v5 Chapter 122: Golden boots! Golden boots! (two)

On May 18, the last round of the 0708 season Serie A, before the kick-off of Inter Milan's away game with Parma, after Inter Milan's proposal, the two sides mourned a minute of silence on the court. Inter Milan team all wore black veil.

This is the first team in the five major European leagues to mourn the victims in the most solemn way.

A few hours later, in the far northeast of the Iberian Peninsula, Deportivo, led by Chen Tao and Li Weifeng, also wore black veil on his arms.

That's enough, each team has different levels of association with China. China needs goodwill, as many as possible.

With this activity as a sign, the disaster relief activities of Wang Ai and other overseas army groups have temporarily come to an end. Even if various aspects of the country are still going on, such as CCTV's fundraising party, there is very little that overseas people can do.

The huge pain needs time to heal, and it also needs the wonderful performance of the athletes to slowly dilute.

Before this game, Wang Ai's enthusiasm was very strong, and then Xu Qinglian slowly calmed down after repeated consolation and persuasion, and refocused on the court.

This week, the five major leagues have successively decided the championship. In addition to Serie A’s Inter Milan winning four rounds ahead of schedule, Bundesliga’s Bayern won three rounds ahead of schedule, La Liga’s Real Madrid won one round ahead of schedule, and Ligue 1’s Lyon won the final round.

But the most interesting thing is the Premier League, specifically the battle between Chelsea and Manchester United.

In the past two years, Manchester United has a neat lineup and Cristiano Ronaldo, a rising star. Even if Chelsea has strong funds and a scary lineup, the old Sir Alex's pick is also swift. Last season, Mr. Roman and Jose coach barely cooperated to the end, and then the contradiction between the two sides broke out. Just after the season started, Robben left and Jose left, and it was a collapsed situation.

Originally, Sir Alex thought that Manchester United’s spring was here, but he did not expect that Jose’s departure and Mr. Roman’s eagerness unexpectedly liberated and inspired the team’s strongest scorer. As a result, Wang Ai finished the first half of the 0708 season with the enthusiasm of participating in the World Cup finals. Various media believe that he alone won 10 league points for Chelsea!

Wang Ai finally left, but Chelsea also started the second half with an advantage of 8 points ahead of Manchester United.

Manchester United's spring is indeed here, but it is so cold!

In front of Sir Alex, Manchester United and even Cristiano Ronaldo is a dilemma: to protect the league or the cup? Which one really means the revival of Manchester United?

The Champions League is of course more important than the Premier League, but there are strong players in the Champions League, and Manchester United's strong resilience in the league makes it seem easier to win the league championship.

One is in one step and the other is in stages. In the end, Sir Alex made up his mind while cursing: I want both!

So after Wang Ai disappeared in the Premier League, Chelsea and Manchester United launched a desperate competition, every round and every game was thrilling.

As a result, Chelsea, who lost Wang Ai's ability to fight as expected, was unexpectedly tenacious. After analysis, Mr. Roman’s strong family background, Grant wisely retained the integrity of the existing tactical system, and even Terry’s counterattack against Jose at a critical moment, contributed to Chelsea’s replacement of the old and the new as soon as possible. .

In short, Chelsea did not get on the ground, but in a situation of "player autonomy", unexpected streak winning streak, not only kept the 8-point advantage, but also widened the point difference. In the 21st, 22nd, 23rd, and 24th rounds, both sides won and 25 were tied. On February 10th, Chelsea tied Liverpool in the 26th round, but Manchester United lost, with a 9-point difference.

The old Sir Alex was a person who refused to admit defeat. He gritted his teeth and chased him for two months when he was 8 points behind. He didn't catch up.

Ferguson is also a cunning and wise man. He knows that if you continue to do this, Chelsea may not behave, and Manchester United, which has been chasing but unable to catch up, may collapse. In addition, the first match between the Champions League quarter-finals and the French giants Lyon is about to come, so a new deployment is quietly made: rotation!

Without rotation, there are only 12 games left in the league. A 9-point difference means that Manchester United have 3 more wins than Chelsea, and Chelsea have not lost in the second half! Even because of Wang Ai's crazy goals in the first half, Manchester United's three wins were not enough!

No matter what you think about, it is very likely that you will not get anything in the end. The old Sir Alex was forced to this level, he could only drink red wine and yelled "Abominable Russian", and then he obediently adjusted his force center.

But Chelsea immediately noticed his move, so he followed suit.

However, this does not mean that Manchester United has no idea in the league, what if it should? Even if you actually give up, you still have to put enough pressure on Chelsea to make the Russians' life not so easy!

So while looking forward to the results in the Champions League, the two sides are also fighting in the league. In the 27th round, Chelsea tied and Manchester United won, with a 7-point difference. In 28, 29, 30, 31, and 32 rounds, both sides won, and the points are still 7 points.

On April 5th, in the 33rd round, Chelsea won and Manchester United tied. The point difference returned to 9 points, leaving the league with 5 games left. This time Ferguson was completely desperate. Although the thickness of the lineup can still play the last few league games vividly, what use is it?

In 34 rounds, Manchester United won and Chelsea tied with 7 points. In 35 rounds, Manchester United tied and Chelsea won with 9 points. In this way, unless Chelsea lose all of the last three games, Manchester United wins all and each has a goal difference of not less than 7 goals, the overall situation is set.

By this time, both the coach and the players of Manchester United have completely given up and put all their energy on the two Champions League semi-finals on April 23 and April 29, because the opponent is the powerful Barcelona.

Can't tolerate Manchester United thinking about things anymore.

So in the 36th round of the Premier League’s direct dialogue with Chelsea, Chelsea won 2:1 and won the league title two rounds ahead of schedule.

A few days later, Chelsea also struggled to beat Liverpool through overtime and advance to the Champions League final.

At this time, the tired two sides can't help but regard this Champions League final as the "overtime" of this year's Premier League. Chelsea want to completely suppress Manchester United and build a dynasty, while Manchester United wants to win a game and retain hope.

In such a tense to suffocating competition, Sir Alex can't take care of many things, such as helping his beloved disciple Ronaldo to accumulate the "points" for two awards.

Because of frequent rotation and tactical requirements, after the end of the final round of the Premier League on May 11, Ronaldo's number of goals remained at 27, ranking second with a difference of 7 goals.

The top scorer still belongs to the person who has been away for half a season!
