Green Ace Marshal

At the Etihad Stadium, the much-anticipated Premier League match-up is about to begin. The starters of the two teams step into the stadium for the ceremony before the kick-off.

The deafening cheers in the stadium resounded across the sky again.

"Good afternoon, everyone, everyone, welcome to the 13th round of the Premier League first game, Manchester City is at home against the defending champion Liverpool!

Before the game, Fleet Street once criticized the Football Association for putting this game after FIFA match day, which would affect the quality of the game, and the two teams really couldn't come up with the strongest lineup, and even the status would be a question mark.

Manchester City is now 8 points behind Liverpool, which can’t help but cause concern. If Manchester City cannot beat Liverpool at home, then Liverpool will basically lock the half-time championship. If Manchester City loses at home, will we be in November? You can announce in advance that Manchester City have lost the title!

If this is true, then who can stop Liverpool from completing an unprecedented four consecutive English Premier League titles in the Premier League?

So in fact, Manchester City does not lack outside support. People expect more suspense in the Premier League. But Manchester United is not upbeat. Chelsea’s internal struggle is self-defeating. Arsenal needs to go through a period of painful coaching changes. The last hope seems to be only on Manchester City!

Can Pellegrini prove himself this season?

Let's look at the starting lineups of the two teams.

Manchester City started 433 today.

Goalkeeper: Joe Hart.

Defenders: Sarnia, Mangala, Demichelis, Krarov.

Midfielder: Fernando, De Bruyne, Yaya Touré.

Forwards: Mahrez, Aguero, Sterling.

What is interesting is that there are two players in Manchester City who have played for Liverpool. In addition to De Bruyne's words, three of the starting players were once disciples of Situ Yunbing.

Of course Situ Yunbing knew them very well and knew their threat!

Today, Liverpool's away start is also 433.

Goalkeeper: Ter Stegen.

Defenders: Arnold, Van Dijk, Benatia, Robertson.

Midfielder: Kanter, Coutinho, Eriksson.

Forwards: Gareth Bale, Lewandowski, Sane.

Although both teams have been affected by injuries, it seems that Liverpool only has a hidden danger in the right back position, and Manchester City's entire back line may be somewhat unstable.

Especially the combination of veteran Demichelis and Mangala is absolutely unreasonable!

The game will start right away, let's take a look at the trend of the Premier League first battle this season! "

With the referee's whistle, the match between Manchester City and Liverpool officially began!

Manchester City is very active at home on the offensive. De Bruyne and Yaya Toure ensure the fluency and efficiency of Manchester City's offensive organization.

Kanter and Eriksson built a barrier on the back waistline. De Bruyne knew Kanter's interception ability and did not make a formidable break, but passed the ball diagonally to Sterling on the left.

After Sterling took the ball, he quickly leaped forward and broke through!

Arnold subconsciously stretched his leg to intercept and was dodged by the opponent!

Liverpool's right defense was broken!

Seeing Liverpool's starting roster, no one would worry about Arnold, and Manchester City showed strong lethality in the first wave of offensive after the opening!

Sterling lapped the ball inside the penalty area, knocked the ball back diagonally before Van Dijk came to blockade, and Aguero took the initiative to take the kick and kicked the goal in a lateral run!

He blasted the ball to the near corner of the goal, but the football flew out of the baseline against the outside of the left goal post!

call!

The Manchester City fans felt extremely sorry, and many fans couldn't help but jump up!

"Aguero's shot is a tiny fraction!

Manchester City almost opened the scoring first at home!

Sterling succeeded in overtaking Arnold. Although he impressed us on the offensive end in his limited playing time in the past, as a full-back, his defensive ability obviously needs to be strengthened! "

Manchester City's offensive after the opening was very impressive.

Situ Yunbing was not worried because of Arnold's breakthrough. What is the use of worrying?

Azpilicueta is suspended. Guerrero is similar to Arnold. The position of the former is unfamiliar. Either you have to use the central defender to play as the right back, and that is just to deal with the game. Arnold It is not an adventure, but a necessary process of training and sharpening him.

Manchester City's performance made Situ Yunbing can't help muttering to himself: "It's a good one, what I want is such a game!"

Situ Yunbing would look down on Pellegrini if ​​Manchester City were defending.

If you look at their back line, you know that if Manchester City want to survive 90 minutes without being attacked by Liverpool, it is absolutely fantastic!

If you can't defend it, attack it!

It just so happens that Liverpool have this intention!

In the 4th minute of the game, Gareth Bale received the pass from Coutinho on the right, but when he pretended to break through Krarov, he kicked the ball back, and then followed up with Eriksson who followed up to complete the collision. He immediately moved inside after he had the ball. Krarov returned to the defense slowly and was taken by Gareth Bale!

After Gareth Berneche lapped the ball in two steps and saw Mangala coming to block, he suddenly dialed the ball to crosscut!

Mangala stopped and then stretched out his leg to intercept and failed to touch the football. Gareth Bale staggered with him and then suddenly kicked the goal!

The football blasted into Manchester City's goal like a cannonball, and Joe Hart could not even make a save when he heard a loud noise!

boom!

The football hit the upper edge of the crossbar and flew into the stands!

Manchester City fans are panicking and numb!

"Wow, Gareth Bale's powerful shot hit the crossbar!

Manchester City's shot was just a tiny bit short, and Liverpool quickly turned back!

Both teams' defenses seem to be more or less problematic! "

Manchester City are determined to show off their offensive ability in front of Liverpool, and they do have this capital.

In the 7th minute of the game, when Aya Toure received Aguero's back pass from the frontcourt, he quickly knocked the ball across De Bruyne, who took the initiative to run to the right, and Mahrez brought a restraint. Let De Bruyne have a good ball-handling space, he directly passed an oblique kick to hang the ball to the left side of the penalty area!

This pass is very precise and imaginative. This is the embodiment of De Bruyne's creativity. It can be said that De Bruyne's creativity is second to none in European football where the masters are extinct!

Sterling received De Bruyne's pass in this fast internal cut!

Even Van Dijk was unable to get close in time after he realized it, returning to the blockade!

Ter Stegen hurriedly ran towards the left goal post. Sterling faced an excellent opportunity. As long as he shoots the ball towards the goal, it is absolutely threatening. Whether he can score depends on his shooting footwork. !

But when the football fell in front of him, Sterling shot the ball high with a kick!

The moment the football flew over the crossbar, countless Manchester City fans could not help covering their faces!

Situ Yunbing smiled very unmannered!

It's like the smile when Sterling played for Liverpool inexplicably after flying many singles!

Sterling didn't smile himself, and looked very angry.

But Situ Yunbing is sure that Happy Football is online again!

"OMG! Sterling has a chance to score a goal!

De Bruyne's pass is almost perfect, and any forward will hope to get De Bruyne's pass!

Sterling only needs to do two things, run in place and shoot the ball!

He did his job well, and then kicked the ball away with a bad shot!

It's a violent thing! "

Pellegrini is a little speechless!

This level of strong dialogue cannot tolerate any slackness!

When an opportunity arises, we must grasp it. First, it is a rare opportunity, and secondly, it is a crime to waste an opportunity in this way!

Liverpool escaped, and then launched a fast break!

When Robertson made an assist from the left and teamed up with Sane to break Sarnia's defense, Robertson made a vigorous kick in the penalty area and sent the ball to the front zone!

Lewandowski slowed down under the interference of Demichelis, and Joe Hart did not dare to attack. Obviously, it is impossible to touch football.

But after the point, Gareth Bale's quick inward cut was about to kill. At the moment of the moment, Mangala returned to the goal and kicked the ball to clear the ball!

Gareth Bale made it, but Mangala had already taken the lead and saw Mangala kicked Robertson's football!

For a moment, the Etihad Stadium was silent and silent!

Football is spinning in Manchester City's goal!

Mangala was dumbfounded, Gareth Bale was startled, and then rushed towards Robertson!

The Red Army fans began to cheer and celebrate afterwards!

"OMG! OMG! Mangala scored an own goal!

He wanted to clear Robertson's pass, but he blocked the ball into his goal!

From the slow motion, Robertson’s almost volleyed cross is seen as a straight line, but in fact the trajectory is a bit erratic. It is no wonder that Mangala had a faulty kick in the clearance!

Mangala judged that there was a problem. He did not expect a subtle deviation in the position of the football to the foot when he cleared the siege. It is this subtle deviation that caused the understanding to become an own goal!

Manchester City are behind at home, they are really unlucky!

We are all worried for Demichelis, worried that the old Argentine defender who is about to turn 35 will be blown by Liverpool, but we did not expect that it was the young Mangala who made the big mistake first!

However, judging from the performance of Manchester City on the field today, they are capable of breaking Liverpool's goal! "

Situ Yunbing laughed a bit on the sidelines, and Pellegrini was embarrassed and bitter!

How do people lead this team?

Fleet Street criticized Manchester City for not being brave enough, okay, is it brave enough today?

Our defenders all kicked the ball into their goal!

Do you know why you dare not make a desperate move to oppress the whole army?

The rear defense is a sinkhole!
