Golden Greenery

Zhuo Yang looked at the smiling Joselu and really couldn't remember him.

Going down during the intermission, Joselu took the initiative to call Zhuo Yang. I thought he was looking for trouble, so he was given a slight punishment just ten minutes ago.

Unexpectedly, Joselu said very casually: "Lao Zhuo, let's exchange jerseys after the game."

What you say is not actually the most important. The tone of speaking often expresses the truth better than the content. Joselu's tone when he said this was like Pig Scar saying: Slut, go get some sex in a minute.

Zhuo Yang was a little confused, so he casually replied: "Why?"

Joselu did not feel dissatisfied. "Lao Zhuo, it seems you really don't remember me."

There was still an aura of acquaintance in the words, not familiarity, it seemed to be true.

"Remember, of course I remember, aren't you that person... that person..."

"Haha, I'm Joselu."

"Yes, yes, it's you. I remember you and that person... that person..."

"Lao Zhuo, you are such a noble and forgetful person." Joselu still didn't care: "That year at Real Madrid, we played against Malaga in the Copa del Rey. After you scored, I even ran around with you on my back. "

In the first half of the 2011-12 season, Joselu trained with the first team many times and signed up for the Copa del Rey squad, but did not appear once.

A bit impressed.

"Oh~~~" Zhuo Yang slapped his forehead: "I'm sorry, brother, I just said why you look so familiar."

Regardless of whether he was really familiar with the game or not, Zhuo Yang didn't wait until the second half to hit the smiling person. He took off his jersey and gave it to Joselu while walking, and also expressed a small apology for his behavior just now.

"Don't mind if you don't recognize it."

Joselu got close to Zhuo Yang because he missed his days at Real Madrid. Although there was a little friction in the first half, he felt that Zhuoyang's character was quite good.

Last season he was in Deportivo and got close to Benzema during the match against Real Madrid. The boss just treated him as a piece of cake and ignored him.

I'm afraid of comparing myself to others. With comparison, Joselu believed that although Zhuo Yang had a huge brand, he was more easy-going and honest.

Joselu is far from innocent, but he has clearly not been beaten up by society.

.

Although Newcastle's overall strength is not good, Benitez's defensive skills are really not overshadowed. Otherwise, why would Mourinho always dislike him.

Manchester City's ball possession rate has reached 80%, and giving Newcastle the remaining 20% ​​is simply unthinkable in the top league. Mourinho did not dare to be so shameless, but Benitez's expression did not even change.

But the score was still 1:0. Benitez was not in a hurry, but Guardiola was a little anxious.

He also hopes that Zhuo Yang will score as soon as possible, and secretly hopes that he will not score today.

If he scores a goal, he can be replaced. Strategic nuclear weapons must be used sparingly, not to mention the age.

Today Newcastle not only defended tightly, but also defended very fiercely. If they hurt the big animal again, it would be of no use at all.

But Guardiola hopes that Zhuo Yang will play the whole game without scoring a goal today. After the killing streak is interrupted, he no longer needs to be obsessed with this. If he can't perform in the game in the future, how can he perform?

I won’t argue with myself anymore.

So after the first goal was ruled offside by Marriner, Guardiola replaced him with Mangala and pulled Fernando back to the midfield, with the purpose of improving the B seat position.

Why not replace Zhuo Yang? To be honest, I didn't dare to replace him without scoring a goal, but I had no qualms about Aguero.

This opportunity was earned by Manchester City's active counterattack in front of Newcastle's penalty area. Zhuoyang and Sterling pressed on the spot, allowing Walker to pick up the leak in the ribs. After the cross, Ding Ding swung his leg in the arc and shot long-range, and the football hit the post and rebounded.

Aguero made a follow-up shot, but it was offside.

Before that, Manchester City had four threatening shots. If there is no threat, I won't go into details. The total number of shots has reached 18, while Newcastle still only had Aarons' empty goal in the first half.

After 75 minutes of the game, Manchester City had more than 20 shots, of which Zhuoyang accounted for 8 times. A minute ago he performed a long-distance heel kick in the penalty area, but it was resolved by Elliott.

Benitez made adjustments, and 2 Christian Atsu replaced Aarons. On the surface, this was a matchup substitution.

In some ways, Benitez is very similar to Ancelotti. They are both extremely good at making careful and detailed plans before the game, and they are very sophisticated in tactics. Being able to improvise on the spot is not their strong point.

Master Bei has no shortage of strategies. He judged that Manchester City, which was running on multiple fronts, was fighting fiercely until the anxious half of the season. Even if there were no major physical problems, it would definitely not be as good as Newcastle, which was young and had a single front.

So he showed weakness to the enemy at home today, handed over the stadium, and let Manchester City do the work. He just wanted to fight Manchester City in the period of physical exhaustion after 75 minutes.

Even falling behind by one goal is within the acceptable range of Master Bei, and it is also his bottom line.

The master's prediction is very accurate. Manchester City as a whole has indeed reached the critical point of physical fitness at this time. According to the usual practice, everyone should collect more and let the ball run less and let people run less. But things on the court cannot be unilateral and wishful thinking.

Atsu's replacement of Aarons was just a confrontation, but it was also a signal that Newcastle's counterattack began.

The Magpies came out in full force, relying on their abundant physical energy and suppressed bursts of drought, and robbed Manchester City like a dog in every corner of the field. A leisurely stroll had to turn into a head-on confrontation, and Blue Moon could only continue to work hard on physical fitness.

In just five minutes, Newcastle's number of shots has increased from one to five, and Ederson is busy.

Benitez added fuel to the fire in the 80th minute when he replaced right center back Mbemba with 21-year-old Spanish midfielder Mikel Merino.

Merino is on loan from Dortmund. Everything is good, but he has a lot of injuries.

Manchester City struggled with physical fatigue against Newcastle's fierce and powerful team, and the scene was heart-wrenching for their supporters. Everyone is tired, but only Zhuo Yang is not very tired.

Lao Gua asked him to only run 6,000 meters. To be honest, Zhuoyang couldn't do it. He had developed a habit of playing football for many years and suddenly became so shamelessly lazy. It was actually harder to do than asking Boss Mei to run 15,000 meters a game.

But Lao Gua's advice finally worked, allowing him to run 6,000 meters in 90 minutes. Zhuo Yang now ran about 8,000 meters in 80 minutes and was short of points. Among the team's starters, excluding Ederson, he should be the least.

But Zhuoyang's physical condition and stamina are among the best in the Manchester City team. Lao Gua asked him to run less, not because he was tired, but because he was afraid of injury.

Therefore, Newcastle launched a large-scale attack at this time, and Manchester City as a whole was trapped, but Zhuoyang personally benefited from this. The defensive shackles around him were loosened faster, and the space in front of him was wider.

In the 84th minute, Zhuoyang successfully counterattacked Lascelles in the middle line, forcing the Newcastle captain to use a yellow card to prevent him from making a customized counterattack.

Manchester City could take a breath of relief due to this pause, and Newcastle reluctantly stepped back. Everyone was taking their time.

Zhuoyang didn't want to be slow and wanted to serve quickly, but his "old teammate" Joselu stood upright in front of the ball very alertly and gave Zhuoyang a friendly smile.

"Please help me see if it's broken. It hurts." Zhuoyang lifted up his jersey to reveal his back. "I just gave you a heavy blow to that buddy, sizzling~~~"

Jose Ludo was so honest. He immediately bent down and got behind Zhuoyang's butt to take a closer look.

As soon as he got out of the way of the football, Zhuo Yang pushed the sinister Gundogan sideways, and then went out like an arrow. Only the grass clippings picked up by the air current were left in place, and Joselu, who still kept bending down and looking at his head, was in a mess.

When the ball arrived and passed through everyone in Newcastle who were still careless, Zhuo Yang didn't intend to pass goalkeeper Elliott and shot his half-attack directly outside the penalty area.

Soldiers never tire of deceit, which can also be said to be shameless, as old teammates are used to betray them.

The goal part is beautiful and ugly, beautiful as a fairy and ugly eating cakes will become numbers on the scoreboard, Manchester City 2:0.

All the exhausting physical tactics were in vain. Benitez, who was spreading his hands on the sidelines, didn't know who to scold.

The jubilant Guardiola quickly replaced Zhuoyang with Sane, who had completed 18 consecutive hits. When he walked down, he was too embarrassed to look at Joselu, and finally felt a little ashamed.

The two were completely disappointed, and he wanted to throw away the jersey he had asked for during the halftime break.
