Chapter 724: Guardiola's nemesis
Chapter 724: Guardiola's Nemesis
April 9th, the 31st round of the Premier League.
The absolute focus of this round of battle may also be regarded as the most critical game of the season.
Manchester's derby!
Manchester United are at home at Old Trafford, facing their rivals Manchester City! !
On the stands, red has an absolute advantage!
Old Trafford, this is the red home court! !
Here, Manchester United fans sang Manchester United songs, waving flags, cheering and waiting for the start of the game.
When the Manchester City players walked into the Old Trafford Stadium, they were greeted by the cheers of the mountains and the tsunami.
But this cheer is of course not for them, but for the Manchester United players next to them.
Manchester United fans are using this method to pressure Manchester City's players to let them know who is here!
In fact, after introducing the roster of the two sides before, Manchester City's players have already felt the "enthusiasm" of the opposing fans.
Such a scene is not unusual for Manchester City players.
If Manchester United fans were friendly to them, that would be the hell.
In the stands, many Manchester United fans hung many slogans mocking Manchester City.
"A warm welcome to the pets of the oil merchant!"
"Hey, would you like to visit our honor room? People from Manchester City?"
The two teams are dead enemies, and the fans on both sides are full of hostility. Now with the rise of Manchester City and becoming a rival of Manchester United's league, this hostility is naturally deeper!
Before the players from both sides stepped onto the court, the two teams shook hands on the sidelines.
This is certainly not the first time that Gao Bo and Guardiola have met. Even in the Premier League, this is the second time they have met.
The record of Gao Bo and Guardiola's fight can be traced back to La Liga in the 2010-2011 season!
At that time, the two sides met for the first time, and Atletico Madrid led by Gao Bo actually swept Barcelona five to one at the Nou Camp!
Such a result has made Barcelona fans hate it till now.
In the following season, at the Calderon Stadium, Barcelona once again lost one to five!
These two disastrous defeats are the worst games Guardiola has lost in his career.
none of them!
"In the hands of Gao Bo and Guardiola, including in La Liga, in the Champions League, the Copa del Rey, and the Premier League, the two sides played a total of eight times. Among them, Guardiola lost seven of them, which was a pitiful one. Gao Bo is the only coach who has allowed Guardiola to lose so many games.”
Before the game started, the commentator Letkinson introduced to everyone.
"Not to mention the first time the two sides played against each other this season. Manchester City beat Manchester United at home and won the first victory of the season. In La Liga, Guardiola's Barcelona was completely defeated by Gao Bo's Madrid. The competition is suppressed!!"
"In the game against Gao Bo, Guardiola has never won a game. Yes, Guardiola has never won even any game against Gao Bo!"
It doesn't matter if you don't review this history, a review can be really scary.
Everyone knows that Guardiola created Barcelona's Dream Three Dynasty in one hand, and such a cutting-edge coach actually has no power to fight back when facing Gao Bo.
Looking at the statistics, Gao Bo has the absolute upper hand. It can be said that Guardiola is "sling".
I don't know if the treats will change after coming to the Premier League.
"Let’s take a look at the starting list of the home team Manchester United. The goalkeeper De Gea, the center-back combination is Ferdinand’s partner Hummels, the left-back is veteran Evra, and the right-back is Rafael. As for midfield, Manchester United’s midfield Said luxury, Modric, Thiago, Pogba three midfielder configuration, and on the bench, there are such as Scholes, and the Japanese midfielder Shinji Kagawa introduced in the winter transfer window Good player, forward, center Rooney starts the field, with Pedro on the left and Portuguese winger Nani on the right! Guardiola has a very strong lineup."
"As for the visiting team, Manchester City is still a relatively balanced 4231 formation. The goalkeeper Oblak, the central defender is Kompany's partner Koroture, the left defender Kolarov, the right defender Trippier , The two defensive midfielders Casemiro partnered with Fernandinho, frontcourt, the left side was injured by David Silva, and he returned to the left Hazard, the right is still Griezman, the front waist card Card, and the striker was replaced by Dzeko!! On the bench, Manchester City also has players such as Vardy and Adam White on standby!"
"This game may be the best chance for Guardiola to comeback. Manchester City first played a costly Champions League game away. David Silva was injured and missed the long Manchester derby. Manchester United is waiting for work. Although Carrick and Scholes are injured, Manchester United's main lineup has not been injured for the time being. They can play with the strongest lineup!"
When Letkinson spoke, the two head coaches had returned to their positions.
In this crucial game, whether Gao Bo continued his role as "Guardiola" or Guardiola rebounded against the trend, everyone is curious.
No one reserved for this game.
After all, there is nothing to keep. This is basically the final of the league. Whoever wins will take the initiative and will most likely win the championship.
At this time, he still retains his strength, isn't that a pit in his head. The prerequisite for pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger is to eat the tiger. If it is eaten by the tiger instead, it will really become a pig.
After all the pre-match procedures have been carried out, the game officially begins.
Because this game is so important, after the start of the game, both sides appeared very cautious.
Although Gao Bo said in front of the media that this is not a final, the nature of this game is no different from the final.
Since ancient times the finals have not been named, the cautious attitude of both sides is of course very normal~lightnovelpub.net~ Not only are they very cautious about putting troops in the offensive, both sides will be very cautious about the offensive of the other side.
Once the opponent has the signs of scoring into the dangerous area, the players' actions will immediately start to fight, even if it is a foul!
In the first minute of the game, Casemiro's sliding tackle knocked Modric to the ground, declaring the basic rhythm of the game.
Afterwards, Pogba turned around and knocked Fernandinho to the ground after being stole by Fernandinho.
This caused Gao Bo's strong dissatisfaction.
He was not dissatisfied with Pogba, but with the referee on duty, Clattenberg.
He thinks this should be at least a yellow card.
But Kratenberg just gave Manchester City a set kick, and did not mean to play a card.
At the beginning of the game, the confrontation between the two sides was very fierce, and the game fell into anxiety.
