On March 19, the 30th round of the Premier League began one after another. Manchester United played the old Trafford in the town, facing Fulham.

After winning the make-up match next week, Manchester United temporarily leads Chelsea by 2 points to top with 9 rounds left in the Premier League. The competition between the two teams is very fierce. Any carelessness may lead to their own elimination in this competition.

Despite the double matches in the week, Ferguson still arranged the main lineup at home. After all, it was the national team's match day soon, and Ferguson did not plan to stay in power or anything else. Ronaldo and Rooney supported Van Nystruei in the frontcourt, and Yin Jun continued to serve as the team's midfielder.

Manchester United almost created opportunities after the opening game, Ronaldo made a direct pass through Van Nistrui, but facing Yin Jun who was unguarded, the Dutch pass was completely wrong, which made Manchester United miss an excellent lead opportunity.

This was the most impressive game after Van Nistruei returned from injury. He then made a straight pass from Ronaldo in the penalty area. Rooney broke away from Goma's defense, but missed the Portuguese pass at the front point.

In the 11th minute, Roy Keane's 20-yard shot was blocked by Clater. Then Scholes made a cross from the left, and Yin Jun's powerful header missed the post.

Fulham was almost completely suppressed by Manchester United, and was defeated by Manchester United in the 21st minute of the game. Roy Keane passed the ball to Ronaldo, and the Portuguese broke through to 20 yards in front of the goal and shot hard at the top corner into the net.

This was the only goal of both sides in the first half. Although Manchester United held Fulham's attack at home, they failed to score more goals.

After the second half of the game began, Ferguson adjusted his tactics and strengthened his offense, hoping that the team could expand the score as soon as possible, because in the first leg of the two sides, Manchester United once led and controlled the situation away, but was equalized by Fulham at the last moment. The old man did not want the original incident to happen again.

However, Fulham's defense today was very steady, especially their Dutch goalkeeper Van der Sar, who had high contact in front of the goal, resolved Manchester United's attacks again and again, annoyed Ferguson on the sidelines.

When the game reached the 77th minute, Ferguson, who could not bear it, replaced Fanny, who had squandered almost a single chance on the field. Yin Jun was pushed to the front line and formed a trident with Ronaldo and Rooney.

This adjustment quickly achieved effect. In the 80th minute, Rooney's powerful shot on the right was blocked by Clayte, Scholes passed the ball, and Yin Jun's shot from the left side of the penalty area hit the target, helping Manchester United lock the score at 2:0.

In the end, Manchester United successfully won Fulham with a score of 2:0 at home. Although Chelsea swept Crystal Palace 4:1 at Stamford Bridge Stadium, Manchester United still ranked first with a 2-point advantage.

After scoring his 20th Premier League goal of the season and narrowing the gap with Henry to 2 goals, Yin Jun returned to China on a flight that night. In the next two weeks, he will fight for the country.

During this national team match day, the Chinese team will usher in two World Cup quarterfinals, namely away against North Korea and also away against Japan.

Before going to North Korea, a reporter interviewed Yin Jun and asked him about his thoughts on the list of the Lawrence World Sports Awards for the Best Male Athlete of the Year.

Ten days ago, the Lawrence World Sports Awards officially announced the shortlist of various awards in 2005. After being shortlisted for the Best Male Athlete of the Year last year, Yin Jun was once again on the shortlist of this award.

In fact, Yin Jun has been on the Lawrence World Sports Awards for three consecutive years. In 2003, he and Yao Giant were shortlisted for the Best Rookies of the Year together, but in the end they lost to Yao Giant; in 2004, Yin Jun was shortlisted for the Best Male Athlete of the Year, but in the end they lost to the Che King Schumacher and missed the award. This year, he was shortlisted for the Best Male Athlete of the Year again.

In the eyes of domestic journalists, Yin Jun is likely to win the award this year, because as the 2004 World Footballer and the European Golden Globe double winner, it is natural to win the Lawrence World Sports Awards Best Male Athlete of the Year.

If Yin Jun wins the Best Male Athlete, and Liu Feiren, who is very likely to win the Best Rookie of the Year, the Chinese will be very glorious at the Lawrence World Sports Awards.

Although Yin Jun didn't want to disappoint these reporters, he still believed that the possibility of winning the best male athlete of the year was too small.

In the past 2004, Yin Jun has been calling for the world football and has won numerous honors, but his competitors are also very strong.

Defending champion Schumacher continued to dominate the F1 arena, setting a record of winning 12 championships in the first 13 games.

King Fei began to officially dominate the tennis world, winning 11 championships throughout the year, including three Grand Slams, three Masters Series and Tennis Masters Cup championships, and was proud of the men's professional tennis world.

In addition, Yin Jun's opponent is Tour de France champion Armstrong. At this moment, Armstrong is not the later Armstrong who was disgraced due to the doping storm, but the anti-cancer fighter, the six-time Tour de France champion, and is in the limelight in the world sports world.

There is also Phelps, who emerged at the Athens Olympics last year and won six gold medals, and Rossi, who won the world MotoGP championship for the fourth time.

None of these five opponents is good, especially Schumacher and Federer, who are not inferior to Yin Jun in terms of fame and honor.

Of course, the main reason why Yin Jun is not optimistic about himself is the official favor of tennis and F1 by the Lawrence World Sports Awards, and the vague rejection of Chinese athletes.

Although football is called the No. 1 sport, it is far less popular than tennis, F1, and golf when it comes to the Lawrence World Sports Awards.

Although football has won some awards in the past five awards, it is basically a team project. Among them, Manchester United is the biggest beneficiary, and the Red Devils won the award for winning the triple crown in 2000. In addition, France and Brazil also won the Best Team Awards in 2001 and 2003 for the European Cup and World Cup.

But in terms of individual awards, football rarely wins. Only Pele won the first Lifetime Achievement Award, while Ronaldo won the comforting comeback athlete of the year in 2003.

With his Chinese identity, Yin Jun is not optimistic that he can defeat Federer and Schumacher and finally win the trophy.

Although Chinese people have often appeared at the Lawrence World Sports Awards ceremony in the past two years, and Yao Giant even won the award, Chinese people are not so popular in major awards such as the Best Athlete of the Year.

Of course, Yin Jun would not say these words, it was a complete slap in the face. He just said that he would try his best to win, but Federer and Schumacher are also great athletes and are completely likely to win awards.
