From the man behind the football king to the football king

Chapter 384 Manchester United’s Nemesis

Although Manchester United pulled a goal back. However, they failed to regain their disadvantage on the field. Facing Chelsea's fierce offensives one after another, they could only parry and had no power to fight back.

In the 27th minute, Blind made another defensive mistake. Pedro cut in from the right side of the penalty area and passed to Costa. De Gea reached forward and stretched his legs to intercept.

Blind made another mistake 1 minute later. Hazard made a pass from the right side of the penalty area, but Costa's close shot from the front point was saved by De Gea.

In the 36th minute, Chelsea took a corner kick, and a Manchester United player was not far away from the clearance. Hazard hit the goal from the front of the penalty area, and Costa intercepted the ball in the small penalty area. Then he suddenly half-turned and fell after being let go by two Manchester United players. After hooking the shot, goalkeeper De Gea couldn't react in time and could only watch the ball go in, 3:1!

In less than forty minutes, the score was already 3:1, with a total of four goals scored by both sides!

For the audience, such a game is of course a good-looking game. But for Manchester United players and fans, it is very confusing.

Campbell remained silent, expressing his protest in this way.

Under such circumstances, there is a widespread saying that Chelsea is Manchester United's nemesis.

Looking at the painful expressions of the players because they lost the ball, Mourinho sighed and thought that he was still in trouble!

With the whole team mentally unbalanced, such a failure is inevitable. But losing at the beginning of the season is better than losing at the end of the season.

Although Campbell usually didn't want to see Daniel, he didn't want to see him the most today because he knew that Daniel would laugh at the loss of his favorite team.

Because of this fiasco, there were no good voices in the media, which made him very angry.

Looking at the backs of a group of people leaving, Campbell pursed his lips tightly, with tears already welling up in his eyes. He had tried hard not to shed tears in front of so many people just now. He knew that would only make them more excited and taunt them more actively.

There was now only one goal difference between the two sides. Manchester United saw the hope of equalizing the score or even winning. They pressed forward aggressively, while Chelsea used this to start a defensive counterattack.

Daniel is in a good mood today, because not only did Manchester United lose, but his favorite Liverpool also won, beating West Brom 2:1 at home.

In the last ten minutes of the game, Chelsea took advantage of Manchester United's aggressive pressure and eagerness to score and equalize the score. They scored two goals in four minutes and finally fixed the score at 5:2.

Why did they, who had eight consecutive league wins and 13 consecutive wins in all competitions at the beginning of the season, and were considered invincible, unable to fight back against Chelsea's onslaught, completely led by their opponents?

Could it be that Chelsea is really Manchester United’s nemesis?

In the Premier League, Chelsea is the only team with an advantage against Manchester United. In the past 10 meetings between the two sides, Chelsea achieved 5 wins and 5 draws, including 4 wins and 1 draw in 5 home games.

………………

Next, Chelsea coach Conte replaced Pedro with defensive midfielder Chalobah to strengthen the defense. Mourinho replaced the out-of-form Fellaini with Mata and continued to strengthen the offense.

What could make a fan more angry than mocking and attacking his favorite team in front of a fan?

He was treated like this when Manchester United was still led by Ferguson. In school, as long as his favorite Manchester United loses, he will have a long ideological struggle at home before going to school on Monday, wondering whether he should just skip class today because he doesn't want to go to school and be surrounded by a group of people and laugh at him. .

"At least I reduced the sales of this issue of Les Echos!" Campbell thought smugly as he left the newsstand.

As a young fan who lives in Liverpool but falls in love with Manchester United, this kind of experience was not uncommon in the past, because you can hardly expect the "Echo" to say good things about Manchester United.

Take a look at what is written on the cover headline of "Echo". From the headline on the front page "How fast dreams are shattered!" to every word in the report, there is a sense of schadenfreude.

Now, Manchester United once again visited Stamford Bridge Stadium, but was beaten dizzy, which naturally made Manchester United players and fans think of this statement.

"Ahaha! Look who this person is? Little Campbell, oh - my dear classmate! I'm so happy to see you!" He laughed loudly, and the followers behind him also laughed.

Of course, he couldn't go to the Liverpool Echo headquarters and hold up a banner to protest against the magazine's clumsy behavior, but he could use a more practical action to express his protest, and that was to refuse to buy this issue.

………………

But Daniel didn't care, and he didn't need Campbell to say anything. He said to himself: "I didn't watch it either. But I later found out the score, 5:2! Chelsea is really good! Haha! I still remember a week ago What did I say? I said that it won’t be long before your favorite team loses, and it’s going to be a losing streak, haha! It’s already off to a great start!”

No matter how powerful you are at Manchester United, you still have to bow before Chelsea!

Chelsea, playing at home, gave Manchester United a slap in the face, while Mourinho, who was eager for revenge, had unavenged old grudges and added new grudges at Stamford Bridge.

After this game, Liverpool is only 4 points behind Manchester United in front of them. He believes that Liverpool's road to another Premier League championship has officially begun.

Chelsea fans are happy to see this recently talked-about team fall at their feet.

I hope that the loss of this game can let everyone learn something.

Manchester United has only won 1 of the last 14 league visits to Stamford Bridge, and 5 draws and 8 losses in the other 13 games. In all competitions, only 2 games were won in 18 away games against Chelsea.

Just as Ibrahimovic turned to shoot, he was knocked down in the penalty area by Chelsea defender David Luiz. The referee awarded a penalty and also gave Luiz a yellow card.

Two minutes later, Manchester United came back. This time, Lingard received Rashford's cross in the penalty area and headed the ball into the goal, but was hugged tightly by Courtois.

Manchester United's continuous attack finally paid off.

But he was pulled back by Daniel, who hugged Campbell's neck and said in his ear affectionately: "Don't run, little Campbell, did you watch the game on Sunday afternoon?"

The two sides have played 48 Premier League games in history, and Chelsea has won 16, drawn 19 and lost 13, including 10 wins, 9 draws and 5 losses at home.

He turned and walked towards the passage, where the media were waiting in the mixed zone to interview him.

In the 58th minute, Bruno launched an attack. After getting the ball in the midfield, he did not pass to Lingard or Rashford, but chose a sudden straight pass. The football penetrated Chelsea's midfield and defense line and finally fell to Ibrahimovic's feet.

Campbell shrank his neck and tried to slip away by sticking to the wall.

The whole team was not in good shape, even if he tried harder, it would not work. Football is a whole sport after all.

………………

They attacked his favorite team with the most vicious language, but he could not say it back and dared not fight back. He could only be laughed at, like a complete clown, and he didn't like this feeling.

In the 50th minute, Rashford shot hard from the front of the penalty area. Chelsea goalkeeper Courtois did not dare to hold it directly, and punched the ball out with both fists. Bruno, who followed closely, also volleyed, but his shot flew directly into the stands.

When the whistle of the end of the game was blown, the Stamford Bridge stadium, which can accommodate 41,000 people, was filled with warm cheers and applause.

When Costa scored the ball with a beautiful hook, Bruno shook his head helplessly.

Fortunately, Manchester United didn't lose much during Ferguson's time.

But this made a loser's fans very upset.

What really made him sad was after Ferguson retired, especially the season when Moyes led Manchester United, which was simply Campbell's nightmare.

Everyone was overwhelmed by the victory and didn't take Chelsea seriously at all. After all, in the eyes of most Manchester United players, Manchester City and Liverpool, the deadly enemies, were trampled under the feet of Manchester United. How could Chelsea, which ranked sixth in the league, be Manchester United's opponent?

Although he didn't go to the scene, he watched the live broadcast on TV.

He and his followers ridiculed Manchester United in front of Campbell before leaving.

Although Manchester United lost the game, and it was a miserable defeat, Bruno's personal performance was pretty good. After all, both goals scored by Manchester United were related to him. The first goal was a direct assist, and the second was a penalty he scored. So after the game, when most Manchester United players did not score high, Bruno got the highest score of the team - 8 points. The second was the team's midfielder Kante. Although Manchester United lost badly in this game, Kante's performance was still normal. The media gave him a score of 7 points.

Except for Bruno and Kante, the rest of Manchester United's players did not score 7 points.

He knew what questions these media would ask. Many people were waiting to see the joke of his team. Now that they saw it, how could they let him go?

Another reason that made Daniel in a good mood was naturally that Manchester United's road to losing had begun.

If you underestimate such an opponent, you have to pay the price.

The penalty was taken by Bruno, and he kicked the football into Chelsea's goal, and the score was tied to 2:3.

………………

As if this could reflect their neutrality and calm wisdom.

From this incident, we can also see the fence-sitting characteristics of the media. Even the most authoritative media can hardly escape this trait.

The media is like this, always like this. When you win the game, they will flatter you and blow you to the clouds. And when you lose the game, they scold you harshly and throw you into hell.

In the UK, the media also paid attention to Manchester United's tragic defeat.

So after the second half, Manchester United stepped up their offensive.

Ferenc Campbell, who will go to middle school next year, looked at the newsstand for a long time and finally decided not to buy the Monday edition of the Echo. First, the price of 85 pence was not cheap, and second, his favorite team lost the game, and lost badly.

During the halftime break, Mourinho severely criticized the team's performance, thinking that everyone was sleepwalking. He asked the team to strengthen the offense in the second half.

Just after turning the corner, he saw the person he least wanted to see now, Solino Daniel, and his lackeys.

………………

………………

When he could no longer see Daniel and the others, his tears could no longer hold back and slid down his cheeks.

Then Campbell wiped his tears and turned around and ran back home.
