Chapter 388: Derby in the same city
In 1970, the "King of Manchester United" Denis . Law joined Manchester City after being ruthlessly abandoned by Manchester United and scored the winning goal for Manchester City in the derby, a goal scored with this backheel that directly put Manchester United in the second division. Law, who later recalled, was "the most painful goal of his life". Law's evaluation also reflects the relationship between the two teams. Manchester City have always lived in the shadow of Manchester United, and once they have joined one Manchester team, they will never be able to fully join another Manchester team.
In recent seasons, Manchester City have moved from the Second Division to the Premier League, then relegated to League One, and finally gambled at all costs, bringing in two-time European Footballer of the Year and former England national team manager Keegan in the summer of 2002, and then combining the team with the highest salary level in League One, and finally getting promoted.
In the screams of Manchester City fans, they vented the pain that had been suppressed by their city brothers for many years. The biggest reason for Manchester City's promotion is naturally Keegan, and Manchester City was able to attract this famous coach a year ago, which also includes Keegan's hatred for Manchester United and Ferguson.
Keegan's fame with Liverpool was enough to make him hate Manchester United, but his feud with Alex Ferguson was the reason why Keegan took Maine Road and vowed to surpass Manchester United.
In the 1995-1996 season, the fierce Keegan developed Newcastle United into an invincible force in England, leading the league at the time and being Manchester United's biggest rivals for the title.
Ferguson, who especially likes to provoke opponents with psychological warfare, stimulates Keegan through various media, Keegan "must learn for a few more years" if he wants to win the Premier League title, other teams play Manchester United with all their might, and they are not so desperate against Newcastle United, and repeatedly emphasize that Newcastle United's league collision with Manchester United at the end of the season will determine the final ownership of the championship.
Keegan was deeply stimulated by Ferguson, threatening to fight Manchester City at home, and once lost control of his emotions on the BBC Radio 5 live broadcast, scolding Ferguson, his words that were repeatedly fooled by the British media were: "...... I really hope, really hope to beat them...... "IwouldLoveLoveToBeatthem."
The off-pitch battle distracted the young Keegan and Newcastle United, who instead caught up in the league and later beat Newcastle United on the road.
Five months later, Keegan left the side he had single-handedly brought from League One to the Premier League and began his wandering coaching career. Almost all of the British believe that Keegan's coaching career was changed by Alex Ferguson. Before 2001, Keegan was the head coach of the England team, because of the previous European Cup fiasco and the embarrassment of the World Cup qualifiers, and finally admitted that he was "incompetent", and after being humiliated, the then Manchester City chairman Bernstein remembered the past of Keegan and Ferguson's fighting style and tried his best to win him over. Keegan was certainly willing to fight the old man again, and this was the background to his entry into Maine Road.
Keegan's arrival intensified the hostile relationship between Manchester City and Manchester United, and the Manchester derby in the following two seasons really sparked sparks. A month before the Manchester derby in the English Premier League on 9 November 2002, a notice was posted on all seats on Maine Road: "In the derby between Manchester City and Manchester United on 9 November, no alcoholic beverages will be sold in the stadium. ”
The blue fans who came and went would stare at the sign a few times, and some would nod their heads, and it seemed that no one objected. This was the last Manchester derby for Maine Road, and after this game, only Manchester City were left to visit Old Trafford in 2002-2003 and move into a new stadium in 2003-2004.
Manchester City's 3-1 win was a huge boost to the morale of the army, and Ferguson was angry after the game, claiming that it was the "most disgusting performance" of the whole season, and he stepped up his efforts to control the army, after which United completed a big comeback to catch up with Arsenal in the second half of the league. However, in the second derby at Old Trafford, Manchester City stubbornly held a draw of 1-1 on the 1st, and Sun Jihai made a cameo in the second half and was one of the heroes of Manchester City's equalization.
After Jiang Feng took charge of Manchester United in the summer of last year, he not only invested heavily in the renovation of Old Trafford, but also introduced a large number of young and powerful players.
Against this backdrop, Manchester United defeated their rivals 3-1 in the City Derby at Old Trafford last December, avenging last year's winless two-game matches.
However, it was not enough to calm the anger in Ferguson's heart, because last year's defeat on the road made him so angry that it almost shattered his dream of winning the title.
While he can't get revenge at Maine Road anymore, Ferguson won't give up either. In the first city derby match in the new home of the rival, it is definitely the perfect revenge to beat the opponent.
In this league game, Ferguson fielded an all-old starting line-up.
The so-called veteran is a player who has been in the Manchester United team for at least two years, and is also a player who experienced a humiliating defeat last year.
Of course, the goalkeepers are excepted, because all the goalkeepers in last year's squad have been cleaned last summer, and the goalkeeper in this game is still Van der Sar.
On the back line, from the right to the left is Gary. Neville, Ferdinand, Sylvester, O'Shea.
The midfielder from the right to the left is Phil. Neville, Paul Scholes, Keane and Guggs up front, with Ruud van Nistelrooy partnering Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
This lineup, although it is not Manchester United's strongest lineup, but their hatred for Manchester City is not comparable to players like Ronaldinho and Drogba who only joined Manchester United last year.
In this game, Jiang Feng did not go to the scene to watch the game, firstly because he had something to return to China, and secondly, he did not have any hatred with Manchester City, although now he is the owner of Manchester United and a fan of Manchester United. Moreover, at this time, Jiang Feng believes that Manchester City is no longer a team of the same level as Manchester United. Although, the hatred of the city's sworn enemies may make Manchester City's players burst out with huge energy in the game, but in the face of absolute strength, Manchester City is still difficult to shake Manchester United, let alone this game, Manchester United also came with the idea of revenge.
In fact, Manchester United, who have a desire for revenge, although Manchester City has also put up stubborn resistance, it is still difficult to stop Manchester United.
However, in the first half of the game, Manchester City did not allow Manchester United to score. This situation made Ferguson very dissatisfied, so at halftime, the old man turned on his hair dryer in the dressing room and scolded the players on the pitch. Meanwhile, before the second half, Ferguson made two substitution decisions, replacing Ruud van Nistelrooy and Phil, who had been poor in the first half. Neville, replaced by Drogba and Cristiano Ronaldo.
Ferguson's substitution made an immediate difference, and five minutes into the second half, Cristiano Ronaldo's breaking cross set up Drogba to knock on City's door.
After opening the game, Manchester United destroyed City's resistance with devastating force, and in the end, they won 3-0 away from their local rivals. This hurt Manchester City manager Keegan and the Manchester City players, who were shouting for revenge before the game.
What made Manchester City even more injured was that after the game, Cristiano, who came on as a substitute in this game and performed well. Ronaldo even sprinkled a handful of salt on their white spoon wounds.
After the game, a reporter asked Ronaldo what he thought of Manchester City's pre-match revenge method, and Ronaldo said disdainfully: "I welcome them to continue to come to us for revenge, but I hope that before the game they will clearly avenge that revenge." ”
Ronaldo's words have won the popularity of all Manchester United players and fans, and Ronaldo's status in the hearts of Manchester United fans has continued to soar.
However, Manchester City fans are gritting their teeth at Ronaldo's statement, this is too bullying, you have to be so humiliated if you win, is it unbearable!
Of course, these Jiang Feng didn't know that at this time he was fulfilling one of his dreams.
"o Ah ......" Jiang Feng flipped over, fell off the cliff, and plunged headlong into the deep pool below the cliff.
"Hurry up...... there was a lot of nervous shouting next to him.
After Jiang Feng sank into the water, he felt that the heavy clothes on his body had become extremely heavy after being soaked in the pool water, and it took him a lot of effort to break free, and then according to the experience taught by the swimming guide, he spit out two bubbles and slowly floated up from the deep water.
"It's here, it's here!" Several people rushed over in the speedboat, threw a rope noose at Jiang Feng, and pulled him on the top of the speedboat, two of them quickly wiped his body with a thousand towels, and one of them took his clothes and helped him put them on.
"Good! Very good part! The director, who was sitting under the parasol, stood up and said with great appreciation.
This is the second film "Myth" that was filmed.
Originally, Jiang Feng planned to shoot three "Myth" movies, especially under the premise that the first part had already achieved great success, so when the first part of "Mythology" was competing for the Oscar award, the second part of "Mythology" had already begun filming.
This scene is a scene of the protagonist falling from a cliff, but because the height is more than 20 meters, the actor never dares to try, so Jiang Feng, who came to visit the class, volunteered to take over the job, bringing the audience the most real feeling with the greatest courage, and at the same time fulfilling his dream of being an actor for two lifetimes.
Thanks to Jiang Feng's deep foundation now, if it were a general entry, it was estimated that he would have fainted. Rao is like this, he was also thrown into a meat and eight meat, and drank two sips of water.
Fortunately, the filming location chosen by the crew has excellent water quality and is not polluted, and it is also a feeling of being sweet to the bones when you drink it, which is not bad. (To be continued)
