Chapter 729 The final chapter at the end of the season
The 2017-18 season has ended for all major European leagues, and the dust has settled on all major battlefields. Everyone around the world is waiting for Manchester City and Real Madrid to meet again at the top of Europe in Kiev, as well as the subsequent World Cup in Russia.
Three weeks ago, although they lost 3:4 in the away game, Manchester City, which was full of injuries, firmly rejected all the unrealistic fantasies of the Romans and reached the Champions League final for the second consecutive year with a total score of 8:6. Real Madrid all
Here we go again, why did Manchester City miss the date?
7:2 Basel in 1/8, 7:6 Liverpool in 1/4, and 8:6 Roma in the semifinals. Let’s not talk about how Manchester City played in this series. These scores alone are absolutely epic.
After returning triumphantly from Rome, there are still 25 days before the decisive battle in Kiev. Manchester City is not doing nothing during this period. They still have the last three Premier League games to play. Although the championship is already in the bag, they still have to complete the process.
On the fourth day after returning, Manchester City faced their 37th round opponent Huazhen at home.
The season has reached its final stage, and Huash Town are currently in the bottom five, only 3 points above the relegation zone. Before the game, West Brom, Swansea, Stoke City, Southampton, and Brighton were fighting for relegation.
The bleeding and tearful team called on Manchester City to play fair, that is to say, they begged Manchester City not to let Huazhen go.
Guardiola has no reason to let Hard City go, but he has even less reason to harm Manchester City's own interests and work for other teams. Zhuoyang, Debich, Gundogan, Kompany, and Jesus are not the generals who have been fighting fiercely.
If he doesn't make the squad, he just sits on the bench.
Lao Gua sent out a mixed lineup, led by David Silva, B seat, Sane, Mendy, Laporte, and Aguero who returned from injury.
After all, they are the new champions of the Premier League, and even a mixed lineup is enough to suppress Huazhen. Wagner's team relied on their tenacious defense to deal with the Premier League champions. In the end, the two teams tied 0:0, and Manchester City won the third draw of the season.
But the big mule and the big horse can't rest all the time to avoid the joints getting rusty, so when they faced the 31st round make-up opponent Brighton at home three days later, Zhuo Yang came on the stage.
Brighton unexpectedly defeated Manchester United 1:0 in the 37th round a few days ago, thereby announcing the success of relegation, so this game really didn't matter, and no team was calling for fair play.
In this game, not only did Zhuoyang start the game, but Fernando also returned from injury and came up to stretch his body in the second half. Manchester City is gradually gathering their formation, and it will not be easy for Real Madrid to take advantage of the lack of major generals like Liverpool and Roma.
At the City Stadium, Manchester City king Zhuo Yang scored a goal in the first and second half, easily raising the number of personal goals in the league to 42 this season, showing his crushing on other shooters and his good condition.
Seat B and Fernando scored one goal each, and Manchester City won its 32nd league victory this season with 4:1.
After 37 rounds, Manchester City had 32 wins, 3 draws and 2 losses, accumulating 99 points. Therefore, the team had a pursuit in the final round - to score over 100 points.
The opponents in the last round, Southampton, said in their hearts, "Ma bury batch". The Saints were fourth from the bottom in points, only 2 points more than Swansea, which was third from the bottom. One mistake could lead to catastrophe.
In fact, Southampton only needs one point, and coincidentally, Manchester City also only needs one point to make up 100. Lao Gua started Akun at the front end, B seat and Sane's starting lineup to get points, and with De Bruyne
After returning from injury, the Fedin bench combination that has not been seen for a long time in Manchester City's midfield has reappeared.
Mark Hughes set up a 5-4-1 defensive formation at St. Mary's Stadium. From McCarthy to Maya Yoshida, from Cedric to Hojbjerg, from Plante to Romeu, all the famous players worked together.
Plunge into the pocket, leaving only Austin Quan in front to act as a containment.
Therefore, with a tacit understanding, the two sides managed to score 0:0 in the first 80 minutes, with very few fouls and no yellow cards, making it impossible for them to compete.
In the 82nd minute, Lao Gua replaced Zhuo Yang and Jesus at the same time for the purpose of moving the ball.
It can only be said that Zhuo Yang didn't understand the rules. It was obvious that the peace ball passed around by everyone was numb, but in the 90th minute, he swayed Maya Yoshida in the corner of the penalty area and suddenly shot a cold arrow, hanging in the far corner to directly change the score.
1:0.
Not fastidious, too fastidious!
The Saints immediately became anxious. In just three minutes of stoppage time, four people received consecutive yellow cards, and they protested Zhuoyang's indifference with a spirit of risking their own lives.
You can't play football, and you can't kick people either.
In the 904th, in the last 20 seconds of stoppage time, Zhuo Yang overturned Romeu, then overturned Hoibel, and sent Jesus a single counterattack.
Therefore, Shunliu very wisely scored Manchester City's last goal in the league this season. Manchester City won 2:0, with 33 wins, 3 draws and 2 losses, accumulating 102 points, setting a Premier League record.
However, Southampton, who lost at home, quickly lost their temper, because in another relegation battle held at the same time, Swansea was defeated 2:1 at home by Stork City, which was still relegated. Southampton
Landed successfully.
Then everyone was peaceful. The Saints congratulated Guardiola for leading the team to set a record, and congratulated Zhuo Yang for setting a record.
At the end of the 2017-18 Premier League season, Zhuoyang set the goal record at 43. Behind him were runner-up Salah with 32, third-place Kane with 30, and fourth-place Vardy with 20.
Champion Manchester City had 102 points, runner-up Manchester United had 81 points, third-place Tottenham had 77 points, and Liverpool finished fourth with 75 points. FA Cup champion Chelsea finished fifth, and Kong Erluzi announced his resignation.
Arsenal sixth, Wenger announced his retirement.
Bundesliga champion Bayern, top scorer Robert Lewandowski scored 29 goals. Madiburg finished fourth 30 points behind Bayern, but in the German Cup final, with Stindl's brace and Ninis' goal,
Unexpectedly defeated Bayern to win the championship.
Serie A champion Juventus, but the Bianconeri were only 4 points ahead of runner-up Napoli. Immobile and Icardi both scored the most 29 goals in Serie A. Juventus also defeated AC Milan 4:0 in the Italian Cup final to win the
champion.
Barcelona won the double crown in La Liga. Messi scored 34 goals in the league. He is also the closest shooter to Zhuo Yang in Europe. Ronaldo scored 26 goals. Maybe he is preparing for a big move.
Paris also won the French Ligue 1 double title. Cavani scored 28 goals and became the top scorer. Neymar ranked third with 19 goals. Mbappe scored 13 goals and ranked outside the top ten, not as good as Nice striker Balotelli.
18 balls are eye-catching.
The UEFA Cup ended the season ten days earlier than the Champions League. Coach Simeone's Atletico Madrid defeated Ligue 1 Marseille 3-0 in the final without any explanation.
Although Athletic Bilbao stopped in the last 16 of the UEFA Cup, the team's 37-year-old veteran striker Aduriz was the top scorer with 11 goals.
The eyes of the world are temporarily focused on Kiev before the World Cup, where Manchester City, the most popular player in Europe, and Real Madrid, the most experienced player, will write the second season of their feud here.
On the one hand, it has the most terrifying shooter and the most powerful offensive power, and on the other hand, it has the most solid defense and midfield control.
