Chapter 95: Flani's Future

After the start of the new season, the "Red Devils" showed an invincible attitude, starting from defeating Manchester City 4-0 to win the Community Shield Cup, and won nine consecutive victories in various competitions. Although it is not as amazing as the start of last season, this is also a good start.

This momentum that seems to be a ferocious beast to devour everything makes the English media sigh while cheering: "Manchester United's strength is too amazing, and Shaq's efficiency is too perverted, but this dominant pattern is not what we want to see. We want to see a league with a blooming flower, and we want to see a more competitive league."

I don’t even know when there was an “alternative” remark that began to appear on various media and personal Twitter…

"Shak should consider transferring to play abroad. A great-than-desperate existence like him staying in China for a long time is unfair to other teams, and it will also prevent other teams from improving their level. If Shak leaves, I believe our Super League will have the possibility of further improvement."

"The FA has begun to consider whether Shaq's existence is conducive to the development of English football. The result is that if Shaq continues to play in England, his presence will suppress the enthusiasm and development of other potential players to play football, which may eventually lead to a decline in the overall level of English football."

"Manchester United should consider selling Shaq. Not to mention that Shaq should be the highest-value period now, but Shaq's existence always disrupts the league's balance so much, the FA will definitely put some restrictions on Manchester United."

No one knows whether the FA will impose any restrictions on Manchester United, but UEFA has obviously started to think about this issue and they have taken action.

The Champions League is a game that represents the highest level of European football, and it is also a wonderful cake with endless wealth. UEFA has been trying to make this cake bigger, more delicious, and more...making money for decades!

In the past, the Champions League was really a combination of the strengths of Baijia. Thirty-two teams with different styles gathered together to play football, which was quite a bit like a World Cup. Moreover, even in countries with relatively low football levels, there were teams that could participate, which could mobilize the enthusiasm of European fans to the maximum extent. Many wealthy teams also took turns to share the cake.

But the current situation is that Shaq wins the world. Manchester United last season and Leeds United last season were the same. Just as the beginning of this season, the "Red Devils" showed a more fierce momentum than last season. The possibility of defending the Champions League this season is really great. If this continues, will other giant teams still play nowhere?!

On September 29, Manchester United visited the Verodrome Stadium in Marseille, France, and played the second round of the Champions League H group stage away with Marseille. In this game, Manchester United encountered the first dangerous situation this season.

Everything was normal at the beginning of the game. Shaq was pushed to the ground by Marseille Gabonese central defender Bruno Manga at the Marseille team. The Gabonese central defender's foul was quite bad, and he directly pushed Shaq down with both hands behind him.

Normally, Bruno Manga is going to get a yellow card. When the opponent jumps up and fights for the top, it is easy to hurt the opponent. However, Spanish referee Fernando Vitnis has no deck and just awards a free kick in the frontcourt to Manchester United.

Fortunately, Shaq's body is monster-level. After falling down hard, he was lucky to have some carefree tidy up his socks. Then he stood up like nothing happened. However, the Manchester United players appealed to the referee under the leadership of "Little Fatty". However, the Spanish referee was unmoved, but instead smiled and made a push-down move, signaling the Manchester United players to calm down.

Calm down...you sister!

After pulling Mata, Cleville, Franny and others, Rooney was pulled away angrily.

However, Shaq's performance was very strong. This goal was facing the Marseille goal. After the referee's whistle sounded, he assisted the ball for seven or eight steps, and then "bang" the ball out with his right foot!

This free kick was 32 meters away from the Marseille goal. Shaq's powerful kick directly set the ball in the air and in an instant he arrived in front of the Marseille goal.

Marseille French goalkeeper Steve Mandanda made a fish jump to the left to save, but the black player widened his eyes in surprise in the air. He found that his sight was following the ball, but his body's reaction speed was completely unable to keep up with the ball speed. His body was still in the air, and the ball flew over one meter away from his left hand with a "scream"!

Even... Steve Mandanda seemed to hear the whistling through the air!

"goal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

After scoring the goal, Shaq clenched his fists and ran to Rooney. "Little Fatty" also roared at Shaq like a bull. They used this best way to vent their dissatisfaction.

1:0, Manchester United took the lead away game!

At this time, Manchester United had not realized that the game was a bit abnormal. Until the next ten minutes, Marseille used consecutive fouls to block Manchester United's offensive, successfully provoking changes in the mood of Manchester United players, and they became irritable.

In the 23rd minute, this irritability finally brought serious consequences. Marseille left winger Frank Tabanov scored a wide cross and sent the ball to Manchester United's small penalty area. Subotic, who replaced Papadopolos as the right center back in this game, was still a little helpless in the interception of the ground cross. He failed to block the ball, but Franny, who retreated behind him, blocked the ball.

But Flani, who was not prepared enough, touched the ball at a little above his right ankle, and the ball was kicked at the bottom left corner of the Manchester United goal with a "snap".

De Gea's vision had already been on the white figure in the middle, and he never expected that his own people would kick the ball towards his own goal. When he realized it, everything was too late... own goal!

“but,but,but,but,bu——————————t!”

In the Verodrome Stadium, the Frenchman's mouths opened fire like a machine gun, and the shouts of extremely fast voices made the entire stadium boil...

Franni's face was dull, and he didn't expect that he was just a lack of preparation, which caused such serious consequences. Originally, it was difficult for them to play in this game. Their team's attacks were blocked by Marseille with fouls. Moreover, the Spanish referee's standard for hand-off was obviously controversial. Except for right-back Rod Vanny, who received a yellow card, no one else was punished. Brazil's left-back Fabio, who walked out of Manchester United, even used four times to pull people, and three times made Mata feel embarrassed and didn't even get a card.

Originally, Manchester United had an advantage in ball, but now... nothing is gone!

Off the court, Simon Grayson also frowned tightly. As a head coach who has won more than ten championship trophys, his experience is rich enough. He can see the problems of this game very clearly, and he can understand the reasons behind it, but he did not expect that before his opponent found a chance, his player made a mistake first. Flani's own goal not only allowed the opponent to equalize the score, but also put Manchester United on the edge of the loss. As long as Marseille scores another goal in the next game, Manchester United will be in danger.

Franny... You have let my trust in you down!

Originally, Simon Grayson considered using Krissetig's job in this game, but in the end he chose Franny. He felt that Franny's defensive ability was still better than Krissetig, at least he could help the team in terms of momentum. How could he think... Franny's mission has not been completed yet, but he sent the own goal!

Sighing in his heart, Simon Grayson still did not replace Franny immediately. He hoped that the Belgian midfielder could adjust it by himself, which would be a rare test of Franny's role in a tough battle.

But the next twenty minutes became twenty minutes that made Simon Grayson extremely angry and regretful!

In the 29th minute, Franny failed to watch Marseille's single striker Rocky Remy, and he broke through when he received the ball, and then sent a diagonal ball to the offside front midfielder Matiu. Matiu fell to the ground and shot and sent the ball into Manchester United goal.

"Offside! Offside!"

Manchester United defenders raised their hands one after another, but the Spanish referee pointed his hand at the center circle... The goal was valid!

"Shit!"

Simon Grayson kicked the Aquarius in front of him so angry that he whispered, turned around and went to his seat. This ball...Franny must bear the main responsibility. Even if the offside ball was not scored or was not judged as a goal, it is an indisputable fact that the Belgian midfielder missed someone while defending.

Manchester United has become very cowardly from leading 1:0 to falling behind 1:2. The team's overall condition is no longer good, and they can't stand Marseille on the scene.

In the 41st minute, Marseille's right winger Jimmy Briander pushed into Manchester United's goal in the top 500 second half of the match against Martiou, but the French winger pushed his hands while fighting for the header, and another objectionable goal appeared.

But no matter what, Manchester United is already behind 1:3 at this time!

At the end of the first half, the scores on the field did not change anymore. The Marseille team, who played at home, ended the first half with a 3-1 lead of two goals.

As soon as the whistle sounded, Simon Grayson walked towards the player channel with a gloomy face. He was already full of anger and was ready to vent his roster. Now he had to adjust his team's lineup. Franny's performance was not enough. Even Di Maria on the left could not find her form at all. Under the several fouls of his opponent Rod Tabanov, he became timid.

joke!

What a fucking joke!

The "Red Devils" who swept across Europe were actually beaten to this bear by the Marseille team here!?
Chapter completed!
