Chapter 90 A good show?

 "Joe Hart hugged the football, and Demichelis used his body to block the hammer-like attack!

This is too dangerous. If Diafolsco does not close his feet, Demichelis is at risk of being seriously injured!

Let us applaud Diafolsco for his competitiveness!"

Andy Gray took the lead in applauding Diafelsco's behavior in the live broadcast room.

The same is true for the Manchester City fans at the scene, although people always call football a war in a sense.

But what the vast majority of fans want to see is a wonderful game, not a player in great pain after being injured and falling to the ground.

Regarding the behavior of observing sportsmanship, whether it is the opponent's players or our own players, they are worthy of respect from the fans of both sides.

After expressing their gratitude to Diafolsco, the Blue Moon fans also naturally applauded Demichelis. The courage and responsibility of the Argentine "Marshal" are really admirable.

The fans were sending praises, but Guardiola's face was ashen on the sidelines.

Substitution! Less than ten minutes into the game, Manchester City took advantage of the dead ball opportunity to make a decisive substitution.

Fernando goes off and Fernandinho comes on. Not only that, Fernandinho also tells the players on the field to change the formation.

David Silvane took over the attacking midfielder position, Sterling and Jesus Navas re-formed the left and right wings, and Gundogan organized the backcourt.

Manchester City changed their formation to a 4-2-1-3 formation to improve their defensive capabilities as much as possible while maintaining the intensity of their attack.

When the game restarted, Joe Hart kicked the ball into West Ham United's half with a big kick. Manchester City took the initiative to hand over the ball to West Ham United and expressed its gratitude to Diafelsco for his mercy.<

/p>

Of course, this is also a sign of their confidence in themselves. It’s just a lost goal. With our lineup, we can come back sooner or later.

When West Ham United's fast-break counterattack hit the frontcourt, Manchester City's defense, which had experienced two lessons, quickly retreated and assisted each other in defense, determined not to allow West Ham United to penetrate their waistline and wing again.

Opportunity.

West Ham United's midfielders saw Manchester City's suddenly tighter defense and did not break out. After several consecutive kicks from the outside of Manchester City's penalty area.

Payet, who reached the top of the arc in the Manchester City penalty area, suddenly made a cold arrow, and a beautiful volley shot the ball very fast, straight to the upper right corner of the Manchester City goal.

Fortunately, this time Joe Hart was focused and pushed the ball over the baseline in time.

This sudden last-minute kick made Blue Moon fans tremble with fear, but they were all in danger.

The West Ham fans at the scene sighed unconsciously.

Joe Hart, can't you let us be fooled by one more thing?!

In the ensuing corner kick attack, West Ham United did not perform well. Looking at Manchester City's gradually strengthening defense, West Ham United's players immediately retreated and resumed their old defensive counterattack.

At this time, the Hammers, because Payet was still in the formation, under his control, West Ham United played in a very orderly manner, both offensively and defensively.

In addition, their head coach Bilic is also a coach who pays more attention to tactical practicality, so West Ham United's style of play is simple and practical, with a measured advance and retreat.

On defense, traditional passive space compression and static defense are used. Every defensive player on the defensive line runs actively and complements each other's positions for zone defense.

During the offense, instigating fast breaks relies on long passes or side advances. There will never be hesitation and procrastination in the backcourt. The main style is fast and direct.

Manchester City, whose defense has stabilized now, will naturally not give West Ham United a chance easily, but their offense cannot find a good chance under West Ham United's intensive defense.

Now Sterling and Jesus Navas are unable to tear apart West Ham United's two defense lines on the wing by their individual abilities.

David Silva was also closely guarded by the opponent's double midfielders. Even if Gundogan stepped in to help, the opponent's midfielders and frontcourt players would chase and intercept. Manchester City's offensive line fell into the opponent's crowd tactics.

Among them.

The limited offensive manpower cannot reach the personal ability of a single soldier to explode.

Manchester City can only rely on its better ball control ability and the flash of inspiration of Gundogan and David Silva to find a chance to score in the positional battle.

Time passed slowly, and the Manchester City players, who had been besieged for a long time but could not find any opportunities, gradually became anxious.

Seeing that the first half of the game is about to pass, the offense has not improved at all, which of course makes them unbearable.

Especially since they had the idea that they could easily penetrate each other at the beginning. How wonderful the idea was at the beginning, but now it seems so ridiculous.

There are no underdogs in the Premier League, it’s really not just talk!

At the beginning of the season, West Ham United was certainly not that simple a team to defeat two traditional strong teams, Arsenal and Liverpool.

It's just that the new season has been smooth sailing, but the Manchester City players, who have repeatedly defeated strong opponents, are indeed a bit underestimated. This also sounded the alarm for Guardiola:

The current Manchester City is not so strong that it can easily defeat the middle and upper reaches of the Premier League with a half-main and half-substitute lineup.

In the 41st minute of the first half, Manchester City ushered in the most opportunity attack in the entire first half.

Sterling directly rushed forward from the left wing, and David Silva's movement restrained him, causing the defense on this side to move inside.

Sterling dribbled all the way down and turned inside into the West Ham United penalty area. He glanced at Aguero's position and passed the ball vigorously towards the center of the West Ham United penalty area.

Before that, Gundogan had already moved forward. He was in the front and middle of West Ham United's penalty area. After dribbling in to the left rib area of ​​the penalty area, he decisively knocked the ball back in an inverted triangle.

After Aguero got rid of the defense of West Ham United center back Tomkins through a clever movement, he stopped and buckled past another center back Winston Reid who was filling in.

Then, with no one marking him, he pushed the ball directly towards the lower right corner of West Ham United's goal.

"Let's take a look at this attack. Sterling and David Silva's beautiful wing cooperation broke through West Ham United's left defense. Gundogan received the ball at the front of the penalty area! Beautiful inverted triangle meeting

Do it!

Aguero got rid of Tomkins' defense, dunked another central defender, and hit the goal!"

But after all, because he spent too long in the penalty area, West Ham United goalkeeper Adrian predicted the angle of the shot.

After a sideways save, he blocked Aguero's shot with one palm.

"It's a pity. Although Aguero's passing and getting rid of was very exciting, it also gave goalkeeper Adrian time to react. The players of West Ham United successfully defended their goal!"

"This season, Aguero has not really found the feeling of shooting again. Manchester City's main goal scoring tasks have all been handed over to Zhao Jinge. This is obviously a bad situation!"

"If Manchester City wants to go further this season, they cannot leave all the scoring responsibility to Zhao Jinge. Aguero and Sterling should also step up and shoulder the scoring task.

Moreover, in terms of midfield organization, the cooperation between Gundogan and David Silva is still insufficient in terms of tacit understanding. Gundogan still needs more training to adapt to Manchester City's rhythm!"

At the end of the first half, Guardiola made a decisive substitution during the break. Zhao Jinge came on to replace the inactive Jesus Navas, and Manchester City reorganized their offensive line.

At the beginning of the second half of the game, the two sides changed sides and fought again.

After Zhao Jinge came on the field, Manchester City's midfielders and frontcourt players seemed to have found a backbone, and Manchester City's offense began to launch frequently on the right.

In the 48th minute of the game, David Silva advanced with the ball in the middle and quickly hit Zhao Jinge on the right to meet him. Qianqianqianqiu

After stopping the ball, Zhao Jinge cut inside and changed direction, reaching the right side of the West Ham United penalty area, and then fired a blast without hesitation, wanting to try out the feeling of shooting from a long distance today.

Although I was just trying out the feel of my feet, the quality of this shot was still very high.

The ball was very fast, but unfortunately it was a little too focused on the angle, and the football hit the goalpost and bounced off the baseline.

Although no goal was scored, Manchester City fans still felt excited.

Zhao Jinge almost scored with his first shot on the field. If he hits a few more shots after that, wouldn't he be able to overtake the score immediately?

With good expectations, Manchester City fans set off a roar of cheering that echoed throughout the stadium, but something that shocked them was about to happen.

A minute later, West Ham United launched a counterattack.

Moses quickly moved forward after receiving the ball from behind the center circle, and soon he met Fernandinho.

Feiniao was not in good condition today. He stepped forward to press, but Moses and Payet, who came to respond, hit the wall and rushed over.

Moses moved forward to the right side of Manchester City's penalty area. Without waiting for other players on Manchester City's defense to cover up, he sent a through ball right into the middle of the penalty area.

Payet arrived in the middle of the penalty area in time, received the ball and shot. The ball was not fast but at a tricky angle, and the football rolled into the goal against the inside of the right post.

After the football rolled into the goal, Joe Hart's save came belatedly.

West Ham United fans became the most excited people in the world at this moment!

Because their home team accomplished what even Barcelona could not do, leading Manchester City at home by two goals at the Etihad Stadium.

"Goal!!!! After changing the defensive players in the midfield, Fernandinho failed to defend Manchester City's midfield defense. The clever cooperation of Moses and Payet dismembered Manchester City's defensive system!

Payet scores another victory for West Ham United!

No one could have imagined that the arrogant Manchester City would fall behind West Ham United 0-2 at home today!

Hey, hey, hey, God! You are not kidding me! Who can believe that this scene is happening at the Etihad Stadium now!

It’s incredible! Manchester City played like they were sleepwalking today! Isn’t it? Jamie! This is simply outrageous!”

Andy Gray, who has gradually become a fan of Zhao Jinge this season, really can't stand Manchester City's poor performance.

"Oh, don't worry too much about Andy. As long as your favorite Zhao is on the court, Manchester City will be fine! Right? Maybe Manchester City can stage a counterattack?! Isn't it? Andy? Haha!



Carragher replied with a smile, his words full of sarcasm.

As a die-hard Liverpool fan, he doesn't care about Manchester City's life or death. Rather than Manchester City's counterattack, he hopes West Ham United can put on a good show!
