Reborn Almighty Life

Manchester United, who won the League Cup, could not stop, because four days later, they would meet Arsenal in the FA Cup semi-finals. It was about whether the 'Quadruple Crown' could be achieved, and Sir Alex Ferguson had no idea at all.

Dare to be careless!

You know, Manchester United's only draw this season was brought by Arsenal. Arsenal almost captured Old Trafford in that game. If it weren't for Ibrahimovic's equalizing goal before the end, Manchester United's unbeaten record would still be there.

A few less games.

Sir Alex Ferguson and Professor Arsene Wenger competed in the Premier League for 10 years. Before Mourinho and Benitez came to England, their love affair with each other became one of the biggest highlights of the Premier League.

The allusion of "two bullets" comes from the relationship between Ferguson and Wenger. Regardless of the truth or falsehood of this story, every time the two famous coaches meet, it is always a good show.

On October 24, 2004, Manchester United, which had lost Beckham, was at a low ebb, while Arsenal, which had remained unbeaten in 49 Premier League games, came to Old Trafford as the top player in the league. Such a huge contrast made Manchester United

The fans were depressed.

However, Ruud van Nistelrooy's controversial penalty kick and Rooney's goal gave Ferguson the last laugh. Since that game, Arsenal's state went from bad to worse, and they eventually failed to defend the title at the end of the season, handing the throne to the Portuguese.

I have to say that the story between the two teams and the two coaches could not be played for three days and three nights. This is also one of the charms of football.

Ferguson knows the Frenchman very well and knows that he is not easy to mess with. If anything happens while Manchester United is trying its best to win the "Four Crowns", it will be a loss that Manchester United and Ferguson cannot bear.

Therefore, after winning the English League Cup, Manchester United did not even celebrate, and only slightly reduced the intensity of training the next day.

"We have had a perfect start, and no one can take away the honor of the 'Four Crowns' this season!" At the mobilization meeting, Ferguson's hair dryer was on full fire, and the old man issued a battle mobilization order.

"By defeating the Gunners, we will take a solid step towards the 'Four Crowns'. You may never have such an opportunity again in your career. If you don't work hard at this time, you will have no regrets in the future!"

Having coached Manchester United for 20 years, Ferguson is well aware of the difficulty of winning titles on multiple fronts. In 1999, Manchester United won the 'Triple Crown' because of the right time, place and people. Even the heroic spirits of Busby's children were blessing Manchester United. In addition,

In the long 20 years, Manchester United only won the Premier League and FA championships at the same time in 1994 and 1996, achieving the honor of 'Double Champion'.

This season, Manchester United is unprecedentedly powerful and is making rapid progress on four fronts. Major gambling groups in Europe have even stopped betting channels for Manchester United to win the championship. However, Ferguson knows that at this time, he must be more cautious.

The collapse of a dynasty only takes a moment. Before the championship is won, no matter how cautious you are, you can't be too cautious!

Sir Alex Ferguson's hair dryer has obviously sobered up the minds of Manchester United's soldiers. The impetuous mentality brought about by winning the League Cup and consecutive victories on all fronts has been wiped away.

At this time, everyone realized that temporary results did not mean anything. Once they failed before the finals, all their efforts would be in vain.

Competitive sports is a cruel game of winners and losers. Very few runners-up can be remembered, let alone teams that didn't even make it to the finals.

Of course, the runners-up that can impress people often have a strong sense of tragedy, such as Italy in the 1994 World Cup, Brazil in the 1998 World Cup, Bayern at the Nou Camp in 1999, and AC Milan, the background wall of the 2005 Istanbul Miracle.

These teams fell before the championship trophy, which is regrettable and the biggest shame in the history of the team!

The soldiers of Manchester United do not want to be nailed to the pillar of shame in history when they are proud of themselves!

For this reason, the atmosphere at the Manchester United training ground became much more serious. Rooney and Ronaldo, who were originally the most playful, also became extremely serious, with tight faces.

At the beginning, Sir Alex Ferguson was worried that putting too much pressure on his players would be counterproductive.

However, when he saw that Gu Fei was not affected at all and his daily training was still normal, Ferguson's originally worried heart finally dropped.

For the current Manchester United, Gu Fei is the well-deserved core. Manchester United with Gu Fei on the court and without Gu Fei are two completely different teams.

In less than a season, Gu Fei used his perfect performance to become Sir Alex Ferguson's most ideal attacking midfielder!

After coaching Manchester United, Cantona first and then Scholes were both well-known and powerful attacking midfielders in international football. Manchester United's frontcourt attack power has never been weak. In the early years, Sir Alex Ferguson first discovered Ronaldinho.

, Kaka and other Brazilian geniuses, but due to the FA's labor certification policy, Ferguson missed out on Ronaldinho, the world's number one attacking midfielder, and Kaka, the model of modern attacking midfielder, and was once ridiculed by the media.

However, Sir Alex Ferguson now has incomparable confidence in front of the media because he has perhaps the most perfect super attacking midfielder in the world!

As an attacking midfielder, Gu Fei has perfectly inherited the skillful skills of a classical attacking midfielder and his superior tactical qualities. His organization, escape, and passing are among the best in the world. His scalpel-like direct passes are very similar to those of Ruikos.

Tower style.

However, Gu Fei is not like Riquelme's 'slow' classical attacking midfielder. He is stronger and faster than Kaká. His combination of man and ball is almost perfect, so when Gu Fei dribbles the ball

After charging up, the defenders couldn't catch up with Gu Fei even if they ran in vain.

The most disappointing thing is that Gu Fei has superb shooting skills that are comparable to the world's top shooters. Whether it is a powerful long-range shot from outside the penalty area, a header in the small penalty area or a weird lob in progress, the goalkeeper is frightened. Even more so.

What makes the opponent desperate is that Gu Fei also has a precise free kick, but he has scored 12 direct free kicks in most of the season, even more goals than many players!

French newspaper L'Equipe once wrote a report that Gu Fei is the perfect combination of Ronaldo, Vieri, Ronaldinho, Kaká and Rui Costa. Even century champions Pele and Maradona cannot compare to Gu Fei.

It's comprehensive, the only shortcoming is that Gu Fei needs more time to prove his strength!

Facing such a super player, Manchester United's opponents were actually quite desperate, because the defenders had no idea how to defend Gu Fei. His breakthrough, organization, shooting and even strength and speed were overwhelming against any defender.

In order to limit Gu Fei's performance, many teams often adopt the method of double-teaming after the start of the game, but Gu Fei's super vision can distribute the football into space in time. The strength of Manchester United's entire team is reflected at this moment.

To the fullest.

This is also the fundamental reason why Manchester United is stronger when Gu Fei is on the court. Because of Gu Fei's super strength, Manchester United is like playing with one more player. Therefore, when Gu Fei is on the court, Manchester United always wins.

It seems an understatement.

Even if the opponent sets up a bus in front of the goal, Gu Fei can still score through set pieces. Whether it is a direct free kick or an assist to a teammate, the opponent's penalty area is full of chaos.

This season, the reason why Manchester United has been able to advance rapidly on all four fronts is not only due to Manchester United's own strong overall strength, but also Gu Fei's finishing touch.

…………

Four days have passed in a blink of an eye. On Wednesday night, Highbury Stadium will usher in the FA Cup semi-final between Arsenal and Manchester United at home. This also reminds many people of the match at Villa Park eight years ago.

FA Cup semi-final make-up.

In the previous game, the two sides had to rematch after the tie ended 0:0. At that time, Manchester United was already exhausted due to fighting on three fronts!

However, just as Manchester United was always able to achieve a comeback in desperate situations that season, when Manchester United was in a disadvantageous situation, Wong Lo Kat descended to earth, traveled thousands of miles alone, and scored what can be called the most exciting game in the history of the FA Cup.

With the goal, Manchester United defeated Arsenal 1:0 in overtime, ultimately setting the tone for the 'Treble'.

Times have changed, and Arsenal once again stood at the crossroads of Manchester United's destiny. This time the venue was changed to Highbury. This is both a good thing and a huge pressure for Arsenal!

At Highbury, tens of thousands of Gunners fans will become the team's twelfth player, and the players' familiarity with the stadium will also become a weight in the balance of victory and defeat. Manchester United's consecutive victories may bring them more success.

Big psychological pressure!

However, once Arsenal fails to stop Manchester United at home, all Arsenal soldiers and tens of thousands of fans can only watch helplessly as their mortal enemy embarks on a more glorious path to the glory of the 'Four Crowns'.

Therefore, Highbury was full on the match day. Gunners fans hoped to express their support to the team and players in this way, hoping to see Arsenal become the first team to defeat Manchester United this season.

The stingy Arsenal club did not provide tickets for Manchester United fans, and the Football Association was also afraid that fans from both sides would cause trouble in this game that attracted worldwide attention, so they simply refused to allow Manchester United fans to come within two miles of Highbury on the match day.

.

Eight hours before the start of the game, bars and shops around Highbury are not allowed to sell alcoholic beverages, let alone wine.

For this semi-final, the Football Association attaches great importance to it. After all, with the continuous development of the Premier League in recent years, the FA Cup, the oldest football competition in the world, has become bleak.

In order to regain the glory of the FA Cup, the Football Association of England naturally spared no effort to promote it, and the match between Manchester United and Arsenal has become a top priority!

Dozens of TV stations around the world, including China TV Station 5, Sky TV, ESPN, etc., will broadcast this match to the world. The huge influence it brings will make the Football Association and the two clubs smile from ear to ear!

…………

Returning to Highbury, the tsunami of boos formed by tens of thousands of fans did not make Gu Fei feel the slightest fear. On the contrary, he was observing the pattern of Highbury with great interest.

In a sense, Highbury, which has a larger inclination of the stands and a shorter distance between the stands and the pitch, can give away players a great shock. This is also an important factor in Highbury becoming the home of the European Devils.

However, Gu Fei, who has excellent psychological quality, and the Manchester United players took the boos from Highbury as applause for themselves, and everyone was excitedly waiting for the game to start.

Henry, who was sitting on the bench, looked at Gu Fei with envy, because he knew that Gu Fei might achieve the ‘Four Crowns’ in his first year of joining professional football, which most players cannot experience!

Although Henry is the soul of the Gunners, to be fair, Arsenal is far behind Manchester United in terms of strength. Coupled with Henry's absence due to injury, the gap between the two sides is getting wider and wider!

At Arsenal, Henry has already realized his dream of winning the League, FA Cup and League Cup. In addition, he followed the French national team to win the World Cup and European Cup as the main force. Henry only has the Champions League trophy left in his career!

Arsenal's mediocre record in the Champions League is closely related to the club's plan to cut costs and build a new stadium. This is what gave Henry the idea of ​​leaving Highbury and looking for a Champions League winning team.

Gu Fei's high spirits obviously further stimulated Henry!

Gu Fei didn't know that Henry, who had been staring at him, had many thoughts flashing through his mind. He was somewhat regretful that he could not fight directly with the King of Highbury.

Gu Fei knew that Arsenal fans would bid farewell to their king this summer, and this transfer was the beginning of Arsenal selling their captain to build a stadium!

With the referee's whistle, the 2006-07 English FA Cup semi-finals, Manchester United's away game against Arsenal officially begins!

Manchester United, who had just defeated Arsenal in this stadium, were not afraid and launched a fierce attack on Arsenal's penalty area from the beginning. Gu Fei, who scored a hat-trick at Highbury last time, became the focus of the audience.

focus!

Only five minutes into the game, Gu Fei easily got a kicking opportunity at the edge of the penalty area. His long-range shot was shocking. Even if Lehmann concentrated, he still couldn't save this violent long-range shot that hit the theoretical blind spot of the goal!

The Arsenal fans who had just started singing cheers were like ducks with their necks stuck, and the entire Highbury fell into terrible silence for an instant!

The process of Gu Fei's goal was replayed on the big screen. Gu Fei's powerful shooting force caused the football to deform, and the ball speed even exceeded 180km/h. No one could have saved the shot!

Arsenal fans know football and know the excitement of this goal, but they are unable to cheer for their opponents, and the situation once fell into embarrassment.

Gu Fei and his teammates didn't celebrate for long. After all, it's their home court. Once you have the advantage, you shouldn't be too arrogant, so as not to cause trouble!

After the game restarted, Arsenal's players obviously could not easily get out of the chaos of conceding a goal. Gu Fei still easily regained possession of the ball and fully occupied the advantage on the field.

This season, after Manchester United takes the lead, the victory of the game belongs to the Red Devils.

When Arsenal, who were lagging behind, had no choice but to press out and attack, the outcome of the game was already doomed!

Although Professor Wenger looked calm in the scene, who could understand the despair in his heart?
