents by one goal in 13 of the 32 rounds of the Premier League. However, they have not left any impression on people.
The impression of toughness makes people feel that they have lost their dominance in the Premier League.
Moreover, in 13 games with a narrow win by 1 goal, they also had 5 draws and 4 losses, which is far more than Manchester United who had 3 draws and 2 losses.
Because of too many narrow wins by one goal, as well as losses and draws, Chelsea fell behind Manchester United by 10 points early and had a goal difference of 25 points, almost losing hope of winning the championship.
Under such circumstances, it is difficult for you to connect their narrow victory with tenacity.
………………
Some people say that everyone has a city in his heart.
In the world of football, there is a person living in every city.
Raul in Madrid, Gerrard in Liverpool, Maldini in Milan, and of course Giggs, Scholes and Gary Neville in Manchester...
These people are using their careers and even their lives to write a story about loyalty.
And this man who lives in Rome is called Francesco Totti, nicknamed: Wolf King!
Totti and Yin Jun have been admired for a long time, but they have had very little contact with each other. The first round of the meeting at the Olympic Games in Rome was their first meeting.
Many people may think that Totti's name is not famous enough, but he is definitely one of the most outstanding superstars in this world. At least, that is the case in Yin Jun's mind.
Totti once had the opportunity to join Real Madrid, and was even very close to Real Madrid at one time, but he ultimately chose to stay in Rome, which made many people feel it was a pity because he could have achieved better results.
But this sentiment made Yin Jun admire him even more, because he knew very well how difficult it is to reject Real Madrid. It can even be said that this is a temptation that all professional players cannot refuse.
Staying or leaving is a choice worthy of respect, but Yin Jun admires this person even more. Therefore, in an interview with the media before the game, when the reporter mentioned Totti to Yin Jun, Yin Jun subconsciously said: "
I grew up watching Totti play."
This sounds a bit like a joke, but in fact it is not, because Totti is already thirty years old and has been playing professional football for more than ten years.
As for Totti, Yin Jun also expressed his respect. He believed that Totti was a great player and said that he was proud to compete with such a player. Although Manchester United won the first leg away from home
, but facing Roma led by Totti, the game at home will not be easy.
………………
Perhaps because of Yin Jun's remarks before the game, with a junior's respect for his senior, Totti also said in an interview with the media: "Yin Jun is already a great professional player, winning four consecutive European Ballon d'Or awards."
crown, three consecutive World Footballer titles, and even won the Laurentian title not long ago.
He is the best male athlete of the year in Sri Lanka, which is simply incredible. In the first round of the game, he came on as a substitute and helped Manchester United change the situation on the field. Now that he will start, I can only say that I hope he will not perform too well.
That's great because we're looking forward to beating them away from home!"
But Totti also said that this is the first time Roma has entered the Champions League quarter-finals in more than 20 years. The players are seriously lacking in experience, especially the experience of playing away games against English teams in the knockout rounds. Therefore, Totti said that in the case of losing at home,
It will be very difficult to reverse the situation and advance in the away game.
"I prefer to regard this as a smooth trip. We performed normally and achieved the results we deserve. Of course, if we want to satisfy the fans, then we need to do more and better."
………………
Compared to the friendship between Yin Jun and Totti, the atmosphere between Ferguson and Spalletti is full of gunpowder.
The Manchester United coach said in an interview with the media: "Yin Jun is the best player in the world, even though he is only 22 years old."
Spalletti said: "I don't know Yin Jun very well. On the contrary, I think Totti is better than anyone else!"
But soon, the Manchester United coach said again: "Totti? He is indeed very strong, but I am more worried about De Rossi and Mancini. These two players are the most threatening players in Rome."
Spalletti also said that he would not specifically develop targeted defensive tactics for Yin Jun.
"Maybe some teams will do this, but we prefer overall defense. We will not change our game strategy because of a certain opponent's player, even if that person is Yin Jun!"
Totti was angry that Ferguson did not list him as an opponent who needed special supervision. He vowed: "Ferguson, I will let you see with your own eyes who Totti is, and I will let you remember my name!"
Spalletti said: "I don't know Yin Jun very well. On the contrary, I think Totti is better than anyone else!"
But soon, the Manchester United coach said again: "Totti? He is indeed very strong, but I am more worried about De Rossi and Mancini. These two players are the most threatening players in Rome."
Spalletti also said that he would not specifically develop targeted defensive tactics for Yin Jun.
"Maybe some teams will do this, but we prefer overall defense. We will not change our game strategy because of a certain opponent's player, even if that person is Yin Jun!"
