Many well-known sports media and football media expressed their shock at the result of the game on social networks at the first time.

"Sports Weekly": "Xia Yuan led Aston Villa to defeat the Premier League overlord Manchester City. They are the only team that has defeated Manchester City in the past three months.

"Today's Headlines": "Shocked! A club from the Championship League actually eliminated the Premier League leader in the FA Cup! Manchester City lost the game against Aston Villa! They lost the chance to reach the final!"

On social media.

Xia Yuan's name once again became the first hot search!

At the same time, the term Manchester City's upset became the second hot search.

For a while, the entire social platform of Xiaguo was talking about Xia Yuan's performance crazily!

Shortly after the game, Xia Yuan's Douyin account was updated.

Xia Yuan did not post his game video, but only posted a photo, which was a group photo of all Aston Villa players in the locker room.

Then, Xia Yuan wrote: "We won a great victory! Aston Villa successfully made it to the final! Come on!"

In less than ten minutes.

Xia Yuan received hundreds of thousands of likes! In addition, there were a lot of comments from Xiaguo fans!

"Wow! My idol actually posted on TikTok! Congratulations! I hope Aston Villa can win the FA Cup!"

"Xia Yuan!! Your performance tonight is really like an alien!"

"It's a pleasure to watch you play!"

"I hope to see you in the Europa League next season! Come on Villa! Come on Xia Yuan!!"

"I will always support you!!"

"As a Villa fan for 20 years, thank you for leading Aston Villa to the FA Cup final!"

"Come on! Strive to win the double championship after the season ends!"

...

In Oslo, Norway

In Lao Xia Restaurant, Xia Dongguo and Huang Caiyun have been waiting in front of the TV. When the referee Anthony Taylor on the TV screen blew the whistle to end the game, the old couple hugged each other excitedly.

"Good job, Xiao Yuan! Manchester City is the strongest team in the English league! It's really not easy to beat them!"

"Caiyun, I dare say that as long as Xiao Yuan's team beats Manchester City, they will most likely win the final FA Cup! Hehe! As long as they win the FA Cup, Aston Villa will be able to participate in the Europa League next season!"

Compared to playing in the Europa League, Huang Caiyun is more concerned about Xia Yuan's health. She said worriedly: "Why play so many games? It increases the risk of injury! Just play one game with peace of mind! Running around is so tiring!"

Xia Dongguo: "Women's opinion!"

"Playing in the Europa League can give our Xiao Yuan more exposure. Maybe in the future, a big club will sign with Xiao Yuan!"

...

In fact, after Aston Villa's game with Manchester City, many teams have begun to pay attention to Xia Yuan's existence.

For example.

Tonight's opponent Manchester City.

Guardiola immediately recommended Xia Yuan and Grealish to the club's sports director, hoping that the team's sports director could bring the Villa twins to the Blue Moon in the future transfer window.

In addition.

Manchester United, the same city team, also expressed great interest in Xia Yuan.

Since Ferguson retired

, Manchester United, which has always been in a dominant position in the Premier League, has seen its performance plummet.

Even, it often loses to Manchester City in the Manchester derby.

So much so that the sky in Manchester is always blue.

In order to recreate the Red Devils' position in the Premier League, Manchester United has frequently replaced coaches in the past few seasons, and also hopes to introduce more capable players to join the team.

When other strong teams want to introduce a superstar, Manchester United will always intervene and make an offer.

This is also called Manchester United by many fans! Raising the price!

So, when the people of Manchester United saw that Xia Yuan, who was only 17 years old, played well against Manchester City, they immediately expressed a strong interest in Xia Yuan.

In addition to the two Manchester City giants, Liverpool, another traditional strong team in the Premier League, also listed Xia Yuan as a potential signing target.

In fact, Liverpool's scouts have been paying attention to Xia Yuan for a long time.

Judging from Xia Yuan's current technical style, his technical and tactical style is very consistent with Klopp's.

The Germans also hope to recruit Xia Yuan into the team as an investment for the future.

Of course.

Compared with the wealthy Manchester City duo, Liverpool Club is quite average in terms of financial resources.

No offer was made to Aston Villa Club.

After this game, the Manchester City duo immediately made the first round of offers. The transfer fees offered by both teams were around 10 million euros, but unfortunately, all were rejected by Aston Villa!

Villa made it clear that Xia Yuan was not for sale.

In the locker room.

Xia Yuan was not clear about these things. Fortunately, his agent Mr. Jonathan informed Xia Yuan of the news as soon as possible.

A phone rang.

Xia Yuan looked at his phone. It was Jonathan.

"Xia! Let me tell you something. Manchester City and Manchester United have made the first round of offers to the team. This is a tentative offer, so the transfer fee offered by these two teams is not too high, only 10 million euros, which was clearly rejected by Aston Villa!"

"The club said that you are not for sale."

After hearing this news, Xia Yuan's face showed a little surprise, but soon regained his composure.

"Really? I didn't expect the two Manchester City giants to act so quickly."
