I am Quaresma

Chapter 437: The First Battle with the Red Devils

A body portrait turmoil stole the limelight of the Premier League game. A Premier League top game did not enter the eyes of the fans until two days before the game. I have to say that sometimes gossip is more attractive than the game!

That's right, this round of Arsenal's opponent is the old rival Manchester United.

It is true to say that the game between Arsenal and Manchester United is the top battle, because Manchester United has overtaken Chelsea and is now ranked second in the Premier League standings, and they have thrown away Chelsea by a full 6 points. The gap in the game, this is the best result Manchester United has achieved under the pressure of Chelsea in three seasons.

However, although Manchester United surpassed Chelsea again, they were overwhelmed by Arsenal. For the Red Devils who are determined to rule the Premier League, this is simply the most unacceptable thing.

More importantly, the gap between Manchester United and Arsenal is too great.

After 22 rounds of the league, Manchester United and Arsenal have a gap of 10 points. This is no joke!

Although the season is long, anything can happen in the later period. The early results are excellent, and there are many people who collapse in the later period. Given the current configuration and state of Arsenal, I am afraid that no one thinks that Arsenal will collapse.

A gap of 10 points will make Manchester United chase to death!

Arsenal is not Newcastle, Wenger is not Keegan, there is no comparison.

To say that Manchester United's performance is actually very good. Up to now, although it is impossible to exceed the historical record of points in the same period, it can definitely rank in the forefront.

But the Red Devils, who have improved significantly, encountered an unreasonable Arsenal. They only got one draw in 22 games, and no other opponents took advantage of Arsenal.

Even Arsenal, who won the undefeated championship season, may not be as dominant as they are now.

So although this game is the top battle, it feels that the smell of gunpowder is not so strong. Even speaking, the result of this game will not affect too many things at all.

Even if Arsenal lost to Manchester United at home, there is still a gap of 7 points between the two teams, which is still enough for Manchester United to look up to.

What's more, Arsenal sitting at home will make the Emirates Stadium fall?

That is obviously impossible!

Therefore, from the very beginning, the confrontation between the two teams was no longer the tit-for-tat confrontation in the past, and the fans were also very rational, and seemed to prefer to see a game with technical content.

As for the results of the game, except for those fans who are addicted to buying lottery tickets, everyone really doesn't care much.

 …

Quaresma is destined to start this game, not to mention that he took a rest in the last game, just a rest of more than a week is enough for Wenger to send him on the field-even if his physical fitness is not good, it should be enough for such a long time Are you slowing down?

And facing Manchester United, an opponent who is not easy to deal with, how could Wenger not want to win a victory without suspense?

Not to mention anything else, just the little story between him and Ferguson-two bullets and one sent to Wenger-is enough for the black-bellied Wenger to give his all without reservation in the game against Manchester United.

You want to give me a bullet?

You and I will send you a few more failures!

Although Wenger may not be so shady, it does not prevent Quaresma from thinking so!

Two days before the game, when the Manchester United team was interviewed, the players expressed their determination to win, one by one vowed to win the game, and vowed that this game was the beginning of their overtaking Arsenal.

Naturally, Ferguson would not stop his disciples from going into a war of words, let them come first, and if they couldn't do it, they would go out on their own.

"Arsenal's performance this season is indeed amazing. They maintained a complete victory in the first half of the season. This is probably a record that is difficult to break!"

"But it is undeniable that the long journey to Japan to participate in the Club World Cup has consumed a lot of energy for Arsenal, and it is difficult to guarantee their physical fitness. This is also an important reason why their winning streak was ended!"

"So, don't look at them winning Liverpool and Blackburn in the previous two games, but in fact they should not be at their best."

"This is Manchester United's chance!"

"In terms of strength, Manchester United will not be inferior to anyone!"

"Even if it's an away game, we still have to win this game. I think Arsenal will collapse!"

"Especially after the Champions League knockout rounds, Arsenal must not be able to focus all their energy on the Premier League, and that is Manchester United's chance!"

 …

Ferguson's statement made all Manchester United fans excited. Although the 10-point gap is still there, as long as Ferguson has confidence, they will definitely be able to do it, right?

The Red Devils fans have a belief in Ferguson, just like believing in God.

If you simply study the theory, then there seems to be nothing wrong with Ferguson's words. If Arsenal wins this game, then Manchester United will only have a 7-point gap with Arsenal. Next, as long as Arsenal loses two or three more games, Manchester United will be on the verge of losing. There is a chance to catch up, that's the theoretical scenario.

Of course, it seems that these words can only deceive those who are unwilling to wake up.

Leaving aside anything else, do you really think that Manchester United will definitely win this game?

Moreover, while Arsenal make mistakes, Manchester United will not make mistakes?

If everything is based on assumptions, then there is no need to play games, just assume everything at home!

Regardless of what others think, I must assume Arsenal are the champions anyway!

For Manchester United's loud slogans, Arsenal seems to be calm and don't pay much attention to it. Even if the reporters want to find some news from Arsenal all day long to create conflicts in public opinion, they are always disappointed. And return.

Wenger loves to do it with!

Didn't Manchester United say they were going to win the championship?

Then use this game to completely kill Manchester United's hopes of winning the championship!

Anyway, the game starts in two days, so it doesn't matter what you want to say, everything depends on what happens two days later, and see if Manchester United can still make a fuss by then.

 …

On the day of the game, the Emirates Stadium was full of Arsenal fans early on. The Manchester United fans who were traveling with the team huddled in a small corner, watching the imposing Gunners fans, and couldn't help feeling jealous.

Arsenal just got lucky!

Otherwise, you can win 21 games by strength alone?

In any case, Manchester United will definitely not make Arsenal feel better in this game!

With such an idea, the Red Devils fans burst out with all their energy, wanting to make a little waves at the Emirates Stadium, so that the Red Devils players can see their existence.

However, before the waves turned up, they were suppressed by nearly a hundred times the home fans, and they couldn't make a sound.

Quaresma and his teammates walked onto the court to warm up and almost laughed out loud when they saw this funny scene.

Every time the fans go to the away game with the team, they are actually very hard-pressed. They are always suppressed at the opening stage, unable to speak out, and even in danger of being beaten by gangs. Otherwise, why do you think there are so many fights? of?

Well, that's the culture of English football and you can't change anything.

Looking at the Manchester United players who were warming up, Quaresma did not find any new faces. After all, the season has progressed to the present, and the starting lineup has long been fixed without accident. What's more, Quaresma was very familiar with Manchester United in his previous life.

The starting lineup of last season has basically continued, and with the growth of Ronaldo, Manchester United's strength is also improving day by day. This is the fundamental reason why Manchester United can overwhelm Chelsea.

Cristiano Ronaldo's progress this season is very obvious. Not only has he played a dominant role on the wing, but his finishing ability has also been greatly improved. At present, he is the top scorer in Manchester United's team.

As for Rooney, he is still as stable as ever, not reaching the level of a superstar, but he is better than a first-class star.

Coupled with the support of strong teammates and the training of Ferguson, Manchester United is still on the rise.

However, as a Portuguese genius, Ronaldo's sharpness is far inferior to that of his good friend Quaresma. This is probably what makes Ronaldo the most tormented.

Ronaldo is certainly happy for his good friend's achievements, but the problem is that he has fallen behind, has been falling behind, and seems to be getting further and further behind. How can Ronaldo accept this?

Cristiano Ronaldo finally became the real core player of Manchester United. This could have made him secretly happy, but when he thought that Quaresma had won the double footballer, how could he be happy!

Proud and arrogant, he also wants to win the Ballon d'Or and the World Footballer of the Year. This is the pursuit of every professional player.

When Quaresma looked at Ronaldo, Ronaldo also seemed to have a heart, looked at this side, and the two looked at each other and smiled, saying hello, but there was still an unconcealable feeling in the smile. fighting spirit.

A game is a game, and there is always a winner, isn't it?

Ronaldo wants to beat Quaresma, and Quaresma wants to continue to lead Ronaldo. It sounds contradictory, but this is actually a very unified idea.

Everyone wants to be the strongest!

Can't help but shake his head and chuckle. In fact, Quaresma knows that he has no need to put Ronaldo in a very important position. After all, the current Ronaldo is not the omnipotent Ronaldo later. Judging by performance, Ronaldo may be the top five in the world, but he is definitely not the one who will pose a threat to Quaresma.

But it is precisely because of the influence of his previous life on Quaresma that he will always put Ronaldo in a very important position, even if Ronaldo has not yet reached the level that makes him afraid.

Perhaps, next season's Ronaldo will be the beginning of the truly strongest Ronaldo!

So, how will you perform in this game?

Don't let me be too disappointed!

 …

After the warm-up ended, Wenger returned to the locker room. Wenger took the trouble to explain and consolidate the tactics to the players. His voice seemed to have a natural magic power, which could calm the fans down from their irritability.

However, Quaresma felt that mobilizing the emotional atmosphere in this way was actually not very good.

Originally, the players were very passionate and aggressive, but they all calmed down after being messed up by Wenger like this, but they didn't have the rainbow-like momentum just now. How can they play like this?

However, Henry is still a hard-working captain, and there is no way to mobilize the enthusiasm of the players. Therefore, Quaresma feels that he still needs to do something by himself!

So, when he walked out of the locker room, Quaresma clenched his fists in front of his chest and suddenly yelled: "Burn my calories!"

The atmosphere froze in an instant, and only the singing of the fans in the stands of the stadium floated in from afar and became the background music.

The teammates were all stupid, they had no idea what Quaresma was yelling at!

Quaresma is a little embarrassed. Shouldn't the script be that you also raised your arms and shouted after me, and then rushed out of the locker room screaming together?

You are looking at me so quietly now, I am very embarrassed!

I couldn't help being dejected, why couldn't their group of animals get their points?

Finally, someone couldn't help but burst out laughing, leading everyone to burst into laughter. The atmosphere that should have been serious and aggressive turned into what it is now. Quaresma didn't know whether to cry or cry. Laughed.

However, when the Arsenal players walked into the player tunnel together, their expressions immediately became serious, because the opposite Manchester United players had already appeared. Even if you don’t care about your image at home, you still have to maintain your image outside, especially in front of your opponents. of.

Everyone is old acquaintances, they have faced each other at least twice a season, and most of the teams are top-notch players and superstars, so there is still some superficial work to be done.

Ferdinand and Henry chatted cordially. Although Ferdinand might shovel Henry on the field later, this did not prevent them from saying hello first;

Quaresma is only familiar with Ronaldo, and he is very familiar with him, and he always communicates with him, so he doesn't need to do too much at this time. Just shaking hands and hugging each other is enough. Anyway, they The relationship is not for outsiders to see.

"I heard that you changed your girlfriend recently?" Quaresma couldn't help asking with a smirk.

Ronaldo shrugged indifferently, "This shouldn't be news!"

Quaresma rolled his eyes angrily. For Ronaldo's upright attitude, Quaresma really wanted to give him a chestnut.

Look at you, changing girlfriends is like changing clothes all day long, a typical playboy, look at me again, how dedicated and loyal, can't you learn from me?

Although Quaresma did not say this, Ronaldo understood what Quaresma meant, because Quaresma always used to educate him with that.

But Ronaldo didn't say anything more. Although he likes this kind of life, in fact, what's wrong with Quaresma's single-mindedness?

However, at this moment, Quaresma couldn't help being in a daze, because he suddenly remembered that he didn't seem to be so dedicated.

When I went to Porto to play a game, I had a friendly exchange with Theresa once. Although it was only this one time, you can’t pretend that it never happened.

Well, what qualifications do I have to preach to Ronaldo!

An embarrassed smile, missed this topic, and after hugging Ronaldo again, Quaresma returned to the Arsenal queue. The referee has appeared, and they are about to enter the field and prepare to start the game.

The cheers and applause of the Arsenal fans broke out on the opening stage. It was huge, rumbling like a volcano erupting, and the earth was cracked!

In such an atmosphere, Quaresma couldn't help a rush of blood from the soles of his feet to the top of his head, as if he was going to break through the top of his head and go straight to the sky.

He didn't know what state the saint fighters were in when the small universe exploded, but he felt that he must have more fighting power now than the small universe erupted.

No matter what kind of thoughts he has when he is off the court, every time he steps on this lawn, Quaresma feels that he has nothing else to do, only the opponent in front of him and the game are left in his eyes.

Kill the opponent, no matter who the opponent is, this is the only goal of the game!

There are some people who are strange. They may be submissive and timid at ordinary times, but whenever they touch their own beliefs, the whole world will be trampled under their feet.

For example, a special soldier may not really see how strong he is at ordinary times, and even thinks that he can be bullied at will, but once he steps on the battlefield, then, he is the murderous existence;

Quaresma felt that he should also be such a person, no matter how cynical he was off the court, but on the court, he was the most dazzling existence!

He wants to win this game!

Whether it is defeating Ronaldo!

It is still necessary to directly defeat Manchester United and completely clear away the obstacles for Arsenal to win the championship!

There is no room for loss in this game!

In essence, he is still unwilling to lose, unwilling to fail!

Standing in the middle circle and preparing to watch the ball, he squinted his eyes and looked at the Manchester United half very seriously. There, there were opponents waiting to be defeated by him!

So, are you ready?

Quaresma smiled as if he had won the world.

 …

"The players from the two teams have already entered the field and are ready to kick off. This crucial top game is undoubtedly for Arsenal and Manchester United. Therefore, the two teams have all deployed their main lineups!"

"The referee blows the whistle, Quaresma gives the ball to Henry, and the game officially begins!"

"Taking advantage of the opening opportunity, let me first introduce the starting lineups of the two sides in this game, and then we can analyze the strategies that the two teams may adopt through the starting list!"

"Arsenal playing at home is still the captain Henry single arrow, Quaresma and Ljungberg are separated on the left and right, Xiaofa appears in the midfielder position, and behind Xiaofa, it is Ballack and... . , oh no, my God, how did Quaresma end up in this position!"

"Quaresma got the ball, he got it on the right!"

"Evra is defending Quaresma, he keeps falling back!"

"It's over!"

"Quaresma flashes past Evra and cuts inside!"

"Kick up!"

"The ball has been scored!"

"Goal!"

"In less than a minute, Quaresma scored!"

"God, am I dreaming?"

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

 …

The commentator was still explaining the starting rosters of the two sides at the beginning, but at this moment, there was an instant murderous intention on the court.

No greetings, no temptations, just a bayonet hit!

Quaresma sprinted to the right at the beginning of the game, and next to him sprinted with him was Ljungberg, who should have been on the right.

Evra and Giggs were a little dazed for a while. They didn't know what to do when they faced Quaresma, who was completely unreasonable.

Giggs went to defend Ljungberg, while Evra had to mark Quaresma. Because of Quaresma's change of position, there were no extra defensive players on this side to assist Evra in defending Quares Smart.

Using multiple people to defend against Quaresma has long been recognized in football as a way to defend Quaresma, but now, with Evra alone, even if his defensive ability is good, how could it be Quaresma? opponent.

As a result, Quaresma directly dunked Evra, completed the inside cut cleanly, and then kicked the iconic outside instep curve ball to break through the goal guarded by Van der Sar.

Less than a minute after the start of the game, even on the court, only Henry, Xiaofa and Quaresma who shot the last goal touched the ball. The rest of the players didn't even touch the ball, and Quaresma scored a goal!

The commentator was so excited that his tongue was about to tie up, but he still couldn't restrain the excitement in his heart. He didn't want to shout loudly, completely forgetting that he was still doing the live broadcast.

At this moment, the Emirates Stadium was also boiling like a tsunami, falling into a frenzy.

Quaresma soared over the Emirates Stadium with open arms, his signature celebration.

The iconic outside instep curveball, his trademark cynical smile on his face, and now celebrating the goal with his signature move, so this moment is iconic Quaresma time!

It was as if something was about to explode in his chest, and the unparalleled pleasure made Quaresma feel as if he had ascended to heaven!

It's still the coolest to play goals for giants!

Even if he scored five or six goals with a kick, it would be more enjoyable than scoring one goal for a wealthy club!

Quaresma doesn't care about titles like "big family killer", what he wants is the joy from the bottom of his heart!

The teammates rushed over frantically and surrounded him. If he hadn't struggled hard, he would have been pushed down to the bottom to play Arhats now!

But even if he escaped the Arhat, the fate of his hair being ravaged cannot escape. Fortunately, he is used to it!

The Arsenal fans in the stands cheered and shouted excitedly. They were looking forward to winning, but the team still gave them a big surprise and took the lead from the first minute. Doesn't this mean that in this game they Maintain the most excited appearance the whole time?

Quaresma's goal was too abrupt and felt. It was really like undeclared war and dropped an atomic bomb directly on the opponent.

Manchester United hadn't reacted yet, the referee had just blown the whistle, and even the fans' opening cheers hadn't ended yet, and then, the home fans started cheering for the goal, who can stand this?

Evra was as depressed as if his father had died, he couldn't lift his head at all, his face was full of bad words.

Can this be his fault?

He is going to defend against Ljungberg this time, but who would have thought that Quaresma didn't play his cards according to the routine at all. In the first minute of the first attack, he changed positions. Do you think you are the starting right winger?

Quaresma, who should have appeared on the left, appeared on the right, so that Gary Neville, who should be defending Quaresma, had no way to start the game and support the other wing regardless of the formation. Maybe it was such a hesitation Kung fu, Quaresma scored!

For Manchester United, this blow is really a bit big!

If the game went on for a while and Quaresma switched to the right, then Manchester United would not be at a loss immediately, but Quaresma just caught an opening so nakedly, causing Manchester United to fall into an endless abyss .

Ferguson frowned on the sidelines and covered his chest with his hands. He felt that his heart seemed to be unable to bear the load.

Falling behind in the first minute, how do you play the rest of the game?

Ferguson had no bottom against Arsenal.

In his view, how long Arsenal's goal can be blocked is the key to determining the victory of the game.

If Arsenal can be successfully blocked in the first half, Manchester United will have a chance to win the game in the second half.

But now, before his plan could be implemented at all, there was no need to execute it, because Arsenal was already ahead.

After taking the lead, Arsenal can't be provoked. This is not the definition given by Arsenal itself, but the definition given to Arsenal by all opponents, including Manchester United, because they are facing a more calm Arsenal. There is really no way.

What should we do now?

Ferguson looked at the flustered players on the field, scanned them one by one, and finally fixed his gaze on Ronaldo.

Ferguson has always had a good eye for players, and the players he picks will not disappoint him. He believes that it is the same now.

Ronaldo is his most promising player. Ferguson knows that one day Ronaldo will become the top star in world football, and he firmly believes in this.

Even Rooney, an English genius who has placed high hopes on him, is not as talented as Ronaldo.

Now, he can only choose to continue to believe in Ronaldo, and believe that Ronaldo can save the defeat in an unfavorable situation.

This is a gamble, betting that Ronaldo can bring transformation and victory to Manchester United.

Of course, what Ferguson doesn't want to think about is that in Sporting Lisbon, he chose Ronaldo, but he didn't choose Quaresma...

If he brings both Portuguese youngsters to Old Trafford, it will be Arsene Wenger who will suffer now.

There are not so many ifs in the world, and Ferguson has already regretted it more than once, but this still can't change anything, so he can only choose to believe in Ronaldo.

At this time, Ronaldo on the court had firm eyes indeed. Compared with his teammates who were a little bit lost in a daze, the young Ronaldo was like a fighter. No matter how strong the opponent in front of him was, he would never give up.

"Ricciardo, glad you scored again!"

"However, I won't let you have the last laugh again!"

Ronaldo couldn't help muttering to himself, but his subconscious biting of his lips was enough to prove everything.

He was not as calm as he appeared.

Now, what he wants to do is to equalize the score as soon as possible.

He also wanted to be like Quaresma, the savior who saved the team in times of crisis.

He believes that he can do it!

The game restarted, and the atmosphere on the opening stage was still hot. The Arsenal fans even cheered with a little excitement and pride. In the past two seasons, Arsenal made them really laugh.

Manchester United kicked off, Rooney passed the ball to Saha, and Saha returned the ball to the midfielder. At this time, Ronaldo had already raised his hand on the right to ask for the ball. exactly the same.

The pinnacle of the Portuguese twins!

Looking at Ronaldo who is full of fighting spirit, everyone couldn't help but flash such a thought in their hearts!

Indeed, the current confrontation between Manchester United and Arsenal is almost a microcosm of the direct confrontation between Ronaldo and Quaresma, good friends.

Although Ronaldo is already the top star in the Premier League, there is still a certain gap between him and Quaresma. This gap is actually the gap between Manchester United and Arsenal.

When Ronaldo can really confront Quaresma, then Manchester United can compete with Arsenal!

Now, Ronaldo wants to challenge Quaresma?

So, wait and see!

The ball was passed to Ronaldo's feet. Ronaldo stopped the ball and turned around in one go. However, Gallas, who marked him, did not press too hard. He has developed a habit of defending Quaresma in normal training. He knows exactly what to use. Such a way to defend Ronaldo.

However, the current Ronaldo is not the one who puts more energy into finishing the offense. His breakthrough method is similar to that of Quaresma.

After a few fake moves, Gallas lost his center of gravity in a daze, and Ronaldo passed him cleanly.

At the same time, Ronaldo also simply completed the inside cut and shot a burst shot directly at the top of the arc in the penalty area.

The in-cut method is learned from Quaresma, but Ronaldo does not have the ability to curve the ball with the outside instep, so he can only choose a more direct shooting method.

Even though the angle is small, under the control of Ronaldo's gradually improved shooting skills, the ball still flew towards the Arsenal goal like a cannonball, and did not become an anti-aircraft gun.

Neither player in the penalty area could touch the ball. Even if Campbell wanted to block it with his body, he didn't have this opportunity.

The Arsenal fans in the stands couldn't help exclaiming, could it be that the lead just obtained will be wiped out by Ronaldo?

In this flash of light, Arsenal goalkeeper Lehmann calmly staged a good trick, jumping as if beyond the limit of the human body, saving Ronaldo's shot out of the goal range, trying to keep the goal intact.

A huge exclamation resounded through the Emirates Stadium, and Arsenal fans also unknowingly experienced a disaster.

Ronaldo held his head in disbelief. He thought the goal was a sure thing, but he didn't want to be blocked. He really couldn't accept it.

Even Ferguson on the sidelines looked like he had seen a ghost, so one can imagine whether other Manchester United players can calm down.

"Perhaps, Ronaldo is qualified to challenge like Quaresma, but this peak duel turned the two goalkeepers into protagonists!"

"Van der Sar was scored by Quaresma, Lehmann let Ronaldo's shot go in vain!"

"This is really a surprising result!"

The commentator said regretfully, in his opinion, Manchester United did not equalize, it can really be said that it was bad luck.

When any goalkeeper has a super performance and contributes to the magic save, the key is whether the magic save can bring the team victory.

Obviously, Lehmann's outbreak is just in time!

All the Arsenal players in the penalty area rushed over to hug Lehmann and gave each other high fives. If this goal is scored by Manchester United, then Manchester United may really be on the rise!

But at this time, Quaresma set his sights on Ronaldo. Although he didn't score a goal, Lehmann's save could not cover up the brilliance of Ronaldo. Ronaldo's performance just now is definitely a top superstar. Performance!

Very good, I'm afraid it's too boring!

I look forward to your next performance!
