Five Hundred and Ninety-Fourth Manchester City, United as One

Manchester City's hiring of Pellegrini to coach is obviously not to allow the team to stabilize the position of the top four Premier League first group, what they need is a champion!

Premier League champions, Champions League champions!

Manchester City won the Premier League title in 2012, but that was obviously not enough, especially against the background of their extremely weak European competition.

The humiliation brought to Manchester City by Liverpool's strong recovery last season was a shot in the arm. Even if the two clubs did not become mortal enemies, the team's confrontational emotions this season have reached the peak of history!

Maybe there will be an upward trend in the future, and then replace the hatred between Liverpool and Manchester United.

The confrontation between Liverpool and Manchester United is given by history, while the hostility between Liverpool and Manchester City is driven by current competition.

So against Liverpool, Manchester City has every reason to work together to win.

There can only be one champion, and Liverpool on the throne is Manchester City, Chelsea, Arsenal, and Manchester United's thorn in the flesh, so hurry up if you want to get rid of it!

But how?

Pellegrini dare not say that he is fully sure, but he knows that Manchester City first needs to lower their stance when facing Liverpool. If they can't even do this, then they will only repeat the same mistakes without a second result.

Therefore, in this Boxing Day top game, people saw that Manchester City did not play at home with the prestige and momentum that they should have at home.

They appear to be cautious, taking care of their wings carefully, not giving their opponents the slightest opportunity to take advantage of them, and even if they find a warning sign, they will go all out to remedy it.

In the 6th minute of the game, Liverpool continued the style of play after the opening, the positional battle was simple, and they were always ready for the second attack before speeding up!

After Gerrard dropped the ball into the penalty area from the right side of the front field, Kompany beat the inside Gareth Bale to clear the ball with a header.

The football that was cleared was knocked across the left by Coutinho, who was robbed in advance. Robertson assisted and then knocked the ball across the middle. Coutinho pressed the ball under Fernandinho Missed, Eriksson quickly put in the ball and took a step forward, but found that Yaya Toure was in front of him. Eriksson's hastily sent through ball seemed aimless, and Suarez went forward to the penalty area. Trying to grab the point, Joe Hart took the lead and confiscated the ball.

Pellegrini applauded from the sidelines, then waved for the team to organize a fast break.

Situ Yun's face is sinking like water. It is undeniable that Manchester City's defense is indeed very strong. Yaya Turrega Fernandinho is a rare tough combination in European football. Outside Kompany and Lescott The two old rivers and lakes, Liverpool still need to show stronger skills if they want to make trouble in front of them.

Manchester City counterattacked. During the process of waving the ball from the left, Krarov hit the wall with Silva, who took the initiative to respond, and cooperated to dodge Gerrard's counterattack. Then, Krarov crossed the ball diagonally near the center line. , Negredo backed up and quickly sent the ball to the right.

When Navas stepped forward to touch the ball, he strode the ball ten yards behind Robertson, and then used his super speed to break through the outside line!

The ball is divided!

Navas does have such speed!

At this time, Situ Yunbing confirmed Manchester City's tactics today. Defensive counterattack is only a high-level tactical definition. When it comes to details, how to counterattack is reflected in the offensive method.

Navas has speed, Nasri is not slow, Negredo has the ability to confront and serve as the fulcrum of offense, Silva and Yaya Toure instigate in the middle, Yaya Toure has more defensive tasks than offense, and Silva in turn attacks the organization It is greater than defense. Krarov and Zabaleta support the backcourt. The purpose of the whole system is to break through Liverpool's midfield blockade, and then rely on Navas' speed to play an offensive depth advantage, and then it depends on Navas himself. Go straight to Huanglong or look for Nasri or Silva to respond.

When Navas quickly pushed the offensive to the edge of the penalty area, Van Dijk and Benatia were retreating quickly. Navas might be a little anxious and passed the ball directly.

This made Nasri who followed up a bit reluctant to respond,

In the end, although he stretched his legs and touched the ball, he failed to stop the ball. The football was blocked in the penalty area, and Ter Stegen attacked and hugged the ball.

Anyone can see that Manchester City's counterattack has completed 80% of the work, but in the last 20%, Nasri failed to stop the ball, the limit was reluctant, and at the same time there was no shot, which is regrettable.

Pellegrini was not disappointed at all. Instead, he applauded to boost the morale of the team. This play at least penetrated Liverpool's defense!

On behalf of his tactical arrangement is still very effective.

Situ Yunbing fell into a rather embarrassing situation.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that there is a huge hidden danger in Liverpool's high-pressure defensive strategy, that is, there is too much room for Manchester City to counterattack!

And in the midfield they lack a stronger sweeping ability.

If Kanter is on the field, it may put a lot of pressure on Manchester City's counterattack organization, and at the same time, it will also give Liverpool a certain guarantee for their second attack or even continuous attack.

But now Kanter is not on the court.

In an away game, Liverpool can take back and play conservatively.

But the choice Situ Yunbing faces is to be a top team, they have their own style of play and pursuit, just like other giants in the world, Real Madrid, Barcelona, ​​Bayern Munich, they also persist in most games Press the opponent instead of winning the game in a utilitarian way.

For Liverpool, there is no style burden, but how to play is more beneficial to the long-term construction of the team. On this point, Situ Yunbing does not need to think too much. It must be a more active style of play that can make the ball The captain is prosperous, because a slightly passive style of play will relatively wear away the talent and passion of the players.

After weighing left and right, Situ Yunbing still insisted on his pre-match tactical deployment!

Now that the direction has already been determined, he can't change his mind just because of some setbacks. It is not his usual style to waver.

In the 12th minute of the game, Liverpool attacked quickly in the frontcourt. Gareth Bale quickly advanced the ball from the left. Enter the cross-cutting track and enter the penalty area.

Kompany immediately ran to block his passing lane, but Gareth Bale knocked the ball back outside the penalty area.

Zabaleta has already followed up in the penalty area, and the wing is empty. Robertson stops the ball here and adjusts before sending a cross.

The football flew to the rear of the penalty area. Due to the previous threats from Gareth Bale and Suarez, Manchester City's defense was concentrated on the left rib of the penalty area. Now the cross from Robertson happens to be on the right rib, which is more relaxed in defense.

Lescott couldn't clear his header and immediately went to block Gerrard's angle as he turned to look where the ball had landed.

But Gerrard made an action that made him feel incredible.

Facing the falling football, Gerrard volleyed the ball towards the middle with his arch.

Suarez ran to grab the ball before Kompany blocked it!

The football flew straight to the upper right corner of the goal like a cannonball, and Joe Hart stood motionless in front of the goal line!

"Goal! Luis Suarez's eye-popping shot gave Liverpool the lead at the Etihad Stadium!

Manchester City's defense was overwhelmed this time, and Liverpool's ability to cooperate in positional battles is getting stronger and stronger. Gerrard's assist is really a stroke of genius. No one thought that he would choose to pass the ball instead of shooting!

But this is where the horror of Liverpool is now, they are always able to handle the ball more calmly when the opportunity arises!

Liverpool go first, I think the pressure on Manchester City will be even greater! "

Situ Yunbing clenched his fist and swung hard. The team did not disappoint him. This goal is very important. It will boost the morale of the team and also deal a psychological blow to Manchester City!

The Manchester City fans in the stands of the Etihad Stadium couldn't be happier, but Pellegrini looked extremely firm. He firmly believed that Manchester City could achieve the results he wanted!

As long as Liverpool still insist on being so domineering away!

After Manchester City kicked off, their positional attack was actually very effective, and it was difficult for Liverpool to create opportunities under strict precautions.

But they are very efficient in counterattacks, because their antagonism has improved significantly after losing the ball!

In the 18th minute of the game, when Suarez's shot from the penalty area was blocked by Lescott with his body, Eriksson had just stopped the ball and Yaya Toure actively grabbed the ball and intercepted it!

Yaya Toure pushed the ball to attack, and faced Casemiro forcibly changed the direction of the ball. Although he was entangled by Casemiro, he still used his strong physical resistance to protect the ball, and then passed the ball diagonally to Nana. Gas' feet.

Navas hit the ball across the middle when Benatia and Robertson started to block him. Silva took the initiative to respond, pulled the ball and turned around to widen the distance from Van Dijk, and then sent a through kick.

Nasri successfully countered offside with an inside cut, got rid of Azpilicueta's follow-up defense, and went to the meeting alone!

Ter Stegen abandoned the goal, and Nasri chose to volley when he was five meters away from Ter Stegen!

Ter Stegen struggled to save the block but still failed to touch the football. Under the eyes of everyone, the football hit the inside of the right post and bounced into the goal!

Nasri rushed to the corner flag area to celebrate passionately!

Pellegrini clenched his fists to celebrate, and his morale was greatly boosted!

"Man City equalized! They equalized quickly!

Nasri responds to Silva's exquisite through ball and completes a single-handed goal!

Yaya Toure's interception and advancement are the key points of this counterattack. He disrupted the defense of Liverpool's midfield. Manchester City's performance at home gave me a hunch that maybe Liverpool will play at the Etihad Stadium today. Taste the taste of the season's first Premier League defeat!

Unless they change their style of play now and give up the tactical play of high position oppression.

But I think Situ Yunbing is a stubborn person. He expects Liverpool to show a strong pressure at the Etihad Stadium, because they are the Premier League champions, they just want to be different, to be able to surpass all other teams above! "
