In the first encounter between the two sides, Manchester City was given a very unfair penalty away from home.

Afterwards, the Premier League dealt with the referee on duty, of course, it was just a small verbal warning plus a two-match suspension.

Later, it was as if nothing had happened.

This time, Manchester City faced the challenge of Tottenham at home, and Manchester City players did not need to be mobilized before the game.

They will definitely use 200% of their energy to give Tottenham a good look.

At the Etihad Stadium, the fans' singing was echoing.

When the players entered the stadium, there was explosive applause.

With the appearance of Zhao Yi, the Etihad Stadium ushered in the craziest shouting sound.

"zhao~"

"one~three~"

Accompanied by a fairly neat clapping sound, this unique welcome ceremony for Zhao Yi was shocking and terrifying.

Stones started the game. He listened to the overwhelming roar and was deeply infected. This was the slogan tailored for Zhao Yi by Manchester City fans.

It would be nice if he could get the same treatment a few years later.

Zhao Yi extended his hand to signal the fans in the stands.

This match was also the second match between Zhao Yi and Son Heung-min.

The heat was still quite high.

This did make some fans in Sakura Country feel a little jealous.

Although Shinji Okazaki is also in the Premier League, he is a rotation player and cannot be 100% sure of the starting lineup.

Zhao Yi and Son Heung-min are already the starting lineups of each team and the core of the frontcourt attack.

What the fans in Sakura Country don’t know yet is that they will welcome a world-class football king a few years later.

Lionel Yoshi.

His influence is terrifying.

The three major football kings in Asia, Mr. Zhao Yi, Son Heung-min Oppa, and Colonel Yoshi.

Before the game, Guardiola and Pochettino shook hands cordially, and the two smiled like flowers.

In the first round, the two parted unhappily.

Pochettino because of the loss, Guardiola because of the unfair treatment of the team.

Even so, the two of them were fine in the second round, at least on the surface.

Guardiola did not teach this mentality to his favorite students.

He faked a leg injury, but not a hand injury.

What happened?

It is said that Luo Ge is a true character with a unique way of thinking.

Yosi Dazu is even better.

In this game, Guardiola made some adjustments to Manchester City's starting lineup.

Gundogan was unwell and could not play, so David Silva was placed in the position of defensive midfielder.

Aguero was still at the forefront.

De Bruyne, Zhao Yi and Sterling followed closely behind.

Stones partnered with Kompany, and the two backs were Sagna and Kolarov who returned from injury.

Tottenham also used a 4231 lineup. As the season progressed, Tottenham's frontcourt cooperation became more tacit. At the same time, they were eliminated from the Europa League and the League Cup, and all their energy has been focused on the league.

The league championship is still far away, but at Etihad, they must go all out to win.

Facing Manchester City, which has been unbeaten for 24 rounds, all Premier League teams will show the highest fighting spirit.

As Aguero kicked the ball out, David Silva began to play the role of organizer.

Ali and Eriksson began to encircle Silva.

Ali, the new generation of England's former star, has emerged this season and performed very well.

His value has been getting higher and higher in the next few years, and his competitive state is also very hot.

Of course, his fall was also very fast. He died before he reached the peak.

The story of Zhongyong's injury can be seen everywhere in football.

Of course, it is also due to the influence of injuries.

After all, a young man like Ali is not a shrewd football king like Yoshida.

Yoshida's injury is similar to the smart groin of a famous NBA star. It is good when it is good, and bad when it is bad.

In the six warm-up matches, he only played in one.

He played in the other five matches.

His leg was injured, his hand was injured, and his mouth was also injured.

(If Messi fans see this, I want to say that it is right to chase stars, but the success of idols is not your success, and the failure of idols is not your failure. Be a fan of Maradona, the old man is gone, but the house will not collapse)

A brainless young man like Ali only knows how to play hard and rush, but does not know how to fake an injury and rest. Can he become a big shot?

Another midfielder, Eriksen, a Danish international, has always been very low-key, a typical example of strength over fame.

His offensive organization and long pass ability are absolutely first-class in the Premier League.

Eriksen had a very scary thing on the court. He had a heart attack and almost left the green field. He almost lost his life, but he faced it bravely and survived.

Continue the football career he loves.

Eriksen had a heart attack and tried to return to the court.

Some people have to sit on the bench even if they fake an injury.I'm talking about Cristiano Ronaldo.

The two were quite successful in limiting Silva.

After Manchester City's attack was blocked, the ball was transmitted backwards.

The two sides started a tug-of-war.

Tottenham was very smart, putting Son Heung-min on the left and pulling right-back Kyle Walker to the left.

The two attacked Manchester City's right at the same time.

On the right were Sagna and David Silva, who were not in good form.

The defense of these two people against Son Heung-min and Kyle Walker was simply a disaster.

Fortunately, Stones and Fernandinho made up for it in time.

There was no great danger.

But as the game progressed, Manchester City's entire right side could collapse at any time.

In the 15th minute of the game, Tottenham had launched seven attacks on the left, three of which entered the penalty area.

Two shots, one blocked by Stones and one saved by Joe Hart.

Manchester City only found one chance. In the counterattack, Silva, Zhao Yi and De Bruyne cooperated continuously, and Sterling made a shot, but unfortunately it missed.

Manchester City did not get a chance to shoot in the positional battle.

At the beginning, Tottenham's wing attack was more effective.

Manchester City had a higher ball possession rate, but the chances were not as good as Tottenham.

This is also Manchester City's recent problem. The players are not very excited.

Even if they made a promise before the game, they seemed to be withered on the court.

Guardiola has always been a little worried about this state.

The spirit of the players is much worse than that at the beginning of the season.

As the game progressed, Tottenham's midfield played more and more smoothly.

The double defensive midfielders Dale and Dembele were more comfortable with the ball.

They found that Manchester City's pressing was not active.

Dale began to boldly advance with the ball.

Facing Zhao Yi, the super star, Dale also did a trick.

He learned from Zhao Yi's idol Zidane.

Play a Marseille turn.

Unfortunately, after a turn, he suddenly got confused.

He couldn't find the ball.

He turned around twice in the same place.

Zhao Yi hadn't seen such a good opportunity for a long time.

"Hey??? Dale... What is Dale doing??

Zhao Yi! Zhao Yi stole the ball!"

Zhao Yi's ability to steal the ball is not comparable to Kante, not to mention Gundogan.

But this kind of opportunity can be taken as long as you can play football.

Dale faced forward, but the ball was at his heel.

Before he turned around to find the ball, Zhao Yi stretched out his foot and then ran past Dale.

He got the ball and ran away.

Dale came to his senses and immediately grabbed Zhao Yi's clothes, trying to commit a direct tactical foul.

Zhao Yi would never give him this opportunity.

Facing Dembele's replacement, Zhao Yi did not hesitate to push the ball out with one foot, found De Bruyne, and then moved forward to support.

He doesn't want to break through now, because it consumes a lot of energy and there will be problems with the rhythm.

Only with this kind of pulling can there be a greater chance.

De Bruyne quickly dribbles the ball forward and successfully cuts inside.

He shakes off the defender and kicks the ball into the penalty area!

The football spins and flies in, and Aguero is disturbed and unable to turn around. He stops the ball with his chest and then kicks it back to the side.

De Bruyne receives the ball again.

Bang, another kick into the penalty area!
