Green Field Eunuch

Chapter 276 The Defection at Old Trafford
So far in the match, Shan Yongzhuo has completely won over Manchester United fans with 5 goals.

When the first half ended, all the fans in the stadium stood up and applauded, chanting Shan Yongzhuo's name.

Not only Manchester City fans, but also the vast majority of Manchester United fans joined in.

Halftime.

5 goals.

Shan Yongzhuo's performance was impeccable. Even at Old Trafford, the most discerning Manchester United fans could not find fault with his performance.

Even though he was a player from their arch-rivals, and even though Shan Yongzhuo had mocked Manchester United last season, Manchester United fans didn't care at this moment and gave him sincere applause and blessings.

Football knows no borders.

Shan Yongzhuo truly demonstrated this through his performance.

Winning or losing is very important.

Being exciting is more important.

In the eyes of Manchester United fans, Shan Yongzhuo is not in the same league as other players. It's like if Messi went to China to play for a Chinese team, those fans would definitely abandon their support for their original team and support Messi instead.

Manchester United fans today share a similar view; despite their opponent being their noisy neighbor Manchester City, it doesn't affect their support for Shan Yongzhuo at all.

This is especially true for female fans. Many female fans find Shan Yongzhuo's figure incredibly attractive and wish they could join Shan Yongzhuo's women's cheerleading team immediately.

In their view, Manchester United had no hope of winning the game anyway, and supporting Shan Yongzhuo made them feel no guilt.

For a moment, the entire Old Trafford stadium was filled with the cheers of Shan Yongzhuo, especially the female fans, whose shouts drowned out all other sounds in the stadium.

This situation surprised the media quite a bit.

It's worth noting that while Manchester United and Manchester City haven't exactly been the biggest rivals, they are derby opponents and are fiercely competitive.

Lineker couldn't help but exclaim, "It's unbelievable that Shan Yongzhuo completely conquered Old Trafford in just 45 minutes."

"Shan Yongzhuo has truly amazed the world by winning over the fans of the city rivals, and the most proud Manchester United fans in England."

"But what's so strange about that? His performance was absolutely impeccable!"

Manchester United, after the match, said sourly, "Manchester City is the luckiest team in the world; they have the best player on the planet."

"A player like Shan Yongzhuo should be playing for a top team like Manchester United, but he's our opponent. I don't know what our club is doing..."

The halftime break ended quickly.

In the second half, perhaps Ferguson's wind machine took effect, as Manchester United's players were noticeably more energetic at the start of the second half. They played more aggressively and proactively, and their attack and defense were very organized.

However, their persistence only lasted for 8 minutes.

In the 53rd minute, Manchester City won a corner kick. Silva took the corner, and Shan Yongzhuo got to the ball in the penalty area and headed it in a curling shot, once again breaking through De Gea's goal.

7 is better than 0!

The moment the ball flew into the goal, a huge uproar and cheers erupted from the stands, while the Manchester United players' faces were filled with despair.

De Gea, in particular, had reddened eyes and was on the verge of tears.

How are we supposed to play this ball?
After the goal, Lineker remarked, "The outcome of the match is no longer in doubt. Manchester United have suffered their biggest defeat in history at Old Trafford."

"Shan Yongzhuo has already scored 6 goals, averaging a goal every 9 minutes. This efficiency is making Manchester United feel hopeless..."

"I don't know of any team that wouldn't feel despair facing a player like Shan Yongzhuo. I feel very sorry for Manchester United right now. Especially De Gea, he's an excellent goalkeeper, but to suffer such a blow, I just hope this match won't affect his mentality..."

However, Manchester United's despair continues.

In the 60th minute, Balotelli cut inside and scored again.

8 is better than 0!

After this goal, the entire Old Trafford stadium was filled with shock.

What can I say?

Such a scoreline is unprecedented in Manchester United's history, and this painful defeat will forever be etched in Manchester United's annals.

However, this is an incredibly shameful part of history.

Generally speaking, such a scoreline only occurs in matches between amateur and professional teams. No one would have imagined that one day, the invincible Manchester United would suffer such a massacre.

Many people couldn't help but think of the match between Manchester United and Arsenal this season, also at Old Trafford, where Manchester United thrashed Arsenal 8-2.

However, Manchester United fared even worse in this match, failing to score a single goal while conceding eight to Manchester City, with Shan Yongzhuo scoring six of them.

Many Manchester United fans have already left, unable to bear seeing their team suffer such a massacre.

However, none of the Manchester United female fans left; they stayed at the stadium, wanting to continue watching Shan Yongzhuo's performance.

Manchester United's players had already lost their composure, and their actions on the field became increasingly aggressive and violent.

But they still couldn't stop the goal.

In the 65th minute, Shan Yongzhuo dribbled past Evans on the edge of the penalty area and scored again with a powerful shot.

9 is better than 0!

The match turned into a complete massacre.

After seeing the goal, Mancini decided to substitute this formidable weapon.

Seven goals in one game, that's a bit too much.

Although Shan Yongzhuo looked to be in excellent form, Mancini decided to substitute him as a precaution. After all, even a rabbit will bite when cornered, let alone Manchester United.
The atmosphere on the field is getting quite tense, and Manchester City is no longer willing to attack relentlessly. Substituting Shan Yongzhuo is a form of protection.

This substitution relieved the Manchester United players, who even wanted to give Mancini a "good guy" card. They were terrified of Shan Yongzhuo; the guy was unstoppable.

Evans and De Gea, in particular, were deeply moved as they watched Shan Yongzhuo walk off the field.

For them, the nightmare was finally over.

Shan Yongzhuo also reaped a heroic reward, receiving applause and cheers from the entire stadium. He didn't forget to send his kisses to the fans, not only to the Manchester City women's cheerleaders, but also to the Manchester United female fans.

Most of the applause came from Manchester United fans, who applauded Shan Yongzhuo as a sign of their admiration for an extremely good opponent.

Many female fans even hoped that Shan Yongzhuo would stay on the field, which reflects a very complex mindset.

The outcome of the match was no longer in doubt, but with 25 minutes remaining, it could be considered garbage time.

It's better to just watch Shan Yongzhuo continue his performance.

Manchester United has no hope whatsoever; they've already lost badly.
