Chapter 815 Winning Streak

When it comes to the final kick, the legs suddenly become weak, which is quite cruel for players, coaches and fans.

Manchester United was perfectly blocked by their opponents with less than 10 minutes left before their 14th consecutive victory. This disappointed some media and delighted others.

However, both Pochettino and Sun Wu are mentally prepared and have the same attitude towards this... This is not necessarily a bad thing.

The previous 13 consecutive victories have put a heavy psychological burden on the team. It sounds like they are trying to kill the gods, but in fact almost all the players are trembling with fear, and the strings in their minds are tight.

If this win ties Arsenal's winning streak, will the fans, media and even the club ask the team to set a new winning streak in the next round of double red games?

Even if no one applies pressure, the players will take the initiative to put pressure on themselves... Although they lose points, it can calm the team's mentality. Pochettino thinks so, and Sun Wu, who has received psychological counseling, also thinks so. .

Of course, the key to their calm view of the draw is... Liverpool lost points again this round.

Two hours after Manchester United was held to a draw by Southampton, Liverpool was held to a 1-1 away draw by Cardiff.

In Patrick's words, Manchester United's power in the Premier League is too strong, so strong that it has affected fairness and justice... Gee, this is quite sour.

Cardiff City's head coach is Manchester United legend Solskjaer. The goal was scored by Michael Keane, who was on loan from Manchester United. He beat Piszczek with a header from the back during a corner kick and nodded in front. It was former Manchester United striker Campbell who finished the assist behind the ball.

However, what Patrick said cannot be wrong, because in this round of the league, Chelsea also lost points, and they lost 3 points. They were defeated 1-0 by Everton, the famous tough guy in the Premier League.

It was Miralas who scored the winner, and Cleverley, a member of Manchester United's championship team last season, who provided the assist.

When Manchester United was tied and lost points, their former teammates were all helping... Unfortunately, Manchester City did not lose points. Although Evans once equalized the score, Manchester City still swept West Bromwich Albion 5-1.

After losing the Manchester Derby, Manchester City started a winning streak, with eight consecutive wins in all competitions. There is no big suspense about qualifying for the Champions League. The league points have unknowingly caught up and are currently ranked second with 35 points. , only 6 points away from Manchester United at the top of the list.

After returning to Manchester, Pochettino uncharacteristically allowed the players to rest for two days. He hoped that everyone could adjust their mentality to deal with the double red meeting.

But before the Double Red Meeting,

There was also a Champions League group match. Pochettino put together a lineup with a mix of main players and substitutes, but Sun Wu did not start two consecutive games. This time he did not appear on the bench. He went to Anfield.

In the last round of the group stage, Liverpool had a difficult away draw with Juventus. As long as they can win Malmo at home in the final round, no matter how the other game goes, Liverpool can advance and may even be ranked first in the group. Advance.

Last time in Italy, Sun Wu was not caught by the camera, but this time at Anfield, Sun Wu and Jesus were caught by the camera immediately.

Just two minutes into the game, the field was calm, and fierce boos suddenly sounded from the KOP stands, and then swept the entire Anfield.

"Oh, Best is here to watch the game." Mortensen smiled. "Pochettino led the team to face Schalke 04 at Old Trafford and sent his most powerful assistant to spy on the military situation."

Poor Jesus...no one knows him.

In fact, the person in charge of coming to Anfield to watch the game this time was Jesus. Sun Wu only came to see the status of his friends because he was not included in the squad and did not want to sit in a daze on the coaching bench.

Next, Sun Wu saw what he didn't want to see... He was in such good shape!

It only took 20 minutes for Liverpool to end the game. Firmino, Gotze and Coutinho scored three times to end the suspense.

The key is not how many goals are scored, but that Liverpool's high-position press in the frontcourt is very fierce and has a tacit understanding. The offensive efficiency launched after stealing the ball is very high.

In fact, Henderson and Gerrard, the two British midfielders, do not take on organizational tasks. Instead, the four players in front take turns to retreat and organize through the cooperation of three or two players. This tactic obviously makes Malmo defensive. The players are at a loss for what to do.

When he saw Liverpool players tearing apart the opponent's defense through a series of runs, Gerrard, who inserted in the back row, received Firmino's return pass and used a trademark long shot to expand the score to 4-0. Sun Wu couldn't help but grin. Everyone seemed to be in good condition. It seemed that the Double Red Club would not be easy to play.

At this time, boos sounded again, and the big screen in Anfield first showed Gerrard running wildly in celebration, then Klopp applauding, and finally a grinning Sun Wu.

"Best is the one that Red Army fans hate the most today." Mortensen couldn't help but comment: "I really hope he leaves the game early today, otherwise he may be in danger..."

Indeed, in the 80th minute, the score was already 6-0. Sun Wu and Jesus left the field early, and then were surrounded by a group of reporters in the square outside Anfield.

"No, no, no, I'm not here to watch the game." Sun Wu said seriously: "I'm just here to adapt to the stadium in advance. Jesus is here to watch the game... uh, where is the person!?"

Seeing Jesus leave without looking back through the cracks in the crowd, Sun Wu was laughed out of anger, what kind of person is this!

A reporter who didn't seem to be a good person asked: "Best, you started in all the previous 13 rounds of the league. You only didn't start in the previous round, and you lost points..."

"Please, I also started in the first round of the league, but I also lost points. What does this mean?"

"But you didn't play a minute in the last round of the league..."

Sun Wu sighed and looked at the camera seriously, "In the last round of the league, every Manchester United player performed well and completed the tasks assigned by the coaching staff. In the end, we failed to score three points... That was purely due to luck. .”

"Do you think your teammates were in normal condition in the last round of the league?"

"Of course!" Sun Wu replied resolutely, "If the state is not good and fails to meet the requirements of the coaching staff, then Manchester United will not even get a point!"

A sly smile appeared on the reporter's face, "So, Best, do you know? Manchester United trailed Schalke 04 0-2 at Old Trafford... Oh, there are still a few minutes until the end of the game."

Sun Wu twitched the corner of his mouth speechlessly, squeezed out of the crowd and accelerated his pace. This reporter is really nothing!

Well, as soon as Sun Wu got in the car, Jesus told him that although Mane came on as a substitute at the last minute to pull a goal back, Schalke 04 still defeated Manchester United 2-1 and advanced to the knockout round as second in the group. .

Poor Manchester United, they previously had 17 consecutive wins in all competitions, but now they have lost consecutive games in all competitions...
