Chapter 431 Surprise or fright?(1/2)

As a teammate of the Argentina national team, Mascherano knows Tevez very well, and Chen Ran assigned him the task to freeze Tevez.

As soon as Mascherano came on the court, the effect was immediately reflected. Tevez's breakthroughs were cut off by Mascherano, and Manchester City's attack was paralyzed again.

Since Crystal Palace is playing in substitute players, its offensive strength cannot be compared with the main lineup.

For a moment, although the two teams played back and forth very lively, no one could break through the opponent's goal.

Until the referee blew the whistle at the end of the first half, the score on the field remained at 0:0 and did not change.

On the way back to the locker room, Southgate came to Chen Ran again.

"Boss, it seems that it will be difficult for the players on the court to break through Manchester City's goal. Should we replace the main player to attack?"

"No. Three days later, it will be the second leg of the Champions League quarter-finals. We only beat Real Madrid 2:1 in the first leg, and this score is not safe. Therefore, the physical fitness of the main players must be kept against Real Madrid.

Madrid.”

"Garrez, you still have a chance to recover the points lost in the league. But if you miss the Champions League, you will have to wait until next season. When you can't take into account both events, as the head coach, sometimes you have to do it.

Make a choice, do you understand?”

"I understand, boss."

Back in the locker room, Chen Ran did not lose his temper because the game was not going well. He encouraged the players as usual, and then walked to Suarez.

"Louis, I'll give you the 'free fire right' in the second half. You can play whatever you want, do you understand?"

"Really? Boss!"

Suarez, who was wiping sweat with a towel, was stunned for a moment, and then screamed in excitement. He had been back to the Crystal Palace for a while and knew very well what this meant.

"That's right. The opportunity is rare, you have to seize it."

Chen Ran smiled and patted Suarez on the shoulder and said.

"Haha, boss, don't worry, I will definitely help the team win Manchester City."

After explaining Suarez, Chen Ran turned to look at the other players.

"Everyone should send more shells to Louis in the second half of the game, especially Frank and Jamie. You two have to increase their strength in the wing attack. Do you understand?"

"I understand, boss."

Ribery and Valdy looked at each other and replied in unison.

Chen Ran used the "first-level chicken blood card" for Suarez here, and in Manchester City's locker room, Mancini was very satisfied with the team's performance in the first half.

After all, it is not easy to be able to tie the powerful Crystal Palace.

Therefore, except for encouraging Manchester City players to continue their efforts in the second half, Mancini did not make any substitutions and make adjustments.

At the beginning of the second half, Mancini, who saw that Crystal Palace had not made a substitution, secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Mancini knew very well that Crystal Palace is basically the substitutes who are playing in the game now.

Although Manchester City can tie the game with Crystal Palace now, this is definitely not the true level of Crystal Palace.

What Mancini is most worried about now is that Chen Ran replaced the offensive core players such as Ronaldo and Messi.

However, Mancini soon discovered something was wrong.

The only striker on the field, the Uruguayan young player Suarez, who did nothing in the first half, suddenly became very active as if he had changed his body.

Several times threatened the goal guarded by Jiwen, and even shot a goal and almost scored, scaring Mancini.

The difference between the same player in the first and second half is so big?

What happened during the intermission?

Could it be that Suarez took medicine?

Mancini quietly glanced at the bench at Crystal Palace, and saw that Chen Ran was still sitting in his seat like before, and was puzzled.

However, although I couldn't figure it out, Mancini did not delay what he should do.

Originally, he just arranged for Kroo Toure to be the one who was responsible for the control of Suarez. Now, he ordered another central defender to come to Scott for double-teaming.

One is responsible for close-up guarding, and the other is responsible for assisting defense and protection.

This time, Suarez, who had just disturbed Manchester City's defense line, suddenly became silent again.

Seeing that his adjustment had been effective, Mancini breathed a sigh of relief.

However, Mancini soon found out that he had underestimated Suarez.

When Vardy snatched the ball from Petrov's feet again, he drove along the right line.

Discovering that the situation was not good, Manchester City's left-back Drente rushed up to intercept Valdi.

Drenter is a typical full-back. He is not tall but very flexible, fast and has good skills.

Vardy wanted to use his speed to force his breakthrough Drente, but after trying several times, he couldn't get rid of his opponent.

In order to avoid losing the ball and being hit by Manchester City to counterattack, Vardy had no choice but to force a cross under Drent's interference.

In this case, the quality of the crossing will naturally not be much better.

As Vardy tried too hard, the ball flew directly over Manchester City's penalty area and turned outside the penalty area line.

At this time, Suarez quickly determined the landing point of the ball and ran out of the penalty area.

Seeing Suarez out of the penalty area, Kroo Toure and Lai Scott couldn't help but hesitate.

If they follow Mancini's request and run out of the penalty area with Suarez at the same time, Manchester City's penalty area will reveal a large gap.

Fortunately, Kroo Toure is experienced. While he asked Scott to stay in the penalty area, he chased Suarez and ran out of the penalty area.

However, this delay left Suarez with a chance to shoot.

After Suarez ran to the landing point of the ball, he jumped up directly to the goal and played a volley.

"Bang!"

The ball immediately drew a parabola and flew towards Manchester City's goal.

Goalkeeper Ji Wen reacted quickly and quickly moved his foot and pounced over.

However, Suarez's shooting angle was very tricky. Ji Wen tried his best but failed to touch the ball. He could only watch the ball flew into the net from his hand.

“GOAL!

!

!”

With Suarez's ultra-long-distance barb shot, Crystal Palace finally broke the deadlock at home, leading Manchester City 1:0, and the entire Emirates Stadium immediately became excited.

On the sidelines, Suarez's shocking goal made Mancini stunned.

This kind of shooting can be played by a fledgling young man?

When Crystal Palace did not play the main player, his team was actually broken by the opponent, which made Mancini a little discouraged.

However, Mancini quickly calmed down his emotions, and he immediately turned around and called Dutch striker Van Nistra Ruyin from the bench.

Although Van Nistra Ruyin is old and cannot support the entire game with high intensity, he is still more than enough to be a substitute.

After a simple warm-up, Mancini replaced Peter Louyin with Van Nistra Luyin to disguise Petrov, who was entangled by Valdy.

He asked Van Nistra Ruyin and Adebayo to form a double center, and Tevez was the front midfielder behind them to be responsible for the connection. Manchester City's formation also changed from 4411 to 4312.

Seeing Mancini's substitution adjustment, Chen Ran immediately understood in his heart that the other party was going to fight to the death.

Van Nistra Ruyin is 188cm tall, Adebayo is 192cm tall, Mancini is going to use two powerful high center forwards to hit Crystal Palace's defense line.

Without any hesitation, Chen Ran immediately called Southgate to his side.

"Garrez, you can inform Vidic to warm up now and use him to replace Beckham. Then Vidic and Kompany will serve as double center backs. Pepe will be with Mascherano,

Fabregas plays three midfielders together.”

"Okay, boss."

Although Chen Ran wanted the main players to rest and prepare for Real Madrid, he could not watch the three-pointers sweep away from him.

Soon, Mancini saw the substitution adjustments from Crystal Palace.

He shook his head with a wry smile. The Chinese man was always able to come up with the most appropriate way to deal with his moves in time, which made Mancini feel powerless.

Vidic, with Kompani and Pepe, under the control of these three people, neither Van Nistraluyin nor Adebayo could break through the goal guarded by Van der Sar.

In the end, with Suarez's amazing barb goal, Crystal Palace defeated Manchester City 1:0 at home.

While getting the key three-pointer, Chen Ran also got a "first-level blood recovery card" from the system.

Among other matches in this round of Premier League, there is another match that concerns the ownership of this season's league championship.

Manchester United, currently ranked second in the standings, faces Chelsea, which is ranked third in Old Trafford, with only two points apart.

As a result, Chelsea led by Ancelotti beat Manchester United led by Ferguson 2:1 at Old Trafford, overtaking their opponents and regaining the second place in the standings.

The Crystal Palace is a battle between snipe and clam, and the fisherman gains profit.
