Football: Starting from the Ronaldo Template

Chapter 122 How will you face failure? (fifth update)

Manchester City did not seem to be affected by the loss to Manchester United. They defeated Watford 3-1 and followed closely behind Manchester United, patiently waiting for the opportunity to return to the top of the list.

As for the rest of the Premier League BIG6, they also got off to a good start.

阿森纳2-2切尔西，利物浦2-1伯恩利，热刺2-0斯旺西。

Although Burnley lost the game, their recent momentum has been strong, surpassing Leicester City with a wave of three consecutive victories and ranking seventh in the standings.

1 month 6 day.

The third round of the FA Cup begins, and Manchester United faces Derby County, a British Championship team.

Mourinho didn't take this game to heart at all, and arranged a full rotation lineup, and even brought in several players from Manchester United's youth team.

Even so, Manchester United won the game 2-0.

After all, it is not too unusual for the substitutes in the Premier League team to be greater than the main players in the Championship team.

1 month 16 day.

Round 23 of the Premier League.

Manchester United played against Stoke City. Chu Feng's performance in this game was mediocre, and he did not make any outstanding moves. The few shots he took were all saved by the goalkeeper.

Fortunately, his teammates were strong enough. Pogba scored twice and Lukaku scored a single goal.

In the end, Manchester United defeated their opponents 3-0.

After the game, Chu Feng didn't pay too much attention to this. After all, if he could score every game, he would definitely win the Golden Boot award.

As for Manchester City, they suffered their second defeat this season, losing to Liverpool 3-4.

Perhaps it's because Manchester United broke Manchester City's unbeaten streak.

Therefore, Premier League teams began to copy the correct answer, using strong pressure to block Manchester City's backcourt and launch attacks on the spot.

And Liverpool's "crazy running flow" fits perfectly.

Coupled with the reinforced defense line, they can maximize the intensity of pressure.

Manchester City's "pass and control flow" was inevitably curbed, and many mistakes even occurred, but they still have strong offensive power.

In just 9 minutes, Firmino assisted Chamberlain and scored a goal.

In the 40th minute of the game, Kyle Walker broke through and crossed from the wing, and Sane scored the equalizing goal.

After the start of the second half of the game.

Liverpool's high press was even crazier.

Many of Manchester City's counterattack opportunities were destroyed by Van Dijk. Liverpool even scored three goals unstoppably in just ten minutes, which directly stunned Manchester City.

After Guardiola's adjustments, the Manchester City players woke up near the end of the game and scored two goals in a row.

But it was no use.

In the end, Liverpool 4-3 Manchester City. This was a wonderful offensive battle, and it also symbolized that Liverpool's lineup had no flaws and returned to the championship group.

Manchester United fans have not been happy for a few days. In the 24th round of the Premier League, Manchester United 0-1 Burnley.

Manchester United had many opportunities throughout the game, but they seemed to be cursed and couldn't score.

Beams and columns.

No one thought that it would be Burnley who ended Manchester United's unbeaten record at home.

There were sounds of regret in Old Trafford, and the expressions of Manchester United fans were very disappointed. They originally wanted to tie or even break Arsenal's 49-game unbeaten record.

But the reality is always so cruel.

The same was true for the Manchester United players on the green field, and everyone's faces were full of annoyance.

"Actually, it's a good thing. Carrying that record all the time puts a lot of pressure on everyone."

"You don't have to think about it so much next, just do your best."

Gentle Mata comforted everyone from another perspective.

In fact, he has felt this way for a long time. The Manchester United players kept chasing records and their mentality gradually became unbalanced.

To put it simply, it means worrying about gains and losses.

This is a big problem for players. They dare not make moves during the game and pass the ball safely. Failure will happen sooner or later.

It could even lead to a collapse.

Although it’s inappropriate to say this, it might be better to lose earlier.

"Yes, aren't we still number one in the standings now? Don't put too much psychological pressure on yourself." Ibrahimovic also stood up and comforted.

Only then did Manchester United's young players calm down. They had indeed valued records too much before.

Chu Feng's mentality remained very stable. He knew that his career was still very long, so there was no need to be too anxious. After all, one bite would not make him fat.

Improve your own strength first, and honor will definitely come to you.

at the post-match press conference.

"How does it feel to take three points away from Old Trafford?"

The Guardian reporter raised his hand to ask a question.

Burnley coach Dyche showed a confident smile, "Burnley defended the dignity of the Premier League and proved that Manchester United is not invincible and they also have weaknesses."

"As for ending Manchester United's record, to be honest, I don't care too much because those things have nothing to do with us."

"But I'm looking forward to the next schedule. Everyone should try their best to stop Manchester United and Manchester City. Maybe other clubs will win in the end."

The reporter continued to ask: "Who do you think it will be? Arsenal or Tottenham?"

"I do not know either."

Daichi shook his head.

At this time, there was another conference room.

"It's just a failure. If fans want to vent, they can express it on me."

"But I don't think they will."

"We had bad luck today, but a loss is a loss and I don't like to make excuses to defend myself."

"."

Mourinho didn't say much because he was already prepared.

Manchester United can't keep winning.

他们的实力也不允许，看看他们之前的战绩，2-1利物浦、2-1切尔西、2-1曼城，每场比赛都有着艰辛的过程。

After returning to the Carrington training base, Mourinho summoned the Manchester United players.

"You know I never lie. In fact, your performance today was pretty good, but you were a little unlucky."

"I have faced various failures in my coaching career, whether at Porto, Chelsea, Inter Milan or Real Madrid."

Mourinho paused and his tone became serious.

"But that just tells me that you're not perfect and have a lot to improve on."

"Let me give you an example, Sir Alex Ferguson, who you are all familiar with."

"When he faced a disastrous defeat of 3-0, he was able to face it all indifferently, accept the defeat calmly, and even gave my team the greatest respect by congratulating the whole team."

"You should know what happened next. He took the championship back from me."

Mourinho suddenly pointed his finger at himself.

"For another example, let's talk about me."

"In the eyes of the media, I always say to them, wow, how many championships have I won, I'm a championship coach, how special I am."

"But those are just perfunctory for amateurs, just to entertain the public."

"To my friends and comrades-in-arms, I will say to them that what I am most proud of in my life is that I can still firmly adhere to my rationality and use a brave way when facing so many failures. To overcome adversity.”

"So I hope you can look at failure with the same attitude."

Mourinho smiled and left the last words.

"And this is just a defeat in the league. In fact, you can think about it. If you fail in the Champions League final or the World Cup final, you may feel better."
