Chapter 1064 Sun Hai's Request

Tottenham Hotspur forced a 0-0 draw in the first round of the league, which is not good news for Manchester City, especially in the reports of those sloppy media, it seems that the collapse of Manchester City is just around the corner.

It makes sense for the media to say this, because Manchester City's next opponent is Liverpool.

As a traditional strong team in England, although Liverpool did not perform very well last season, in everyone's eyes, a lean camel is bigger than a horse, and Liverpool is still a difficult opponent.

Moreover, in the first round of the league, Liverpool lost 0:1 to Aston Villa in the away game. Their fighting spirit in the second round will definitely be stronger than that in the first round, and they will definitely want to beat Manchester City.

Under such circumstances, if Manchester City still lacks motivation, even in their own home court, there is a high possibility that they will be dragged off by Liverpool.

After being criticized by Benitez, Rong Guang trained harder than ever.Everyone can see that there is a blazing flame around his body, which is the result of his fighting spirit being materialized...

It was also at this time that other Manchester City players knew for the first time Rongguang's determination to surpass Arsenal's record...

Before, I also knew that Rongguang had such a war with the media.

But everyone felt that it was just Rongguang fighting against the media. After a while, everyone would naturally forget about it. It is not impossible for Rongguang to really surpass Arsenal's record.

That's an unbeaten record of 49 league games!
If Rongguang wants to surpass Arsenal, it means that he must complete fifty consecutive unbeaten league games.

But how is this possible?

Moreover, Rong Guang never mentioned this matter in front of them, indicating that Rong Guang must not care about this matter.

but……

Unexpectedly, in his heart, he would never forget this matter!

He actually... wanted to challenge Arsenal's unbeaten record of 49 league games!

He is serious!
He is obviously ready, even if the other teammates are not strong enough, he will insist on accomplishing this goal.

On the day before the game against Liverpool, after Manchester City's last training session before the game, all players except Rong Guang finished training and went back to the dressing room to take a shower and change clothes.

At this moment, Sun Hai, the team's third captain, suddenly stood up from his seat.

"Hey, everyone, I have something to say to everyone."

Seeing that the Chinese player who was always smiling but kept silent in the locker room suddenly took the initiative, everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at him strangely.

"I think you have seen Rong's recent training status, right?" Sun Hai said straight to the point. "I think everyone should know why he trains so hard. It's not just because we didn't win the last game, but because he still has a very ambitious goal in his heart. Based on what I know about her, I think he will never stop until he completes that goal."

Sun Hai looked around and continued: "When Rong had this idea at the beginning, I discussed with him whether we should tell everyone about it. After all, the undefeated league is not his business alone, and the team's victory is not something he can decide alone. But Rong didn't let me do this, because Rong didn't want to put too much pressure on you. He said that challenging Arsenal was his own idea, and you shouldn't be burdened with pressure that doesn't belong to you. So until now, he hasn't told you enough, he's just himself. People are working towards this goal. Now I ask everyone."

Speaking of this, Sun Hai looked around his teammates again, this time he paused for a longer time, his eyes lingered on everyone's faces, watching their expressions, their eyes.

After looking at everyone, he said again: "I ask everyone to do Rong a favor. In many cases, he helped us. When we needed help, he never refused. He has put too much pressure on himself that does not belong to him. Now he needs our help. We are a whole. The honor of being undefeated in the league belongs to the team, so the responsibility and pressure should also belong to each of us. Part of the job, isn't it?"

Sun Hai spread his hands and said, looking at everyone.

"Of course, this is all my personal request. It's just my request. The final decision is still in your hands. I'm done talking."

After speaking, Sun Hai sat back and began to pack his backpack silently, preparing to leave.

A group of people looked at each other in blank dismay, and there was no sound in the locker room for a long time.

Until Sun Hai left the locker room, he didn't hear any response from his teammates, but he felt that there was only so much he could do.That's all he can help Rong Guang, and he can't help with many other things.

Undefeated in the league, what he can do as a substitute is also very limited.If he is the main force, and he is also an important member of the team, he may not come to ask everyone at all, and he will work hard with Rong Guang in silence.

※※※

Ibrahimovic listened silently to Sun Hai's words in the locker room, and only then did he realize that he really didn't know enough about Rongguang before...

He originally thought he knew this opponent well, but after coming to Manchester City, he refreshed his understanding of Rongguang almost every day.

This kid... actually wants to carry the entire team on his shoulders, and then challenge the great record created by the entire team alone!

It's just... crazier than me!
Zlatan Ibrahimovic snorted, then got up and walked to the bathroom.

※※※

Rong Guang, who was immersed in training, didn't know what happened in the locker room during his training.

When he returned to the locker room, as usual, it was empty.He showered alone in the shower, changed by himself, and then closed the door and left, wrapping up another day of training.

In his opinion, the unbeaten record of fifty league games is actually very simple, nothing more than dividing these fifty games into fifty steps.

If you want to complete the record, you just need to take every step and win every game.

The next game is against Liverpool, then do your best to play against Liverpool and win them.

In this way, 21/[-] of the task progress has been completed, and there are only [-] games left.

From this point of view, this record is not so unattainable and unattainable.

※※※

The away game against Manchester City is also very critical for Liverpool.

Current Liverpool manager Dalglish is under a lot of pressure after a surprise first-game loss to Aston Villa.

Although the Liverpool club declared that they were on the side of Dalglish, this did not reduce the pressure on Dalglish.

His pressure comes from his demands on himself.

As a legend of Liverpool, he cannot allow himself to be lost at the end of the season.

In this game, Liverpool must beat Manchester City to get the team back on track.

Manchester City has been in poor form recently, and this is an opportunity for him.

Last season, Liverpool may have been the team with the best record against Manchester City in the Premier League - they lost at home, but drew with Manchester City away, and at least got a point.

As for other teams, whether it is Arsenal, Manchester United or Chelsea, their two encounters with Manchester City in the league ended in failure.

Looking at it this way, it is not a spoof to say that Liverpool is the team with the best results.

※※※

The next day, the game came as scheduled.

曼城和利物浦的比赛是第二轮联赛里最后进行的一场比赛。在此之前所有的比赛都踢完了。阿森纳在主场6：0大胜布莱克浦，上轮联赛逼平了曼城的托特纳姆热刺在客场2：1击败了斯托克城，切尔西同样6：0客场击败了维冈竞技，而曼联则在客场被富勒姆2：2逼平。

After the two league rounds, Chelsea turned out to be the only team that won both rounds.In the first round of the league, they defeated West Bromwich Albion 6-0 at home.

Two games, two 6:0, [-] goals scored in two games, no goals conceded yet.

This kind of performance is completely different from their performance in the League Cup. It is in stark contrast to Manchester City. Manchester City performed well in the Community Shield Cup, but they are in a sluggish state in the league.

This situation can't help but remind people of the so-called curse of the Community Shield Cup in the past. Is this curse coming out again recently?
With the other games in the second round over, all eyes are now on Manchester City and Liverpool.

Are defending champions Manchester City's form getting better, or is it getting worse?

Can Dalglish reverse the decline facing Liverpool.

Let football reveal the answer.

※※※

Before this game, everyone believed that Rong Guang would continue to be the protagonist, and he would be the one who decided the outcome of the game. Whether his state is good or not will directly affect whether Manchester City will score three points or zero points in the end.

But it wasn't him who broke the deadlock for the game.

But Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

The Swedish tower received the ball when Manchester City was attacking. At that time, he was about 36 meters away from the goal.

A centre-forward receives the ball in this position and Liverpool players think he will pass the ball.

Ibrahimovic did make a fake move to pass the ball, but after deceiving Skrtel in front of him, he suddenly shot from the spot!
The football is not high, and it ran forward close to the ground, directly piercing Liverpool's defense, and went towards the far post of the goal!

Liverpool's goalkeeper, Reina, pounced on the football, but he felt that the ball was most likely to go straight wide of the goal.Because Ibrahimovic's shot was too hasty...

He didn't even have a run-up, it's already good to be able to hit the strength, and he still wants to score?
But just as he was thinking this way, the football fell to the ground in front of him, and then bounced forward, even faster!

Reina missed the ball!
And the football rubbed against the inside of the goal post and got into the goal!
"The ball..." John Mortensen was stunned for a moment before reacting and raised his arms and shouted. "The goal is scored! The goal is scored! Ibrahimovic! Oh oh oh! Unbelievable world wave! When everyone focused on Rong, Ibrahimovic suddenly broke out! His state in the last league game was mediocre, but in this game he washed away the stigma he received in the last game from this ball!"

No one expected that Manchester City's lead would come so inadvertently!
