Just go back and attend Manchester United's last game of 2012 on December 29th.

It has been more than three years since he traveled to this world. Bell has gradually accepted his relatives in this time and space, because he knows very well that it is impossible for him to return to his family in the country in the east.

The old Mr. and Mrs. Bell were very happy that Bell could stay at home for Christmas.

However, shortly after Manchester United tied the score, the city fell again. In the 68th minute, Thornton threw a throw-in. Former Manchester United player Obertan, who had just come on as a substitute, made a forward pass from the left. Cisse scored with his left foot before Evra, helping Newcastle United 3:2 again. lead.

Ferguson was very dissatisfied with the performance on the field and replaced Scholes with Modric to strengthen the offense.

In the 85th minute, Sami Ameobi shot low with his left foot from the edge of the penalty area. The ball hit the left post and bounced out, and was hugged by De Gea.

If they want to win, Manchester United will have to bite the bullet and attack. Fortunately, the Red Devils this season are really lucky and full of magic.

"0-1, 1-1, 1-2, 2-2, 2-3, 3-3, 4-3" At Old Trafford, Manchester United once again explained what it means to be the king of reversal. In the Boxing Day match against Newcastle United, the Red Devils not only equalized three times after falling behind three times but also completed the comeback at the last moment with Hernandez's winning goal. Some people say that the moment Newcastle United took the lead in breaking through the Red Devils, the outcome of the game was already decided.

When Pelchi took the lead in breaking through Manchester United in just 4 minutes, some fans boldly predicted that the Red Devils' reversal mode would start again, because this season Ferguson's disciples have become accustomed to catching up. As the saying goes, there will be no reversal without Manchester United.

In fact, the goal scored by Perch was the third time that Manchester United was scored by the opponent within 5 minutes of the opening game at Old Trafford this season. When the Red Devils faced Fulham at home in the first home game of the season, the goal was scored within 3 minutes of the opening game. After Duff scored, it was Manchester United players who scored three goals in a row to complete the reversal.

Newcastle United almost thought they had a chance to end their embarrassing run of winless away games against Manchester United at the Theater of Dreams dating back to 1972, but Alan Pardew was once again disappointed. As a coach, although Pardew is famous in Europe for ending Manchester United's longest unbeaten record in the five major leagues at the beginning of this year, he has 1 draw and 3 losses in his 4 visits to Old Trafford without a win.

In fact, in the Premier League era, Manchester United has scored 78 points from the Magpies, making it Newcastle's biggest sufferer.

Manchester United's defense is indeed terrible, but the offense, especially the "not doing their job" defenders, can frequently reach the frontcourt and make contributions.

So far, apart from the front four of Bale, Robin van Persie, Hernandez and Rooney, it is Evans and Evra who have scored the most goals.

In addition to the Premier League, Manchester United also had three games in the Champions League where they lost the ball first and then came back to win.

After defeating Newcastle United today, Manchester United continued to maintain a complete victory at home this season. They won 18 games in 19 league rounds at the half-way point and led the Premier League with 54 points. Manchester City, which started the war at the same time, lost to Black Cat Sound in an away game. Manchester United once again leads second-placed Manchester City by 15 points.

And in the past nine years, they have maintained a winning record on Boxing Day. At the same time, Manchester United has achieved 49 unbeaten games in the Premier League at the Dream Theater. The last time they lost was in the 33rd round of the Premier League at home in the 2009-2010 season. To Blues Chelsea. In the subsequent 49 Premier League home games, Manchester United achieved a terrifying record of 47 wins and 2 draws.

In the past two seasons, the Red Devils have a record of 18 wins and 1 draw at Old Trafford!

Some fans commented on Manchester United: "Never give up, endless passion, the king of reversals! Glory to Manchester United!"

After all, there are few teams that are as good at creating ups and downs and suspenseful dramatic games as Manchester United, and finally win the game through reversal time and time again.

Although the game process has repeatedly made people feel on tenterhooks and life-and-death, no one doubts that this season's Premier League championship will belong to Manchester United.

Just after the halfway mark, the Red Devils were already 15 points ahead of their rivals Manchester City, 19 points ahead of Chelsea, and 25 points ahead of Arsenal (one game less). The invincible Red Devils really made all their competitors feel uncomfortable. despair.
