Qin Xiong's feat of scoring five goals in a single game shocked England and Europe!
The major media outlets reported on Qin Xiong's five-goal string of goals at the Emirates Stadium.
Praise poured in from all sides.
Qin Xiong maintained a low profile and humility. In an interview with the BBC, he said that the team had only won one game and was still behind in the standings. He only hoped to help the team once again defend the Premier League title and create a dynasty of three consecutive titles for the Red Army that stood shoulder to shoulder with Manchester United and Arsenal!
The other games in the second round of the Premier League ended.
Manchester United continued to take all three points at Old Trafford against Tottenham Hotspur, the Premier League's BIG4 ATM.
The young player Welbeck came out of nowhere, "Smart" Cleverley took over the lead, Ryan Giggs broke the club's appearance record, and Wayne Rooney returned to form after scoring!
3:0
The Red Devils started the new season with two consecutive wins.
Manchester's other team, Blue Moon, defeated Bolton Wanderers at home by 3: 2.
Manchester City, where stars gathered, seemed to have found a way to win. Silva as the attacking midfielder began to balance Manchester City's technical and tactical jigsaw puzzle to its maximum power.
José Mourinho II's Andre Villas-Boas got the first win in the second round of the Premier League and led the team to complete a comeback. In their game against West Bromwich Albion, West Bromwich Albion broke through the city gate first, and then Ramires and Malouda each scored a goal in the first and second half to help the team complete the comeback.
The second round of the Premier League ended.
Manchester United and Manchester City both had six points. Chelsea was close behind with four points, Liverpool had three points, and Arsenal only had one point.
Liverpool's game schedule for the next week was more intensive.
First, they had to play the third round of the Premier League in the middle of the week, followed by a trip to Monaco for the UEFA Super Cup.
In the third round of the Premier League, Liverpool returned to Anfield to play against Bolton Wanderers at home.
Comain sent some of the main players and some of the substitutes for this game.
Raúl, Kuyt, Tiote, Cabaye and the other players were given a chance to play.
In this match, Suárez and Raúl each scored a goal. Cabaye also received an assist from Qin Xiong to score his first goal after joining Liverpool.
Liverpool won 3: 0 at home.
The only thing that made Comain unhappy was that, perhaps because Qin Xiong had shone too brightly in the previous match, the Bolton Wanderers' strategy against Qin Xiong had caused Qin Xiong to retire from the field in the 70th minute of the match due to injury.
Fortunately, it was only a minor injury, but Qin Xiong would miss the UEFA Super Cup.
This also made Qin Xiong and the club decide to directly return to China after a discussion after the game. After recovering from his injury, he directly rushed to the Asian qualifiers for the 2014 World Cup in Brazil.
Liverpool set off for Monaco to participate in the UEFA Super Cup. Qin Xiong was absent from the game, so he went straight back to China to recuperate and meet up with the national team.
On August 28, Liverpool and last season's UEFA Europa League champions, Porto, met at the top of Europe at the Stade Louis II to compete for the honor of being the king of Europe.
Liverpool had a strong team. Even without Qin Xiong and Gerard, the team still played well.
At first glance, Liverpool's lineup still paled in comparison to Porto's.
Suárez and Raúl partnered to attack. Behind them were Cabaye, Kuyt, Mascherano and Lucas to escort and transport the ammunition.
Although the game was a little tight, Liverpool still relied on patience and experience to create a chance to kill Porto in the second half by passing from the side.
Raúl became the team's hero. He scored the opening goal for the team in the penalty area.
Before the end of the game, Suárez broke into the penalty area and knocked the ball back to the top of the penalty area arc to assist Kuyt to score. Liverpool sealed the victory and aimed for the top of Europe!
Just as Liverpool won the UEFA Super Cup, the third round of the English Premier League was burning fiercely in England!
Following Qin Xiong's crazy five-goal scoring in a single game in the last round, Manchester City's center forward, Dzeko, was unwilling to be left out and almost performed a five-goal combo in this round of the game!
In the game between Manchester City and Tottenham Hotspur, Dzeko scored four goals and helped the Blue Moon beat Tottenham Hotspur 5: 1 at White Hart Lane!
Manchester City, who had won three consecutive games, had already announced a strong rise in English football!
Their target was undoubtedly the throne under Liverpool's buttocks!
Chelsea's 3: 1 win over Norwich City at home was not big news. The new Portuguese manager, Andrés Villas-Boas, seemed to have entered a honeymoon period with the Blues.
The most watched game was naturally staged at Old Trafford.
Arsenal, who suffered a crushing 0: 7 defeat to Liverpool in the last round, visited Old Trafford to challenge the Red Devils, Manchester United.
In the Theatre of Dreams, another massacre was staged without warning.
8:2！
Manchester United slaughtered Arsenal in a frenzy at home!
Fatty Lu scored a hat-trick of goals and the new signing, Ashley Young, scored a brace and assisted a hat-trick! It had to be said that Ferguson was probably the manager who was best at using the side midfielder role on the planet. Ashley Young's performance after joining the team was simply worth it!
After Liverpool's biggest defeat in 115 years to Arsenal in the last round, Ferguson almost overturned the massacre record that Comain had just created!
However, in terms of goals scored and the number of times they broke through the opponent's goal, Manchester United did indeed surpass Liverpool.
2: 8!
A shocking score!
It happened between the two strongest teams in the Premier League!
The night of August 28, 2011, would remain in the hearts of the winners and Manchester United for a long time and become their sweet memory.
However, this game was a cruel carving knife that gouged out a wound that would never heal in the hearts of the losers, Arsenal!
Because this was the game in 115 years where they had conceded the most goals in a single game! The last time Arsenal was scored eight goals by their opponents in a single game, the Guangxu Emperor had not stepped down yet!
In the 2011-2012 season, Wenger suffered the worst start to the Premier League in 15 years of coaching Arsenal. He suffered the biggest defeat in the points difference in 15 years of coaching Arsenal! And the most crushing defeat in a single game where they were scored by their opponents!
In the 14 Premier League games after the EFL Cup final last season, Arsenal only scored 13 points!
If the Premier League started on February 28 this year, the Gunners' ranking in the standings would be outside the top 15! In other words, the top powerhouse team that had won eight championships in seven years had now been reduced to a "relegation team"!
For Arsenal supporters all over the world, this was a terrible situation!
But as Wenger said after the last round of the league, "The season has just begun, this is not the end of the world." Losing to Liverpool 0 – 7 at home was not the end of the world!
Losing to Manchester United 2 – 8 in an away game was not the end of the world!
At the end of the game, there was no rage and no conflict. Arsenal's players and Manchester United's players shook hands and hugged "harmoniously".
At the end of the game, there was no abuse and no despair. Van Persie, Walcott and the other Gunners came to the visiting team's stands at Old Trafford and applauded the Arsenal fans who were present. The Gunners' die-hard fans did not leave them and returned the applause, giving the players the most intimate comfort at the most painful moment.
After this crushing defeat, Wenger said in an interview with the British media immediately after the game, "This is indeed a crushing defeat, but for my team, it has benefited a lot."
And Ferguson also said sincerely before the game, "I have my philosophy, Wenger has Wenger's way, we have different styles. But for a long time in the past, he has been obsessed with signing young players, but now this way of building the team seems to have failed, so we have encountered a situation where we have not won the championship for several years in a row. "
As Wenger realized and as Ferguson pointed out, Wenger needed to change!
And two consecutive crushing defeats that shocked the world were the opportunity to wake Wenger up!
If Wenger could learn from this crushing defeat, appropriately change his stubbornness and willfulness, change the team's unbalanced age structure and the proportion of offense and defense, and use the funds obtained from the sale of Fàbregas and Nasri to strengthen the team's defensive weakness before the transfer window closes, and bring in practical and mature star players, Arsenal, which he coached, would still have the ability to make a difference in the Premier League and Champions League!
There were still three days before the summer transfer window closed!
