Vol 4 Chapter 687: The hand of God

Between the thirteenth and fourteenth rounds of the Premier League, FIFA arranged a World Cup qualifier. The internationals of all continents must rush back to participate in the game, and the club cannot refuse. Fiction.

The Chinese team wants to play Bahrain away, which is also a more important game in the top ten, so it is also a foreign player.

Since 2005, FIFA has adjusted the World Cup qualifier format. Basically, it is a mode of recruiting and playing, and leaving after training. There is no time for training before, which will cause a certain impact on the combat effectiveness of the national team. Impact, but it can greatly reduce the consumption and pressure of the cross-country international.

For example, Yang Yang and other Chinese internationals can fly directly from Europe to the Middle East this time. After gathering with the team, they play Bahrain. After playing, they fly directly from the Middle East to Europe and return to their respective teams. The process is a bit like playing an Israel etc. The Champions League away game in the Middle East is still very expensive, but at least it is much less than before.

For Bahrain, Yang Yang and the internationals are not unfamiliar. In the past few years, they have played with this team a few times. This time, because the internationals have traveled a long distance to go away, it is also very difficult to play.

But in the end, Yang Yang scored a goal, helping the Chinese team beat Bahrain one-on-one.

When Yang Yang returned to Europe from the Middle East, he immediately ushered in the 14th round of the Premier League.

…………

Affected by the mid-week national team game, all strong teams played very badly in this round.

Chelsea drew Newcastle home to zero.

Manchester United drew 0-0 with Aston Villa.

Arsenal lost to Manchester City 3-0 away.

The three strong teams all encountered setbacks in the same round, even if they lost or even lost points.

Among them, Arsenal's away defeat to Manchester City was the most eye-popping. No one thought that the Gunners would have lost so miserably. It can be seen that Wenger's team has really had serious problems.

Manchester United ’s failure to win Aston Villa is also surprising, because the Red Devils ’performance against Aston Villa was quite good. Unexpectedly, this time they failed to win, and the game was very dull.

In contrast, Liverpool's situation is much better than the other three strong teams.

It is also affected by the national team game, and the players are also running back and forth, but Liverpool has more European players, and the injury situation is very well controlled this season. So far, the personnel are relatively neat and the platoon selection is more.

For example, in this game against Fulham, Benitez excluded Mascherano who returned to South America to participate in the national team game, and excluded Yang Yang and Gerrard who played the whole game. He and Xavi Alonso also refrigerated and put them on the bench.

The other three teams not only play the 14th round of the Premier League on weekends, but also play a Champions League in the middle of the week, but Liverpool are a lot easier, because after the UEFA Champions League four-game winning streak, the team has already qualified early, and there is almost no pressure. No problem.

In this case, Liverpool can focus on the league and put the best players in form and fitness into the game against Fulham.

Even so, Liverpool still encountered Fulham's tenacious sniper in the game.

The team had the advantage in the whole game, and even used the home field. In the first 20 minutes, Fulham could not even shoot a shot, but there was still no way to break Fulham's goal. .

Until the 75th minute of the second half, Yang Yang came off the bench. Eight minutes later, after coordination with Aurelio on the left, Aurelio sent a ball behind the ball. Yang Yang quickly inserted into the penalty area and formed a single pole after the ball was stopped. A skilled pendulum passed by, swaying Fulham goalkeeper Schwarzer, and hit the empty goal.

One to zero!

Liverpool finally defeated Fulham one by one by virtue of Yang Yang's goal.

...

The score is not big, but the significance is extremely obvious.

With Chelsea and Manchester United both having a draw and Arsenal's fiasco away, Liverpool were able to stand out and beat their opponents in the dilemma by scoring three points, enough for the Reds to widen the point gap again.

Liverpool's lead was once narrowed due to their previous loss to Tottenham, and after this expansion, Liverpool led Chelsea by two points by up to six points, which is more than Manchester United by third place. Eleven points.

As for Arsenal, they have only scored 23 points, which is as much as 19 points behind Liverpool.

Head coach Wenger said publicly in an interview with the media after the game that the Gunners have withdrawn from the championship and the goal is to keep the top four, and he believes that Liverpool is the team with the most hope of winning the championship, but it must be careful of Ferguson's Manchester United.

"Manchester United is best at the winter break and the second half, Liverpool must overcome their stubborn illness in the past few seasons."

Wenger also highlighted Yang Yang. He believes that Yang Yang can overcome the challenges of the winter break in the Premier League, which is crucial for Liverpool to win the championship. More importantly ...

"If he wants to conquer the Premier League, then he must have a better performance at Christmas and winter break."

...

In an interview with the media, Yang Yang also agreed with Wenger's statement.

"There is no doubt that Christmas in the Premier League is the most challenging schedule. In the past two years, I have not been able to perform well in this period of time, but I feel that I am ready for this year."

Benitez also expressed confidence in Yang Yang, and even revealed that in order to better prepare for the Christmas schedule, Yang Yang not only changed his training during the summer preparations, but also constantly adjusted training programs midway through the season.

"He is the most professional ethical player I have ever worked with. I never need to worry about whether he will do his best or discipline himself, because he is always full of hunger and desire to win, and I am full of confidence in him."

After playing Fulham, the Champions League ushered in the middle of the week.

Liverpool faced Marseille at home, Benitez adjusted the team, and finally by virtue of the goal of Xavi Alonso assisting Gerrard in the 23rd minute, victory over the Ligue 1 powerhouse.

With five consecutive wins in the group stage, Liverpool are still quite dominant in the Champions League.

...

On the weekend, the fifteenth round of the Premier League.

This is another difficult game.

Manchester United had just fought Villarreal 0-0 away in the middle of the week. The two teams were fighting for the first place in the group, and they were flushed, but the Red Devils never won Pellegrini's team.

The two teams currently have the same points, but Manchester United is leading by a goal difference, but for the Red Devils, it is indeed quite uninsured. Once ranked second in the group, it will be extremely unfavorable for Manchester United's Champions League trend.

The two consecutive games failed to score goals, Manchester United's offensive ability has also been questioned, especially Cristiano Ronaldo's state has become very unstable.

He can score twice in two consecutive games, but when the team needs him, he can not score consecutive goals, which is very bad, so after returning to the Premier League, the 15th round away Manchester City, Manchester At the time of the Derby War, the Portuguese's emotions finally couldn't hold up.

On the one hand, Yang Yang's situation has been broken since the start of the season, and on the other hand, he is in a poor state. Especially in this Manchester Derby, Manchester United has an overwhelming advantage, completely suppressing Manchester City.

In the 42nd minute of the first half, Carrick shot a long shot and was saved by goalkeeper Johart. Rooney picked up a missed close-up shot and broke the deadlock on the field.

After changing sides in the second half, Cristiano Ronaldo played more and more irritably. In less than ten minutes, he first received a yellow card for a foul on Wright Phillips, and then handball fouled for a corner kick. Turned red and sent off with a red card, causing Manchester United to fight for one less player in the next half hour.

In the end, Manchester United beat Manchester City one-on-one.

However, after the game, Ronaldinho ’s red card caused huge controversy. Most British media believe that the Portuguese are still very immature. Whether it is emotional control or concentration during the game, they are unable to It is reassuring to want to rely on this performance to compete with Yang Yang for the European Golden Globe and World Footballer, which is undoubtedly very difficult.

Many British tabloids even teased that this was the hand of God who played the smashed version.

...

In this round of highlights, Chelsea ushered in another strong dialogue, but again lost at home, lost one to two to the Gunners Arsenal, this is Chelsea lost to the Premier League three consecutive home games.

Bullying and fear, this has almost become the label of Scolari's team.

The Blues were able to defeat the underdogs, but they suffered a fiasco in three powerful dialogues. This is absolutely fatal.

Liverpool faced West Ham United in this round, opening only six minutes, Yang Yang made a cross from the left, West Ham United guard Irunga fouled the handball, but the referee refused to take a penalty on the grounds that Irunga used his hand to protect himself Face.

Liverpool also accepted the explanation of the head referee after protesting slightly.

Only three minutes later, Yang Yang made a cross after a forced breakthrough on the left, and the result was Ilunga's close-range handball. This time the referee clearly observed the penalty and directly awarded a yellow card penalty.

Yang Yang took the initiative to let him, he did not like penalty kicks, Gerald calmly scored a goal for Liverpool.

This is the only goal in the game.

Liverpool finally defeated West Ham United by a score of zero and scored another three points.

...

After fifteen rounds, Liverpool topped the Premier League standings with 42 points.

Chelsea lost this round, still 33 points, nine points behind Liverpool.

Although temporarily ranked second, everyone actually thinks that the chance of Chelsea winning is very small, because after entering December, it will usher in the traditional advantage period of Manchester United. The Red Devils start from December every year. Forceful.

Moreover, with Chelsea's so bad strong dialogue this season, it is very unlikely to win the championship.

Manchester United won Manchester City, ranking third with 31 points, and the Gunners ranked fourth with 26 points.

...

After playing the fifteenth round of the Premier League, mid-week will usher in the quarter-finals of the League Cup.

But just before the game, on the first day of December, a flight from Paris, France, landed slowly at Manchester Airport.

The new editor-in-chief of the French football magazine Dennis Chaumer and the royal photographer appeared in a hurry in Manchester.
