1144 The Red Devils and the Blue Army send the Red Army to the top!

After the first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals, since the next round is only one week away from this round, Liverpool and other teams participating in the Champions League can only act as a stamina in the local leagues sandwiched in the middle.

Liverpool is better, at least it has a huge lead in the league.

Manchester United faced a battle with Chelsea after finishing the first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals with Bayern Munich!

Ferguson is a stubborn old man. Even if he is behind and gives Liverpool 9 points, he still is stubborn and unyielding. The media, fans, and even Manchester United players may be desperate, but he still does not admit defeat!

It has been declared in front of the media that Manchester United still has a chance!

Ferguson rarely criticizes the FA's schedule, perhaps because of the old man, and believes that it is meaningless to fight against the FA in such matters.

Even though Manchester United is mixed with what Ferguson believes to be a championship battle in the Champions League, and is fighting with Chelsea at Old Trafford, Ferguson still hopes that Manchester United can do their job well and defeat the Blues with strength.

But just this Tuesday, Fleet Street announced the candidate for the law enforcement referee for the battle between Manchester United and Chelsea, which caused an uproar.

Mike Dean, the controversial man in black, was arranged to enforce the key battles in law enforcement.

Just last week's Burnley's match against Blackburn, Dean "created" a penalty kick.

Olson, a Blackburn player who admitted that he won a penalty by fake falls after the game, said: "The reason I did this is because Dean likes to award penalty kicks (16 penalty kicks were awarded in 24 games this season), but I think he is likely to make another mistake in Manchester United and Chelsea games, and may not dare to award penalty kicks because of overcorrection."

Sure enough, Olson got to the point!

Just as Manchester United and Chelsea were in the 26th minute, when Park Ji-sung dribbled the ball from the right rib into the penalty area, just after entering the penalty area, Jirkov stretched out his leg and put down "Kimchi Brother", but the referee Dean refused to award a penalty.

The Guardian asked about this live broadcast: "If Dean thinks this is not a penalty kick, then why don't he fake a yellow card for Park Ji-sung? It's too unreasonable to give away a yellow card and not a penalty kick."

Just as the controversy has not yet subsided, Manchester United created problems for Dean on the other end.

While Anelka was taking the ball in the penalty area, Gary Neville knocked down the French striker from the side. Without the Chelsea players protested, Dean was happy to settle the matter and miss the penalty again.

Burnley coach Rolls predicted before the game: "The club has listed this referee as the worst penalty. Maybe Mike Dean will feel that he can't award any penalty anymore. He may be shrunk and dare not blow the penalty."

Therefore, when Lampard grabbed the ball in the penalty area before the end of the first half, Dean would not have been able to step over the line.

In the second half, Dean still didn't have many convincing punishments.

In one of the ball grabs, Ferdinand had already snatched the Frenchman from Anelka between his legs. Although Anelka got up and took the ball again, he was pushed and shoved by Ferdinand behind him, Dean turned a blind eye and allowed Ferdinand to "brute" him.

However, Manchester United eventually became the loser.

In the 79th minute of the game, Kalu dribbled the ball in the middle and gave the ball behind him. At this time, Drogba was obviously in an offside position, but the linebacker pressed the side flag tightly underneath, and Dean did not run to the position at all.

Seeing that the offside was "a mile" away, Warcraft sent the football to Manchester United ball net.

After that, Macheda's goal was also suspected of handball in the British media, but Manchester United eventually lost in any case.

Although the penalty kick and Anelka were tied once, the British media pointed out that this situation cannot be viewed in this way, because there is a question of order. If Park Ji-sung's penalty kick is punished and Manchester United tied the score, the direction of the game will be completely different.

But unfortunately, Dean made deviant punishments again and again.

Lampard's cousin Redknapp said: "As a player, if you don't run enough on the court, you will lose every opportunity to get the ball, but isn't the same for a referee? Dean always runs very little during the game, but he always makes a series of unconvincing punishments."

Some Red Devils fans started to scold: an idiot referee and a mentally retarded lineman messed up the game.

But there is no doubt that Drogban's most controversial goal penalty may have screwed up Manchester United's unrealistic dream of four consecutive championships. Because under the premise of 38 rounds of league matches in Premier League history, there has never been a team that lost more than seven games to win the championship.

After the game, Ferguson was furious about the assistant referee's penalty, believing that this was an obvious misjudgment.

"What I can't understand is that the assistant referee is standing in front of the ball, and no one is disturbing him, but he made a misjudgment." Ferguson said bluntly.

"We really need high-quality referees in such an important game, but today's situation is completely opposite. The referee's performance is really bad. It's too bad." Ferguson was furious.

The old Lord’s anger is conceivable. He doesn’t care about fighting with Chelsea at this time point. The more difficult the old Lord, who has experienced the storm, is, the more straight he stands up to face the difficulties!

But the referee ruined the game. Manchester United not only lost the game at Old Trafford, but also gradually drifted away from what Ferguson called "winning for the championship"!

Because Chelsea surpassed Manchester United in the standings, leading Manchester United by 1 point and becoming the second place in the league now!

Finally, when talking about the championship situation, Ferguson was really disappointed and lacked confidence.

"There are five rounds of league games, and we are 9 points behind Liverpool. Perhaps after tomorrow, the gap will be widened to 10 or 12 points, even if it is only 9 points. Considering that we are still 1 point behind Chelsea, Manchester United is completely at a disadvantage in the championship! However, Manchester United will still not give up!"

Ferguson lacked confidence because he realized the reality, but his tone was still very tough.

Red Devils Manchester United just won’t give up!

As long as there is a possibility of winning the championship in theory, Manchester United will never give up. This is the idea that Ferguson, as the godfather, has instilled into Manchester United's ideas from the first day of coaching Manchester United, and it is also the Red Devils spirit that Manchester United stands tall under his command!

However, Fleet Street is more realistic, and bb's football commentator released the "report of the closing of the Premier League this season" after the game.

"Chelsea's victory at Old Trafford directly sent Liverpool to the Premier League throne! Will Liverpool lose 4 games in 6 league rounds? Impossible! Can Manchester United and Chelsea win all 5 league games left? Not necessarily!

Who is the champion?
