Chapter 67 Nothing can be done
"That game will definitely be exciting."
When Pellegrini said those words, even he didn't believe it himself.
What's so exciting about playing against a British Championship team?
hehe.
Since arriving at Manchester City, he has been going well.
I thought Kai Lai Wai would encounter some difficulties, but I didn't expect everything went smoothly.
First in the Premier League and first in the Champions League group.
The whole team has high morale and competes for the championship on all four fronts.
That feels so good.
If he really gets what he wants that season, then he will be Manchester City's genesis as a meritorious coach.
Of course, he will definitely become a super coach in international football.
Although he has been in the spotlight for many years, Pellegrini is still a first-class coach, not a super coach.
The reason is not because there are too few honors.
He once dominated the South American football world, winning the AFC Champions League title, and also won the Copa Libertadores title.
But after coming to Europe, there has never been a decent champion.
Even though he led Villarreal to become the runner-up in La Liga and the semi-finals of the Champions League, he was still convincing.
And I tried to drive a Galactic Battleship, but it turned out that it didn't matter, and I was disappointed.
Now coming to Manchester City, he is looking forward to reaching the top.
Right from the start of that season!
Manchester City sent out many substitute players in that game.
Main goalkeeper Joe Hart still starts.
The back four is Kolarov, Lescott, Kompany and Zabaleta.
Double defensive midfielder Xavi Garcia and Rodwell.
Three attacking midfielders: Milner, Nasri and Navas.
Lone striker Dzeko.
For example, core players such as Aguero and Fernandinho did not even make the 18-man roster.
Even without those substitute players, playing for Leicester City is enough.
In the live broadcast room, the commentator is introducing the starting list.
“Man City almost had a full substitute lineup in that game.
"Aside from whether goalkeeper Joe Hart and captain Kompany are definitely the main players,
"Other players are just substitutes.
"Despite this, they are still more than one level above Leicester City.
"Look at the starting players at Leicester City,
"Drinkwater, De Laet, James,
"Those are not former members of Manchester United's youth team, and they are not even qualified to enter the first team.
"Whether Xia was loaned out directly, she would have no chance at Manchester United.
"And the likelihood that they see him coming back is very slim.
"Vardy, a kid who used to play in the eighth tier,
"It's very Morgan, Konchesky and others, what level are they at?
"It's completely different from Manchester City!
"They can lead in the English Championship, but because the English Championship has no skills, there will be mismatches.
"If they are lucky enough to reach the Premier League, I believe it will only be one season and they will go back to play in the familiar English Championship.
"Ha ha!"
The commentator's words were very ugly, almost mocking Leicester City.
At this time, in the center of the court, players from both sides were already in place.
Will Leicester City return with a huge defeat as he said, will there be a miracle?
See you in 90 minutes!
The whistle blows and the game begins!
Manchester City kicked off first.
The ball went to the east of Dzeko's feet and was passed back.
Milner received the ball and hit Nasri.
After a few passes, Manchester City's entire team was aligned.
Andy King pounces on Nasri!
He wanted to seize the opportunity to steal the ball!
Vardy and Chris Wood are also sprinting quickly!
If the interception is successful, they will immediately launch a counterattack!
Could it be that easy?
Facing Andy King, Nasri easily pulled the ball sideways!
Instantly avoided the press!
Not only that, after Nasri avoided it, he quickly sprinted with the ball!
Drinkwater and James, who were facing each other, did not expect Nasri to be so fast!
The two of them quickly speed up and attack from a pincer!
But it’s too late!
Nasri passed between the two of them like a swimming fish!
Decisive diagonal pass to the right!
Navas passes between the two centre-backs!
Catch the ball!
Take a decisive step at the penalty area line!
Push into the far corner of the goal!
Schmeichel fell to the ground to save!
But it's still a little late...
"The ball went in!
"1 to 0!
“That collaboration was so wonderful!
"That goal was so easy!
"What did he just say?
"The strength gap between the two teams is too big!
“It’s not a wrong leg at all!
"The game has only started less than a minute ago.
"Manchester City scored against Leicester City!
“He was sure that that goal would be the beginning of a big victory!
"Let them wait and see!"
There was applause outside the Etihad Stadium!
Manchester City fans are in a good mood!
The Leicester City fans watching the away game were a little dumbfounded.
So, then the ball is lost?
what's the situation?
Not only were the fans confused, but the players present were also a little confused.
Why did you lose the ball?
How did you lose the ball?
Drinkwater and James glanced at each other wrongly, both of them still in silence as they were just passed by Nasri.
Pearson, who was on the sidelines of the court, shouted to the Hanxuan players to calm down.
The game starts again.
Leicester City regrouped and organized their attack.
Unexpectedly, they would have another accident soon.
In the 4th minute of the game, Drinkwater passed the ball to Xia Xing.
Xia Xing made a long pass from the left wing, and the ball landed at the foot of James on the right wing.
Because Xia Xing attracted the defense, James was relatively empty.
After receiving the ball, James quickly moved forward!
Start sprinting along the side road!
Manchester City left back Kralov has just made an assist and cannot come back for the time being!
Isn’t that a good opportunity!
Midfielder Rodwell is grabbing for it!
James has accelerated!
Can you just rush into the edge of the penalty area, and Ye Chang's huge impact is coming!
James was knocked out directly!
The ball was lost!
No, Manchester City captain Kompany!
Kompany is definitely the most requested player in Manchester City's current squad.
Not even one.
His solid defense is the key to the team's success this season.
At this time, he successfully intercepted the ball and made a long pass!
Kolarov, who had just failed to return to defense in the frontcourt, appeared exactly on the trajectory of the ball!
He accelerated his sprint and directly used his body to resist Manchester City right back Moore!
Get to the bottom line!
Cross the ball!
High center forward Dzeko is in place!
Leap high and hit the goal with a header!
The ball hit the net hard!
2 to 0!
"A textbook header!
“Excellent!
"2 to 0!
"Man City scores another goal!
"The opening only took five minutes,
“Man City scored two goals in a row!
"What suspense was there about that game?
"He guessed something,
“You won’t score a double-digit score tomorrow, right?
"Ha ha ha ha!"
After scoring another goal, Manchester City players played more easily.
After the restart, Leicester City's two attacks were neutralized.
But Manchester City's offense threatens Leicester City's goal at all times.
In the 10th minute of the game, Manchester City right back Zabaleta also assisted.
"Zabaleta hits the middle!
"The ball went to Nasri's feet!
"Nasri passes back!
"Xia quickly chased back, but Leicester City's defensive investment was not enough!
"Drinkwater helps defend!
"Zabaleta made a cross!
“The Leicester City captain made a great contribution that time!
"He pushed the ball out of the penalty area...
“It’s not over yet!
"Nasri takes the ball!
"He stopped the ball with his chest and volleyed!
"The ball flew into the dead center of the goal!
"The ball went in!
"World wave!
"3 to 0!
"Faced with Manchester City like that, what can Leicester City do?
“There’s nothing they can do!
"You can let others slaughter you!"
