Manchester derby, the Red Devils can’t touch the blue moon at all.

Reporter Han Bing reports It’s 0 to 3 again, and it’s a huge gap with little strength to fight back. For the third time, Manchester United was defeated by Manchester City, the city’s sworn enemy, by more than 3 goals at home in the Premier League. If it weren’t for Onana’s Banksy pounce and many rescues, and Harland’s repeated missed opportunities, Evans would have suffered another embarrassing 1-6-even Manchester United couldn’t find anyone who scored that goal. The figures are cold and cruel: Manchester United under Ferguson lost only 34 times at home in 26 years, with an average of less than 1.3 games per season; But ten years after Sir Alex retired, Manchester United has lost 34 home games, averaging 3.4 games per season, almost increasing by 2.6 times!

This season, Manchester United have lost five games in the first 10 rounds of the Premier League, the most since nearly 37 years (1986/87 season, 10 games and 6 losses). Manchester United, once arrogant, now has a strength gap with Manchester City, the sworn enemy of the same city. Although Guardiola gave Tenghahe some face after the game, saying that it was not easy to beat Manchester United, other Premier League celebrities were not so polite. Shearer bluntly said that this was a "game between men and boys" and thought it was a completely unequal contest: "The result of the game only depends on how many goals Manchester City wants to score. Manchester United found themselves far behind, which is their most frustrating place."

Manchester City in Guardiola’s era has defeated Manchester United 9 times away from home, surpassing Arsenal (8 times); Among them, the Premier League beat Manchester United five times away from home, also surpassing Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur. Manchester City is worth 390 million euros more than Manchester United, close to Juventus (420 million) and more than Rome (360 million). The strength of players is in different orders of magnitude, so is the level of coaches.

After the game, Neville and Carragher argued about Manchester United’s tactical mistakes, while Neville emphasized that the sale of Manchester United affected morale. Neville also mentioned Maguire and Mount, saying that their original intentions were Manchester City and Liverpool, but they all joined Manchester United in the end: "Should the students be blamed or the teachers?" Carragher stressed that Manchester United are playing "weak football", and they have taken the initiative to show weakness since the beginning of Tenghahe’s coaching, which gives players a psychological hint that they are self-indulgent. Tactically, it is an indisputable fact that Manchester United can’t compete with Manchester City in midfield and can only rely more on long pass.

Tenghahe scored only 2.8 points after the game, which is the lowest score since the Dutch coach coached Manchester United. The reporter asked about the gap between the two teams. Tenghahe’s answer was similar to last year. At the end of September last year, Manchester City swept Manchester United 6-3 at home, but at the beginning of this year, Manchester United also retaliated 2-1 at Old Trafford, which shows that Manchester City is not invincible. Manchester United lost only 1-2 in the FA Cup final in June. Why is the gap so big now? Tenghahe even thinks that this is not his most disappointing game, because the tactical plan is well executed-but the reality is that the Red Devils have almost no plan, and the attack depends on long pass, the defense depends on Onana, and Harland’s "gift"?

Compared with the classic multi-player cooperation in Manchester City’s offensive end, especially the second goal from the backcourt attack to the goal, it took only seven passes to complete. In the whole process, Manchester United can’t even touch the ball, which is the most intuitive embodiment of the strength gap between the two teams in details. The media agreed that the "perfection" of the second goal completely crushed Manchester United’s already insufficient fighting spirit. Although Manchester United is at home, its shooting (7-20) and shooting (3-10) are only one third of Manchester City’s, its possession rate is less than 40%, and its clearance (24-9) is almost 2.7 times that of Manchester City, which shows the team’s embarrassment.

Morgan, Arsenal’s diehard friend and C Ronaldo’s friend, will certainly not miss this best opportunity to ridicule Manchester United and Tenghahe: he stressed that C Ronaldo has scored 43 goals this year when Manchester United’s front line is misfiring collectively. Compared with the active offensive end of Manchester City, Manchester United’s front line is collectively lost. Anthony, Garnacho, Hojlund and Marchal have scored and assisted in the Premier League all season so far, and Rachford, who has played the most time, has only one goal and one assist. Marchal, who was replaced, handed over almost zero data in 10 minutes, with 0 goals, 0 assists, 0 shots, 0 passes, 0 clearance, 0 interception, 0 foul and even 0 touch! What’s the point of such substitution?

Keane denounced the downturn of B-fee in the game, and stressed that it was long overdue to deprive such a bad player of the captain’s armband and deliver players with more leadership and willpower. B Fei is almost invisible in this field, winning only 1/3 in 12 confrontations and being beaten four times, which totally does not match his high social status and the status of Portugal’s central midfielder. Manchester Evening News rated Manchester United players as almost humiliating: Onana lost three goals but made seven key saves, including two dives, with the team’s highest score (7 points), and six of the 11 main players scored less than 4 points. Except for the goalkeeper, coach Teng Hah only scored 2 points.

Little Redknapp’s evaluation of the strength of the Manchester City Derby is more straightforward: "The home of the two teams is only 5 miles apart, but Manchester City has left Manchester City for more than 100 miles." The number of goals scored by Harland in the Premier League (11) equaled the number of goals scored by Manchester United (10). How embarrassing. Keane insisted that Tenghahe should take the blame and resign, because the Dutch coach didn’t know how to line up the strongest team. Tenghahe stressed that Manchester United had performed very well in the last three derbies and was severely criticized by Neville. If Tenghahe still wins with his mouth and doesn’t know how to reflect on himself, I’m afraid the days before he leaves Old Trafford will be numbered. After all, neither the Gr family nor the possible new shareholder Ratcliffe will tolerate Manchester United’s complete failure in the European War.

NBL Finals is just around the corner： welcome the audience back to the scene and constantly open up basketball territory.

Edit | Chen Diandian

On September 15th, the semifinals of the 2023 National Men’s Basketball League (hereinafter referred to as NBL) are in full swing. The fourth match between Shaanxi Xinda and Guangxi Weizhuang has not yet ended, and the winner among them will play against Anhui Wenyi who advanced early in the final.

The finals is the peak stage of competitive sports. The 2023 season is a new year of NBL’s brand-new upgrade, which not only restored the home and away games, but also restarted the foreign aid system. This season, 12 teams participated in the competition, and even the Golden Bull Team of Hong Kong joined. This is the first time that the basketball territory of China really expanded to Hong Kong, and the league was held in 11 provincial administrative regions across the country.

The NBL situation in the new season is very anxious, and the broadcast screen and promotion of the event have been greatly improved compared with the past. With the opening of the NBL finals, more and more fans and brands are paying more attention to this league. We find that the influence and brand of NBL league are gradually occupying a new position in the hearts of the people.

Peak showdown! Welcome back to the audience, NBL is in full swing in 2023.

Before the start of the season, no fans may think that this season’s NBL is only in the regular season, and each team has actually fallen into a "big fight" competition pattern.

In the past four seasons, Guangxi Weizhuang was the most successful team in NBL. They not only reached the final finals for four consecutive years, but also successfully won the championship in 2021 and 2022, which was a faint dynasty. However, in the opening match that started this summer, Krypton witnessed the new army Hong Kong Golden Bull team win the defending champion Guangxi Weizhuang unexpectedly at the scene of Southorn Arena in Hong Kong, and also experienced the attention and passion of fans after the return of home and away games.

In the first three rounds of the regular season, all eight teams that reached the playoffs last season suffered defeat. Especially by the end of the season, Guangxi Weizhuang’s record was only 5 wins and 6 losses, including 3 wins and 4 losses at home and 2 wins and 2 losses away. It was the only team with a winning percentage at home lower than that at home, ranking seventh among 12 teams. On the other hand, the achievements of the three new armies newly joined in the season were somewhat unexpected: Liaoning Yisheng ranked second with 8 wins and 3 losses, and was firmly in the first group under the leadership of Hudson, the famous team of Liaoning in CBA and the scoring king of CBA history. The other two new armies, Hong Kong Jinniu and Jiangxi Ganchi, were both 4 wins and 7 losses, ranking eighth and ninth respectively.

This competition pattern of "feud between governors" lasted until the last moment of the regular season. The competition for playoff places was fierce, with 6-8 players only one win, and seven teams would compete for three playoff places, and the suspense remained until the last moment. In the playoff "life-and-death battle", Hong Kong Taurus was still 10 points behind at half-time, but they didn’t give up. They struggled with Changsha until the last minute and scored a go-ahead goal 22 seconds before the end. They finally defeated Wuhan Kunpeng 101-99 and won the last playoff spot with a big reversal.

Such fierce competition broke out completely in the playoffs. For example, in the semi-final on September 9, Anhui Wenyi and Liaoning Yisheng fought from the first game to the last moment, and Anhui Wenyi narrowly defeated her opponent at 120:118. On September 11th, Shaanxi Xinda and Guangxi Weizhuang fought in the second semi-final, and the two sides tied at the regular time until the last moment of overtime. In the end, Guangxi Weizhuang defeated his opponent by one point and equalized the big score of the series.

All these stadium stories not only stirred the blood and passion of the fans, but also paved the way for the "annual drama" of the finals. According to Krypton, this year’s NBL finals will adopt the "2-2-1-1-1" system of best of seven games, and even the fastest time to decide the champion will be on September 29th of the Mid-Autumn Festival. This system arrangement gives fans time and opportunity to fully enjoy the charm of NBL events, and creates preconditions for the spread of event stories, the expansion of IP and the influence of stars.

In the final, whether it is Anhui Wenyi or Guangxi Weizhuang and Shaanxi Xinda, which compete for the final seat, when these veteran teams meet again in the final, the fierce star confrontation and head coach’s fight will inevitably enhance the suspense of the game and fill the fans’ expectations.

Behind the fierce confrontation in the finals, a brand-new NBL league which is more and more popular with fans is coming to the fore, and behind this, it is indispensable for the organizers to carefully operate and upgrade.

Krypton learned that in the preparatory stage of NBL League, the organizers made some efforts to upgrade the brand of the event. After the home and away games were resumed, there were obvious changes in the broadcast standard of the event and the brand packaging design. The Logo of the new season, the improvement of the packaging and broadcast pictures of the stadium venue, will bring better experience to fans and spectators. All this is inseparable from the work of the organizers, but also from the support and cooperation of various clubs.

All these efforts have brought the stadium back to the enthusiastic fans and the audience in front of the screen. Krypton has learned that the attendance rate of clubs’ home courts can reach 70-80% this season, and some popular ball markets, such as Liaoning, Hefei, Shaanxi and Shijiazhuang, are frequently hard to find a ticket. The live broadcast data of the first five rounds of the regular season exceeded the whole year of last season. By the end of the regular season, the VV data reached 61.5 million, and the UV number reached 38.58 million, both of which were historical highs.

"From the aspects of competition organization, reception requirements in competition areas, broadcast signal production, media promotion and business development, we have made detailed requirements for all clubs, and organized various trainings many times before the competition to enable relevant standards and requirements to be implemented, and formulated a unified competition operation standard for the league. Wang Di, assistant general manager of Deep Basketball Sports, told Krypton.

"This year is, in a sense, a season of all-round upgrade of NBL League, which will allow more fans to watch NBL League and pay attention to NBL League. Wang Di said that the official accounts of all participating clubs can broadcast the match live this season, so as to give back to the home fans better and make the fans of the club feel more belonging when watching the live broadcast.

Attracting Hong Kong teams to join, NBL expands the basketball territory of China.

Sports is a concentrated expression of the development of culture and economy, and excellent IP can always attract investors’ attention. With the joining of Hong Kong teams, NBL League became the first domestic professional league with Hong Kong clubs participating and its home court set in Hong Kong.

It is understood that the Golden Bull Club of Hong Kong hopes to join a league that implements the system of subject and object. Considering that China has the largest basketball league in Asia and a huge basketball market, Taurus has set its sights on NBL. "By participating in high-level and highly antagonistic competitions, we believe that the Taurus team will surely become stronger and stronger, and deepen sports exchanges and cooperation with the mainland while upgrading the level of basketball in Hong Kong and promoting sports specialization and industrialization. "The club told Krypton.

In the course of the NBL campaign, the Hong Kong Jinniu team relied on the operation of the team culture to enhance the team’s fan appeal. Since June 1st, Taurus has started to operate social platform accounts including Weibo, Video No.,Tik Tok and Xiaohongshu, produced and published posters, player data, post-match videos and tidbits of each game, even including the team’s away games, all-star experience and many other contents, and also launched themes such as "Little Bulls Night Little Golden Bull Night" and "Retro Party’ Golden’ Night" for local fans in Hong Kong.

It not only brings fresh blood to the China mainland sports leagues, but also builds a bridge of basketball communication between Hong Kong and the mainland through the language of basketball, which proves that the sports culture communication between Hong Kong and the mainland is getting closer and closer.

"Under the background of Greater Bay Area’s construction, the promotion and exchange of basketball between Hong Kong and the mainland has played a positive role in further promoting the rejuvenation of the country’s three major goals and the development of professional sports, comprehensively deepening sports exchanges and cooperation with Hong Kong and Macao, and helping Hong Kong integrate into the overall situation of national development. It is also one of the concrete measures to implement the construction of a sports power. The Taurus Club told Krypton.

Outside the team level, NBL League has also been favored by many sponsors this season. Including NBL’s official partner midfield line, official suppliers such as Jinuoer and Spalding have voted for olive branches, and the commercial value of the league has gradually picked up. At the same time, NBL has also provided a stage for more sports enterprises eager for upward development, helping the development of sports manufacturing industry from the competition level.

Run NBL well and water the fertile basketball soil in China.

Last year, BA, a village that burst into flames, created an empty lane and a hard-to-find scene. In this year, the popularity of village BA is further deepened. With the arrival of many "national versions" of village BA and the dedication of many social forces, rural basketball is opening up a new situation, driving the popularity of mass sports and mass basketball.

Behind this, the huge basketball population in China is being activated. According to the Report on the Development of Basketball in China released by chinese basketball association, the population of basketball in China is about 125 million, and basketball is the first sport of collective ball games.

NBL, as the only men’s professional basketball league held in summer in China, has played an important role in the comprehensive coverage and healthy development of professional basketball in China.

What’s more commendable is that NBL has extended professional basketball to places that are difficult to be covered by CBA, serving the basketball population in China with more dimensions. For example, Maitreya, Yunnan, the venue of this year’s All-Star Games, this little-known town has made great efforts to develop sports in recent years, and has successively held the World Free Fight Competition.China-AustraliaMen’s Basketball Challenge, Women’s International Half Marathon, National Cross-country Motorcycle Invitational Tournament, etc.

NBL has brought new opportunities for the development of sports in the city, enriching many basketball areas that are not covered by professional sports. As can also be seen from the figure, NBL has covered nine provincial-level administrative regions without CBA teams this season, most of which are concentrated in the inland of the motherland, and its geographical distribution also reflects the unique value of NBL league.

Where there is a lack of professional teams, NBL has sown the fire of professional basketball, igniting the love of more fans, just like the reflected sunlight, illuminating the seeds in the fertile soil of China basketball territory and creating a new environment for upward growth.

It is precisely because of the existence of NBL that more and more basketball teenagers and powerful players stand out from here. Zhao Rui, Cui Xiaolong and Jiang Yuxing, CBA stars, all started in NBL, and some rookies regard NBL as an alchemy furnace rushing to a higher stage. From 2015 to 2023, NBL sent 20 players to CBA through draft.

"NBL must take the development path of youth and localization. While ensuring the professional operation of the club, the Deep Basketball Association will cooperate with the association to introduce more policies to promote the healthy development of the league, attract more young players to join the NBL League, and make the NBL League a platform for outstanding players to enter professional basketball careers. "When talking about the future development, Wang Di told kryptonite.

"In addition, we should deepen the localization operation, make local fans feel more belonging through the youth training and fan exchange activities organized by the club itself, and truly build a professional basketball club belonging to a city. Wang Di said, "I hope that in the future, the NBL League will continue to’ open up the territory’ and strive to have teams in as many provincial administrative regions as possible, so as to contribute to expanding the territory of professional basketball events in China and building a sports power. 」

In the process of telling city stories, building basketball culture and shaping league brand, NBL is gradually conveying the concept of "My home court is infinite", which also makes the upcoming NBL finals open up a broad imagination space of local culture and home court atmosphere, and the roots of China basketball are also spreading at this time, affecting more people.

Looking back on the long years of NBL’s growth, although the league has ups and downs, it has laid the foundation for the development of sports leagues in China, and also represents the progress of basketball in China. In the new era, the sports industry expects NBL to continue to bring more excitement and practice the concept of basketball upgrading and development in China.

Reporting/feedback

After Kardashian’s visit, Arsenal lost the title, and someone summed it up. They only scored 15 points out of 30 points & lost 2 titles.

Although the defeat in this game is a blow to Arsenal, it will not affect their performance in the Premier League this season. According to statistics, since Kim Kardashian visited Emirates Stadium in March, Arsenal have only scored 15 points in the past 10 rounds. In contrast, Manchester City performed well, scoring 30 points in these 10 rounds. However, although Arsenal have become a strong enemy in the Premier League this season, they still have a chance to regain the championship in future competitions.

Guangsha eliminated Guangdong! The referee almost ruined the classic game with a penalty, and Du Feng smiled and congratulated his opponent.

# Hundreds of teams #

On the evening of April 23rd, Beijing time, the CBA scored 8-4 in the playoffs, and the Guangdong team fought the Guangsha team. This is also the third game of the series, and whoever wins will enter the top four. In the games that have ended, Zhejiang team and Liaoning team have advanced, and these two teams are also popular for the championship. As the Shanghai team was deprived of playoff places, the Shenzhen team directly advanced to the top four, against the Zhejiang team with the first record in the league, while the winners of Guangdong team and Guangsha team will face Liaoning team in the top four.

In the first half of the game, the physical confrontation between the two teams was fierce. In the first quarter, Guangdong team was 1 point behind 18-19. In the second quarter, the offensive efficiency of both teams was significantly improved. With Hu Mingxuan hitting the buzzer for 3 points, Guangdong team scored 30 points in the second quarter, which also surpassed Guangsha team by 3 points. The score difference is not very big, and there is still a lot of suspense in the game. Because it is a life-and-death battle, both teams do their best at both ends of the attack and defense, and the game is quite exciting.

In the third quarter, Guangsha once led by 12 points, but Ma Shang Brooks scored continuously. After Hu Mingxuan scored 2+1, he also hit a 3-pointer. After the third quarter, Guangdong only fell behind by 2 points. For Guangsha team, Hu Jinqiu was injured in the game and has been playing on the sidelines. If he can’t play, Guangdong team will be more determined to attack Guangsha team’s insider.

In the last quarter, the referee’s penalty is a long story. Hu Jinqiu grabbed the offensive rebound and scored directly, but the referee fined Guangsha for 24 seconds. After the replay, the referee awarded 2 points. After that, the head coach of Guangsha team’s actions were intriguing, and he kept shaking his head. In fact, this round is really too obvious. The referee blew a 24-second penalty, which is really puzzling. Maybe many fans are also very dissatisfied and unfair to Guangsha team.

As the game went on, Guangsha team gradually found its state, and Hu Jinqiu kept grabbing the rebounds in the frontcourt, while core players such as Sun Minghui and Welch stood up at the crucial moment to help Guangsha team get a 7-point lead. In the end, Guangsha team eliminated Guangdong team, reached the top 4 of CBA playoffs and will play against Liaoning team. Hu Jinqiu scored 16 points and 22 rebounds, Sun Minghui scored 23 points, 5 rebounds and 8 assists, and Wiltzer scored 17 points and 6 rebounds. Guangdong Yi Jianlian scored 3 points and 7 rebounds, Du Runwang scored 14 points, Ma Shang scored 27 points, 10 rebounds and 6 assists, Hu Mingxuan scored 15 points, 4 rebounds and 2 assists, and Hamilton scored 16 points and 8 rebounds.

After the game, Guangdong players were very depressed, and coach Du Feng was also very helpless, but he still smiled and congratulated his opponent on his promotion. The pattern was very big. In fact, no team is a teacher who always wins. Even if Guangdong is the biggest club in CBA, it can’t always win. When the team has a peak, there will be a trough. The Guangsha team also has the best chance to win the championship, but the Liaoning team is a more terrible team than the Guangdong team.

There is no doubt that the duel between Guangsha and Guangdong is also the most exciting game in the 22-23 season, and almost every round is full of highlights. Fortunately, the referee blew the penalty of Guangsha for 24 seconds and corrected the mistake in time. Otherwise, it would really be full of controversy and ruin this classic battle. Shanghai team and Jiangsu team are lessons from the past. Now no team dares to fake the ball, and the referee will be very cautious about the penalty. As for the penalty for the 24-second violation, I would rather believe that the referee present really didn’t see the situation at that time, but nothing else. CBA8′ s entry into the fourth round has all ended, and then the four teams will compete for the championship, which makes people look forward to it very much.

A consortium of fans named Red Devils United wants to make a formal offer for Manchester United through NFT and other financing methods.

[A fan consortium named Red Devils United wants to make an official bid for Manchester United through NFT and other financing methods] Red Devils United, a fan-led consortium, announced that they are "making" an official bid for Manchester United.

They hope to use "the collective strength of Manchester United fans to regain control of the club they love."

The bid was jointly funded by fans and private investors, and fans who supported the bid were asked to buy nft in exchange for membership and some decision-making control.

Lorenzo Alessi of Red Devils United said: "The mission behind the Red Devils United is to reform and democratize elite sports ownership by giving fans a say in the highest level of competition. “

A large part of the organization’s funds will come from donations from fans, which the organization claims will not require the purchase of cryptocurrency. Manchester United have not yet learned this fact.

The organization said: "This will be the first time the club has heard of this project. We will send the details of this proposal to Manchester United and invite the club, their representatives and fans to ask questions. "
