Chapter 2043: Unfortunately there is no if!

In fact, for Ancelotti, he knows who his first important opponent in the new season will be.

It's Liverpool!

The English Football Association has preferential treatment for wealthy clubs, which can be easily reflected in the schedule.

Manchester United did not encounter their first top team until the 8th round, and that was their arch-rival Liverpool.

Considering that the players have to play on national team match days...this is undoubtedly the biggest challenge for Manchester United.

After all, there is one bad thing about the top teams: even substitute players are like pillars in the national team.

Moreover, the development of national teams at all levels is now very complete.

Even if you don't make the first team, there will be teams like U23, U21, U18...

Anyway, there are really a lot of competitions.

Ye Chen, who performed well in the first half, did not go off the court to rest, but continued to fight.

Ronaldo is also working hard for his league goals.

After Messi also came to the Premier League, he felt that he needed to work harder.

In addition to assists, goals are also important.

After all, shooting is his advantage.

With Ye Chen and Ronaldo both not leaving the field, many Crystal Palace fans felt that something was wrong.

Isn't it normal that you should punch out when you get off work?

Or is it that Ye Chen has already scored four goals, but it’s still not enough?

Why do we have to pursue the goal of having five sons and one daughter?

The same goes for Ronaldo... An assist is enough, why does he have to score a goal?

But soon they told all the fans the answer with practical actions.

In the second half, Crystal Palace made the first substitution, Li Qinglong was replaced by Pang Qiong.

Of course, this is not an Asian player, or even a Chinese player, but an English player with Jamaican ancestry.

His name is not "PangQiong" in Chinese pinyin, but "Puncheon".

Crystal Palace did not dare to attack aggressively after conceding five goals.

On the other hand, Manchester United does not have much psychological pressure.

56 minutes 20 seconds.

Modric in the midfield had just received the pass from the backcourt and kicked the ball to the left side of the frontcourt.

Ye Chen was clearly behind Sako, but he quickly caught up with Sako and overtook him in an instant.

Of course, because both players made hand movements, the referee did not blow the whistle.

And Ye Chen didn't even fall.

He just carried Sarko and sent the ball to the middle...

The ball passed between the retreating Delaney and Hennessey.

At this time, Ronaldo on the right side also squeezed in front of the left-back Van Aanholt and shot first.

"Oh!"

The football flew easily to the near post.

C Ronaldo successfully scored the first goal of the game.

This ball looks simple, but it is actually not difficult.

The only difficulty is that when the pass is not particularly good, Ye Chen needs to rely on his own speed and strength to complete an all-round crushing of the opponent's defender.

As for the last pass, it was even more wonderful!

Of course, Ronaldo's desire for scoring goals was also fully demonstrated at this moment.

He is the kind of person who won't let go of any opportunity.

Ye Chen remembered that when he watched the 2024 European Cup in Germany, Ronaldo in front did run a lot, and often ran ahead of time.

After all, I'm old and I've lost my explosive power and speed, so I can only make up for it through hard work.

But the problem is that the Portuguese attacking group really didn't pass the ball to him...

So after sprinting over and over again, all you get in return is a consumption of your already limited physical energy.

But no matter what, the ball went in!

Ye Chen's cross pass from the bottom line was an assist, and Ronaldo also scored a goal.

The fans at the scene applauded the cooperation between the two.

At this time, Ancelotti also started to make substitutions.

One substitution, two for Rashford and De Bruyne.

Grealish and Rice were replaced.

If you want a horse to run, you have to let it eat more grass.

Grealish and Rice are both talented players, and they should play more games at this time.

The appearance of these two players did add vitality to Manchester United's frontcourt.

But facing Crystal Palace's tight defense, it was still difficult for Manchester United to score...

Hodgson made two substitutions.

Five-star General MacArthur came on the field, replacing former Foxes winger Schlupp.

Sakho on the striker was also replaced by Riedewald.

This makes Crystal Palace's intentions even more obvious...

Hold on to the score of 6-0.

Many Crystal Palace fans felt heartbroken when they saw this scene.

But what can they do?

No matter what field it is, falling behind will lead to being beaten.

Fortunately, the scores of both sides remained unchanged until the end of the game.

Manchester United beat Crystal Palace 6-0 at home.

Just one more goal than Manchester City's 5-0...

As the game ended, everyone's attention instantly shifted to Chelsea's home game against Manchester City.

Ye Chen also went home as soon as possible and watched the game with Lina in his arms.

He also wants to see how strong Manchester City is now.

Of course, he knows Chelsea.

It will be difficult for Manchester United to beat Chelsea if they don't try their best.

As soon as the game started, Chelsea's Conte increased the intensity of Manchester City's attack.

In fact, Chelsea has always been Messi's nemesis, and previously had an embarrassing record of 7 games without scoring any goals.

This time when they met Chelsea, they once again let Messi know what "iron defense" means!

Kante in the middle is like a dog-skin plaster wrapped around Messi.

As for Kanter, he is a "defensive artist" recognized by Ye Chen.

Messi is miserable...

But Chelsea's forward line is really not very strong.

Lukaku seemed to be possessed by Nunez, and his two consecutive long shots missed the target.

Conte couldn't stand it anymore and sent Morata on in the 45th minute.

But what makes Conte upset is that Morata is worse than Oscar...

If the defense of Van Dijk, Hummels and Christensen was not solid enough.

The ball was lost a long time ago!

But it wasn't just Lukaku who performed poorly for Chelsea today.

Hazard also suffered from the interference of Walker in Manchester City...

Looking at Walker, Ye Chen's saliva was flowing.

This is a 34-year-old player who can still start in the European Cup final. With his speed, even Mbappe has no advantage over him. He is also strong and has good defensive skills.

Of course, the same goes for Christensen. Ye Chen even wanted to invite him before, but he refused.

The two sides fought fiercely until the 67th minute.

Sterling dribbled the ball on the left side and reached the baseline, where he could not continue and could only pass it to Jesus who came forward to receive the ball.

Jesus made a triangle pass to the top of the penalty area.

Wang Chu, who was following up, suddenly rushed out and shot a cold arrow...

Finally we broke through the gate guarded by Oblak!

Manchester City leads Chelsea 1-0 away from home.

Conte did not give up despite falling behind, and replaced Pedro and Batshuayi in succession in an attempt to break the deadlock.

But it's all thunder and little rain...

Guardiola replaced Sane and David Silva with B Silva and Gundogan to stabilize the defense in the midfield and backcourt.

After the final 90 minutes, Chelsea, who had more chances, lost the game.

Wang Chu was selected as the best player of the game, while Messi's score was only 6.7!

Kanter, who played against him, scored as high as 7.5 in the losing situation.

At this moment, countless Chelsea fans miss Ye Chen especially.

The most common phrase Chelsea fans say now is: If this Chelsea team had one more Ye Chen, it would definitely be a Champions League champion lineup!

It's a pity that there is no what if...
