Chapter 584: Chapter 583: Everything outside Manchester is yours, inside Manchester is mine
The main referee ultimately did not piles on to Cristiano Ronaldo with further punishment.
A red card and a defeat were already enough to sadden Cristiano Ronaldo.
In the end, the score didn’t change anymore.
Six to four!
The Maine Road defense was successful!
Manchester City triumphed over Manchester United!
The Manchester United fans were somewhat disheartened, but only just.
Because they were still at the top of the Premier League standings.
And this match showed them the future of Manchester United.
Cristiano Ronaldo!
At just seventeen, he was already so strong, so ambitious, so eager for victory!
In his prime, how many championships could he bring to the team?
How many Champions Leagues?
Deng Kai: As for the Champions League, five... but four would be for Real Madrid.
Manchester United: ...
...
In the post-match interviews, Deng Kai was undoubtedly the center of attention.
Reporter: "Deng Kai, how does it feel to achieve the feat of scoring, assisting, and getting a hat-trick in the same match?"
Deng Kai: "It feels incredible, but it was also very tough. Manchester United is very strong, and luck played a big part in our victory."
"Of course, I have to praise my teammates as well. They all performed extremely well today, each player showed a very high standard."
"Especially Adriano, his restraint against Ferdinand was the most important reason for our high offensive efficiency today!"
"And Ribery, his breakthroughs are just as unstoppable as Cristiano Ronaldo’s, making people feel helpless."
Reporter: "Since you brought up Cristiano Ronaldo, what do you think about his red card foul on you at the end?"
Deng Kai: "Cristiano Ronaldo’s decision was not wrong, he did everything he should and could do for the team. Including that tackle, it was a good tackle."
"Though it was a foul, it was the only possible action at that time to stop me. If I were in his position, I would have done the same."
"And Cristiano Ronaldo pulled out, he even held me to avoid me getting injured after the fall. I vaguely felt my elbow might have hit him, he probably has quite a few bruises, I hope he isn’t injured because of it."
"He thought of everything, kind yet fierce! He is one of the best teammates and opponents I have ever encountered!"
Deng Kai gave Cristiano Ronaldo high praise.
This was to prevent people from hyping up Cristiano Ronaldo’s last foul of the game.
After all, there were too many English media outlets seeking to prove that Cristiano Ronaldo was no good.
They had never seen such a brilliant foreign newcomer.
They wouldn’t allow a young English football star of such caliber, otherwise, what would become of the so-called stars of Great Britain they hyped up?
You know the saying, ’to throw away the inferior goods when faced with the superior ones’!
The media also tried to find Cristiano Ronaldo.
But Cristiano Ronaldo didn’t give them the opportunity.
If he was going to do an interview, he would do it after winning a match, and he wasn’t in the mood after a loss.
Nevertheless, the image of Deng Kai making Cristiano Ronaldo laugh spread through the European football world.
In just one night, the whole world saw Cristiano Ronaldo’s tears and laughter.
The GIF was even saved by countless people.
In the future, it would become a photo cherished by both fans and detractors of Cristiano Ronaldo.
One word: epic!
Additionally, that same night, "Understanding Football" worked overtime to conduct an exclusive interview with Deng Kai.
Because the interview and editing went on too late, Jiang Yunzhu even had to stay the night in the guest room of Deng Kai’s home.
This interview instantly soared to the top of the European football hot search list.
Jiang Yunzhu, "You defeated Manchester United, which is quite impressive. There must have been some motivation, right?"
Deng Kai, "I don’t want the Manchester City fans to feel inferior. They live side by side with United fans, and many of them are even family."
"Most of the time, the relationship between City and United fans is actually quite good."
"But because of this, City fans feel even less confident in front of United fans, because they know that City is no match for United."
Jiang Yunzhu, "What do you think?"
Deng Kai, "The current Manchester City is of course not as good as Manchester United, not by any measure."
"But that is precisely why we had to win this match."
Jiang Yunzhu, "Fighting for the fans! You are remarkable!"
Deng Kai shook his head, "No, it’s my teammates who are remarkable, as well as the coaching staff, and the club’s executives. Of course, the most remarkable are the Manchester City fans!"
Jiang Yunzhu, "We all know you have a good relationship with Cristiano Ronaldo, including Ferguson, Beckham, Scholes, Keane, and so on... Do you have anything to say to them?"
Deng Kai, looking at the camera, "Manchester is one family, whether it’s our fans or each other, we have many connections."
"I don’t want to see the fans of both clubs at each other’s throats."
"I know hatred can bring more attention, attendance, and ratings."
"But I believe that stories of unity among brothers can too."
"I hope that on weekends, if they have time after watching a match, the United fans can also come over to Maine Road to watch a Manchester City game."
"You could even come wearing a United jersey. We’d be happy to bring an extra victory to the residents of Manchester over the weekend."
"Of course... If you could wear a Manchester City jersey over your United shirt, we would be even happier."
"In the same way, I believe many City fans will also go to support United in their matches, aside from our own."
"After all, it’s the same Manchester."
Jiang Yunzhu covered her mouth and snickered, "Isn’t that a bit too harmonious? There’s no spice to it, is there?"
Deng Kai also laughed, "Can’t help it, I have to consider my boss, Mansour. If the team sells more tickets and jerseys, maybe he’ll give me a raise."
Harmony brings wealth, after all.
Jiang Yunzhu, "Anything else you’d like to say?"
Deng Kai, "Yes, I’ll address Ronaldo since my good brother was in tears this time, I need to comfort him."
"Hey, Ronaldo, when facing other Premier League opponents, go hard, crush them! Especially those that have defeated us, Manchester City!"
"You need to regain our honor, you hear? Let them witness the might of Manchester’s duopoly!"
"Remember, the rest of the Premier League is yours for the taking this season!"
"I am looking forward to you becoming the King of the Premier League!"
Jiang Yunzhu nodded, "Ronaldo will surely be happy with this blessing. Right now, the thing United wants most is to defeat Arsenal and take back the title of Premier League King!"
"Do you have anything else to say to Manchester City fans?"
Deng Kai, "Of course! Our Manchester City fans, don’t worry. Keep a level head, our main task this season is to gel as a team."
"If any discordant United fans provoke you, just tell them, the rest of the world may be yours, but Manchester is ours!"
"We are the Kings of Manchester!"
Ronaldo: ???
Manchester United: ???
United Fans: ???
City Fans: Hahaha! I like it!
