Football’s First Defender
Chapter 326: The grievances of the Double Red Society
"Come on! Yang Feng killed Manchester United!" In a frequent community supermarket, the cashier cheered Yang Feng.
"Young man! Must teach me the guys from Manchester United!"
An old man who was obviously older and holding a cane tremblingly picked up the cane and clicked and clicked to express his expectations for Yang Feng.
"Seal them! Let them roll back to Manchester with duck eggs!"
More and more cheering and cheering voices gathered in Yang Feng's ears.
This is the charm of the Double Red Society.
This is the hostility of Liverpool fans towards Manchester United.
As always, as the brightest star in Liverpool's defense line, although Yang Feng's daily trips will be favored by many Liverpool fans, everyone has not been as excited as they are now.
For Liverpool fans, life is life and football is football. What should everyone do in normal? That's it. Except for some small fans who will interfere with Yang Feng's normal activities and take photos, everyone else is just right. Yang Feng smiled and greeted him, usually without too much interference.
But these two days are unusual.
Double Red Club is coming soon. With the end of the Manchester City League Cup game, in the two days before the Double Red Club, the whole city of Liverpool was filled with the smell of "gunsmoke".
At this moment, Bill Shankly's famous saying "Football has nothing to do with life and death, but football is higher than life and death", it is truly reflected in these Liverpool fans.
Some people say that the two most important games for Liverpool in a season are to meet Manchester United's challenge at Anfield, and the other is to go to Old Tford to smash Manchester United's field.
This season, Liverpool fans can watch one of the most important third games of the season at their home court.
The derby between Liverpool and Manchester United, no matter what competition in the UK, is destined to be the most popular event in English football.
The double red club between the two teams, also known as the "Northwest Derby", the England national derby.
The grievances between the two teams may be traced back to a century ago. Anyway, when Liverpool and Manchester United meet, it is destined to cause a **** storm.
"Double Reds" has a long history of grievances. Of course, among the Chinese fans, more of them are just scolding and verbal abuse for the support of the home team. But for the people of Liverpool and Manchester, this is not just a war on the field. The mutual hatred between the two camps has its roots in history, geography and culture, and it can even rise to a conflict of interest, which is now peaceful. In the age, football, in the arena, on the contrary became a battlefield.
Historically, the two cities of Liverpool and Manchester are opposites.
After the opening of the European maritime era, Britain, as an island country, mainly relied on maritime trade for its development. In 1715 Liverpool built Britain's first dockyard, and the profits from the slave trade helped this small city prosper. Although the city of Manchester was established early, its development has been slower than that of the port city of Liverpool. Later, with the gradual decline of the maritime trade dominated by the slave trade, Liverpool’s development fell into a bottleneck. It happened that at this time, the first industrial revolution that changed the course of the world began in Manchester, and Manchester developed rapidly~lightnovelpub.net ~ Gradually replacing Liverpool as the driving force for the development of the UK. The ups and downs of the two have caused the opposition between the two cities. In football, the opposition between fans is just a microcosm of the opposition between cities.
One of the details has also become a topic repeatedly discussed later. Manchester as an industrial city, all imported raw materials must come from Liverpool. Regarding tax issues, Liverpool must increase import taxes, which has caused Manchester's dissatisfaction. The Manchesterians then dug the canal themselves, intensifying the hatred between the two sides.
The economic and cultural background between cities has planted the seeds of hatred between the "double reds", and the less "humane" approach between Manchester United and Liverpool fans has completely turned the two teams into deadly enemies.
After Manchester United's Munich air crash in the 1950s, some radical Liverpool fans actually ridiculed it. They composed a lot of songs to sing at each other's matches to mock each other. In the 1980s, Liverpool also had the Hesburgh tragedy. Some Manchester United fans retaliated and used the same method to fight back against Liverpool.
The hatred between the fans of the two teams is getting deeper and deeper, which also makes the smell of gunpowder on and off the court extremely strong.
On the team side, the head coaches of the two teams are also full of contradictions.
It is interesting that two English clubs gave birth to two rival Scots: Ferguson and Dalglish.
The two Scots have a strong personality and a strong desire to win. Ferguson won the first league championship after 7 years in charge of Manchester United. Dalglish overwhelmed Ferguson when Liverpool first coached. Later, Dalglish went. Blackburn
