Chapter 649 Damn, Why Me?
The final whistle sounded at the Emirates Stadium, and the championship belonged to Manchester United.
Mourinho and his players walked towards the Blues fans' stands and applauded them. The people in blue jerseys responded with applause, and there seemed to be no frustration or loss here.
Mourinho's first action after the game was to walk into the venue, point to the stands of visiting team fans, and call for the players to go over and take a curtain call. After that, he frequently made gestures to the Chelsea fans on the sidelines. He raised his right hand to indicate that he wanted to hold his head high, and he shouted "UP! UP!". Mourinho is telling the fans to keep their heads up at this moment, because next season will be a new beginning.
In the bitter post-match press conference, Mourinho still talked eloquently:
"I used to feel that the championship was still possible," Mourinho revealed that he had not given up. "If we win today and then beat Manchester United on Wednesday, the gap will be two points, and anything can happen in the last round. But in the end It didn't happen, but I'm still proud of the team."
"I've always known that one day I might no longer be the champion, but when that happens, I don't want to blame myself or the players or anyone else." A year ago at Stamford Bridge, Mourinho threw the Premier League championship medal into the stands. , a year later, while his taste failed, he still wanted to leave hope for the future.
"I have to say, maybe today I'm more proud than when I became champion. My players are heroes. They have been fighting 'everything' all season and they have done a great job. This season has been amazing."
Four fronts simultaneously attacked to the final stage, and now they have lost the possibility of winning the two most important competitions. Chelsea tried their best and finally fell in front of a great goal. However, Mourinho's pride is not empty words. The moment of losing the championship is worth it. Commemoration will also be motivation for the next year. The Portuguese said that he is ready to prepare for the new season in July. Obviously, his goal has been set to pull Manchester United from the championship.
In the end, Chelsea drew 11 away with Arsenal. Because Manchester United is still 7 points ahead of Chelsea, they won the championship two rounds ahead of schedule; this is Manchester United's second league title since the 2002-03 season. This is their ninth title in the 15-year Premier League history and their 16th title in England's top league. .
Chelsea's away draw with Arsenal meant that the biggest suspense of the Premier League season was finally solved: Manchester United won the 2006-07 season championship two rounds ahead of schedule. Even though it was Sunday, no one on the sports section staff of the British media could sleep. The sports channels of major British stations or the sports stations of professional newspapers were busy adding news.
The title of The Times was "Chelsea surrenders, handing over title to Manchester United." To match the title, the photo next to the news showed Mourinho raising his hands. "Although Chelsea kept Manchester United nervous until the end, they failed to stop Ferguson's men from replacing them as the kings of English football," Zhang said.
The title of the "Daily Telegraph" is concise and concise. The title on the homepage of the website is "Manchester United Champions". When you click on the sports channel, the title becomes a slightly more detailed "Chelsea Draw, Manchester United Champions." The battle report describing this game is very short. , a large part of it reported Ferguson’s post-match conversation. He said that he first watched the video of his grandson’s game before coming to watch the game, and he happened to see the footage of Chelsea’s crazy attack with less and more: “My grandson 's team won the title and we won ours! I watched the last 15 minutes of the game at the Emirates Stadium and it made me very uneasy. My heart was in my throat. Chelsea played well."
The front page headline of "The Sun" showed a large photo of Ferguson with his hands raised and cheering, and there was the league championship trophy next to him. Obviously this was a specially made photo, and it was not the case now to award the trophy. The photo distributed in the detailed battle report shows Ferguson jumping up to hug Queiroz and cheering. This is the shot at the end of Manchester City's first game.
"The Guardian" quoted the British News Agency's chapter, titled "Chelsea Hopes Ended by Gunners", which began: "Ten men Chelsea fought to the end, but their faint hope of winning the title was finally snuffed out at the Emirates Stadium. Come on, Manchester United’s Premier League party is now in full swing.”
Traditional media channels are active, how can online media lag behind? News from several major sports stations has been overwhelming. Sky Sports station said this is Manchester United's first league championship in four years. A large number of fans have gathered at Old Trafford for a formal celebration. The ceremony is about to begin. "Team Talk" stated that "the Blues drew, Manchester United won the championship" and the trophy returned to Old Trafford.
"We are the champions," the "Manchester Evening News" also reported immediately...

That day, in that bar, many people drank directly. Dong Fangzhuo couldn't stop him even if he wanted to. Only Dong Fangzhuo sat there soberly, taking care of his crazy teammates.
Although there are still two league games, there is still an FA Cup and the most important Champions League final.
But as Rooney yelled before he got drunk - fuck him.
Of course, the consequences are also very serious.
The next day, Ferguson got up early, planning to cancel everyone's vacation and notify everyone to report back to Carrington Base.
Ferguson was worried that if he didn't let these guys return to the training ground, they might not even be able to drink for three days and three nights.
Originally, the decisive battle with Chelsea next weekend was the most important game, but now because Chelsea lost the championship early, it has become useless.
Ferguson is not really too worried about his disciple losing form, but he is afraid that he cannot control it!
But what surprised Ferguson was that on Monday morning, Ferguson hurried to the Carrington training base and found that all the Manchester United staff were gathered at the door waiting for him. What surprised the old man even more was that the media, who had always had a hard time with him, Journalists joined them in applauding him.
At the training ground, all the players, including Evra who was on crutches, arrived. In normal times, when Ferguson saw the appearance of these players, a "hairdryer treatment" would be inevitable. Cristiano Ronaldo was so drunk that he couldn't stand straight. After he woke up drunk in the bar yesterday afternoon, he dragged Rooney, Scholes, Ferdinand and other teammates to their favorite bar to continue drinking. The drinks cost a total of They spent 8,500 pounds and did not take a taxi until 4:30 on Monday morning to leave. However, just a few hours later, they showed up at the Carrington training base to express their highest respect to Ferguson.
Dong Fangzhuo stood in the first position and looked at Ferguson with a smile.
Ferguson also looked at him carefully, then took a step towards him, and then put his face close to Dong Fangzhuo's body.
"You didn't drink?"
"Have a drink."
"..."
With a bang, Cristiano Ronaldo next to Dong Fangzhuo suddenly fell down...
"Farke, you're a bad drinker." Ferguson also suddenly laughed and cursed.
"Today, one day, it doesn't matter how crazy you are, the event ends at 0 o'clock tonight."
He raised his right index finger.
"Oh yeah..."
"The club has prepared enough champagne for you, now, let us celebrate! Ryan, don't you say something? This is your 9th league championship."
Ferguson suddenly named Ryan Giggs.
Ryan Giggs didn't drink either, and Dong Fangzhuo wasn't the only one.
While Ferguson was talking, the staff had placed 9 huge bottles of champagne on the training ground.
The 33-year-old Giggs did win his ninth league championship trophy with Manchester United. He thus broke the record of eight championships held by Liverpool legends Neil and Alan Hansen.
Giggs walked up to the huge bottle of champagne and touched his head. He really didn't know what to say. He was just as green as when he was young.
"Perhaps, I want to follow everyone and continue to win the 10th, 11th, and 12th championship? The 9th championship seems to be as exciting as the first one."
Then he took out his mobile phone and took a photo in front of the champagne...
"I'm proud of him. Now it's the goal of Scholes and Gary Neville to catch him. Of course you should also follow this goal. This is really a great goal! But I may not be able to see it in my lifetime."
Ferguson muttered softly, and beside him stood a silent Dong Fangzhuo.
"Why aren't you excited all the time?"
"Dong?"
"I..." Dong Fangzhuo was silent for a moment.
"I feel that I am very satisfied and happy to be able to stand here and celebrate the victory with you. In fact, any of them are going crazy inside."
"Thanks."
Ferguson did not turn his head to look at Dong Fangzhuo, but suddenly said these two words calmly.
"?"
Dong Fangzhuo's head flashed with question marks.
"Thank you for your outstanding contribution to Manchester United and everyone."
"No, boss, I should thank you for giving me the opportunity to serve you and giving me the highest football stage."
"Ha, then let's conquer two more trophies!"
"Well, I will get it back with everyone!"
※※※※
It's been a happy week for Manchester United fans as everyone awaits the team's championship ceremony at Stamford Bridge...
That day, the sun was bright and soft, flowing like golden champagne in the heart, fragrant and full of aftertaste.
The Football Association has given special permission for Manchester United to wear their home red jersey, while Chelsea still wear their blue jersey.
On that day, Ferguson asked most of the main players to wear suits and sit in the stands, but only Dong Fangzhuo wore the captain's armband and led the team out.
He is a unique one. Ferguson believes that Dong Fangzhuo must lead the team as captain and enjoy the glory of the championship.
That day, in the players tunnel, there was no noise of war, no personal hatred, only tranquility and peace. When Dong Fangzhuo led the players out of the locker room tunnel, two rows of dark blue queues were waiting for him.
Dong Fangzhuo knew that Chelsea players were already lining up to welcome the 2006-07 league champion.
Bang bang bang bang...
The applause spread louder and louder, and the Chelsea fans in the stands did not hold back their applause.
Rivals for a season are full of respect for each other at this moment.
And Dong Fangzhuo's hand also shook Terry's hand in a friendly manner...
The game was not played conservatively, especially in attack. Both sides seemed to be testing their offense. After all, this game was a preview of the FA Cup final a week later. Both sides went back and forth, but no goals were scored.
Dong Fangzhuo did not fight Chelsea's defense, but an accident occurred in the 38th minute.
Rossi tried to pick the ball over in the Chelsea penalty area, but the ball bounced into the hands of Ashley Cole and the referee awarded a penalty kick.
"Oh my gosh, were you really upset with Henry when you were at Arsenal?"
"If Dong scores this goal, he will tie Henry's scoring record."
Indeed, when Dong Fangzhuo stood in front of Cech and steadily sent the ball into the goal, his league goal reached his 32nd.
Dong Fangzhuo did not celebrate grandly, he just raised his hands and applauded lightly. He did not want to irritate Chelsea fans at this time. If he wanted to irritate, it would be in the FA Cup final...
However, in the 73rd minute of the second half, Lampard equalized the score with a long shot from outside the penalty area. In the end, both hands shook hands 1:1, leaving the victory to the FA Cup final next weekend...
"team leader,"
After the game, Modly chased Dong Fangzhuo.
"Luka, what's going on?"
Modly scratched his head and seemed a little embarrassed.
"Tell me, are you still shy with me?"
"I have something to ask you. Is it inconvenient for you?"
"Why is it so mysterious? You even dare to blow off the machine in the locker room. What else can't you do?"
Modly scratched his head again, "I was wondering if you could be my best man during the holidays?"
"Nima, why me? Am I ugly?"
Dong Fangzhuo's face turned dark and stern.
"No, no, it's not convenient for those guys. They're all pushing me around. I thought you're such a nice person, so it should be fine."
"During the holidays, I will play in the Asian Cup in July. Is there any conflict? But Luka," Dong Fangzhuo hugged Modly's arm, "When looking for a best man, you have to find someone about the same height as you. I think you should choose Park. Look at Park Chang. I am still honest and about the same height. The key is that he can drink well and he has three lungs..."
