Chapter 1034 The Great Demon King
April 5, Old Trafford.
Sun Wuyun sat calmly on the coaching bench, but actually complained in his heart... Real Madrid lacked Ronaldo, Barcelona lacked Xavi, Arsenal lacked Cesc Fabregas, that's what it looks like!
The reason why a rich family is a rich family is that there is always a unique core player in the team. When they are on the court, the team can do their best. If they are absent from the game, the team will often perform abnormally.
This is a testament to the value of these world-class players, but it also proves how dependent these teams are on them.
Of course, this may not be a bad thing, but it is impossible for these players to play every minute of the game for a season. At this time, the head coach needs to adjust.
But Sun Wu, who is also the head coach, is a bit embarrassed. It is very simple to change this situation, just play on the field by himself, but this is a huge blow to Herrera, who is playing as the core of the team's playmaker.
Moreover, Herrera has performed well in two consecutive knockout rounds, scoring twice against Bayern and scoring a crucial second goal against Liverpool.
Therefore, although Leicester City tied the score again with Vardy's goal in the 72nd minute, Sun Wu did not replace Herrera. Anyway, the Spanish midfielder was still a substitute for the double red game three days later.
Of course, the most important thing is that Sun Wu knew through his mobile phone that in the simultaneous game, the score between Manchester City and Southampton was still 0-0.
In this game, Sun Wu made a big adjustment... Well, I can’t say it’s a big one. Only Milner continued to start, and Herrera, who came off the bench, started the game. The other players were changed, and even Harry Kane got a rest. Falcao finally recovered from a cold and returned.
Leicester City performed very well in the first half of the season, but Mahrez was forcibly taken away by Manchester City during the winter transfer period. After that, the team was unbeaten for 10 rounds and is now ranked eighth. It still needs to grab points to enter the UEFA Cup next season.
Manchester United played well in the first half. Coleman crossed and assisted Falcao to open the scoring. Although Shinji Okazaki missed a corner kick and quickly equalized the score, Mane relied on his personal ability to score the second time before the end of the first half. Out of score.
But in the 72nd minute of the second half, Leicester City made a long pass from the backcourt, Rojo accidentally fell to the top, Vardy single-handedly scored and equalized the score again. seven balls.
The score of 2 to 2 lasted until the end. Although Sun Wu replaced Griezmann, Salah and Falcao twice in the post, Griezmann also received a yellow card for diving. In the end, Manchester United still Unable to knock on the door of Leicester City again, allowing Fox City to score 1 point in the away game.
After Sun Wu and Ranieri shook hands with a smile, they saw Rolf's slightly frustrated face: "What's wrong?"
"In the 4th minute of stoppage time, Kompany scored a header to kill Southampton."
The corner of Sun Wu's mouth twitched. This season, Manchester United's lore at the last moment rarely appeared, but Manchester City has repeatedly staged this scene. De Bruyne, Sterling, and Sane have all scored winning goals in stoppage time. Now it's Kompany's turn.
Guardiola is really tenacious enough to not admit defeat!
Manchester United failed to win Leicester City, and Manchester City narrowly beat Southampton. These two games have revived the suspense of the Premier League title this season.
Although Manchester United still has an advantage, some media believe that under the leadership of Best, this Manchester United team is likely to collapse at the last minute. The Champions League semi-finals were eliminated by Liverpool, the league title was snatched away by neighbors, and the FA Cup?Pochettino is the one who is most familiar with Manchester United.
Two days later, Manchester City finished a make-up match. This time there was no lore. The goals of Jesus, Sterling and De Bruyne allowed Blue Moon to easily defeat Norwich and score 3 points.
Now Manchester City is only 5 points behind Manchester United. In a short period of time, Manchester United's 10-point lead quickly disappeared. 5 points is not an exaggerated gap.
Moreover, Manchester City's goal difference has also caught up now, with a goal difference of 71 and only 3 behind Manchester United.
With three rounds left, Manchester City's opponents are Swansea, Watford and Crystal Palace, while Manchester United's opponents are Norwich, Tottenham and Bournemouth.
Manchester United has no advantage at all. If they lose to Tottenham, it is possible for Manchester City to complete a super reversal at the last moment.
Facing the tremendous pressure on the team from the media, Woodward rarely appeared on the training ground.
"Well, let's start in the afternoon and adapt to training tomorrow." Sun Wu's expression was quite relaxed, "Mr. Ed, are you afraid that we will become the laughing stock of Leverkusen?"
The assistant next to him hurriedly explained in San Dezi's ear how Leverkusen became the king of Sanya back then...
"Actually, no matter how many championships we can win this season..." Sun Wu pointed to the players who are training, "Manchester United's rise is inevitable, and I chose you, Mr. Ed... Facts have proved that this choice is correct. "
San Dezi couldn't help showing a smile at the corner of his mouth, and pretended to give way: "No, no, it's Mauricio and you who created everything."
"Mauricio..." Sun Wu twitched his lips, "There are two more Tottenham games, I hope they won't become an obstacle."
Liverpool has locked No.3 in advance, and Tottenham is now competing with Arsenal and Chelsea for the last Champions League qualification. In the make-up match between Manchester United and Tottenham, it is estimated that Pochettino will do his best.
After chatting with San Dezi for a while, Sun Wu sent him out of the training ground. When he parted, he said with a smile: "Mr. Aide...can you announce the amount of prize money for the Triple Crown the day after tomorrow?"
San Dezi froze for a moment before nodding, the day after tomorrow will be the double red meeting.
Walking back to the training ground, Mike Phelan asked in a low voice, "Are you still insisting on attacking?"
"Mike, sometimes it takes a little risk." Sun Wu stared at the ongoing confrontation training on the field, "Of course, taking risks often means courage, and often times a little luck."
"luck……"
"In the more than [-] years of modern football, there have only been six triple crowns. Don't you need a bit of luck?" Sun Wu clapped his hands suddenly and shouted: "Well done, Anthony, that's it!"
Griezmann, who just sent a wonderful oblique plug from the outside of his instep to assist Mane to score, raised his hand with a smile. In the game the day after tomorrow, he will be the most critical piece.
After lunch, the Manchester United team set off for Liverpool. The two cities are very close, only 55 kilometers away, and the bus is just right.
Sun Wu was sitting at the front of the bus, swiping his phone boredly, when suddenly he saw someone saying so on Sina Weibo in China.
"It is said that Sun Wu is the big devil in football, and now the big devil is finally broken..."
Sun Wu thought for a while and left a message below, "Since I am the big devil, then you should know that the other big devil won 7 games in 4 games. You will see how the big devil completes the counterattack the day after tomorrow."
