Football nukes: a pound buys a club

Chapter 158 Red and Blue Derby

Bury's lead was cut to five points following a [-]-[-] draw with Arsenal.

This made Bury's fans a little worried. After all, Bury is a young team, and there are giants like Manchester United chasing after them. It is possible to collapse under the pressure.

Moreover, the two games against Manchester United have not been played this season, in case both games...

Not only the fans, but on the second day after the game, Gary Neville also wrote in his column: "Bury's youth army seems to have encountered some problems recently. In the last four league games, they only scored one goal. Compared with the previous state, the results of wins, two draws and one loss have declined significantly. Although Arsenal and Liverpool were tied, and Manchester City was lost, if you are a team that aims to compete for the championship, you must win against a strong team. You can't lose so many points. I thought that this season's Premier League would create a Kaiserslautern myth, but now it seems that Bury still has a long way to go."

At this time, Zhang Chong was really depressed.

However, he was not because of Bury's recent performance, but because of the national football team's away game against Iran.

In this game, although Wang Chu and Zhang Yuning performed very well, they scored two goals together, but the weakness of the defense allowed Iran to score three goals.

In the end, the national football team lost [-]-[-] to their opponents in the away game, and the points gap with South Korea widened to [-] points. With three rounds left in the qualifiers, there is basically no possibility of competing for the top two to advance directly.

But in all fairness, there is nothing to blame for Gao Hongbo's formation in this game. Although we conceded three goals, our national team's defense is at the same level. The three goals are all due to personal ability. Yes, both of them couldn't stop the defense, which made him very helpless.

Therefore, after this game, there was no voice to dismiss him from get out of class.

However, Gao Hongbo also knows that if he fails to achieve the desired results in the next three games, his dismissal is a certainty.

That night, Zhang Chong returned to the bar with a depressed face.

Old Tommy and Old Taylor, who were drinking, saw him and hurried forward to comfort him: "Chong, don't put too much pressure on us. We all think that your performance is very good, and it has greatly exceeded our expectations."

Zhang Chong was taken aback: "I'm not under any pressure?"

The duo of old drunkards were stunned: "Then why do you look not in a good mood?"

Zhang Chong smiled: "It's because of our national team's world preliminaries. Our club is on track. Don't worry."

When the duo of old drunkards heard this, they suddenly looked a little weird.

They had also heard of the prestige of the national football team, and they didn't know how to comfort him for a while.

Although the British national team often pulls their hips, they have had highlights after all, and there is almost no need to worry about not being able to enter the World Cup.

But the national football team can maintain a completely opposite trend with the overall strength of the country, which is also unique in the world.

Zhang Chong waved his hand: "You guys are drinking, I'm going upstairs."

The duo of old drunkards looked at his back, feeling sympathetic for a moment.

On April 4, Bury went away to challenge Norwich.

Cheng Sichu has also returned to the team, but he will not be placed in the starting lineup after a long journey.

But even so, Bury's overall strength is far better than Norwich, so the victory in this game is not surprising at all.

Antoine Hill and Keane Jr. each scored a goal, [-]-[-], and Bury won the game without bloodshed.

After the game was won, the players did not rest immediately, because two hours after their game ended, there was another focus battle in the Premier League.

Manchester derby!

This game is not only one of the most famous derbies in the Premier League, but also a contest between Mourinho and Guardiola, the old rivals who love and kill each other. The third confrontation.

Therefore, everyone is very concerned about this game.

The first leg of the contest between the two sides this season was held at Old Trafford, when Manchester United defeated their opponents [-]-[-].

Now the point difference between the two teams is six points. If Manchester City can win the opponent at home in this game, it will pose a threat to Manchester United's No.2.

But if Manchester United wins, then he will basically secure his top two position.

Therefore, in these two games, both sides did their best to show their attitude that they must win.

As soon as the game started, Manchester City began to put pressure on Manchester United with the advantage of the home court.

But Manchester United's tactics are very clear, that is, to defend and counterattack!

Sure enough, in the No. 207 minute, Manchester United passed a quick counterattack, and Rashford knocked on the opponent's door!

I have to say that Rashford is indeed a sharp counterattack.

Since Van Gaal promoted him to the first team, this young man has conquered the fans with his outstanding performance, and some people even call him the new British star.

The Bury boys sighed.

They definitely hope that Manchester City can win, so that they can widen the points gap.

However, Mourinho's defensive line is very solid, and Manchester City can't find a good opportunity for a while.

At the end of the first half, although Manchester City's possession rate was significantly ahead, the score was zero to one.

Typical Mourinho game.

But the turning point of the game came 6 minutes into the second half.

Rojo suddenly fell down clutching his leg during a scramble, and the team doctor made a substitution gesture after entering the field!

In front of the TV, Zhang Chong sighed in his heart. This Argentine player is really ill-fated. This season, he has secured his main position under Mourinho, but successive injuries eventually ruined his career.

In Zhang Chong's memory, Rojo suffered a major injury around April 2017, and has since lost his position in Manchester United.

Let's hope he's okay this time!

However, Smalling, who came on, was obviously not ready for the game. After 1 minute, his omission allowed Manchester City to equalize the score!

Mourinho on the sidelines was so angry that he threw the water bottle in his hand.

Manchester City, who equalized the score, boosted their morale and continued to put pressure on Manchester United's goal.

No. In 80 minutes, Aguero dunked Smalling in the penalty area and shot hard to help Manchester City overtake their opponents [-]-[-]!

Mourinho on the sidelines looked livid, the main central defender was injured, and the substitute central defender was in extremely poor condition. This game was a nightmare for him.

In the next ten minutes, Manchester United, unwilling to be defeated, launched offensives again and again, but none of them could change the score.

In the end, Manchester City defeated Manchester United [-]-[-] at home!

The moment the final whistle blew, Bury's players cheered.

They also re-extended their lead to eight points!
