Football King Bale - Chapter 665
This season’s second round of the Manchester City derby and the first leg of the league’s derby, each scored one point in Etihad. Although this is a double-loss result, it is also a result that both sides can barely accept.
The Manchester City Derby, which has just ended its rival with the same city, Manchester United immediately ushered in another rival England Liverpool, the National Derby of England.
At 19:45 on September 25th, British local time, the 2013-2014 season of the English League Cup in the third round of a focus battle at Old Trafford stadium, the Red Devils Manchester United host the Reds Liverpool.
The first round of the Double Reds a month ago, Manchester United drew Liverpool 1:1 at Anfield, but nearly 5 home wins against Liverpool. The Reds won the last game at the Dream Theater in 2009.
Because the weekend will usher in a new round of Premier League games, and Manchester United’s situation in the league is not so good, Ferguson chose to rotate the lineup more. In addition to Van Persie who has not yet recovered from the injury, Bell in the striker Trident has also received a round of rest in this game. Manchester United’s starting lineup is goalkeeper De Gea, four-backs Rafael, Van Dyck, Phil Jones and Smalling; in the midfield, Valencia, Giggs and Pogba partner, the striker is Ash The combination of Lee Young, Hernandez and Rooney.
Because the team’s first captain Vidic, second captain Bell and third captain Evra did not play, Rooney wore Manchester United’s captain’s armband in this game.
Liverpool striker Suarez lifted the ban and came back, and Enrique also played in rotation. Suarez was suspended for 10 games in April this year because he bit Chelsea defender Ivanovic in the game.
At the beginning of the game, Liverpool had an advantage in the scene. Manchester United’s passing errors were frequent, but neither side had a good chance. Just 39 seconds into the second half, after Hernandez received Rooney’s corner from the edge of the penalty area, the volley pad scored and Manchester United scored a goal.
After a sluggish first half, he gradually recovered his status in the second half, creating many excellent opportunities for the Liverpool team, but unfortunately did not break the goal. Suarez first shot from the left side of the penalty area and hit the side net, then Suarez’s free kick was directly shot and was saved by Manchester United goalkeeper De Gea.
Rooney, who was everywhere in the game, also had two shots and nearly scored, but they were all saved by Mignole.
In the end, Manchester United won a 1:0 victory over Liverpool at Old Trafford and advanced to the fourth round of the League Cup.
In another game that day, Arsenal played 1:1 with West Brom in 90 minutes. After a penalty shootout, the “gunner” advanced to 4:3. Chelsea defeated Swindon 2-0 the day before and Manchester City defeated Wigan 5:0.
The fourth round of the League Cup was against Manchester United against Norwich, Arsenal against Chelsea, Manchester City against Newcastle, and the winner entered the quarterfinals.
………………
On the weekend, the Premier League battle reignited. In the first game starting at 12:45 noon, Tottenham sat in the White Hart Lane stadium to face Chelsea. In the end, the two sides became 1:1, shaking hands.
Because next week is the Champions League game day, so this weekend, teams with European missions, the schedule is scheduled for Saturday.
Shortly after the game between Tottenham and Chelsea, at three o’clock in the afternoon, five games started at the same time, and the Manchester City duo played at the same time. Manchester United face West Brom at Old Trafford, while Manchester City challenge Aston Villa to Villa Park Stadium.
Manchester United’s match between Old Trafford and West Brom is the 123rd main match between the two clubs. Previously, Manchester United had an advantage of 52 wins, 30 draws and 40 losses, including 14 against the Red Devils in the Premier League. Winning 3 draws remained undefeated. In fact, West Brom had only a pitiful 1 win in the last 20 matches. West Brom ended the previous 8 rounds of unbeaten league records last weekend.
Because midweek, he will travel to Ukraine to challenge the second opponent of the UEFA Champions League, Shakhtar Donetsk, so in this game, Ferguson did not arrange the strongest lineup to play. Goalkeeper De Gea, four-backers Phil Jones, Ferdinand, Evans and Ashley Young, midfielders Kant, Carrick and Pogba, forwards are Bell, Hernandez and Rooney Combination, Hernandez debuted in the Premier League for the first time this season, while Van Persie continued to sit on the bench.
………………
Because he is going to Ukraine in the middle of the week, in order to save the Champions League, Ferguson’s arrangement is that Manchester United will attack at the beginning of the game, hoping to solve the game in half time, and then replace the main players to rest.
According to this tactical arrangement, after the opening in the first half, Manchester United fully attacked, but there was no chance in the first 10 minutes except for a blocked shot from the front of the Bell’s big penalty area.
In the 10th minute, Mullenborg’s flying shoveling Pogba was warned by a yellow card. Sinclair was unfortunately injured while fighting for possession with Pogba, and Bellachino came off the bench temporarily.
In the 14th minute, Sesenion easily crossed the bottom line near the bottom line and was intercepted by Carrick. In the process of Manchester United’s counterattack, Pogba missed the opportunity to pass the ball too procrastinatingly. Carrick pulled down to delay the opponent’s anti-tactical foul. Jacob was warned by a yellow card.
Immediately, before Rooney made a low pass on the right, Hernandez failed to shove, and Maihir was shaken and the ball was confiscated.
However, Manchester United still broke the deadlock just thirty minutes after the game. Bell’s continuous pass at the top of the arc of the big penalty area swayed away, and a long shot penetrated the goal of West Brom. Bell was scoring a new goal. The eighth league goal of the season also helped Manchester United lead the score.
After taking the lead, Manchester United gradually opened up the situation, continuously threatening West Brom’s goal.
In the 32nd minute, Rooney took Bell’s cross and headed the ball, but this close shot was a stunned Bell.
After another two minutes, Manchester United once again ushered in a good opportunity to break the goal. Pogba took the ball from the left to pass the header from close range. The ball hit the beam and popped, then shot high. The referee raised the flag to indicate offside, but from the playback See the controversy.
In the end, Manchester United took a 1:0 advantage and entered the intermission.
………………
Although Manchester United scored only one goal in the first half of the match, Manchester United took advantage of the scene. If it weren’t for Manchester United to have a bit of luck, they would lead by at least 3 goals.
It is precisely because Manchester United has a large lead, so although Manchester United is leading 1:0, Ferguson replaced Bell at halftime to stay in the middle of the Champions League away game, and Belgian teenager Januzai Came off the bench.
Less than ten minutes into the second half of the match, Manchester United accidentally lost the ball.
In the 54th minute, Pogba sent a straight ball in the middle and wanted to find Januzai on the left. However, Pogba made an error in the estimation of Januzai’s speed, was first intercepted by West Brom players, Mullen got the ball and Amalfitano led the ball into the half, which also easily erased Ferdinand’s Frontal defense, facing De Gea’s fake shot and knocking down the Manchester United goalkeeper, the front of the small penalty area volleyed the goal and the score on the field became 1:1.
Ferguson’s face suddenly looked ugly. He attaches great importance to the two young people Pogba and Januzai, but he did not expect the two to perform a “how the mistakes were made”, which made West Brom even.
Ferguson regretted that he was still too big, thinking that with the advantage of Manchester United in the first half, it should be easy to suppress West Brom, which replaced Bell. But I didn’t expect that Manchester United with and without Bell is actually two teams. Then, Manchester United lost the ball.
Bell has been replaced and it is impossible to re-enter the scene. Ferguson, who is in a bad situation, immediately prepares Van Persie to come off the bench.
However, while Van Persie was preparing for the warm-up, Manchester United once again exceeded the score.
In the 57th minute, Rooney took a free kick on the left side of the front of the penalty area and hit the right corner of the goal with a right foot. When Hernandez dived for the top goal, the ball hit the corner of the goal after bouncing.
Although Hernandez did not score the ball, his appearance still interfered with the judgment of West Brom goalkeeper.
………………
After the game restarted, Van Persie came off the bench for Hernandez.
However, Van Persie’s debut did not bring much change to the situation on Manchester United’s court, and their goals were frequently threatened.
In the 59th minute, Mullenb missed a shot outside the penalty area.
In the 61st minute, Olson received a corner kick and took Ferdinand to head the ball. The ball hit the crossbar and popped out.
Immediately, Sesenion’s shot was high. www.mtlnovel.com~ Manchester United, whose goal was continuously in distress, was declared lost in the 67th minute of the game. West Brom organized an attack on the right, Amalfitano received the ball inside the penalty area and returned to do it. Ferdinand again marked a mistake. Bellachino scored with a left foot volley at the front edge of the arc in the restricted area and changed the score to 2:2!
After this, both sides failed to rewrite the score and the 2:2 draw was held until the end of the game.
………………
After the 6th round of the Premier League, people found that they did not know the Premier League standings this season. Because at the top of the list, it is not Manchester United that everyone is familiar with, nor Manchester City who has performed very well in the previous two seasons, but Arsenal who was mocked by the whole of Britain at the beginning of the season!
At 5:30 on Saturday afternoon, Arsenal visited Swansea. With the help of Bell national teammate Ramsey, Arsenal 2:1 Lectra Swan Sea, with a record of 5 wins and 1 loss to continue to occupy the top position.
Although Tottenham are tied by Chelsea, they still occupy the second place in the standings with 4 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss.

Relative to Manchester United’s draw, Manchester City are even more tragic, they were defeated by the home team 32 in Villa Park, the same score as the original Cardiff City guest.
