"We all know that although Manchester City has not participated in many Champions League matches, our home results are quite good. Nearly 23 European home games have only lost one game. The enthusiasm and support of the home fans is our tomorrow. The biggest reliance, we will definitely do our best to dedicate a wonderful game to the fans!"
Man City coach Manuel Pellegrini was confident in his pre-match press conference.
As a Chilean engineer who has just taken over as the coach of Blue Moon, he certainly has to cheer for his team. After all, Manchester City is no longer the cat and dog who let the European giants score points, but a rising star of tomorrow.
But Long Shute slapped him with a smile:
"The rise of Manchester City in recent years is obvious to all. They are bound to become a force to be reckoned with in European football, but... definitely not this year.
Whether it is for Manchester City or Mr. Pellegrini, I am familiar with it (2009-10 season, Long Shute, who was still in Ajax, double-killed Real Madrid coached by Peggy in the first round of the knockout round, and then moved to Bayern Long Shute beat Manchester City again), I believe that tomorrow's game will be very exciting. "
Pellegrini's face suddenly turned green!
MMP, where did I offend you?
Everyone eats in football, why don't you show any sympathy? !
Be careful that my big blue moon buys you!

2 month 18 day.
Manchester City, Etihad Stadium (the standard translation was later changed to Etihad Stadium).
Compared with the sluggish Italy, the football market in England is much hotter. Although the tickets here are more expensive than in Italy, it can't stop the fans from cheering for the club.
In the evening of the day, more than 3000 Manchester City fans poured into the giant bowl-shaped stadium, and more than [-] Italian fans following AC Milan's expedition to England were suddenly surrounded by blue sea water.
Fans in Italy and England tend to be at odds. This has been reflected in many conflicts in the past. Therefore, the local police and security personnel are on the verge of an enemy, using tall barbed wire to completely separate the fans of the two sides. Come, so as not to cause another tragedy.
The Champions League theme song has been echoed throughout the stadium, and players from both sides lined up in the player tunnel.
"Mario, how does it feel to be back here?"
Seeing Balotelli muttering words with a serious expression, Long Shute couldn't help but want to tease him.
Bashen glanced at those former teammates wearing blue jerseys, shrugged slightly:
"I want to thank God for the reunion with Manchester City."
Long Shute was taken aback.
Balotelli clenched his fists:
"So... I will use 1000% of my energy to overthrow this opponent!"
-
Compared with two years ago, the lineup of this Blue Moon has not changed much:
Although the head coach has changed from Mancini to Pellegrini, the main frame composed of Joe Hart, Kompany, Yaya Toure, Silva, and Aguero is still solid, and only played on the wing. Enhanced and supplemented.
In AC Milan, Balotelli and De Jong belong to Manchester City's abandoned generals, but they are the main players in this Milan team. It can be seen that the financial resources of the two teams are actually not small. gap……
If it is in history, then Manchester City can indeed face the challenge of AC Milan with confidence, but due to the existence of Long Special, Blue Moon has obviously become the weak side, even if it is the local media in England and Manchester City's own media. Fans, all maintain a cautious attitude towards the game.
Compared with his predecessor Mancini, who focused on defensive counterattacks, Pellegrini pays more attention to control and offense. This is also the reason why he was able to lead Real Madrid to the league runner-up with the highest points in history in the 2009-2010 season.
Although the tactical play he implemented in Manchester City is not as good as the tiki-taka of the peak Barcelona, he has also formed a very strong situation with Rodgers' Liverpool this season, beating Mourinho's Chelsea and Wenzhou. Greg's Arsenal, as for their city rivals, Moyes' Manchester United... Sorry, since Manchester United is almost out of sight in the top half of the standings, Ferguson's chosen successor seems to be about to leave class... …
For Long Shute, although Manchester City is stronger than two years ago, he has no pressure-because his strength has improved faster.
It is true that the overall strength of the AC Milan team behind him is far inferior to the peak Bayern, but... this is the reason why he chose to join Milan.
He wants to lead a second-tier team to the greatest victory! -
"CCTV, CCTV, what you are watching now is the first round of the 2013-14 UEFA Champions League quarter-finals, Manchester City vs. AC Milan at home, I am Duan Yixuan..."
It was the first late-night live broadcast after three months, and Duan Yixuan reappeared in the background sound.
Due to the existence of Long Shute, Serie A officially adjusted most of AC Milan's games to 22 o'clock in China time to ensure that more Chinese viewers could watch the live broadcast at the first time, but UEFA did not have this awareness, so If you want to watch the Champions League game, you can only wait in front of the TV in the early hours of the morning.
Duan Yixuan introduced while watching Manchester City take the ball:
"Manchester City and AC Milan are both the favorites in their respective leagues. This game is also a strong matchup that everyone is looking forward to. This season, with the joining of Long Shute and the recovery of Kaka's status, Milan has regained its magical light , They maintained a complete victory in 23 rounds of the league, breaking the winning streak of the five major leagues and leaving Juventus behind. In the Champions League, they teamed up with Ajax to squeeze the dream team Barcelona out of the group stage. To everyone's surprise, what kind of performance can they show against Manchester City today?"
-
Long Shute's opponent today is still Yaya Toure, and the Ivorian midfielder also clearly remembers how embarrassing the No. [-] player on the opposite side made him two years ago.
So Yaya Toure decided to get all his energy up from the first second, and let the whole of Europe see that the Premier League maximum salary of 30 pounds a week in his hands... is definitely not for nothing!
The football finally reached Toure's feet. With a swish of his long legs, he swung the football towards the middle of Milan at a fast speed. Suddenly, there was a kind of heroic arrogance that was blowing under his feet and no one in the world could stop him!
Who can stop me?
Who dares to stop me?
Who……
Yaya Toure's right foot suddenly kicked in the air!
The football that was still in front of me just now... just disappeared? !
If you don't see it, it's gone, but what's infuriating is...the one who broke the football under his feet...isn't Long Shute!
It's the abandoned player from the Netherlands who was sold off by Manchester City because he couldn't compete with him... Nigel De Jong!
"De Jong's steal! It's so fierce! Even a top midfielder like Yaya Toure is overwhelmed by his momentum!"
Duan Yixuan praised casually:
"De Jong didn't stick to the ball, he gave the ball to Long Shute immediately! Can Long Shute stage a quick counterattack? Huh?"
-
When Yaya Toure turned around, he didn't see a sharp sword piercing the green field. The player wearing the red and black No. 8 just passed the ball to another player with 22. Feet, no intention of breaking through with the ball at all.
Toure spit, and hurriedly ran towards his position.
Duan Yixuan patted his thigh:
"It's a pity! Manchester City's defensive line remains intact. Long Shute has no chance to drive straight in. Now that Yaya Toure has returned to his position, there are even fewer vacancies to find..."
Xu Yang, the guest who partnered with him, actively offered words and suggestions for Milan:
"Long Shute should still try a strong attack. Generally speaking, at the beginning of the game, the players' attention will not be concentrated immediately. Maybe the opponent will have a loophole in a sudden attack, especially Manchester City's defender is still famous. The colander Demichelis..."
As soon as his words fell, Milan's midfield suddenly moved.
Balotelli retreated slightly from Manchester City's penalty area, while Kaka and Shalawi advanced obliquely along the two sideways, and Manchester City's defense line also shrank inward.
But Pellegrini's team did not completely retreat to the depths of the penalty area, because he had to prevent long-range shots from Long Special and other opponents, so Yaya Toure still blocked Long Special's shooting line , can be destroyed at any time.
In addition to Toure, Navas and Kolarov are also cruising beside Longshute from left to right to prevent him from cooperating with Shalawi and Kaka, while Negredo and Silva cut off the The line of his backward pass.
"Manchester City double-teamed Long Shute with five players in the midfield?"
Even an amateur commentator like Duan Yixuan couldn't help being surprised after seeing the situation clearly.
Xu Yang analyzed it from a professional perspective:
"In the media, how to deal with multiple teams is often used to describe a player's strength, but in fact, many photos are a matter of angle. In a game, there is rarely a situation where a player is specifically double-teamed, because it will affect the overall situation. The tactics are out of balance. But... this time is obviously different, Pellegrini is going to use this kind of tactics to make Long Shute fall into a single fight and fall into a tight siege..."
Long Shute, who was fighting alone and surrounded by heavy siege, suddenly moved!
Yaya Toure, who was calm and focused, stood a few meters away. He opened his arms slightly, and his center of gravity sank again.
windy.
The wind suddenly rose!
Toure's eyes flashed instantly!
He saw that group of red and black shadows rushing straight towards him!
That lightning bolt seemed to reach its highest speed in the blink of an eye!
No direction?
No turn?
Not a feint? !
Hitting someone with the ball... is also a foul!
Hit it!
Dead man!
When the red and black afterimage rushed into his arms with an unstoppable momentum, Toure's eyes widened uncontrollably, but his pupils shrank to the extreme in an instant!
Didn't hit? ! -
"puff!"
The gust of wind just slapped him in the face, and he sat back on his buttocks!
His eyes were empty, only the astonished faces of Silva and Negredo!
What about people? !
There is only one question mark in Yaya Toure's mind.
He turned his head abruptly, only to see that the gust of wind was still howling!
"Oh!"
Long Shute kicked directly outside the penalty area!
The opposite goalkeeper is the long-range background king...Joe Hart!
Is this something to consider? !
1-0!
