Grass roots glory

Chapter 960

Two reds and four yellows, their respective main midfielders were all sent off, and gang fights broke out twice on the scene.

The scene of this double red meeting is not insignificant, even a bit tragic, no matter for Manchester United or Liverpool.

But Manchester United still made a profit, at least the score was 3:0. Looking at the results alone, they won a complete victory.

As for Liverpool, they got nothing, and the only thing that could touch the fans was Gerrard's lost stare.

For Manchester United, this victory achieved two birds with one stone. Winning the double red will defend the honor of the Red Devils. This is just one of them.The more practical meaning is to clear a major competitor-the gap between them and Liverpool has been opened by [-] points, basically declaring that Liverpool can no longer threaten Manchester United.

Van Gaal, who was criticized a lot by the Manchester media on weekdays, suddenly turned around. He was called an idiot by the media and fans in the few games he blocked Zhou Tiancheng.
Van Gaal's post-match comments were very simple, and he only said two sentences: "Liverpool is just an ordinary but slightly difficult opponent. I would like to thank the players. They implemented the tactics I arranged very thoroughly."

These remarks are a bit cheap and good-looking. What the media want to hear is the tactical summary, especially the performance of the team's new aid Herrera. Generally speaking, he is still remarkable on the court. Facing the legendary Gera Germany, it is not easy for young people not to make mistakes.

The reporters wanted to hear how Van Gaal commented on the newcomer, but they only listened to Van Gaal's pretense.

The reporters didn't know how to ask Zhou Tiancheng. Van Gaal seemed a little unwilling to answer the question, but Zhou Tiancheng couldn't be left alone.

Or the Chinese reporter got an opportunity to divert the topic aside, and asked a question that had nothing to do with this game, or even with Manchester United: "Zhou Tiancheng, we are really very happy, the intensity of the Premier League is so intensive, your state It's still so good. This is the biggest guarantee for the Chinese team to participate in the Asian Cup... Speaking of which, the Asian Cup is not far away, and there is less than a month left, will you participate in the next game?"

Zhou Tiancheng didn't expect such a question to be thrown out suddenly. He subconsciously glanced at Van Gaal. Chef Fan's complexion changed very quickly, just like the weather in England. It was almost as if the Chinese reporter had just asked this question, and his complexion immediately changed from sunny to sunny. Yin, Zhou Tiancheng stared at him, he also turned his head, their eyes collided, he just raised his head at Zhou Tiancheng, the meaning was very simple, this is your business, it has nothing to do with me, you can figure it out.

At this moment, Zhou Tiancheng felt that he had been cheated by his own people. He suddenly picked up a hot potato and didn't pick it up or throw it away. He knew very well that Van Gaal actually wanted to see his own attitude.

"I will definitely participate. As for when to join the national team, is it too early to worry about it? You just need to know that I will definitely appear on the field in the first group match."

Fortunately, Zhou Tiancheng reacted quickly and played Tai Chi, but the eyes of many reporters present slightly lit up.

They still wanted to ask more, but Van Gaal didn't give them a chance. It was a bit regrettable, but Rogers, who came to the press conference later, mentioned this question again.

After a disastrous defeat, Rodgers' condition was not very good, his eyes were not bright, and his face was slightly pale, but when it came to the team's goals for the rest of the season, Rodgers did not give up completely.

"I must admit that this is a catastrophic defeat. I must admit that we have not done well enough in some aspects. This is the gap between us and Manchester United. I said before the season that Liverpool will not always be a foil for others. Our The goal is only to win the championship. It is difficult now, but the opportunity is still there... I am very glad that Zhou is a Chinese player. He will soon represent the Chinese team to participate in the Asian Cup. At least in the next month, it will be a good time for us to catch up .”

After playing the game against Liverpool, it was already December 12th in the blink of an eye. The end of the year is approaching, and the Asian Cup will open on January 15th, 2015.

Not only Rogers, but all opponents staring at Manchester United are paying attention to this matter. When Zhou Tiancheng leaves the team is the time for them to catch up with all their strength.

Just next to the Carrington base, there is even a cartoon posted outside Manchester City's training base: Zhou Tiancheng is wearing a Chinese team jersey, holding up the Asian Cup championship trophy, while a big-headed doll wearing a Manchester United jersey is looking at the trophy. face tears.

Very vivid, it was posted for Manchester United, and even flew to the Carrington base from time to time.

Manchester City is a cutting-edge force that has only emerged in recent seasons. There is no real mouthpiece in Manchester. Their voice is definitely not as good as Manchester United, but their caricature happened to send an assist to Chelsea in West London. Although they are eight points behind, they After all, ranking second is the most likely threat to Manchester United's status.

Even Arsenal, who have no hope of winning the fourth place, came to join in the fun, saying that they are keeping their presence in the ranks of the giants, but the meaning is obvious.

All opponents hope that Zhou Tiancheng can successfully defend the title with the Chinese team.The cartoon of Manchester City is very clear-the Asian Cup will not end until January 1, and the Chinese team can really go to the final defense, which means that Zhou Tiancheng will miss the entire January game. During this period, there will be a total of four rounds of the Premier League League, plus an FA Cup, to the fourth round, the Premier League team played.

Regardless of the FA Cup, Manchester United's opponent is Yeovil, who was relegated from League One to League Two last season.However, these four league games are the top four in the standings, and even the top six teams are staring.

Even if they can't overtake Manchester United in one fell swoop based on these four games, at least the gap can be greatly narrowed.

Without Zhou Tiancheng, Manchester United's achievements are obvious to all - even Milton Keynes can slaughter four of them, maybe the FA Cup will capsize!
……

Manchester United is still preparing for the game normally. Van Gaal has not let Zhou Tiancheng leave the team for a long time, but he has been observing Zhou Tiancheng without any abnormalities.

He stared at Zhou Tiancheng and was thinking. Giggs came over from the side and said to him: "Luis, the fax from the Chinese Football Association urges us to let Zhou return to the Chinese team as soon as possible. It seems that we need to make up our minds. no way."

Van Gaal was interrupted all of a sudden. Looking at a page of paper handed over by Giggs, he felt even more irritable. He took it twice and crumpled it into shreds, and said to Giggs: "Hurry up, hell! Zhou is now My players! Reply to them and we'll let him report for duty when we finish the FA Cup with us."

Van Gaal's face darkened, with an irrefutable tone.
