103. Play fifty big boards each

"Aguero...pushed the shot from the back! The ball entered!" Before the commentators' commentators fell, the Manchester City fans in front of the TV were already excited.

The deafening cheers were heard in the bar where Manchester City fans gathered in the East District of Manchester City, not to mention the stadium. Manchester City fans yelled with their best efforts. The broadcaster of the Etihad Stadium broadcasted the names of the goalkeepers, and the fans sang Aguero.

"Great!" Mansour clapped vigorously, with a happy smile on his face.

As the nominal owner of the team, although the game has been playing calmly from the beginning to now, he is still very concerned about it. His heart has fluctuated with the team's performance. At this moment, Aguero is naturally happy to win the lead for the team.

"Excellent cooperation! Aguero's goal gave Manchester City the first lead at home! Aguero spent £38 million when he transferred to Manchester City last summer. Now it seems that this deal is worth the money. Aguero scored 20 league goals for the team last season, and has contributed 10 goals to the team this season. It is less than half of the league. Aguero is expected to be able to complete the number of goals last season!" Junge commented.

"De Bruyne's half-high pass is very distinctive. His passing speed is very fast, which is a big test for both defensive and offensive players. They need to accurately judge the landing point! Aguero's judgment on the landing point is excellent...." Jun Ge highly praised Aguero and De Bruyne, and said something to praise them in front of the camera.

Ferguson's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot. Others wouldn't understand what was going on. Only he knew that he had a mistake just now because he accidentally made a fuss and was not lucky. Rooney lost the ball in the frontcourt and gave Manchester City an opportunity to take advantage of it.

Ferdinand regretted it vaguely. He had been trying to force De Bruyne to the corner just now. He really thought that De Bruyne was afraid that he would not dare to go directly. Who would have thought that De Bruyne had another plan and was waiting for his teammates to get in. De Bruyne made this choice and would definitely believe that his teammates moved fast enough, and Manchester United would definitely not be able to keep up.

If Ferdinand had a tough attitude, even if he had a foul, he would not have found such an opportunity.

But Ferdinand was hesitant, he was not young anymore, and De Bruyne was good at controlling the ball and dribbled. He was worried that his mistake in robbing would allow De Bruyne to pass him and kill the penalty area.

Ferdinand's mistake was not a mistake, but he himself was a little guilty.

"Manchester United needs to be careful!" Jun Ge teased, "So far this season, Manchester City's leading game has never brought other teams back!"

He knew everything, and Ferguson naturally knew, so Ferguson's face looked so ugly.

After a long celebration, Manchester City players returned to the half and the game continued.

With one goal in hand, Wen Sheng could not have tried to attack Manchester United, and Manchester United did not panic after conceding a goal. Ferguson did not dare to be naughty anymore, so he could only fight back with peace of mind.

The game between the two sides returned to a lukewarm situation. Manchester City always controlled carefully and advanced slowly. Manchester United advocated a quick counterattack after getting the ball, and passed the ball very quickly. Valencia and Ashley Young, two wing players, always tried to use the speed advantage to make breakthroughs after holding the ball, but the effect of doing so was really not very good. Wan Yama and Toure, Manchester City, have a good awareness of restoring defense, and can often appear at critical moments to block the opponent, resulting in Manchester United returning many times.

Wen Sheng was still standing on the sidelines and yelling, directing the team's defensive offense. Manchester City has always been playing the backcourt health plan, trying to lure Manchester United forward pressure, but where can Ferguson be fooled like this?! Four people forced it in the frontcourt. Manchester City could not see that no one was pressing and still working in the backcourt, so they had to push the ball to Manchester United's halftime. Only then would Manchester United make a defensive interception.

Manchester United is actually in a bad state, especially in the defense. The two central defenders Ferdinand and Evans are as stable as rocks and rarely make mistakes, which makes Manchester City have to use more long shots on the perimeter. It is difficult to get another one in this way.

Evans was a big colander last season, and when people and goals were often missed, he made great progress this season under Ferguson's training. With Vidic's absence, he could beat Smalling and Jones to become Ferdinand's partner.

Seeing Evans clearing the ball and staring at the person as if he was decent, Wen Sheng was not only a little suspicious, "Isn't this guy a big colander?! Why is he so fierce today?!"

The team's offense looks decent, but in fact the opponent's defense is tight and aggressive, which makes Wen Sheng helpless, and it depends on the player's personal performance.

In the 31st minute, Nasri, who was in poor form, buried another pit for his teammates. He did not get the ball early under the double-team of Evra and Ashley Young, which caused the ball to be cut off again. Sabaleta had no choice but to be unable to keep up with Ashley Young's speed and could only make a foul behind the scenes. Atkinson was not polite this time and directly gave Sabaleta a yellow card.

Atkinson's move aroused Wensheng's strong dissatisfaction again.

"Our players immediately received a yellow card warning when they made two small moves. Shouldn't Carrick get a yellow card after tackled De Bruyne?!" Wensheng began to question Mike Dean again, expressing his doubts.

After making a gesture, less than 5 minutes later, in the 35th minute, Aguero tripped in the penalty area and asked Evans to find a remark. He complained to Mike Dean again that the ball should be a penalty kick.

Ferguson did not allow him to be arrogant, and came uninvited, and started a verbal battle with Wensheng. Mike Dean was obviously impatient by these two people and invited Atkinson directly. Atkinson gave each other a yellow card without saying a word, warning them not to leave the coaching area.

"Haha, are you happy now?!" Wensheng sneered at Ferguson.

"Hmph!" Ferguson snorted coldly and left.

Manchester United didn't have their best chance in this game until the 39th minute of the first half, and it was also a chance to counterattack quickly. Toure was too careless and was overwhelmed by Ashley, and then crossed across the middle. Rooney kept kicking the ball outside the penalty area and shot directly. The ball was cleared by Navas on Van Persie. Van Persie couldn't adjust, kicked the ball, and failed to enter the empty goal.

Wen Sheng was almost scared when he was on the sidelines.

"Concentrate! What the hell is it?!"

Wen Sheng scolded the players on the court, and he really thought he was sure to win, but he actually made such a mistake.

Ferguson was extremely disappointed. The first half was almost over. Manchester United created very few opportunities. There was no such good opportunity as before. Now if you don’t seize it, you may be gone.
