"Hey, Chelsea boy, good job!" "You should have scored a few more goals at shit Anfield!" "Well done, boy, what's it like to slap Liverpool, isn't it particularly good, haha!" …… On the way to his seat at Old Trafford, he received cordial greetings from many Manchester United fans, and some even asked for autographs and group photos. After this treatment, Lao Lei almost thought he was a Manchester United player. It is not difficult to find out from the content of what the United fans say that Lao Lei has such popularity among the Manchester United fan group because of what he did to Liverpool and his hostile relationship with Liverpool. What's more, he will not be able to play in this game, so Manchester United fans have no scruples to be friendly to him. Sometimes, the saying that the enemy of your enemy is your friend is also applicable on the football field.

Sitting in his seat, Lao Lei touched his chin, still not waking up from the surprise just now. At Old Trafford, being a visiting player and receiving such a courtesy from a Manchester United fan is a very good feeling. Although he knows that United fans are not really his own fans, they only love what he does with Liverpool. However, this does not prevent him from enjoying such treatment at this time. However, at the same time, he also guessed a little maliciously in his heart, thinking: "I don't know, when I make a fuss here, what will happen to them?!" Hey, hey, hey. ”

While the players from both sides were on the field, Lao Lei also looked at the entire Old Trafford stadium with boredom, which is the stadium of England's top giants Manchester United with the name of the Theater of Dreams. As one of the UEFA five-star stadiums in England, Old T Old Ford can accommodate up to more than 76,000 people. In terms of scale, it is undoubtedly a level larger than Stamford Bridge, which can only accommodate more than 42,000 people. Huge pitch. It may not mean that its owners are a terrible team, but it is certain that there are only enough fans. It can have a shocking atmosphere and spectacle. Or in other words, it has the potential to become the home of the devil.

Old Trafford has undoubtedly done just that, with the pride and pride of being a United fan, with tens of thousands of United fans pouring into the stadium every Manchester United home game, putting a huge psychological pressure on the visitors from afar with their own boos, singing or invective. At this time, what Lao Lei felt was singing, and more than 70,000 Manchester United fans sang "Glory to Manchester United" in unison, which brought him a different kind of shock, which was different from what he saw when he stood on the field. The eyes are full of red, and the sound is deafening. This qiē is more powerful than what you see and hear on the pitch, because you are in the middle of them.

However, after the shock, there was another wave of regret in Lao Lei's heart. "I want to play away from home like this!" This is Lao Lei's only voice at this time. At this moment, he even imagined for a moment the overwhelming boos and invectives that would ring in his ears when he celebrated here. Thinking of this, Lao Lei trembled slightly with some nervousness all over his body. "It's really a wonderful feeling." With such thoughts. Deep regret struck him again. Thankfully, he's at least one more chance to come here this season, as long as he's not rotated or suspended.

Other than that. It is worth mentioning that in the second leg of the other semi-final that kicked off earlier, the visiting Liverpool won 1-0 away at Watford again. In the end, the overall score was 2:0. Successfully eliminated Watford and advanced to the final of this season's League Cup. As soon as the news came out. It was the sports media that caught the interest of the sports media all over England. Because whoever ends up meeting Liverpool in the Carabao Cup final between Chelsea and Manchester United will be the focus of attention across England. There will be endless topics to talk about.

However, as far as the media are concerned, they would prefer Chelsea to make it to the final. Because the two meetings between Liverpool and Chelsea this season have successfully become the most topical and controversial games in the Premier League this year. Because of these two games, many reporters have received a generous bonus, and even the sales of major newspapers and the ratings of football TV shows have increased a lot during that time.

So now the match between Chelsea and Liverpool is like a super celebration for the money you get when you participate, in the eyes of the media and reporters. Although Manchester United and Liverpool's double red meeting is also very popular, but nothing is fresh and good, from the current point of view, it is undoubtedly Chelsea and Liverpool can attract more attention and focus. What's more, considering the elder Reina's famous "Liverpool no title" declaration, once Chelsea and Liverpool meet in the League Cup final, the attraction and attention of this final will definitely rise to a terrifying and abnormal stage. And that's what all the media and journalists like to see, and even the FA would probably be more happy to see it, because for them, that's the benefit.

And this point, Lao Lei thought of when he knew the result of the match between Liverpool and Watford. To be honest, he really didn't expect that the feud with Liverpool in his first season in the Premier League would even deepen. If you want to say why, the answer in Lao Lei's words is: "Do I look like a villain boss who was slapped in the face?" In order to keep his promise, he is now desperate for his team-mates to beat Manchester United. Because he is the kind of person who likes to do things with his own hands, and does not like the initiative to fall into the hands of others. "Liverpool, hehe, it's really fate!" Thinking about it, a cold smile that made people palpitate appeared on the corner of Lao Lei's mouth again.

However, soon a deafening cheer pulled him out of his thoughts, and the players from both sides officially entered the game. At this time, there was one thing that Lao Lei expected. On Chelsea's side, it wasn't him, nor any Chelsea player, who got the most boos from Manchester United, but Jose Mourinho standing on the sidelines in a crisp suit. Obviously, United fans don't have much affection for the Portuguese coach, who was bold enough to fight Ferguson with a war of words.

Especially before the game, Mourinho once again had a big war of words with Ferguson. And claimed: "He's just a complaining, red-nosed old man with a big mouth." "That's it. With Ferguson's totemic status among Manchester United fans, it is no wonder that Mourinho can get a friendly look from Manchester United fans at Old Trafford. But. He didn't care, otherwise, he wouldn't have started arguing with Ferguson again on the sidelines at this time.

Less than 1 minute into the opening period, the first foul of the game came. Scholes received Keane's pass near the centre circle and was knocked down by Chelsea's no.8 before he could turn around with a nimble pull and completely shake off Frank Lampard. And Ferguson, who was on the sidelines, began to nag and complain to the fourth official to put pressure on the referee by taking advantage of the referee's decision that he did not show a card.

At this time, Mourinho, who was on the side, also happened to hear Ferguson's complaints, which led to the quarrel between the two. See this scene. Lao Lei couldn't help but think of the tasks about Ferguson that he saw in the taskbar of the system, and thought about the scene that would appear when he did the task, which was suddenly very interesting. Then as soon as he heard the overwhelming boos at the scene, Lao Lei suddenly became more interested in those tasks. "Interesting! It's so much fun!! He couldn't help but think in his heart.

Whatever he thinks, though, even if he does do have those tasks, it will be until the next time he plays United. The restart of the game on the field presented a fierce battle that was not inferior to the previous round between the two teams, and the two sides were fiercely competitive, but not evenly matched. It's the kind of game that is the hardest to guess. Even with the advantage of home stadium, United still struggled against Chelsea's rock-solid defence.

Also, in this game. Jose Mourinho has clearly made a more detailed arrangement of the defence, hoarding heavy troops to defend on the wings, which has limited the play of Cristiano Ronaldo and Ryan Giggs, the two wingers. This is undoubtedly extremely targeted. Although United still have top midfielders such as Paul Scholes and Keane in the middle, they have grown older. Their impact has been greatly weakened. And Ruud van Nistelrooy, who started the game, is not the kind of striker who can withdraw from the penalty area and break through with the ball. So now this Manchester United team is still in the rebuilding period. It is stronger than the wing, and in the middle of the lane it has dropped a lot from its heyday. Ferguson is also helpless in this situation, because Ronaldo and Rooney have not fully grown up, so Manchester United still have some days to live like this.

In such a favourable favour of Chelsea's counter-attack, the first goal of the game finally came in the 30th minute of the first half, scored by Frank Lampard. A counter-attack won a corner, snatched the second spot from outside the box and fired a powerful volley that United goalkeeper Howard had nothing to do. Although there is still time, Manchester United have every chance to fight back. But Lao Lei, who was sitting in the stands, knew that Manchester United was already hanging. Because he is the one who knows Mourinho's football philosophy best apart from Mourinho himself.

In the following games, Mourinho showed how practical a manager can be in this situation. Pulling back across the board, Chelsea completely shrunk their formation after taking the lead, with a big swing at Old Trafford. Manchester United fans are unhappy and helpless about this. Booing is the only thing they can do at this time.

After a one-goal lead, the tempo and the situation were completely in Chelsea's hands. With Manchester United helpless to attack with all their might, Chelsea are attacking on the counter-attack. Although there is no Robben as a sharp knife, the active appearance of Joe Cole and Duff still makes Manchester United's defense jump and uneasy. In the 56th minute of the second half, Didier Drogba scored another goal to seal the win for Chelsea. It was another counter-attack, and after Drogba received Duff's precise cross from the middle, he knocked on Howard's door again with a powerful header.

The score of 2-0 was maintained by Chelsea with a suffocating defense until the end of the game.

And before the game officially ended, there was a small episode that even Old Ray was surprised.

Two minutes before the end of the game, when the Old Trafford commentators thought the big picture was gone and United lost, there was a sudden burst of shouts that shook the whole stadium. They weren't cheering for the goal, they weren't cheering for the Manchester United players, they were cheering for the Carabao Cup final that didn't belong to them.

“BLIV！！ BLIV！！ BLIV！！ BLIV！！ BLIV！！ ......" At the huge Old Trafford, Manchester United fans were raising their arms and chanting. A huge sound resounded over Old Trafford.

"Knock over Liverpool?!"

"That's what I want to do!!"

"'They don't want to win any titles!' ”

"I'm serious about that!!" (To be continued......)
