I Want to Be the King of Football - Chapter 991

When the team returned from Madrid to Manchester, their opponents in the Champions League semi-finals came out.

Sure enough, as expected, it is Barcelona.

Although the first leg away was tied with zero to zero by their opponents, Barcelona eventually defeated their opponents three to one with Messi’s two goals at home and successfully advanced to the semi-finals.

As a result, Manchester City and Barcelona will meet in the semifinals.

This is definitely the most interesting focus of the Champions League so far this season.

Manchester City is known as the most traditional Barcelona team. Whether it is from the configuration of the players, the coaching style of the head coach, and even the management of the club, they all have a very interesting Barcelona flavor, even the godfather of Barcelona Cruyff. That said, Manchester City is the most authentic Barcelona football, and Barcelona is more of a mixed race.

This aspect shows his dissatisfaction with Mourinho’s coaching, but it is also an endorsement of Guardiola.

There was even a saying before that the Barcelona management wanted to introduce Guardiola to Barcelona to coach in order to replace Mourinho, but in the end it was announced with the renewal of Guardiola.

And now, Guardiola will take this most authentic Barcelona-derived team to the Nou Camp Stadium. This is a very classic matchup for all fans around the world.

In addition, the two teams are also outstanding.

Barcelona has Messi sitting here, he is almost one person, leading Barcelona all the way to the promotion, and finally reached the semi-finals.

In addition, powerful players like Iniesta, Xavi, Yaya Toure, etc. are also familiar to the world’s fans. This has allowed Barcelona to consecutively reach the Champions League finals in the past few years.

Three finals, although only won one championship, but Barcelona’s strength is evident.

Manchester City is equally unambiguous.

Needless to say, Su Dong, stars such as David Silva, Tony Cross, Di Maria and Sanchez have all become household names as Manchester City’s performance has improved in the past two years, especially among Premier League fans. , The strength of this group of players has long been recognized, which makes Manchester City also full of talents.

From the death group to AC Milan to Real Madrid, although Manchester City participated in the UEFA Champions League for the first time, they were able to overcome obstacles and pass the test, and their performance was not unsatisfactory. They were able to reach the semi-finals and their strength was also recognized.

Under this circumstance, the encounter between Manchester City and Barcelona was like sparks hitting the earth, which attracted strong attention from media and fans all over the world, especially in the European Super Cup before the season. The two teams had already had a contest. It is Manchester City who are slightly better.

After the Super Cup, Barcelona coach Mourinho was under tremendous pressure from public opinion, because in front of Guardiola’s Manchester City, instead of playing Barcelona’s traditional style, he became conservative at the critical moment, which led to the ball. The team missed the opportunity.

Mourinho threatened to take revenge at the time, and now the opportunity has come.

Meet again, what kind of tactics will Mourinho adopt?

This is definitely the focus of the world’s most attention.

…

…

Manchester City did not have too much time to think about their opponents in the semifinals, because after returning from Madrid to Manchester, the team quickly went south to London without stopping to challenge Arsenal away.

This is the 32nd round of the Premier League.

The Gunners and Manchester City can be regarded as new and old grudges, and this battle is also deeply related.

Judging from the current league situation, Arsenal is determined to retain the top four qualifications in the league. This must have an advantage in the competition with Tottenham Hotspur and Chelsea, so it is necessary to get as many league points as possible.

The best result is to be able to suppress Tottenham Hotspur in the competition and get third in the league, which is considered stable.

On the other hand, in the home game last season, Arsenal was humiliated by Manchester City. Wenger and the gunmen were aggrieved by this. Now Manchester City has been fighting on multiple lines for a long time, and the players are exhausted physically and mentally. With Real Madrid, although qualifying for the Champions League semi-finals, life is also not easy.

Not to mention anything else, Arsenal is now empty-handed, only the league, it can be said to be at ease.

Unlike Manchester City, the Champions League must be played, the league must also be played, and the FA Cup semi-finals will be played in mid-April, against Tottenham Hotspur. It can be said that Manchester City’s game pressure is quite huge.

In this case, where would the Gunners be polite to Manchester City?

Of course it was taking advantage of his illness to take his life!

From the point of view of honor, the only team in the Premier League to remain undefeated and win the championship is Arsenal. If Manchester City continue to be so unbeaten this season, then Blue Moon is completely likely to become the second team, and the results are even better than Arsenal. Excellent, which inevitably made the gunner feel a little lost.

You know, in the previous Premier League record of four goals in a single game, Arsenal is the only one among the others, but now it is snatched by Su Dong, a single game with five goals, completely seconds Arsenal has accumulated in the past few years. The bottom line.

It is the new grudges and the old grudges that make Arsenal pay more attention to this game.

…

Manchester City’s performance in the game was indeed curbed by Arsenal.

The Gunners players have more physical fitness and have launched a fierce press against Manchester City from the beginning.

Although it is on the defensive, it is very aggressive defensively, leaving no chance for Manchester City. Wenger even specially arranged the pair of midfielders, Alexander Song and Arteta, to firmly form the protection of the midfielder.

The Manchester City players have been fatigued for a long time, and their state has fluctuated. Although they still control the ball, they have not been able to organize an effective attack. Dzeko and Aguero in front have not been able to provoke the team’s offensive beams. In Kosche Under the scrutiny of Ernie and Vermaelen, the two strikers of Manchester City looked a bit miserable.

This is also after Arsenal has found the most suitable mid-back configuration for the team after a long-term adjustment and adjustment, so that Koscielny and Vermaelen have played well in the game.

The first half ended with zero to zero. Neither side could score a goal, but Manchester City controlled the ball and wasted more opportunities, which is a bit regrettable.

After changing sides in the second half, Arsenal still adopted a guard attitude.

In the 53rd minute, Aguero received a cross from Hazard from the left and headed from close range. However, Arsenal goalkeeper Szczyn Snito crossed the bar and unfortunately missed the opportunity to score.

After that, Manchester City continued to organize and plan offensives, but they were unable to play a threatening offensive. Instead, it was Arsenal’s center Van Persie who frequently created threats during offenses and counterattacks.

Especially in the 70th minute, Alexander Song passed a through ball. After Van Persie received the ball from Manchester City’s right rib, he swung past Sabaleta to form a single shot. Struggling to save.

The Belgian goalkeeper made consecutive starts, conceding two goals at the Bernabéu in the last game, but he still performed bravely tonight.

This is also the most rare part of Courtois, the psychological quality is really very sturdy.

The so-called sturdy psychological quality does not mean that he doesn’t care about mistakes, but that even if he makes mistakes, he can quickly stabilize his mind and adjust, instead of being immersed in that kind of frustration.

And when the game progressed to the 75th minute, the score was still zero to zero.

Not only did Manchester City fail to suppress Arsenal, but with the decline in physical fitness, Arsenal frequently got the opportunity to attack.

Guardiola finally couldn’t hold back his breath, and once again offered his nirvana.

Change Su Dong!

…

Someone ridiculed that Guardiola’s on-the-spot command actually only had one move, and that was to change Soto.

To use a sentence from the Guardian: Every time Manchester City encounters a crisis, it must be when Su Dong is away, and usually Guardiola’s solution to the crisis is to put Su Dong on the court.

This sentence has been recognized by many fans, and some reporters even asked Guardiola in person: Can’t you be new? Be more vigorous, if we don’t change Su Dong, will we succeed?

Guardiola answered indifferently every time: I’m not stupid.

Does that have an effect every time you change Su Dong on the field?

The answer is not absolute 100%, but basically there is no problem.

It’s like Manchester City’s away game against Arsenal. Su Dong only came on the bench in the 75th minute, but only eight minutes later, Trippier jumped in on the right after one time, outside Arsenal’s 30-meter zone. On the right side, after receiving Thiago’s pass, he stopped the ball, glanced forward, and immediately sent a diagonal pass.

Trippier’s forty-five-degree diagonal pass, the angle is very difficult, and the landing point is very precise.

It’s the same this time.

The ball fell precisely to the right outside the small penalty area, while Su Dong got rid of Koscielny and plugged it in the back row. Only Vermalen could barely keep up with his speed and explosiveness, but the height of the two existed. With a certain gap, Su Dong took the lead.

Before Vermaelen could keep up, he could only stand on the spot, raised his head, and watched Su Dong rise into the sky like a god, almost covering the range of Vermaelen’s sight, forming a huge pressure.

Su Dong headed the ball from close range and hit a far corner, and the ball flew to the left of the goal.

Goalkeeper Szczesny was standing on the right side. When he reacted, he quickly ran out and saved with one hand, trying to block the ball out of the goal.

But Su Dong’s header was too tricky. Although Szczynski tried his best, he still failed to prevent the ball from reaching the net.

The ball was placed directly in the left side net and landed in Arsenal’s goal.

The referee’s whistle sounded an effective goal. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

At this time, Su Dong landed heavily, yelled, turned and rushed to the sidelines to celebrate the goal.

The Manchester City players on the court were all chased out one by one, and only the Arsenal players were left standing in the stadium dumbfoundedly, looking foolishly at the Manchester City players running out, especially the headed one. Sudong.

Ma Dan, is there such a player in this world?

Give him a little gap, he can create goals?

How do you play against such a player?

How could it be possible to win?

Especially Van Persie shook his head convincingly.

His spirit is also very high, but for Su Dong, he really doesn’t accept it.

People are really angry!
