Chapter 360 A Moving Scene

Manchester Stadium.

Everyone was staring at the player on the court, who was running frantically. His speed was so fast that his teammates behind him couldn't keep up.

The fans in the stands were exclaiming, they couldn't understand why this Derby County player was running towards Manchester City's coaching bench, and they were worried about the coach standing on the sidelines.

That guy seems to be heading for our Wansheng, what the hell is he doing!

Others have similar doubts!

What did he do when a Derby County player rushed to Manchester City's bench after scoring a goal in the game?

provocative! ?

Demonstration! ?

Or, was he confused and went to the wrong place?

"What the hell is he doing?"

The referee Boll was afraid of what would happen, so he followed, and his heart was full of anxiety.

Under everyone's attention, Bolton-Leit rushed to the sidelines and stopped in front of Wansheng.

"Huh...he still has reason."

Many people are relieved, as long as they are not crazy.

The referee Boll chased after him and was about to persuade him to say something. At this moment, Bolton Reiter took two steps forward, walked to Wan Sheng, stretched out his arms and hugged him.

"Boss! Boss!"

He choked like a child.

Seeing this scene, many people were deeply moved. They suddenly felt that they were thinking too much. Wansheng was Bolton-Leiter's former teacher, so how could he do anything to his teacher!

A group of people who followed him gathered around and watched.

All cameras are pointed.

Hearing Leiter's choking sound, Wan Sheng patted his shoulder and couldn't help but wet the corners of his eyes, praising him, "You did a good job, Bolton, your goal is beautiful!"

Burton-Leiter. He really is like his own child.

When he was an assistant coach at Derby County a few years ago, Bolton Reiter was training under his own hands. At that time, he was a player who was completely unable to play in the first team and was an unqualified professional player.

After more than half a year of training, Leiter grew up step by step. Take over Gregory's pointer. He was given a chance to play, he lived up to his trust, broke out in form, and became a major contributor to Derby County's relegation.

By the next Championship season, he had also become Derby County's signature striker.

The relationship that has been together for nearly three years is not just talking about, but recalling the past of the master and the apprentice together. Wan Sheng couldn't help but redden his eyes.

"Boss. Boss..." Leiter kept choking.

Wan Sheng is also comforting him.

"Boss, after you left, I have been working hard for a few years, as you said. Only those who train more seriously can succeed, I always remember this saying."

Leiter choked up for a long time before he raised his head and said firmly, "I envy other people. I can leave without worry and go to other teams. I can get a higher salary and win more championships. However, I still Not leaving because Derby is my home!"

"Boss, you think I do this, right?"

Looking at Wright's inquiring eyes, Wan Sheng was very moved. When he left Derby County, he was also very reluctant. It's a pity that professional football is like this. Not to mention the conflict with the club's chairman Pierce, he did not belong to Derby. County, for his coaching career, he is also destined to go to a wider stage.

Bolton-Leiter chose to remain loyal to Derby County.

This is his choice.

Everyone has to give something to their choices, and what Burton-Leiter has paid is loyalty, a career.

With the departure of familiar teammates and the relegation of the team, Leiter was under a lot of pressure and distress. Maybe he thought about leaving, but in the end he stayed.

Seeing Leite's firm eyes, Wan Sheng also admired it very much. He didn't regret his choice, but was very proud.

Wan Sheng took a deep breath, calmed down, and said seriously, "Boton, this is your belief! Everyone has their own beliefs, and there is no right or wrong. The main thing is that you have worked hard and you are worthy of your own heart. Believe it is right!"

"You are a good boy and an excellent professional player. Stick to your own path, don't get lost, I believe you will be very successful!"

"Come on! Bolton!"

Wan Sheng said with a smile.

Leiter was nervous. After hearing these words, his face relaxed and he grinned.

Laughed.

————

Almost all cameras captured the scene of Wansheng and Leite hugging and talking.

The noise of the stadium made it difficult for people to know what was said, but the reddish eyes of the two were enough to guess what was going on.

Many people were moved by it.

Some Derby County fans can't help but recall the time when Wan Sheng was in charge. At that time, the entire Derby County team was positive. They worked hard to win game after game, defeated strong opponents one by one, and finally won the proud championship. .

Those were two great seasons.

In the past two seasons, the relationship between Wansheng and Derby County players has also been forged, and Wansheng has left a deep impression on Derby County fans.

In the football world, when a manager comes to coach a team, there are always two extremes.

After some coaches coach a team and leave, all they get is scolding. Even if he leads the team well, it will not impress the players and fans; some coaches will leave a deep impression on a team. , let the fans reluctantly and regret his departure, and let every player under him remember it deeply.

Wansheng belongs to the latter.

After the game, almost all the media reported on this. Compared with this touching scene, after Manchester City defeated Derby County, it became less important to win three consecutive league victories.

At the same time, in the media reports, of course, the focus of the third round of the Premier League: Liverpool vs. Chelsea!

This is a heavyweight fight!

As early as the start of the third round, the media of the two sides started a war of words, including reports about the situation of the two teams, and Gerrard's injury became a problem that everyone paid attention to.

Before the war, bad news came from Liverpool. Captain Gerrard was found to have a fractured toe. Although he could barely play, he needed a period of rest after that.

Gerrard was injured in the first leg of the Champions League qualifying match between Liverpool and Toulouse, and his opponents sent Sirex to mark him throughout the game. In a fight, Gerrard was kicked in the foot, there was pain.

After a post-match scan, Gerrard's toe showed a very small fracture.

Because the game with Chelsea is too important, according to the arrangement of coach Benitez. Gerrard will not be able to get a rest. He can only continue to play with injuries, but after that, he needs to rest for a week or two.

To this end, Liverpool coach Benitez said, "After playing Chelsea, Gerrard needs to rest for a week or two. He will train, but he will not be able to participate in England's matches."

"I'll talk to McLaren. I'm sure he understands. Our doctor told me it's not a big risk for Gerrard to play at Chelsea in this situation, but after that, he needs to rest."

In the face of the red and blue battle, Liverpool star Finnan said that although playing Toulouse in the middle of the week is very physical, the Red Army will adjust to its best state in time. "Playing Toulouse was the hardest game I've played in a long time, a lot of people were very tired after the game. But the game against Chelsea is until Sunday, there is time to recover, they also played in the middle of the week, so everyone no excuse."

With many Liverpool fans worried about Gerrard's injury, the red and blue battle began, and finally Liverpool drew 1:1 with Chelsea at Anfield.

No one thought that the best performer in the game was Gerrard, who had a fractured toe.

After the game, "Sky Sports" and "The Sun" both voted the best vote for Liverpool captain Gerrard, the media commented: his "foot is full of inspiration" - Gerrard is with a bone fracture The pain shows inspiration.

This Chelsea-Liverpool battle continues to maintain the same number of ways in the past. Chelsea did not change its function because of the change of Grant. After the start of the game, Liverpool mainly attacked Chelsea and waited for an opportunity to counterattack. Past records have proved that the earlier the goal is scored, the better the chance for the Red Army to win. If the Blues have resisted for 20 minutes, the home advantage will gradually diminish.

Only in the 6th minute, Gerrard kicked off a furious shot to start the Red Army's offensive frenzy. In the 15th minute, his direct pass assisted Babel to score.

"If you want to win the championship, the most important thing is to make a good start." For this goal, Gerrard set an example for his teammates with his injured leg.

In the 26th minute, he returned to the penalty area to make a clearance. Facing the threat of hitting his head, Drogba made a sliding tackle, kicked the ball out of the sideline, and put a tackle on Mikel in the midfield battle. , this is a card-taking action, but on the other hand, it shows Gerrard's strong desire to win.

In the second half, Gerrard continued to attack Chelsea. Three long shots went slightly wide, and another two helped his teammates Kuyt and Riise to create good chances. 5 shots, 2 key passes, no pause between the two penalty areas The run almost pushed the Red Army to victory, but unfortunately... A controversial penalty by the referee ruined the entire game.

Liverpool's 3 points, Gerrard's mood can be imagined, "A very, very unfair penalty gave Chelsea a point. I feel that the referee did not perform well today, Chelsea players gave him a lot of pressure, I think he finally surrendered."

Regrettably but with undiminished confidence, Gerrard's image of a tough guy sublimated at Anfield. "Today we proved that we have the strength to challenge for the championship." Gerrard scored a beautiful free kick in the opening game and contributed an assist in the second game. Gerrard is in great shape, unfortunately he has to rest for a while to fully recover from the fracture.

A puddle at Old Trafford in 2005 left Gerrard with a fractured truce. It took a long time to regain his form after his comeback. Now fans can only pray for the healthy and sharp Red Army captain to return as soon as possible.

After the game, Liverpool coach Benitez was very dissatisfied, and he attacked referee Styles, believing that the latter's decision to award a penalty to Chelsea was a mistake.

In the 61st minute of the game, Liverpool defender Finnan collided with the opponent's Malouda in the penalty area. After the latter fell to the ground, Styles awarded a penalty.

Benitez couldn't believe his eyes, "It's unbelievable, I think it was a wrong judgment."

"Unbelievable, how can you change a game like this?" Asked if he was challenging the referee's decision, Benitez said: "No, it's clear, he can watch the video and maybe understand why we're so disappointed. .Unbelievable."

"The opponent was good, but we still created some chances, the game was under our control, but you can't explain these kinds of penalties. Maybe the referee is under pressure all the time, but I won't say much."

Captain Gerrard was not so subtle. He directly accused the referee of an unfair penalty. "I think a very, very unfair penalty gave Chelsea a point. I feel that the referee did not perform well today, and the Chelsea players gave him a lot of pressure. , I think he gave in in the end. But I think today we proved we can challenge for the title."

Speaking of foot injuries, Gerrard said he could not play the next England friendly.

"I'm looking ok because I had a lockout before the game and I need to rest and if tomorrow's scan shows my fracture is healed, I'll go to England, but I don't think it's possible because of the three days ago. The scans already showed my toe was cracked."

But no matter how good Gerrard's performance was, or Liverpool's misjudgment led to a draw, Liverpool drew with Chelsea in the end. Liverpool only scored 1 point in the second round, and Chelsea only scored 1 point in the third round.

then……

"The defending champion Manchester City took advantage of the fisherman's advantage, won three battles and three victories, accumulated 9 points, and ranked first in the league!"

The Sun said so.

After defeating Derby County, Manchester City won all the first three rounds, accumulated all 9 points, scored 8 goals and conceded only 1 goal, and topped the league table with a strong result.

The second place in the league is Chelsea, who previously ranked first by the number of goals. After the draw with Liverpool, they are two points less than Manchester City.

For example, Arsenal and Manchester United, two traditional Premier League teams, did not perform well in the first few rounds. Manchester United drew two games, and Arsenal lost to Manchester City.

Some other teams were also tied, and they lost. There were only three rounds of the league. The media was surprised to find that Manchester City had become the best performing team again.

However, Wansheng's statement about the team's ranking at the top of the league is somewhat reasonable, "We were originally the first, Chelsea only has one more goal difference than us, so now we have the top spot, and it's nothing unusual."

"We won two league titles in a row, and many people asked me if we would focus on the Champions League this season. I'm sorry to disappoint everyone, but we will still focus on the domestic league, because the league is the one The foundation of the team."

Wan Sheng told reporters seriously.

Afterwards, the reporters present wanted to interview Wansheng but could not find it, because Wansheng had already taken a plane to Monaco the next day.

The draw for the UEFA Champions League will take place in Monte Carlo, Las Vegas. (To be continued ~^~)
