The Glory of the Godfather - Chapter 1023
The injury time in the first half of the game was one minute.
The referee Oliver is already watching his watch, and he may blow the whistle at the end of the first half at any time.
David Silva was dribbling the ball, he looked at the situation in Aston Villa’s penalty area, and it was crowded with people.
David Silva pulled the football sideways and Modric came to interfere with him.
Silva knocked the football horizontally.
Yaya Touré took the ball, and he seemed ready to take a long shot.
Seeing that Yaya Toure was about to take a long shot, Clemente dropped Navas and rushed to try to block the long shot with his body.
Clement knew that as long as the long shot was blocked, the whistle at the end of the first half would sound.
Yaya Touré shot from a long distance, the football was blocked by Clemente’s back, and the football bounced, but it fell to Fernandinho’s feet.
Fernandinho made a low shot directly.
Ter Stegen was stunned by Yaya Touré’s long-range shot. At this time, seeing Fernandinho’s shot, he was shocked and hurriedly fell to the ground.
Ter Stegen failed to pounce on football.
However, the goal was not scored either.
“The post blocked the football!” the Birmingham commentator exclaimed in surprise.
Before the Aston Villa players had time to breathe a sigh of relief, the football hit the post and bounced back in front of the goal.
The faster and more flexible Aguero rushed up in front of the taller Senderos, and directly shot up.
“Aguero shoots angrily–!”
“Denial shot-goooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaal!”
“Goal scored! Aguero! He scored the football into the net! In the first half of the injury time, Manchester City scored! They were attacking the entire first half of the game, looking for goals, and now , Their efforts finally paid off!”
After the goal, Aguero was very excited. He threw his fists excitedly and ran to celebrate.
Manchester City’s teammates rushed up to hug Aguero, who was so excited, shouted and roared with him, venting the depressed mood of the entire first half.
…
Manchester City’s coach Pellegrini rushed out of the coaching bench and thrilled to celebrate the goal with his fist.
In the stands of the away team, the Manchester City fans also punched, shouted, and hugged each other. They were also suffocated for half the game. Now this goal can finally vent their depression and suffocation.
Lost the ball in the last minute of the first half, and Aston Villa was a little depressed up and down.
Fang Jue was also a little hot, and when two was zero, he sat firmly on the Diaoyutai, in a happy mood.
Now, the goal was lost at the end of the first half.
A two-to-zero lead is completely different from a two-to-one lead.
The former can make Aston Villa play more calmly and easily, while the latter has a more immediate sense of urgency.
Losing the ball at the last moment is really depressing.
Fang Jue shook his head depressed and turned to complain to his assistant, “Pellegrini’s luck is really good.”
Manchester City’s goal was indeed a bit of luck. Clemente blocked Yaya Touré’s shot. The football bounced back to the foot of the undefended Fernandinho. The goal post blocked the goal. , Actually fell at the feet of Aguero.
The Manchester City people are really lucky, as if this goal cannot be scored.
Of course, the Manchester City people don’t think so, they will think this is the best return for their crazy offensive throughout the first half of the game.
When the Manchester City people celebrated their goal, Oliver, the referee on duty of the game, blew the whistle at the end of the first half: the half-time score, Aston Villa led Manchester City two to one at home.
…
In the locker room during the intermission, the mood of the Aston Villa players was obviously affected by the loss of the ball at the end of the first half, and was a little depressed.
“Okay, don’t think about losing the ball…” Fang Jue clapped his hands. “The Manchester City people were lucky at the last moment. If they thought they could win us by luck, they would be wrong.”
“Luck ultimately belongs to the best performer. We played well in the first half of the game. The goddess of luck will always end up favoring us, to be precise, my team!” Fang Jue said with a smile, “If you don’t believe me, you can ask. Ask Clemente, oops, I played a game with Ibiza and the Spaniards in La Liga in the Second Division. In that game I simply thought my team was the luckiest person in the world.”
“I can prove it.” Clemente said with a smile, “the other party gave us all kinds of mistakes, how did we shoot, the other side is all kinds of posts and beams.”
Everyone laughed, even though they hadn’t watched that game, many people still heard about it.
Seeing that the atmosphere in the locker room was normal, Fang Jue began to deploy the second half of the game.
“In the first half of the game, Manchester City’s offense seemed fierce. In fact, apart from Yaya Toure’s low shot and Aguero’s goal at the last minute, they didn’t have many real scoring opportunities.” Fang Jue Said.
“We didn’t have many chances to score, but we only had two great opportunities, and we seized them. This is the victory in offensive efficiency!” Fang Jue gave the players a thumbs up, “Good job. I am proud of you!”
“In the second half of the game, Manchester City’s morale after regaining a goal must be very strong.”
“After the start of the second half, Manchester City is most likely to seize the opportunity to attack.”
“They will continue to launch a fierce attack on our goal.”
“At this time, everyone must remain vigilant and hold on to their offensive.”
“Sendros and Thiago Silva changed positions, Senderos defended Dzeko, and Silva defended Aguero.” Fang Jue adjusted the defensive positions of the two central defenders.
In comparison, Thiago Silva’s speed and reaction are faster than Senderos, especially turning around faster.
In the first half of the game, Senderos defense Aguero was a bit difficult, the Argentine is too flexible, fast, and explosive.
“The fifteen minutes after the start of the second half is very important. We have to defend well and contain City’s offensive.”
“After fifteen minutes of the game, if Manchester City cannot score, their morale will be affected, and the next ten minutes will be deadlocked.”
“At this time, our goal is not to score goals, but to control the rhythm of the game as much as possible.”
“Control the rhythm of the game in our own hands, and as the game time goes by, the Manchester City people will become more and more impatient, this is our opportunity.”
Manchester City’s locker room.
Pellegrini is also explaining the tactics of the Manchester City players in the second half of the game.
“…We must strengthen our offensive at the beginning of the second half. In the first half, our offensive quality was too low!” Pellegrini relentlessly criticized the team’s performance. “The offensive quality of the first half game must be in your mind. Clearly, this will not work, we must improve the offensive efficiency!”
“The two wingers, Sabaletta and Krish have to be more active.”
“Yaya Toure should be more active on the offensive end.”
“Navas, you were a little silent on the right. You have to run in the second half and put pressure on Aston Villa’s left to suppress Milner’s defense and offensive performance.”
…
At this moment, the commentators are also commenting on the performance of both sides in the first half.
“Aston Villa showed us the best a team can do in terms of offensive efficiency.” He Wei exclaimed, “Man City should learn more from their opponents in today’s game.”
Zhang Lu smiled and said, “Aston Villa’s offense, everyone is boasting, I won’t say much, I want to boast about their defense.”
“Aston Villa’s defense is very good. Manchester City’s offensive thunder is heavy and the rain is small. This is not because Manchester City’s offensive is not good. On the contrary, Manchester City’s offensive power is very strong. This most directly shows that Aston Villa is defensive. What a great job at one end.”
The second half of the game began.
The situation is just as Fang Jue expected.
Manchester City launched an indiscriminate bombing, trying to use the momentum at the beginning of the game to tie the score as quickly as possible.
Aston Villa, who was particularly emphasized and urged by Fang Jue during the intermission, is ready to face this kind of indiscriminate bombing by the Manchester City people.
Facing the offensive of the Manchester City people, although a little passive and even a little embarrassed at certain moments, Aston Villa’s overall defensive formation was not chaotic. They always firmly held the line of defense and were not successfully penetrated by Manchester City.
In the face of Aston Villa’s tough defense, it is difficult for Manchester City to penetrate Aston Villa’s defense through organizational penetration. They began to become impatient and began to try more long-range shots.
Facing Thiago Silva’s defense, Aguero tried to change directions without finding a breakthrough. He knocked the football to Navas, who drove the ball along the side to the club for a while. Choose to play the ball to the penalty area.
Dzeko grabbed a point in front of the goal, Senderos defended him, and the football was pushed out of the penalty area by Senderos.
Modric wanted to stop the ball and observe it before instigating an attack. His ball was intercepted by Fernandinho and Modric fell to the ground.
Fang Jue raised his hands on the sidelines and shouted. He thought it was a foul, and Fernandinho fouled Modric.
However, referee Oliver doesn’t seem to think so.
Afterwards, Fernandinho passed the ball to David Silva, who, after continuously holding the ball slightly near the top arc of the penalty area and attracting Aston Villa’s defensive attention, suddenly dropped the ball. The football was knocked to Clichy who came up to meet him.
The French defender crossed the middle, and Fernandinho hit the ball directly, which was a long shot.
After the football was blocked by Milner with his feet stretched out, a refraction occurred and the football flew directly to the goal.
Fortunately, after the shot was blocked, the speed of the football was not fast, and Ter Stegen was slightly embarrassed to hit the football to the bottom line:
Manchester City’s corner kick.
…
Dzeko received a corner kick from Sabaletta, and he jumped high in the penalty area with a header.
It’s a pity that under Senderos’s close defense, he only touched the ball a little bit, unable to top the strength, and the football was picked off from the air by goalkeeper Ter Stegen.
Subsequently, the Aston Villa goalkeeper quickly ran to the edge of the penalty area, throwing the ball vigorously to launch a quick counterattack.
Modric went through the ball to Sanchez, and the Chilean star suddenly drove the ball through the frontcourt to break through the defense of two Manchester City players.
Vardy followed up with a long shot from outside the penalty area.
The football is slightly higher than the crossbar.
Fang Jue applauded from the sidelines, indicating that the team’s counterattack was good.
…
Navas took the ball in midfield, and Sanchez was pestering him next to him.
Navas was a little unhappy and helpless.
According to his understanding, the offensive player broke through when his opponent broke through, and would not be obsessed with counter-grabbing and entanglement. However, Sanchez is different. He has always entangled Navas like a brown sugar, which makes Manchester City a fast The attacking opportunity was not successful.
Seeing that Navas was entangled, Aguero retreated to help.
Navas immediately passed the ball.
As soon as Aguero received the ball, he was dropped to the ground and the ball was also taken away.
“Foul!” This time the angry protester was replaced by Manchester City coach Pellegrini.
Manchester City fans are also shouting ‘foul! ’
However, the referee Oliver did not say the slightest, he shook his finger at the protesting Manchester City player Yaya Toure, meaning that there was no foul.
“Counterattack!” Fang Jue got up from his seat and looked at the court. He was looking forward to the team’s counterattack.
This is when Manchester City was attacking and was suddenly intercepted ~www.mtlnovel.com~ Their defense can be said to be in chaos.
After several consecutive passes, the football reached the foot of Sanchez in front.
Sanchez passed the football to Lewandowski, who came over, the Polish center made a gesture to pull the ball and turned, but knocked the football to Modric who came over.
Modric didn’t stop the ball, he directly kicked a straight thrust like a scalpel, and the football passed through the junction of Fernandinho and Sabaletta.
“Mane!”
“Counterattack! Aston Villa’s counterattack is here again!”
“Breakthrough! Mane is fast, he is dribbling the ball, this is Aston Villa’s opportunity!” The Birmingham commentator exclaimed excitedly.
Mane did not dribble the ball along the side, but directly dribbled the ball inward and cut inward.
After this attracted Manchester City’s remaining defensive players were forced to meet, he chose to push the football diagonally.
On the right, Aston Villa’s full-back Kyle Walker came up.
The England international came directly with a strong push.
The football sticks to the turf, and the ball quickly rolls towards the goal.
This time, Joe Hart’s performance is still good, I saw him quickly lower, stretched his foot to block, the football bounced.
“Valdy!”
“There is no one guarding Vardy!”
“The door is empty!”
Kompany was attracted by Lewandowski.
Demichelis was still chasing back breathlessly.
Clichy just ran back, he was defending Sanchez’s move.
At this time, other Manchester City defensive players were pulled away, and Vardy in front of the goal was unguarded.
Then in Joe Hart’s almost desperate eyes, Vardy in front of the goal almost relaxed his forehead and drove the football into the empty goal.
Three to one!
Aston Villa once again extended the lead to two goals.
