Chapter 1047 Mourinho who lifted the gunman myth

Since Manchester United and Arsenal both achieved decisive victories in the first round of the Champions League, the league, which was regarded as a tasteless match, suddenly became important because Manchester United and Arsenal were sandwiched between the two semi-finals. The battle will be a preview of the Champions League final.The media believes that the two teams can use this league to get a feel for their opponents.

However, to the disappointment of the reporters and the media, Ferguson and Wenger are both veterans. They don't want to be seen by their opponents in such an insignificant game. Although they have played for hundreds of years, they have no secrets. to speak of.

In the league game held on the 30th, both Manchester United and Arsenal sent substitutes and youth team players. Arsenal played two or three main players at any rate, and Manchester United basically played as the second team.

However, for Arsenal, this is a rare opportunity. They can completely defeat Manchester United without using the main lineup and Li Huan, and maintain a record of victory for the team. With an underdog like Stoke City, in this way, Arsenal is very likely to complete a magical record of winning all seasons.

Although it was a completely irrelevant game, due to the miscalculation of the media before the game, there were a lot of reporters and fans during the game. The Emirates Stadium was full for the first time in recent games, and the young players of the two teams also I was very excited and played in full swing, but in the end Arsenal, who still had the advantage at home, finally beat Manchester United 2:1, completing the double play against Manchester United this season.

After this game, Arsenal focused all their thoughts on the second round of the Champions League semi-final. Although the away game won 3:1, there is no precedent for a comeback in the history of the Champions League, but Arsenal still dare not To the effect, their opponent is none other than Mourinho, the madman who is known as the second god. Although Mourinho is called a madman, he did not get his reputation by relying on madness. His reputation is actually accumulated by champions After all, although the possibility of promotion is very small, according to Mourinho's character, he will never give up.

In addition, Real Madrid was the best club in the world in the last century. They won 9 Champions League titles and produced countless superstars. Now they are called the second phase of the Galaxy Battleship because they bought a lot of superstars. Will give up easily. Although Arsenal have scored more goals than Manchester United in the away game, it is even more difficult for Arsenal to advance.

As the most famous club in the world, Real Madrid has no intention of giving up. They have just washed away the shame of the 16-year-old in the Champions League. Now their confidence has not disappeared. They think they still have the ability to complete the feat of comeback. Neo’s red card was cancelled. Mourinho was expelled to the stands by a red card last time. He still has no way to command the game on the spot. Real Madrid must get their coach out. It is difficult for a team without a coach to win. It is even more impossible to win a super team like Arsenal.

In fact, after the semi-final with Arsenal, Real Madrid made a complaint like UEFA, saying that Mourinho did not intend to attack the referee, he wanted to dissuade his own players. As for what Mourinho said, Real Madrid argued that, Mourinho is of course very angry when a player is sent off. It is normal to say a few words, but Mourinho will never take the initiative to besiege the referee. He is not that stupid, and judging from his past coaching history , Mourinho has never done anything to attack the referee in public.

During the review process of UEFA, the madman did not sit still. Mourinho, who has always been arrogant, continued to explain what happened on the day of the game in the media. The madman and the club were on the same caliber. He didn't lead the players to besiege the referee. He wanted to prevent the players from doing such stupid things. As for UEFA's lip-syncing of his insulting the referee, Mourinho thought it was human nature. After his main players were sent off Under such circumstances, it is impossible for any coach to completely suppress the anger.

In addition to defending his actions that day, Mourinho also believed that the referee Stark was too strict in enforcing the law. Hold on, that's why Li Huan was shoveled, and Li Huan was not injured. Giving a red card is definitely a bit too strict. Even in terms of the law enforcement standards of the entire game, the penalty this time is questionable.

Mourinho also accused Li Huan of diving, because Li Huan rolled his head several times on the ground, looking like "a broken leg!" Pepe's determination.Mourinho admitted Pepe's foul, but Mourinho believes that Arsenal have benefited too much from it, which has exceeded the normal range.If Pepe is not sent off, it is not necessarily Arsenal who will win in the end. Even if Arsenal wins, they will not win more than 3 goals.

Arsenal also understands the important role of Mourinho to this Real Madrid. If there is no Mourinho in the second round, Arsenal will definitely play very easily. If there is Mourinho, Arsenal must be careful. , To prevent the cup from becoming the first team to be reversed in an away game 3:1.

When Real Madrid and Mourinho publicized UEFA, the British media also began to expose Mourinho's behavior at that time. The "Sun" sarcastically said that when Pepe was sent off, Mourinho was excited. Rushing into the field, did he want to thank the referee for failure? Mourinho also said that he was excited at the time, but would people rationally dissuade their players from doing stupid things when they were excited and angry?

The "Guardian" directly stated that Mourinho was deceiving UEFA. Mourinho has always been a person who only cares about results. O is trying to dissuade his disciples, "Guardian" hopes that UEFA will not be deceived by Mourinho, Mourinho's red card must not be canceled, and Pepe's red card cannot be cancelled.

However, Real Madrid and Mourinho's explanations were very effective. A week later, Mourinho's yellow card was cancelled. The statement given by UEFA is that Mourinho did not attack the referee at that time. It cannot be inferred that Mourinho had the intention of attacking the referee, so the red card issued by the referee Stark to Mourinho was an excessive sentence, but it cannot be canceled, but a one-match suspension can be waived.For Pepe's red card, UEFA believes that it must not be cancelled, because Pepe did not stop at that time.

The British media and Arsenal were surprised that Mourinho's red card was cancelled. Wenger said publicly, "I can't understand such a thing. I can't imagine a matter that has been well-documented and has already been judged. , if this can be done, I think it will seriously weaken the credibility of the referee, and the impact will be too bad.

Li Huan directly said in his column, "Welcome Mourinho to come to the Emirates Stadium again. Whether he is sitting on the coach's bench or directing from the stands, this Real Madrid should not be underestimated. We don't have to worry about these things. The important thing is to play our own style in the game. The score in the first round is very important to us. Now we can play with a relaxed mind.”

The British media expressed dissatisfaction with UEFA’s cancellation of Mourinho’s one-match suspension. Most of the British media believed that UEFA was helping Real Madrid. They did not want Arsenal to advance, so Mourinho was released. , mainly considering the issue of defending the title, UEFA hopes to leave a Champions League suspense. Even if Real Madrid can't block Arsenal's promotion, as long as they consume Arsenal's strength in the semi-finals, they can help another team advance to the final and reduce the possibility of Arsenal winning the championship.

However, the British media who are pro-Manchester United are happy to believe that even if Arsenal cannot defend the title, the Premier League can defend the title. No matter what UEFA plans or what dirty ideas it has, as long as both Manchester United and Arsenal reach the final, the ultimate beneficiary is Or the Premier League and English football. "

The first battle this time was between Schalke 04 and Manchester United. In the first round, Manchester United beat Schalke 2 0-04 in the away game. The second game was held at Old Trafford, and Manchester United was even more confident.

Different from the last time when they gained power and did not score, this time Manchester United gave the fans a reassurance early. They took the lead in the 26th minute. Gibson made a direct pass and Valencia scored with a single shot. There is only a matter of time left to advance to the final.

In the 32nd minute, Manchester United expanded the score. Anderson and Valencia cooperated on the right side. Gibson volleyed in the penalty area. Neuer made a save and the ball hit the inside of the post and entered the net.Manchester United 2:0, the total score became 4:0..

Then Schalke 04 realized their shame and were brave. Their Asian player Atsuto Uchida made a cross from the right, and forward Jurado scored from the penalty area.The total score became 4:1.
However, in the second half, Manchester United never gave Schalke 04 a chance. They put pressure on Schalke 04 fiercely, and Schalke 04 is also a bloody team. They did not show weakness and fought against Manchester United. In the end, relying on strength and home factors, Manchester United defeated Schalke 4 1:04 and advanced to the final with a total score of 6:1.

Manchester United's victory defeated Arsenal's best plans, but it also gave Arsenal more confidence. In the first round, they led more away games. If they don't score high, they only need to advance.The defeated Manchester United is waiting for them at the new Wembley stadium. As long as they solve Real Madrid, breaking the curse of no one defending is basically a certainty.

The game was held on the night of May 5th. Although the suspense of this game was not as great as the first round, nor was it as attractive as the first round, but this game also attracted countless fans and reporters. They want to share every victory in the defending process with Arsenal.
