Manchester City was once again lā by Sunderland

Manchester United won Blackburn, and the gap between the two teams continued to widen. Manchester City showed signs of collapse in the late season!

Manchester United now leads Manchester City with five points, with seven rounds left in the league, and Manchester City faces a huge crisis on the road to championship.

At this time, Manchester City fans' mood of missing Xu Qi reached a new level. You should know that before Xu Qi was injured, Manchester City was still three-pointer ahead of Manchester United, but now they are five points behind, with an eight-point gap between one positive and one negative.

Where did these eight points go?

All lost and lost.

Why don’t fans imagine if Xu Qi was not injured?

Of course, this period was not just Xu Qi's long-term truce. David Silva and Yaya Toure both were absent for a period of time, which also caused the Manchester City team to be discontinued and began to lose points in a row.

All of this started from the Christmas game. It has to be said that Manchester United is the team that can adapt to the high-intensity events during the Christmas game.

After just one round, Manchester City once again encountered Gunners Arsenal in the 32nd round of the league. Manchester City has defeated Arsenal twice this season, but in this most important matchup, Arsenal did not let the water help Manchester City chase their common enemy Manchester United.

In the end, Arsenal defeated Manchester City one-to-zero and gave it to Manchester City again, but it was defeated in three rounds!

Manchester United has expanded its lead to eight points after defeating Queens Park Rangers!

Everything has been subverted. At this moment, everyone even thinks that the dynasty of Manchester United is over and the era of Manchester City has arrived.

But in a blink of an eye, Manchester United is about to dominate the Premier League again.

This situation made Manchester City, who had invested heavily in the transfer market last summer, feel extremely desperate.

Indeed, all this is too cruel.

With six rounds left in the league, Manchester City is eight points behind Manchester United. Without thinking, Manchester City has almost no chance.

Even the fans are not looking forward to Xu Qi returning as soon as possible. They think Xu Qi should recover from his injuries. This season is like this and hope is slim.

However, in the desperate situation, a glimmer of hope will always be found.

In the 33rd round of the Premier League, Manchester City recovered its form and won West Bromvic four-zero at home, ending the three rounds of unwinding.

Manchester United lost to Wigan Athletics by 0-1.

After one round, the points gap between the two teams narrowed to five points again.

Manchester City sees hope again, but there are still five games left. It is still very difficult for Manchester City to regain the league's top spot, and it is difficult for Manchester United to make mistakes again.

They have to wait for Manchester United to make another mistake.

In the 34th round, Manchester United defeated Aston Villa four-0, and Manchester City swept Norwich six-one.

With four rounds left, the two teams are still five points apart.

Before the 35th round of the league, Xu Qi announced that he would return to the team after returning from injury.

However, to be on the safe side, Mancini did not let Xu Qi play. Manchester City defeated Wolves 2-0 away in this game and achieved three consecutive victories.

Manchester United made another mistake, they played a four-to-four draw with Everton, as if the whole Premier League was helping Manchester City block Manchester United.

Manchester City has scored the gap to only three points, and now, Manchester City still has a chance to have a home Manchester derby.

Thirty-six rounds will be the second Manchester derby in the Premier League this season. Once Manchester City defeats Manchester United, the situation of winning the Premier League this season will completely change. Manchester City will tie points and regain the top of the league with the advantage of goal difference.

The most critical battle to compete for the championship is the International Labor Day on May 1st, Manchester derby!

It is also a battle for Xu Qi to make a comeback!

In this battle, Manchester City only allows victory but not defeat.

Now they once again took the initiative to compete for the championship in their own hands, and Xu Qi finally announced his return.

It seems that Manchester City is not far from creating a miracle.

At the same time, Xu Qi has been away from the football field for four months. After four months, Xu Qi finally returned.

A battle that involves winning the league is about to begin, and its importance is self-evident.

Therefore, many fans and media also came to the Etihad Stadium early to try to find some more useful news.

"I didn't expect that my first game of comeback was the Manchester derby. This game must be won! If you win, the championship will basically be won. If you lose, the championship will definitely fly away." Xu Qi secretly analyzed that in fact, everyone saw the situation very clearly. This game is a final that concerns the title!

Manchester City has the advantage of home, while Manchester United only needs one draw to get the desired result.

Before the game, Ferguson praised Manchester City in a rare way, saying that Manchester City's performance this season is already good enough, but Manchester United will not give up the championship.

Mancini said he believed his team would create miracles and create history. The championship must belong to Manchester, but it would not be Manchester United.

Xu Qi naturally received widespread attention from the media. After so long away from the stadium, Xu Qi's first comeback match actually happened to be such an important game.

The media are very concerned about Xu Qi's situation. How Xu Qi's situation determines the result of this game to a large extent, and they are also concerned about whether Xu Qi really makes a comeback or just a psychological battle that brings psychological pressure to Manchester United.

Xu Qi did not give a positive answer to this point. It would be better for the opponent to guess more before the game.

Compared to this problem, Ferguson has been plagued for almost a week.

Logically speaking, even if Xu Qi returns, he will recover from his long illness and may be difficult to ensure a good condition.

However, Xu Qi has always been more experienced as he performs in the competition, and it is difficult to infer it with common sense, so this can be regarded as a major suspense before this game.

Paparazzi from major media have tried every means to know Xu Qi's situation, and they are also trying every means to film Manchester City's pre-match training situation.

However, Manchester City's confidentiality work is also very good, and it does not give the media reporters the opportunity to listen to gossip. Moreover, when the media was filming publicly, Xu Qi was doing his own restorative training alone on the sidelines and did not participate in joint training with the team.

This has also cast more questions from many media about Xu Qi's return from injury.

However, no matter whether the matter is true or not, the fans at the scene have believed it.

Even, they had prepared a huge banner with the words "Welcome to you, our hero!"

The King is about to return, and the most exciting battle in the Premier League this season is about to come.
Chapter completed!
