Shocking the world of football! Manchester United was massacred, and Arsenal smiled
This past weekend, the football stadium staged a thrilling show that left the fans in awe. One of the most striking is the pinnacle clash between Manchester United and Arsenal, rivals in the Premier League. One suffered a Waterloo and fell to the bottom and fell into a deep crisis; The other team is proud to sit in the lead position, and is on the verge of coveted Champions League qualification. Let's keep an eye on the hot spots in the arena and find out the causes and consequences of this mortal enemy battle.
Manchester United suffered a humiliating 4-0 defeat
The ammunition and food were exhausted, and the army was defeated like a mountain. Manchester United's 4-0 defeat at home to Brighton & Hove Albion left the Red Devils fans laughing and crying. Who would have predicted before the game that this giant would be so embarrassed at home? Judging from the performance on the field, Manchester United's defense, midfielders and forwards are on strike in an all-round way, all of them are as listless as the walking dead.
The defensive line is full of holes, the midfield is useless, and the forward line is on standby. Ronaldo watched his teammates become "oxygen-deficient zombies" one by one, and he couldn't do anything about it, and his resentment was hard to get rid of. Such a record is afraid that it will break Manchester United's many shameful records in the Premier League.
The team's abnormal sluggish form is directly related to Wenger's departure. With the departure of this meritorious manager, Manchester United suddenly lost its backbone, like three foxes without the leading fox, and the overall command system was completely paralyzed. Coupled with the fact that the new manager has not been able to complete the transformation from morale to tactics for a long time, it is not surprising that Manchester United have fallen to the ground.
Arsenal beat Wolves and the Jedi turned the tables to save life
On the other hand, Arsenal defeated Wolves 2-1 at home, although it was a mixed blessing, but the joy of winning a game was far better. At one point, Wolves roared ferociously, chasing two goals in a row to push Arsenal into a corner. But in the end, Lacazette struggled to the death before the end, and a world-wave strike saved the Gunners' desperate needs.
This life-and-death battle is symbolic. Arsenal secured their European place and are one step closer to returning to their coveted Champions League fixtures. It was particularly difficult against a skillful Wolves side, and Alexandre Lacazette's unwavering strike was impressive.
"It's not over yet, there are more thrilling stories waiting for us!" The fans were excited. Yes, for the arch-rivals of Arsenal and Manchester United, a new round of the journey has just begun.
The ironclad trap is hard to beat, and Manchester City beats Liverpool
In another Premier League match, Manchester City beat Liverpool 1-0 at home to gain the upper hand in the title race. The game fell into a stalemate, the two sides met like two wolves, you come and go, and they are equal.
However, Manchester City won a narrow victory over Liverpool with excellent tactical discipline and an iron bucket line-up. Guevara made a good shot in the middle, and Haaland smashed his header into the net to help the Blue Moon fight hard and fight his way out of the encirclement.
The Neyderby victory gave Manchester City a narrow advantage in the standings and a solid step away from the defending champions. However, given Liverpool's tenacious monstrosity, we'll have to wait and see how this battle for supremacy turns out.
Claudio Ranieri regains his nightmare Barcelona sends Napoli home
In addition, there have been some eye-popping results in the Europa League. La Liga powerhouse Barcelona thrashed Napoli 4-2 on aggregate and advanced to the round of 16.
Although this old giant team is in a slump, it has not given up its determination to enter the encirclement. The new army led by Harvey is flesh and blood, and it is gradually getting better. Barca's form in the Europa League has been encouraging, and they are making a comeback to their former glory.
For Napoli, Ranieri's nightmare returned, and it was difficult to find a win at home, and the road to the Europa League came to an abrupt end. The Serie A powerhouse will undoubtedly save the glory craving for next year.
At the moment, Barcelona have become the favourites to win the Europa League. This majestic image makes people spontaneously give birth to a kind of domineering spirit that chases the Central Plains and revitalizes the majesty.
Sevilla FC defeated Celtic and went out
Also in the Europa League and Europa Conference League, two more traditional powerhouses that were once arrogant have collapsed.
Sevilla, who have been known as the "King of the Europa League" for many years, were unexpectedly counterattacked in the play-offs this time. In the end, although they lost 0-1 to Dinamo Zagreb, they only passed 3-2 on aggregate with a 3-1 victory in the first leg. For this La Liga powerhouse, they must be looking forward to turning things around in the main stage and striving to defend their title.
On the other hand, Celtic, who won the Champions League twice in 08 and 67, are also in trouble in the Europa League. The Scottish powerhouse lost to Bodo Glimt and unfortunately stopped in the play-offs. Although the team has recovered from its stubborn illnesses at home and is in good form, it is clear that it will take time to return to the top.
Overall, last week's key football match brought us a lot of shocks and surprises. Some people will not fall into darkness, and some people will turn the tide and move towards the light, which is where the majestic power of football lies. It's so twisty and bizarre that it fascinates us so much.
