Chapter 412: Rival Real Madrid

The time has entered mid-March unknowingly, and the Premier League has also reached the 28th round.

Manchester United's opponent in this round is West Brom in bloomers, and the game time is at 2 o'clock on Sunday afternoon. Because there is no game in the middle of the week, the next game is the quarter-finals of the FA Cup next Saturday. In addition, West Brom is now ranked ninth in the league and their strength is not weak. Therefore, at Old Trafford, Ferguson Discharged the strongest lineup in his hands. The striker is Rooney and Pea Hernandez's partner, the midfielder is Bell, Sneijder, Scholes and Ashley Young, and the back four is Evra, Ferdinand, Vidic and The combination of Phil Jones and De Gea guarding the goal.

Although West Brom is also the backbone of the Premier League, facing the fiery Manchester United, they did not have much resistance at Old Trafford and lost 0:4.

In this game, Manchester United's advantage over West Brom was crushed in all aspects. In terms of possession rate, Manchester United is 71% ahead of West Brom's 29%. In terms of shooting, Manchester United is 4 times that of their opponents. Manchester United shot 28 shots in the audience, and their opponents only got 7 chances; Manchester United even reached 5 times that of their opponents, occupying an absolute advantage with 15 to 3.

Bell played as stable as ever, with 1 shot and 1 pass in the audience, and instigated another 2 goals, participating in all 4 goals of Manchester United.

However, the MVP of the game is not him, but Rooney, who has become popular again recently. At Old Trafford, Xiaopang scored twice in a single game in 5 days.

………………

With this brace, Rooney has scored 20 league goals this season, which is his second most prolific year after the 2009-2010 season (26 goals). After Ruud van Nistelrooy (4 times) and Bale (2 times) in the history of the Manchester United club, he is the third player who can contribute 20 or 20+ Premier League goals to the team in multiple seasons.

Ronaldo, who has been at Manchester United for 6 seasons, failed to do this. Michael Owen has not even scored more than 20 league goals in a single season in 15 seasons in the Premier League.

Today, Wayne Rooney ranks third in the Premier League scorer list with 20 goals. Of course, the top scorer is Bell, who once again created the Premier League single-season scoring record with 43 goals, and Van Persie ranks second with 25 goals.

The two rank among the top three in the Premier League scorer list, and both scored more than 20 goals, which shows the fierce firepower of Manchester United this season. In fact, after scoring 4 goals in this game, Manchester United has scored 100 league goals this season, 36 more than Manchester City, which has the second most goals.

As for the 100 goals scored in Manchester United, Bell is undoubtedly the biggest contributor. He scored 43 goals and assisted 14 times. He directly made 57 goals alone!

After winning this game, Manchester United's points this season have reached 79 points. Manchester United's lead at the top of the standings has reached 16 points due to Manchester City's unexpected 0:1 away defeat to Swansea Swansea, which started at the same time.

Under such circumstances, even the most optimistic media no longer believe that Manchester City has hope of reversing Manchester United to win the championship.

After all, Ferguson's Manchester United is the team that is best at reversing. Although they also have the experience of being reversed by their opponents, in more cases, it is Manchester United who reversed their opponents.

During his time in charge of Chelsea, Mourinho once said that in order to win the Premier League, they must be at least 10 points ahead of Manchester United before Christmas. Today, Manchester United leads the opponent by 16 points when two-thirds of the schedule is over, and there is no possibility of being reversed anyway. The suspense now is how many rounds Manchester United will win the championship in advance.

However, it is not possible for Manchester United to create a new record of winning the championship in advance. This is mainly because they went too far in this matter last season and won the championship 7 rounds ahead of schedule when they just entered April.

………………

Just as Manchester United methodically prepared for the weekend's FA Cup quarter-finals, the Champions League quarter-finals continued.

In the two games played on Tuesday night, Bayern, which unexpectedly lost an away game in the first leg, entered a runaway mode and slaughtered their opponents 7:0 at home. In the two rounds, they successfully advanced to the quarter-finals of the Champions League with 7:1. In the game, Gomez staged four goals, Robben scored two goals, and Thomas Muller also scored one goal.

The recent state of the Bundesliga South Kings is very crazy. Last weekend, they only slaughtered Hoffenheim 7:1. Three days later, they used the same lineup to stage a bloody slaughter with 7 goals again. The whole of Europe was stunned , I think the current Bayern is more terrible than Manchester United during Christmas last year. After all, Manchester United at that time only scored a few consecutive 6-goal victories, but failed to hit a 7-goal massacre in a row like Bayern is now.

They played against Inter Milan in the 2010 UEFA Champions League final at the same time. Although the Nerazzurri entered the trough and beat the opponent 2:1 and tied the total score to 2:2, they still had fewer away goals. Knocked out of the quarterfinals.

………………

In the other two games a day later, Real Madrid beat CSKA Moscow 4-1 at home to advance 5-2. In the game at Stamford Bridge, Chelsea staged a shocking reversal when they were not optimistic about the whole situation, and accidentally eliminated Naples.

4:1! A great reversal, DiMatteo almost completed an "impossible task". Stamford Bridge on the evening of March 14th became a sea of ​​joy for the Blues. With the goals of Drogba, Terry, Lampard and Ivanovic, Chelsea beat Naples 4:1 and completed the Champions League knockout round. The most difficult reversal after the "Riasso tragedy" in the 2003-2004 season (Deportivo 1:4 away, AC Milan 4:0 at home)!

After the game, Chelsea's interim coach Di Matteo accepted an interview. He called this game a "dream reversal". He said: "It was a fantastic game. Both teams showed their own characteristics, and in the end we achieved a fantastic reversal." Regarding the difficulty of this game, Di Matteo still had lingering fears, "Who We all know that this is a difficult game. In the first leg, we lost 1:3 at the San Paolo Stadium. As long as the opponent scores one goal, we have to score more than three. Troublesome situation. Before the game, we can expect the difficulty of the game, and we need to do a lot in this game to achieve the goal of promotion."

Di Matteo's evaluation of this game is a "victory of will". The Chelsea coach said: "I can't say who is the best today. The whole team performed very well tonight, whether it is old players or newcomers. , They really became a collective, twisted into a rope to fight, and this result allowed the team to play 100% of their combat effectiveness."

After Boas was fired, Di Matteo, who took office temporarily, has won three consecutive victories, including an FA Cup rematch, a league game, and the Champions League second-leg knockout round. Except for the goal, the rest of the games did not concede a goal. A total of 7 goals were scored in 3 games, with an average of 2.3 goals per game and an average of 0.3 goals conceded per game. Although there are only 3 games, Di Matteo has shown out of their own ability.

Di Matteo not only brought Chelsea back to its original level in terms of overall tactics, but more importantly, he was able to bring players together, whether it was the veteran Drogba, Lampard, Terry and others, The rookies Mata, Sturridge, and Ramirez can all use 100% mental state to fight with their opponents bayonet, which is nothing in the Boas era.

………………

With the end of the one-eighth knockout round, all the quarter-finals of this season's Champions League will be produced. From the eight-team roster, it is clear that this season's Champions League continues the hegemony between the Premier League and the Western Premier League. Two teams from each side have advanced, the Premier League's Red Devils and Blues, and the Western Premier League's Real Madrid and Barcelona. The remaining four teams come from four different leagues, the Bundesliga South King Bayern, the Serie A Rossoneri, the Ligue 1 Marseille, and the Cypriot team APOEL that upset Lyon!

Among the eight teams, APOEL is undoubtedly the big gift bag in the eyes of everyone. Facing a quarter-final draw that no longer has the principle of avoidance, everyone hopes to draw this big gift bag.

This also makes the draw for the Champions League quarter-finals at noon on Friday a lot of attention.

The result of the draw was very surprising, because the big gift package in the eyes of everyone, APOEL, was actually drawn by Chelsea. The Chelsea people really demonstrated to the world what it means to be extremely happy. They had all kinds of troubles before, and after firing the former coach Villas-Boas, they suddenly became lucky.

If the big gift bag is taken away, there is no hope for other teams, because the other six teams are not weak, and there will definitely be a strong dialogue among them. After all, these six teams include Mosa Huangren, the most terrifying four in Europe. team, as well as AC Milan, one of the former champions of the Champions League.

The final draw is very interesting, because in the three games, there was a super-strong dialogue between the two teams. Barcelona and AC Milan, the enemies of the group stage, were once again drawn together. They will decide for the second time this season in the Champions League. You live and die; and the two teams that are recognized as the most powerful this season, the Red Devils Manchester United and the Galaxy Fleet Real Madrid, were also drawn together.

What's even more interesting is that because the UEFA Champions League quarter-final draw this season had to distinguish between the upper and lower halves, and as a result, both the Premier League teams and the Western Super League duo were drawn to two different halves.

In other words, in this season's Champions League final, there is likely to be a civil war between the Premier League and the Western Super League!

As far as the media is concerned, the possibility of a civil war in the Western Super League is obviously stronger than a civil war in the Premier League. Although the blue team Chelsea won a big gift package in the knockout round of the quarterfinals, even if they advance smoothly, they are still very likely to encounter the cosmic team Barcelona. In Chelsea's situation, they are more or less fortunate.

Although the Red Devils and Manchester United are strong, Real Madrid is the team most likely to beat them. And once Real Madrid passes the level of Manchester United, the opponent may be Bayern, and the winning rate is still very high.

Therefore, the drama that Platini and UEFA have been looking forward to for a long time may be staged this season.
