Manchester City used the "whirlwind" tactic at the very beginning. If it weren't for goalkeeper Maurosi, then Manchester City would probably have scored at this time.

However, although Manchester City's attack was vigorous this time, as for their opponent Coventry, the players were still very calm.

Because, after experiencing the "devastation" of Premier League giants such as Liverpool and Arsenal, Coventry's players have gradually grown up.

Under the opponent's fierce and high-speed attack, Coventry's players reflexively entered a defensive state.

Because Coventry players all know that when facing a Premier League team, the best tactic is for everyone to defend well, and then Shen Xiao will organize the counterattack.

Therefore, when B Silva ran to the corner flagpole, Coventry's players also returned to the penalty area immediately.

At this time, B Silva placed the ball at the corner kick and then raised his right hand high.

At this moment, Coventry's penalty area was crowded with people, and Manchester City's offensive players and Coventry's defensive players were pushing each other in the penalty area.

"Beep!"

As soon as the whistle blew, the referee signaled Manchester City to take the corner kick immediately.

B Silva put down his right hand, and then he quickly kicked the football at his feet with his left foot.

However, the scene of the football flying high into the penalty area did not happen.

B Silva used his toes to pass the ball gently to De Bruyne who suddenly ran near the corner.

It turned out that B Silva took a tactical corner kick.

The football quickly came to De Bruyne's feet, and at this time, Coventry's left-back Ross quickly ran towards De Bruyne's position.

Seeing Rose coming, De Bruyne just stepped on the ball gently with his right foot.

After De Bruyne stepped on the ball forward, he made a pass towards the penalty area.

Rose was shocked when he saw this, and immediately jumped up quickly, bravely preparing to use his body to block De Bruyne's pass.

But De Bruyne's "pass" was still a feint.

After seeing Rose jumping high, De Bruyne quickly moved the football forward and passed Rose.

After a while, De Bruyne continued to cut inside the penalty area, but this time he was intercepted by Mason and O'Hare at the same time.

At this time, De Bruyne stopped attacking. After pausing the football at his feet, he immediately passed the ball towards the penalty area.

However, at this time, the penalty area was almost filled with players from both sides.

However, there were very few players in front of the penalty area, but at this time, Manchester City midfielder Gundogan appeared in front of the penalty area line.

At this time, Gundogan is undefended!

However, De Bruyne's cross pass came to Gundogan's feet very accurately.

And when the football came to Gundogan, he kept facing the football at this moment, just swiping his foot and giving it a powerful kick!

Gundogan made a long shot in front of the penalty area line.

The football flew towards the goal with great force again!

However, the speed of the ball was extremely fast, and Coventry's players were unable to block it.

Maurosi held his gloves tightly, then opened his arms, his eyes constantly watching the flying football.

Seeing the football getting closer and closer, Maurosi immediately jumped in the direction of the football without hesitation.

"Snapped!"

Maurosi successfully "unloaded" the football with his palm, but the football was bounced to the side due to too much force.

At this moment, Maurosi's second reaction was to quickly hold the ball under his body.

However, the penalty area at this moment was filled with players from both teams.

Dabo, who had been cooperating with the goalkeeper to defend, immediately kicked the football that rolled to his feet vigorously.

Dubbo made a successful clearance and the "threat" in the penalty area was temporarily lifted.

But at this time, the football flew far into Manchester City's second half.

Manchester City's center back Otamendi easily had the ball at his feet, but after receiving the ball, Otamendi did not immediately pass the ball forward.

Otamendi took the ball two steps and then slowly passed it back to goalkeeper Bravo.

However, the moment Otamendi passed the ball back, the Manchester City players quickly evacuated from the Coventry penalty area and quickly returned to their positions.

At this time, Manchester City's offensive and defensive transitions and tactical execution were quite impressive.

At this moment, Shen Xiao, who was standing in the backcourt of the stadium, had to admire the overall strength of the Manchester City team.

Because, when Manchester City started attacking, Shen Xiao was actually involved in the entire defensive process of the team.

However, what made Shen Xiao extremely distressed was that when he was participating in defense, not only did he not touch the football, but he also did not even touch the opponent's attacker.

Manchester City's passing seems to be very fast in transition, but if you think about it carefully, there are traces to follow.

That is when Manchester City attacked, they deliberately avoided Shen Xiao's point.

Even though Shen Xiao's defensive ability is as strong as that of a phenomenal football master, if he can't touch the ball and offensive players, then a defensive ability value of 120+ is of no use!

Unless Shen Xiao can "teleport", otherwise he can only stare at the opponent's fast passing tactics.

Because even though Shen Xiao is a "superman" in terms of football ability, he is not a "god".

Shen Xiao's football ability is much better than ordinary people, but he is still a "person" after all.

Not being able to unleash all his abilities made Shen Xiao feel quite depressed at this moment.

At this time, Manchester City, which had the ball, continued to launch its second attack.

However, it is no surprise that the Manchester City players still perfectly "avoided" Shen Xiao's position and attacked with a "no smile" route.

At this time, even fools could see that this was Manchester City's offensive tactic against Shen Xiao.

Faced with this roundabout tactic of his opponent, although Shen Xiao was so angry that he wanted to stamp his feet, there was nothing he could do.

It was like a powerful King Kong punching cotton directly.

Manchester City perfectly executed the finger-twisting tactics and adhered to the "no smile" offensive line.

However, while Shen Xiao smiled helplessly, he also had to admire the head coaches of these big clubs.

Because they are all master tacticians!

From Klopp, Mourinho, to Guardiola now, we have to admit their coaching and tactical level.

In fact, when Liverpool or Tottenham played against Coventry, the tactics formulated by their head coaches were actually very powerful.

It's just that they all met the "cheating player" Shen Xiao on the court.

It's like a game between the two parties. Shen Xiao is the "artificial intelligence" that has been systematically calculated.

However, Klopp and Mourinho rarely have time to study the incredible existence of Shen Xiao.

As Shen Xiao gradually became famous and more and more people studied him, Guardiola, as a world-famous coach, would certainly be able to find some "loopholes" between Coventry and Shen Xiao later on.

Manchester City chose to directly avoid Shen Xiao's bug. When attacking, they would not stupidly rush towards Shen Xiao's position like Erqi Er and Sun Xingmin.

Avoiding Shen Xiao's defense, it seems that Manchester City's offensive tactics are successful so far.

Because your defense, Shen Xiao, is indeed strong, but you have to come to my side!
