1: 5!

Xia Qi scored the winning goal against Manchester United!

Perhaps, the word "killer" is not appropriate here.

After all, it was only the first half, but almost everyone couldn't help but use this word in their minds.

They all knew that with such a score, Xia Qi would most likely not appear in the second half.

Even if it is just to annoy Mourinho, Guardiola deserves to put Xia Qi on the bench.

Mourinho knew this very well. When the referee blew the whistle to end the first half of the game, he had a gloomy face, lowered his head and walked quickly into the player tunnel.

The Manchester United players also felt ashamed and left in a hurry with their heads down.

Manchester United fans are extremely angry about this!
They waved white handkerchiefs or white tissues in anger. This was the first time in the 100-year history of Old Trafford.

Mrs. Ferguson's TV screen was cracked!
Mrs. Ferguson helped the stubborn old man onto the rocking chair... The old man was so angry that he couldn't breathe, but he still murmured stubbornly: "Manchester United's winter is coming..."

In the second half of the game, Guardiola did not let Xia Qi play. Of course, it was impossible for Xia Qi to really go on a date with Savannah Blade.

He sat quietly on the bench, cheering for his teammates!
In the second half of the game, Manchester United had a slight advantage and they led Manchester City 2:1, but ultimately they still lost the game with a huge score of 3:6.

In a brightly lit press conference room, Manchester City head coach Guardiola sat at one end of a long table and Manchester United head coach Mourinho sat at the other.

Many reporters in the audience were already impatient, with pens and cameras in their hands ready to record this important moment.

A reporter stood up first and asked Guardiola: "Guardiola, Xia Qi's outstanding performance in the first half almost determined the direction of the game. Why didn't you let him play in the second half?"

Guardiola smiled and replied calmly: "Xia Qi's performance in the first half was perfect, which established a huge advantage for the team. But for comprehensive considerations of tactics and players' physical fitness, we need to give other players more training opportunities, and Xia Qi has a yellow card..."

Another reporter immediately asked: "So for this big win, what do you think is the most successful aspect of the team?"

Guardiola sat up straighter and said with a firm look: "This is a team victory. Every player strictly implemented the tactical arrangements and showed tenacious fighting spirit and excellent teamwork. Of course, Xia Qi's performance was undoubtedly extremely dazzling, but the victory belongs to the entire team."

At this time, a reporter turned to Mourinho and asked sharply: "Mourinho, was the result of this game beyond your expectations? Manchester United had a lot of problems in defense in the first half. What do you think about this?"

Mourinho's face was gloomy and he answered in a low voice: "The result of the game is indeed disappointing, but football is full of variables.

We made some mistakes on defense in the first half, which we need to summarize and improve.

But I believe the team will not be discouraged by this, we will learn from it and become stronger. We will win the next Manchester derby."

Another reporter asked: "Does losing this game mean that Manchester United has lost the match point for the entire season? Does it mean that Manchester United has withdrawn from the championship race?"

Mourinho took a deep breath and said: "I did lose the match point, but the league championship is a long marathon. It doesn't depend on how many games you win or who you beat, but on who makes the least mistakes.

Maybe in the future Manchester City will make mistakes one after another. Don’t forget that they have European competitions and we don’t, and there is at least one Manchester derby. Maybe we can get three points in the next Manchester derby..."

The questions continue... Mourinho lost the game but not the battle. He firmly believes that the battle for the Premier League title is still long and Manchester United still has a great chance...

...

...

As soon as the whistle for the end of the game sounded, the entire football world was ignited by this thrilling Manchester derby.

All major media outlets, like sharks smelling blood, reported on the game in all directions and from multiple angles at the fastest speed and with the sharpest brushstrokes.

Sports Weekly wrote in a striking headline on the front page: "Xia Qi dominates the Manchester derby! Manchester City beat Manchester United 6:3!"

The article describes in detail Xia Qi's stunning performance in the first half, from the brilliant dribbles to the earth-shattering shots, every moment was analyzed vividly.

The newspaper's commentator lamented: "This was a personal show of Xia Qi. He destroyed Manchester United's defense with an unstoppable momentum and plunged Old Trafford into an abyss of despair."

"Football Storm" magazine, with the title "Manchester United's defeat and Manchester City's carnival", deeply explored the tactical game behind the game.

The article pointed out that under Guardiola's careful coaching, Manchester City's tactical execution was perfect, while Manchester United had many loopholes on the defensive end, allowing Xia Qi to seize opportunities and score frequently.

The magazine also interviewed several football legends who were shocked by the result of the game and expressed concern about the future of Manchester United.

The online media was not to be outdone. A well-known sports website published a report titled "Xia Qi's battle to become a god! Manchester United is eclipsed."

The report not only includes replays of the game's highlights, but also the heated discussions among fans on social media.

Many Manchester City fans cheered and praised Xia Qi as the hero of the team; while Manchester United fans fell into deep loss and anger and severely criticized the team's performance.

"Daily Sports News" even analyzed the game from a data perspective, using charts and numbers to visually show the comparison between Manchester City and Manchester United in various key data.

The article pointed out that Xia Qi's number of goals almost exceeded the offensive efficiency of the entire Manchester United team. This was a contest of great disparity in strength. Even the Football Review, which has always been known for its rigor, used very infectious language to describe this game: "This is a feast of football, but also a tragedy. Manchester City reached the peak under Xia Qi's leadership, while Manchester United lost its way in this storm."

In short, this Manchester derby became the focus of major media reports. Xia Qi's name spread to every corner of the world overnight, and Manchester United had to face this painful defeat and re-examine its future.

After the Manchester derby, Xia Qi was given the nickname "Mr. Halftime". For a while, he was the talk of the town and became the focus of everyone's attention.

September is the month for the Golden Globe Awards.

As usual, France Football will select five finalists this month, and announce the top three finalists at the end of November or the beginning of December. The final winner will be announced at FIFA's annual awards ceremony around January 3th of next year.

The 2014 Ballon d'Or was described by many media as the most unsurprising one in history.

Although the candidates include Xia Qi, Ronaldo, Messi, Neuer, etc., Xia Qi's performance is really too dazzling.

Although Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi are equally outstanding, the joyous scenes of the nominees in the past are no longer seen. This time, knowing that they are accompanying the prince to study, it is not difficult to imagine how excited Messi and Ronaldo must be.

……

……

On the third day after the Manchester derby, Manchester City traveled to Rome, Italy to challenge the Red Wolves Roma.

In this game, Xia Qi still only played for half the game, but he led the team to a 5:0 victory over the opponent.

After the game, the media wailed: "After Manchester City has secured the Premier League title, will it also take the Champions League title? If so, what fun is there in competitive sports?"

Back in the Premier League, Manchester City won two consecutive games, and then went north to Moscow to compete with the Russian Premier League powerhouse CSKA Moscow.

It was already mid-November and the city of Moscow was already covered in snow and ice.

The bad weather helped the CSKA team to win the game. Although they lost to Manchester City 0:3, Xia Qi's title of "Mr. Halftime" came to an end.

Xia Qi played the full game and scored two goals.

After the game, almost all media praised Moscow's tenacity.

However, the honest Russian, the head coach of the CSKA team, said with a wry smile after the game: "Since when did we stop being proud of defeating our opponents and instead regard forcing them to play the entire game as our goal of victory?"

In the press conference hall after the game, the whole place fell silent as soon as these words were spoken!

Although the Russians don't think they won, all of Europe thinks they won!

The big devil Xia Qi finally began to show signs of fatigue.

He scored 34 goals in 3.09 Premier League games, averaging 9 goals per game, and 2.25 goals in four Champions League games, averaging goals per game.

During the same period, Messi averaged only 0.88 goals per game and Ronaldo 1.08 goals per game.

This seems to be a situation where the old king has not yet left and the new king has already been established.

Moreover, Xia Qi left Mei and Luo far behind.

As we all know, before Xia Qi appeared, Mei and Ronaldo were in the same tier, and other players were in another tier. The gap between the two tiers was like a chasm.

After Xia Qi appeared, Xia Qi occupied a tier alone, Mei and Luo were put in one tier, and finally everyone else.

Such a result makes many football people feel desperate!
No football person would like such a huge gap except Xia Qi and Manchester City.

So, the fact that CSKA Moscow was able to force Xia Qi to play the whole game really, really made them excited to tears.

After ending this less than perfect journey in Moscow, Manchester City ushered in another battle between red and blue.

On November 11, we will face the Red Army Liverpool.

The Reds led by Klopp are also extremely strong this season.

The forward line includes Egyptian Messi Salah, Smoky Tai Sui Mane, Balotelli, and the midfield includes Kante, Coutinho and so on.

They have not lost a game so far this season, having only drawn two games, and are four points behind Manchester United, who have won 11 games in a row.

Many British media outlets cheered them on.

Kante, who just joined Liverpool, naively said that he could defend Xia Qi alone.

Balotelli told the media: "This time I clocked out at halftime..."

Gerrard shouted: "This is Anfield!" (End of this chapter)
