There is a kind of player on the court who is mediocre on the surface but indispensable. It is often called a ball-blind filter. Draxler at Wolfsburg has this kind of flavor. Besides, you really don’t have many highlight moments. Don’t say that.
Yi Zhe, even Xuerle can't compare to him.
But whoever treats this Schalke 04 youth academy winger as a loser is truly a fool.
After joining for a season, he finally ushered in his highlight moment, 1v3, including Kompany, who is definitely one of the top central defenders in European football... De Bruyne does not know him, so this face is true.
It's a snapping sound.
Eight minutes, 1:0, total score 2:1.
Pellegrini's face turned gloomy. Less than ten minutes into the game, the game seemed to be heading in the direction he least wanted to see.
"Ouch——"
Huge cheers erupted at the Volkswagen Arena, which was the best stimulus. De Bruyne tried to send a direct pass behind the defense, but Gustavo directly slid and stretched his toes in front of him, attacking the former
My teammates are not polite at all.
"Louis! Perfect! This is his advantage!"
Even Gustavo was stimulated. Although he was often ignored at Wolfsburg due to his appearance, seeing De Bruyne show off various back-heel dribbling skills in front of him was a must for everyone.
Angry. Not to mention the main midfielder of the Brazilian national team.
In fact, Wolfsburg has many players who are more powerful than famous, but they are often ignored in the star-studded arena of the Champions League.
Draxler once again sent a 45-degree cross from the wing. Otamendi jumped high in the middle, but he appeared to be on top. Bendtner quickly inserted directly from behind him and grabbed Kopa.
Ni smashed the ball into the blind spot in front of him.
"Nick——"
Pellegrini was so frightened that he jumped up from the coaching bench, but the ball hit the far post on the left with a bang. Zabaleta, who hurriedly rushed back to the penalty area, fell to the ground to make a clearance.
At this time, the camera turned, and everyone saw De Bruyne's eyes narrowed and his eyebrows knitted together. However, his appearance did not indicate the danger of the situation at all, because he was quite cute and inexplicable.
A little happy.
"Kevin seems to be thinking what can he do? But what can he do?!"
Reece Lubert has almost entered the winning mode. This is confidence. No one can overturn Wolfsburg here, not even De Bruyne, who was once the most familiar.
But the Manchester City midfielder still has to press forward, and Pellegrini can still see opportunities.
Fernandinho pushed forward with the ball forcefully, resisting Gustavo's pressing and launched an attack all the way forward. This was a confrontation between the two midfield partners of the Brazilian national team, and then Fernandinho went to
With a slight push diagonally from the side, De Bruyne rushed up and dunked Dante's press at the front of the penalty area, instantly allowing a gap in the front of Wolfsburg's goal.
"oh--"
Wolfsburg fans almost jumped to their feet and booed.
However, De Bruyne did not take off his foot and passed the ball to Nasri who came in from the wing with a flick of the ball.
De Bruyne deceived Nardo's prediction with a fake move of horizontal dribbling. When the Wolfsburg central defender turned around, Nasri had already quickly rushed in front of him to face Benario.
"Kevin - ow -"
Reece Lubet's eyes widened. Even if Benario saved this almost-killing single-handed goal, he was not as surprised as when he saw De Bruyne's pass.
"Kevin!"
But Yi Zhe is not anxious at all. It would be strange if De Bruyne doesn't even have this ability, and Manchester City's lineup today has a weak point.
In Yi Zhe's eyes, today there is only one Fernandinho in the Wolfsburg midfield who can defend. De Bruyne's defensive ability is almost unnecessary. As for the wing-backs on both sides...
Sabaleta and Kolarov felt desperate at the same time. Yi Zhe was in a deserted position in the midfield. Even if they wanted to assist the defensive midfielder, they just lost their defensive position and the next second they were watching.
The ball was hit to the empty backcourt completely behind them.
The atmosphere in the entire stadium was on the boil at any time, because Wolfsburg's wingers were going crazy on both sides, and Pellegrini's desperate lineup completely unleashed them. Wolfsburg's chances were always on the field.
"Nick!"
"Andre!"
"Oh oh oh——"
Such voices came and went, and the only thing the Manchester City commentators could do was to criticize the team verbally, because the scene was completely unworthy of the investment, let alone the ambition that this team should have.
"What kind of football does Pellegrini want to play? If you want to play with confidence and perfect control, that's not what he can do. We need a coach who really knows how to control the game!"
When he said this, the Manchester City commentator was drooling with envy, because Yi Zhe was controlling the field on the opposite side, calmly inserting every pass into their gaps, and the entire team's system was mobilized and exhausted.
The greatest despair on the court is knowing in your heart that a powerful opponent is standing in front of you and will perform all kinds of things for you!
Manchester City's formation today was to fight for their lives. It was even said that Pellegrini's goal was to score one more goal than Wolfsburg. For this reason, he didn't care how many goals he conceded, but the development of the situation exceeded his expectations.
Yi Zhe continuously dodged in the midfield to avoid the fights of Fernandinho and Zabaleta, and almost fell to the ground while losing his center of gravity and sent a pass behind the defense. Draxler quickly broke out of the defense.
, the attention of Manchester City's entire defense was shifted to the left.
"Julian! Julian!"
The attention of Manchester City's entire defense was attracted, but Draxler made an arcing pass in the next second and passed the ball directly behind Kompany. The Belgian central defender turned around, but Bente
Na quickly got behind him and shot a shot directly through the top of the goal.
"Nick——"
But it was not over. After Manchester City kicked off again, Yi Zhe quickly came up and grabbed Fernandinho's pass to De Bruyne, and once again sent a direct pass to the wing.
"Andre!
!
!
"
Schürrle dribbled the ball into the penalty area, dunked past Kolarov lightly, and then kicked off in front of him. The ball drew an arc in the air. Caballero stretched his body to the extreme to make a save, but he could only
He watched helplessly as the ball plummeted from the air into the far corner of the goal.
“Toooooooor!
!
!
!
"
Reese Lubet jumped up and yelled wildly, feeling unbelievable at the same time.
Is this the end? No suspense?
Is this Manchester City?
The best narration is the scene of Pellegrini sitting on the coach's bench in a daze, and the suspense ends a little too quickly.
Perhaps many commentators are still unable to adapt to a team that is not a giant standing in the Champions League final, but they suddenly realize that this season's Champions League should be interpreted in a different way.
