Golden Greenery

Monchengladbach is a young team, mostly born in the 1990s. Today, among the eighteen players on and off the field, the oldest one is Brazilian forward Rafael Caetano, who is the same age as Zhuo Yang. .

Raphael scored 13 goals in the Bundesliga last season and was the top scorer in the Borussia team, and has been so for the past three seasons. Guardiola knows Borussia Mönchengladbach, and coach Schubert also knows Pep Guardiola. In order to allow Rafael to avoid Manchester City's endless pressing, today he was hidden behind the two forwards.

But this was obviously of no use. Borussia only had three shooting opportunities in the game, and Rafael scored once, which was so high that it was incomprehensible. This shows the success of Manchester City's tactics today.

When Zhuo Yang came up, the game basically entered the final stage. His condition cannot be hidden from anyone. Everyone knows that if Manchester City can replace Zhuoyang at this time, it means that they are planning to stop. It also warns their opponents: Don't be shameless.

Zhuoyang ran in the center circle, received a pass from Gundogan, and turned around to face Oscar Winter. He didn't take it hard. He took the ball outside and pushed it sideways to Sane on the wing.

Before Sane started running with the ball, Rafael knocked Zhuo Yang down from behind.

The whole audience was in an uproar, and then violent curses broke out in the stands. Zhuoyang is now the treasure of Manchester City and even the entire Premier League.

Fouls are necessary on the court, but in many cases they are completely unnecessary, and this was the case. Unnecessary area, unnecessary situation, and it was after Zhuoyang played the ball. I don't know what Raphael was thinking, maybe he was trying to increase his presence, or maybe he was panicking because he had done nothing today.

After kicking Zhuoyang down, Rafael also felt something was wrong, and quickly reached out to pull Zhuoyang up, but was pushed out by the rushing Gundogan and staggered. Then Manchester City players swarmed around and the scene turned into a mess.

Zhuo Yang sat on the ground, frowning and rubbing the back of his ankles, thinking about being fouled this time.

In fact, Rafael's foul was not violent, but a bit bad. His knees hit him from behind, and his toes went directly to Zhuo Yang's heels. Before turning around and throwing the ball, Zhuoyang saw Rafael coming up.

Two years ago, Raphael couldn't even touch a hair on Zhuo Yang's body, and there was a high probability that Zhuo Yang would hit him in return.

It wasn't difficult to dodge, but I couldn't dodge it, or I didn't have the awareness to shoot the ball and dodge it immediately. This is not a difficult move, nor is it Zhuoyang's slow reaction. It is purely a lack of feeling for the game.

I have been away from the court and away from the fierce competition for a long time, and I have to get everything back bit by bit.

The dispute ended with Rafael and Gundogan each receiving a yellow card. Zhuoyang did not bother Rafael. After standing up, he stamped his feet vigorously.

As I said just now, replacing Zhuoyang showed that Guardiola signaled the team to save some face for the opponent and not to do things to perfection like Barcelona beat the Celtics, but Rafael kicked Zhuoyang over when he came up, which was obviously To be shameless and to save face is nonsense.

Manchester City took a free kick, and Zhuoyang pulled to the wing to support him. After changing positions with De Bruyne and Zabaleta twice, he received a pass from Federer. Coincidentally, it was Raphael who stood in front of him again.

Zhuoyang stopped the football on the spot, and Rafael took a small step forward. Zhuoyang stared at his shoulder and suddenly dodged to the left, obviously pulling the ball and walking away.

Raphael rushed to block the ball, but Zhuoyang instantly flashed back to the right. As a result, Raphael's focus failed to obey him.

Involuntarily, his legs gave way and he fell to the ground. Zhuoyang didn't even touch the football, he just relied on realistic fake moves to knock him down.

The cheers at the City Stadium were as loud as clouds.

By the time Rafael got up from the ground in embarrassment, Zhuo Yang had already started dribbling the ball to the outside corner of the penalty area. Strobl came closer, Zhuoyang did not force the cut inside, and after a slight delay, he passed the ball to Zabaleta who cut through the bottom.

Zabaleta passed by Winter and then passed to the goal. The football was forcibly clicked by the alert Sommer and flew to the other side of the penalty area. Sane grabbed the landing spot first.

Sane wanted to catch his opponent off guard, so he aimed at Zhuoyang just inside the penalty area and passed it immediately, but the ball was blocked by American midfielder Johnson and Zhuoyang was caught off guard.

The half-high ball was very difficult to handle. Behind him was the tall Swiss defender Elvedi, who was squeezing him with his back to the goal. In front of him was Johnson's turn and flank attack.

Under normal circumstances, they will choose to give the football back to Sane and let him find other opportunities to organize. Those who are brave will also try to force the porcelain to see if they can find a way to fall.

Zhuoyang leaned back suddenly. Elvedi was afraid that he would fall, so he quickly held on with all his strength. Zhuoyang took advantage of the momentum and moved forward, twisting his chest and hitting the football towards the top of the arc.

Iheanacho came up with two big strides, and blasted the football into the goal with the instep of his foot. 4:0, Zhuo Yang contributed a chest assist.

Even Iheanacho himself didn't care about celebrating. Instead, he ran over first and hugged Zhuoyang, smiling like a flower.

The stands sang "Zhuo Yang's Song", and Guardiola felt that he was so wise.

When Zhuoyang had an idea and made a chest pass, he actually didn't know if his teammates were following up at the top of the arc, and he didn't have time to observe first. He just felt that there should be someone there, someone could be there, so he breasted.

Without Iheanacho's follow-up, Zhuoyang's wonderful shot would have turned into a mistake, and it was inexplicable. Someone happened to catch up, and it was a wonderfully imaginative pass.

How to choose, it is also the feeling of the game, and there is also a certain amount of luck.

However, Zhuo Yang thought that Gundogan or Ding Ding would appear there, but he never expected it to be Iheanacho. Because this kid is a center, the most important place for him to be at this moment is in the penalty area. The correct position is to appear close to Zhuoyang's side to receive the ball.

Manchester City's crown prince Iheanacho is used to moving around blindly, so falling behind this time was purely an accident. It was both Zhuo Yang's good luck and this kid's good luck. Such a thing cannot be explained clearly.

Football would be boring if it followed the rules too much.

Under the protection of Gundogan and Tintin, he hit a long shot from a distance of 30 meters. Aiming at the inside of the upper right corner of the door frame, the football flew out from the outside, which was not too outrageous.

A minute later, Sane broke through and was pulled down by Syrian-German midfielder Mahmoud Dahoud. Manchester City received a direct free kick.

Dahoud is only 20 years old this year and is the main midfielder of the German U21 national youth team. The Syrian national team has always hoped that he would naturalize and play for his country, but he is obviously still waiting and watching.

This time Zhuo Yang changed his left foot, and the result was a very satisfying spin, but he did not suppress the ball. Guardiola turned around quietly on the sidelines and covered his face.

Then the game ended. Manchester City won 4-0 in their first home game of the Champions League, echoing Barcelona in the same group. The new season started with eight consecutive wins in official matches, the only one in European football.
