"The ball...the ball went in! A wonderful personal performance! James Rodriguez!"
The huge cheers of the Southampton fans made the entire stadium seem to start to tremble. Ronaldo opened his arms and ran on the field. He nimbly avoided the excited teammates who rushed towards him one after another, and rushed to the visiting team's coaching bench.
Then he jumped up, jumped on Ji Ya's body, and started waving his fist vigorously.
The Colombian's handsome and bright smile at this moment left an indelible impression in the minds of many Southampton fans.
Let's turn the camera back half a minute.
Southampton completed a smooth attack. After receiving a pass from Vidal, Willian began to break through on the wing. He laterally got rid of Clichy's defense and then passed the ball to Vidal who followed up. Vidal could not help but
The ball was stopped and passed directly to Klose, who was holding the ball with his back in the penalty area. Klose did not stick to the ball, but moved the ball out immediately...
"Did you see that this is a good time to play the ball?" Ji Ya said to Giroud.
Giroud nodded sincerely. He had no objection to Klose. After all, he knew that even if Klose played the main role, he would not play in all games. He would still have many opportunities to play. At the same time, Klose's
Although his playing style is completely different from his, there is still a lot that I can learn from him.
The ball passed out happened to fall at the feet of Ronaldo. The Colombian was advancing forward at the time. After receiving the ball, he faced Lescott alone on the other side of the penalty area.
This is why Klose risked a passing error and completed this difficult pass as soon as possible.
His grasp of the timing and situation allowed him to complete this kick.
Facing the oncoming Lescott, Ronaldo did not panic. He first made a horizontal movement to get rid of Lescott, causing Lescott to make an emergency stop, and then dialed the ball back again, allowing Lescott's center of gravity to return again.
Offset, and finally with a flick of his ankle, he easily lifted the ball over Lescott's head!
Lescott looked up stupidly. At this time, Ronaldo had already passed by him, facing the falling ball, and fired a hearty volley!
Poor Hart once again saw a world wave...
The ball flew into the sky, then fell quickly and flew directly into the far corner of the goal!
Hart turned around to look, but all he could see was the ball bouncing in the net!
"Wonderful goal! A display of Ronaldo's gorgeous skills! I heard that Southampton spent 12 million pounds to buy this 20-year-old player, but just by watching his ball, everyone should know how much it cost.
worth!"
Mancini couldn't bear it anymore. Seeing that the first half was over in less than a minute, he left the coaching bench early and walked into the players' tunnel.
At the end of the first half, the score was zero to two, with the home team in the lead.
"Southampton leads Manchester City by two goals in the away game! It's incredible! But looking at the performances of Vidal, Willian, Ronaldo and Klose, this doesn't seem to be anything surprising...
"
During the halftime break, the commentators began to praise Southampton's outstanding performance. Jiya was also very proud. He praised the players' performance in the locker room, and then said that with Southampton's current tactics
If they keep playing, if nothing else happens, the victory of this game will be theirs!
As for what adjustments Mancini will make, Ji Ya can't tell yet, so he can only take it one step at a time.
Mancini is quite good at adjusting specific tactics. He is also the kind of head coach who dares to pile up four forwards to launch a wild attack at critical moments, but sometimes he is very hesitant, so it is quite difficult to guess his next step.
.
Unfortunately, Mancini made the right call this time.
"Our passivity in the first half came from tactics. This has nothing to do with you. It was a problem with my tactical arrangements... Aguero, prepare to go out in the second half." After Mancini returned to the locker room, he did not behave as he showed.
So angry, but calmly arranged the tactics.
Aguero nodded, he is a forward with strong scoring ability.
"De Jong, you have a good rest in the second half...Adam, David, you two recover some in the second half and go to the midfield to increase our midfielder's ball-taking and breakthrough capabilities. Their high-post press is mainly based on our midfielder's ability to get the ball."
On the basis of not keeping the ball, once we solve this aspect, they will have nothing else to think about." Mancini continued.
The Manchester City players nodded one after another. Seeing the coach being so calm, they calmed down too - it is true that the coach is the vane of the players at all times.
So what appeared on the court in the second half was a Manchester City team that had regained its composure and state.
"Mancini is really capable." Ji Ya looked at the field and thought to himself.
Although he still doesn't know how Mancini made tactical adjustments, he can restore the calmness and state of the Manchester City players who were confused in the first half of the game. This is his ability.
And Mancini's subsequent substitutions made him discover that Mancini had already noticed Southampton's current shortcomings.
The reason why we were able to suppress Manchester City in the first half was because we suppressed the technical elements of Manchester City's midfield in terms of running. Now, De Jong, who is purely defensive, is replaced by a forward. It seems that he is a little careless about his head and body, but
The opponent's two wingers were originally midfielders, and when they pulled back, the technical content of Manchester City's midfielder immediately increased.
"Will he change his tactics?" Ji Ya thought silently in his heart. In fact, in his opinion, Manchester City's current lineup is actually the most suitable to play 4, 4, 2, with David Silva and Nasri playing two.
An attacking midfielder on the wing can increase the number and technical content of the midfielder, and also solves the key to how to integrate Dzeko's tactical ability and Aguero's scoring ability-besides, they still have many players on the bench.
With a forward like Balotelli, it would be too cruel for three centers to compete for one main starting spot. If there are three centers for two positions, it would be much more reasonable.
However, if it was his own tactical suppression that forced Mancini to make tactical changes, Ji Ya didn't know whether this was a good thing or a bad thing...
"Tell the players, continue to press in the midfield in the second half. Now is the real test." Noriya called Benelli and said to him.
Benali nodded, although he didn't know why Ji Ya suddenly became serious, but since Ji Ya gave instructions, he had to carry them out.
Benali quickly passed Jiya's words to the players who were playing, and Jiya returned to his position, thinking about the next game.
He can now completely recycle his defense and maintain the two-goal lead, but this is meaningless.
Only by using this tactic and facing a harsher environment can we know where we need to improve!
The team that has been tested is the strongest team.
