Football's No. 1 Prodigal Son
Chapter 154
The next day, AC Milan also defeated PSV Eindhoven in the semi-finals and advanced to the final.
In this way, Manchester City will meet the Rossoneri in the final, and the location is exactly in the fateful Istanbul.
After a day of rest, Manchester City hurried to Birmingham to prepare for the away challenge to Aston Villa.
Now they are a completely exhausted team, and there are big problems in the central defender position.
Distin's physical strength has reached the bottom after continuous battles, and he is no longer suitable for this game.
And Stam is confirmed to be injured for three weeks, and it is still unknown whether he can catch up with the Champions League final.
In addition to Uifalusi, who has already been ruled out for the season, Manchester City can only send two young players, Kompany and Lescott, as the starting central defenders in this game!
The problem in the front court is not small either. Ronaldinho's physical condition is also average. If he insists on playing, the effect may not be very good.
But when it rains, Niklas Jensen is unfortunately injured during their pre-match training and will definitely not be able to play in this game.
This made Yang Luo scratch his head.
There was no way, he could only let Evra, who had consumed a lot of energy in the last game, continue to play.
In this game, Aston Villa, who played at home, really caused a lot of trouble for Manchester City!
Less than ten minutes after the start, they had the first goal from striker Angel!
Lescott unfortunately gave the ball to the opponent's midfielder Hitzlsperger when he headed the ball, but the German midfielder did not take credit and directly put the ball into the penalty area. Angel took the lead with a fierce shot.
After losing the ball, Manchester City launched a tidal wave of attacks, but Fabregas, who played in the front midfielder position in this game, performed mediocrely, which caused some problems in Manchester City's last pass.
The starting left and right wingers Cristiano Ronaldo and Robben were obviously not in good shape, which also greatly affected Manchester City's attack.
Yang Luo had no choice but to replace Robben with Messi during the halftime break, hoping that he could provide some vitality for the game.
Messi did perform very well after he came on the court. He created many threats on the right, forcing the opponent to frequently stop him with fouls.
He also assisted Torres to score the equalizer in the 63rd minute of the game.
But in the following time, although Manchester City made a lot of efforts, they still failed to break the opponent's door!
In the end, Manchester City tied with Aston Villa 1:1 away!
This cast a shadow on Manchester City's Premier League title prospects.
Yang Luo's hope is on the other side of Chelsea's game.
Chelsea's home game against Charlton started 45 minutes later, and they had just entered the second half.
But the score was still 0-0!
Chelsea was obviously also affected by the Champions League, and their state was also very poor, and it was difficult to form any threatening offense.
The whole Manchester City team hoped that he could end with this score, so that Manchester City would still have the initiative in the championship.
But things did not go as planned. In the 80th minute of the game, Drogba, who came on as a substitute, scored a header in front of the goal through a set-piece!
In the end, Chelsea defeated their opponent with difficulty at home with this goal!
And their points were two points ahead of Manchester City again!
Now the initiative to win the championship is on Chelsea's side!
In the newspaper the next day, David Jones, who had not been active for a long time, started his performance again: "Manchester City's draw can be said to have ruined their efforts throughout the season. There is no way, the combination of young players and rookie coaches is easy to fall apart at critical moments. Now, they are likely to face a situation where they will lose all four major goals!"
This column made Tuchel very angry: "You are the rookie coach, your whole family is rookie coaches!"
Yang Luo on the side comforted: "He has been disgusting for more than one or two days. It doesn't matter, we will invite him to be a guest when we win the championship, and see if he dares to come!"
At this time, they were sitting in the office, discussing the next training plan.
Although they gave the players two days off, neither of them chose to rest.
Now there are only two games left in the whole season, they just want to make sure that these two games can be played well and put a perfect end to the season.
The last league game is at home against the weak team Portsmouth, and there is a week of rest before that.
With this rest time, most players should be able to rest.
So this game
There shouldn't be much suspense.
However, to win the championship, it is not enough to just win this game, but also depends on the result of Chelsea's game.
In the last game, Chelsea will challenge Newcastle away, and there is a certain possibility of overturning!
Time quickly came to May 14, 2005.
Manchester City sent all possible main players in this game to ensure the victory of this game.
And Manchester City players did not disappoint, and established a 2-0 lead in less than 20 minutes after the start of the game, which can be said to have basically locked the victory of this game.
But Yang Luo and Tuchel were still paying attention to the dynamics of another game at the same time.
Not only them, but even the fans were constantly paying attention to another game through various channels.
Just when the game was in the 31st minute, a huge cheer suddenly broke out in the stands!
And Yang Luo also got the news that Alan Shearer opened the scoring for Newcastle!
This made them extremely excited.
As long as Chelsea cannot win this game, Manchester City will win the championship with a goal difference advantage!
In the last stage of the first half, Manchester City scored another goal and completely locked the victory of the game.
After the result of the game here was no suspense, everyone's attention was focused on the other game.
But when the game reached the 65th minute, bad news came.
Chelsea equalized the score by Lampard!
And if Chelsea can score another goal next, the championship will belong to them!
Lineker and others in the studio are also paying attention to two channels at the same time to share the dynamics of the championship in real time.
Lineker couldn't help but say: "It's been a long time since I had such an exciting championship battle. My heart beats very fast."
Alan Hansen also nodded: "The competition between the two teams continued to the last round. This is indeed a well-matched opponent!"
And Chelsea has pressed all the players after scoring the equalizer. Obviously, they also know that there is no difference between a draw and a loss!
But as time went by, their chances of winning the championship became slimmer and slimmer.
Newcastle, who had long lost their desire, showed a very strong fighting spirit, which made Chelsea very uncomfortable.
And just when the game reached the 86th minute, Chelsea's hero appeared.
Chelsea got a corner kick opportunity, and chaos suddenly occurred in the penalty area after the corner kick.
In the chaos, Dacourt stretched out his foot and poked the ball into the goal!
