NOVEL NEXT Chapter 2181 The wind direction is wrong before the game, Manchester United is in danger!
As the league came to an end, the entire internet began to criticize Manchester City.
"Dugu M: Manchester City with all the main players can't beat Manchester United led by Ye. Do Manchester City still want to play in the semi-finals?"
"The Dark Demon of the Tower of All: The score was already 20 in the first round. In the second round, after the main players of Manchester United have rested, they will have to play against Manchester City 40?"
"Gu Mu who loves fairy tale meals: Manchester City bought Messi and thought they could compete with Manchester United, but Manchester United with Ye and Ronaldo is invincible!"
These views quickly gained momentum.
Some of the titles are also very eye-catching.
[A lone hero! Ye led Manchester United's substitutes to a strong draw with Manchester City, securing the Premier League title in advance! ]
[Manchester City draws 3-3 with Manchester United, countdown to Manchester United's Premier League title! ]
[C Ronaldo made a key assist, Ye Chen scored a hat trick to equalize Manchester City! ]
[Messi played well but failed to lead the team to victory. Manchester City may be left empty-handed again! ]
[Guardiola is too arrogant, Manchester City is not Barcelona! ]
【…】
All public opinion is in Manchester United's favor.
This made Ye Chen smell something bad.
After all, there must be a monster when things go wrong.
When Ye Chen returned to the team for training, he also heard his teammates' discussions.
"Who do you think we will draw in the Champions League semi-finals?" Rashford asked Grealish and De Bruyne.
"I think as long as it's not Sevilla, they are too difficult to play against!" Grealish gave his answer.
After all, we played there in the group stage, it was really difficult!
De Bruyne did not answer such a question, "Brother Chen is here, you ask him who he wants to face in the semi-finals?"
Ye Chen raised his eyebrows, "What do you think my answer will be?"
De Bruyne suddenly put on a stern face and imitated Ye Chen's tone and said, "You haven't played the second round yet, and you are thinking about the semi-finals. Are we going to play the game or not?"
Rashford and Grealish immediately became obedient.
Ye Chen raised his lips and gave Ding Ding a thumbs up, "You still understand me!"
Ye Chen immediately looked at the two young players, "Manchester City is the kind of team that can create miracles, don't underestimate them! If you want to predict the opponent, it won't be too late to predict it until they really reach the semi-finals of the Champions League!"
"Got it, Captain Ye!" Rashford and Grealish said at the same time.
Ye Chen smelled something wrong.
Manchester United's players showed arrogance, which is obviously a big taboo before the game...
For this reason, Ye Chen also found Ancelotti. Ancelotti naturally attached great importance to it and quickly convened an internal team meeting.
At the meeting, he emphasized one point, "Manchester City is now a top team in Europe, both in terms of tactics and personnel!"
"If you dare to underestimate them, they will use the score to tell you the consequences!"
"A two-goal lead is not safe, we must be fully motivated..."
In fact, the starting players have all seen many ups and downs, and their mentality has long been adjusted.
They expressed their attitude at the first opportunity.
The outside media is still constantly heating up Manchester United and cooling down Manchester City.
This is very wrong.
But Manchester United players also conducted secret training and tactical drills.
With a two-goal advantage, Manchester United didn't need to be so aggressive.
As for going to Etihad to fight against Manchester City, Anpan has no such idea for the time being.
Time passed quickly, and the closer it got to the match day, the more nervous the fans of both sides became.
Although we were leading by two goals, we didn't play the second game and we were still worried.
Of course, the game hasn’t even started yet, but major bloggers have already started making their predictions.
"With Manchester United's current form, a bunch of substitutes can tie with Manchester City. If the main players come on, won't they be able to score goals? It'll be an easy win!"
"I think Manchester United will win the game directly, let's bet on a draw!"
"This Manchester United team really doesn't know what losing is!"
"Buy Manchester United without any hesitation, and make a lot of money together!"
With all parties optimistic, the director also took action.
Because Manchester City is the home team and Manchester United is the away team, the odds are in favor of the home team.
Manchester City wins 3.6, draws 4.25, loses 1.9!
It is obvious that the director is optimistic about Manchester United.
Combined with the trend before the game, Manchester United's popularity exploded...
As time came to the evening of the 10th in Manchester, players from both sides had arrived at the Etihad Stadium in advance.
Both sides were exceptionally calm before the game.
Guardiola modestly stated that they were ready to be eliminated, but would not give up this game and they would do their best to defeat Manchester United!
Ancelotti once again stressed that Etihad is a devil's home ground and it is not easy to win here. Manchester United almost lost in the last game and does not want to give Manchester City any chance in this game!
The captains of both teams also expressed their opinions.
Kompany praised Ronaldo and Ye Chen, saying that they are world-class players who have the ability to change the game.
This compliment is very wrong.
Ye Chen did not provoke his opponent. "In the last game, we were lucky enough to draw with Manchester City, but such good luck will not continue, so we must show better performance! I hope we will be the last one laughing, but I can accept any result!"
Before anything starts, Ye Chen will be prepared to accept all consequences.
This is one of his inherent habits.
But there is no doubt that he will try his best!
Players from both sides came to the player tunnel one after another.
Manchester City is stronger today than in the last game because Wang Chu, who was suffering from foot discomfort, returned to the starting lineup.
"Zhongyang TV station! Zhongyang TV station!"
As the familiar voice appeared, the Chinese fans who had stayed up until about 2:40 p.m. all perked up and followed the camera to look at the player tunnel.
Ye Chen was chatting with Wang Chu.
"Is your foot okay?"
"It's okay... Oh, I really don't want to compete with you, it's too difficult!" Wang Chu shook his head and sighed.
"It was difficult to play without you in the last game, and it will be even more difficult with you today!" Ye Chen patted his shoulder.
As a teammate, he knows Wang Chu's strength best.
In fact, as a talented young man in China, he is quite talented.
After being redeemed by Ye Chen, he also improved...
I don’t know if it’s the effect of the bond.
Continue to improve as he becomes a player under Guardiola.
It is no exaggeration to say that he is a top midfielder now.
What does this feel like?
De Bruyne is good in the Bundesliga, but definitely not top-notch.
But as he joined Manchester City and became a player under Guardiola, his skills and football IQ have greatly improved.
This is how he became a world-class midfielder step by step.
This is also the ability of an excellent head coach to train players...
After a brief greeting, the players from both sides lined up in two rows.
The captain of Manchester United is naturally Ye Chen, and behind him are De Gea, Ding Ding and others.
Kompany is leading the charge for Manchester City.
Today's referee is the famous Spanish referee Laos.
This shows how much importance UEFA attaches to this game.
Of course, this game started first.
The match between Barcelona and Atletico Madrid also started at the same time.
However, in that game, Barcelona won four games in the first round, so if the second game is not too outrageous, they should be able to advance!
So almost all eyes are focused on this game...
A real focus battle!
