192. Inattention
"Paris Saint-Germain played more positively at the beginning of the second half. I don't know why it's silence again now?" He Wei didn't understand the situation. Logically speaking, Paris Saint-Germain played well at that time.
"Ancelotti is also worried about his defense. If Manchester City gets two away goals, it will be a big trouble, which will be a heavy blow to their morale!" Zhang Wei explained.
"But now it seems that Paris Saint-Germain has too few opportunities!"
"There are indeed fewer opportunities, but if Paris Saint-Germain can get good efficiency, it is not impossible for Manchester City to completely block the opponent. In fact, when playing against Malaga or Dortmund, the opponent also got some opportunities, which is a good opportunity! The most important thing for Paris now is to improve the quality of the offensive. I think they should do a good job on the wing! After Lavic and Ibrahimovic got the ball, they should show their personal abilities and choose to break through in the frontcourt. It is also quite good if they can win some set-piece opportunities in the frontcourt!" Zhang Wei gave his own opinion.
Paris Saint-Germain has a 442 formation, but it is roughly the same as Manchester City in its formation. Pastorre is actually from a front midfielder, so he rarely goes to the side to cooperate with the bottom. Lucas on the other side is the explosive point.
Lucas did not play this out. Zhang Wei felt that Lavic should be on the sidelines in position, so he just played as a single striker.
As for set pieces, this is indeed a good way to score. Beckham's free kick skills are still there and can threaten Manchester City.
In the 67th minute, Manchester City almost expanded the score. This time it was a serious positional battle. After Manchester City's vitality was concentrated on the right, a horizontal transfer suddenly came. Kolarov made a cross from the left, Dzeko headed the ball and concentrated the side post. After Paris hurriedly cleared the ball, Toure made a long shot from the outside, and Siligu made a wonderful save.
Wen Sheng shouted that it was a pity. What a wonderful thing it would be if he could score two goals away from home. What a pity, what a pity!
The fans in Paris couldn't help but exclaim, thankfully.
Silva and De Bruyne made a short corner kick and made a cross. Manchester City failed to touch the ball. After Silva cleared the ball, Beckham took the ball from the outside and tried to counterattack. As a result, Milner from Manchester City took the ball without hesitation and directly pulled Beckham down and made a tactical foul!
The players in Paris are very terrifying. After the referee Stark blew the whistle, they immediately sent it. De Bruyne and others expressed dissatisfaction with the opponent's quick sending, but Stark turned a blind eye. Paris actually made a quick counterattack. Lavic dribbled the ball for dozens of meters, and then passed it back to Lucas who was inserted. Lucas was very smart in handling the ball. He made a reaction time difference and stopped the ball directly three meters away. Then he used his speed to snatch Kolarov and then entered the penalty area. Although there was a lot of gap in the middle, he did not pass it to Lavic, but chose to shoot himself.
Navas and Milner did not form a good encirclement and had a bad position. Lucas's choice was unexpected again, and there was nothing to say about the result. Paris relied on this counterattack and Lucas scored the equalizer goal!
Ancelotti was so excited that he raised his fists to celebrate. Only when he met, he knew how terrifying the team of Manchester City was. Especially when they were leading, Paris created fewer opportunities and shots, but unfortunately they were not that kind of obvious opportunity. Several shots were just an increase in the number of shots, and there was no threat to Navas at all.
Wen Sheng shouted loudly on the court, expressing dissatisfaction with Paris' quick-selling set-piece.
"There is no problem with this ball! There is no problem with Stark without whistling!" No matter what Wen Sheng thought, Zhang Wei had already defined it first, "Manchester City is a little relaxed. At this time, they should stand alone in front of the ball. At least you have to stop the opponent from making a quick call! This kind of mistake should not be made!"
From Stark's perspective, this ball is too coincidental!
After Milner made a tactical foul, he quickly retreated because there was no one in the backcourt. The referee Stark actually wanted to give Milner a yellow card. As a result, Paris had already sent the ball and he was too lazy to blow it. Milner escaped the yellow card punishment, but the price was a bit expensive!
What Zhang Wei said is completely right. After all, it is your own problem in Manchester City. Milner is right to actively retreat. What are the others doing?! Why not stop the opponent?!
"This is the opportunity you mentioned by Director Zhang. As long as you make good use of these opportunities, Manchester City will still be uncomfortable!" He Wei said.
"We used to meet Barcelona in the Super Cup. The Barcelona led by Guardiola is so strong, and their control is also very strong, but what did we rely on to defeat them at that time?! It was to rely on these similar opportunities and efficiency to defeat them! In terms of strength, the two teams are divided into strength, but the winner is often at that moment, so the players need to keep their attention in the whole game!" Zhang Wei remembered the game when Crystal Palace defeated Barcelona 2:0. Barcelona was the advantage in that game, but Crystal Palace used the bus defense counterattack to solve the battle. As long as there were few opportunities and effective!
The effects of 1:1 and 1:0 may be similar for Manchester City, but the concepts of 1:1 and 1:2 are completely different. If it is a draw, Manchester City is still the dominant side, but if Paris Saint-Germain overtakes, the game will become 1:2, which is undoubtedly something that Wen Sheng is absolutely unwilling to accept.
So after Paris Saint-Germain scored, Wen Sheng changed his strategy, his offense was not very active, and he always tried to control it. Paris Saint-Germain's momentum came up, and Matuidi frequently inserted into the frontcourt to intercept and steal, and did not allow Toure to control it calmly.
Wensheng allowed the team to recover a lot, and the change in defensive strategy allowed Paris Saint-Germain to take advantage. They scored a climax of the offensive in the next few minutes. Ibrahimovic finally had room to play. One of them, the volley near the penalty area was quite exciting, almost helping the home team overtake the score.
Wen Sheng was also very anxious on the sidelines and kept shouting, asking the players to pay close attention to two-point control.
In the 74th minute, Wen Sheng started to substitution and replaced Silva with Mane. It was not that Silva performed poorly, but the team needed to have a point that could be promoted with speed in the counterattack. Aguero was simply suitable for long-distance raids.
After Silva came off the court, Manchester City began to attack Mane's side, just behind Paris Saint-Germain. Wen Sheng let Dzeko move to this side, and the speed and height doubled the Paris defense on the right.
This move is really good. Mane has only average opportunities this season. He is really not too many, but he wins because he can run at a young age, and he is fast, and he dares to fight head-on with his opponent. It is difficult for him to defend Yalai. Unfortunately, this young man's way of playing is lively. In fact, the last pass is always almost done, and he is not very good at cutting in.
