The next day, Al-Ittihad played its second home game in four days.

The fans were really happy.

The players were also in good shape, after all, most of the main players had had enough rest in the last round of the home League Cup.

Norwich, nicknamed the Canary, has been a Premier League lifter in recent years.

It is also the newly promoted team this season.

The performance this season is pretty good, at least it is not in the relegation zone now.

After arriving at Al-Ittihad, they adopted a very common tactic.

Firm defensive counterattack.

Parking the bus.

The bus tactic has always been a common tactic for weak teams.

This tactical system has a very good advantage, and it does not require high positioning and skills for the players.

Therefore, the funds needed to build a team are very small.

And it can achieve good results, with a very high cost-effectiveness.

Norwich mainly uses this tactic.

Put a high center forward in the frontcourt, and if conditions permit, buy a good fast center forward.

Then pile up a bunch of defensive players in the backcourt, and then find an opportunity to kick the ball.

The most famous head coach who has played this tactic to the extreme is Mourinho.

Guardiola and Mourinho are undoubtedly two extremes.

One complicates football, and the other simplifies football.

From the perspective of viewing alone, Guardiola's team is definitely better.

However, from a utilitarian point of view, the team led by Mourinho is actually stronger than Guardiola's in terms of championship ability.

The reason why Guardiola's team performance is better than Mourinho's is that Guardiola has absolute control over the locker room.

Mourinho is much worse.

Now, Mourinho has lost control of the Chelsea dressing room again.

Last season, they were the Premier League champions, but this season they are aiming for relegation.

Norwich's tactics were still successful.

In the first half an hour, neither side had a chance to score.

But from the scene, Norwich was simply being beaten.

Manchester City's players have surrounded Norwich.

In the entire Manchester City backcourt, only Joe Hart was left there blowing the cold wind.

Fortunately, he was well prepared, wearing a long-sleeved jersey, and he ran to the center circle to receive a ball and showed his face in the camera.

Otherwise, he might have caught a cold before getting injured.

In the 31st minute of the game, Aguero, who had returned from injury, finally received Zhao Yi's lob pass and used an uncommon header to head the ball into the goal.

Aguero celebrated wildly after scoring.

He rushed out of the stadium, and then, together with Sterling, improved his celebration.

Not only sticking his butt out, but also shaking his shoulders.

The two of them stretched out their hands and kept patting their heads.

The camera gave Zhao Yi, who was speechless.

The Manchester City commentator believed that Aguero and Sterling might not receive Zhao Yi's pass in the future.

The celebrations of these two people deeply hurt Zhao Yi, who could not attack with headers.

In Su Lei Sports, while there was a lot of applause for this goal, there was also a lot of curses.

Because this goal was scored in the 30th minute and 9 seconds of the game.

It was exactly 30 minutes later.

A large part of the Su Lei brothers bought goals from 15 minutes to 30 minutes.

This goal was scored just after 30 minutes, which was a disaster for them.

Lost hundreds, thousands or even tens of thousands at once.

In the first half, Manchester City led by one goal.

In the second half, as Norwich's physical fitness declined significantly, Manchester City's offense became more arbitrary.

However, they did a very good job defending Zhao Yi.

It was difficult for Zhao Yi to get a chance to shoot.

But this means that other Manchester City players have more opportunities.

In the 61st minute of the game, Zhao Yi and De Bruyne cooperated continuously and passed the ball to Sterling on the wing.

Sterling kicked and shot.

Manchester City led 2:0!

Brother Su Lei's face was black.

Because this goal happened to be scored after 60 minutes, those who bought the goal in 45 to 60 minutes were crying without tears, and they could only curse.

In the 80th minute of the game, Zhao Yi was doubled by three players and stumbled out. The Norwich players went crazy.

They didn't care about others at all, just went for Zhao Yi.

All offensive players were abandoned.

Just don't let Zhao Yi shoot.

Zhao Yi had no choice but to pass the ball to the wing.

De Bruyne, who followed, also kicked.

3:0!

In the last ten minutes, the Norwich players were excited,

The defenders surrounded Zhao Yi.

They didn't care about winning or losing, they just wanted to make Zhao Yi score nothing.

Aguero rushed into the penalty area from outside the penalty area, unimpeded!

He shot and scored a goal.

4:0!

Norwich succeeded.

Zhao Yi successfully made this game 0 goals.

Ended his record of ten consecutive goals in the Premier League.

After the game, Norwich coach Davey thought his team performed very well.

Juventus was scored five goals by Zhao Yi, Manchester United was scored three goals by Zhao Yi, and Tottenham was also scored three goals by Zhao Yi.

From this point of view, Norwich is stronger than Manchester United, Tottenham, and Juventus.

"Yes, Zhao scored two goals against Chelsea, but considering that Norwich's ranking is higher than Chelsea, we are indeed stronger than Chelsea."

The comparison method of Norwich coach Davey is very similar to that of a big man in China.

The key is that he said it with confidence and pride, which makes people unable to refute.

After the game, in the mixed interview area, the reporter asked Zhao Yi a question.

Did he feel a little regretful about ending the ten-game scoring streak?

Everyone could see that Zhao Yi wanted to score a goal very much at the last moment.

Unfortunately, he was surrounded by a group of people.

"Emm... It's really a pity, but it's also an honor. If a player encounters this kind of treatment on the field, it means that he has received great recognition and respect.

Norwich's players did not adopt extreme foul tactics, and their performance is also worthy of everyone's praise."

Finally, the reporter asked another question.

Is he confident of scoring a goal in the Champions League match in the middle of the week?

After all, in this game, there was no goal in 90 minutes.

This is a bit abnormal for Zhao Yi, who had scored a lot of goals before.

The fact that he didn't score a goal was related to the opponent's dense defense. Was it also because of too many games that affected his state?

"Sevilla's home ground has a very strong fighting power, and Real Madrid and Barcelona can't take any advantage there.

Their home ground has always been the key to scoring points.

We have played a lot of games recently, and our condition has not been adjusted to the best.

But we will try our best to win the game.

You asked me if I will score a goal?

Compared to scoring a goal, I would rather see the team win.

Of course, I will definitely score a goal in this Champions League."

Zhao Yi's answer surprised the reporter a little.

Even if they are confident, few players dare to say that they will definitely score a goal before the game.

Because if they don't score, it will be a big shame.
