Chapter 626: A Chance to Breathe

Chapter 626 A chance to breathe

The game has been a day, but Arsenal fans are still unwilling to accept this fact: their team actually lost to Manchester United again, and Arsenal has not won Manchester United in the league for three years!

After the game, London media pointed the gun at referee Graham Pohl's law enforcement, believing that Manchester United's second goal was fouled first and that he was unfair to Fabregas.

The Sun also violently criticized Park Ji-sung, criticizing that the Koreans are garbage players who lack basic morality and should be permanently suspended. However, the referee's official report after the game showed that Park Ji-sung did not have any provocative words to Fabregas.

"Manchester United did not make any inappropriate words and deeds against Arsenal No. 15." This is the original words in Boer's post-match report.

The Guardian also stood up to speak out for Park Ji-sung. The newspaper accused some media of deliberately slandering Park Ji-sung and Manchester United, which was a slander of the Korean gentleman.

The Sun criticized not only Park Ji-sung. Yin Jun, who raised two fingers to answer reporters' questions at the press conference, was considered by the Sun as a provocation to Arsenal and Wenger. This is not the behavior that a real gentleman should do.

In response, Yin Jun directly expressed his response to the Sun's allegations with "hehe".

The biggest beneficiary of this game was Fletcher. His outstanding performance greatly improved the reputation of Manchester United youth training genius Fletcher in the world football world, and it can even be described as the word "becoming famous in one game".

Although Fletcher has made some fame in the first two seasons, it was not until this season that the Manchester United youth training camp produced really received more attention.

Of course, the reason why Fletcher first attracted the attention of the media around the world was not very glorious, but he quickly responded. In the game against Chelsea, his goal helped Manchester United end Chelsea's unbeaten record, which was his reputation for being accused of the team's legendary captain.

He performed well in the game with Arsenal, had a steady defense, and made a shocking world wave in the offense, rewriting the score. This performance has won him countless fans.

After the game, many media around the world frequently mentioned Fletcher's name when reporting on this game, and even reported it as a front page. Fletcher's influence in the world has increased greatly, and even some pseudo-fans have heard of Fletcher's name.

After the game, the Premier League website also praised Fletcher: he ran without hesitation and was never tired of his life, built a barrier in front of the team's defense line, scored a wonderful gold goal at the critical moment, and after O'Shea was replaced, he took on Manchester United's midfield defense task alone, and he was the best in the game.

The away defeat of Arsenal allowed Manchester United to win a ten-game winning streak in the Premier League, which made Manchester United bit Chelsea tightly in the Premier League standings and not fall behind.

During this period, Manchester United and Chelsea have been running wildly in the Premier League standings. The gap between the team behind them is getting bigger and bigger with the Blues and Red Devils: Now, Liverpool, the third in the standings, is 15 points behind Manchester United!

Currently, Chelsea leads the standings with 19 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss, 58 points; while Manchester United follows 18 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss, 56 points; Liverpool plays for two games in 2 rounds, ranking third with 12 wins, 5 draws and 2 losses, 41 points.

Seeing that Chelsea and Manchester United have already achieved sky-high results and two teams are perverted and stable, many British media have said that a record high-scoring champion and high-scoring runner-up will be born this season.

It is said that one move will be exhausted again and then decline after three. In this long tug-of-war, the two teams' ability to withstand pressure is very tested. Once anyone makes a mistake, he may be left behind by his opponent and fall behind in the championship battle.

Three days later, Manchester United ushered in the third round of the FA Cup.

For this game, Manchester United rotated all eleven starters. Ferguson made such a choice. I don’t know if he looked down on Burton, a non-professional league team, and believed that using a full substitute lineup would be enough to win the game away, or whether he would exclude his plan to FA Cup.

It is worth mentioning that many Manchester United players are familiar with Burton's home court Pirelli Stadium. On November 14, just past, Ferguson personally led the team including Scholes and Smith to this stadium that cost 7 million pounds and has just been built and opened this season, and played a friendly match with Burton that was equivalent to the opening ceremony.

The reason why Sir was so polite to this inconspicuous team is obviously because its current coach, Nigil Clauve, was the son of Brian Clauve, a famous coach who unfortunately passed away last year.

"I have led the team to play against Brian twice in the FA Cup, and it turned out to be one win and one loss. We hope that the third time we will be lucky." Sir Judg said when talking about this old opponent.

In the early days of the Scots' office, Nottingham Forest led by Clouve was still a strong team in English football. It was precisely because of the unexpected victory in the FA Cup that he was away from the pressure on Ferguson at the time in January 1990, which led to the Manchester United dynasty of the past 10 years.

However, friendship is friendship. Burton, who has not yet entered the English professional league circle, still has an "impossible task" to play the role of "giant killer" in the game.

Solskjaer started as the captain, and Manchester United failed to seize limited opportunities in the game. Instead, Balzley's two key clearances in front of the goal line ensured the goal was not lost.

In the end, Manchester United played 0:0 against his opponent on the road, and both sides will replay at Old Trafford Stadium on a date.

This is also an acceptable result for both sides: Manchester United played with the substitute lineup, winning a breathing opportunity for the main lineup, and has not been eliminated from the FA Cup. For Burton, being able to play at Old Trafford Stadium also greatly improves their fame.

Of course, what really makes Burton happy is the economic gains.

According to the tradition of English football, non-professional league teams such as Burton will basically give up the income of the match day to low-level teams, which is considered to support the development of non-professional leagues with practical actions.

Although the Glazer family is vampires, they probably won’t take the blame to destroy this tradition.

With the huge capacity of Old Trafford Stadium and its current super high attendance rate, even if Burton loses the game, they will earn a huge income of millions of pounds!
