Chapter 810 A City Derby Without Glory

The matter of Rong Guang's absence from the same city derby quickly became the focus of everyone's discussion - after several days of fermentation, the discussion finally reached a climax at this moment.

Although there have been media reports that Rongguang is likely to miss the game before, everyone always takes it as a fluke. Some people think that this may be a strategy played by Mark Hughes-to make everyone think that Rongguang will miss the game. As a result, when the game was played, everyone discovered that Rongguang was on the pitch and beat Manchester United by surprise.

As long as Mark Hughes didn't announce the starting lineup for this game at the pre-match press conference, that glory will appear in the starting lineup in all likelihood.

But I didn't expect that Rongguang wasn't even on the big list...

That is definitely impossible to participate in the competition.

Did Rong's injury really affect his participation in the city derby?

For Mark Hughes, the home game against Manchester United is a very important game, although the club executives did not issue any ultimatum like last time.

But everyone knows that if they continue to lose, especially if they lose a game like the city derby, there will be no doubt that Mark Hughes will be dismissed from get out of class.

For such an important game, it stands to reason that as long as Rongguang's injury is not so serious that he cannot play at all, Mark Hughes will definitely arrange for him to play. After all, all he can rely on now is Rongguang.

Unexpectedly, Rong Guang really didn't make an appearance. Did Mark Hughes give up?Still feel that without glory, his team can also beat Manchester United?

If Rongguang is really unable to play at all, then why did the club's team medical team announce that Rongguang is fine?If it's okay, why can't you play?Or is Rong Guang's injury actually serious, but in order not to shake the morale of the army before such an important match as the city derby, the club's coaching staff and team medical staff chose to conceal the real information?
Rong Guang's injury seemed too confusing.

Newspapers, radio, television, and the Internet have all launched a big discussion on this matter.

There are also some noises, thinking that Rongguang knew that Manchester City could not beat Manchester United, so in order not to be ashamed, he simply cheated and avoided the game, so that when the team lost the game at home, he would not be responsible for the loss.

There are all kinds of voices, and people don't know what the truth is.

But some people have direct access to the truth...

Rongguang received a call from Klose after dinner.

"Is there anything wrong with your injury, Rong?" Klose's tone was concerned.

"No problem." Rong Guang replied.

"Oh, that's good, I thought your injury was getting worse..."

"No, it's nothing serious, I just need to rest for a while. This week, I spent half of the time training alone in the gym..." Rong Guang said.

"Well, I read the report. It's a pity that I can't participate in the derby. I still want to compete with you in the game..." Klose sighed.

"I think so too, but Brother Sun advised me not to play this game, so I can't help it..."

"Oh, it's his decision? Then you should listen to him." Klose had worked with Sun Fengyang in the training camp, so he knew exactly who Rong Guang was referring to as "Brother Sun".He admired Sun Fengyang's medical skills very much. Since it was Sun Fengyang who prevented Rong Guang from playing this game, he should really not play.

"But I still want to..."

"Don't think about it, there are at least two derbys in a season. You missed it now, and there will be another one in the second half of the season? So there is nothing to regret."

"But it's my first game after all... It's been too long to wait until the second half of the season..."

"Heavyweights are always the last to appear, so your first derby is so important, and it will be a little later, it's okay." Klose comforted Rong Guang.

This night, Rong Guang answered many calls from friends who were concerned about his injury, and Rong Guang had to repeat what he said to Klose over and over again.

No matter how many controversies and discussions there are in the outside world, it is a fact that Rongguang cannot participate in the Manchester City Derby.

On the second match day, Rong Guang still showed up at the Manchester City Stadium, but he came with Deborah, his son, and Sun Fengyang.

The four of them went straight into the VIP box.

Although he couldn't play the game, Rongguang chose to watch the game live, expressing his attitude of fighting side by side with the team in this way.

Mark Hughes must wish he wasn't just posturing though...

But let's be realistic...

In the final preparations before the game, Mark Hughes said to his players: "...the whole world is discussing the impact of Rong's absence on us. I think this is a great opportunity to prove that we can win without Rong!"

He clenched his fist and waved it.

Let your own words appear more powerful first.

In fact, in this game, the Manchester City players performed very well without glory.

Alan Hansen was amazed by the performance of the players during the game.

Because he believes that this Manchester City team is an international column, and many people only transferred to the team this summer.Do you expect such a group of people to have feelings for Manchester City and have a different feeling for the Manchester derby?How is that possible?
So even in the derby, Manchester City's performance is probably not much better.

But the actual performance is that Manchester City surprised Alan Hansen.

Manchester City players played very tenaciously without glory, but in comparison, Manchester United underestimated the enemy-the absence of glory made Manchester United think that they could easily defeat a chaotic "underdog".

Unexpectedly, the absence of Rongguang inspired the fighting spirit of the Manchester City players.

In a disadvantaged situation, they dealt with Manchester United for 81 minutes. It was not until No. 80 two minutes that Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney scored a goal.

However, this ball can be regarded as a complete death sentence for Manchester City-not that the Manchester City players are discouraged, but that there is too little time left for them. Manchester City's energy in this game is mainly on defense. Mark Hughes' plan is at least not to lose.So he didn't have much preparation for offense. Now he needs to attack, and there is not much time left for Manchester City. Manchester City's players don't know what to do...

In this way, in the last few minutes, Manchester City's players launched an offensive towards Manchester United's goal in desperation, but because these offensives lacked rules, it was difficult to threaten the goal guarded by Manchester United's goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar.

During this time, Rong Guang looked very nervous in the box.Deborah noticed that his hands had been clenched into fists, the knuckles were white.

His expression was very serious, so serious that it was a little hideous.

When he watched his teammates desperately trying to score a goal but couldn't get in, he wished he could rush down to help them.

Deborah looked at Rong Guang's fist, then reached out and gently covered his hand.

Rong Guang was a little surprised by this action, he looked down at Deborah's hand, and then turned to look at her again.

Deborah was watching the game, not him.

Finally, when the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, there were boos from the stands at Manchester City Stadium.

During the booing, Mark Hughes' face was very pale.

The boos were not for the players, but for the head coach.

He knew that his time in Manchester City was over.

After the 15th round of the league, Manchester City has only accumulated [-] points, and the ranking has dropped to No.[-], and it is only one step away from the relegation zone...

This is an absolutely unacceptable result for Manchester City, which invested 700 million pounds in the summer.

The boos from the stands were the death knell tolling for Mark Hughes...

After the match, Rong Guang let go of his hand. He leaned on the back of the chair and remained silent for a long time.

The current situation of Manchester City is so bad that he also doesn't know what to say.

Was it really wrong for him to choose to come to Manchester City?
Is he really unable to help Manchester City rise alone?

Could it be that Manchester City is a fool who can't afford it?

Is it just to let Kaka and the Swede see their own jokes?

Deborah said next to him: "The season is very long, and the performance at this time cannot represent the final result."

Rong Guang turned to look at him.

"Let's go, go home. Yaoyao is asleep." Deborah said.

Rong Guang looked at the son in her arms, sure enough, he was sleeping soundly in his mother's arms.

"The scene of this game is really dull..." Sun Fengyang next to him yawned, adding insult to injury.

"Will I be able to play in the next game, Brother Sun?" Rong Guang asked him.

"I can't give you an answer now, I need to check again. As long as there is no problem, you can play." Sun Fengyang said.

"I feel that my body is fine." Rong Guang said.

"It's not up to you, Rong." Sun Fengyang smiled, "I only believe in the test results."

Rong Guang sighed: "Okay, but I think the test results will also tell you that I'm ready."

Looking at Rong Guang who is so eager to participate in the competition, Sun Fengyang shrugged: "I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, Rong. There will always be times when you get angry like this. If you lose today, you will have a chance to win back later."

"Yeah." Rong Guang turned his head to look at the pitch. Manchester United players were celebrating their victory. Klose was hugging his new teammates. Although Klose didn't score a goal in this game, he put a lot of pressure on Manchester City's defenders to allow Rooney to score easily at the last moment.

He did a good job at Manchester United and Manchester United are doing very well today.

I can't just be compared like this!
At this moment, he suddenly noticed that on the court, there seemed to be a person shaking his fist towards him...

He took a closer look and found that he was indeed shaking his fist towards himself.

Or to be more precise, Rong Guang felt that he should be shaking his fist at him.

Because the man shaking his fist is... Cristiano Ronaldo.

The Portuguese boy who was very dissatisfied with himself at the beginning.

Is this showing off to yourself?

Rong Guang snorted through his nose, then looked away.

Write down this account for now, and save it for the next city derby.
