The league is over, but Manchester City's preparations are not over yet.

Because they also have to prepare for the FA Cup final.

In the media, when the last round of the league ended, countless people were discussing the final results Manchester City had achieved and discussing their return to the Champions League.

Manchester City fans were very happy, while Assen was deceased.

But there is no way, the quota is limited. Since Manchester City has risen, other teams will inevitably be replaced.

It's just this time it's Arsenal's turn.

After the end of the season, the Manchester Evening News made two special topics to review Manchester City's return to the Champions League.

First of all, starting from the 196-196 season, it was Manchester City's last time to participate in the Champions League. Then, in the long thirty-nine years, Manchester City had fallen and had a brief glory, but they all missed the Champions League.

In the past 39 years, the value of this event and its technical and tactical level have become increasingly higher, and it has even surpassed international events such as the European Cup and the World Cup.

But in the rapid changes in world football, Manchester City can only be a spectator from beginning to end.

It seems that they have nothing to do with European football.

This article accounts for half of the first issue of the topic.

Next, let’s focus on this season.

Starting from the entry of the Abu Dhabi consortium into the club, talking about the hope that Glory's joining brings to Manchester City fans, talking about the speech that Glory excited Manchester City fans at the joining ceremony, and also talking about the poor performance of Manchester City under the leadership of Mark Hughes, talking about the dismissal of Mark Hughes, talking about the inauguration of Benitez, talking about the passionate Jedi counterattack in the second half of the season... Talking about several very critical games, Bl defeated Liverpool away, Aston Villa 30 home, Chelsea away, Arsenal away, and Manchester United away. It was these key games that finally allowed Manchester City to stand at the fourth place in the league at the end of the season and return to the European Championship

The whole topic has huge confidence, so I can only do it in two issues, and I can’t finish it together.

Pictures and texts are rich and full of emotions.

Many Manchester City fans even bought it specifically to collect it, and took it out to tell their children about this season that was like a roller coaster after many years.

After the Premier League ended, the most important game in European football was the Champions League final. This is the second consecutive year that Manchester United led by Ferguson reached the Champions League final. Last year in Moscow, Manchester United beat Chelsea led by Grant, the second Champions League championship in his coaching career.

This time, the aggressive Manchester United plans to defeat Barcelona in Rome and become the first team to successfully defend the title after the Champions League reform.

Their opponent is Barcelona led by young coach Guardiola.

This is a contest between both teams that hope to become the Triple Champions League.

In this highly anticipated game, Manchester United lost to Barcelona 02. Cristiano Ronaldo did not score in the final, and his performance was completely blocked by Barcelona's new king Messi.

After winning the league championship, Barcelona won the Champions League again. Now, as long as they return to China to win the Spanish Cup of Dec, they will become the first triple-champ in Spanish football history.

And what about Manchester United?

The Champions League dream was shattered, which was a huge blow to them.

But if they can win the FA Cup, they can be considered a double champion at least...

The Champions League final ended and Barcelona reached the top. The next day, European media generally believed that this represented a renewal of the number one player in football today.

In 205, Kaka helped AC Milan defeat Liverpool in the final and won the Champions League, and he became the world's number one person. That year he won all kinds of honors. The World Footballer and the European Golden Ball Award were the two most brilliant pearls on his honor list.

In the 2UU Champions League final, Ronaldinho led Barcelona's "Dream II" to win the Champions League championship, and he also replaced his compatriots and became the new World Footballer at the end of the year.

In 207, Rongguang successfully took revenge in the Champions League final, defeating AC Milan led by Kaka. While making Bayern Munich a double champion, he also topped the top for the first time and won heavyweight honors such as the World Footballer and the European Golden Ball Award.

Then when Glory was injured, Cristiano Ronaldo helped Manchester United defeat Chelsea and become the new king of Europe. Cristiano Ronaldo naturally took over Glory's trophy for the World Footballer and the European Golden Ball Awards.

Now, Messi beat Cristiano Ronaldo and achieved success in Barcelona. This year, he won the World Footballer and the European Golden Ball Awards.

In the past year, when the media mentioned Cristiano Ronaldo, they said that he is the best player in football today. But from today on, people will have to mention Messi's name again.

But whether it is glory or Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi, they all have one common characteristic, that is, they are very young.

Rong Guang, born on September 6, 192, is only twenty-three years old this year, Cristiano Ronaldo, born on February 6, 192, is twenty-four years old, Messi is even younger, and he is only twenty-one years old this year, born on June 6, 1987.

In comparison, Kaka, the world footballer in 205, was already considered an old man when he was born in 2019...

A rapid youth storm has blew up in the world football world.

Manchester United lost the Champions League final, so what impact will it have on Manchester City?

It seems not, but it actually exists.

Manchester United, who was injured in the Champions League final, was like a beast. The injury made them even more angry, and their desire for a FA Cup championship became stronger.

After losing one championship, another championship must be compensated.

So the FA Cup final will definitely be more intense than the previous predictions.

Manchester United is likely to vent their anger in the Champions League final on the FA Cup final and on their opponent Manchester City...

"Is there such a saying?" Rongguang looked at Debola.

Debola put down the newspaper and said to Rongguang: "Anyway, this newspaper says so."

"Because Manchester United lost the Champions League final, they will vent their anger on us?" Rongguang felt that the logic of the media's analysis was too interesting. He spread his hands and said, "So blame us?"

Deborah was amused by his tone.

The team finished training the next day, and Rong Guang stayed alone on the training ground to practice free kicks for himself.

When he was almost finished practicing and returning to the locker room, he met Benitez.

"Have you read the analysis in the media?" Benitez didn't greet Rong Guang either, and asked straight to the point after seeing him.

"You mean the article about what impact will Manchester United lose the Champions League final have on the FA Cup final?" Rong Guang asked.

Benitez nodded: "What do you think?"

"I think...it's nonsense." Rong Guang looked up at the sky and said.

"No, that's not nonsense." Unexpectedly, Benitez did not agree with Rong Guang's view, but instead agreed. "My thoughts are the same as the media. But not just because Manchester United lost the Champions League final, but because they lost to us at home before. When Ferguson found that conventional tactics could not stop you, maybe he would use some other methods. In short, be careful in the game, Rong."

"how?"

"Maybe they'll foul you, just like the last ten minutes of the last derby."

Rongguang suddenly thought of the scene at that time. It was really... He could hardly play football well. He was constantly organized by Manchester City players using fouls or non-fouls. He played a very awkward game in the ten minutes because the game could not be played normally and smoothly...

"Be careful in the game, Rong, don't be injured." Benitez said, turned around and left, and did not continue to chat with Rong Guang.

Rongguang stood there, frowned slightly, as if he was imagining what would happen if he thought of those ten minutes of the whole game...

He thought about this for a while, then gave up the idea of ​​going back to the locker room, and returned to the training ground to continue practicing free kicks.

He kicked the ball towards the goal with one left foot.

The football went around the human wall and drew a clear arc in the air, then drilled into the upper right corner of the goal

"Losing the Champions League final is not the end of the world. We will continue to look forward, and the next FA Cup final is equally important. The team will do their best." Ferguson's face turned slightly red on the TV and said in the face of the dense microphone.

"There are rumors that Ronaldo has once again developed the idea of ​​leaving Manchester United because he lost the Champions League final. May I ask..."

Ferguson interrupted the reporter before he could finish his question: "Nonsense. Cristiano has been very happy at Manchester United, he will not leave."

Then the picture changed and returned to the studio.

The host said: "Although Ferguson is abbreviated as Cristiano Ronaldo, he will not go anywhere, but in losing the Champions League final, his words are not credible... The next FA Cup final becomes very critical. If Manchester United can't even win the FA Cup, it will be afraid that Cristiano Ronaldo's idea of ​​leaving Manchester United will be further deepened..."

Rongguang pushed the door from outside and saw such a picture playing on the TV screen.

Debola, who was sitting on the sofa, turned her head and looked at him.

"Are you finished practicing?"

"Yaoyao is asleep?"

"Just just fell asleep. A reporter on TV asked Ferguson how he would deal with you in the game. Guess what he said?"

Rongguang shook his head: "I don't know."

"Nothing to tell." Deborah chuckled. "You gave Ferguson a headache."
