The atmosphere in Manchester is no less than that of the New Year.

A special singing competition is being held outside the Etihad Stadium, with a surging blue ocean and passionate red flames.
"Blue Moon~"
"You know just what I was there for~"

The fans of both Manchester City and Manchester United are singing the team song passionately, with huge crowds and a magnificent picture that is shocking.
Click, click, click!
Media reporters from all over Europe are frantically pressing the shutter button to record this crazy scene.
Manchester City's strong rise this season has made the attention of this Manchester Derby the highest in more than a decade!
"Manchester Derby is staged again. Will the Red Devils continue their glory, or will the Blue Moon establish a new dynasty? "
"Looking at the world football, the strongest derby between the two sides? Manchester City vs Manchester United! "
"Warming up for the derby, a thousand Red Devils fans parade in Manchester! "
"This will be a derby that determines the color of Manchester's future sky! "
"Looking forward to the Manchester Derby, we will count the grievances and hatreds between Manchester United and Manchester City for a hundred years! "
Early before today, news about the Manchester Derby had been flying all over the European football world.
Major TV stations have invested money and found the Premier League to buy the broadcasting rights of this game, and major football commentators have also been in front of the TV on time.
All the bars in Manchester were fully booked by fans from both sides three days in advance.
Many schools and companies in Manchester also rented venues to organize students, workers and employees to watch the Manchester derby together.
At the same time, countless fans around the world were waiting in front of the TV in advance, day and night.
.................................
Sky Sports, MOTD column team special live broadcast.
"Dangdangdang!"
"Hello, friends of the Premier League fans, welcome to watch MOTD, I am the host Gary Lineker!"
"There is still one and a half hours before the Manchester derby officially starts!"
"Now we will connect you with the live reporter."
"We will interview the fans!"
......
The TV showed a picture of the MOTD live reporter standing outside the Etihad Stadium, surrounded by crazy fans.
"Hello sir, I'm Danny, a reporter from MOTD. Do you have anything to say to support the team in front of the camera?"
Danny handed the microphone to a Red Devils fan with a Manchester United flag painted on his face.
The Red Devils fan pointed at the camera and roared.
"Fxxxxk Manchester City, Fxxxxk Su! Glory Man United!!!"
Danny didn't expect the fan to make a big scene right away. He was about to thank him and change someone else to interview.
But that's when.
The Red Devils fans around who heard the fan's shouting all excitedly squeezed in front of the camera and started yelling at the microphone.
"Fxxxxxk Su!!"
"Fxxxxxk Su!!"
"Fxxxxxk Su!!"
For a while, the crowd around him shouted Fxxxk Su in unison, like a cult scene.
Danny wiped his sweat and quickly asked his assistant to urgently cut off the sound signal of the live broadcast.
But even if you only look at the picture without sound, you can still feel the madness of the Red Devils fans at this time.
As a neutral TV station, Danny knew that this would not work, as Sky Sports would be labeled as Manchester United TV in a short while.
He could only squeeze through the crowd with his camera assistant.
He came to the gathering place of Manchester City fans wearing blue cheering jackets.
This time.
Danny carefully found a blond kid wearing a No. 9 jersey.
"Hello, kid, I'm from MOTDDanny, the reporter from Manchester United, can you introduce yourself to everyone? "
The blond kid was not shy in front of the camera.
"Hello everyone, my name is Erling Haaland, I support Manchester City, and I am a fan of the team."
"Okay, Haaland, do you have any words of support for the team that you want to say to Manchester City?"
"No."
Danny was stunned for a moment, the script seemed to be wrong, and then, Danny saw the kid pointing his little middle finger at the camera.
"I just want to say Fxxxk you to Manchester United! The sky in Manchester is blue!"
Petrified, Danny was really petrified this time.
Alf Haaland, the father of the kid next to him, quickly stepped forward and pulled back his raised middle finger, looking at Danny with an apologetic smile.
"Sorry, the kid is too young and ignorant, he thought this gesture was a sign of respect."
"Understand, understand. "
Danny forced a smile to stay calm, but saw the kid's eyes roll, and he gave the camera the middle finger again, shouting in a baby voice.
"Yes, that's right, respect! I respect Manchester United the most... I must respect Manchester United!"
Then, there was a picture of the kid's middle finger waving in front of the camera...
Danny wanted to cry, are you still going to play or not.
Pinch!
Quickly cut off the live interview camera, this interview won't be done today!
..............................................
On the other side, Stewart, who had brought the players to the Etihad Stadium for warm-up training in advance.
Has arrived at the pre-match press conference.
It has entered the Manchester derby over the years, the media reporters' favorite part of making tough remarks.
Today, Stewart, who was dressed up carefully, faced the camera and said the most arrogant words in the calmest tone.
"We successfully defeated Manchester United at Old Trafford in the last game. This time at home, we can certainly beat Manchester United again. ”
“This season!”
“We will use two victories to prove that the era of Manchester United belonging to Manchester United has completely ended. Ferguson can only recall the glory of the Red Devils in his dreams!”
Stuart’s speech ignited the scene and made the Manchester derby even more explosive.
Ferguson, who was interviewed on the other side, poured another bucket of gasoline.
Today, the old Sir wore a thick black windbreaker with a Manchester United medal on his chest.
“Before Manchester City wins the Premier League, I will never really respect them!”
“Listen, they don’t have any Premier League-related honors, and we Manchester United have achieved the feat of the Triple Crown and have represented the Premier League at the top of Europe!”
“Today, the team will use a victory to prove that Manchester will always belong to Manchester United! "
The two head coaches, under the media's incitement and the pre-match atmosphere, seemed to have lost their minds.
Using the sharpest language, they attacked each other without reservation.
The Manchester derby officially started.
There is still half an hour!
