Looking back on the century-old history of Arsenal and Manchester United, Arsenal's most painful defeat before was on February 25, 2001. York was the hero of Manchester United in that game. At that time, the Trinidad striker had lost his main position, but in this game he spent 22 minutes to complete a hat-trick. With the scores of Keane and Solskjaer, Arsenal was 1:5 behind in the first half. In the second half, Sheringham threw a handful of salt on the professor's wound. In the end, Manchester United beat Arsenal 6:1. But objectively speaking, Manchester United and Arsenal were equal in strength at that time, and the score of 1:6 was only a chance to play. Now Arsenal is no longer on the same level as Manchester United. This time he was beaten 8:2, and the strength gap is more.

After this shameful failure, the Gunners set many records. Arsenal joined the England top league in 1919, and since then, Arsenal has never scored 8 goals by his opponent in a game. In the past 96 years, Arsenal's biggest score loss in the top league was 0:7, a total of 3 times, namely: 0:7 lost to West Bromwich on the 14th away game; 0:7 lost to Newcastle on the 3rd English League One; 0:7 lost to West Ham United on the 7th English League One away game on the 7th English League One. This time, the 8 goals conceded was the most since Arsenal advanced to the top league.

If we investigate it carefully, Arsenal's last game of 8 goals was lost to Loughborough on the 12th of the month, losing 0:8 to Loughborough. China was still in the Guangxu period. Arsenal's crushing defeat tied the record for 115 years. This defeat was also Wenger's worst loss since taking over Arsenal. At the same time, it was Wenger's worst start since joining Arsenal.

When facing the result of a 2-8 defeat to Manchester United, Wenger emphasized at the post-match press conference that although he was under heavy pressure, he had never considered resigning.

Arsenal played against Manchester United at home. The originally even game was a match that was transferred and injured, which made the balance of victory clearly tilted towards Manchester United before the game.

They gave an epic 8-2 score, setting the largest score difference in the history of the two sides' confrontation. When Manchester United fans celebrated as the Chiefs celebrated, many people turned their attention to Arsenal coach Wenger, and some media even doubted whether the elegant Frenchman would announce his resignation.

"It's a terrible day for each of us. But in fact, this is the embodiment of the team's strength. The opponent uses his strength to the extreme, and our weaknesses are most directly exposed. When you get 8 goals, you will definitely feel extremely humiliated. We completely collapsed in the second half, and I felt the feeling of being powerless to turn the world around, which made me feel very embarrassed."

Many players were suspended due to injuries or red cards, and the young players were obviously lacking in experience. They led such a team to compete and suffered such a crushing defeat. Everyone focused on the topic of "resignation". Wenger also responded positively. He said: "I have never thought about resigning, nor even thinking about it. I will not consider this issue, I will only try to think about solutions. I believe that in the next game, we will have a breakthrough."

How to solve this problem nowadays, there is a serious shortage of Arsenal soldiers? Wenger continued: "I know that in England, if you want to change the game, signings are always the best solution. We have at least 8 players who can't play, so we have to consider introducing some players to make up for it anyway."

Ferguson expressed his support for Wenger at the first time after the game: "I think it is unfair to criticize Wenger now. Look at the efforts he has put in Arsenal, the football philosophy he has instilled in Arsenal, and the exciting players he has brought to Arsenal."

Arsenal sold key players this summer, causing the team's strength to decline seriously, but Ferguson saw the other side of the matter: "Winger's transfer is also excellent. You have to see how much money is already in Arsenal's safe now. People often forget about this. The world is cynical today. When you lose some games, those who like to blame will pop up."

But Ferguson was still surprised by Manchester United's big victory: "I'm surprised because when you play against Arsenal, you always think that this is a tough showdown. I don't know if you think Arsenal is weaker now, but we still do our job. Despite this, Arsenal has created some opportunities because they are still outstanding in the frontcourt."

Dong Fangzhuo scored a hat-trick in this game and was scoring the second goal in the Premier League to Scheer Spurs. Regarding the game, Dong Fangzhuo admitted that it was incredible: "Our performance today is really incredible. Our performance deserves the score of 8:2. Regardless of whether Arsenal is the strongest lineup or not, we will go all out to score every time. They lack some players, but this will not take us lightly."

Then Dong Fangzhuo talked about Chelsea and Manchester City.

"Obviously, a big win will put pressure on both Manchester City and Chelsea. But we won't pay attention to their performance, because we will keep winning until the end of the season."

He said he would not pay attention, but in fact, on the way back to Manchester, the whole Manchester United team was watching the game with their mobile phones in their arms.

When we returned to Manchester, there was no surprise, and Chelsea and Manchester City both won.

There was no change in the standings and no one fell behind. It seemed that the league could not be won until the last round.

Next, Manchester United will focus on the Champions League. They will face Barcelona at home in the first leg of the semi-finals.

This is a more difficult game. Barcelona also played a terrifying score at home this weekend.

Sweep Zaragoza 6:0.

Although the opponent is not very strong, Barcelona also showed strong dominance. The ball possession rate of the whole game was as high as 75%, 25 shots and 15 hits to the goal frame. If the Zaragoza goalkeeper had not performed bravely, he would have conceded more goals. Zaragoza had only one shot in the whole game.

msn scored twice in the game, and Messi, Suarez and Neymar were all in great shape.

The Times said bluntly: The Champions League semi-final next week will be a match with Mars hitting the Earth. The confrontation between Barcelona and Manchester United will be the most passionate game of the season.
