Chen Yingxiong and Manchester City really have a lot of stories to tell, and each story could be a wonderful novel.

Take this recent match, for example. Putting aside Chen Yingxiong's five goals, the feud between him and Richards alone was enough for everyone to talk about for days.

The last time they clashed, Richards maliciously fouled Chen Yingxiong, and after the foul, his attitude was terrible, claiming he did it on purpose. As a result, he was banned for ten games by the English Football Association's referee committee. This was considered a severe punishment, especially since Chen Yingxiong wasn't even injured as a result...

And that wasn't the end of it. The fact that he and Balotelli got into a fight in the locker room was leaked by Balotelli, causing an uproar in the media.

Mancini was furious and severely punished both of them. Richards practically lost all opportunities under Mancini. Balotelli already had inconsistent playing time and was a bit of an idiot, so he didn't care, but Richards was so angry he suffered internal injuries. Then the internal injuries turned into external injuries, and he was injured, missing more than three weeks of training...

Now, towards the end of the season, he had no chance at all.

And it seemed that as long as Mancini was at Manchester City, this former youth academy pride would have no chance to rise.

He was very unhappy that Mancini didn't take him to Liverpool this time.

He hadn't even gone to Liverpool, but the reporters who feared that the world might be too peaceful, still came to his door to ask him for his opinion on the game and on Chen Yingxiong.

Although Richards was mentally twisted, he wasn't stupid. He knew the media was using him as a pawn. If he could play, he could prove his words with actions, so saying something wouldn't matter. But now he couldn't even play, so anything he said would just be a joke. He didn't want that, so he simply refused to comment on the matter.

It seemed as if he had matured.

In reality, he hadn't matured at all. He just didn't have the chance to vent his anger.

Now, seeing Mancini talking about "revenge" all the time, he was even more furious—how the hell could you forget me when you want revenge?! I'm the best candidate for revenge! Ask around, in the entire Manchester City, who has a deeper hatred than me!

Let's ignore Richards' thoughts for now.

The match between Liverpool and Manchester City was getting closer and closer.

The tension between the two sides was also getting thicker. Besides the players firing shots at each other in the media, there were also hostile acts by the fans.

Liverpool police had already made special plans, increasing police force for this game, and also making special arrangements for the opening of the stadium entrances, requiring Liverpool fans and Manchester City fans to have no direct contact throughout the entire process.

They had previously hoped that Liverpool could reserve fewer tickets for the away team fans, but this was met with protests from Manchester City.

And Manchester City fans ridiculed Liverpool for being afraid of them.

Chen Yingxiong also expressed his opposition. Of course, he would definitely not speak for the Manchester City fans. His reason was that the more Manchester City fans came, the greater his motivation would be. The Manchester City fans were simply his support group.

These words were naturally sarcastic, implying that the Manchester City fans' actions against him were actually counterproductive and only made their supported team die even more miserably.

But Manchester City fans would never think about such profound questions as whether their team would not die so miserably if they reconciled with Chen Yingxiong... Anyway, the two sides were already in an irreconcilable deadlock.

Neither side would take the initiative to propose reconciliation. The best situation was to remain silent. As long as one side wanted to stir up trouble, the other side would definitely follow closely, otherwise, they would appear too cowardly and be unilaterally declared the loser—no one could accept such a thing.

The outside world was looking forward to what new tricks the Manchester City fans would come up with to disgust Chen Yingxiong this time.

Last time, they made a "bear oral sex" gesture at their home stadium, which stunned many people, but it was very creative. After the game, the video was uploaded to YouTube, attracting a lot of attention.

What new moves would they have this time?

※※※

The new move of the Manchester City fans was to simply make a paper model of Chen Yingxiong with his butt sticking out, and then open a hole in the position of the anus. Everyone understood what that meant.

Sure enough, not long after the game started, some fans stuffed a penis-shaped paper model into that hole...

Obviously, the Manchester City fans were now using this routine, disgusting Chen Yingxiong from two aspects: sex and personal attacks.

But was this really effective?

They should know that the first time they did this, Chen Yingxiong scored five goals against them. How many goals did they want to be scored against them this time...

Chen Yingxiong hadn't started his counterattack yet. The game had just started, and the two sides were still in a stalemate.

However, Liverpool fans were standing up for Chen Yingxiong.

The "Red Giant Bear" had appeared at Anfield for several games, and their activity area was in the Centenary Stand of the stadium.

The predecessor of this stand was Kemlyn Road, near the stadium. In 1981, Liverpool bought this street, and in 1990, they began to transform it into a new double-decker stand for Liverpool. The renovation project was completed in 1992. Because that year was the centenary of Liverpool Football Club, it was renamed the Centenary Stand.

This stand currently has 11,762 seats.

Now, on the Centenary Stand, a huge roaring bear picture was unfolded, with the words: "Beware of the Bear!"

This was the support that the Red Giant Bear gave to Chen Yingxiong.

To the left of the Centenary Stand was the Anfield Road Stand, which was generally arranged for away fans, so Manchester City fans didn't even need to turn their heads to see this huge "Beware of the Bear".

This picture had appeared at Anfield several times. It lasted from before the start of the game until the eighth or ninth minute of the game, when the picture was completely taken down, and the fans shouted "Hero" three times, as a form of cheering ritual.

Such an eye-catching picture was right opposite the main broadcast position, so although it had only appeared a few times, it was already well-known and considered a very famous picture.

And it was also a deterrent to the away fans.

Telling them—the hero is here, watch out!

Now, when the members of the Red Giant Bear shouted Chen Yingxiong's name to Manchester City, the volume was much louder.

Not only that, they also stretched out their right hands, shaking their five fingers.

This was telling the Manchester City fans that our Chen Yingxiong scored five goals in the last game against you!

As Chen Yingxiong's fans, they couldn't accept the Manchester City fans insulting their idol in this way.

Naturally, they had to defend their idol to the death.

However, fans could only do so much to defend their idol. If they ran to fight with the Manchester City fans, that would be going too far, turning from ordinary fans into football hooligans, which no one would advocate.

Mutual shouting of songs and slogans could only be considered a warm-up. The real way to strike at the other side was to rely on the players themselves.

If the players didn't work hard, no matter how fiercely the fans shouted, it would be useless and would only harm the enthusiasm of his fans.

So at this time, the players must not be cowards!

But Chen Yingxiong never intended to be a coward...

※※※

The game started for ten minutes, and the two sides were still in a stalemate. Manchester City was performing very tenaciously away from home. This was somewhat beyond everyone's expectations, but not beyond Martin O'Neill's expectations.

He knew very well that even away from home, Mancini would probably fight desperately for this championship, so he wasn't surprised by the positive and tenacious performance shown by Manchester City after the start of the game.

What was surprising were the Liverpool fans.

But for Liverpool, this was nothing at all!

He had long anticipated that Manchester City would fight to the death.

If it were him, he wouldn't be willing to give up the league title, no matter who the opponent was, he would do his best to fight.

Although Martin O'Neill admired Manchester City's courage to fight for the league title, it was a pity that Manchester City had chosen the wrong opponent to fight...

If we let you step on us to ascend to the throne, where would Liverpool's face be!

Not to mention whether I agree or not, even if I agree, there is still one person who definitely won't agree!

He turned his gaze to the field, looking at Chen Yingxiong in the front, who was raising his hands to signal his teammates to pass the ball to him.

Manchester City was performing very tenaciously, and Chen Yingxiong thought they were really too tired. To struggle so hard for a league title, wasn't it too much?

I might as well give you a quick end, it would be a good deed...

People, if you don't have the strength, don't hold on to unrealistic fantasies. Do what you should do. Sometimes the more you pursue, the more painful it becomes... Let me bear all the pain in the world alone, and you all live happily!

Chen Yingxiong raised his hands, wanting the ball from his teammates. He wanted to eliminate all undue greed in the world.

The ball was passed to his feet.

Chen Yingxiong was facing away from the direction of the attack, but that didn't stop him. Since learning Dalglish's back-to-goal skills, he now had enough threat whether he was facing the goal or not.

This time was no exception.

After receiving the ball, he quickly turned around, so fast that Kompany, who was defending him, didn't even have time to react before Chen Yingxiong swung his right foot!

Long shot!!

"Hero—"

In the commentator's roar, the football flew towards Manchester City's goal like a meteor.

Joe Hart made a save, and even touched the football, but he didn't ultimately change the direction of the football's flight... The football hit the inside of the post and finally bounced into the goal...

"goooooooooooooooooooooooooAL!!!"

The commentator's roar was like a thunderbolt across the sky above Anfield.

Manchester City's championship dream was like a fragile mirror, shattered by Chen Yingxiong's thunderous kick!
