Step by Step to Win

Before the official start of the Champions League game, if it is said that before Manchester City's game against Wolfsburg, the players of Wolfsburg from top to bottom only regard victory as the ultimate pursuit, then the players of Manchester City seem to be pursuing more. some. Before the game against Wolfsburg, the British media had already built momentum for Manchester City. Before the game, many media were boasting that this was a year belonging to Manchester City. Manchester United and Chelsea were rebuilding. Liverpool Arsenal should not worry about it. This year, Manchester City is a team destined to rise. According to the media, Manchester City will achieve a huge harvest this year, and in the Champions League, Manchester City must have made a breakthrough. In the face of Wolfsburg, Manchester City should consider not winning or not, but winning several issues.

Perhaps as a team that has repeatedly broken down in the Champions League in recent years, Manchester City believed that they must be the winner from the beginning, and before the start of the game, they were thinking about how many wins they would qualify as qualified. Too much underestimation of the enemy, but Manchester City themselves never think that this is any mistake. In their view, when they encounter Wolfsburg, victory is necessary. What kind of opponent is a team that you haven't heard of?

In the eyes of Manchester City, a team like Wolfsburg has never been an opponent they should value. Although this team played Arsenal last year and Manchester United this year, they played pretty well, but in the eyes of Manchester City , This year's Manchester United is already a joke, and Arsenal has always been regarded as their own youth team, defeating ⌒√⌒√, ＠x. They do not necessarily represent strong strength. Especially that is just a matter of the group stage. Who will do their best in the group stage? In the Champions League knockout rounds, why should they compare with themselves?

Although strictly speaking. Manchester City have never played in the Champions League knockouts themselves, but for their players will play well in the Champions League knockouts. They are still very confident. When they heard that their opponent was Wolfsburg, Manchester City considered things. In addition to the question of who the opponent will be in the next round, they are more concerned about how to play in the game against Wolfsburg in order to make people more satisfied.

In this regard, Manchester City's team up and down, it can be said that they have had their ideas early.

The best way for a team to show its strength is to attack, which is self-evident. Mercurial attack. The tactics that made people confused and completely suppressed the opponent in the backcourt were finally accompanied by a beautiful big score: in Manchester City's view, facing a weak team, if they can play at home, if they can play a complete dominance. Level, then after a game, people will know who is the real boss. From the very beginning of the game, Manchester City has set the tone of the game. From the beginning, they were prepared to use offense to completely defeat Wolfsburg.

And during the game, they did just that. Not long after the start of the game, Manchester City's attack started from Kolarov.

As Manchester City's left back. Kolarov has always been a player with very obvious characteristics. This player's defensive ability is relatively inadequate, as a full-back. His defensive ability is still at the level of a colander. However, this player has a good ball quotient. And he has a very good pass, which also allows him to be on the court. Take on a very important offensive task. As an offensive starting point, he can be said to be more suitable. On the court, the players of Wolfsburg were frustrated after the opening, and when they retreated a little, Kolarov also keenly seized the opportunity, and his attack also followed the trend.

Standing in the backcourt of the stadium, Kolarov directly chose a long pass. As a wide player, Kolarov's speed is not particularly advantageous. He knew that even if he plugged in quickly, he might not be able to have a good effect. In contrast, his long pass level can be said to be quite good. This long pass from the backcourt directly sent the ball through the midfield.

Yaya Toure, who was in the midfield, had already understood his thoughts from the time he passed the ball, and in the midfield, he could quickly do it in. The football came to the front, Yaya Toure had already ran to the place where he dropped the ball. He leaned sideways and unloaded the ball with his shoulder. Then he immediately made a diagonal pass and divided the ball to the foot of Nasri on the side. It was done. Grooming of an offense.

Manchester City's attack, the effect is obviously quite good. Kolarov made a long pass directly, and Yaya Toure made a diagonal pass and sent the ball directly to the vicinity of the penalty area. In this position, Nasri has already won the football. One of their attacks was almost the last pass.

With such an offense, any team can be proud of it. It's just a pity that Manchester City's offense is still a bit too anxious. When the football passed to the wing, Nasri got the ball at his feet, but before he had time to run, Rong had already wrapped himself up close.

If Manchester City had carefully prepared for the battle with Wolfsburg before the game, they would know that Wolfsburg could defend against Bayern, Real Madrid and other top teams in the past and did quite well. . After the opening of the game, the players of Wolfsburg really had to retreat because of Manchester City’s excellent technology, but this retreat does not mean that they have lost all their combat capabilities. On the contrary, if they stabilize the line and start to shrink the defense, it is also a wolf. One of the tactics commonly used in Fort.

Wolfsburg never rejects defensive counterattacks. On the contrary, they play this way a lot of times against strong teams. In the face of such a defense, if Manchester City conceive the offense in detail, it may still break the opponent's defense, but such a sloppy offense is extremely difficult to succeed.

Nasri ran into such a problem when he was on the sidewalk. Facing Rong's defense, he dunked the ball twice, trying to get rid of it, but it seemed that it didn't work at all. Rong's defense is like brown sugar, clinging to him tightly and refusing to relax in the slightest. In front of him, it is not so easy to find a chance to pass the ball.

For Manchester City's rapid forward pass forward, Wolfsburg really failed to intercept.

But in the defense near the penalty area, they did a good job. Nasri also noticed the two attempts to get rid of to no avail. In the penalty area, the opponent's two guards had already surrounded Dzeko. Even if he got rid of his opponent, this pass was mostly useless.

Seeing this, Nasri was also heartbroken. He took the ball to the center and rushed directly. Since the pass is not good, then rely on your own breakthrough to the center to disrupt the opponent's defense. This may have a certain effect.

Nasri suddenly accelerated under his feet and ran toward the middle, but Rong did not let go of him behind him, but still followed his footsteps closely. In the midfield, the two guards of Wolfsburg moved forward quickly, at the front of the penalty area, and became a solid wall. Gustavo above the midfield was also taken back together at this time, four people At the same time, it formed a pincer attack on Nasri.

Such a tight defense made Nasri helpless for a while: Technically speaking, Nasri is not a player who likes to break through and go inside. When he plays like this, he rarely can form a tacit cooperation with his teammates. . In Manchester City’s tactics, more activities are on the wing, and after cutting inside, he prefers to hit the goal directly, or simply throw the ball to end the game, but this ball, Wolfsburg obviously aimed at his characteristics, neither allowing him to pass calmly on the flank nor giving him the opportunity to hit the door inwardly. This was to prepare to suffocate him alive.

This kind of play is really targeted. Although Nasri knew very well now that the most important thing he should do is to seek cooperation with Dzeko in the penalty area and let him find a chance to shoot, but under siege at this time, he did not have the ability to find Dzeko. The cooperation in the penalty area is not good for everyone, especially Manchester City's current single forward tactics make it difficult for Nasri to seek cooperation, so that he can not find the opportunity at all.

Faced with the upcoming game, the team that has carefully prepared can make many targeted arrangements. These arrangements can often allow the weak to defeat the strong. This is a truth that has been verified in many games.

However, even so, Nasri was still not blocked. After being chased by four people, he could only use his feet suddenly, speed up his pace again, forcibly exceed the defensive range of Nardo and Kayar, ran from the left to the right, and then took advantage of it. As the defense failed to keep up, he suddenly turned around to shoot and kicked the ball out!

Even if it was a four-person siege, he still had a **** path, but the problem was that the angle of the shot after the breakthrough was very poor. Nasri’s shooting is not bad, but it’s not so good that there is no problem with any tricky angle. This shot was rushed under the foot, and the angle was a bit too correct. Benalio was directly hit by it. Arms.

With the sighs of the fans, Manchester City's attack was blocked by Wolfsburg. Nasri has a look of regret. In fact, he also knows in his heart that even if the ball is not completely embraced, Manchester City has no hope of a second attack. Because his inner cut ran too far, Manchester City's offensive line was in chaos. Dzeko was blocked by him and couldn't get in. Even if the ball was dropped, Manchester City would have no chance.

Their tactical arrangement, from the very beginning, wanted to completely disrupt Manchester City's offense. And they did it well.

Manchester City's offense is very good, but in front of Wolfsburg, they seem to hit a wall. Who wins and loses in this game, I'm afraid it is not so easy to distinguish. (To be continued...)</dd>
