If you don’t count the football leagues that have prevailed in Chang'an for decades during the Tang Dynasty, the FA Cup is the oldest event in the football world. It celebrated its 150th anniversary in 2013, and it is the only one in the world.

The FA Cup is also the largest football match in the world. All clubs registered with the English Football Association can sign up for it. Professional, semi-professional, amateur, even if you are a vegetable market team, as long as you sign up, no one will refuse. .

　　 In the 2004-05 season, a total of 660 teams signed up for the FA Cup, setting a record, but in other years, there are generally no fewer than 600.

Moreover, the FA Cup does not have a seeded team. Lots are drawn completely at random, and then one-on-one. Therefore, similar to the incident of the "London King" League One Charlton, the amateur team in the market is in the FA Cup. Not surprisingly at all.

　　 It was a big draw in the early days. Later, because of taking care of the high-level and busy schedule, the Premier League and the Premier League team were eliminated from the preliminary, qualifying and two rounds of the main game, allowing them to start in the third round, which is the top 64.

　　Because of the large scale of the competition, the large number of matches, and the high frequency of natural unpopularity, the FA Cup often staged scenes of hacking and overturning giants. This also made the FA Cup more football spirit.

　　 All member states of football have similar FA Cups, but the FA Cup is one of the most dazzling, and it is also the most famous ‘FA Cup’. Even in the eyes of most English fans, the FA Cup is higher than the Premier League and the Champions League. As for the League Cup, who cares about it.

In the 2016-17 England FA Cup, there were still many upsets in the first few qualifying rounds and the first two rounds. Several amateur teams below the fourth tier reached the top 64, but Manchester City's luck was not very good. , Blue Moon ran into the Premier League team'Hammer Gang' West Ham in the draw.

　　 The entire FA Cup schedule is in principle a win-or-loss event. The difference is that a tie before the semi-finals requires a rematch, while the semi-finals and finals will follow the rules of the tournament, with extra time and even penalty kicks after the tie.

　　 In order to take care of the development of low-level teams, when two teams of different levels meet, the game will be held at the home court of the low-level team. If they are the same level, it will be decided by drawing lots.

　　 Manchester City not only drew West Ham, but also drew away.

　　 In the third round of the Premier League at the end of August last year, Manchester City defeated West Ham 3:1 at home. At that time, Zhuo Yang had just joined Manchester City.

　　 This year's FA Cup, Guardiola is going to strike hard, he is the kind of perfectionist man who wants to meet every champion he is good at mentally abusing himself.

　　 In fact, think about it. From the top 64 to the championship, it only takes 6 consecutive wins. It seems that the trophy is not far away. But after careful calculation, to win a World Cup is only to win 4 games after the group qualify.

　　 Guardiola doesn't care about you, because he is a stubborn old guy.

　　 Four days ago, the 6-0 victory over Burnley made Guardiola, who had been criticized by the British media during this period, stretched a lot of waist. Therefore, the handsome guy, who has been pretending to be gentle and elegant for more than six months, slammed the reporter once.

　　 The previous question and answer are normal and very procedural. I didn’t expect that when the reporter asked “what do you think Fernandinho was sent off for a foul” according to the procedure, the depressed Guardiola suddenly broke out.

　　 "Ask me why? Ah~, what are you asking me!" The voice was so sharp that he became the father of Dongchang Gua. "I can't comment on the referee. I have to ask the referee this question, not come to me."

　　 "This is the Premier League. You are all experts. I am just a primary school student. I still need to study hard. You are the experts."

　　 The more perverted you are, the more I like it. The reporters don’t think it’s too big, and the atmosphere suddenly becomes active.

　　 "Why do you still look unhappy after winning?"

　　 "I'm very happy, hahaha~" Dongchang-style dry smile. "You can't imagine the happiness, you can't believe how happy I am. Hahaha~ yeah! Happy New Year~~~"

　　 Not only was it a reporter, Guardiola also smashed Capello, a senior in coaching.

Fabio Capello coached the England national team for four years, he dismissed classes in early 2012, and then went to the Russian national team. The 2014 World Cup and 2016 European Championship qualifiers were very average, and the contract was terminated early the previous summer. , Currently at home.

　　 The 71-year-old Capello now occasionally makes guest appearances on live broadcasts, but has not announced his retirement. He still plans to return to coach the team, but there is no suitable team for the time being.

　　 During the live broadcast of Manchester City's game, Capello talked about Guardiola, and he was a little bit old.

　　 "I used to coach Pep Guardiola as a player, and I still know him. His ideal is to become the chairman of the FC Barcelona."

　　 Do you mean, Guardiola is not suitable for the head coach of the team?

　　 In the summer of 2001, the 30-year-old Barcelona captain Pep Guardiola announced his departure and was abducted by Robert Baggio to Brescia in Serie A. He became the core of Brescia's midfielder in the following year.

　 　 In August 2002, Guardiola felt that he could still squeeze, so he moved to Rome. At that time, the head coach of Rome was Capello.

　　 Capello has never been better than a technical offensive midfielder. Guardiola only played four times off the bench in his second half of the season, and the total was less than 45 minutes.

　　 In winter, the eldest brother Baggio called affectionately: Come back, come back, no Nima loess is buried in silver.

　　 So Guardiola returned to the warm embrace of Brescia Baggio during the winter break. However, half a year later, Guardiola failed to pass the new season Serie A drug test, only to tears again to separate from Baggio, and went back to the Qatar League for retirement.

In addition, what many people don’t know is that before going to Qatar, Guardiola came to the Premier League to try out Manchester City, but Manchester City only offered him a half-season short-term contract. , Lao Gu felt that he was humiliated and broke up unhappy.

　　 Guardiola is unlikely to have a good impression of Capello. In his opinion, Capello is talking about him now, obviously pretending to be a large clove of garlic.

　　 "People who can play under Capello are lucky, and I am no exception. But what I want to tell him is that I will never be the chairman of Barcelona in the future, because that is Gerard Pique's business."

　　 "And after coaching Manchester City, I will retire and fully retire to enjoy life. Manchester City will be the last team I coached. I will not work until I am 60 or 65 years old.

　　Capello: Who are you talking about?

　　 Ferguson, Wenger, Lippi: Who's the face?

　　 Zhuo Yang turned around and asked him: "Gua brother, are you really going to retire when you finish Manchester City? It's a bit rotten!"

　　 "I really thought about it. How about it, my brothers have had a good time for a few years, and then we will retire together."

　　 "Hey, if I play for another ten or twenty years, see how you slap yourself in the face."

　　 The reporter asked Zhuo Yang: What kind of head coach do you think Guardiola is?

　　 He said: Guardiola is a very lame coach, because he can do nothing but win the championship.
