Football King Bale

Chapter 354 Three-Nation Football War

Bale, who returned from Japan with a great reputation, immediately received another very important award after returning to the UK: the 2011 Player of the Year from the famous English magazine "World Football"!

This award has been selected since 1982. Unlike the former World Footballer, who was selected by the head coach and captain of each national team, and the Golden Globe Award, which was selected by the media, this award is voted for by fans.

This year's award is in its 30th year, but Bell is the second British person to win. Ten years ago in 2001, Owen, who was still known as the golden boy at the time, won the award and became the first British person to win the award.

Bell's advantage in winning the award was overwhelming. In this selection, he received 66% of the votes, which was the highest record in the magazine's 30 years of establishing this award. The previous record holder was Platini, who was elected in 1984 with 54% of the vote.

This is the second time Bell has been selected into the top three for this award. Last year, he ranked second in the selection. The best player was Barcelona's brain Xavi, and the third was Messi. However, there was not much difference in the votes among the three at that time. None of the three received more than 30% of the votes. Harvey only narrowly won.

This year, the other two in the top three are Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, but neither of them received more than 10% of the votes, which is too far behind Bale.

………………

In the selection of coach of the year, Ferguson deservedly won the first place. At the same time, this was the fourth time that Ferguson was elected. What is slightly surprising is that Mourinho ranked fifth with only 3.3% of the votes. Before him were Uruguay coach Tabarez, Manchester United coach Guardiola, and Dortmund coach Klopp.

In the selection of the best team, Manchester United had a large advantage with 49% of the votes. Barcelona took 24.3% of the votes and ranked second. What is surprising is that the third team, Wales, unexpectedly Qualified for next year's European Cup finals, occupying third place with 18% of the vote, and Wales is the only national team selected into the top ten!

The best new star was won by Santos' Neymar, and his teammate Ganso ranked fifth. The second and third places belonged to Dortmund's Gotze and Lille's Hazard. Manchester United defender Felipe Felipe, who is currently popular in the Premier League, ranked fifth. Jones, Arsenal midfielder Wilshere, and Manchester City forward Balotelli ranked 6th, 8th, and 9th respectively.

Times make heroes, or heroes make times. No matter which sentence you use to describe the relationship between Manchester United and Bale, it is not appropriate enough. In the large-scale star-making campaign in the European League, although there are still strong competitors like Messi and Ronaldo , but the Welsh youngster is still the brightest star in the world today.

Just like the Three Kingdoms War between Wei, Shu and Wu in Eastern history, Manchester United, Barcelona and Real Madrid constitute the three poles of today's football. Coincidentally, Wei, which is located in the north among the Three Kingdoms, has a clear advantage.

In the past year, the competition between the three teams also ended with a comprehensive victory of Manchester United in the north.

Bale, Messi and Ronaldo, the stars of the three giants, also constitute the three poles of today's football players. The pursuit of each other between the three presents the most exciting game scenes for fans, but Manchester United and Manchester United Bell is still the one with the last laugh.

Bale and Manchester United are gradually moving toward perfection as they depend on each other, and jointly reached the top of this year's "World Football" selection.

………………

Although Christmas is approaching and other major European leagues have entered the winter break, the Premier League is still in full swing.

Not long after Manchester United returned to the UK, they ushered in the 17th round of their Premier League match.

Because of returning from Japan thousands of miles away, the Football Association of England arranged Manchester United's game to be the last game of this round, which is to be played at 8pm local time in England on Monday night.

Before the start of the Manchester United game, the remaining 9 games of this round have ended. Manchester City has already gained points by virtue of its 1:0 victory over Arsenal at home in the previous round and its 3:0 victory over Stoke City at home in this round. The points on the standings are only 4 points away!

Of course, if Manchester United can win Fulham away from home and Queens Park Rangers in the make-up game, the point gap between them and Manchester City will still be 10 points.

Because Manchester United had just played a fierce battle in Japan, thousands of miles away, four days ago, and flew a full 10,000 kilometers back to the UK. Considering the upcoming Christmas Devil schedule, Ferguson implemented the implementation of the team lineup in this game. Multiple rotations.

At the goalkeeper position, Lindegaard started instead of De Gea. Veterans Ferdinand and Vidic on the back line were given a rest. Phil Jones' position on the field returned to the back line again, with Smalling, Evans and Etihad. With Forla as his partner, midfielder Sneijder also sat on the bench. The four midfielders were Valencia, Giggs, Carrick and Bale. Rooney, who partnered with Welbeck in the striker, ushered in his 300th Premier League game, and he became the youngest player to reach this milestone at the age of 26 years and 58 days.

………………

For this game, Manchester United is determined to win. Firstly, they have returned with seven championships and their morale is high. Secondly, this game is of great significance to Manchester United. As long as they can win this game, they will break the previous record. The unbeaten record of 58 league games shared with AC Milan, exclusive to the five major leagues.

Only one minute into the first half, Dempsey hit Jones in the face with his left elbow while fighting for a header, causing the game to be briefly interrupted. However, as soon as the game restarted, Manchester United scored.

In the 5th minute, Bell dribbled the ball along the left side and broke through 45 meters. When Baird was not tightly guarded, he passed a low ball to the middle of the baseline. Welbeck reached the small penalty area without interference and hit the right corner of the goal with his left foot. Scored his 6th goal of the season and the first away goal in the Premier League in his career.

After a dream start, Manchester United's offense became more and more sharp. Craven Farm, which was once a sad place for Manchester United, has completely become a racecourse for Manchester United players.

In the 6th minute, Manchester United almost expanded the score again. Valencia passed a fast ball from the right rib. Giggs failed to respond, and the ball passed in front of the goal and flew out of the baseline.

Three minutes later, Bell, who had not shot before, tried to test his feet, but his long shot on the left side of the penalty area missed the near corner and failed to hit the target.

In the 15th minute, Rooney, who was celebrating his 300th Premier League game, also tried his best. He received a pass from Phil Jones in the small penalty area, suddenly turned around and shot in front of the goal, but Stockdale confiscated it.

However, Manchester United soon suffered a blow. In the 18th minute, the home team Fulham, who had been pinned to the ground by Manchester United for more than ten minutes, made a good counterattack. Phil Jones directly passed the ball from Ruiz's feet in the penalty area. He broke out of the bottom line to rescue, but was elbowed by his opponent. From the looks of his eyes, Phil Jones was still seriously injured after being hit on the head. Ferguson therefore replaced Jones with Nani, which meant that Valencia's back Withdrawing the right back, Smalling moved inward to partner with Evans to guard the center of the defense.

………………

When the game entered the 20th minute, Manchester United almost scored Fulham's goal with a free kick from Bale, but the Cottagers goalkeeper David Stockdale performed bravely and flew to take Bale's inevitable free kick. The ball was turned away.

However, facing the onslaught of the Red Devils, Fulham's resistance failed to last for half an hour before Manchester United broke through for the second time.

In the 29th minute, Giggs cooperated with Valencia's tactical corner kick on the right and then passed the ball. Nani jumped up from 8 meters and headed the goal. Rooney failed to shoot in front of the goal but caused a shake. The ball flew past Rooney and drilled in. In the left corner of the goal, this is Nani's 8th goal of the season. In Manchester United's last 8 goals, Nani has scored 3 goals and assisted 2. This is also Nani's first header in the Premier League.

Manchester United, who had taken a two-goal lead in less than half an hour, did not relax the pace of the game. They continued to completely suppress Fulham on the field, and at the end of the first half, they once again rewritten the score to 3:0!

In the 42nd minute, Nani broke through to the penalty area on the right side and then crossed the middle. Giggs shot with his left foot near the penalty spot. The ball hit Senderos, who fell to the ground and blocked it, and formed a falling ball. From the leaping Stowe Keddale flew over the head and into the net.

Hegel once said: "Existence is reasonable", and for Giggs in the Premier League, "existence is legend". When at Craven Cottage Stadium, the Welsh veteran, who had celebrated his 38th birthday on the 29th of last month, scored with a clever left-foot shot with the help of Senderos, wearing the Manchester United shirt for the 891st time. Giggs, who played in the game, continues to enjoy the proud record of scoring goals in every 20 Premier League seasons.

Although Sir Alex Ferguson made adjustments to Giggs' appearance and time due to his age, the veteran did not look old at all at critical moments. Instead, he became younger as he played. Judging from Giggs' appearances, the last four main-season appearances have all been away from home. In the last seven games, only the game against Newcastle United has been at the Theater of Dreams. This shows that Ferguson hopes to use Giggs on the edge. superior.

Since one of the highlights of this weekend is the birth of the 20,000th goal in the history of the Premier League, fans once clamored for Giggs, the living fossil of the Premier League, to seize this opportunity. It is the so-called God's will. Although Giggs scored, the goal was the 19,999th, which was about 12 minutes earlier than the actual 20,000th goal. This goal was also the 49th goal that Giggs scored in the first half of the Premier League. ball, and his number of goals in Premier League home games is also 49.

It seems regrettable, but one thing Giggs will be proud of is that since the establishment of the Premier League in the 1992-1993 season, he is the only player who can score goals in every season (22 seasons in the top league). This kind of durability and stability is a height that is difficult for others to achieve, and at the age of 38 years and 22 days, Giggs has become the oldest player to score for Manchester United after World War II.
