Football career: From winning the championship to becoming a legend

Chapter 367: Final match of the 0708 Premier League season, China

When Ronaldo scored the penalty, all Manchester United fans were very excited, and Sir Alex Ferguson almost rushed into the field to cheer;

But after celebrating the goal, Sir Alex Ferguson, Manchester United's coaching staff and the big brothers in the Manchester United team quickly came back to their senses and kept reminding their teammates on and off the field: "The game is not over yet! We must stay alert and try to kill the game as soon as possible..."

There was no change for Wigan Athletic, which was lagging behind. After all, the three points of victory or defeat were not important to them. They just had to live up to their home fans and play well in their last home game of the season.

So Wigan played the way they were supposed to. They didn't play defensively, nor did they play with all their players. They just played back and forth with Manchester United, attacking and defending at the same time.

Li Qi felt that this rhythm was pretty good: the opponent was very cooperative, which was suitable for such a stress-free rhythm, and then he could score a goal himself to kill the game!

However, after the first half, and after playing for another ten minutes in the second half, Li Qi did not catch any good chances, and it was still mainly Ronaldo and Rooney who wasted the chances to score.

It wasn't until the game had been going on for a full hour that something changed on the sidelines, and the little chicken thief finally got his first chance to meet his match!

In the 60th minute, Sir Alex replaced Scholes with Giggs.

The moment the latter stepped onto the pitch, he tied Manchester United legend Charlton's club appearance record of 758 games for Manchester United. If he gets another chance to play in the Champions League final 10 days later, Giggs will become the first player to play for the Red Devils with 759 games.

After the substitution, Li Qi changed to play Scholes' position in the central midfield, Ronaldo and Rooney partnered as strikers, and Giggs played on the wing.

After the retreating Li Qi created some distance between himself and Wigan Athletic's defense, he soon got the chance.

In the 65th minute, Li Qixian cooperated with Carrick in the middle and then passed the ball to the sides. Giggs on the left wing took the ball and calmly made a long-distance pass to the empty space on the other side, giving it to Park Ji-sung.

After the latter stably took the ball off with his feet, he decisively took advantage of the gap behind Wigan Athletic's left-back Bramble and passed the ball to the bottom line...

As soon as Li Qi saw this, he knew there was a chance and the ball could be passed, because Fat Luke had already cleverly gone around to the front to receive the ball, while Ronaldo obviously wanted to ambush at the back point and wait for Park Sam-Fei to pass the ball high.

But Li Qi thinks that it is highly likely that Park Sam-Fei will pass the ball to Rooney who is closer, but Rooney may not be able to shoot from a good angle after getting the ball...

So Li Qi decisively moved forward and cut into the middle of the penalty area.

As expected, after going down the bottom line, Park Ji-sung made a triangle pass to Rooney who was close to receive the ball. After receiving the ball at the left edge of the penalty area, the latter made a shoulder fake move, dribbled past Boyce who came to defend, and slipped to the bottom line.

Then Rooney shot a powerful shot at Kirkland from a small angle. The ball hit the goalkeeper's chest but did not go out of the baseline, but bounced back to the middle of the small penalty area...

It fell right in front of the unguarded little thief Li Qi.

Li Qi naturally accepted the gift with a smile. Without any hesitation, he smiled and slightly rose into the air, then used the arch of his right foot to cushion the ball into the empty goal in front of him.

Li Qi scored his 21st goal in the league, helping Manchester United to lead the home team 2-0. This goal basically killed the game and helped Manchester United secure the championship!

So the whole Manchester United team and the fans were so happy when Li Qi scored a dead chicken in front of the goal. One goal was not a guarantee, but with two goals in hand, the championship was like a cooked duck and there was no way to escape!

So regardless of Li Qi's objections and pleading, Ronaldo first knocked Li Qi, who was celebrating by covering his ears, down on the sidelines with a sweeping kick, and then a group of Manchester United big players began to gather around and play human pyramid...

Chicken Thief Li: Duck! Help...

Little Mule: Humph! You're not going to give me a chance to get my revenge? Don't think I don't know that you were the one who started it last time... (For details, please see Chapter 320)

After the celebration, Li Qi left a head full of grass debris. The Manchester United players reminded each other as if nothing had happened that the game was not over yet, and then returned to their positions, waiting for the home team to kick off and prepare to resume the game.

Li Qi, who looked like he had lost all hope in life, saw Sir Alex Ferguson making a substitution, with Hargreaves on and No. 17 off: Oh no, no revenge, Li Qi's league season is over...

But Manchester United's game was not over yet, because in the 80th minute after Li Qi left the field, the Red Devils changed the score again.

In the 80th minute, Rooney again made a diagonal run to receive Park Ji-sung's pass, but this time Rooney did not slip to the bottom line, and made a horizontal pass after getting out of the way. The ball passed Ronaldo, who was following Li Qi's example and outflanking the middle, and accurately found Giggs who was ambushing at the far end of the penalty area.

The Welsh veteran lived up to expectations. From 15 yards in front of the goal, he decisively shot with his left foot between Boyce and Shannar, and the ball was brilliantly pumped into the lower right corner of the home team's goal!

This was Giggs' 101st league goal for Manchester United, his 147th goal in his career, his fourth goal of the season, and Manchester United's last league goal of the season!

You know, Manchester United's first official goal of the season was the first goal scored by Giggs against Chelsea in the Community Shield!

Manchester United's first and last goals in England's domestic matches this season were both scored by veteran Giggs, what a consistent start and finish!

The two veterans of Manchester United made great contributions to Manchester United's sprint to the last minute of this season. Scholes' goal in the Champions League semi-final sent Manchester United firmly into the Champions League final, and Giggs' goal in this campaign completely retained the league championship...

Then, Sir Alex made his last substitution, replacing Park Ji-sung with Tevez, allowing Tevez, who had made great contributions, to also feel the joy of winning the Premier League title.

Then, after Wigan Athletic tried several times to close the gap but to no avail, the referee blew the whistle for the full game and the end of this season's Premier League!

最终曼联在客场3比0拿下了维冈竞技,成功卫冕07/08赛季的英超冠军!这是曼联在16年英超历程中第10次夺冠,也是吉格斯的第10个联赛冠军奖章。

Manchester United won the English top league championship for the 17th time and the sixth time in Manchester United's history to successfully defend the league, breaking Liverpool's previous record of five defenses. The team is only one trophy away from tying the team's 6 league trophies.

But Manchester United and Red Devils fans no longer care about this record. They completely took over the record and celebrated passionately at the JJB Stadium, the home of the home team Wigan Athletic!

Although the fans knew that there would be a grand parade and celebration when they returned to Manchester, they first grabbed the jerseys and shorts of the players on the field...

All matches in the last round of the Premier League kicked off at the same time and ended almost at the same time as Manchester United's game.

In another Premier League title battle, Chelsea faced Bolton at home, but an upset occurred in the last moments.

Before this match, Chelsea remained unbeaten in the last eight matches between the two sides with 8 wins and 6 draws. The last time Bolton won at Stamford Bridge was in December 2, but Terry's own goal in the last minute of the game ruined the game.

In this game, in order to keep the hope of winning the championship, Chelsea kept putting pressure on the opponent from the first second of the game.

Bolton, who still needed to secure their relegation qualification with points, resolutely implemented the iron bucket defense strategy, with 10 players hiding in the penalty area and only one player left outside the penalty area to harass...

However, the home team broke the deadlock in the 62nd minute. Malouda took a corner kick from the left side, Joe Cole's shot from the edge of the penalty area was blocked, and Lampard followed up with another shot from the edge of the penalty area, but Shevchenko shot it into the net from 6 yards.

However, when Li Qi scored the second goal and basically helped Manchester United lock the championship of this season, the mentality of Chelsea players collapsed a little...

Once again, Bolton seized the opportunity in the last minute of the game and scored an equalizer.

The visiting team equalized the score in the 93rd minute. Matthew Taylor's shot from the right side hit the inside of Cech's right foot and deflected into the net in the melee in the penalty area!

Bolton Wanderers drew with Chelsea in the final moments and successfully avoided relegation, which also made Chelsea lag behind Manchester United not only in goal difference. The Premier League dust settled, and Chelsea finished second with a difference of two points.

In addition, there were many goal-scoring battles in the final round of the Premier League, not to mention Arsenal's 1-0 away win over Sunderland and Liverpool's 2-0 away win over Tottenham Hotspur, two boring games with only one or two goals.

Newcastle lost 1-3 to Everton away, and Aston Villa drew 2-2 with West Ham away. Scoring more than 4 goals in the final round is the standard for the Premier League, and Manchester United has to be considered a failure.

雷丁客场4比0大胜德比郡,送32轮不胜的德比郡成为英格兰足球历史上第2支整赛季仅胜1场的球队,此前的记录保持者是108年前的罗夫堡,但德比郡11分的成绩却成为了英超历史上的最低分球队。

Birmingham also won 4-1 against Blackburn at home. Although Birmingham was unbeaten in nearly 8 home games, they were still forced to be relegated.

There was another match that surprised the fans the most, and it was also the match that Chinese fans were most concerned about, which was Sun Jihai's farewell match for Manchester City...
