Chapter 295 The national football team also has the right to choose!
Yang Xiaozhuang, who was training in the national football team, was always paying attention to Manchester United's performance while following the national football team. The performance of the "Red Devils" also made Yang Xiaozhuang more and more reassuring. The team did not fall into a slump because of his departure. Although it was quite difficult to play, except for Chelsea, he never encountered any strong opponents, and he won one after another.
On January 9, Manchester United beat Bournemouth 5:0 at home!
On January 12, the Chinese national football team went to the UAE and played the first group match of the Asian Cup Group D with the North Korean team at the Aldafra Stadium. With the help of Yang Xiaozhuang's 1 shot and 2 passes, the Chinese national football team defeated North Korea with a score of 4:0 and easily won a good start.
On January 13, Manchester United beat Luoqidale with 6 goals away from home in the third round of the FA Cup.
On January 16, Manchester United defeated Manchester City 3:1 at home in the first leg of the League Cup semi-finals, but the water in this victory was quite high. Guardiola seemed to have not given up on the league yet. He only sent the second team "Blue Moon" in this League Cup, of course, the purpose is to... consume Manchester United's energy!
On January 17, the Chinese national football team started the second round of the group stage of Group D of the Asian Cup. This time the opponent was replaced by the "old opponent" South Korean team. As a result, the Chinese national football team, which has taken Yang Xiaozhuang as the core of the offensive, made a strong attack in the game. Facing the Korean team, which has always been stronger than the Chinese national football team, made a big fight. With Yang Xiaozhuang's 2 shots and 1 pass, and an own goal given by the opponent, he scored 4 goals in the 90-minute game, and forced the Korean team to the ground and beat them up.
This victory also made domestic fans feel the joy brought by victory for the first time in many years, and also completely rekindled the fans' enthusiasm for the national football team...
On January 19, Manchester United beat Watford 7:1 at home.
After Manchester United won, the Chinese national football team lost 2:4 to Qatar in the third game of the group stage. Even Yang Xiaozhuang scored a goal in the game, but he was unable to help win the group in the end because... Yang Xiaozhuang played for 45 minutes.
This time, the Chinese national football team lost to Qatar. Not only did they not be criticized by domestic fans, they also praised the Chinese national football team because the Chinese national football team lost this game... that has a big background!
After the two rounds of group stages, the national football team that won two had already won the right to qualify in the group in advance. In theory, only when North Korea, which had defeated Qatar before, defeated South Korea in the last round, would the national football team only get second in the group if they lost to Qatar.
But... the strength of the South Korean team should be far above the North Korean team. The South Korean team, which lost to the national football team, should get 4 points.
If the Chinese national football team loses to Qatar, then... Qatar will also get 4 points!
Therefore, the Chinese national football team chose to "lose" this time!
Not only will you lose, but you will also lose two goals to Qatar. In this way, as long as North Korea does not lose three goals to South Korea, Qatar will become the second in Group D!
After the two simultaneous games were over, the Chinese national football team also got their wishes and "helped" Qatar occupied the second place in Group D with the advantage of goal difference, and the South Korean team eventually ranked third, and it would take a third-pointer to decide whether they could enter the quarterfinals.
After the game, some Korean media clamored to appeal, saying that they wanted to complain that the national football team violated the principle of fairness and fairness of competition, and even talked about this issue when interviewing Lippi. The respected "Silver Fox" was not spoiled at all and directly retorted: "Whoever plays on the Korean team, then I don't have the final say, but I definitely have the final say for my team. When ensuring that the group qualifies, do we have the reason to fight desperately with our opponents? Do you think my head is like you, and I'm all pretending to be mud?"
As the "Silver Fox" who led the Italian team to win the World Cup and has won countless championship trophies in his coaching career, would he care about a reporter?
However, Lippi's words made him feel full of impression points among domestic fans... It's so powerful!
After so many years, I have never lost so much, because this loss will not affect the ranking of the top in the national football team, but even made the Korean team feel disgusted. Then the loss of this ball... is so cool!
How many years have it been!
This time, the Chinese national football team can finally make their own choices in the competition!
On January 23, Manchester United beat Leicester three goals away, expanding its lead in the standings to 14 points, and this is the advantage gained in one less game. If you win in the make-up game, the lead can be expanded to 17 points!
This lead is really bigger than the sky!
When Mourinho led the team last season, although Manchester United finally won you all the way, they had never been ahead of you.
The English media are now criticizing Manchester City, Liverpool, Tottenham Hotspur, and Chelsea's voices. When Chinese Yang returned to China to play the Asian Cup, he could not seize the opportunity to chase Manchester United in the standings. So... when will you still have to wait for it?
Next season!?
But Guardiola has no choice but to do this. His team's performance is not bad. Moreover, the only game Manchester United lost this season was that they lost 0-1 to Manchester City at home.
However, who would have thought that Manchester United would be led to the "Red Devils" by Solskjaer this season?
Manchester United is simply arrogant now. No matter what opponent they encounter, they always defeat one opponent after another with their active running and fast-paced attack.
Hot-blooded young man, Mantester United!
This is the characteristic of the "Red Devils". With their cruel, fierce and tenacious style, they compete with their opponents. As long as their opponents are not as strong as themselves, they will basically win the game. If the opponents are very strong... they have to fight to know the result!
After so many years, the one who really made the "Red Devils" surrender was the "cosmic team" that Guardiola brought out back then. That confrontation really made Ferguson helpless and couldn't even touch the ball... How could he fight with his opponent?
