Liverpool's defensive glory is not much different from the previous teams, which is that they have strict foul tactics and strict defense.

Never give Glory a chance to get the ball for a long time. As long as the football stays under his feet for a few more seconds, Liverpool players will surround him and separate him from other players. As for other Manchester City players, they are all in a normal level and they are still enough to deal with it. Glory is not easy to deal with and needs special treatment.

So although Rongguang got some opportunities in this game, he was disturbed by Liverpool players. In the words of CCTV commentator He Ping, Liverpool defensive players are almost everywhere.

The long shot of Reiner just now was the best chance for Rongguang.

Because everyone thought he wanted to make a firm breakthrough at that time, but Glory just received the ball and shot directly without running aid, so Liverpool players had not reacted yet.

This is a rhythmic change.

Glory got some inspiration in this goal.

Perhaps adding some rhythm changes will make it more difficult for the other party to prevent because they don’t know what they will do next…

Liverpool led the score and also gained the upper hand in the field. Their possession rate reached 59%, which was almost 60%. You should know that this is at Manchester City's home court...

"It's hard for us to believe this is Manchester City's home court..." Motterson said.

"What's the matter? I still can't believe that Manchester City actually spent 177 million pounds to buy people this summer..." Alan Hansen continued to complain.

Mortson smiled.

As he was talking, Rongguang received the ball from Robinho.

Before receiving the ball, he leaned forward, allowing two Liverpool players who were defending him, Mascherano and Alonso, to think he was going to break through, so the two of them took a step back at the same time.

As a result, Rong Guang's body stopped, and he stopped the football under his feet and did not sprint.

Alonso reacted a little faster, as if he knew what Glory was going to - now the distance between them and Glory was widened. If Glory broke through in another direction at this time, they could only watch it.

So Alonso quickly took a step forward, intending to approach the glory again and hold on to him.

But just as he rushed up, Rong Guang suddenly started on the spot, gently tweaked the football to the left, followed by his left foot to block the football forward, while others passed by Alonso's side

"Fried croquettes," Motson shouted.

"Only Rong is normal," Alan Hansen didn't complain about Rongguang.

Just when everyone thought Glory would rely on his specialty "fried croquettes" to get rid of the two Liverpool players who were defending him, Glory was knocked down by Mascherano.

The cheer that had just sounded in the stands came to an abrupt end, and then... paused for a second and switched to a boo.

Manchester City fans gave the boo to Mascherano who was fouled.

The referee's whistle also sounded, and Mascherano made a foul, there was nothing to say.

※※※

"Oh foul foul," shouted Mortson.

Alan Hansen said next to him: "It is this trick that has been proven to be very useful in the past few games to deal with Rong. Although it has been criticized and not very brilliant, the effect is really good. Rong fell into the opponent's muscle jungle, fell endlessly, or was disrupted... He was also uncomfortable when he kicked...

Rongguang was knocked to the ground, and he did not get up immediately like he had been violated before.

Mascherano just hit his rib on his left side, which hurts a little, but that's not the reason why he doesn't get up on the ground.

Just as he was hit by Mascherano, he made a dodge move, and of course he did not dodge in the end.

So I was hit hard.

He thought of the similar situation when he led Werder Bremen to the first Bundesliga game. When he drove the ball forward, Dortmund's players rushed up fiercely. He did not dodge horizontally or fear, but turned around 360 degrees.

He walked around the opponent and scored his first official goal in European football.

The most important thing is not dodging, but whether you feel afraid in your heart.

Rongguang felt that in these games, when the opponent used a very large foul, especially when these actions came to his injured right ankle, he would have a subconscious fear of avoiding the opponent's foul and not let the opponent encounter it.

But the result of doing so is often...worse.

"For seriously injured players, the most difficult thing to recover is not the body, but... psychology." Sun Fengyang, who was sitting next to Debola in the box, said. "This is also the reason why so many experts were not optimistic about Rong's ability to return to the top. A champion-level player has more important courage. They all think that serious injury will erase Rong's courage. Judging from the previous games, Rong has this problem. Maybe he himself did not realize it, but this is subconscious..."

When Debola heard Sun Fengyang's words, she thought of what Rong Guang said to her: "Even if the head coach collapses, I won't collapse."

Psychologically cringe?

※※※

Because Rong Guang did not get up immediately, his teammates were very worried about him, and Mark Hughes also stood up from his seat for the first time and looked at the stadium nervously.

If Glory has something more, then he can now consider how to leave Manchester City with a relatively decent amount under the bombardment of the news media...

Just as everyone was gathering around and planning to see how Rongguang was doing, Rongguang got up by himself.

Berbatov planned to reach out to help, Rong Guang waved his hand: "I'm fine, Dimita."

Then he looked ahead and asked, "It's time for us to attack?"

After asking, he ran forward without waiting for his teammates to answer, ready to start the attack.

Berbatov looked at his back and didn't know what to say.

Mascherano's foul was not given a yellow card, he was just verbally warned by the referee.

Such physical collisions are very common in the Premier League, and there is no need to give a yellow card.

But if it is in the Bundesliga, Mascherano will definitely not be able to run away.

This is also a characteristic of the Premier League. Because of its tough style, many physical contacts are allowed, not as strict as other leagues’ penalty standards.

This also provides the basic conditions for Premier League teams to use foul tactics to curb glory.

In the Bundesliga, there were teams who tried to use foul tactics to curb glory, but on the one hand, the Bundesliga referee's penalty standard is relatively strict, and on the other hand... who dares to use such tricks to deal with Bayern Munich? That's the overlord of the Bundesliga. Do you want to mess around with Bayern Munich?

So in Germany, foul tactics died before they could be popularized.

Unexpectedly, in English football, it is now developed because of its glory.

The game continued, and although Glory won a frontcourt free kick for Manchester City, Manchester City did not take advantage of this free kick to score.

After the offense and defense changed hands, Liverpool attacked.

In terms of staffing and tactics, Liverpool is better than Manchester City.

The only thing that Manchester City can truly beat Liverpool is glory, and no one else is better than those Liverpool players.

Coupled with the foundation that Benitez laid for Liverpool and the HL spirit instilled by Daglish, this Liverpool team is indeed very strong.

They can even play against Manchester City away.

It is not safe to lead by one goal, they have to expand the score.

Within three minutes, Liverpool shot two consecutively, posing a threat to Manchester City's goal.

If Joe Hart hadn't performed well, Liverpool might have scored another goal.

When Hart threw Gerald's long shot under him, he heard a voice roaring: "Hart, hurry up, give the ball to Rong."

Only then did he notice that it was Ellano.

So he stood up and found that Liverpool had just been under pressure because of continuous attacks, and their overall formation was too high. Now their backcourt is empty.

Where is the glory?

He quickly found it, not too far ahead, but between the center circle and the top of the free throw arc.

Giving football to Glory is a good opportunity to fight back, but... Joe Hart saw Mascherano not far from Glory.

This Argentinian may not let himself do what he wants...

He defended Glory very strictly.

But...apart from that, are there any other ways we can threaten the other party?

Joe Hart kicked the football in front with a big foot.

He did not throw it to Rongguang directly with his hands. Although the accuracy was higher, it was of no use. Rongguang would fall into the other party's encirclement.

It would be better to kick the football directly into the frontcourt and let Rongguang play his speed.

If you want to get rid of defense like Mascherano, speed is the best way to do it.

※※※

Seeing Joe Hart kicking the football forward, Rong Guang started chasing the football.

Mascherano followed closely.

He is not as good as Glory in speed, but he did not give up because he knew that when Glory was about to catch the ball, he would definitely slow down.

That is your own opportunity.

"Joe Hart kicked the football forward. Will Rong Zai chase the ball become an excellent counterattack opportunity for Manchester City?" Motson raised the volume.

"It's probably difficult...Mascherano is still following Rong..." Alan Hansen jumped out and poured cold water on Manchester City fans.

The next two of them stopped talking and stared at the stadium.

The football flew in the air, flew straight through the midfield, chasing Liverpool's halftime.

In Liverpool's backcourt, it seemed a little empty because of the series of bombardment just now - most of the players rushed up to participate in the attack.

Now Liverpool players are running back with the football, intending to stop glory.

They also realized that this is indeed a good opportunity for Manchester City... no, for Glory
