Reborn Almighty Life
[0773 chapter] tit for tat monthly pass and
On the evening of November 4, 2007, the weather in London was a bit rainy and the temperature was about 5 degrees Celsius, but the surroundings of the Emirates Stadium were in full swing and the air was soaring into the sky!
More than 60,000 Arsenal fans poured into the Emirates Stadium, and even more than 10,000 fans gathered in squares, bars and other places around the stadium to watch the live broadcast. The fans hope to use this method to express themselves and the team.
The attitude of advancing and retreating together.
Although Arsenal's record has been ups and downs in the past two years, relying on the reputation accumulated over the years, Wenger's team still attracts countless fans with its beautiful playing style and ranks among the top in box office appeal in the Premier League.
After moving into the Emirates Stadium, although Arsenal increased ticket prices, the fans remain enthusiastic and the Emirates Stadium is still one of the stadiums with the best attendance in the Premier League.
This time, Arsenal faced Manchester United, who were about to go 50 unbeaten games in the Premier League, at the Emirates Stadium, which completely aroused the enthusiasm of the fans. Naturally, the Gunners' fans did not want their players to fight alone. They hoped to become the tenth player on the field.
The two helped the team defeat Manchester United and ended Manchester United's journey to create history.
For this reason, the Arsenal Club even risked being punished by the Football Association and the Premier League and did not open ticket purchase channels to fans of the visiting team. Today, almost all the tickets at the Emirates Stadium were sold to Arsenal fans.
In other words, tonight, in addition to having to fight against their old rival Arsenal, Manchester United also needs to deal with the huge boos of more than 60,000 home team fans. This will be a huge test for Manchester United players.
…………
There are still two hours before the official start of the game, and the fans have already begun to eat simple hamburger meals near the stadium before preparing to enter the stadium.
In the next few hours, the emotions of all fans will switch violently between high, low and even crazy, which is undoubtedly a huge drain on physical strength.
Today, Arsenal will wear a dark red jersey symbolizing the arsenal, while Manchester United will wear a white away jersey. Therefore, the Gunners fans will appear in the stadium wearing dark red jerseys, and the largest number of them is Henry's 14
Jersey number.
In world football, the No. 14 jersey is a very special case, because many players wearing the No. 14 jersey are unknown, and only a few special stars make this number shine.
The first superstar to immortalize No. 14 was Cruyff, the uncrowned king of the Netherlands. This representative of the Dutch total offense and total defense tactics led Ajax and the Dutch team to create an orange storm in world football. In the end,
Let the whole world remember the number 14.
Henry, who regards the Dutchman as his idol, chose the No. 14 jersey after coming to Arsenal. The French forward's outstanding performance in the Arsenal also gave the No. 14 jersey a special meaning.
It can be seen from this that the greatness of the jersey is not only because of the size of the number, but also because of which player it is worn on?
Henry's jersey has always been one of Arsenal's best-selling peripheral products. In every Arsenal home game, the No. 14 jersey has become a beautiful sight in the stands.
After the No. 14 jersey, Cesc Fabregas' No. 10 jersey is also the favorite of many young fans. After all, Fabregas is still young and has gradually grown into the core of the team and is deeply loved by the fans.
…………
There was still an hour before the start of the game, and the Emirates Stadium was already packed. The noisy sound made the entire stadium like a boiling volcano, which made people feel excited even through the screen.
This game will be broadcast by 200 TV stations in more than 150 countries and regions, covering more than 600 million people, which is almost one-tenth of the world's population.
For such an ordinary Premier League game, if it weren't for Manchester United and Arsenal's reputation bonus, plus the ownership of an unbeaten record, it really wouldn't be able to attract so much attention.
Probably this is the top game besides the Champions League finals, World Cup, and European Championships that attracts fans all over the world!
China TV Sports Channel switched the camera to the scene when the players from both sides started to leave the hotel for the stadium. As a signal provider, Sky Sports provided clear aerial signals for various TV stations, allowing fans around the world to enjoy
A feast has arrived!
"Although there is still an hour before the start of the game, the entire stadium has turned into a dark red ocean. The Gunners fans wearing the No. 14 jersey are like dark red lava flowing in this modern stadium!" said Wong Tai Sin.
Looking at the TV screen, feeling the enthusiasm that almost overflowed the screen, he said: "The Premier League has become unique in the world in creating a fan atmosphere. The profound fan culture allows fans to sing for their favorite players in the stands with enthusiasm.
The fans are actually one of the important forces of the Premier League!"
As a senior fan and currently the top football commentator in the country, Wong Tai Sin's professional quality is not only reflected in his commentary on games, but also in his professional and unique views on football.
In China, a systematic fan culture atmosphere has not yet been formed. During domestic leagues and national team games, the enthusiasm and participation of fans are not high enough. This may be related to the introverted national character of the Chinese people.
However, with the development of the times and the continuous progress of Chinese football, the domestic fan atmosphere is getting better and better, which is a good trend.
"European professional football has a history of a hundred years. Over the years, fans have played tricks, formed a good interaction with professional football, and achieved mutual success!" Teacher Zhang Lu still serves as Wong Tai Sin's partner to explain this game to Chinese fans.
The combination of the two commentators can be regarded as one of the ceilings of China's domestic football commentary.
The commentary of the two people is not limited to the game itself, but extends to the thinking of the football industry. Not only ordinary fans listen with interest, but even some professionals can resonate with it.
Under the professional commentary of the two commentators, players from both sides appeared on the court and began to warm up, which triggered a fanatical reaction from the fans at the scene.
Whenever Arsenal players touch the ball, the stands are filled with cheers, and when Manchester United players practice shooting, the entire stadium can only hear deafening boos.
"The clear love and hatred among Gunners fans makes the next game even more exciting!" Wong Tai Sin introduced the grievances between the two teams over the years to the fans, and he did not forget to give credit to the fans.
Putting aside those ancient conflicts that are vaguely remembered, most of the grievances between Manchester United and Arsenal came from the beginning of the Premier League era. In the past 15 years, the two teams have shown their love for each other to fans around the world.
Enemies and rival traits.
In 1990, Manchester United and Arsenal met in the league. As a result, Nigel Winterbourne's foul caused the players of the two teams to fight irrationally. In the end, 21 people were fighting in a group on the field. After the game, the Football Association
Point deductions were imposed on both teams, thus starting a 17-year history of incompatible grudges between the two teams.
In 1992, the Premier League was established. Manchester United, led by Sir Alex Ferguson, seemed to have found a way to win and became the Premier League champion for two consecutive years, thus beginning its era of dominating the Premier League.
In the 1994-1995 season, Blackburn Rovers, who spent heavily to build the team, almost bet on the team's century-old luck, interrupted Manchester United's three consecutive championships, and unexpectedly won the Premier League championship. At that time, Arsenal was still fighting for third place in the league.
name, struggling to qualify for the Champions League.
In the following two seasons, Ferguson and his Class of 1992 made a comeback. They once again won two consecutive championships, and within five years of the start of the Premier League, they won the championship for four years!
At that time, many people were disappointed with the strength of Manchester United. The good age structure of Manchester United's personnel and the young and powerful Ferguson gave Manchester United an aura of defeating others without fighting.
However, a variable appeared at this time!
Arsene Wenger, a gentle Frenchman who looks like a suit and tie, became the head coach of Arsenal, and the last team he coached was Fuso Nagoya Grampus.
The English football circle knew nothing about this team, so they knew nothing about Wenger. They even thought that Wenger was a liar and that the top management of Arsenal Club had been deceived.
Tony Adams, the boss of the Arsenal team, also publicly expressed his dissatisfaction with the coach when Wenger first arrived: "At that time, I was thinking, who is he? Does this Frenchman understand football? Look at him wearing
With his gentle look and glasses, he looks like a middle school teacher. How can he lead us to play football? I even doubt whether he can speak English."
What no one expected was that the plot would take a turn soon after. Wenger not only won the absolute support of the locker room, but also the picky home fans and the British reporters who loved making big news. They also admired Wenger.
Falling to the ground.
Wenger is not only a master tactician, but also an expert in sports nutrition, and he is also proficient in how to deal with people. The relationship between him and his players is always very harmonious, which is unprecedented in Arsenal's century-old history. Compared with
While the previous coaches had the same boring training content, Wenger had his own unique approach. For example, Wenger significantly reduced the previously mandatory long-distance running and instead asked the players to train through swimming, which greatly increased the players' interest.
, Wenger's prestige has gradually been established.
However, the British media is not easy to deal with. As an "eccentric outsider", Wenger's provocations - especially those media that have been conquered by Alex Ferguson's style - have intensified: Why is a
The French want to come to Britain to cause trouble? Why do you dare to encourage them?
Did the club's top management change the team's management rules? Why do they even have to control what kind of banners the fans at Highbury Stadium carry? These inexplicable questions often surround Wenger's ears. Once the problems hidden in these words are not handled well, it will
It will cause an uproar like a time bomb detonating.
In front of the all-pervasive British media, Wenger did not show any irrational side at all, and always showed himself as a humble gentleman. His frankness and straightforwardness soon won the support of players and fans, and the media gradually gave up mocking him.
A boring person who can't find a selling point.
However, when Wenger led Arsenal to defeat Manchester United and win the Premier League championship in the 1997-98 season, the grudge between him and Ferguson was forged, and the mutual attacks between the two in the media became a major issue in those seasons.
One of the most beautiful scenery in the Premier League.
Later, when being interviewed by the media, faced with the media reporter's difficult question "If there is a bullet in the gun, should it be left for Wenger or Victoria?", Ferguson blurted out: "Can you give me two bullets?",
It is enough to show his extreme dissatisfaction with Wenger!
Under the subtle influence of the two head coaches, every game between the two teams is like sparks hitting the earth, full of passion, and has become a highlight of the Premier League.
In February 1997, Arsenal forward Ian Wright and Manchester United goalkeeper Schmeichel clashed over a ball, which kicked off the bad blood between the players of the two teams.
In 1998, Manchester United defeated Arsenal 2:1 in an away game. Captain Keane scored two goals. An angry Vieira deliberately hit Keane with his head and was sent off with a red card.
In March 2003, Manchester United drew 2:2 away from Arsenal. During the game, Arsenal defender Campbell elbowed Manchester United forward Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. The former was severely punished by the FA, including missing the subsequent FA Cup final.
In September 2003, Manchester United drew 1:1 with Arsenal at home. Ruud van Nistelrooy missed a penalty kick. Arsenal defender Keown used his celebration to deliberately hit Ruud van Nistelrooy. In the same game, Ruud van Nistelrooy also tricked Vier
La received a red card.
In October 2004, Manchester United defeated Arsenal 2-0 at home, ending the Gunners' 49-game unbeaten streak. After the game, Arsenal players threw food on Ferguson in the tunnel.
Now, Manchester United comes to Arsenal's home court with an unbeaten record of 49 Premier League games. What kind of performance the players from both sides will perform on the field has become the most anticipated thing by the outside world.
Although the two head coaches did not accept interviews from the media about the game before the game, the atmosphere of impending rain was gradually created, and it was destined to be an extremely tragic game!
In less than half an hour of warm-up, the players from both sides ended the warm-up in a tacit understanding and returned to the locker room to change their game equipment. The fans gradually took their seats and waited for the official start of the game.
In the locker room, Ferguson did not blow the Ferguson brand hairdryer for which he was famous, but simply said: "Crush those sons of bitches for me!" This ignited the passion of the Manchester United generals.
, a group of young men, led by Gu Fei, rushed out of the visiting team's locker room!
Next door, Wenger also does not need to make lengthy mobilizations, because he and his players all know the significance of this game!
If Manchester United were to break Arsenal's unbeaten record in the Premier League at Arsenal's home court, it would undoubtedly be a shame for Arsenal, and everyone present would be placed on the pillar of shame in Arsenal's history.
Perhaps, in another 20 or 30 years, as long as Manchester United's unbeaten record still exists, Arsenal will be used as a backdrop every time. This is undoubtedly a kind of suffering!
