Chapter 865 8:1

As the saying goes, the tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop.

When Gao Han and Cristiano Ronaldo broke up and were gradually replaced by other news events and became the focus of attention of all media and fans, the two European Cup qualifiers once again pushed the two masters and apprentices back to the forefront.

In just four days, Portugal defeated Denmark three-to-one at home, and then defeated Iceland three-to-one away. After two rounds of defeat, he immediately ushered in two consecutive victories. More importantly, in these two games, Cristiano Ronaldo contributed four goals and scored twice twice.

This undoubtedly shocked fans all over the world, and everyone was surprised by the amazing performance of the Portuguese superstar.

After defeating Iceland 3-1 away, Cristiano Ronaldo was interviewed by the media for the first time in the past two weeks, and publicly talked about various rumors from the outside world, saying that it was not the truth at all.

"I never thought about leaving Manchester City because I had a great time here, I had a great group of teammates, and coaches who trusted and supported me very much, I really like the Premier League environment and it suited me."

Cristiano Ronaldo expressed his gratitude to head coach Gao Han.

"I don't know where the rumors come from. You know, there are all kinds of news spreading in this world every day. We can't respond to it every time a news releases. This is unrealistic, because in that case we don't need to play football at all and change our careers to be a news PR, right?"

"I was unable to play in Newcastle because I accepted the team's internal punishment and banned for one game, and leaving the team early is also the boss's intention. Although he didn't say it, I understand that he hoped that I would prepare for the national team's game better. He knew me and knew that I missed the first two rounds of the group because of an injury, and my psychological pressure was always high."

"I think some rumors outside are funny, do you know? I will only clarify once, that is, there is no problem between me and the boss, I won't, and I won't have any conflicts with him."

"I admit that when I was substituted, I was indeed a little angry, but not for anyone, but a kind of mental state in my whole body... How to say, I really want to continue to help the team win, a little over-invested, but then I calmed down in the locker room for a while and I figured it out, so I came out again to congratulate my teammates on their goals."

"I think this is very normal, because in the game, everyone may be affected by the situation on the field, resulting in some emotional disobedience, but it is definitely not as outrageous as rumored by the outside world."

Cristiano Ronaldo said he was not worried about his situation in the team.

"Garres is a very good player. I know he works very hard and has great potential, but I never think we are in a competitive relationship. Our existence is to help Manchester City win games better. If the coaching staff thinks he is more suitable than me, I will follow the opinions and reflect on whether I am not doing well enough."

At the same time, Cristiano Ronaldo also publicly apologized to Manchester City's teammates and coaching staff with this interview, saying that his problems seriously affected everyone. He also promised to work harder to restrain himself, hoping to help Manchester City achieve more results in a better state.

After half a month of separation, Cristiano Ronaldo made a public voice, undoubtedly slapped all previous conspiracy theories loudly, but no one would pursue the various news produced by the media in the past period of time.

This is also a set of unspoken rules in professional football.

Gao Han quickly responded to the interview the Portuguese was interviewed in Iceland.

"I'm very happy to hear what he said, and I'm also pleased to see his outstanding performance in two games. I always thought he would be an indispensable part of the team, before, now, and in the future."

Regarding the upcoming eighth round of the Premier League, Gao Han said that Cristiano Ronaldo will be placed on the roster, but whether he can play will still need to wait until he returns to the team and participates in the team's training before making a judgment.

Gao Han and Cristiano Ronaldo responded one after another, undoubtedly giving a rest to the rumors of a breakup between master and apprentice that has caused a lot of controversy in the past half month.

Although there are still a lot of gossip outside, and there are still many rumors that this is just a conspiracy theory such as the two sides taking a step back and the conflict has not been resolved, this is no longer the focus of mainstream media reporters.

Even the fans don't believe such rumors.

…………

…………

October 16th, the eighth round of the Premier League.

Manchester City challenged Blackpool away.

Cristiano Ronaldo appeared in the team's lineup as promised, and his partner was Gareth Bale and center Benzema, and the Welshman appeared on the right.

Not only that, in the front midfielder position, Gao Han also arranged for Adam Larana to replace Kaka, and Milnade Modric, Manchester City's entire midfield and frontcourt were rotated significantly.

The same is true on the defense line. Mascherano and Zabaleta both participated in the Argentine national team match, so Gao Han arranged for Kompani to play on the right side, Fertonheng occupied the left side, and Xavi Martinez was in the center.

This can be said to be a half-main Manchester City second team, but its opponent Blackpool is not strong either.

Twenty minutes before the first half, Manchester City kicked the ball over the head, with Kompany and Gareth Bale scoring two goals in a row, among which Gareth Bale's goal came from Cristiano Ronaldo's assist.

But after the start of the second half, Manchester City's performance declined. Blackpool striker Fletcher received an assist from Campbell and scored a goal, which once made the game full of suspense again.

At the critical moment, Cristiano Ronaldo stepped forward and received Benzema's assist, surpassing Manchester City again, helping the Blue Moon finally defeated Blackpool 3-1 away and scored three-pointers.

Like in previous games, Gao Han never used a skill card in this game.

On October 19th, evening, the third round of the Champions League group stage.

Manchester City heads to Amsterdam to challenge Ajax away.

Ajax coach Martin Yoll once coached Tottenham Hotspur and was familiar with the Premier League, so he arranged a very targeted defensive counterattack tactic in the game, hoping for the personal ability of striker Suarez.

Manchester City played away and did not start well, but they still firmly controlled the situation.

It was not until the 36th minute that Kaka assisted Benzema to score a goal.

Eight minutes later, on a chance to set the ball in the frontcourt, Harvey Martinez used a supplemental shot to win another goal for the team.

After the second half of the game, Manchester City continued to maintain pressure on Ajax. Cristiano Ronaldo scored two goals in the 60th and 71st minutes respectively, helping Manchester City break Ajax four-zero away.

Kaka contributed two assists, Sanchez scored one, and all four offensive players in the frontcourt performed very well.

In another matchup at the same time, Real Madrid defeated AC Milan 2-0 at home with Diego Costa in the 13th minute and Ozil scored two goals in the 14th minute, 2-0.

Brazilian striker Diego Costa made a pass and shot, shining at the Bernabeu stadium.

After three rounds of the Champions League group stage, Manchester City led the group standings with three consecutive victories, Real Madrid won two wins and one loss, AC Milan and Ajax both draw and two losses, and only got one point.

Three days after playing the Champions League, Manchester City welcomed their ninth round of the Premier League at home, strong rival Arsenal.

It is said to be a strong enemy, but in fact it is not very strong.

Before the game, some media found out the old accounts and revealed the embarrassing dilemma of Arsenal's unbeatable victory in the past few years, especially since February 2008, they have never won a victory from Manchester City's city stadium, and were even double-killed by Manchester City last season.

Not only Manchester City, but Arsenal's away performance in strong dialogues has always been very bad. It has not won at home in Chelsea and Manchester United for nearly two years, which is undoubtedly quite embarrassing.

And whether it was last season or this season, Arsenal's performance was not satisfactory.

The team is relatively low, has the title of the Youth Army, and generally lacks experience, which leads to the Gunners losing repeatedly in strong dialogues, especially this season, when facing the semi-finals team, the Gunners' winning rate is only 17%, which is very embarrassing.

And this game undoubtedly once again cited the concerns of the outside media.

Just four minutes into the game, Modric's straight pass was passed behind Arsenal's defense. Sanchez countered offside and formed a single shot. Central defender Julu made a tackle behind him. Referee Claytenberg took out a red card without hesitation.

This almost collapsed Arsenal.

But it also greatly boosted the morale of Manchester City. The Blue Moon, who played at home, began a crazy offensive. In the first half, with the goals of Benzema, Sanchez and Cristiano Ronaldo, they led three to zero.

During the intermission, Wenger made substitutions as soon as possible and strengthened the defense line.

But after the side change in the second half, Manchester City's offensive remained unabated, with Cristiano Ronaldo, David Silva and Kaka scoring goals one after another, rewriting the score to 6-0.

It was not until the 75th minute that Arsenal won a game back by Van Persie.

But soon, Sanchez and Cristiano Ronaldo scored goals one after another, and finally locked the score at 8-1.

The Portuguese superstar scored twice, but the best in the game was Sanchez. He not only scored twice, but also scored a hat-trick to assist. Arsenal's opening red card also came from his counter-offside.

This was an amazing massacre, but what was even more shocking was that the target of Manchester City's massacre was the Premier League giant Arsenal. Not only was the entire Premier League shocked, but even European football and the whole world were shocked.

No one would have thought that Manchester City could slap Arsenal so wildly at home.

Eight to one, this set the biggest score gap in the Premier League this season.

In an interview with the media after the game, Arsenal coach Wenger regretfully admitted that the team's skills were not as good as others, but at the same time, he said that the score could not reflect the strength gap between the two teams. Arsenal's more important thing is that he lost to luck.

"I think the referee's law enforcement is problematic. It is absolutely unreasonable to send off our main central defender in the first four minutes of the game. Of course, I can understand it, after all, this is a city court."

Wenger vaguely pointed the finger at the referee and believed that the referee was suspected of taking care of the home team. The outside world generally expressed doubts, because Julu, who replaced Coscheerney, had a tackle foul from behind, and the nature was relatively bad. Sanchez was not injured or had a broken leg, which was considered lucky.
