Chapter 828 The Right Way
In the second half of the game, facing Newcastle who had no fighting spirit, Manchester City did not show mercy. They still firmly controlled the game.

In the No.604 minute, after receiving a cross from his teammate in the penalty area, Rong Guang scored with a header and Manchester City led 3:0.

"Rong! This is his No. 18 league goals this season! He is far ahead in the league scorer list! No one can pose a threat to him! Regardless of Manchester City's own performance, Rong's state is always very good. It's just that in the first half of the season, no matter how good his individual performance is, he can't save the team. But in the second half of the season, when Benitez gradually took control of the team, we saw changes...Rong's performance is still outstanding, and Manchester City also benefited from his outstanding performance-until now, we can say, Rong And Manchester City really began to combine. In the past, it always felt that Rong was Rong, and Manchester City was Manchester City. The two of them were separate..."

After Rong Guang scored the goal, the cheers in the stands grew louder.

No matter when, Rong Guang is the person that Manchester City fans will always trust. No matter how the team's state fluctuates, Rong Guang will not.

After Rong Guang's goal, Newcastle United had basically given up resistance, fell behind by three goals, and had no advantage on the field, could not see any hope of winning, so why are they dying?

Newcastle United lost their fighting spirit, and Manchester City also slowed down appropriately.

Until the end of the game, Manchester City scored another goal, this time it was Petrov who came off the bench.

This ball is the icing on the cake.

In the end, Manchester City defeated Newcastle United 4-0 at home.

After winning this game, Manchester City has won three consecutive victories in the league.

This is the second time this season. The last time was when Mark Hughes led the team. It was the best time for Manchester City. The three-game winning streak also made Mark Hughes think that he could continue to coach Manchester City...

In the end, I didn't expect Mark Hughes to escape the bad luck of getting out of class.

After a home win over Newcastle United, City moved up two places and are now ninth.

Manchester City is slowly returning to the upper middle of the league.

From the relegation zone to the mid-range, it is only a matter of three league games. Now in the media, no one has questioned or ridiculed Benitez's coaching of Manchester City.It is also almost impossible to see anyone talking about the 2005 Champions League final defeat.

Inside the team, many players are also convinced of Benitez's ability.

Even if they don't watch the game, just watch the training, Manchester City's players feel that Benitez is much better than Mark Hughes.

At this time, the money Manchester City spent last summer seemed to make sense...

※※※

After Manchester City got on track, in the next league away game, they beat Stoke City 1-0, and Rong Guang scored the only goal of the game, helping Manchester City win the league for four consecutive victories.

However, the team's ranking has not changed.

But everyone sees hope.

You know, when the team performed best in the first half of the season, they only won three consecutive victories, but now they have won four consecutive victories!

Everyone can see the changes in Manchester City. After Benitez took office, he kneaded the team together and achieved what Mark Hughes failed to do.Now Manchester City fans have even begun to look forward to a major reversal in the second half of the season for Manchester City...

Now think about what Rong Guang and Benitez said... The goal is to qualify for the European competition next season, which is at least the top five in the league.Following this trend... Maybe it will be possible to achieve it by the end of the season!

Even if it's just a qualification for the UEFA Cup, that's great!

In the fifth round of League No.20, Manchester City defeated Middlesbrough 3:1 at home, and Rong Guang scored another goal.

After Manchester City won this game, they finally won ten games this season, equal to their losses.

But Manchester City haven't lost for a while.

Five consecutive victories in the league!
After this league game, the media throughout England are paying attention to Manchester City's five consecutive league victories.

Counting the two FA Cup games, this is already Manchester City's seven consecutive victories in all competitions.

"...Manchester City is winning consecutive victories, their league points are also rising, and their ranking is improving. Now they are ranked seventh in the league. When Mark Hughes led the team, they once reached this ranking. At that time, everyone thought that Manchester City was on the right path... But now we can confirm that they have spent half a season, and finally found the real right path this time!"

"...Manchester City are running all the way. It doesn't matter how fast they are. What matters is whether they are running on the right path. Otherwise, the faster they go, the farther they will go. Now it seems that they have finally found the right path...still focusing on the core of the attack, but Benitez's tactical thinking is much clearer than Mark Hughes. At the same time, the most important thing is that Benitez's tactics clearly defined the roles of Berbatov and Robinho, which inspired these two offensive players and made Manchester City no longer just one. People are struggling to support..."

"Benitez's level is indeed better than Mark Hughes. At least Benitez has coached in a wealthy team and has the experience of successfully winning championships. When he was in Valencia, he led the team to two league championships and a UEFA Cup. He did a good job in Liverpool. If it wasn't for the Champions League, he should have gained more support in Liverpool... It is said that the management of the Manchester City club trusts him very much and tries to meet his requirements. Manchester City really has more room to flex their fists than Liverpool..."

"Manchester City's changes are really amazing... Benitez won all the games in January that just ended, and he won the best coach of the Premier League last month because of this... There is no problem. In the entire Premier League, in addition to leading Manchester City to a complete victory, what he brought to Manchester City is not just a winning streak..."

Benitez's name was repeatedly mentioned again, and this time it was mentioned again, but it was no longer a laughing stock.

※※※

After the game against Middlesbrough, Manchester City ushered in the FA Cup again, this time in the quarter-finals of the FA Cup. If Manchester City can beat their opponent Aston Villa, they will break into the quarter-finals of the FA Cup.

Aston Villa is Manchester City's first opponent this season. In Rongguang's comeback battle, they played the role of green leaves very well, setting off the glory of Rongguang's comeback.

At that time, they also underestimated the enemy against Manchester City, resulting in a three-goal loss to Manchester City at home.

They have made full preparations for this game, and they have formulated special defensive tactics against Rongguang, Robinho and Berbatov...all of them.

But in the face of the Manchester City team in excellent form, their arrangements are useless.

In the FA Cup match, Rongguang kicked his head and scored twice, leading Manchester City to eliminate Aston Villa 3:1 and break into the quarterfinals of the FA Cup.

After playing the FA Cup, Manchester City will usher in Liverpool in the league.

They are going to Anfield to challenge the current second-ranked team in the Premier League and Benitez's former club.

Everyone knew that Benitez left Liverpool, so the media also defined this game as a "battle of revenge".Either Glory's revenge, or any other player's revenge, or Benitez's.

Before the team did not win the Champions League, the top management of the Liverpool club had always been worried about this matter. Until the 2007-2008 season, they issued an ultimatum to Benitez, requiring him to lead Liverpool to the Champions League that season.

Everyone knows who the Champions League champion will be in that season.Manchester United beat Chelsea on penalties on a rainy night in Moscow for Cristiano Ronaldo.

Benitez had a complete fallout with the Liverpool club. He announced his resignation after the end of the season and quit.

Liverpool recruited the famous Kenny Dalglish. Under his leadership, Liverpool played well, always ranked in the top two, and even hoped to compete for the league title.Benitez has been at home all the time. Although there were "scandals" between him and Real Madrid and Juventus during the period, he didn't go anywhere in the end.

Until he came out again to coach Manchester City.

When Benitez left Liverpool, the club executives didn't want to see him, and the Liverpool players didn't speak up for him. Except for Torres, Spanish players like Arbeloa and Alonso, no one else said anything.

So it is impossible to say that Benitez has no resentment towards Liverpool at all...

He must want to prove to his former club that he is doing well.

In what way can this be proved?
Of course it led Manchester City to beat Liverpool!
And beat Liverpool at Anfield!

※※※

For Liverpool, it can barely be regarded as a "battle of revenge".

Liverpool is currently ranked second in the league with 55 points, seven points away from Manchester United's 62 points. The gap is relatively large, but it does not mean that there is no hope of winning the championship.They will definitely continue to work hard.

Although the ranking is lower than Manchester United, the points are also less than Manchester United.But there is one thing, Liverpool is better than this sworn enemy, and that is the number of games lost.

Top-ranked Manchester United have lost two games so far this season, while Liverpool have lost just one.

If it weren't for them to draw too much, the position of the league's first and status might change a little.

The only game Liverpool lost was thanks to Manchester City, or to be precise, thanks to glory.

In the seventh round of the first half of the league, Manchester City played against Liverpool at home.

Things had turned bad for City at the time, having not won since their two-game winning streak at the start of the season.There are rumors that Mark Hughes will be dismissed if he fails to win Liverpool.

Before the game, no one thought that Liverpool would lose to Manchester City, and Mark Hughes' dismissal was already a certainty.

Unexpectedly, there was a big explosion in the glory of that game. He scored three goals in the game and completed his second hat-trick after coming to Manchester City.

This hat trick also helped Manchester City win at home!
Liverpool's unbeaten season came to an end.

So in this game, if Liverpool wants to seek revenge from Manchester City, it must be because of this reason...

But with the current state of Manchester City, I am afraid that this revenge will not be easy to avenge, even in Liverpool's own home court...
