Chapter 879: The Big Picture Has Been Decided
When Glory scored, word quickly reached London.
In the Emirates Stadium, there was a sudden loud wave of boos.
At this time, the players who got the ball were Arsenal players, and they were a little confused in the face of the sudden boos from Arsenal fans, and they didn't understand why they were booed by their fans.
Arsene Wenger wasn't surprised to turn his head to look at the fans in the stage, because he knew why they were booing.
He probably knew what was going on at Old Trafford a few seconds before those guys.
Assistant coach Declan Rice has given him an update on the city derby.
Arsene Wenger knew that the glory scored twice to help City turn the lead.
When he heard the news, Wenger's brows furrowed, he didn't say a word, and his face was gloomy.
He knew exactly what that meant.
Until now, Arsenal have yet to equalise and they are still 2-1 down to Chelsea.
Manchester City, on the other hand, were ahead.
If the game is over here, everyone is now the score.
Then Manchester City will squeeze out Arsenal by one point and become fourth in the league!
Once Manchester City overtook Arsenal in this game, the next game against Arsenal will be difficult.
They must beat Manchester United away from home to make it two wins in a row in the final two rounds of the league.
At the same time, it is also expected that Manchester City will not win at least one league game.
But...... It's hard to look at.
In short, Manchester City cannot win. A win for City was the worst of the many scenarios Wenger had envisioned.
But now, Wenger can't do anything about it.
He couldn't decide the outcome of that match between Manchester City and Manchester United.
The only thing he can do is try to win the game in front of him.
So he got up and walked to the sidelines.
Arsenal are still one goal behind Chelsea, and although Arsenal still occupy more possession, they ...... If that possession doesn't translate into goals, it's meaningless.
Maybe it's time for him to change his mind.
Chelsea don't care about possession at all, they just need to win. Passing Arsenal around, but unable to break through Chelsea's defence, Chelsea's counter-attacking efforts were impressive.

"Manchester United are behind?" Kenny Dalglish turned to the assistant coach next to him.
After receiving an affirmative reply from the assistant coach, Dalglish appeared happy.
Although his side have been beaten home and away by Manchester City this season, he now has to applaud Manchester City.
"Hopefully they will continue to work hard and try to score another goal and seal the win completely!"
Dalglish laughed.
If Manchester City can beat Manchester United, the six-point gap between the two sides will become three, and there are only two league games remaining. The difference of three points......
Manchester United host Arsenal in the next round of the league and Arsenal will certainly be on the road in order to finish fourth in the league and qualify for next season's Champions League. If Arsenal can beat Manchester United, Liverpool will win West Bromwich Albion - and there is almost no suspense.
That would allow Liverpool to chase down the deuce.
In the case of a tie, the two sides compare the goal difference first.
In terms of goal difference, Liverpool now have forty-five, while Manchester United have only forty.
There is an advantage in goal difference, so Liverpool is likely to win the league title by virtue of goal difference!
Since the establishment of the Premier League, Liverpool, the former hegemon of English football, has never been able to win the league title.
Liverpudlians have fought for generations for this dream, and now ...... It's finally time to look at your own hands!
Dalglish was a little excited at the thought of this future.
Once again, he will write his name in the history of the club!

When the game resumed, the Manchester City players were as excited as if they were on drugs en masse.
Manchester United, on the other hand, are a bit of a haunt – they defended so tightly and came strictly according to the manager's arrangement, but why couldn't they stop Glory from scoring?
Didn't the boss say that as long as Rong Guang was on the wing, his threat to the goal would be much less?
But now he's scored twice!
So what can be done to stop this person?
When Manchester United's players start to think like that, it naturally becomes difficult for them to concentrate in the game.
Cristiano Ronaldo is active up front, but he's more of a solo player.
He actually needs the support of his teammates, but his teammates can't support him now, and Cristiano Ronaldo himself doesn't mind whether there is support or not, the ball is at his feet, he is more on his own, anywhere in the front court, he can get up and shoot, regardless of whether that position is suitable for direct shooting.
Klose and Tevez both became dead-cutters, giving up the front completely to Cristiano Ronaldo.
Tevez was a little indignant, and when the football was at his feet, he wouldn't pass it to Cristiano Ronaldo.
Klose doesn't care, if he can pass the ball to Cristiano Ronaldo, he will pass the ball to the Portuguese, if he can pass the ball to Tevez, he will pass to Tevez, and he will pass the ball more to see who is in the better position. If no one is in a better position, then pass it back.
He played calmly.
It's just that he alone can't decide the direction of the whole game.
Klose was calmly playing football, and he was also calmly observing the difference between his teammates and glory.
Cristiano Ronaldo and Glory, both of whom are super powerful young people, are peerless geniuses.
But now it seems that there is a reason why Cristiano Ronaldo has not won several meetings with Glory.
Glory has always been able to stay calm, while Cristiano Ronaldo knows to go it alone when he has a problem.
In this way, Cristiano Ronaldo still has a long way to go to beat Glory......
Klose made a conclusion in his mind.

While Cristiano Ronaldo was still desperately trying to find a way to score, Glory was not idle.
After the goal, Manchester City's morale was boosted, and everyone tried to pass the football to the feet of Rongguang, and then let Rongguang deal with Rafael and Park Ji-sung.
Despite facing the defense of these two men, Rong Guang did not feel pressured at all.
The South Korean media who followed the game now know that their national heroes Park Ji-sung and Glory are not players of the same grade at all. There was no too direct dialogue between the two people before, so it was not obvious yet, and it can be inferred that the two did not really fight.
But this time, Park Ji-sung directly went one-on-one with Rongguang in the game, and as a result, Rongguang was suddenly a little unable to find the north.
The real gap between the two people is unmistakable.
Ferguson can only let Fletcher help Park Ji-sung and Rafael, and the people who defend Glory have been upgraded from the original Rafael to Rafael and Park Ji-sung, and now it has been upgraded to three!
The three of them worked together to defend Glory, with Park Ji-sung and Rafael up front and Fletcher acting as a scavenger in the back.
Just for the sake of defending a glory, Manchester United are so aggressive, but no one will think that is wrong.
On the contrary, if they don't, they will be insecure.
But the number of people on the pitch is limited, just eleven. If you use one more person in one place, it means you have one less person in another place.
Fletcher came to help defend Glory and the result was that United were a little empty in the middle......
So when Glory caught the attention of three Manchester United players on the flank, it was clear to him what to do next......
When Rongguang faced the three people, he did not continue to force a breakthrough, but suddenly sent the football out of the encirclement.
Underbatov, who was then following up in the middle, picked up his right foot and volleyed hard, but Leo Ferdinand, who had deceived his defenders, fell to the ground and tried to block his shot with his body.
But when Berbatov's right foot came down, it wasn't a volley, it was ...... Rub and!
His foot shovels underneath the ball, and the ball draws a parabola in the air!
Bypassing Leo Ferdinand, who had already fallen to the ground, and also surprised Van der Sar, who was on guard, he was ready to pounce on the side, but the football went around in a circle!
After he reacts, it is too late to make a save......
For the third time, the football flew into the Manchester United goal!
3:1!
In the seventy-third minute, Manchester City almost sealed the win!
※※※
"Dimitov! Berbatov!! John Mortenson shouted. Rong's assist, Berbatov's dashing goal! Manchester City actually took a two-goal lead 3-1 away from home! In a game of this level, the difference of two goals can almost declare the suspense of the game! ”
As Berbatov celebrated his goal, Ferguson sat in the chair of the dugout with a somber face.
He clenched his hands into fists and rested them on his knees.
He was not reconciled.
But what can you do if you are not reconciled?
Such an honor......
What can you do if you are unwilling?
Is there anything that can be done to keep Manchester United from losing this game?
Ferguson's goal now is not to win, but to draw.
But even then, it's hard.
City have found a way to deal with Manchester United, and they cannot afford to continue to add troops there, so sooner or later the defense in the middle will collapse.
It takes more energy to defend, and on the other hand, it doesn't invest too much in attack, so you can't give Cristiano Ronaldo more support, and he will fall into the trap of going it alone...... That would not have threatened Joe Hart's goal......
However, the most painful result is not actually Ferguson, but Wenger.
When Wenger heard from Rice that Berbatov scored a goal from a glorious pass to make the score 3-1, he sat in the dugout and was speechless for a long time.
