The next day, the results of both Everton and Aston Villa were out.

Everton beat Wigan Athletic 4-0 at home, so they are still level on points with Manchester City, who are not far away from their opponents because they have a better goal difference and more goals, so they are higher in the table.

There was also good news for Aston Villa who lost 3-2 at Manchester United, leaving them at 52 points.

As a result, Manchester City and Aston Villa are only one point separating.

As long as Aston Villa has a mistake in the next round of the league, Manchester City can win, and they can take advantage of the situation to surpass them and be promoted to fifth!

At this time, the importance of those two glorious goals became more and more apparent.

Because when your opponent makes a mistake, if you also make a mistake, then in the end you will not achieve the goal, you can only blame yourself, it is your own lack of effort, this is called self-inflicted sin and cannot live.

If it weren't for those two glorious goals, Manchester City would not be happy to see Aston Villa lose the game now, because it has nothing to do with them.

And with these two glorious goals, especially the last-gasp winner, Manchester City can now close the gap between them and fifth in the league to one point!

Add in the four points difference between them and Arsenal...... They are very, very close to the top four in the league!

The day after the game, when the results of the match between Aston Villa and Manchester United came out, Manchester radio was talking about the glorious brace.

Many Manchester City fans called the hotline to express their admiration and gratitude to the glory.

This made Rong Guang, who drove to training, very happy to hear it, and he was in a good mood all day.

With seven league games remaining after winning Arsenal, City will have to win all of them if they are to secure Champions League qualification next season.

Compared to the rest of Arsenal's fixtures, Manchester City's opponents are much easier to deal with, with only two of the seven league games against opponents not too easy to deal with. One was the 34th round of the league, when Manchester City challenged Everton away. If City can win against Everton, they can leave Everton behind without them continuing to keep the pressure on themselves.

The other game is the 36th round of the league, Manchester City Derby, Manchester City away to Manchester United.

This game is the most critical.

If City lose this derby, they could lose their hopes of qualifying for next season's Champions League.

But Rong Guang liked this arrangement very much. He can just vent the breath of the first half of the season, and he can take revenge, and help the team qualify for the Champions League next season, which is really a double win, so why not?

In the following round of the 32nd round of the league, Manchester City defeated Fulham 3-1 at home, and although Glory did not score in the game, he provided two assists. Assist for goals from Dimitar Berbatov and Robinho respectively.

Another game that caught the attention of Manchester City was the direct dialogue between Eston Villa and Everton, which ended in a 3-3 draw!

After all, Everton also want to compete for European qualification, they are so close to Aston Villa, how can they not do their best in direct dialogue with Aston Villa?

Everton did their best, Aston Villa did their best, and the end result was a lose-lose situation.

The two sides played a 3-3 draw, allowing Manchester City to reap the benefits.

As a result, Manchester City has 54 points, Aston Villa only has 53 points, and Manchester City has completed the overtaking in points, and they have become fifth in the league!

And what about Everton? Fifty-one points became fifty-two, still seventh in the league, and there was no change in the standings, but it was also pulled away by Manchester City......

In another match that Manchester City fans are watching, Arsenal beat Wigan Athletic 4-1 away. It doesn't look like they've been affected by the home defeat to Manchester City in the last round.

The gap between them and Manchester City remains at four points.

In fact, as long as Arsenal can continue to win like this, Manchester City has no chance at all. But...... The problem is that they can't guarantee that they can win all the time.

In the 33rd round of the league, Manchester City hosted West Bromwich Albion, Aston Villa hosted West Ham United, Everton took on Chelsea away, and Arsenal ushered in a strong conversation between them and Liverpool - this game was the most watched game in the entire round of the league, and not just Manchester City fans.

In the end, Glory scored a goal in the game as Manchester City beat West Bromwich Albion 4-2 at home to maintain their winning streak and continue to put pressure on Arsenal.

Aston Villa, on the other hand, were held to a 1-1 draw at home by West Ham United!

Everton also drew 0-0 away at Chelsea.

The good news is not over. Soon, the results of the game on Arsenal's side also came, and after a fierce battle, Arsenal drew 4:4 with Liverpool away from home!

In the conversation between the fourth and third in the league, no one took advantage!

Liverpool, who were four points clear of Manchester United, were hoping to catch up in the final moments, but Arsenal prevented them from moving forward.

Arsenal, meanwhile, are looking to cement their fourth place in the league, but how can Liverpool let them get their way?

Both sides had their own reasons for winning, and the result was that neither of them won after a close battle.

A draw doesn't mean much for both teams, and this result means both teams lose.

In the same league game, Manchester United beat Wigan Athletic 2-1 away, and the gap between them and Liverpool has been stretched to six points.

At the same time, Arsenal did not win, and the gap between them and Manchester City has narrowed from the previous four points to two points!

Arsenal are fourth with 59 points and Manchester City are fifth with 57 points!

The distance between the two sides is getting closer!

Now all Manchester City fans are turning their attention to the league, the league is the main battleground, they can't wait for tomorrow to be the next round of the league, hoping to complete the comeback against Arsenal in the next round of the league!

Unfortunately, the FA Cup semi-finals are next......

Manchester City will host Chelsea in the FA Cup semi-finals.

If it weren't for the current shape, Manchester City fans would have been more interested in the FA Cup.

Because if Manchester City are to qualify for next season's European competition, the FA Cup is an easier way to achieve that goal than the league.

Manchester City fans will be hoping the team can make it all the way to the FA Cup final. As long as you can reach the final, you have a good chance of qualifying for the League Cup. Even if you lose the final, it's okay to only finish as a runner-up.

Because the FA Cup winners are likely to be the top four teams in the league, they have all qualified for the Champions League, and the FA Cup winner will automatically qualify for the UEFA Cup.

That's the idea that Manchester City fans played at the time. At that time, the second half of the season had just begun, and although Manchester City's results had improved, no one could have imagined that Manchester City would be so crazy next.

Now...... If we have hopes of qualifying for next season's Champions League, who is going to win the UEFA Cup?

Even if they reach the FA Cup semi-finals, Manchester City fans are not too concerned, and they are even worried about whether the team's FA Cup semi-final clash with Chelsea will affect the team's fight with Arsenal for the top four in the league.

Manchester City's manager Rafael Benitez is now seriously considering the matter – is it necessary to be distracted to play in the FA Cup at this juncture, Manchester City's league form is so good?

Benitez had previously invested in the FA Cup just in case City failed in the league and at least qualified for the FA Cup. Although his goal is the Champions League, as a manager, you can't always take it for granted, and you still need to consider some practical situations.

But now, it doesn't seem necessary to continue investing in the FA Cup......

Thinking of this, he plans to rotate in the FA Cup, remove all the main players, and let them have a good rest, after all, it is very tiring to have a week of cheeks, and the next away league game against Everton is very important, and it is not very easy to play, so I have to recharge for that game.

Benitez's idea was quickly expressed in training, when he had his former substitutes wear yellow vests, which symbolize the main line-up, during training matches.

The players could tell that the boss was planning to give up on the FA Cup semi-final.

The rest of the players don't care, to be honest, their energy is all in the league, they don't care about the FA Cup games or anything.

But the glory is gone.

At the end of the training and when everyone had not yet left the field, Rongguang stood up: "Boss, I have a different opinion on your arrangement. ”

The players who were about to leave the training ground were all taken aback when they heard Rongguang's sudden words.

City's coaching staff were just as surprised.

They all stopped, didn't go, and turned their heads to look at the glory.

Benitez was also a little surprised, he asked, "What are the different opinions?" ”

Glory said in front of the whole team: "I don't think we should give up the FA Cup. I understand your concerns, but now that the FA Cup is in the semi-finals, it's not when we just played one or two games, and we're only two games away from the title, so I'm a little unwilling to give up at this time. There are only two games left in the FA Cup, and even if you have to consume physical fitness, it is not much, and physical fitness is not a problem at all. ”

Benitez was listening to Glory, but at the same time he wasn't looking at Glory, he was looking at the other City players.

He wanted to see how many people had the same idea as Glory.

"With only two races to win the title, why should we give up? We haven't won the league this season and the FA Cup is the only one hopeful of winning the trophy and I don't want to pass up that opportunity. Glory continued.

When he joined Manchester City, he said that he wanted to make Manchester City a giant, and the only way to become a giant is to win the championship, relying on the accumulation of one championship after another.

Therefore, any champion of Glory is unwilling to give up, regardless of the gold content of this championship.

Manchester City were eliminated in the first round of the League Cup this season, and Glory has no hope of winning the League Cup. The league title now seems almost impossible, so there is only one FA Cup title left, and Glory will not give up anything.
