Chapter 74 The Champions League final is beckoning

Updated: 2012-11-09

Two-to-one! Manchester United defeated Chelsea at home, widening the gap by six points again. With two rounds left in the league, Chelsea's chances of winning the league championship are already slim. After this game, Chelsea fans can no longer tolerate Carlos Ancelotti's failure and shouted Carlos Ancelotti's dismissal, claiming that they are unwilling to see Carlos Ancelotti again next season. Moreover, Chelsea fans threatened Chelsea club, claiming that if Chelsea's manager is still Carlos Ancelotti next season, they refused to watch the ball at Stamford Bridge.

Okay, Chelsea fans actually started to force the palace. From this we can also see that Chelsea's Carlos Ancelotti can no longer tolerate it.

When Chelsea fans have a hard time, it is the best time for Manchester United fans to live. In this Tianwang Mountain, which concerns the ownership of the love champion, Gong Zheng performed extremely well. One consecutive breakthrough on the wing, and one extremely long-distance hoop shot from the backcourt made everyone exclaim that Gong Zheng is from outer space.

Gong Zheng's two goals also completely shattered Chelsea's final championship dream. Although he has not yet won the championship clearly, Manchester United fans have begun to celebrate wildly.

Gong Zheng has scored forty-three league goals in the Premier League this season, and he is simply a monster, which shocked everyone so much that he almost bleeded.

Chelsea lost the battle between the kings and the last one, and they also lost their last spirit. They no longer hope for the final league championship. In the last two rounds, Chelsea completely changed a team. The 37th round of the league, which was the second to last round, Chelsea unexpectedly tied by Newcastle at home 2-2. The league was the last round, and Chelsea lost to Everton by 0-by-1 away.

Although Manchester United was tied 3-3 by Blackburn in the 37th round, they still won the Premier League championship this round ahead of schedule. Gong Zheng scored a hat trick in this game, increasing his Premier League goals this season to 46.

After winning the final league championship, Gong Zheng only played halftime in this last round of the game, but in this halftime, Gong Zheng made great progress. He scored four goals in the fourth minute, twelfth minute, 26th minute and 40th minute of the game, and staged a big four-game joy, freezing his Premier League goals this season to fifty.

Oh my God! Fifty! Fifty goals in the Premier League in a single season. This guy is perverted, so perverted, not a human!

Everyone was shocked by Gong Zheng's super high efficiency, which made Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo and others say incredible.

Faced with Gong Zheng's outstanding performance, everyone in the world was shouting: "The earth can no longer stop him, the universe is his limit!"

Players who have played against Gong Zheng have proposed FIFA, hoping that FIFA can suspend Gong Zheng globally. This guy is simply an alien or a plug-in man compared to them. This is absolutely unfair. They called for Gong Zheng to participate in the Outer Space Star Cup football match, and the competition on Earth can no longer accommodate him.

Of course, this is just a joke. However, this guy's strength is really scary. He scored fifty in the league alone in a single season. In addition, this guy scored 81 goals in the UEFA Champions League, FA Cup and League Cup. This guy scored 81 goals this season alone. Oh my God, isn't this guy still a human?

Perhaps, in the world football world, there will be a guy who will score 100 goals in various competitions in a single season soon.

With the end of this season's Premier League, all the five major European leagues have ended. The Ross and Blacks regained the Serie A championship, Barcelona once again beat Real Madrid to the La Liga championship, Dortmund's outrageous team suddenly won the Bundesliga silver plate, and Lille miraculously broke through to the top of the Ligue 1 championship.

This season, there are dark horses, miracles, defending titles and suppression in the five major leagues, which is exciting. With the end of each major league, fans around the world have surrendered to the new Wembley Stadium in England, because the final of this season's UEFA Champions League will be held here.

This game has attracted much attention because the two sides against each other are the two best teams in the world today, namely Manchester United in the Premier League and Barcelona in La Liga.

The two teams met in the Champions League final two years ago. Barcelona defeated Manchester United in that game and won the championship. Two years later, the two teams met again in the Champions League final, which has to be said to be a fate. Of course, this is also called the battle of revenge for Alex Ferguson.

It is reported that Guardiola has basically finalized the roster of Manchester United in the Champions League final. The only suspense now is the choice of two players on the defense: Mascherano or Abidal.

If Mascherano plays central defender, Puyol will play left back; if Abidal, Puyol will play central defender, Mascherano will sit on the bench.

Guardiola was hesitant between Mascherano and Abidal because both players were deeply trusted by him. Abidal's performance proved that he had fully recovered from liver surgery, and during Puyor's absence, Mascherano's performance at the center back was also impeccable.

In addition to these two players, all the other positions have been selected to be Valdes, right back Alves, right center back Pique, midfielders Xavi, Iniesta, Butsques, strikers Messi, Villa and Pedro. However, according to the latest report from "World Sports", Guardiola has decided to make Mascherano, who is in better physical condition.

It is reported that Guardiola spent two days studying the final two years ago, and he dared not take Manchester United lightly. Guardiola was most impressed by one of the details of that game. This detail was not the goal of Etoo and Messi, but the scene when Cristiano Ronaldo's shot was saved by Valdes and Pique cleared before Park Ji-sung, who was making up.

In the past few days of preparation, Guardiola plans to use this picture to train his players not to be careless. Guardiola also modestly said: "When we participate in a Champions League final against Manchester United in England, we will never be the favorites to win the championship. They have participated in four finals in four years and have won two championships. If we think we are popular, we are a little arrogant."

Yes, Manchester United entered the final of the UEFA Champions League this time, the fourth time in four years has entered the final of the final. In 2008, Manchester United beat Chelsea and finally won the championship. In 2009, Manchester United lost to Barcelona and missed the championship. In 2010, Manchester United beat Inter Milan and won the championship again. This season, Manchester United will face Barcelona at the new Wembley Stadium and strive for the championship again.

In 1992, Barcelona won the last Champions League final held at the old Wembley Stadium, and the Red and Blues began to create an era; in 2011, Barcelona is looking forward to winning the championship again in the first Champions League final held at the rebuilt New Wembley Stadium, thus continuing a period of glory.

Some experts pointed out that Barcelona is not only a championship battle against Manchester United, but also a dynasty battle, because these are the two teams that have been at their peak for the longest, most stable and have won the most honors since the 21st century. Whether it is Barcelona or Manchester United laughing to the end, they are worthy of the highest honor of "dynasty" while holding up the trophy.

World Sports said that the Xavi generation is expected to dominate football like the "Bakenbauer generation". Both at the club and national team level. Xavis have won the European Cup and have won two Champions League trophys. If they win another Champions League trophy, he will become one of the players with the most top honors in European football history.

"World Sports" expects Barcelona's starting lineup: goalkeeper Valdes; four defenders are Alves, Mascherano, Pique, Puyol; three midfielders are Xavi, Busquets, and Iniesta; three forwards are Pedro, Messi and Villa.

At this time, the outside media are now paying attention to how Manchester United deployed it. Ferguson's Manchester United final uses 442 or 451?

Before this battle, Ferguson spoke cautiously and did not express too much opinions to the outside world. He just briefly recalled the defeat two years ago. Ferguson said: "I think Barcelona has improved compared to 2009, and they are playing more maturely now. When we lost the first goal, the team's attention collapsed instantly. So, this time we must keep our energy on the court and not take it lightly on both offense and defense. This is the key to our victory."

Perhaps it was the unforgettable game two years ago that Ferguson was so cautious. In that game, just ten minutes into the game, Manchester United was hit by Barcelona striker Etoo, and the short Messi headed the ball in the second half. Compared with two years ago, Manchester United has now lost Cristiano Ronaldo, but Rooney's rapid growth has made people hope. Moreover, Manchester United has a star like Gong Zheng who surpasses the Earth level, and Manchester United is also stronger than two years ago.

However, in terms of deployment, Alex Ferguson and the fans who care about Manchester United have been hurt!

In line with the head coach, Manchester United stars did not show themselves too much in front of the media this time. Only Evra, who has always been straightforward, was interviewed. Left-back Evra, who played for 90 minutes two years ago, was full of fighting spirit for revenge by Barcelona.

Evra believes that the 2009 final loss was due to overconfidence and even arrogance: "That feeling was bad, I was very honest. I seemed to be full of confidence in Italy at that time, maybe a little too confident, and I thought I was going to win the championship. Now everyone says that Barcelona is the best team in the world, and I respect this fact. But two years ago everyone said that we would easily beat Barcelona in Rome, and maybe this time everything will be the opposite."

Two years ago in Roma, Manchester United lined up a four-three-three formation, with goalkeeper Van der Sar; the fourth defender was Osheim, Ferdinand, Vidic, and Evra; the third midfielder was Anderson, Carrick, and Giggs; the third forward were Park Ji-sung, Cristiano Ronaldo, and Rooney.

If you want to make excuses for the loss at that time, you can only say that Fleche's suspension made Manchester United's defense lose its barrier. This weekend, Manchester United does not have too many non-combat reductions and can attack after the team. What kind of lineup will Ferguson send?

According to the Sun, which has always been well-informed, Ferguson will choose Manchester United to defeat Schalke in the first leg of the semifinals 3-1 away to have a peak showdown with Barcelona.

After defeating Schalke in the away game, Sir Ferguson said excitedly, "Manchester United has had many outstanding performances in the European arena, but I think this game is undoubtedly one of the best performances in Manchester United's European competition." Undoubtedly, Ferguson was quite satisfied with the lineup of that game.

If the teams are arranged according to the arrangement of that game, Ferguson will line up to 442. The goalkeeper is Van der Sar; the fourth defender is Rafael, Ferdinand, Vidic, and Evra; the fourth midfielder is Valencia, Gurkuf, Fletcher, Nani, and the double strikers are Rooney and Gong Zheng.
