Chapter 889
Manchester United, whose destiny belongs to them, ushered in the 5th round of the Premier League at noon on May 5, local time in the UK, and challenged their city rivals Manchester City at the Manchester City Stadium.This is the second round of the Manchester derby this season, Manchester City's home court.

Since Manchester United had already won the league title ahead of schedule, this game was of little significance.At this time, Manchester City is not yet Manchester United's competitors in the league, so the weight of the Manchester Derby is far less than it will be in the future.Perhaps the people of Manchester City will think that this is a major game, but in the eyes of Ferguson and Manchester United, this is just a very ordinary league.

If you want to say something special, it is that although Manchester United is an away game, they don't need to go on an expedition, they just play at home.

Therefore, Ferguson did not hesitate to rotate most of the main players, almost playing with a substitute rotation.

Successfully defending the Premier League and reaching the Champions League final for two consecutive years, the morale of this Manchester United team is at its peak.So don't look at the Manchester United players who are mostly substitutes and rotation players, but their enthusiasm for the game is even higher than that of the main players.

Because for the main players, in such a meaningless game, they may take fish to avoid injury, but for these substitute players, there is no such thought.In order to have more opportunities to play, they will only do their best and will try their best to show their positive side.If he performs well and wins the trust of the old man, maybe he will get a chance to play in the subsequent FA Cup final or even the Champions League final?
However, the final result somewhat disappointed the Chinese fans, because Yin Jun was directly hidden by Ferguson, and he didn't even make the squad.As for Manchester City, Sun Jihai also sat on the bench.

In the end, in this game without Chinese participation, Manchester United beat Manchester City 1-0, and the points rose to 94 points. This is already the second highest point in the history of the Premier League, second only to the 99 points created by Manchester United last season. Record.

………………

Four days later, Manchester United traveled to London to challenge Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.This is a make-up match for the 4th round of the Premier League.

If the league is going on normally, this game could have been a battle between Manchester United and Chelsea for the championship.But because of the postponement of the game, this game has become tasteless.After all, Manchester United has already won the league championship in advance, so in this game, Chelsea is fighting more for dignity.

However, considering that there is still the final game of the Premier League on the weekend, and 10 days later, the two sides will compete for the FA Cup this season at the newly completed New Wembley Stadium, so Ferguson and Mourinho both sent Full bench lineup.

In the end, the two teams drew a goalless draw at Stamford Bridge.

People from Manchester United and Chelsea didn't care about such a result. Only some media criticized the passive sabotage of the two teams' entry, but such arguments did not cause much trouble at all.

Who would pay attention to a meaningless game?
Focus on next week's FA Cup final, or even the Champions League final two weeks later, wouldn't it be nice to win the championship?
………………

At 5 pm on May 13th, the Premier League ushered in the final round of matches, and all 10 league games started at the same time.

Manchester United sits at home to face the Hammers who are deep in the relegation zone, West Ham United.

Manchester United continues to fish, on the one hand to get enough appearances for some marginal players off the bench, and on the other hand to release water.The relationship between West Ham United and Manchester United is good. Now they need points to stay in the Premier League. Manchester United will naturally not be stingy to make some contributions when they have already won the championship.

Therefore, although Manchester United did not play all substitutes in this game, there were only four or five main players in the game, and most of the starters were substitutes.

Yin Jun has not entered the starting lineup for three consecutive games, but this time he has entered the substitute list.However, until the last minute of the game, Yin Jun did not get a chance to play off the bench, even though Manchester United fell behind at home in stoppage time in the first half.

In the end, West Ham United beat Manchester United 1-0 at the City Stadium and successfully avoided relegation.And Manchester United's unbeaten record at home, which lasted for nearly 4 years, finally came to an end.

………………

The last team to beat Manchester United was also a London team, Fulham, nicknamed "The Farmer".It was still in the distant October 2003, 10. In the 25th round of the Premier League that season, Fulham narrowly beat Manchester United 10:3 at Old Trafford.

In the following 3 years and 6 months, Manchester United has never lost in 108 games at home!

These 108 games include 70 Premier League games, 23 Champions League games, 9 FA Cup games, and 6 League Cup games!

In these 108 games, Manchester United won 93 games and only tied 15 games!
As a result, Old Trafford, Manchester United's home stadium, and Manchester City Stadium, which temporarily became Manchester United's home stadium this season because Old Trafford began to rebuild, are known as the most terrifying devil's home stadium in Europe!

在这期间,诞生了许多震惊欧洲足坛,乃至是全世界的比赛。比如2003-2004赛季英超第25轮曼联和米德尔斯堡踢出的那场荡气回肠的4:3,又比如2004-2005赛季英超第33轮曼联和切尔西之间那场3:3。

当然,最让人记忆深刻的还是2004-2005赛季英超第15轮曼联在主场8:2血洗水晶宫,以及欧冠八分之一决赛曼联在主场7:2屠杀德甲冠军云达不莱梅,还有本赛季欧冠八强战曼联在主场8:1虐杀罗马的比赛。

In these three games, Yin Jun was the direct director of the murder.

In the match against Crystal Palace, Yin Jun scored 3 goals with 2 shots and 5 passes.

In the match against Werder Bremen, Yin Jun made 5 goals in a single game again, and all 5 goals were scored, which made him the first player in the history of the Champions League to perform the miracle of five sons in the game. He is also the first super shooter who has performed the miracle of five sons in both the national team and the club!

在2004年2月18日,刚度过19岁生日不久的殷俊便在中国队对阵科威特的德国世界杯预选赛里单场打进5球,帮助中国队6:0血洗对手。

In this season's Champions League quarter-finals match with Rome, Yin Jun contributed 1 goal and 5 assists, becoming the first player in the history of the Champions League to perform a slap trick in a match.

Although Manchester United's home unbeaten record has been terminated, no one will think that this is the weakening of Manchester United's home control, and Manchester United's home is no longer the devil's home.

Everyone knows that Manchester United's home defeat is just the result of Manchester United's own release!
