Chapter 591 Poisonous Milk
Manchester United's six-game winning streak started, not only creating the team's best start in the Premier League, but also tying the best start in Premier League history.In the 11-1994 season 1995 years ago, Newcastle United was like a downhill tiger. They fought consecutively in the early stages of the league and created the best start to the Premier League with 6 consecutive victories at the beginning of the season.This record has not been broken until this season was tied.

In addition to creating the team's best start in the Premier League, the excellent competitive state displayed by Manchester United's players has also won praise from the media.

After 6 league rounds, Manchester United's two major strikers, Yin Jun and Ruud van Nistelrooy, both scored 5 goals and tied for the top scorer list in the Premier League.

It is worth mentioning that the two scored goals in the first 5 rounds of the league, and did not stop scoring until the sixth round.

However, the efficiency of the two scoring goals is not the highest in Manchester United. The fat guy Rooney, who has encountered a lot of criticism recently, is the most efficient one.The English striker scored 6 goals and 4 assists in the first 3 rounds of the league, ranking first in Manchester United's efficiency list.

The three top scorers occupy the top three in the Premier League scorer list, and together they have scored more goals than any of the other 19 teams.

至于已经取得进球和助攻的曼联球员，还有C罗（1球）、费迪南德（1球）、吉格斯（2助攻）、奥谢（2助攻）、弗莱彻（2助攻）等人，甚至连曼联门将范德萨都送出了1次助攻！
"The Sun" used the entire page to report on the outstanding performance of Manchester United's players, "Crazy Manchester United, shockingly good team", this is the headline of this page.

Manchester United's mouthpiece media "Guardian" is full of praise for Ferguson and the players.

The famous Ferguson "licking the dog", the "Sunday Mirror" reporter Simon Mullock's column report won the favor of Manchester United fans. This issue of "Sunday Mirror" was sold out in Manchester United.

The story was headlined: "Who Can Stop Him?"

This "he" is using the Manchester United team crest.

In addition, the report also used two pictures on the front page, one of which is the Premier League standings:

6. Manchester United, 18 wins, [-] points;
6. Chelsea, 18 wins, [-] points;
4. Charlton, 1 wins and 12 loss, with [-] points;
3, Bolton, 2 wins, 1 draws and 11 loss, with [-] points.

Another picture is the next 6 rounds of the Premier League table:
On September 9, in the seventh round of the league, Manchester United played against Blackburn at home;

On October 10, in the 1th round of the league, Manchester United challenged Fulham as a guest at Berklaven Farm;
On October 10th, in the 15th round of the league, Manchester United challenged the black cats Sunderland at the Stadium of Light;
On October 10, in the 22th round of the league, Manchester United played against Tottenham at home;

On October 10, in the 29th round of the league, Manchester United challenged Middlesbrough at the Riverside Stadium;
On November 11, in the twelfth round of the league, Manchester United sat at Old Trafford to face their most powerful opponent, Chelsea.

Listing the game two months later, it is obvious that the previous teams are unlikely to stop Manchester United's progress.

………………

Although the media began to hype the game between Manchester United and Chelsea at home, Ferguson banned the players from talking about the game in the team. He also refused to accept media interviews about Manchester United and Chelsea.

A week later, in the seventh round of the 2005-2006 Premier League season, Manchester United played against Blackburn at home.

In this game, Ferguson carried out a substantial rotation for the team. Except for goalkeeper Van der Sar, two central defenders Ferdinand and Vidic, and Ronaldo and Ruud van Nistelrooy in the midfield, the other six positions were played. up the rotation.

Ferguson's meaning is very clear, the team concentrates all its strength to prepare for the Champions League group match against Benfica in the middle of next week.Obviously, in Ferguson's view, compared with the Champions League, the league with a longer season is a game that can be temporarily put aside.

But Ferguson underestimated the team of former pupil Mark Hughes, and Manchester United encountered great difficulties at home.Although Manchester United launched a fierce attack on Blackburn's goal after the start of the game, it was Blackburn who scored the first goal.

In the 33rd minute, the visiting team took the lead. Pedersen made a free kick from the right and passed it directly with his left foot. Neither player touched the ball.

At the end of halftime, the score on the field was 0:1. According to international practice, the home team is in front.

Before the start of the second half, Ferguson did not make personnel adjustments, but the performance of the Red Devils in the second half did not show much improvement. Sir Alex Ferguson's tactical adjustments in the midfield did not have immediate results.

The Manchester United fans in the stands began to call Yin Jun's name.

………………

Ferguson saw that the situation was wrong, and in the 57th minute of the game, the two in a row replaced Fletcher with Yin Jun and Alan Smith with Rooney.Manchester United has changed from the previous 433 formation to the traditional 442. Rooney and Ruud van Nistelrooy partnered up front, Ronaldo and Park Ji-sung retreated, paralleling Yin Jun and Scholes in the middle.

The effect of this adjustment was quickly seen.Rooney scored a goal in just 3 minutes, but was blown off by the referee for offside.

But after 6 minutes, Manchester United scored again and equalized the score.Yin Jun's pass passed through Blackburn's defense. Rooney's strong shot after being offside was saved by Blackburn's American goalkeeper Friedel. The Dutch scored their sixth league goal of the season.

The morale of Manchester United, who equalized the score, soared and threatened Blackburn's goal continuously.

In the 79th minute of the game, Manchester United staged an offensive quartet in the frontcourt. Yin Jun, Rooney, Scholes and Ruud van Nistelrooy cooperated continuously in the frontcourt.

Just when Manchester United's offensive became stronger and stronger and it seemed that they could score at any time, Blackburn was lucky enough to score again.In the 81st minute, Scholes made a rash pass error in front of the penalty area. After stealing the ball from the frontcourt, Gray made a direct pass to the left side of the penalty area. Pederson scored twice with a left-footed shot from 12 yards.

Manchester United, who fell behind for the second time, was naturally unwilling to suffer a defeat at home and besieged Blackburn's goal frantically in the last ten minutes.But Rooney, Ruud van Nistelrooy and others missed scoring opportunities one after another.

Seeing that the game was about to enter injury time, Manchester United finally equalized the score again.In the 90th minute, Giggs made a pass from the left side of the penalty area, and Yin Jun shook his head from 8 yards in front of the middle of the goal and headed the ball into the dead corner.

2: 2!

Manchester United slammed the visiting team's goal at the last moment, but unfortunately there was too little time, and they were unable to score the third goal of the game after all.

In the end, Manchester United was tied by Blackburn at home, and in the standings, they were overtaken by Chelsea, who had won 7 consecutive victories in the opening season of the Premier League.
