1428 A new blue moon

"Manchester City has finally begun to show its power to the world this season through an average of more than 100 million pounds a year in the past three or four years. However, this team still lacks elements. I think the first is experience, that is, the experience of Champions League. The Champions League are often matched between teams with different styles.

Manchester City's overall performance is not good in the Champions League, why say this?

Because today their opponent Liverpool is a team with diverse styles, rich skills and tactics in the Champions League and the league.

They are not only the defending champions of the Premier League, but also the defending champions of the Champions League!

This difficulty can be imagined.

So I am very looking forward to what kind of skills Mancini will use at Anfield today to fight against Liverpool.”

"Haha, Gary, I'm very curious, let's take a look at the list of both sides.

Liverpool 433.

Goalkeeper: Reiner.

Defenders: Johnson, Scotter, Thiago Silva, Baynes.

Midfielder: Kuyt, Gerald, Mascherano.

Forwards: Raul, Suarez, Qin Xiong.

Liverpool today put out their mature 433 offensive system at home. What is more surprising is that Kuyt appeared in the central defender today. What will happen to Koeman's approach will bring is unknown, and we will carefully observe it in the game.

Manchester City 41.

Goalkeeper: Hart.

Defenders: Richards, Kompany, Lescott, Krish.

Midfielders: Milner, Bari, Silva, Yaya Toure, Nasri.

Forward: Aguero.

Mancini did not send out a 433 formation today, but a slightly balanced 41. Today's lineup should be considered Manchester City's strongest lineup. Let's wait and see what will happen in the game."

The game opened the curtain amid Anfield's deafening cheers.

Manchester City took the lead in kick-off.

Even though Manchester City is not outstanding in controlling the scene, they are still very capable of slowing down the pace and entering the game state.

In the first half of the season, they built strong confidence and did not shrink from the face of Liverpool.

In the second minute of the game, Manchester City played smoothly and quickly from the left side of the frontcourt.

Nasri made a breakthrough on the left when Kuyt came to defend with his foot skills, so that Kuyt retreated, and then he cut across the middle and then knocked the ball across when Gerald came to press.

Yaya Toure then inserted into the dribbling position on the right side of the midfield.

At this time, Mascherano moved towards Yaya Toure's line, Yaya Toure passed the ball diagonally to David Silva in the middle of the penalty area.

Mascherano immediately intercepted, and David Silva blocked the ball into the left side of the penalty area.

Nasri, who instigated this offensive, strong incision.

He rushed through the gap between Johnson and Scotter, received a pass from David Silva in the penalty area, and then immediately swept the ball across the middle in front of the goal.

Aguero rushed past Scotter and grabbed a shot!

This is an excellent offensive opportunity!

After establishing David Silva as the core of the frontcourt organization, Manchester City has been able to make exquisite cooperation in positional battles.

But just as Aguero shot, a figure stood in front of him!

Thiago Silva releases the shovel and blocks it!

Aguero's shot hit Thiago Silva's thigh and bounced out!

"Manchester City launched a threatening offensive just as the game started. Fortunately, Thiago Silva fell to the ground in time to block Aguero's shot and intercepted him! Hahaha, this game will definitely be very exciting. Manchester City did perform better on the community shield before the season, and it was completely new!"

The blocked person went out and cleared the sideline at Mascherano's feet.

Liverpool's defense doesn't seem to be too reassuring today.

In the 4th minute of the game, Yaya Toure's midfielder passed the ball diagonally to Milner on the right, which was a very timely offensive transfer.

Manchester City can now be said to have dual cores in front and back courts!

Yaya Toure can organize in the middle and backcourt, while Silva organizes to instigate threatening offensives in the frontcourt. This configuration is something that many wealthy families have once or now.

Milner made a cross at 45 degrees after pushing the offensive on the right.

Football has not passed Thiago Silva this time, and he headed the ball to clear the ball!

"Thiago Silva played the role of a defensive defensive needle after joining Liverpool this season! If it weren't for his existence, Liverpool might not have won so easily in many strong dialogue games, and he made Liverpool's defense more reassuring."

Liverpool didn't make a decent attack until the 7th minute of the game.

Gerald cooperated with Kuyt in the midfield and quickly passed the ball to the left.

Qin Xiong, who was retreating to receive the ball, did not pursue the offensive speed at the first time, because he wanted to see what Manchester City's defensive strategy is today.

Yaya Toure and Barry will not firmly defend the wing. When Qin Xiong is in control of the ball, only Milner will come to harass him.

When Milner stepped in to intercept, Qin Xiong suddenly started to dribble along the side road.

As he dribbled forward, Yaya Toure returned to the left position in front of the penalty area, as if waiting for Qin Xiong to change direction and cut across.

Obviously, after suffering too much from Qin Xiong, Manchester City has become more cautious and rational.

I won’t come up rashly to force him, and seizing the key position in the defensive area has become the primary defensive point.

Qin Xiong dribbled in front of Richards. Before Richards could react, Qin Xiong paused and drove the ball to the middle. Richards thought he would take the ball horizontally to challenge Yaya Toure, and Yaya Toure probably thought so.

The two of them came to double-team, but they didn't expect Qin Xiong to pull the ball to the sideline, and at the same time, their bodies turned backwards, changed their feet and pulled the ball again!

A Marseille swirl appeared under the gaze of all the spectators.

Qin Xiong and Richards passed by so elegant that they were intoxicatingly elegant.

The Red Army fans at the scene immediately applauded and cheered Qin Xiong.

But they didn't know what Qin Xiong was thinking when he passed by Richards.

"Today, I'll beat you up!"

After completing the Marseille swing, Qin Xiong took the ball diagonally to the inside.

At this time, Yaya Toure rushed into the penalty area to defend, and Suarez was trapped in multiple double-teams in the penalty area.

Qin Xiong passed the ball diagonally back in the gap between the people and passed it back to the position outside the top of the penalty area.

Gerald, who rushed up from behind, did not drag on the slumber, and shot out with a murderous intent!

The football flew straight to the left half of the goal, and Joe Hart jumped out of the bottom line immediately.

This is a world-class save!

After the save, Hart stood up and clenched his fists and roared in the field!

It seems to be declaring that the goal he defended will never let Liverpool score today! (To be continued.)
Chapter completed!
