Chapter 388 City Derby
In 1970, "King of Manchester United" Dennis Law joined Manchester City after being ruthlessly abandoned by Manchester United. He scored a winning goal for Manchester City in the derby. The goal scored by the heel directly scored Manchester United into the second division, but Dennis Law later recalled that this was his "the most painful goal in his life". Law's evaluation also reflects the relationship between the two teams. Manchester City has always lived in the shadow of Manchester United, and once they join a Manchester team, they will never be able to join another Manchester team with all their heart.
In recent seasons, Manchester City has played in the Premier League from the second division, then dropped to the first division, and finally gambled locally. In the summer of 2002, two European footballers, former head coach of the English national team, Keegan, and then combined the team with the highest salary level in the first division, and finally got the best of their goal.
As Manchester City fans shouted, what they vented was the pain of being suppressed by brothers in the city for many years. The biggest reason for Manchester City's upgrade was naturally Keegan, and Manchester City was able to attract this famous coach a year ago, which also included Keegan's own hatred for Manchester United and Ferguson.
Keegan became famous in Liverpool, which was enough to make him hate Manchester United, but his personal grudge with Ferguson was the reason why Keegan took charge of Maine Road and vowed to surpass Manchester United.
In the 1995-1996 season, the vigorous Keegan trained Newcastle United into an invincible force in England. At that time, he was far ahead in the league and was Manchester United's biggest opponent to win the championship.
Ferguson, who especially likes to challenge his opponents with psychological warfare, stimulates Keegan through various media, saying that if Keegan wants to win the Premier League championship, he "must learn for a few more years", and says that other teams are doing their best when playing Manchester United, and that they are not that desperate to deal with Newcastle United. They have repeatedly emphasized that the league collision between Newcastle United and Manchester United at the end of the season will determine the final ownership of the championship.
Keegan was deeply stimulated by Ferguson and threatened to fight Manchester City to the death at home. She once lost control of her emotions on the live broadcast of BBC Radio 5 and cursed Ferguson. His words repeatedly fooled by the British media were: "...I really hope, I really hope to defeat them..." (I would lovelovetobeatthem).
The off-field battle dispersed the youthful Keegan and Newcastle United's energy. Manchester United gradually caught up in the league and later defeated Newcastle United away.
Five months later, Keegan left the team that he brought to the Premier League from the League One and began his wandering coaching career. Almost all British people believe that Keegan's coaching career was changed by Ferguson. Before 2001, Keegan's position as head coach in England was, because of his previous European Cup defeat and the embarrassment of the World Cup qualifiers, and finally admitted that he was "incompetent". After being embarrassed, Manchester City Chairman Bernstein remembered the past of Keegan's fight with Ferguson and tried his best to win over. Of course, Keegan was willing to compete with the old Lord again, which was the background of his entry into Maine Road.
Keegan's arrival intensified the hostile relationship between Manchester City and Manchester United. The following two seasons of Manchester derby were indeed full of sparks. A month before the Premier League Manchester derby on November 9, 2002, all the Maine Road agents posted a notice: "When Manchester City faces Manchester United's derby on November 9, the stadium does not sell any alcoholic beverages. I hope all spectators will pay attention and do not bring any alcoholic beverages into the field. Violators will be punished."
Blue fans coming and going will stare at this notice a few times, and some will nod, and it seems that no one has objected. This is the last Manchester derby on Maine Road. After this game, only Manchester City will visit Old Trafford in 2002-2003. Manchester City will move to the new stadium in the 2003-2004 season.
Manchester City won 3-1 in this game, which greatly boosted the morale of the army. Ferguson was so angry after the game that he claimed that this was the "most disgusting performance" of Manchester United throughout the season. He increased his efforts to govern the army. After that, Manchester United completed a major reversal over Arsenal in the second half of the league. However, in the second derby at Old Trafford, Manchester City still stubbornly defended a draw 1-1. Sun Jihai played a cameo midfielder in the second half and was one of the heroes of Manchester City's tie.
Last summer, after Jiang Feng took over Manchester United, he not only invested huge amounts of money to rebuild the Old Trafford Stadium, but also introduced a large number of young and powerful players.
Under such circumstances, in the same-city derby held at Old Trafford Stadium in December last year, Manchester United beat the city's mortal enemy with a score of 3:1, which avenged a revenge of Manchester City's failure to win in two matches last year.
However, this was not enough to calm down Ferguson's anger, because last year's away defeat made him so angry that he almost broke his dream of winning the championship.
Although he can no longer avenge at Maine Road Stadium, Ferguson will not give up. In the first city derby battle of the new home court of his archenemy in the city, slaughtering his opponent is definitely the most perfect revenge.
In this league, Ferguson sent a starting lineup of all the elderly.
The so-called old man is the person who has been in Manchester United for at least two years, and is the player who has experienced the shameful defeat last year.
Of course, the goalkeepers are excluded, because the goalkeepers in the team were all washed out last summer, and the starting goalkeeper in this game was still Van der Sar.
On the back line, from right to left are Gary Neville, Ferdinand, Sylvester, and O'Shea.
From right to left, Phil Neville, Scholes, Keane and Giggs are respectively
On the forward line, Van Nie is partnering with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
Although this lineup is not Manchester United's strongest lineup, their hatred for Manchester City is not comparable to that of Ronaldinho and Drogba who only joined Manchester United last year.
In this game, Jiang Feng did not go to watch the game. Firstly, because he had something to return to China, and secondly, he himself had no hatred with Manchester City. Although he is now the boss of Manchester United and a fan of Manchester United. Moreover, at this time, Jiang Feng believed that Manchester City is no longer a team of the same level as Manchester United. Although the hatred of his mortal enemies in the city may cause Manchester City players to burst out huge energy in the game, in the face of absolute strength, Manchester City still finds it difficult to shake Manchester United, let alone in this game, Manchester United also came with the idea of revenge.
In fact, this is the case. Although Manchester United, with the idea of revenge, has made tenacious resistance, it is still difficult to stop Manchester United's pace.
However, in the first half of the game, Manchester City did not let Manchester United score. This situation made Ferguson very dissatisfied, so during the halftime break, the old man drove his hair dryer in the locker room and scolded the players on the court. At the same time, before the second half, Ferguson made two substitution decisions, replacing Fanny and Phil Neville, who performed poorly in the first half, and replaced Drogba and Ronaldo.
Ferguson's substitution played an immediate role. Five minutes after the second half, Ronaldo broke through and assisted Drogba to knock on Manchester City's door.
After opening the situation, Manchester United destroyed Manchester City's resistance with a tyranny. In the end, they defeated their mortal enemies 3-0 away. This made Manchester City coach Keegan and Manchester City players who were shouting for revenge before the start of the game were injured.
What hurt Manchester City even more was that after the game, Cristiano Ronaldo, who had a substitute on the bench in this game, even sprinkled a handful of salt on their wounds.
After the game, a reporter asked Ronaldo what he thought about Manchester City’s revenge before the game. Ronaldo said disdainfully: "I welcome them to continue to come to us for revenge, but I hope they will explain before the game that revenge they want to avenge."
Ronaldo's words have been sought after by all Manchester United players and fans, and have also made Ronaldo's position in the minds of Manchester United fans continue to soar.
However, Manchester City fans gritted their teeth at Ronaldo's speech. This is too bullying. It is unbearable that you have to humiliate others so much if you win!
Of course, Jiang Feng didn't know that he was fulfilling his dream at this time.
"Ah..." Jiang Feng flipped over, fell off the cliff, and plunged into the deep pool below the cliff.
"Hurry and save people..." There were a lot of people beside me shouting nervously.
After Jiang Feng sank into the water, he felt that the heavy clothes on his body became extremely heavy after being soaked in the pool water. He took a lot of effort to break free. Then, according to the experience taught by his swimming guidance, he vomited two bubbles and slowly floated up from the deep water.
"Here, here!" Several people rushed over in speedboats, threw a rope cover to Jiang Feng, and pulled him to the speedboat. The two of them quickly wiped his body with dry towels, and took his clothes one by one and helped him put them on.
"Okay! A very good part!" The director who was sitting under the parasol stood up and said with great appreciation.
This is the second part of the film "Myth" that was filmed.
Originally, Jiang Feng planned to shoot three movies in "Myth", especially when the first movie had already achieved great success, so when the first movie was competing for the Oscars, the second movie of "Myth" had already begun filming.
Today's scene is a scene where the protagonist falls from a cliff. However, because the height of the upper and lower reaches exceeds twenty meters, the actors never dare to try it. Therefore, Jiang Feng, who came to visit the set, volunteered to take on this job, bringing the audience the most real feelings with the greatest courage, and at the same time fulfilling his dream of being an actor for two lives.
Thanks to Jiang Feng's current deep skills, if it were an ordinary person, he would have fallen and fainted. Even so, he was also thrown into a dizzy and drank two sips of water.
Fortunately, the filming location chosen by the crew is of excellent quality and has no pollution. It feels sweet and sweet to drink it. It is not bad. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to subscribe to (this site) and give me rewards. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
