Manchester United came with hope and confidence to win.

The entire Manchester United club, including coaches, players, fans, and support media, hopes that Manchester United can defeat Newcastle United. The reason is not only the League Cup, but also the league competition. Manchester United and Newcastle United are not much different. They are strong contenders for the league championship, and their points have been rising rapidly after the year. But everyone knows that if Manchester United wants to defeat Newcastle United in the league competition, they must win Newcastle United head-on.

This is very important.

If Newcastle United loses every time, even if the points are not lost, it will cause a huge blow to the morale of the entire team.

The competition is very important now.

They must win to make the team confident, and the hope of winning in the next league will be higher.

In the last round of the League Cup semi-finals, Manchester United's defense made consecutive mistakes and even scored an own goal, which was considered a "unconfidence" performance by the media. "Manchester United lacked confidence in Zhen Shaolong's defense in the backcourt, and they have never succeeded. Even if Ferguson said it was confident, Zhen Shaolong still maintained an extremely high goal efficiency. When facing Zhen Shaolong, Ferdinand, Vidic and other defending stars will feel nervous, and the tension will also lead to an increase in their mistakes..."

This is the media explanation.

Manchester United's backcourt players were very resentful.

Vidic and Carrick both felt that it was just a temporary poor performance, which had no confidence in facing Zhen Shaolong and did not have any slight relationship. Indeed... they didn't have much confidence in facing Zhen Shaolong, but that had nothing to do with the mistakes in the game.

Ferdinand...he believed that it was related to Zhen Shaolong's spiritual cultivation. If Zhen Shaolong convinced himself to complete the breakthrough, they would be affected and made mistakes.

Ahem.

No matter what, Manchester United is very confident.

Just as head coach Ferguson said, they felt that they had found a way to deal with Newcastle United. The last round was experience. They scored three goals in the whole game. Although the opponent scored four and showed extremely amazing efficiency, their mistakes were the driving force. As long as they could reduce the mistakes, they would definitely score more goals than their opponents.

Ferguson said this.

Manchester United players also highly recognize it.

Manchester United showed a confident attitude before the game, and the team's core C-Ronaldo said, "We will win back this game!"

"It's nothing to fall behind, we will score more goals!" When c-Ronaldo made his statement, the expression on his face was full of persuasion, and the iconic smirk at the corner of his mouth gave people the feeling that Manchester United could easily win.

Wayne Rooney, who has been comparing with C-Ronaldo for a long time, was not willing to fall behind and said in an interview, "I scored a goal in the last game, and I believe I will score more in this game."

"No matter what others say, victory will definitely belong to Manchester United!"

Other Manchester United players also expressed their opinions, talking about their confidence in winning and showing high fighting spirit. Then Rooney felt depressed when he looked at the report. Media reports were limited by the number of texts. Some media's online reports recorded in detail what each Manchester United player said, while others were limited by the number of texts, which could only describe some interview content.

Then.

C. What Ronaldo said was reported in detail, and others were easily 'cut'. Rooney was also among the 'cut'. His interview with other Manchester United players was that "others also expressed their confidence in winning."

"Others!?"

"Damn!"

Rooney read several reports in a row, and was so depressed that he almost vomited three points of blood. He didn't think anything about it in normal times. Compared with C-Ronaldo's treatment, the gap immediately emerged. He felt that C-Ronaldo was the Englishman, and he, the forward genius Wayne Rooney, was just a foreign player wearing an English skin, and was being treated seriously unfairly by the British media.

Finally Rooney sighed.

He has to admit that C-Ronaldo is indeed excellent. A wing player with a position back scores more goals than himself and can often assist the forward line. His personal performance and overall role are stronger than him. In the whole world football world, only Newcastle United's Zhen Shaolong is sure to be stronger than C-Ronaldo.

When I think of Zhen Shaolong, I think of the training method Ferdinand said.

At the end of the last round, Rooney had a careful conversation with Ferdinand. He heard what he said about the method of "training body and spirit together". The method of mental training is simply to constantly convince yourself, just like an extreme madman, constantly reminding yourself, "You can do it! You can score a goal! You can shoot immediately and you will definitely hit it accurately!"

Then, shoot!

Ferdinand's original words are like this, "First you have to close your eyes to help you concentrate. When you have more training in the future, you can try to open your eyes."

The method of physical training is very direct - squatting horse stance.

"Irving is training horse stance." Ferdinand's reminder made Rooney feel very convincing. Irving's performance has indeed improved recently. He ranks sixth and seventh in the scorer list, and his performance is significantly better than the previous two seasons.

Rooney hurriedly called Owen and got a very sure answer, "You want to train horse stance too? Wayne, your decision is right!"

"Extremely right, very right! Trust me!"

"Horse stance is very helpful, but I especially remind you that you must have perseverance and persistence. Training of horse stance is not easy, especially to explore yourself..."

After hearing this, Rooney suddenly became confident and even considered whether to hire a coach or a coach who teaches Chinese Kung Fu?

He hasn't decided yet.

Because the event has been going on, Manchester United's games are also very intensive, and most of the time is recovering. After spending the game, Rooney doesn't have much time trying to do new training. He also wants to prepare, such as specifying the training time, finding a friend to work with him to train together, and in addition, you can also hire a coach who can teach Chinese Kung Fu, etc.

Also, he didn't quite believe it.

Rooney hopes to go to the game and see Zhen Shaolong's performance so as to determine what Ferdinand and Irving said, and continue to convince himself that he can make up his mind at that time. So when facing the game against Newcastle United, Rooney hopes that Zhen Shaolong can perform well, and even say that he has amazing performance, even if Manchester United loses...

No!

Of course Manchester United will win!

The best result of both worlds is that Zhen Shaolong performed very well and continued to complete the hats in the game, while Manchester United scored more than five goals to eliminate Newcastle United.

Yes, that's it!

The game is coming.

Newcastle fans are looking forward to the game, not only because it is the semi-finals of the League Cup, but also because of the League Cup, Newcastle United won the league championship and the FA Cup last season, and winning the League Cup this season is equivalent to winning all the championships in England.

They are also very confident.

Another semi-final match was a match between Tottenham and Burnley. As long as they crossed the League Cup semi-finals, the worst they met in the final was Tottenham. Tottenham is also a very strong team, but there is still a certain gap with the top teams in the Premier League, including Manchester United, Liverpool and other teams.

This game is also confident.

In the first leg at Old Trafford, they beat Manchester United 4-3, and it was unreasonable to lose when they returned to James Park.

The fans are very confident and look forward to the game, so there are a lot of spectators coming.

St. James Park was full early, and many fans chose to use the huge TV screen in the square of the park to watch the live game at close range without buying tickets.

However, Newcastle United lacks confidence.

The players' mentality is better. Head coach Keegan is uncertain about the game. He won the game in a very unlucky way, mostly relying on the opponent's mistakes and Zhen Shaolong's personal performance. Manchester United showed strong suppression and offensive ability in the game. When he came to St. James Park to score a goal, he was still uncertain about what he would perform.

Keegan couldn't talk about confidence because he lacked control of the game and even lacked control of the team.

If his opponent is a downstream team in the league, he will definitely be very confident. Even if Zhen Shaolong does not play, he can still win with the strength of Newcastle United. If the opponent is Manchester United, it will be different. If Zhen Shaolong does not play, it cannot be said that he will lose 100%, but the chance of winning is definitely not high. Zhen Shaolong's performance is exactly what he cannot control.

I can only say that the game is controlled by Zhen Shaolong.

This sounds a bit sad. The head coach has no control over the team. The decision to win or lose is actually in the hands of a player, but this is the reality.

Keegan did not accept an interview before the game. He didn't know whether to express his confidence or talk about it in a low-key manner, but he had an idea that was certain, "When the season ends, we must introduce several capable players! The team must strengthen its strength!"

This is not difficult.

Even if Ashley is a well-known black-hearted sports businessman, he will definitely do the necessary investment. Only by maintaining good results can the club make higher returns and lead the team to achieve good results. Keegan is not afraid that he will not be able to convince Ashley.

If you have achievements, you have confidence!

On the field.

Newcastle United and Manchester United stood in good positions respectively, and were already waiting for the game to begin. Many Manchester United players looked at Zhen Shaolong. They knew that defending Zhen Shaolong was the key to the victory or defeat of the game. Let Zhen Shaolong play at will, and the goal must be kicked into a sieve. Mobile::

Zhen Shaolong didn't care about the look he faced. He was very confident in the game. The temporary skill "Breakthrough" was very effective. What's important is that the skill effect complemented his shortcomings - getting rid of insufficient ability.

This is the technical flaw.

Zhen Shaolong is very clear about his level and the characteristics of his skills. His shooting has approached perfection, and there are some methods such as "Predictory" and "Techniques", as well as unreasonable skills such as "Kill". However, just having strong scoring ability may not necessarily have good performance. As long as the opponent uses human-sea tactics to defend, or let two excellent defenders specifically keep a guard, he will still be very restricted because he lacks the means to get rid of it directly.

"Strike" is good, but it can only be used once.

Other abilities have nothing to do with getting rid of it. When facing the opponent's close-up, you must have the means to get rid of it to easily create good opportunities.

"Breakthrough" is a breakthrough, a skill to get rid of defense.

Now that "Breakthrough" is in hand, Zhen Shaolong dares to say that he is not afraid of any opponent, and is sure that no one can defend himself.

“Beep…”

The referee's whistle announced the start of the game.

Irving kicked the ball to Zhen Shaolong, and Zhen Shaolong passed the ball to Patton, and rushed forward quickly.

Carrick came over to defend immediately.

When Zhen Shaolong was about to run to the penalty area line, Ferdinand rushed over. The two kept following Zhen Shaolong, paying attention to the position of the football to prevent the opponent from receiving the ball.

After being closely guarded by two people, Zhen Shaolong also slowed down and ran towards the left.

Football is already at Enzobia's feet.

Enzobia wanted to drive the ball forward, but was entangled by C-Ronaldo. He kicked Gremy, and Gremy passed back to Gene, and Gene followed and kicked Barton.

Zhen Shaolong is still on the left, nearly ten meters away from the penalty area line.

This location is difficult to pose a threat.

Ferdinand also slowed down and stood near the penalty area line. He is a central defender and the commander of Manchester United's defense in front of the goal. It is impossible for him to follow too far. Carrick has no scruples. He was reminded to defend Zhen Shaolong.

When there is only one Carrick around, it is easy to get the ball.

Zhen Shaolong took the ball with his back to Carrick, constantly using his body to protect the ball, and also squeezed Carrick behind him. Carrick was worried about being broken and shook away, so he did not dare to go up to grab the ball rashly.

At this time, Zhen Shaolong paid attention to the position and felt that it was almost done.

To make a breakthrough!
