Chapter 1173 Envy
After Manchester City beat Liverpool away, their record-tying became the focus of media reports.

Arsenal's name was repeatedly mentioned, and the media ran to ask Wenger what he thought of the matter.

In this regard, Arsenal coach Arsene Wenger has shown his aura as a world-class coach, which is completely different from the "North London Horn"'s small belly.

He said: "When we broke Nottingham Forest's record of 42 consecutive unbeaten games, Clough, who led Nottingham Forest to set the record, blessed us. I still remember his love and encouragement for Arsenal football. He is a true legend. Manchester City has done very well in the past year or so. They have overcome many difficulties. It is great to be able to complete 49 unbeaten games. It’s really a strong team in football today.”

And how did the "North London Horn" comment on this matter?
They kept silent.

George Allen dared not even speak.

There is nothing to say.

Of course, the fans of Manchester City will not let them go easily. In the message area of ​​the website of the "North London Horn", all Manchester City fans came to greet the messages of the mothers of all the members of the newspaper.

On social networks, the official account of the "North London Horn" and George Allen's personal account have been turned by Manchester City fans.

Netizens gave full play to their ingenuity and made up various jokes to mock George Allen and the "North London Horn" he worked for.

※※※

All attention is on City's 49-game unbeaten run in the league.

Under such circumstances, the midweek Champions League quarter-finals are not very important.

There is indeed nothing to pay attention to. In the first round, Manchester City defeated Real Madrid 3:1 in the away game, with three away goals and a total score of two.With Manchester City's current state, how could they be overturned by Real Madrid?

Just like the quarter-finals, after Manchester City defeated AC Milan 3-0 away in the first round, the second round directly lost suspense.In the end, the two sides played 0:0 in the second round, and Benitez also took the opportunity to practice the team's defense.

Even if Mourinho has all-powerful means, facing Manchester City away, I'm afraid he can only be at a loss.

Of course, Mourinho's performance before the game was still very tough.

"I won't give up and neither will my team. We're confident we can beat Manchester City away!"

Facts have proved that Mourinho's remarks are actually just words.

On Wednesday night, Real Madrid travel to Manchester City.

In this game, Benitez rotated a few positions. For example, he let Sun Hai start to replace Leighton Barnes, and let Godin replace Lucio.

However, he did not make any substitutions in the offensive lineup, and it was still the same main lineup.

Benitez is very clear that as long as the offensive lineup is still the strongest, then there is no fear of defensive problems, because Rong Guang and Zlatan Ibrahimovic will definitely score more goals than concede...

In the end, at his own home court, Manchester City defeated Real Madrid 2:1. Rongguang did not score, but he assisted two goals and helped Berbatov and Sneijder score.

Real Madrid's only goal was scored by Cristiano Ronaldo.

Although Kaka entered the starting list in this game, he still did not get the chance to come off the bench.

No matter how the situation on the court changes, it seems that it has nothing to do with Kaka.

Mourinho seems to be determined to punish Kaka who played for the national team with injuries.

At the end of the game, Kaka did not leave quickly. He stood on the sidelines and watched the Manchester City players celebrating their promotion to the semi-finals.

His eyes fell on Rong Guang.

Rong Guang was celebrating the victory with his teammates, he was smiling and happy, although it was not difficult for Manchester City to win this game.

When Rong Guang went to Manchester City, he angrily accused the other party of being self-deprecating, going to a team that was not even qualified for the UEFA Cup, let alone the Champions League.

Let's see the result now... Glory stayed dormant in Manchester City for a year. After returning to the Champions League, he led the team to the semi-finals of the Champions League.Another year later, he led the team to the Final Four for the second time in a row.

Such a performance can't be regarded as "self-willing to fall" anyway, right?

Which of the teams that have been able to reach the semi-finals for two consecutive years is not the best and well-known giant in European football?Generally, it is not easy for a non-rich team to enter the semi-finals of the Champions League, let alone for two consecutive years...

But Manchester City did it with a non-rich attitude.

Kaka looked at the glory celebrating the victory with his teammates, and felt a little sour in his heart - he was actually a little envious of the glory!
Suddenly, he saw Rong Guang suddenly cast his gaze towards him, he quickly lowered his eyelids, then turned and walked towards the passage.

Leaving Manchester City Stadium.

He was surrounded by dejected Real Madrid players on his way to the dressing room.

They looked sad because they were eliminated.

Especially his buddy Cristiano Ronaldo, the Portuguese simply burst into tears, his eyes were red and he bit his lip.

No one is willing to bear failure...

But what is more unbearable than failure is to be forgotten.

Kaka was deliberately forgotten by Mourinho.

He sighed softly.

Since last summer, some people have advised him to leave Real Madrid, especially after Mourinho made that statement, he is destined to not have any good fruit if he continues to stay in Real Madrid.

But at that time Kaka was still full of confidence in himself. He thought he could conquer Mourinho and make him realize his value.

The result is not.

Later, when he received a call from Rongguang, he rekindled his fighting spirit and wanted to impress Mourinho with his positive performance in training, didn't he say so?I like the kind of players who are serious about training.

But this rule does not work on Kaka.

No matter how hard Kaka performed in training, he could not attract the slightest attention from Mourinho.

He was disheartened, realizing that he would never get the chance he wanted at Real Madrid.

Whether he can start the game does not depend on his efforts in training, but on Mourinho's mood.

He is in a good mood, and he may still be able to get the chance to start.If he's in a bad mood, let alone start, he won't even have a chance to come off the bench!

Kaka began to seriously consider whether he should really leave the Real Madrid team after the end of this season.Even if this kind of departure is not what he wants, there is no other way. It is impossible for him to sit on the bench at the golden age of his 29-year-old career.

He needs to play, otherwise he won't be at the 2014 World Cup in his home country.

※※※

When Rong Guang was celebrating with his teammates, he always felt as if someone was staring at him.

He followed that feeling and found no one was looking at him except for Kaka's back who turned and left.

He felt a little strange.But he didn't take it seriously, turned around and continued to celebrate the victory with his teammates, and continued to thank the Manchester City fans in the stands.

The fans of Manchester City were really happy during this time. First, their team defeated Liverpool in the league and got No. 40 in nine consecutive unbeaten games. Then Manchester City defeated Real Madrid 2:1 at home, completely eliminated each other and won the ticket to the Champions League semi-finals.

Both the league and the Champions League go hand in hand, and Manchester City fans feel extremely happy.

And the next league game against Tottenham Hotspur will be a moment for Manchester City to make history.

The tickets for this game have already been sold out. Originally, there were not many tickets other than package tickets. These loose tickets have now been snatched up.Because everyone wants to be a witness and witness at this historical moment.

Before this game, Redknapp, the head coach of Tottenham Hotspur, praised Manchester City's performance: "It is very, very difficult to be able to complete 49 consecutive unbeaten games. Manchester City is doing very well..."

But at the same time, he also expressed his confidence: "We didn't come to Manchester to attend the celebration banquet. We will go all out in the game and beat Manchester City. This is not because we want to deliberately mess up Manchester City, but because we also need a victory."

After the start of this season, in the first round of the league, Manchester City challenged Tottenham Hotspur away.At that time they were drawn by Tottenham Hotspur.

0: 0.

Neither side scored a goal.

However, Manchester City's performance in that game was not good, and the whole team was no different from sleepwalking.

After that game, Benitez severely criticized all the players, not even the glory.

But if Tottenham Hotspur is still 0:0 with Manchester City's big brother this time, Manchester City will be willing to accept it, and Tottenham Hotspur will not do it...

Tottenham are coming to take the three points.

Because in the last round of the league, when everyone focused on the match between Manchester City and Liverpool, Chelsea unexpectedly lost 0:1 to Wigan Athletic at home.

Tottenham Hotspur narrowly beat Stoke City 3-2 at home.

Chelsea still has 58 points, while Tottenham Hotspur has become 54 points, and the difference between the two sides has narrowed to four points.

Tottenham Hotspur see hope of advancing to next season's Champions League qualifying.

This boosted their morale.

And in the league they lost to the likes of Wigan Athletic and Chelsea were knocked out by Manchester United in the quarter-finals of the Champions League.

After this barrage of blows, Chelsea chairman Roman Abramovich has lost patience with Carlo Ancelotti.

It is rumored that Ancelotti will be sacked by Chelsea after this game.

And who does Chelsea fancy as their head coach?

Now there are two candidates, one is Mourinho, who is also under tremendous pressure because he was eliminated in the Champions League, and the other is Manchester City's head coach Benitez.

Benitez's coaching achievements in Manchester City are obvious to all, but the media analyzed that unless Benitez has a mental illness, it is impossible to leave Manchester City, which is on the rise, and coach Chelsea, which is in a complicated situation.

In Manchester City, although sometimes it seems that his status is not as high as Rongguang, but he is at peace with Rongguang, and Rongguang will not dictate his coaching work.

The most important thing is... Manchester City has glory, does Chelsea have it?
