Entering April, Manchester United's horror game first challenged West Ham United in an away game in London.

英超赛场中，曼联不容有失，曼联近5次做客博林球场3度落败，本赛季联赛杯更是惨遭0比4屠戮，但曼联近6场联赛交锋全胜西汉姆，打入17球仅丢1球。双方在英超联赛中交战31场，西汉姆4胜7平20负落于下风，红魔客场取得6胜7平2负。双方历史交锋121场，曼联55胜24平42负占据上风。

Edwin van der Sar was sidelined with a groin injury, Nemanja Vidic and Park Ji-sung both returned from injury, Kuczacker, Fabio and Gibson started in rotation.

In the 31st round, a focus battle was fought at the Boleyn Stadium. Manchester United reversed and won 4-2 away from West Ham. Carlton Cole earned two penalties and Noble hit consecutively.Rooney then scored a hat-trick, and Li Yu, who came off the bench, was the icing on the cake.

Every time Li Yu gets a rest from the national team game, he can always surprise Manchester United. In the game after the past six international competitions, he has scored a total of five goals.And this time, Manchester United's No. 9 continued this fine tradition. His goal in the 84th minute helped the Red Devils beat the "Axe Gang" West Ham United 4-2.

When the game progressed to the 84th minute of the second half, Manchester United launched a quick counterattack. After receiving the ball in front of the penalty area, Li Yu protected the ball from the pressure of the two men and passed it to Giggs on the left. Sweeping into the penalty area, West Ham's central defender Upsang made a mistake in the middle. Li Yu showed the smell of a top shooter. His outflanking shot from the back point helped Manchester United seal the victory 4-2.

这是李玉最近10场各项赛事打入的第8球，本赛季联赛26场比赛的第31球，加上欧冠的比赛就是31场38球。

It is precisely with such an efficient killer that Manchester United can still dominate the Premier League even when Rooney has not felt good about scoring goals in the recent period.

Correspondingly, Chelsea's luxury striker combination has fallen into a continuous offensive shortage. The four forwards Drogba, Anelka, Torres and Kalou are worth nearly 2 million pounds. They have not scored for [-] months (drogba just broke the scoring drought and scored a goal in this round).

A day ago, Ancelotti just said: "Rooney is an excellent player, I like him, but I have four excellent forwards, I will not use them to replace anyone..." But look at the scoring efficiency The Red Devils are just a small pea bought for 700 million pounds last summer, which is enough to make Abramovich's striker combination worth nearly [-] million pounds feel ashamed.

Manchester United's match against West Ham United this round was quite difficult, falling behind the Axes 0-2 in the first half.

During the halftime break, Ferguson replaced Evra with Li Yusi and started a double-forward tactic. Manchester United used Manchester United No. 9 to top the front, hoping to use his speed to suppress the opponent's defense.

Ferguson said that the appearance of Manchester United's No. 9 changed the situation of the game. Li Yu activated the team's offense. "When Hernandez came on the field in the second half, he brought us speed and allowed him to attack them. The defensive line, which forced the opponent's defense to retreat, and we got more space to cooperate."

In 45 minutes of playing time, Li Yu succeeded in 26 of 22 passes, with a success rate of 84.6%, and 19 passes in the frontcourt.After the game, "Sky Sports" also praised Li Yu for "bringing a huge threat after his appearance in the second half and scoring a goal", and gave him a high score of 7 points.

Li Yu's increasingly crazy performance has also made him the focus of other clubs. On the one hand, the team that played against Manchester United wants to further restrain Li Yu's performance. On the other hand, giants like Real Madrid have never given up on Li Yu. Jade Chase.

The British "Guardian" also wrote a special article "Is Li Yu the most valuable player in Manchester United?", thinking that Li Yu has indeed had enough market value in the world.

In the previous six games, Li Yu's court strength has also been further confirmed. In any case, if Manchester United wants to win more championships, Li Yu must be healthy.

After this round, Manchester United topped the list with 66 points, and the difference between Arsenal with one less game was widened to 7 points. Chelsea, which finally defeated Manchester United in the league battle last season, was defeated by Stoke City in this round. After the draw, although there was one round less, they have been left behind by 11 points, and the expectation of defending the Premier League champions is already very slim.

The reason why the Red Devils failed to expand their lead this season is the lack of away record. They scored 15 wins and 14 tie in 1 home games, scoring 43 points, 2 points more than No.11 Chelsea.But in the away game rankings, Manchester United did not enter the top three. In 16 league away games with 5 wins, 8 draws and 3 losses, they only scored 23 points, 1 points less than No.3 Arsenal.Therefore, in such a tense period of the season, it is conceivable that Manchester United can win an away game and get 0 points in a reversal after falling behind 2-3.

Wayne Rooney knew how difficult this away game at West Ham was before the game: "I have walked into the dressing room of the away team countless times as an away player. The treatment received by the away team is always uncomfortable. Take anything away from someone else's pitch." Manchester United want to win the title, West Ham want to avoid relegation, both teams must get 3 points in this game.Football is like this, the first to laugh may not be the last to laugh, West Ham lost in the late quarter, allowing Manchester United to score 4 goals in a row, seeing the life-saving 3 points being taken away abruptly.

Ferguson's gamble paid off. He removed Evra, who performed abnormally in the first half, and let Giggs play as a left back. Then he played Li Yu and played a 4-forward formation. The final result It also proved that Ferguson faced the reality that the midfielder was not strong, and put Berba on the front line, but he was able to organize the offense to the forefront.After the game, Rooney felt that Li Yu's playing took all the pressure off him: "No matter how much defensive pressure Li Yu faces, he can hold the ball and always do something unexpected. "

This away win is Manchester United's most difficult reversal win in the league this season.

In the 9th round away game against Stoke City this season, Tunchai equalized for the home team in the 81st minute, and Li Yu sent a thrilling lore in the 86th minute. The Red Devils tasted the thrill of scoring 3 points in a dangerous situation for the first time ; On November 11, Manchester United defeated Wolves 6-2 at home. Li Yu's super lore in the 1th minute made Manchester United complete nirvana. The 90-3 reversal of Blackpool’s game is simply a replica of this game. The home team led by two goals in the first half. Li Yu’s goal in the 1nd minute sounded the rallying call for Manchester United. The Red Devils finally scored in 26 minutes. 3 goals came back successfully.

Due to the bad relationship between Ferguson and the Premier League referee, many Manchester United fans will be involved with the referee for the two missed penalties.But if you look closely, Evra's first handball was unintentional, but his arms have been fully extended, 100% blocking the ball's forward route, and there is no doubt that he was sentenced to "capital punishment".

The point of controversy was the second penalty kick. Cole used continuous fake moves to shake Vidic's center of gravity. He was brought down by the former the moment he broke into the penalty area from the left, and the referee pointed to the penalty point again.From the analysis of the camera playback, it is also difficult to clearly judge whether the place of the foul was outside the penalty area or in the penalty area. In this case, the referee made a penalty in favor of the home team, which should be respected.

And judging from the 40th minute, when Vidic was the last defender to hold Den Baba down from behind but only received a yellow card, the referee's enforcement today did not favor the home team. You know, Upson was sentenced The handball action of the penalty kick is much more restrained than that of Evra.Offending the referee has no good life?Judging from today's game, Manchester United, which has the advantage of the game, finally won the game, and the enforcement of the Premier League referees is still trustworthy.

Demonicity will never retreat, and history often has striking similarities under the illumination of demonicity.

In the 2006th round of the 07-36 season, Chelsea was tied 2-2 by Bolton at home, while Manchester United also fell behind by two goals in the first half, but they fought back in the 60th minute of the second half and scored 30 goals in 4 minutes. An away game reversal victory was achieved, and the point difference with Chelsea was also widened to 5 points. In the end, Manchester United led Chelsea by 6 points to win the championship, which made the once proud Mourinho bow down.

Last season, Manchester United and Chelsea fought fiercely, but the 33-1 loss at home to Chelsea in the 2rd round became a turning point in the championship situation. Manchester United did not complete the trophy until the end.It's a pity that Chelsea's stamina is insufficient this season. After this round, they have lost 11 points in one less game. Manchester United's champion wrestling opponent has also been replaced by Arsene Wenger's Arsenal.

Judging from the 32nd to 38th rounds of the Manchester United and Arsenal league matches, Manchester United's next 7 games are home games against Fulham, Everton, Chelsea and Blackburn, and away games against Newcastle, Arsenal and Blackburn. ; And Arsenal will take over the home game against Liverpool, Manchester United, Aston Villa, and the away game against Blackpool, Bolton, Stoke City and Fulham.

Judging from the list of matches alone, there is not much difference in difficulty between the two teams, but the factor of Manchester United's improved away game ability cannot be underestimated.After winning this away game, Manchester United has won two of the last four away games, and averaged 4 goals in each of the two away wins, showing a strong away rebound momentum.

And Arsenal is currently in a low point of team morale.In Wenger's words after the game, it was "most of the players in the team lack motivation and the arrogance of a champion who is better than me".Therefore, the pressure resistance and mentality of the players of the two teams at the last moment will be a major decisive factor in the championship. The 35th round of Manchester United's away game against Arsenal is likely to be the decisive battle for the league championship this season.

After the game, Ferguson said that "there is a possibility of winning the championship with Arsenal based on goal difference", but the premise of this sentence is that Arsenal won Blackburn today, but Wenger's team lost the chain at a critical moment. It is becoming more and more difficult for Wenger to surpass Manchester United. If Arsenal's youth army continues to sluggish performance, their second position is likely to be surpassed by Chelsea.

Winning in the league, the next Manchester United game is still in London, but their opponent is replaced by their old enemy Chelsea, and the game has become a first-leg knockout round of the Champions League.

In the middle of this week, Manchester United visited Stamford Bridge to start the Premier League civil war in the Champions League.The mentality of the two teams is very different at the weekend. Manchester United's big score reversal against West Ham in adversity is just a time of prosperity; while Chelsea was forced by Stoke City and failed to shake off the fifth-ranked Tottenham. Next season's Champions League qualification is still in suspense .However, in the match against West Ham, Manchester United's defense still exposed weaknesses, which is why Ferguson hinted at the need to buy a defender in the summer before the end of the season.Nemanja Vidic's return before the key game is a big plus. Unfortunately, Manchester United's defense is still short of major generals. The way of sending two penalties can be used as a breakthrough for Ancelotti to figure out the loopholes of the Red Devils.

Ferdinand has been injured for a long time, and the defense has only two experienced players, Vidic and Evra.But it was these two who sent the penalty kick in this game.Evra sent the first [-] yards out of the handball. The whole first half was like sleepwalking. Ferguson replaced him after half-time. He would rather use Giggs to play left back than the Frenchman.Vidic was originally supposed to play the role of the leader of the defense, but when defending Carlton Cole, he exposed the problem of slow turning and was thrown by the opponent to send the second penalty.

Although Torres still hasn't recovered his form, his speed has always been Vidic's nightmare.The No. 9 substitute of the Blues in the weekend league will stay on the bench and is expected to appear in the first round of the Champions League on Tuesday night.However, Torres has not yet integrated into Chelsea's offensive system, which is something that Manchester United's defense should be grateful for.

What makes Ferguson even more gratifying is the news that Ferdinand may return early.The Manchester United centre-back has been out of action since suffering a calf injury against Wolves in February, and Ferdinand has resumed training this week without the injury.Ferguson will make a final decision on Monday whether to take the Englishman to Stamford Bridge.Rafael, O'Shea, Brown and Fletcher were all unable to travel with the team, and the Red Devils' defense really couldn't bear more injuries.

Relying on Li Yu's calm shooting in the first half, Manchester United ended the embarrassment of the 9-year away game against Chelsea.Even though "Red Flower" Li Yu has been extremely brave recently, he can easily stage a lore, thanks to "Green Leaf" Giggs who fed the ball comfortably.

This is the second game that Giggs has started in the last 4 days, but Giggs' physical strength has not been affected at all. He played as a central midfielder in this game, and his performance was remarkable.

In the 16th minute, Giggs took a corner kick, Drogba headed the ball to clear the siege, Park Ji-sung shot angrily at the ball, and the ball hit Drogba and bounced off the baseline; in the 24th minute, Carrick made a diagonal pass to the left, and Giggs While stopping the ball, he took advantage of the situation to get rid of Bosingwa, cut into the left side of the penalty area and returned a precise pass. What Li Yu, who was unguarded, pushed the ball into most of the empty goal. When Li Yu celebrated with emotion, Giggs' expression was It was very calm, even though it was his second assist in 4 days.

In the 40th minute, Ivanovic made a breakthrough, and Giggs intercepted the Serbian's shoes immediately; in the 68th minute, Giggs tricked Lampard with a fake move, but was caught by Ramireska Stand behind you...

据opta统计，全场比赛，吉格斯55次传球42次到位；前场成功传球28次，居曼联队内第1，全场第3；奉献1次助攻、1次有威胁传球、3次传中、1次成功铲断、1次解围，赢得2个任意球。

Two consecutive away games, two consecutive victories, two consecutive 90-minute fights, the 37-year-old Prince of Wales still has enough passion to gallop on the court.

In this campaign, Giggs ran as much as 11000 meters, second only to Li Yu who ran 12320 meters in the team, and even better than the undead Evra (10200 meters) and Rooney (10950 meters) who ran all over the field. ) has run a lot, dragging his 37-year-old body, and still working so hard, it is very touching.After this campaign, Giggs became the oldest player in the history of Manchester United to play in the Champions League except for the goalkeeper. He was 37 years and 128 days old. The previous record belonged to French defender Blanco.

4 days ago, in the away game against West Ham, Giggs played as a left-back in consideration of the overall situation. In that game, the Prince of Wales sent the most 6 threatening balls in the game; 1 successful tackle and 2 successful clearances.

Not only that, but also actively participated in the offense at the last moment of the game, assisting Li Yu to seal the victory.

After the game, Giggs said, "We didn't give up. No matter what kind of game happened in the game, we will continue to play." He didn't play his best position (left midfielder) for two consecutive games, but he contributed two times. Assists, for Giggs, is not a particularly unexpected thing.You know, the 37-year-old Giggs still holds the record for the most assists in the Premier League (since 2002, when the statistics of assists were available).

Among the four veterans of Manchester United this season, Gary Neville has announced his retirement in the middle of the season; Van der Sar also announced in the middle of the season that he will retire this summer; Scholes has not yet decided whether to play for another year; Ryan Giggs, who practices yoga diligently and has a high degree of self-discipline, has already renewed his contract with Manchester United for one year.

Ferguson even thinks that Giggs can play for another two years, because Ferguson feels that his physical function will not be a problem for another two years.Even the opponents admire Giggs very much. Chelsea deputy Lampard regards Giggs as a benchmark figure, "I look forward to playing for the next ten years. I hope I can still be like him when I am in my 30s." Giggs, Scholes and Maldini continue to play for the team and I would love to do that."
