Chapter 573: Biting off more than one can chew, Manchester Blue
October 26th, the eleventh round of the Premier League.
Manchester City meets Birmingham's challenge at home.
There were more than 60,000 fans at the venue.
Manchester City fans' confidence in the team is back.
As soon as the game started, Deng Kai kicked off the ball and hit a through ball.
Robbie Fowler reached his heart and completed a lightning goal.
Later, Ribery dribbled horizontally to the center and sent a wonderful pass. Roberto Baggio succeeded with a shot into the far corner.
Second half.
Adriano, who replaced Fowler, headed back and assisted Toure to complete the world-beating shot.
This is Adriano's second Premier League assist.
However, his goal account is still not open.
But he was no longer in a hurry.
As long as you integrate into the team, you will score goals sooner or later.
He's not a goal-scoring forward anyway.
He doesn't suck Team Kai's blood.
Ronaldo:???
Ronaldo: Who are you slandering?
In the end, with Deng Kai's corner kick in stoppage time and Hierro's header, Manchester City defeated Birmingham 4-3 and maintained their unbeaten home record!
In eleven league rounds, Deng Kai scored eight goals and six assists, ranking first in the Premier League in both statistics.
Among them, Henry's number of goals has equaled that of Deng Kai, and he is on the verge of overtaking him.
November 2nd, the twelfth round of the Premier League.
Manchester City vs Chelsea at home.
More than 70,000 fans poured into the scene!
On the one hand, the team’s undefeated home record is still there.
On the other hand, Chelsea is also very strong this season and has reached the top three in the Premier League in recent rounds!
Two blues, only one can shine in Manchester.
And this time, it's...
Dark blue!
Chelsea beat Manchester City 3-0.
Breaking Manchester City's unbeaten home streak!
During this period, Manchester City forward Fowler retired due to injury, which once made fans worry about his future.
Fortunately, after a dispute at the hospital, Fowler only suffered minor injuries.
He can even make it to the third round of the EFL Cup this week.
November 6th, third round of the EFL Cup.
Manchester City has met its opponent.
The bad news is that the opponent is Leeds United.
In the first round of the league, Leeds United beat Manchester City 3-0.
It also topped the Premier League standings after the second round and was still third in the Premier League in the fifth round.
But it has been declining since then, falling to 13th place in the Premier League.
It’s just one place higher than Manchester City, which got out of the relegation zone and returned to 14th place because of their win in the previous round!
Their league tasks are very heavy and the team has completely given up on other competitions.
So the good news is that Leeds United sent out a lineup of youth training substitutes for this game.
In comparison, Manchester City has bitten off more than it can chew.
They actually still put out the entire main lineup except for the veterans.
Aren't they afraid that they will fall back into the relegation zone again in the league?
Don't they know that their biggest task this season is to avoid relegation?
What are they hoping for?
EFL Cup semi-finals?
has no meaning?
Don't you want to take the bonus of more than 100,000 yuan?
amateur!
Since Manchester City was acquired by Mansour, the club has been exposed to amateurism from top to bottom, from the management to the uniform staff to the team.
You see, this is the result of the prince playing by himself.
Even if you come from the Middle East with a white cloth on your head, you still can't do it.
Unless your entire UAE-based Abu Dhabi consortium comes in person, it will be possible to form real competitiveness.
"Hello everyone, my name is Huang Jianxiang. I am strongly invited by my friends from the audience to bring this game to you." Huang Jianxiang is high-spirited and has the title of the first domestic football commentator. He is simply refreshed.
“Manchester City’s squad today is:
Torres, Fowler, Ribery
Toure, Essien, Deng Kai
Grosso, Chiellini, Thiago Silva, Maicon
Come to Man."
"Leeds United, oh... they made a sneak attack! These are not all substitutes."
"We have Robbie Keane on the front line. He has been in poor form recently and has been reduced to a substitute, but a player of this caliber may break out at any time. His threat cannot be ignored."
"In addition, Leeds United's attacker Alan Smith is a versatile player who has now joined the England national team. It is said that Manchester United appreciates this player very much!"
"In addition, Leeds United's youth midfielder James Milner is also worthy of attention. This player is very talented and may be the next Alan Smith!"
"At the back, Raul Bravo, a loan player from Real Madrid's youth training, has performed well recently. I wonder if he can prevent Robbie Fowler, who is in hot form recently!"
"This game is held at Maine Road, Manchester City's home ground... Yes, this is definitely good news for Manchester City."
On the Internet, a black fan named Kai Lao Pa is rebutting Huang Jianxiang's explanation in real time: "Good news? Manchester City's so-called unbeaten home game has become a joke."
"How about being beaten 3-0 by Chelsea!"
"Leeds United's lineup today is already half the main force. They obviously intend to continue playing in the EFL Cup. Manchester City will definitely be eliminated today!"
"Didn't you see that Manchester City only had 40,000 fans in attendance today?"
This black friend saw the decrease in fans at Manchester City's home stadium.
But they didn't consider that this was just an insignificant EFL Cup.
If nothing else, this will be the most popular game in this round of the EFL Cup.
With Huang Jianxiang's introduction, the competition officially began.
In the eighth minute, Deng Kai received a point from Ribery's inward cut and entered the penalty area, successfully causing a foul on Raul Bravo.
Yellow dot!
On Manchester City's side, Deng Kai undoubtedly stepped up and took the penalty kick, which he personally made.
Ten seconds later.
There were cheers from the scene.
"Beautiful! Deng Kai's penalty kick is still very stable! The last time he missed a point was in the Champions League final last season!"
"Facing Real Madrid goalkeeper Casillas, Deng Kai missed the penalty kick."
"But then he saved Zidane's penalty kick as a goalkeeper and launched a fatal counterattack! It was the most classic team counterattack in the entire history of the Champions League!"
"One to zero! Deng Kai helped Manchester City take the lead! This is his sixth goal in the EFL Cup! He still occupies the top scorer list in this competition!"
Ten minutes.
Deng Kai held the ball at the top of the arc and made a fake pass to attract young player James Milner to raise his leg. He quickly kicked twice and completed a through crotch ball.
Robbie Fowler got a piece of cake in front of the small penalty area and pushed the ball into the goal.
Manchester City leads 2-0!
Fourteenth minute.
After Deng Kai confronted James Milner on the left, he used a vertical dodge to eat up the little turkey who was half a year younger than him, and sent a powerful cross pass.
Robbie Fowler ran smartly, completely getting rid of Raul Bravo's defense, and scored twice.
The ball is scored when the ball reaches the target.
Starting from the eighth minute, Manchester City scored three goals in just six minutes.
The winner of today's competition was directly announced.
