Glory's words did not calm the situation, and although he hoped that the argument would end there, it was actually after listening to what he said, and the argument became even worse, and the media in Manchester and North London simply tore it apart, saying everything but no swearing.

The north London media ridiculed Glory for being arrogant and arrogant, criticising Manchester City as an upstart and breaking the rules of the football market. The Manchester media ridiculed Arsenal as a poor man, and poured salt into Arsenal's wounds by reversing the old story of them being knocked out of the top four by Manchester City last season.

During this time, not only the Manchester media and the media in North London, but the whole of England were embroiled in the controversy.

Everyone is also curious about how Glory will fulfill the promise he made.

People look at the history of the glorious past and find that as long as he says it, he basically fulfills it. That is to say, he is a man of his word.

But in this matter, no matter how you look at it, it seems unlikely that he will deliver on his promise.

How difficult it is to break Arsenal's record of 49 games unbeaten in a row, meaning City will have to go on at least 50 games in a row.

Their previous 41-game unbeaten streak was not easy, but it came to an abrupt end. Want to do it again? Even another 41-game unbeaten streak will be difficult.

If it's so easy to go unbeaten streak, and you can come back whenever you want, then this record isn't uncommon, right?

It is precisely because of its preciousness that in the entire world football, the teams that can go undefeated are also very strong teams at that time.

Whether it's Arsenal or AC Milan in Serie A, they are the strongest teams in their respective leagues when they set the record.

Manchester city?

Although it is much stronger than before, it is still almost meaningless to set a zào record.

In the Manchester City team, everyone also reacted to what Rong Guang said, and it was inevitable that there would be all kinds of discussion in the dressing room.

Sun Hai found Rongguang, he didn't know if Rongguang, who was immersed in training, was aware of these changes, but as the team's vice-captain and a compatriot of Rongguang, he thought he should remind Rongguang of his attitude towards him in the locker room.

"Rong, those words of yours have made everyone talk about it." When Sun Hai found Glory, he frowned, and his tone was worried. "Everybody thinks it's too hard to get it done. It's almost impossible, and they're afraid that these words from you will make them and you both laughing......"

Rong Guang asked Sun Hai rhetorically: "Do you believe it?" ”

"Huh?"

"Do you believe we can achieve this?" Glory repeated.

"Uh......" Sun Hai didn't expect Rong Guang to ask him such a difficult question as soon as he came up.

If he is to answer "believe", it is to speak against his conscience, because he also finds it difficult, almost impossible, at least not to say that he can.

But in order for him to answer "I don't believe it" truthfully, he was worried that it would cause some impact and interference with the glory.

Sun Hai's brief silence had actually let Rong Guang know his answer.

Even Sun Hai didn't believe it......

So he nodded: "It's okay, Brother Hai." Everyone will believe it slowly. ”

Rongguang doesn't plan to explain too much, and what he says at this time won't have much effect. But fortunately, football is a sport that depends on the actual results, whether it works or not, just play on the field. Speaking with results is 10,000 times more persuasive than speaking with words.

This time, Glory does not plan to agitate his teammates like he did before the Champions League group stage.

Because he knows that the Champions League group stage is only six games, which is not long.

But 50 league games is a long process, and it's easy to motivate your teammates with words to be in good form in six games, but it's too hard to keep them in good form in 50 games.

Not to mention words, even if it is by training, it is difficult.

There is no guarantee that a team will always be in great shape because there will be too many uncertainties.

All Glory can do is help the team win when the team is in good shape. And when the team is not in good shape, they rely on their own strength to let the team win.

Sun Hai saw that Rong Guang was so firm, and suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.

Rong Guang is so determined and persistent, and he is doubting him.

It doesn't matter if you can't help yourself, and now you can't even believe him......

Think about his previous appearance in the team, when did he let us down?

Why should we doubt him this time?

Thinking of this, Sun Hai plucked up the courage to say to Rongguang: "I believe in you, I believe we can do it." ”

Rongguang smiled and said to Sun Hai, "Thank you." ”

"Come on!" Sun Hai patted Rongguang's shoulder.

In the twenty-third round of the league, Manchester City challenged Stoke City away, which was a very ordinary league.

Manchester City have beaten 2-0 at home and Stoke City are definitely not the kind of opponent who can cause problems for Manchester City.

But on their home turf, Stoke City showed their mettle.

Their tenacity and aggressiveness in the game have taken many by surprise.

Even the narrator, John Mortson, is saying, "...... Stoke City's cousins are astonishing, they are as fierce as ...... It's like relegation. It is still very difficult to see such a ferocious Stoke City player, who keeps tackling and fouling during the game. Make it difficult for City's attack to advance ......"

"It's a very useful countermeasure when the whole team is in poor form, using fouls to stifle the appearance of the whole City squad so that they can't find the ......rhythm of the attack," explains Alan Hansen.

On the pitch, Manchester City did play passively and their attacks were difficult to push to the point where they could threaten Stoke City's ball.

However, Stoke City used ferocious pressing to grab the ball many times to launch attacks, threatening Manchester City's goal.

And it's not just the advantage of the scene, in terms of the score, Stoke City, which is playing at home, is now leading Manchester City 1:0!

The shouts of the Stoke City fans in the stands were deafening, creating a terrifying home atmosphere.

And the players of Stoke City also played extremely hard in the cheers of the fans.

This has put a lot of pressure on Manchester City's players.

In such an environment, Manchester City can still play well.

In the press booth, George Allen, a reporter from the North London Clarion, snorted: "It looks like Young's rhetoric is about to turn into a joke in the first game!" ”

Yes, many people feel that this Manchester City is very likely to lose this game.

It's not because Stoke City have a one-goal lead over Manchester City at home.

Falling behind by one goal is nothing for Manchester City, who have been able to equalise or even come back from behind by more than one goal.

The main reason why people feel that Manchester City can't win this game is that people have played for dozens of minutes, and they don't see any possibility of Manchester City equalizing at all, and they are heavily resisted by Stoke City in attack, and Manchester City can hardly organize a decent attack. Their players are not in great personal form, and there are a lot of active mistakes.

In that case, how can one believe that they can equalize?

With the 77th minute played, there was less and less time left for Manchester City.

The Stoke City fans in the stands were singing louder and louder.

It was at this point that Stoke City's defender fouled Sneijder thirty-one metres from goal and City were awarded a direct free-kick.

Glory stood at the spot of the penalty kick with the soccer ball in his arms.

He began to set up the football.

The Stoke City player symbolically argued with the referee before withdrawing. Ended an attack by Manchester City, who had yet to receive a yellow card, and the foul was a bargain for the fouling player.

But it was when they started to put up the wall that the Stoke players reacted.

Glory's free kick is also very good!

The location...... Isn't it a little too dangerous?

But now it's too late for them to regret it.

Glory has set up the football, and is standing up, stepping away, ready to run for a free kick!

The human wall of Stoke City became tense, and the human wall that was originally five people was added by two people, and it became a human wall of seven people.

Half of the goal is blocked.

Stoke City's goalkeeper is on the other side.

The Stoke City fans in the stands also reacted - Glory's free-kick percentage is also very high, so this is a Manchester City attacking opportunity!

They stopped singing and looked at the area at the edge of the box with a little nervousness.

Commentator John Mortensen raised the volume: "If Manchester City are to avoid defeat, this is their best chance!" Take advantage of Sakae's direct free-kick ......"

Alan Hansen said: "A direct free-kick is not a goal, how can it be so easy to score at this time? ”

"Is it like breaking Arsenal's 49-game unbeaten streak?" John Mortenson asked rhetorically.

Alan Hansen laughed.

Just laughing, the referee on the field blew the whistle, only to see Rongguang exhale, and then start running.

Four steps later, he hit the ball with his left foot.

This time it's not the right foot, it's the left foot!

This means that the final form of football is different. The right foot is the elevator ball, and the left foot is the curve ball!

Sure enough, the ball rose into the air, with a very strong rotation, and went around the upper left of the human wall, drawing a very obvious arc in the air!

Stoke City's goalkeeper Sorensen was initially defending Glory's elevator ball, so when Glory hit the ball, he didn't immediately take to the air, but planned to wait for the ball to come over from behind the wall.

But when he saw the football, he saw that it was coming around from the outside!

It's a banana ball!

He scrambled to his feet, but even with his arms extended, he was still a little far from the football......

He could only watch in the air as the ball flew into the goal by grazing the post!

“ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG！！！” John Mortensen raised his arms and shouted. "He did it! He equalised for Manchester City! ”
