Football: God-level striker, all teammates lie down

The ball was taken out of play.

Manchester City picked the side, and Monchengladbach had the ball.

After the opening, Manchester City's frontcourt players began to press consciously.

And Monchengladbach did not retreat to their own half.

After Xhaka got the ball, he made a long pass to Traore.

Traore and Johnson's ability to break through the wing is quite strong.

Just met Guardiola's three-back system, which made them more comfortable.

Traore's strong body, after a burst, Manchester City's defense had a very big problem.

The three-center-back system is like this, after shrinking, it gives the wing players a very big chance.

Guardiola still willfully arranged this lineup in the face of a team like Monchengladbach that has a very strong wing attack, which puzzled many commentators.

Kolarov stumbled and couldn't stop Traore.

Traore drove straight into the penalty area along the bottom line.

Manchester City's defense was in a hurry.

While Kompany made up for the position, Traore kicked the ball to the middle.

Traore's shot was very poor, but he was very good at breaking through and passing, and he was an enhanced version of Cunha.

Otamendi was distracted again when defending...

Otamendi has a tough style and a certain level of passing, but he often rushes to grab the ball rashly or loses his concentration.

This time, he didn't see the defense in time.

Seeing the ball being passed into the penalty area, Otamendi started half a beat late, and when he kicked it, Rafael fell directly to the ground!

Rafael fell to the ground, and the referee did not stop the game immediately.

The players of Monchengladbach immediately shouted and complained to the referee.

Otamendi immediately grabbed the ball and wanted to launch a counterattack.

After kicking the ball out, the referee blew the whistle to stop the game.

Otamendi saw this situation and knew that something bad was going to happen. He ran to the referee and tried his best to explain.

The referee had a blank expression and listened to the voice coming from the headset.

Soon, the referee ran to the sidelines to watch VAR.

Zhao Yi was standing near the midfield and he didn't see the specific situation.

But VAR intervened, and it was obvious that the problem was more serious.

It was just the beginning of the game, and Manchester City's defense made such a serious mistake.

It was going to be bad!

"Look at the replay this time... Otamendi... did kick Rafael's heel!

The referee's vision was blocked, so he couldn't confirm it at the first time.

VAR intervened... It was basically a penalty!

This time, it wasn't all Otamendi's problem, Manchester City's defense was too thin.

Traore was like entering his own backyard.

The three-back system, Manchester City's players don't seem to be used to it yet."

"Such an important game, Guardiola is doing something again... Isn't it a bit too arrogant? You can try out the lineup in the League Cup or FA Cup!"

After watching the replay.

Turned and walked towards the court.

Raised his arms and made a VAR gesture.

Next, a whistle sounded, and one hand pointed at the penalty spot.

This may be the most handsome moment of the referee.

It's also time for the Speed ​​​​Lei brothers to revel.

In the first minute of the game, Monchengladbach got a penalty at home!

"Manchester City got off to a bad start. Just one minute into the game, Monchengladbach got a penalty!

And Monchengladbach seems to have found a way to deal with Manchester City. If Manchester City's defense remains the same, Monchengladbach will likely get more opportunities in the future!" Teacher Zhan Lu sighed.

Manchester City's defense needs to be strengthened in the winter window!

Otherwise, it will be difficult to go far in the Champions League.

In the first game, the big win over Juventus may have obscured Manchester City's defense problems.

Rafael stood at the penalty spot and took a deep breath.

There are no cowards in front of the twelve yards, and everyone on the goal line is a hero.

Penalties are the most challenging for players' psychological qualities.

Joe Hart jumped twice on the goal line.

Zhao Yi stood outside the penalty area and pointed his left index finger to the left side of the goal.

Before every game, Zhao Yi would carefully watch the opponent's game videos and data.

He didn't want to command veteran players like Joe Hart, as this behavior would likely make Joe Hart dissatisfied.

After all, Zhao Yi is an outsider in the field of goalkeeping.

However, Zhao Yi now feels that he should start to take some responsibilities.

Joe Hart saw Zhao Yi's gesture, he had no expression, staring at Rafael.

Rafael started running and shot a heavy cannon!

Joe Hart rushed to the left side of the goal!

It was not a half-high ball that the goalkeeper liked, but a low ball.

However, because Joe Hart reacted in advance, the left

With his palm open, he slapped the ball out!

Otamendi rushed into the penalty area and kicked the ball out of the sideline.

Rafael knelt in the penalty area with his head in his hands.

The best chance!

He actually got the direction right!

After clearing the ball, Otamendi hugged Joe Hart and almost called him daddy.

This save really saved Otamendi.

Guardiola stood on the sidelines and kept clapping.

Beautiful!

Well done!

Joe Hart roared at the stands, and the fans of Monchengladbach held their heads like Rafael, in disbelief.

"Joe Hart! This ball is so brave! He got the direction right!

An absolute hero for Manchester City!"

Monchengladbach quickly sent a sideline ball.

Xhaka brought it up, received it, passed it with one foot, and Delmic passed it horizontally again.

This time it was Johnson.

Johnson broke through the wing, but was blocked by Otamendi and could not complete the cross.

He could only choose to pass the ball backwards. Stindl, who received the ball, saw the position behind Gundogan and made a straight pass!

This is also a problem with the three-back system. There is an obvious gap between the ribs of the back waist and the defender.

For players who are good at seizing opportunities, it is a very huge loophole.

Johnson arrived quickly.

After taking the ball, he shot directly!

He did not give Gundogan a chance to return to defense or Otamendi a chance to make up for it.

Monchengladbach was fully prepared before the game.

A heavy cannon hit the goal frame!

Joe Hart was always alert, flew up, and blocked the ball with his right arm.

The ball bounced into the penalty area and bounced off the ground.

Otamendi fell to the ground and shoveled, and the ball bounced directly and floated over his legs!

Otamendi also had some problems in judging the landing point of the ball.

Rafael followed up, swung his right leg, and volleyed the ball!

The power was great, but because he was too hasty, he couldn't find the angle.

Joe Hart climbed up desperately, but before he could react, the ball hit his chest.

The ball bounced out again, and Joe Hart fell straight on the goal line.

The crisis in the penalty area has not been resolved, and Joe Hart climbed up again by instinct.

"Joe Hart has done a great job! After saving the penalty, he made two consecutive saves!

Wall of Sighs!

Manchester City's own Wall of Sighs!"

Sterling, who came back to defense, kicked the ball out before Delmic.

David Silva in the middle received the ball and moved to the left on a large scale.

"Manchester City's counterattack! Very fast! Zhao Yi has already run across the center line!"
