The Green Superstar - Chapter 522
According to normal thinking, after more than a week of replenishment, the state of Manchester City’s main players should be improved.
But when they came to Anfield in the 23rd round of the league, the defense team started their performance.
From the defensive midfielder to the defender, to the goalkeeper, Liverpool was rushed to the ground!
Klopp understands that playing Manchester City in the Premier League is not a battle for the title at all. The Premier League champion is already in Manchester City’s pocket.
Liverpool are fighting for points, and keeping the top four positions is enough.
In the first half of the game, Manchester City was smashed into a faceless face.
In the second half of this confrontation, Liverpool showed courage at home, swept wildly in the midfield, and launched a fast attack when they seized the opportunity.
For the first time this season, Manchester City was unable to establish an advantage in the game situation.
So a shocking battle was presented before the eyes of the global audience.
Tang Hong carried the front line and reaped frantically in the front, and the defense line led by Otamendi sent people crazy in the backcourt.
The trident of Mane, Salah, and Firmino showed great power.
Tang Hong rushed to break through the frontcourt and scored again, and finally scored directly with a free kick.
When the 90-minute game came to an end, the numbers on the scoreboard made the coaches of both teams feel uncomfortable.
5:5!
Without Tang Hong’s last-minute goal, Liverpool would have broken the Manchester City league unbeaten gold!
Guardiola is depressed, the two-billion-pound defense is so brittle that it has been dried out of the flooding effect.
The smell of napkins from Stones to Walker spread throughout England!
Guardiola criticized the defense line, not just making a show in front of the media, the locker room closed the door and furious, and the defense line was chilling.
What Guardiola means in and out of his words is: We are attacking unparalleled in the world!
Not requiring a line of defense is also indispensable, but it is absolutely unacceptable to explode thunder at a critical moment!
If only one person explodes thunder, the Manchester City line of defense is more like a string of firecrackers. If you click one, it will detonate across the board!
If I dare to blow up like this, I will replace you all!
Guardiola really has such confidence now.
Although the top defenders are now also scarce, look at the goods on the Manchester City defense line. How can there be “top” quality?
If everyone pulls the hips together, that’s not the case. The performance of the key defense is too far from the performance of the striker, which can easily cause a sense of crisis in the back defense.
It seems that changing a line of defense casually does not affect the strength of Manchester City.
After all, Manchester City dominates the ball for a long time in the game, and the center and front are the protagonists.
The Manchester City line of defense is in danger, and has to work hard to perform well.
The next step is really steady.
Defeated Newcastle United 3-1 at home.
4:0 at home to slaughter West Brom.
Draw with Burnley 1:1 away.
5:1 at home to slaughter Leicester City.
The Champions League knockout matches are coming as scheduled.
Manchester City were a guest to challenge Basel for a small test, and easily staged a massacre at 4:0 away and locked the quarterfinals tickets in advance.
Back in the league, Manchester City visited the Emirates Stadium as a guest, Arsenal resisted at home, but could not stop Manchester City from crushing.
3:0!
Arsenal may not even be able to keep fourth this season, Wenger has come to the brink of dismissal under pressure.
Driven fast in the middle of the week, the team’s state has dropped, Manchester City at home against the defending champion Chelsea, whose performance has declined significantly this season.
Chelsea, who was passively beaten by the audience, lost decently in the end.
1:0.
Manchester City turned around and beat Arsenal again at the new Wembley Stadium over the weekend.
League Cup final.
Manchester City beat Arsenal 3:0.
In this final, Tang Hong came off the bench, but in the end he didn’t even appear.
Mixed another champion.
Tang Hong still didn’t play in the second round of the Champions League 1/8 final.
Manchester City lost to Basel 1:2 at home, but this does not affect the overall situation.
Manchester City successfully advanced to the quarter-finals of the Champions League, fighting with Liverpool.
If there is anything wrong, it is that Manchester City are out of the FA Cup quarterfinals.
But the team is now starting to focus completely on the European war, followed by the league, and the FA Cup being eliminated is just a matter of sleep and forget about it.
In the 30th round of the league, Manchester City defeated Stoke City without a **** 2:0 away.
After 30 rounds, 27 wins and 3 draws are enough to go down in history!
FIFA game day is coming in March.
Tang Hong stays at home to maintain training, hoping to face the Champions League quarter-finals in a better state.
In his spare time, he and his two children play football on the court.
Bai Mu brought some juice to greet the two children to add some water. Tang Hong sat on the floor, Bai Mu knelt beside him, and suddenly asked Tang Hong, “What’s wrong with Chen Manhong?”
“what happened?”
“You do not know?”
Tang Hong looked at Bai Mu helplessly. The latter smiled and said: “There are many more sports cars in the house. Last month, she returned to Tianhai and gave a lot of precious jewelry to everyone in the family. She said you bought it.
But we all know that you can’t buy these things, otherwise the house would be full. “
Tang Hong glanced at Chen Manhong, who was operating with a tablet computer while sitting under the parasol on the side of the stadium. He asked Bai Mu, “Do you know what she is doing now?”
Bai Mu looked back and found that Sun Rou was also beside Chen Manhong talking enthusiastically.
She shook her head.
Tang Hong whispered to her: “She is retaliating for consumption, and is now discussing with French ship manufacturers about ordering cruises.”
Bai Mu looked stunned. Tang Hong couldn’t help but kissed the immortal face and the surprised look.
Tang Jinyi scratched his face with his fingers and said, “Ashamed!”
Tang Hong hugged him and kissed him on the face. Tang Yue ran over to hold Tang Hong’s face with both hands, kissed Tang Hong’s face with a serious expression, and then turned and walked to continue playing.
After Bai Mu reacted, he first glanced at the two children, and then asked Tang Hong: “Cruises are not much cheaper than planes, right?”
Tang Hong nodded and said, “Well, yes, she is going to buy a sea fortress. She has a name in mind, and it’s Jinyue.”
“how much is it?”
“2000000000.”
“So expensive?”
“Dollar.”
“Crazy!”
“It’s a lot worse.”
“What’s so much difference?”
“I gave her 5 billion euros at her disposal, which is far from her spending.”
Bai Mu suddenly thought, as if he understood something.
Lin Xingyu seemed to have changed cars and bought another mansion earlier.
This style is similar to the situation when Tang Hong was sent to the island a few years ago.
“You made money again on the projects you invested in before?”
Tang Hong had nothing to hide.
“Ok.”
“How much did you earn?”
“Make the world’s richest man.”
Bai Mu was stunned again, but then moved his position next to Tang Hong, holding his arm and smirking.
“Oh, I suddenly felt that my vision back then was really good.”
Tang Hong asked her, “How do you think so much money should be spent?”
Bai Mu smiled and opened his mouth, but then fell into distress, and said, “Yes, how do you spend it? What did you plan? You can’t lie in the bank, right?”
It seems that more money and less money have absolutely no effect on their current quality of life.
Tang Hong shrugged and said, “Try marrying another eighteen wives. Whenever you ****, give the children one cent.”
Bai Mu glared at him and said, “Be serious.”
He really wants to marry 18 more wives, it doesn’t matter whether he has made the world’s richest man…
Tang Hong sighed softly.
“I didn’t worry about the detailed plan. Chen Manhong will invest the money in various industries around the world, both in entities and in finance.
I gave her 5 billion euros at her disposal, and it is estimated that after she ordered the cruise, she didn’t know how to spend it.
5 billion euros are invested in charity in China.
2 billion euros plans to build 1,000 small stadiums in China, under unified company management, and charge football fans a minimum threshold fee so that they can have a place to play.
Another 3 billion euros will be invested in the Tianhai Xinxing Football Club with a shareholding situation, focusing on the construction of football youth training schools. “
Bai Mu nodded while listening, and finally thought about it and said, “It seems that the valuation of Xinxing Group is not as rich as you.”
Tang Hong said casually: “In the long run, what I have now is dead money, but the future development of New Star Group has more room for appreciation.”
“Then do you have a plan for the future of Xinxing Group?”
“No, I don’t understand these things, and I don’t have a say.”
“You do not understand?”
Bai Mu was angry and laughed.
But Tang Hong may not really understand it when I want to come. To give him a financial statement for him to look at may require someone to explain to him many professional terms.
……
At the end of the FIFA game day, Manchester City defeated Everton 3:1 away in the 32nd round of the league.
Guardiola dispatched all the main players on the battlefield, but after 60 minutes, they replaced one after another.
He needs the team to have the state of the game, and then go all out to face the midweek Champions League quarter-finals.
Towards the end of the season, it is difficult to say which team is under more pressure.
In the English Civil War between Manchester City and Liverpool, the former won the championship ahead of schedule, and the latter only needs to protect the top four in the league, and the focus is bound to be in the Champions League.
After all, if the Champions League is out, there is still room to shift the focus back to the league.
In the first leg of the Champions League quarter-final, Liverpool played at home against Manchester City.
The battle started at Anfield Stadium.
With the experience of 5:5 in the second half of the league, Liverpool’s play has improved, and the defensive counterattack has been superimposed on the basis of a frantic midfield sweep to create trouble for Manchester City.
Manchester City also appeared a little cautious.
At the critical moment, Guardiola began to emphasize his passing tactics.
It seems that the celebrity marshal has determined that a style of play is unsolvable!
But I never thought that if Barcelona did not have Messi, there would be a lot of games that Barcelona passed at the peak of control. Once it was a key game, then the record would not be so beautiful and there would not be so many championships.
So this game is not right in a style of painting!
Liverpool broke Manchester City’s defense with two quick counterattacks in a row!
Before the first half was over, Manchester City fell behind by two goals!
The whole world understands it.
It’s not that Manchester City’s defense line is dwindling, but the simple strength is not enough!
For 90% of the teams playing in the Premier League, Manchester City’s defense is strong, but it happens that the Manchester City defense has become a younger brother when it encounters a sharp attacking team.
Mane-Firmino-Salah’s attack firepower is second only to Manchester City in the Premier League!
They are strong enough.
