Chapter 649: Nima, Why Me? (15,000 completed)
The final whistle at the Emirates Stadium and the title belongs to Manchester United.
Jose Mourinho and his players walked to the Blues fan stand to applaud them. The people in the blue jerseys responded with applause, and there seemed to be no frustration and loss in sight here.
Jose Mourinho's first action after the game was to walk into the field, point to the stands of the visiting fans and beckon the players to come over for a curtain call. He then made a frequent gesture to the Chelsea fans on the sidelines, raising his right hand upwards to signal his head to be held high, and his mouth shouting "UP!" UP! ”。 Mourinho is telling fans to keep their heads up at this moment because next season will be a new start.
In the bitter post-match press conference, Mourinho still spoke eloquently:
'I used to feel that it was still possible to win the title,' Mourinho revealed that he did not give up in the game, "if we win today and then beat Manchester United on Wednesday, the gap will be two points and anything can happen in the final round." It didn't work out, but I'm still proud of the team. ”
'I've always known that one day I'm probably not going to be a champion, but when it happens, I don't want to blame myself or the players or anyone else. A year ago at Stamford Bridge, Jose Mourinho threw the Premier League winner's medal in the stands, and a year later, he has lost taste while still giving hope for the future.
"I must say maybe today I'm more proud than when I was the champion, my players are heroes, they've been fighting 'everything' all season and they've done a fantastic job. This season has been magical. ”
After attacking on four fronts in sync to the final stage, and now losing the possibility of two of the most important competitions, Chelsea did everything they could to finally fall in front of a great goal, but Mourinho's pride is not empty words, the moment of losing the title is worth remembering and will be the motivation for the year ahead, the Portuguese says he is ready for the new season in July, and it is clear that his goal is to pull United off the title.
In the end, Chelsea drew 1-1 away at Arsenal. Because Manchester United is still seven points ahead of Chelsea, they won the title two rounds early; It was United's second league title since the 02/03 season, their ninth Premier League title in 15 years and the 16th English top-flight title.
Chelsea's draw away to Arsenal meant the biggest suspense of the Premier League season was finally solved: Manchester United lifted the 06-07 title two rounds ahead of schedule. Even though it was Sunday, the sports staff of the British media were not sleeping, and the sports channels of the major British websites or the sports websites of professional newspapers were busy adding news.
The headline in The Times read, "Chelsea surrender their hands to Manchester United", and to match the headline, Mourinho was pictured with his hands raised in the air. The article states: "As much as Chelsea kept Manchester United nervous to the end, they were unable to stop Alex Ferguson's men from replacing them as the king of English football. ”
The Daily Telegraph's headline is succinct and to the point, with the headline on the homepage of the site being "Manchester United champions" and the sports channel being a slightly more detailed headline being "Chelsea flat, Manchester United champions." The brief report on the game was devoted to Ferguson's post-match talk, and he said he had watched his grandson's game footage before coming to watch the game, and he happened to see footage of Chelsea attacking frantically with less: "My grandson's team won the championship and we won ours!" I watched the last 15 minutes at the Emirates Stadium and it made me very uneasy, and my heart went to my throat that Chelsea were playing well. ”
The front page of The Sun was accompanied by a large photo of Alex Ferguson raising his hands in cheers, with the league trophy by his side, which was obviously a specially made photo, and it is not a matter of time to present the trophy. The photo of Ferguson jumping up and hugging Queiroz and cheering is the footage of Manchester City at the end of the game.
The Guardian quoted an article from the British News Agency with the headline "Chelsea hope to be finished by Gunners", which began: "Ten Chelsea fought to the end, but their faint flame of title hope was finally extinguished at the Emirates Stadium, and now Manchester United's Premier League party is in full swing." ”
The online channels of traditional media are active, and the online media cannot be left behind, and the news of several major sports websites has been overwhelming, with Sky Sports saying that this is Manchester United's first league title in four years, and a large number of fans have gathered at Old Trafford, and the official celebration is about to begin. "Team Talk" said that "the Blues drew and Manchester United won the title", and the trophy returned to Old Trafford.
"We are the champions," the Manchester Evening News was the first to report......
After 36 games, United won the Premier League title ahead of schedule and lifted the trophy for the first time since 2002/03. Since the inception of the Premier League in 1992/93, Manchester United have reigned supreme and their 15-year record is unmatched.
It was United's ninth Premier League title in 15 years, a significant lead over any other team in terms of overall appearance, with second-placed Arsenal winning three titles, Chelsea having topped the table twice in the last two years, and Blackburn Rovers taking a slice of the pie in the 94-95 season.
Manchester United have scored 95 goals in the first 36 games of the season, the most of any team in the Premier League, and in the 99-00 season, the Reds scored 97 goals in 38 Premier League games, a figure of almost 100 goals that looks set to be broken this year, after all, the Reds have two games left to play this year.

That day, in that BishopBlaize bar, many people drank directly, and Dong Fangzhuo couldn't stop it if he wanted to, but Dong Fangzhuo sat there soberly, taking care of his crazy teammates.
Although there are still two league games, there is also an FA Cup and an all-important Champions League final.
But as Rooney yelled before he got drunk - fuck it.
Of course, the consequences are severe.
The next day, Ferguson woke up early, intending to cancel everyone's vacation and tell everyone to report back to the Carrington base.
Ferguson was worried that if he didn't let these guys return to training, they might not even be able to drink for three days and three nights.
The decisive match against Chelsea next weekend was supposed to be the most important game, but now because Chelsea lost the title early, it has become chicken ribs.
Ferguson wasn't really worried about his disciple losing his form, but he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to control it!
But to Ferguson's surprise, on Monday morning, Ferguson hurried to the Carrington training base only to find that the entire Manchester United staff were waiting for him at the door, and to the old man's surprise, the media reporters who had always been difficult to get along with him also applauded him.
On the training ground, all the players, including Patrice Evra on crutches, arrived. After waking up in the bar yesterday afternoon, he pulled Rooney, Scholes, Ferdinand and other teammates to their favourite bar to continue to indulge in drinks, spending a total of £8,500 on the drink, and did not leave until 4:30 a.m. on Monday morning, but only a few hours later, they showed up at the Carrington training base to pay their highest respects.
Dong Fangzhuo stood in the first position, smiling and looking at Ferguson.
Ferguson also looked at him carefully, then took a step towards him, and then put his face close to Dong Fangzhuo's body.
"You didn't drink it?"
"Had a drink."
“……”
With a snap, Ronaldo next to Dong Fangzhuo suddenly fell......
"Fake, that's a bad drink." Ferguson also suddenly laughed and cursed.
"Just today, just one day, it doesn't matter how crazy you are, the event ends at 0:00 tonight."
He raised his right index finger.
"Oye......"
"The club has prepared enough champagne for you, now, let's celebrate! Ryan, aren't you going to say something? This is your 9th league title. ”
Ferguson abruptly named Ryan Giggs.
Ryan Giggs didn't drink either, and Dong Fangzhuo wasn't the only one.
As Ferguson spoke, the staff had already placed nine huge bottles of champagne on the training ground.
The 33-year-old did win his ninth league title with Manchester United, breaking the record of eight titles held by Liverpool legends Neal and Alan Hansen.
Giggs walked up to the huge champagne and touched his head, not knowing what to say, as young as he had been in his youth.
"Maybe, I still want to follow you to win the 10th, 11th, 12th championship? The 9th championship seems to be just as exciting as the 1st. ”
Then he pulled out his phone and took a picture in front of the champagne......
'I'm so proud of him, it's Scholes and Gary Neville who are aiming for him now, and of course you should be looking for that, it's a great goal! But I may not be able to see it in my lifetime. ”
Ferguson muttered softly, and Dong Fangzhuo, who was speechless, stood beside him.
"Why haven't you been excited?"
"Dong?"
"I'm ......" Dong Fangzhuo was silent for a moment.
"I feel very satisfied and happy to be able to stand here and celebrate with you. Actually, I'm crazier than any of them. ”
"Thank you."
Ferguson did not look sideways at Dong Fangzhuo, but calmly suddenly popped out these two words.
“?”
A question mark flashed above Dong Fangzhuo's head.
"Thank you for all the great service you have made for Manchester United and for everyone."
"No, sir, it's me who should thank you for giving me the opportunity to serve you and giving me the highest football stage."
"Ha, then let's go conquer two more trophies!"
"Well, I'll get it back with everyone!"
※※※※
It has been a happy week for Manchester United fans as they await the team's trophy ceremony at Stamford Bridge......
On that day, the sun was shining and soft, like golden champagne flowing in the heart, fragrant and full of aftertaste.
The FA has specifically allowed Manchester United to wear their home red shirt, with Chelsea still wearing their blue shirt.
On that day, Ferguson let most of the main players wear suits and sit in the stands, but only let Dong Fangzhuo wear the captain's armband to lead the team.
He is one of a kind, and Ferguson believes that Dong Fangzhuo must lead the team as captain and enjoy the glory of the championship.
On that day, in the players' tunnel, there was no noise of war, no personal hatred, only tranquility and peace, and when Dong Fangzhuo led the players out of the locker room passage, two rows of dark blue queues were waiting for him.
Dong knows that Chelsea players are already lining up to welcome 200607 league title this season.
Bang Bang Bang ......
The applause grew louder and louder, and the Chelsea fans in the stands didn't skimp on their applause.
The opponents of a season, at this moment, are full of respect for each other.
And Dong Fangzhuo's hand was also amicably shaken with Terry's hand......
The game was not played conservatively, especially in attack, and both sides seemed to be testing the attack, after all, this game was a preview of the FA Cup final a week later, and the two sides went back and forth, but there was no goal.
Dong Fangzhuo also did not play with the Chelsea back, but the surprise came in the 38th minute.
Rossi tried to pick up the ball in the Chelsea box, but the ball bounced off Ashley Cole and the referee awarded a penalty.
"Oh my God, did you have a bad deal with Henry when you were at Arsenal?"
"If Dong scores this goal, he will tie Henry's goal record."
Indeed, when Dong Fangzhuo stood in front of Cech and sent the ball into the net steadily, his league goal tally reached 32.
Dong Fangzhuo did not celebrate, just raised his palms and applauded gently, he did not want to stimulate the Chelsea fans at this time, but also in the FA Cup final......
However, in the 73rd minute of the second half, Frank Lampard equalised with a long-range strike from outside the box to shake hands 1-1 and save the win for next weekend's FA Cup final......
"Captain,"
After the game, Modric caught up with Dong Fangzhuo.
"Luca, what's the matter?"
Modric scratched his head, as if he was a little embarrassed.
"Say, are you still going to be shy with me?"
"I have something I want to ask you, but I just don't know if it's inconvenient for you?"
"What's so mysterious, you dare to even in the locker room, what else can't you do?"
Modric scratched his head again, "I thought, can you be my best man on vacation?" ”
"Nima, why me, am I ugly?"
Dong Fangzhuo's face darkened, and his face was flat.
"No, no, those guys are not very convenient, they are all pushing around, I think you are so good, you should be fine."
"Holidays, I'm going to play the Asian Cup in July, clashes? But Luca," Dong Fangzhuo put his arm around Modric, "If you are looking for a best man, you have to find someone who is about the same height as yourself, I think you should find Park, you see that Park looks more honest than me, and his height is about the same, the key is that he is still very good at drinking, he has three lung ......"
