Green Journey

Chapter 270 Strong attack and counterattack!

"Mahrez wasted Chu Zheng's long-distance raid this time, and the opportunity created for him after passing several people in a row!"

"In fact, Mahrez played this ball very well, with angles and strength, but Joe Hart seems to be in a particularly good state today!"

"Speaking of which, do you think that Chu Zheng's dribbling skills have improved significantly recently!" Fan Zhiyi suddenly asked with a smile, "Look at his breakthrough all the way just now, every change of direction and pass was stuck at an almost perfect timing superior."

Zhang Lu nodded, laughed straight, and said: "Especially whoever scored the ball, the timing is perfect. If the ball is faster, it may directly hit Otamendi's feet, and if it is slower, it may be missed by Otamendi." Intercepting is really a bold and bold artist!"

In the sideline coaching area, Pellegrini is still in shock.

Even before the game, he guessed that Leicester City, who were playing away, would play their best defensive counterattack tactics, but the counterattack speed just now was a bit too scary.

In front of Manchester City's goal, after successfully saving the ball, Joe Hart got up and roared.

At this moment, the unlucky goalkeeper who often became the background board of the world wave was extremely excited.

The last time he was so excited was in the 2014/15 Champions League match with Barcelona in the - season.

In that game, he beat Barcelona's MSN team and shut himself up. At this moment, he seems to have found the wonderful feeling of that game.

Soon, Leicester City took a right corner kick.

Chu Zheng jumped up in front of the penalty area and shook his head to attack the goal, but although he hit the ball, he couldn't hold it down, and the ball finally hit the post and flew out of the baseline.

Since then, Leicester City's offensive has come to an end.

In the following time, Manchester City continued to attack with the ball.

Knowing that the formation is too high, Leicester City will fight back, but there is no way, this is the Etihad Stadium, their home court, they must attack, must win, and the fans must explain.

Under the continuous strong attack, Manchester City soon threatened Leicester City's goal.

In the 9th minute of the game, Sabalite took the ball outside the right side of the Leicester City penalty area.

Seeing that Albrighton in front of him was firmly stuck in his position, and he was obviously wary of his breakthrough from the wing to the bottom, Zabaleta chose to pass back diagonally to David Silva in the rib.

As soon as David Silva got the ball, Kanter, who was guarding Yaya Toure in the right rib area at the top of the arc, went straight out.

But Silva, as one of the few top midfielders in today's football, his foot skills can beat Kanter in seconds, and even his physical flexibility is no worse than Kanter.

Facing Kanter, he flicked his left foot to the left, and then quickly started to follow up laterally.

But Kanter also reacted very quickly, quickly following up the defense horizontally, constantly stuck Silva tightly, and even stuck up to him for death entanglement.

Seeing that there was no way to get rid of Kanter, Silva turned his back to the Leicester City penalty area.

The moment he blocked Kanter behind him, he suddenly smashed the ball to the left and turned 360 degrees, causing Kanter to lose his balance and squat.

After successfully getting rid of Kanter's harassment, David Silva quickly sent a kick through the ribs.

At the moment of passing the ball, Sterling in front of Huth quickly completed his turn and overtook directly from the left side of Huth with a super starting speed.

Outside the upper right corner of the small penalty area, Sterling, who threw Huth behind him, caught up with the ball and kicked it up.

But Schmeichel's form is also very good today.

Facing the incoming ball, Schmeichel quickly attacked, and at the moment Sterling shot, he directly lay his body in front of the ball, just in time to hold the ball firmly in his arms when Sterling left his feet.

"Manchester City's attack on the right has slowly revealed his attack power under the leadership of David Silva!"

"The two central defenders of Leicester City, Huth and Morgan, are actually afraid of this kind of through ball!"

"Yes, these two turn around slowly. Facing small and fast forwards like Sterling and Aguero, it is difficult for them to keep up even if they are prepared!"

"Indeed, Leicester City must pay attention to this kind of penetrating ball in the ribs, especially David Silva!"

"Kanter was a bit reckless in his attack just now!"

"David Silva, a Spanish technical midfielder, is not afraid of you robbing him!" Zhang Lu laughed cheerfully.

On the sidelines, Pellegrini saw the team's attack, and a smile appeared on his face. He finally saw the scene he wanted to see.

But soon Pellegrini stopped laughing.

In the 14th minute of the game, Schmeichel took a goal kick.

The ball was pushed back to the center circle. Seeing Yaya Toure go up to grab the ball, Chu Zheng didn't stop the ball, jumped up and gave the ball to Huth on the center line and defense line.

Huth didn't stop the ball either, and directly made a long pass from the front side.

Albrighton unloaded the ball with his back from the wing and turned around to face the center.

Seeing that Zabaleta was coming aggressively, he slammed his left foot forward to the right, and directly started a horizontal dribble breakthrough.

But before running a meter, he made a long pass with his right foot.

At the moment of passing the ball, Vardy, who was located between Otamendi and Demichelis, just completed a back-and-forward run without the ball, and succeeded in anti-offside.

Vardy's starting speed directly smashed Demichelis behind him to pieces.

In the next second, on the left side of the penalty spot in the penalty area, Vardy jumped up to unload the ball.

But he didn't stop the ball with the first touch, and the ball jumped to Joe Hart on the end line of the small penalty area.

But Vardy landed a spot and quickly followed up, grabbing the ball with a kick before Joe Hart grabbed the ball.

As a result, Joe Hart, who was in an explosive state, quickly opened his arms, and the ball directly hit his crotch and bounced back.

The Achilles' heel was hit by a critical attack, but Joe Hart insisted on not falling down, but continued to press forward against the ball, and even fell to the ground again to block Shinji Okazaki's supplementary shot, which was ahead of Otamendi.

Seeing that the ball was cleared out of the sideline by Kolarov, he fell down clutching his crotch.

Joe Hart won the respect of nearly 3 Manchester City fans at the scene for his continuous and wonderful blocking, and there was warm applause at the Etihad Stadium.

In the live broadcast room of LeTV Sports, seeing Leicester City's sudden attack, the three of Zhan Jun also exclaimed constantly.

"Manchester City's defense line today must have been affected by conceding the ball too early, and the defense line seems a bit absent-minded!" Zhang Lu laughed.

"It's Demichelis again. Vardy slipped away from him, but he just didn't react, and he looked a little slower!" Zhan Jun was also speechless.

In the sideline coaching area, Pellegrini was also extremely dissatisfied with the performance of the team's defense this time.

Especially Demichelis, this is not the first time.

He seemed a little absent-minded when he conceded the ball at the beginning of the game, and Chu Zheng easily squeezed past him.

But no way.

Manchester City defender Kompany's injury has not fully healed.

If Demichelis is not used, then Pellegrini can only use U21 players.

At this moment, Pellegrini regrets his greed a bit.

If he hadn't been hesitant to give up the FA Cup and League Cup matches in time, perhaps the team would not have suffered large-scale injuries under the drag of the fourth-line battle.

He also won't be stretched in terms of employment in this game.
