Chapter 534: Camp Nou (Page 1/1)

"The name of the Premier League's number one striker is Dong, he is the new king of the English league, after Shevchenko lost his shooting boots, Thierry Henry was on the bench, Kuyt had not yet adapted to the Premier League, and Owen was lying in a hospital bed again, Dong scored his sixth goal of the season to occupy the top scorer list, while his partner and friend Cristiano Ronaldo followed with five goals." The Manchester Evening News wrote an article after the game praising Dong Fangzhuo, "We don't need to use any words to describe Dong's great contribution to Manchester United. ”

Then, as soon as the conversation changed, he criticized Ronaldo and Rooney.

'But the rest of the team-mates should follow his pace as well, and if he is the only one to be trusted in the game, then United won't go far, especially in the Champions League. Wayne Rooney should always wear shooting boots and Ronaldo should think about his team-mates......"

'If we still have a memory, then we should remember very well what the second leg of last year's Champions League semi-final was like, it was a shame for Manchester United.

Despite the game against Reading with one game to go, the Manchester Evening News has already started to imagine the Champions League group stage, as everyone at Manchester United instantly gnashes their teeth when they think about last year......

※※※※

In Manchester in September, when the sky is always full of dark clouds and a soft southeast wind blows, Manchester United buses are quietly parked on the side of the training ground at Carrington base, and Manchester United players are pulling their luggage one by one.

After a 1-0 win away at Reading in the league, United have won six consecutive league games and have won all competitions this season.

But today they will travel to the Spanish Camp Nou to face one of the strongest opponents of the season, Barcelona.

Barcelona

The team that knocked out Chelsea and Manchester United in quick succession last season and finally stepped on Arsenal to reach the top of the Champions League.

Manchester United and Barcelona met in Group A of the Champions League group stage this season, and last season's feud has continued into this season.

In the first round of the Champions League, Manchester United beat Bremen 4-0, while Barcelona beat Sofiavski 5-0, and in the second round, the two sides met at Camp Nou, both fighting for the top spot in the group. Ferguson rotated most of his main players last weekend, Dong Fangzhuo did not start, while Manchester United won 1-0 away at Reading and Barcelona also rotated, but it was still a 5-0 game, Messi scored a hat-trick in the game, and his good form also allowed Rijkaard to put Messi in the Champions League starting list in midweek.

The weather in Barcelona, Spain is obviously better than that in Manchester, with sunny days and pleasant temperatures, like coming to paradise on earth.

Smelling the fresh air of Barcelona, Dong Fangzhuo is reminiscing about last year's Champions League semi-finals, "I can never forget the pain of last year's semi-finals, even if it is just a group stage, I want to win Barcelona." ”

Sitting by the window, Dong Fangzhuo suddenly chatted with Ronaldo next to him about the defeat at Camp Nou last year.

'It was terrible, I still can't figure out why we lost so badly away from home. Cristiano Ronaldo's memory is also very deep.

In fact, every Manchester United is very profound, in the second leg of the semi-finals, Manchester United originally led 1:0 away with Ronaldo's goal, but in the 10th minute, Dong Fangzhuo was injured, but the final result was 1:4, Manchester United was ravaged at Camp Nou, taking away the biggest Champions League shame in the history of Manchester United's knockout round.

'This time, we're going to do everything we can to score goals and we're going to try to take the win.' Dong Fangzhuo's fists squeaked, his eyes showed a fierce light, no one wanted to play this game more than him!

But he didn't dare to say big things, he must win at Camp Nou, he can only say 'fight', because if you want to win at Camp Nou, it's too difficult, almost impossible, and it's already difficult to get a draw, but it's not that no team does it, La Liga teams often draw or win Barcelona at Camp Nou.

But Barcelona's European results?

This European competition is Barcelona's 26th European competition at home to an English club, and Barca are unbeaten in 16 meetings with English clubs since Liverpool's narrow 1-0 win at Camp Nou in 1976.

Barcelona are unbeaten in their last 11 Champions League home games, winning eight and drawing three, and in the peak of Manchester United's 1998-99 season, Manchester United only drew 3-3 away from Barcelona.

"The English are here again, and they will only go back with a new disgrace." "World Sports" Chi Guoguo looks at Manchester United and does not think that Manchester United will have any profound performance when he comes to Camp Nou again.

"Compared with last season, Ferguson's Manchester United has not changed much, the midfield has added a Croatian Modric, although the 21-year-old Modric has shown the potential to become a superstar, he alone can not hold up Manchester United, the biggest threat is still Manchester United's trident, compared to last season, this season the three of them have become more mature and stable."

"Of course, Barcelona's squad is not complete, but the incomplete Barcelona is enough to finish Manchester United at the Camp Nou, Barcelona continue to move towards the path of the defending champions, any stumbling blocks in the way will be swept away, until the final, it is certain that Barcelona's opponent will definitely not be a team of Manchester United's level."

"Marca" also expressed a similar opinion, "The team that can control the ball will win the game, there is no draw at Camp Nou, only victory and defeat, and obviously the victory must belong to Barcelona, last season's Rijkaard played relatively conservatively, this season Manchester United will have no chance, bold prediction, Ronaldinho scored 2 goals, Messi scored 1 goal, and Manchester United, maybe the board will score 1, the game will end up 3:1 or 4:1." ”

"Manchester United's midfield can't beat Barcelona at all, in terms of passing philosophy, this Barcelona team has reached a new level, and only Barcelona can beat Barcelona themselves."

Even several major spinach companies in Europe are not optimistic about Manchester United, the handicaps they offer are very similar, Barcelona let half one, and even have a goal concedent, the media's opinion is not enough to believe, but the spinach company is still worth referencing.

Once again, Manchester United was not favored by Chiguoguo......

※※※※

"Captain,"

"Huh?"

"I'll help you with your luggage."

"You are Catalans, one day you will come back here, and when the time comes, we will be rivals."

'But I'm at Manchester United now and I'm fighting for Manchester United.

Pique followed behind Dong Fangzhuo and suddenly offered his courtesy......

"Today's you, a little unusual, why?"
