Chapter 724 Hope

Cardiff City, Wales, Millennium Stadium.

After the game started, Manchester United burst out with huge energy and once formed a siege on Cardiff City. But Cardiff City showed great tenacity.

Neil Warnock is worthy of being a troublemaker in the Premier League. He said that he would lead his team to defeat Manchester United and he was not just talking about it, but actually putting it into action.

Cardiff City, which has been relegated to the English Championship ahead of schedule, should be very open and relaxed. But after the game started, Cardiff City's entire team defended tightly, with a very direct purpose: to prevent Manchester United from scoring.

They really want to stop Manchester United from winning the championship!

Cardiff City's defensive shield withstood Manchester United's heavy blows again and again, and it was not until the 32nd minute of the game that it finally collapsed.

Luke Shaw assisted to the frontcourt and he sent the ball diagonally. Rashford is so fast that he escapes between two defenders.

Under everyone's expectant gaze, the Manchester United youth trainee broke into the penalty area and scored with a low shot.

The Millennium Stadium burst into cheers, and the roar from more than 70,000 Manchester United fans seemed to overthrow the entire stadium.

Mourinho jumped three feet high and waved his arms vigorously to celebrate the goal.

Finally scored!

Well done, Master La!

………………

"Although Cardiff City tried their best to prevent Manchester United from scoring, they still failed. Rashford's goal was really beautiful!"

"Rashford! He scored a goal for Manchester United. This goal is very crucial! Look at Mourinho's excitement on the sidelines, as if he was the one who scored the goal..."

…

Many celebrities, stars, and big shots in the VIP box were also applauding.

The camera gives some important close-ups of the box.

Johnson, who has announced his candidacy for prime minister, and Manchester United owner Prince Jassim high-fived each other.

Beckham applauded with a smile on his face and kissed his wife beside him, once again showing off his affection in front of the whole world.

The king of sprints, Usain Bolt, was so excited that he waved his fists and shouted, hugged his friends and cheered and celebrated like an ordinary fan.

The old prince stood up and clapped vigorously, his face flushed with excitement.

…

The team scored and broke the deadlock.

Mourinho breathed a sigh of relief and happily returned to the coaching bench to sit down.

"Liverpool's side, and Manchester City's side..." Faria came over and said.

Before the assistant finished speaking, Mourinho waved his hand and said: "No need to pay attention to them."

The leader is so confident and arrogant. As long as he wins his own game, others can only stare in disbelief!

………………

Amex Community Stadium, Brighton.

In the 38th minute of the game, Manchester City expanded their lead. Bernardo Silva took a corner kick and Laporte rushed into the net from the edge of the small penalty area.

2:0, Manchester City leads Brighton by two goals.

"Liverpool's side is still 2:0." Arteta said, "Manchester United's side is 1:0."

Guardiola glanced at Arteta silently and said nothing.

After two minutes, Arteta, who really couldn't hold it in any longer, said again: "Josep, I think you should ask me about the situation at Manchester United. Maybe you asked me this time. Cardiff City is entering over there." Where’s the ball?”

As soon as Guardiola finished asking, Manchester United scored. Arteta complained that it was Guardiola who asked, and it was Guardiola's fault that Manchester United scored the goal.

Guardiola groaned angrily and ignored Arteta.

"What's the score at Manchester United?" Guardiola asked helplessly, seeing the aggrieved look on the old man's face, with not a trace of expectation in his heart.

Arteta glanced at Guardiola and said: "You just asked, Manchester United scored again, now 2:0."

Guardiola's face turned red and he stared at Arteta fiercely. If looks could kill, Arteta would have died countless times.

………………

At the Millennium Stadium, Cardiff City midfielder Bacuna fouled Bell, and Manchester United got a very good chance to set the ball in the frontcourt. Bruno's free kick went through a wonderful arc and went straight into the top corner of the goal.

"GOOOOOOOOOOOOOALLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!"

"2:0! Manchester United expanded its lead."

"It was Bruno who scored the goal. This was his 36th league goal this season. He continues to lead the Premier League scorer list and also leads the European Golden Boot rankings with a 2-goal advantage! However, there are still 2 goals left in La Liga. In this round, Bruno's advantage is not too obvious, and Yosi still has the possibility of reversal. "

…

There were cheers in the stands. Originally, Manchester United fans were worried that the team would be in a tough fight due to the heavy pressure. But seeing the team lead 2:0 in the first half made all Manchester United fans feel relieved.

However, Cardiff City got a goal back before the end of the first half. Laon broke into the Manchester United penalty area, Dalot fouled, and the referee awarded a penalty kick. Laon personally deceived De Gea and succeeded in hitting the middle, rewriting the score to 2:1.

Although a goal was conceded before the end of the first half, this did not affect the excitement of Manchester United fans. They have great confidence in the team. In everyone's opinion, Cardiff City's goal is just a desperate struggle.

………………

At the end of the first half, Manchester United temporarily led Cardiff City 2:1.

On the other two fields, the first half of the game has also ended. Liverpool leads Wolves 2:0, and Manchester City leads Brighton 2:0.

According to the current score, Manchester United will lead Liverpool by 1 point and Manchester City by 2 points, and win the championship.

However, Cardiff City scored a goal in the first half, which also gave Liverpool and Manchester City a glimmer of hope.

At the Union Community Stadium, the players temporarily left the field and returned to the players' locker room.

Arteta glanced at Guardiola, who looked at him with disdain and said unhappily: "If you have something to say, just say it."

"Cardiff City scored a goal." Arteta said, then he paused, looked at Guardiola's face, and continued, "Look, you haven't asked, Cardiff City scored."

Guardiola was so angry that he wanted to hit someone.

So he blamed him?

However, the bald Spanish coach made up his mind not to ask about the situation there in the second half of the game.

………………

Guardiola sighed. In the Manchester United match, Cardiff City's goal gave him a glimmer of hope. But in the Liverpool match, Wolves, the biggest dark horse in the Premier League this season, had no power to fight back against the Reds.

Wolves are the dark horse of this season. They are ranked seventh in the standings as a newly promoted team and have a chance to qualify for the Europa League. This team has achieved good results against ordinary upper-middle Premier League teams. Even Chelsea, Arsenal and Tottenham, the three London powers, have not taken advantage of them. The results against Chelsea are 1 win and 1 draw, Arsenal is also 1 win and 1 draw, and against Tottenham is 1 win and 1 loss.

However, in Guardiola's view, the quality of this dark horse is somewhat insufficient, because they face the real strong teams, that is, the three powers in the northwest, and the results are very bad. They lost to Manchester United with a score of 1:3 at home and away. They lost 0:2 in the first round against Liverpool, and now they are 0:2 behind at halftime. They only got 1 draw against Manchester City.

Thinking of this, Guardiola was very depressed.

Perhaps Wolves is the team that really decides the Premier League champion this season, because if Manchester City had not lost 2 points to Wolves, Manchester City should be the top of the standings now!

………………

Liverpool, Anfield Stadium.

Liverpool players learned that Cardiff City had scored a goal and Manchester United's score was rewritten to 1:2, which boosted their morale. They also saw a glimmer of hope, the hope of the team's reversal of Manchester United and winning the first Premier League championship in team history.

Liverpool does not need Cardiff City to beat Manchester United at the Millennium Stadium, they only need them to draw with Manchester United, because then Liverpool will overtake Manchester United by 1 point and win the team's first league championship trophy in the Premier League era.

After the second half of the game started, there was a cheer in the stands of Anfield Stadium.

Liverpool fans are no longer worried about this game, their attention is all on the Millennium Stadium. Now it is still 2:1 there, and Manchester United is leading by one goal.

In the stands of Anfield Stadium, the voices of Liverpool fans cheering for Cardiff City were heard.

………………

Yuntong Community Stadium

Soon after the second half began, Manchester City scored again.

Silva passed the ball, Pogba dribbled past Dunk at the top of the penalty area and shot into the upper right corner with his right foot, changing the score to 0:3. Manchester City, playing away, led by 3 goals and completely locked the victory.

However, Manchester City fans were not happy, because the score at Anfield was still 2:0, and the score between Manchester United and Cardiff City was still 2:1, and both teams were still leading.

Manchester City fans knew that Liverpool's victory was already determined. Regardless of the situation on Manchester United's side, Manchester City had already determined that they could not tie Liverpool in points, and Manchester City was almost certain to miss the league championship.

Guardiola did not speak, his face was full of loneliness, and there was a trace of unwilling stubbornness.

This season is like this, and the lost ground will be recovered next season!

………………

At Anfield, the game between the two teams was not hot or cold, and both teams did not have much motivation to play.

Liverpool only needed to ensure victory in the game, and there was no great demand for goal difference. They just wanted to see Manchester United make a mistake now. Whether they were tied by Cardiff City or lost to Cardiff City, it was the same.

Wolves also had no motivation to play, because they had already secured seventh place and would definitely get a place in the Europa League qualifiers next season. It didn't matter whether they lost to Liverpool or how many goals they lost.

In the 69th minute of the game, huge cheers broke out over Anfield.

"Laon scored twice, Cardiff City 2:2 Manchester United!" The broadcast on the scene at Anfield excitedly announced.

The entire Anfield Stadium fell into a carnival.
