The clash between two of England's best teams in the last decade or so is the biggest event in the Premier League.

Macheda, an Italian teenager who experienced the 'English derby' for the first time, was shocked by the scene in front of him, a little nervous and a little excited: "It's so fanatical, God! It's going to be suffocating in a game like this, and if I can score goals, I'll die happy. ”

Owen was injured in training, it was an old injury, so Ferguson will recruit the excellent Italian teenager Macheda in the reserve team and enter the squad for this game, of course, it is impossible to start, and the Italian teenager will appear on the bench as a 'surprise soldier', waiting to be called at any time.

This is not the first time Macheda has played with the first team, the Italian youngster who joined the team last summer has also played in the first team, but it is all games such as the League Cup, and as for the super heavyweight game against Arsenal, Macheda is the first time to experience it, so it is no wonder that he is so excited.

Jonker was so excited to see Macheda and he remembered himself a few years ago, when he played for Leeds United for the first time and was thrilled to learn that he would be travelling with the team to Old Trafford to take on Manchester United.

Think about it, this time flies so fast, four or five years have passed in a blink of an eye, he was still a young player at Sporting Lisbon at the time, who would have thought that he would start from Ajax in the Eredivisie and move to the Red Devils Manchester United, he himself became the banner of Manchester United, and the most glorious time of his career also started from Manchester United.

Jonker, of course, remembers that United manager Alex Ferguson had said he would not transfer to himself. The old man, who has always insisted on his opinion, reversed his original decision this time. Of course, it turned out that the old man was absolutely right to do so!

"God must have heard your prayers." Jonk thought about the past and said to Macheda with a smile. He saw his own yesterday in Macheda.

Macheda was still a little shy, but still very confident, and he said with a look of antithesis, "If I can play, I will definitely take my chance." ”

Jonk smiled and said, "Good luck." Then he joked, "We're big ahead of Arsenal, I'm going to fake an injury and you'll be able to play." ”

Several of the players in the bus laughed. Macheda's face flushed, and he didn't know what to say.

It's always fun to 'flirt' newcomers, and that's the same everywhere.

Speaking of which, Macheda is not a newcomer, he has made appearances in the first team and is the leading scorer for Manchester United's under-18 team, and has already attracted the attention of the all-pervasive English media.

The British media almost dug up a single Qiē of the Italian prodigy, including Manchester United buying him for only 35,000 pounds, including his weekly salary of only 1,000 pounds. Including the fact that he likes to play on Facebook, including the Italian restaurant he frequents.

After Ferguson announced the squad for this game, after learning that Macheda was in the squad, the excitement was not only Manchester United fans and the British media. There are also Italian media, whether it is Milan Sport, Roma Sport or Torino Sport, as much as their British counterparts are looking forward to Macheda.

It's clear that Italian phenom Macheda is the perfect way for the British to rise to prominence with football.

Macheda comes from a poor family. Originally, three meals became a worry, but it depended on hard work. Caught the attention of Alex Ferguson and came to Manchester United. And because of the watch in the youth team, he got the opportunity, if he can seize the opportunity, he can become famous and quickly become a star, which is just like the plot of the famous football movie "One Goal to Fame".

Of course, for the media and fans, Jonker's fame is the most classic "One Goal Fame", but, look at Jonker's current height, although he is less than 24 years old, but Jonk is destined to become a legendary star, and even has the meaning of being deified, Macheda is not, he has not yet become famous, which just satisfies the media's habit of 'cultivating too much'.

Jonker: They were talking about the upcoming game, and on the Arsenal bus, the players were talking about the game.

"In today's game, I'm going to keep a clean sheet against Jonker, boys, you learn a little bit." Garras grinned widely.

Hearing Gallas say this, the other people's faces changed slightly, no one said anything, speaking of which, although Gallas is the captain of the team, however, it really did not get much support from the players, Wenger has previously appointed Vieira and Henry as the captain of the team, both of whom are doing quite well, which Cheng wants to be Gallas's turn, this Frenchman is a bit muddy and can't support the wall.

This is not to say that Gallas is a soft egg, but Gallas seems to be very domineering, for other players of Arsenal, especially newcomers like Nasri, and youngsters like Theo Walcott are always arrogant, and they are full of 'big brother style' everywhere, but it just arouses the disgust of young people. In the Arsenal team, only Adebayor is a close friend of Gallas.

At this time, Silvestre, a veteran who joined Arsenal from Manchester United for free in the summer, cautiously reminded Gallas, who looked bullish, and said: "William, don't underestimate Jonker, you have played against him more than once, you should know that his skills are very good, he is fast, and he is very threatening, so you must not be careless about him." ”

Sylvester doesn't say that it's okay for Gallas to fight with Jonk many times, in that case, Gallas may still be able to listen, after all, Sylvester is also French, and he is Gallas's predecessor, but now that he heard Sylvester say this, Gallas thought that Sylvester was satirizing the past when he was teased by Jonk in his previous game with Jonck, and Gallas's face immediately changed, "I know how to prevent Jonk, you can rest assured." ”

Sylvester was stunned as he listened to Gallas then shake his head and say, "The best way to defend Jonker is to keep him from touching the ball." Isn't that enough. ”

Sylvester sighed, 'Don't let Jonk touch the ball', this is indeed the way to freeze Jonk, but is it really that easy? He looked at the smug Garas, didn't know what to say, and simply shut up. Sylvester could also see that Gallas hadn't listened to him at all. But he didn't want to say anything more, although he was old. But that was at Manchester United. He made the move to Arsenal, where Silvestre has little status.

Moreover, this season, Arsenal's table is still very good, which is also inseparable from Gallas's excellent table, Gallas's self-confidence is inevitable, only after receiving a lesson from reality can he realize his position and pay more attention to himself in the game. Just keep an eye on the fill-in, Sylvester and Jonk used to be teammates, and they know much more about Jonk than these people, so I hope this can help me keep an eye on Jonk.

Sylvester stopped talking, and as for the other Saña and the others, they kept silent, and Gallas always reprimanded them with the posture of 'big brother', and after a long time, they were unwilling to deal with Gallas. lest you be reprimanded for being bored.

As for the players of the 'midfield gang' with Cesc Fabregas as the core, they were even more reluctant to talk to Gallas, and for a while, Da Bari was surprisingly silent.

No one noticed. Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger, who sat in the front row, frowned slightly, and he was clearly starting to notice that the atmosphere within the squad was a little abnormal.

Just as Manchester United arrived at the Emirates Stadium, the sky was cloudy. Finally the rain fell, and it was not light at first. There was no foreplay at all, and I entered gaochao. It looks like a heavy rain is inevitable, but in other words, Manchester United's highlight match against Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium will be a rain battle, which adds a lot of variety.

At this time, the Emirates Stadium is basically full, and there are still empty seats, of course, it is not that the tickets have not been sold, it is estimated that those fans are rushing to the stadium, because the Arsenal club has already announced that the tickets for this game have long been sold out.

To the delight of Arsenal fans, there was also a small episode in the highlight of the game, as Arsenal fans have been informed that their idol, the team's legendary captain Adams, will be playing in this game, of course, not in the game, Adams is just a symbolic kick-off for the game.

Arsenal Club's approach has also been recognized by the FA, in the FA's view, although this is a bit unruly, but in this world-renowned game, there is such a small episode is not unavoidable, besides, Adams, as the former captain of Arsenal, also has many fans in England, and he came to kick off the game, which also has a special significance.

This can also increase the attention of the game even more, although there is a suspicion of hype, but it is a good thing. It's about support. As long as it can expand its impact and profitability for the Premier League, it will do.

In the VIP box of the Emirates Stadium, those VIP celebrities also appeared one after another, because the players were still in the locker room and had not yet played, so the broadcast camera was also aimed at the VIP seats.

People saw the celebrities they were familiar with.

Inter Milan manager Jose Mourinho sat there, looking down at something in his notebook, as if he had already started working.

The wives of Arsenal and Manchester United also appeared in the stands, but to the disappointment of the media, there was no figure of Jonker's girlfriend Nana, who had previously said that Nana was very busy when he returned to South Korea to develop his acting career, and would not come to London to watch the game.

The camera shows Kelly in the city of the sexiest women in England. Brooke's figure, in the box next door, also saw Ji Li. Hazel, however, surprisingly, Ashleycole's wife Cheryl also appeared in the VIP box, Ashleyker has now moved to Chelsea in the summer, and has been reprimanded as a traitor by Arsenal fans, and it is not known who Cheryl came to the scene today to cheer for.

Prince William, Britney Spears, Emma, who became famous for playing Hermione in "Harry Potter". Watson, F1 driver Hamilton...... In the VIP stands, it can be said that celebrities gathered.

Sky TV will naturally broadcast the match between Manchester United and Arsenal live, and Lineker is giving the fans in front of the stadium and television background information on the game: "This will be the 199th meeting between the two sides in history, with an overall record of 86 wins, 46 draws and 67 defeats. In the 182 league meetings, Manchester United won 74, drew 42 and lost 66, judging from the history of previous meetings, Manchester United has a slight advantage, however. At Arsenal's home stadium, Manchester United's record is not as good as they are at home. Last season, Manchester United lost at the Emirates Stadium. That game also saw Manchester United eventually withdraw from the league title race. ”

"The biggest attraction for Arsenal in this game is the French midfielder Nasri, who joined in the summer, has scored eight goals for Arsenal in all competitions in the new season, including five goals in the league, he is now in hot form, Nasri also said before the game that it is his dream to score Manchester United's goal."

'For Manchester United, Jonker will be back after a week's injury absence. Whether he can continue his red-hot form will be key to Manchester United's victory from the Emirates Stadium. In addition, we got the news that Owen was injured in training and Alex. Sir Alex Ferguson has already recruited young Italian striker Macheda into the squad, and Macheda's availability depends on the actual situation of this game. ”

At this time, the camera camera focused on the face of a middle-aged man in the stands, and the fans at the scene let out a burst of cheers, and the live broadcaster said excitedly: "Tony. Adams. Arsenal's great captain, forever 'Mr. Arsenal'! He'll be back on the pitch today, and it's time for our captain's 'debut' at the Emirates Stadium. Let's welcome the captain with the warmest applause! ”

Tony. Adams stood up and waved to the crowd as he walked onto the pitch once the game began. Kick off for today's game. Seeing Adams waving, he was greeted by an almost frantic cheer from the fans. Some veteran fans can't help but have blurred their eyes when they think of the years when their captain rode the pitch. Wipe the corners of your eyes.

The camera walks around the VIP box, Manchester United owner George. It was also the first time that Manchester United's American owner had visited the Emirates Stadium to watch a game.

Subsequently, there were 2 figures in the camera, these 2 people may be very strange to many people, but people in the football circle know that these three are the twin giants of Arsenal in the world, the one on the left is Usmanov, the chairman of the red and white company, the Uzbek owns 24% of Arsenal's shares, and the one in the middle is the American Kroenke, which is an unfamiliar name, but if you talk about the NBA Nuggets, there will not be too many people who are unfamiliar, Kroenke is the owner of the Nuggets, In addition, he has a baseball team, a rugby team, and owns about 12.5% of Arsenal. The rest of the shares are in the hands of British conservatives, who are not willing to sell them.

However, according to the rules, when one of these shareholders has more than 30% of the shares, it will be able to fully acquire Arsenal. Therefore, the media also reported that Usmanov and Kroenke are interested in buying shares from each other, in order to meet the 30% standard, and then buy Arsenal in full.

This game was not only attended by fans from both sides, but also by some foreign fans, and of course, it was quite difficult to get a ticket.

There were still more than 20 minutes before the game started, and most of the foreign fans at the scene picked up their cameras and mobile phones to take pictures, and the atmosphere of the scene made the fans who experienced this heavyweight game for the first time extremely excited.

The rain is getting heavier, but fortunately the drainage system at the Emirates Stadium is good and the game should not be postponed due to the heavy rain.

The Arsenal fans chanted duets and with five or six minutes to go, when the players from both sides were about to enter the pitch, they began to chant the names of every Arsenal player, Fabregas and Theo Walcott could be heard cheering the loudest, and summer signing Nasri was also loved by the fans.

The fans just finished shouting, at this time, the players entered the field, the players of the home team entered first, the big screen began to release the player's number and player avatar, the on-site commentator shouted the surname of each player, the fans followed to complete the name, and then there was a round of warm applause.

Arsenal starting line-up (4-4-2): Goalkeeper: 01-Almunia; Defenders: 03-Sagna, 10-Galla, 18-Silvestre, 22-Klich; Midfielders: 02-Diaby, 04-Cesc Fabregas, 08-Nasri, 15-Denilson; Forwards: 14-Walcott, 26-Bendtner; After Arsenal's last starter came out of the tunnel, the United players lined up, but they were greeted by earth-shattering boos, especially Jonker, who was so loud that they couldn't even be heard face-to-face when the commentator called his name.

In fact, Jonker has no grudge against Arsenal fans, and he has not said anything insulting to Arsenal, but given that Jonk is Manchester United's top scorer and is faintly the current banner of Manchester United, Arsenal fans must of course boo him.

Manchester United also played in a 442 formation: goalkeeper: 1-Van der Sar; Defenders: 22-O'Shea, 15-Vidic, 5-Ferdinand, 3-Evra; Midfielders: 4-Hargreaves, 11-Giggs, 17 Nani, 18-Scholes; Forwards: 10-Jonker, 9-Rooney; In this game, the English FA also attaches great importance to it, and specially appointed the golden whistle Webber to enforce the law, and after Bol announced the end of the whistle, Webber is the first person in the English refereeing circle.

At 12:45, with Webber's whistle, the 200th duel between Arsenal and Manchester United began. Arsenal legend captain Tony. Adams made a symbolic kick-off for the game, and he was greeted with a standing ovation from the crowd.

As soon as the game began, Arsenal took advantage of the home advantage to launch a fierce attack on Manchester United's half, with Walcott, Cesc Fabregas, Nasri and Bendtner attacking Manchester United's goal like fierce beasts.

Ferguson has long been prepared for Arsenal's onslaught after the opening, and he also told the team before the game that the first 15 minutes of the game will be the most difficult time of the game, during this time, the team can even give up attacking, return to defense in all directions, and then attack slowly after relieving his breath.

However, today's heavy rain has also had a big impact on Arsenal, if there is no heavy rain, maybe Arsenal can use their smooth and fast coordination to gain the upper hand, suppress Manchester United near their own penalty area, and use fast short passes to create a killing opportunity, but unfortunately this sudden heavy rain has disrupted Arsenal's plans, in the rain, Arsenal's passing accuracy has decreased, errors have increased, the speed of passing with the ball has decreased, and the efficiency of the attack has also decreased a lot.

Manchester United was also unable to organize a more effective counterattack, and the two sides began to gradually focus on the midfield scramble, and all of a sudden, the scene of people turning on their backs continued to appear. In less than 10 minutes, all the players' jerseys were stained with mud.

It's really ugly.

Jonk finally received a pass from Scholes, he stepped on the ball on the spot, trying to dribble past Fabregas, but Fabregas pulled behind him, and Jonker immediately fell on all fours.

The ball fell to Ryan Giggs and Webb signaled for the attack to help the game continue.

Ryan Giggs hoisted the ball into the penalty area, Gallas grabbed in front of Nani to push the ball out, Rooney padded his chest, and it was a direct long-range shot, but his foot slipped, and the shot was really outrageous, and it hit the corner flagpole impartially, and the Arsenal fans immediately cheered.

Seeing that the offense was stopped, Webb also found Fabregas and verbally warned Fabregas of the foul action that had just pulled down Jonker.

Jonker was naturally dissatisfied, believing Cesc Fabregas deserved at least a yellow card, but Webb ignored his protests.

Seeing Fabregas smirk, Jonk glared at the other party, and Fabregas smiled even more happily.

Almunia throws the ball in his hand and attacks.

Gallas knocked the ball to Diaby, who came back to pick it up, Jonker immediately came up and pressed it, Diaby knocked back, and Klich took two steps and drove the ball forward with a big foot.

Seeing Klich kick wide, Arsene Wenger on the sidelines frowned slightly.

Today's heavy rain is really terrible, on such a field, it is not easy for Arsenal, which focuses on short passing and fast advancement, to organize an effective attack, there is a lot of water in the field, there are often mispasses when passing, and players will also slip accidentally when receiving the ball.

In this case, once there is a mistake and it is counterattacked by the opponent, it will be very fatal, so both sides should be careful to avoid mistakes. (To be continued......)
