After Kuyt used a hat-trick to help Liverpool lead three goals, Ferguson knew the situation was out.

With Manchester United's current form, it is difficult to score four goals in the remaining twenty-five minutes to complete the reversal.

The pressure on Manchester United in this game may be too great. In the game against Liverpool, did they want to win too much? Instead, it affected their performance.

Liverpool was not easy to play and was still very impatient. How could it be a good result?

But Ferguson doesn't think this pressure is what he gives to the players.

But Manchester City.

After deciding to catch up with Manchester City in the league and compete for the league championship, the pressure has been with Manchester United players for a long time.

Ferguson also knew this very well, but he couldn't relieve stress. At the critical moment of the league competition, it was normal to have pressure, and it was normal to have high pressure. It was useless to relieve stress at this time. The only way was to grit your teeth and survive, and to endure it until you finally win the championship, and the pressure would naturally be gone.

Or just waiting for their competitors to make mistakes, it will also relieve Manchester United of pressure.

At the beginning, when Glory was gone, Manchester City could make mistakes, such as being tied by Arsenal, Blackpool, and Aston Villa...

These games can help Manchester United relieve stress.

Manchester United also thanks to their outstanding performance to only two points.

As a result, as soon as Glory came back, Manchester City began to win continuously. Every time Manchester City won, it puts some pressure on Manchester United players.

This pressure accumulates continuously, and becomes heavier and heavier.

During the same-city derby, Manchester City beat Manchester United away, and the pressure has turned into a heavy cloud above Manchester United players' heads.

There was lightning and thunder in the clouds, as if heavy rain could fall on their heads at any time.

After losing to Manchester City, although Manchester United beat Wigan Athletics with a 4-0 score in the next league, it seemed that it was just an inertial performance of Manchester United's advancement before.

In this game, when he encountered a strong rival Liverpool, Manchester United's inertia disappeared.

The pressure turned into a raindrop as big as a bean, falling densely from the air, hitting every Manchester United player's head and body, making them unable to open their eyes or raise their heads.

They were completely out of shape during the game, and even if Ferguson was at halftime, the hair dryer was fully powered, it would be useless.

Ferguson was chewing gum mechanically, and the Liverpool fans in the stands of Anfield Stadium were cheering. He could imagine that at Manchester City Stadium, those Manchester City fans were probably cheering too.

Looking back now, what step did you fail to do the right thing?

Every step is done right.

If you have to say what the problem is... Ferguson believes that the problem is in the Asian Cup.

If the Asian Cup schedule is longer, if the Asian Cup final was not on January 29 but on February 12, Manchester United might have beaten Manchester City and become the number one.

It’s a pity that before that, Rongguang returned to the team.

His return to Manchester City has changed drastically.

There are nine rounds left in the league, with eight points apart... Ferguson really couldn't imagine how to surpass Manchester City with glory.

In the 80th minute, Sneider scored a long shot outside the penalty area, locking the score of the game at 3:0. In the remaining ten minutes, it was basically difficult for Wigan Athletic to threaten Manchester City's goal.

Benitez used up all three substitutions, allowing more starters to get rest and allowing more substitutes to have more playing time.

Manchester City fans have already started to mention celebrating the victory of this game.

At Anfield Stadium, Manchester United scored a goal in the 89th minute, "Little Pea" Hernandez, who relied on a substitute, and saved some face.

But this ball can also be said to be meaningless. For Manchester United, they don’t need face, they need victory and champions!

Hernandez's goal cannot bring them victory or championship, and this face cannot be eaten.

When the game ended, every Manchester United player looked very frustrated with his head down.

Liverpool players are celebrating their victory.

At home, they completely smashed Manchester United's hope of winning the championship, and their goal was achieved!

Liverpool fans who are farther away from the championship are so happy to see Manchester United lose hope for the championship!

It felt like they had won the championship by themselves... This shows how deep the hatred between the two teams is.

※※※

"The competition is over!"

At Manchester City Stadium, the referee blew three times and announced the end of the game.

Even Manchester City players on the court already knew about Manchester United losing the game, which means they were eight points ahead of Manchester United.

Hopes to win the championship have increased significantly, or they are already 90% able to win the championship.

Everyone was very happy to think about defending the league championship.

However, the expression on Rong Guang's face was not as excited as his teammates. His smile was very light, but it was not obvious and not arrogant.

Because the goal of glory has not been accomplished.

The league championship is just one of them.

Rongguang never doubted the defending title, and he thought it was certainly OK.

The key is how to defend the title.

Defend the title without defeat!

Winning this game is Manchester City's 46th consecutive league unbeaten.

There are three games left to Arsenal's record and four games left to surpass Arsenal's record.

All this season.

The closer you get to the record, the harder it is. So Glory will not take it lightly. Now he feels that it is not time to celebrate.

However, he just thought about this idea in his heart. He did not tell his teammates. Because when everyone is celebrating victory, he is stern and demanding everyone not to be happy too early, which is too cold water.

If there is any pressure, just let him bear it himself.

As for your teammates, just have fun in time.

After the game, the whole of England was discussing whether the title of the Premier League championship was no longer suspense.

After Manchester United lost to Liverpool, Manchester City won the ball again, and the points gap between the two teams reached eight points. With Manchester City's current state, it is very difficult for Manchester United to catch up.

Most people tend to think that Manchester United has no hope.

Ferguson insisted at the post-match press conference that the season was not over yet.

"…I know our situation now, but I don't think it's so bad that we can give up. We still have a chance!"

His statement was ridiculed by the media as "a dead duck's stubborn voice."

"Can Manchester United beat Manchester City to win the championship? Unless the Suns come out from the west!"

"Ferguson said this just to show their unyielding spirit, but it is useless. Whether he still has hope of winning the championship is no longer the final decision..."

Manchester United has dominated the Premier League championship for a long time, and Ferguson is also a strong and domineering person, so it is not very likable in the journalist circle. Many media like the various domineering behaviors of Ferguson. Now seeing Manchester United is in trouble, the media are gloating.

This is how the media is. When they hated Manchester City before, they thought it was too easy for Manchester City to win the championship, they cheered Manchester United one after another, hoping that Manchester United could put pressure on Manchester City and make the league better.

Now that we see that Manchester United is out of the way, we immediately start the taunt mode of Manchester United.

This is true for the media, no wonder many people don’t like them…

Rongguang did not mention the unbeaten in the league. He hoped to take all the pressure and responsibility on himself so that his teammates could face the next game with a relaxed attitude.

But he obviously underestimated his teammates.

After the game against Wigan Athletic, Manchester City players did not slacket off just because they were already eight points ahead of Manchester United in the league.

Their attitude during training is still very focused and serious.

In fact, no one has forgotten what Sun Hai asked them for.

Help Glory win the unbeaten record in the league and surpass Arsenal!

Now we are only three games away from this record, why do we lose the final moment because of slackness?

After playing against Wigan Athletics, Manchester City ushered in the second leg of their Champions League quarter-finals.

This time Manchester City faces AC Milan at home.

But in fact, there are no more conceits in this game.

AC Milan, who lost three goals at home, has difficulty making a comeback away again.

The final result was the same. At his home court, Manchester City and AC Milan scored 0:0, and finally eliminated AC Milan with a total score of 3:0 and advanced to the quarterfinals.

The first place in the Serie A league missed the quarterfinals, which can be regarded as a demonstration of how decline the Serie A is now...

In the 30th round of the league, the gap between Manchester City and Manchester United became the first league game after eight points.
To be continued...
