Guarin Sends Icardi Flying with One Punch: "You Don't Deserve to Play Professional Football!"

Manchester United lost!

They finally lost!

Manchester United's winning streak at the start of the league season has come to an end!

In the sixth round of the Premier League, Manchester City defeated Everton 3-0 at home, while Manchester United were Tottenham Hotspur 1-3 by Tottenham at home.

The climax and turning point of the match came with a breakout performance from Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Guarin.

This physically imposing player, known for his powerful shots, seemed to be possessed by a god in this match. His two powerful shots, like cannonballs, blasted open Manchester United's goal and directly determined the outcome of the game!

Guarin's two goals not only showcased his exceptional individual ability but also propelled Tottenham Hotspur to victory, plunging the Old Trafford crowd into silence.

However, the score difference was not the only interesting aspect of this match.

The match was fiercely contested, with tensions running high. A clash between Icardi and Guarin brought the game to another climax.

The incident stemmed from a dispute over possession of the ball. When Guarin saw De Bruyne lying injured on the ground for a long time, out of respect for his opponent, Guarin kicked the ball out of bounds to pause the game.

This was supposed to be a good thing, embodying the spirit of sportsmanship, but then Icardi pulled a series of questionable moves.

Teammate Rojo threw the ball to Icardi from the throw-in. Logically, Icardi should have kicked the ball back to the Tottenham Hotspur player, thus bringing this friendly gesture from the opponents to a perfect close.

But perhaps because the team was down by two goals at home and there wasn't much time left in the game;

Or perhaps because of his poor form in this match and his repeated missed opportunities, Icardi suddenly acted impulsively, failing to relinquish possession and instead dribbling the ball towards Tottenham Hotspur's penalty area!

Tottenham Hotspur's center-back Vertonghen looked completely bewildered, waving his hands at the referee in protest!

Icardi ignored him, dribbled past him, and slotted the ball into the net, breaching Lloris's goal!

"There's still time, keep going! Turn the tide!"

Icardi, who scored the goal, shouted excitedly at his teammates.

With a tick, the scoreboard at Old Trafford showed 1:2.

The Tottenham Hotspur players erupted!

Everyone instantly surrounded Icardi!

Guarin forward the fastest, delivering a powerful punch to Icardi's chest, knocking him to the ground!

"Are you even a man?! You don't deserve to play professional football!" Guarin roared angrily at him.

Although the Manchester United players knew they were in the wrong, they were also baffled by Icardi's actions;

However, seeing their team's top scorer being surrounded by the opponents, they couldn't just stand by and watch, so they all rushed in, causing chaos between the two teams.

Fortunately, the referee intervened in time, preventing the situation from escalating further.

Icardi clutched his chest and groaned on the ground, while Guarin, held down by four Tottenham Hotspur teammates, struggled and roared, "Mauro, you bastard, I'll chop you up with my own hands!"

Everyone knows Guarin's temper; when he loses his temper, he's truly capable of killing.

Guarin was sent off with a red card for a violent attack.

As for Icardi?

The referee awkwardly told the Tottenham Hotspur players that he could not penalize Icardi because he had not committed a foul.

Returning possession of the ball is not a hard and fast rule, but rather a customary practice that embodies the spirit of sportsmanship.

But if someone lacks sportsmanship, there's really nothing that can be done, because when people are shameless, they become invincible!

Fortunately, Manchester United captain Rooney remained calm and communicated smoothly with the opposing captain Lloris, indicating that they were willing to give him a goal back.

Then, all the Manchester United players stood still, allowing Kane to dribble the ball all the way into the goal and score, sending a goal back to Manchester United.

Ultimately, the score remained 1-3 until the end of the match.

After the match, the conflict quickly became headline news in major media outlets, especially the "on-field clash between former Inter Milan player Icardi and Guarin," which became a hot topic among fans.

People are marveling at how these two players, who once shone brightly in Serie A, can still bring a lot of entertainment to fans in the Premier League, albeit in a slightly controversial way this time.

Guarin's actions after the match sparked widespread discussion.

According to information revealed by the Sun, he texted Manchester City players Ranocchia and Tang Long after the match, telling them, "Next time Manchester City faces Icardi, 'Kill him!'"

Icardi's social media accounts have been flooded with messages!

Countless fans flooded the comments section, hurling insults at him mercilessly.

One fan said, "I've been watching the Premier League for over ten years, and this is the first time I've ever seen someone refuse to return possession of the ball!"

Some fans even complained that Icardi's excited expression after scoring was absolutely disgusting!

Some fans even said that Agüero, the striker for Manchester City and also an Argentina player, would never do such a shameless thing!

Faced with these accusations, even Manchester United fans dared not retaliate or speak up for him.

Only Icardi's wife, Wanda, responded to almost every single one of these comments, shutting them down!

"My husband did nothing wrong; he just wanted to give his all for Manchester United!"

"Who do you think you are, to criticize my husband? How many Pound Sterling do you earn a month?"

"Heh, instead of wasting your time cursing here, you should go lay some bricks. Have you finished paying off your mortgage yet?"

"You Liverpool and Arsenal fans are just jealous of my husband, jealous of the best player in the world!"

Ultimately, Icardi's social media accounts had to disable the comment function.

After deliberation, Manchester United's management decided to impose a Pound Sterling 50,000 fine on Icardi within the team.

Urged by Rooney, Icardi apologized to the entire team in the locker room.

However, he was clearly not convinced and posted another social media status.

A lion never cares about the barking of a hyena!

The accompanying picture shows the lion tattoo on his chest.

This made Agüero, the senior player on the national team, look down on him. Agüero said to Tang Long:

"Someone like him dares to call himself a lion? I think he's not even as good as a rat!"

During Agüero's three-match suspension, Tang Long filled the goal gap, scoring three goals in two rounds, bringing his total to four goals, surpassing Agüero to become the team's top scorer.

Agüero had no objection to this.

Because he knew that no matter how many goals Tang Long scored, as long as he returned to the field, his starting position would still be his.

Even if Tang Long were to play as a forward, he would play as a second forward, while the center position would still be firmly under his control.

Bony didn't have much of an opinion.

Thanks to Tang Long's help, Bony broke his goal drought and finally scored this season, relieving the pressure and providing temporary mental relief.

It could be said that when he was desperately thirsty, Tang Long gave him a bottle of water!

Lifesaving water.

Bony's story is not a typical Europe football fairy tale.

Unlike players who grow up in welfare states and carefree pursue their football dreams, his starting point was a barren slum in Ivory Coast.

There, life reveals its cruelty and injustice in the most primal way.

Bony's family, a large family with eight siblings, pinned all their hopes on this precocious child.

Football became his only way to escape poverty and change his family's fate.

When Bony joined Swansea from Carlos Tevez in the Eredivisie as a professional player, the whole family seemed to see a glimmer of hope!

In the slums of Ivory Coast, they raised their arms to the sunlight and shouted, "Money, come on!"

A Pound Sterling 1.8 million annual salary is an astronomical figure for ordinary people, but for Bony, it is a heavy responsibility.

His salary not only supports his own life in a foreign land, but also serves as the economic pillar for more than 150 people in Ivory Coast.

If it's just about feeding these people, that's fine;

However, his family members treated him like an ATM, and endless demands came flooding in!

From basic living expenses to the extravagant dream of immigrating to UK, from buying a villa in London to demanding to marry a beautiful white girl, these demands weighed heavily on Bony, making it hard for him to breathe.

After transferring to Manchester City, Bony thought he could usher in a new chapter in his professional career, but he never expected that the burden on his shoulders would not be lightened, but rather become heavier!

"Brothers and sisters, uncles and aunts, Bony has joined a top club! He's made a fortune in UK! We're going to take off too, hehehe~"

Just as Bony's form was improving at Manchester City, his relatives, who had come from afar, suddenly showed up at his door!

This time, they were even more brazen, barging directly into Bony's home and demanding money and a house from him.

Bony tried to avoid it, but to no avail. Just then, Yaya Toure, the senior player of the Ivory Coast national team, arrived at Bony's house with a frown on his face.

As a highly respected figure in the African national team, Toure used his unique authority and the threat of calling the police to drive away these greedy relatives, giving Bony a temporary respite.

"Here, your football boots! Sigh, playing in the Premier League and you can't even afford football boots? If you told me, not even your relatives in Ivory Coast would believe it!"

Toure handed a pair of sneakers to Bony.

Bony, holding the sneakers, his eyes brimming with tears, choked out:

"Brother, there's no other way. That's why I can't leave Manchester City. If they kick me out, I'll definitely have to take a pay cut if I go to another team. How am I supposed to support my family?"

Toure hesitated for a moment, then finally sighed, turned and left.

From Ligue 1 to La Liga, and then to the Premier League, Toure, who played in Europe for more than a decade, accumulated far more wealth Bony.

But as an Ivory Coast, he, like Bony, also bore the responsibility of supporting his people.

The economic pressure he faced was actually no less than that of Bony.

Before coming to Bony's house, the mayor of his hometown called him, hoping he would donate Pound Sterling 2 million to build a road in his hometown.

Although he hated this bottomless pit, he, as a generation of African players, had no choice but to do it.

Is this a responsibility, a habit, or even a form of forced coercion?

Toure couldn't explain it clearly, so he understood Bony very well. He saw himself in Bony eight years ago when he had just joined Barca.

Today, after finishing training, Toure felt uneasy.

He overheard several members of the coaching staff discussing how Pellegrini greatly admired Tang Long's versatility.

In the midweek UEFA Champions League group stage match against Borussia Monchengladbach, given the relatively weak opponent, Tang Long might be given a chance to try playing in the defensive midfield position, as he previously played in this position at Inter Milan. Pellegrini wants to see how effective he is as a defensive midfielder at Manchester City.

32-year-old Toure suddenly felt a sense of crisis.

Whether you play as an attacking midfielder or a striker, it doesn't matter to me.

If you play defensive midfield, I won't be able to sit still!

Manchester City already has four regular defensive midfielders: me, Fernando, Fernandinho, and new signing Delph.

Another Tang Long! My goodness, five people kicking two positions, they're going to crush us!

Toure, who was in the final year of his contract and looking forward to renewal, felt a deep midlife crisis.

My professional career is almost over, I really can't afford to play haphazardly anymore!
