Football Legend No. 13

In the 37th minute of the match, Juventus' cross gave them a one-goal lead.

This result made Manchester City feel a little uncomfortable, and it was also caused by the situation in the back line.

And Juventus seized the opportunity at this time.

Trailing 1-0 and thankfully in the first half, City were not very happy with the result, and they desperately needed an equaliser.

The home stadium of the Etihad was also somewhat dormant thanks to the Juventus goal.

For the fans watching at home, they are watching the home team's performance, and for the players on the field, they don't boo them, except for a certain part of the fans.

But in front of the public, they can only be regarded as a minority, can not affect the overall situation, but enough to upset.

The game resumes.

City fought back and in the few minutes there were still a few minutes when the players didn't want to go into the second half with a goal behind, which would be upsetting.

Boni's forward insertion after the kick-off, combined with the running of the two full-backs, was torn open in the Juventus defence, but they quickly made up for it under the command of Chiellini, an excellent defensive titan.

This move is even more showing the toughness of Juve's defense.

David Silva had planned for this situation, and he played a small cooperation with Musa Sissoko behind him, which also allowed him to pass Sturaro.

Behind Sturaro is Juve's strongest Italian defence.

In Juve's double central defender, Chiellini directly went up to grab, and this pressing was also his specialty, especially against David Silva, who was obviously less physically than his front back, he was more confident.

But Raheem Sterling's position on the other side is intimidating, he is in the middle of Bonucci and Lichtsteiner, and if he has a good straight plug, then he has a chance to complete the goal.

In this situation, David Silva can only believe him, and with a kick, the ball goes straight past Bonucci.

Sterling, who plugged in, did not hesitate to pump directly on the football.

"Sterling!! What a kick! It's all like this, you can still wipe the goal and stand out of bounds, this is also no one! There

was some angry tone, obviously as a commentator, he was also rare and couldn't help but burst into foul language.

A normal push can break the goal, and finally was sent crooked, this is already I don't know what to say as well, if it has always been this shooting situation, then it is better to change directly!

This is what the narrator thinks.

Sterling, who missed the opportunity to shoot, is also a little confused; "Goalball, hey!"

The game continued, and after this crooked shot, City had another chance in their position through a tenacious pressing in the remaining minutes.

Moussa Sissoko's long pass, Boni in the box snatched the goal, was too tight by Bonuchika, resulting in the final shot not getting stronger.

I could only watch as Buffon confiscated the soft shot.

......

At halftime, Pellegrini emphasized the defensive tactics, and for the attack, he believes that with David Silva and Zheng Lin on the field, this is not a problem.

Juventus, who came from Serie A, after leading by one goal, they do not intend to press up, the 1-0 doctrine is the most practical for them, as long as it is a win, what is the difference between one and two, anyway, the final result is not all winning?

The second half begins.

Manchester City, who wanted to equalise, were beaten back by Juventus after failing to score from a corner kick after three consecutive attacks failed to succeed.

Buffon threw the ball to Bonucci, as a Bonucci with an excellent long pass, he naturally saw Morata who had been waiting for the long bolt in the front, and when to wait for this time not to pass.

A long pass is sent to the front, for this situation, Manchester City's players accelerated and rushed, and the current player left in the back is not very good at getting a running Morata.

At this time, Zheng Lin was also accelerating his sprint, and he could only hope that Senya and Kolarov, who remained behind, could delay a bit, otherwise if they conceded another goal, it would be troublesome.

The next scene also made Zheng Lin almost laugh.

I don't know whether it was the fear of being tackled by Sarnia or the fear of being tackled by David Silva behind him, Morata rarely wanted to adjust, and this adjustment was completely stunned.

As soon as he pulled the ball, the last one was not in order, and he directly missed it, and this leak let Sania directly grab it.

It was also good luck for Juve, Morata controlled the ball in time and passed it directly back to the following Mandzukizi.

This also allowed them to escape.

Mandzukizi accelerated and ignored Kolarov's defense, and finally he was at the front of the penalty area, and a kick after a bicycle kick caused Kolarov to misjudge.

After watching Kolarov's free space, Mandzukizi unhurriedly got up and hit the door, and at this time he could only hope that Joe Hart could show his might!

Mario Mandzukić!! For Juve in the next city, there are less than 20 minutes left in the game, which is the goal that is about to kill the game! "

The first and second halfes were scored by Juve towards the end of the game, which was not very good for Manchester City.

The originally somewhat noisy Etihad fell silent again.

With the whistle, the game began again.

Throughout the game, Manchester City were not without chances, but in the end they failed to convert chances into goals, which is the most fatal point.

With Kevin De Bruyne coming on in the 68th minute, City's crosses from both wings had reached their "peak", and it was time to see if Boni could complete the succession.

Over the next ten minutes, City formed several attacks, all of which were unsuccessful.

Either Bonucci blocked the bottom line, or Chiellini directly cleared, the whole situation appeared to be suppressed by Manchester City, but the fact is that Manchester City are already two goals behind.

With the last 3 minutes to go, this is Manchester City's last chance!

David Silva is slowly advancing with the ball, and for him, the shorter the time, the less rush he can make.

In the advance, he noticed the position of Zheng Lin and De Bruyne, compared to De Bruyne's unfamiliarity, he was more willing to believe in Zheng Lin's kick at this time, he passed the ball, and at this time he was counting on Zheng Lin to win back a goal for Manchester City.

If it's two goals, then it's even more gratifying!

Zheng Lin noticed Evra on his right-hand side, if he wants to hit the goal directly here, I'm afraid he still needs to adjust, if he passes, don't believe in himself at this critical moment?

After receiving the ball, he rubbed his left foot directly into the goal, and the football made a moon arc straight to the goal.

"Zheng Lin hit the goal directly, this is Manchester City's last chance! There is less than a minute left in the game! "

The ball went in!! When the ball passed through the defenders, it changed the defense slightly, which caused Buffon to fail to save! Let's take a look at the replay. The

tone of the commentary was full of surprise for this goal, and it was clear that this shot eventually saved a bit of face for Manchester City, but this arc that changed direction in mid-air was not such a kick.

After a few replays, the reason was discovered - the ball rubbed Chiellini's head, causing the arc of the football to change, and finally the ball fell into the goal with Buffon's fingers.

"It's an oolong ball, right?"

"Forget it, but time is gone, as long as Juventus drag it out a little longer, then the game will be over!"

As the game resumed, Juve resorted to a delaying tactic, returning a quick pass and finally opening with 10 seconds left.

The final whistle sounded as City lost 2-1 at home to Juventus.

Manchester City's first group game was thus defeated.

For this defeat, Zheng Lin naturally accepted, as Manchester City that wasted more opportunities, isn't it normal to fail?

The opportunity is not absent, but the failure to grasp it, which cannot be blamed on others, but only blame their own level of kicking the door is not enough!
