Chapter 332 Sequelae (5-1)

Yesterday, many English media were very happy because Arsenal entered the Champions League semi-finals. But today's media is completely different.

At that time, some media even predicted whether Premier League clubs would occupy three of the top four places in the Champions League. Although it seems unlikely, after all, Manchester United will go to play Bayern away. And they lost to Bayern at home in the first round.

But the British media were very confident at the time. They felt that occupying two places in the Champions League semi-finals was a foregone conclusion.

In their analysis, Blackburn's promotion was not a problem.

Therefore, when the game was over and Manchester United and Blackburn were eliminated from the Champions League, George and Ferguson had not said anything, but the British media had already taken the initiative to help them fight for justice.

The British media is the most developed media in Europe, and the effect produced after they were angry is extraordinary.

Various reports appeared in the media.

"The referee deprived Blackburn of the chance to advance!"

"The Champions League is full of misjudgments!"

"The diving prince - Aimar!"

"UEFA, how will you compensate Blackburn?"

"George, the victim of misjudgment!"

"When will misjudgment stay away from football?"

The British media has done many things that George himself has not thought about. A massive condemnation campaign quickly began in the British media. Of course, the title of "Diving King" that George gave Aimar seems to follow him.

Not only the British media, but also many Italian and Spanish media reported George's words after the game.

Such an obvious dive appeared in the Champions League quarter-finals, and because of this dive, two red cards and a penalty appeared. It can be said that Blackburn's chance of advancement was completely ruined.

Blackburn is not a European giant team. If teams like Real Madrid and Milan encountered such a penalty, the European media would have exploded long ago. But even so, after Blackburn encountered a misjudgment, the impact was still very large.

Blackburn just lost its boss, and you guys screwed Blackburn on the same day.

The referee of the game even received death threats from Blackburn fans after the game.

So this time UEFA reacted quickly. They immediately found the referee and held a hearing. Listen to the referee's opinion.

UEFA made a decision soon after. It immediately stated that this was a misjudgment, the referee's mistake. Although it was not a deliberate mistake by the referee, UEFA still banned the referee on duty.

Of course, this ban is only a European ban. And there are only four games, just a warning.

Another thing is that Cudicini's red card was cancelled. Of course, Sagnol's red card was maintained, but there was no additional punishment for Sagnol. In fact, Sagnol's pushing action is likely to be punished. But UEFA gave Blackburn enough face this time.

And Aimar's diving did not impose additional penalties. UEFA means that there is no rule to ban players who dive.

This made George very dissatisfied.

George was very angry about UEFA's decision when facing reporters. Especially about Aimar's penalty. "I think this is too unfair. The cost of diving is too low. After diving, if the referee doesn't find it, it will be a penalty. If it is found, it will be a yellow card at most. This deal is too cost-effective. Isn't this condoning the rampant diving?"

"And a diving completely changes the trend of a game. There will be no suspension for the players who dive after the game. What kind of rule is this? There will definitely be more and more players diving in the future."

Diving will become more and more an art in the future.

In the Premier League alone, there are more and more players who dive. Including Pires and Drogba in Blackburn, they are the leaders of diving in history. Of course, when it comes to diving, it is impossible to bypass the masters of Manchester United, such as Van Nistelrooy, Rooney, and Ronaldinho.

This is also because the cost of diving is too low.

Like Aimar this time, at most he will be criticized. The price paid and the results obtained are completely incomparable.

…………

No matter how unfair it is to be eliminated, life still has to go on.

After the game against Valencia, George did not have a little rest time. He was about to play in the Premier League.

On April 21, Blackburn played Sunderland at home.

Sunderland this season is a dark horse like last season. The momentum is as fierce as last season. But compared with Blackburn, Sunderland is not Blackburn's opponent at all.

Playing Sunderland at home should be a sure win.

But perhaps affected by the last game, Blackburn lost 0-1 at home.

George did everything he could in this game. But the impact of losing to Valencia is not so easy to eliminate. Everyone's actions on the field were unconsciously a little big, or there were some problems.

In the end, Sunderland scored a goal.

0-1, lost 0-1 at the most important moment.

This made George very angry.

Fortunately, Manchester United was tied 1-1 by Manchester City in the Manchester derby. Manchester City is now a favorite to be relegated, but they don't need to encourage themselves against their city rivals Manchester United. At Old Trafford, they played with great force.

It turned out that they were able to draw with Manchester United at Old Trafford.

George was relieved a little. After the 34th round of the Premier League, Blackburn still led the standings by seven points.

After a week of rest, the 35th round of the Premier League began on April 28.

Manchester United started earlier than Blackburn, and Manchester United defeated Middlesbrough 2-0 away. The closer it gets to the end of the season, the better Manchester United's condition is. Ferguson is really old and wise, and he always starts to really work hard at the end of the season.

George thinks that Blackburn has now gotten rid of all the shadows of losing to Valencia.

Blackburn went to St. James' Park to challenge Newcastle United this time.

After Robson joined Newcastle United, Newcastle United's performance did not improve immediately. Newcastle is now ranked 12th in the Premier League, which is completely inconsistent with the old strong team Newcastle.

As long as they win this game, Blackburn's league championship will basically be no problem.

After playing Newcastle, Blackburn still has three opponents left. They are all strong opponents, West Ham United, Manchester United, and Arsenal. But with three rounds left, it is impossible for an opponent to overtake the seven-point advantage.

Therefore, George is determined to win this game.

And the Blackburn players also vowed to win this game.

But things are always not as expected. Blackburn went to Newcastle and lost to the opponent 1:2.

Blackburn only lost two games in the previous 30 league games. But in the final stage, they lost two games in a row, which slowly disappeared the original advantage.

After the 35th round of the Premier League, Blackburn's advantage over Manchester United was only four points.

After four points, the media in Manchester became active again.

"Blackburn is broken!"

"This is a young team. From the head coach to the players, they are all very young. They have no experience in winning the top league championship, and their ability to bear is completely insufficient."

"This can be seen from the game with Valencia. Blackburn had a good situation, but a misjudgment made Blackburn completely lose all its advantages."

"After losing to Valencia, it was another two consecutive defeats. Blackburn is finished. The young coach George Levy has no way to deal with it. I believe that after a direct collision with Manchester United, the top spot this season will completely change hands."

There are so many media outlets saying that Blackburn is finished.

They seem to have forgotten that just half a month ago, they were still touting George as a famous European coach. But after the poor results in the game, all kinds of criticisms filled the media.

Many people even linked it to Jack Walker's death.

They all said that Jack Walker was Blackburn's God.

The death of Jack Walker took away Blackburn's soul. Since Jack Walker's death, Blackburn's performance has plummeted.

They think there is a necessary connection.

Anyway, the Premier League championship that was previously stable seems to be gone. Except for Blackburn's own media, other media commented in a mocking tone.

At this time, you can see a person's popularity.

Although Keegan, the good guy, was reversed by 12 points. But his popularity is much better than George. Although there are many media ridiculed him, more media only praised Ferguson and did not criticize Keegan. Instead, there are more regrets.

Who made Keegan a good guy in English football and has a good popularity.

But George is different.

George is so young and has achieved such good results, which is already red-eyed. In addition, George is outspoken in front of the media. I don't know how many media reporters he has criticized. I don't know how many clubs he has ridiculed? Almost all opponents in the Premier League have been criticized by George.

Therefore, once George's performance is not good, these media will besiege George.

Mark Lawrenson even wrote "The bursting of the bubble!" in his column. It is said that George's success is the biggest bubble in English football in recent years, and now he is finally going to be beaten back to his original form.

All the media are waiting for Blackburn to lose again in the 36th round.

But fortunately, this time they did not do as they wished. Blackburn faced West Ham United away and did not lose again. A score of 2-0 completely defeated West Ham United, which was troubled by internal and external troubles. Redknapp is estimated to be unable to stay in West Ham United next season.

On the other side, Manchester United is still strong. They defeated Derby County 3-0 at home, and the gap with Blackburn is still four points.
