Chapter 275: Soldiers coming to stop them
"Okay, welcome back to the game. With Aguero pushing the ball, the second half has begun!"

The scene cuts back to Etihad, where Manchester City fans are supporting their players with unprecedented momentum. They keep shouting, and even into December, there are still shirtless fans waving the Blue Moon flag vigorously.

"At the beginning of the game, Manchester City quickly launched an attack on the opponent's half. They were one goal behind and were trying to equalize."

Silva controlled the ball and constantly disrupted Manchester United's midfield defense, and then waited for an opportunity to pass the ball to Yaya Toure who made a wonderful pass. This is Manchester City's usual style of play, but it suddenly didn't work at this moment.

"Silva passed the ball back to Yaya Toure, who was trapped! Qin Hu actually returned to this position, and he and Carrick forced Yaya Toure into a remote area."

It has to be said that Yaya Toure is Yaya Toure. The midfielder has sufficient experience to deal with anything on the court. Even though Qin Hu brought him strong physical pressure, he finally retained possession of the ball.

"Zabaletta quickly ran up from the backcourt to meet the challenge, the ball was smoothly passed to him, and Manchester City had to control the ball in their own half."

The attack at the beginning of the game was thought to be clean and neat, but no one expected that Manchester United would set up such a defensive strategy. Under such circumstances, Manchester City failed to threaten the opponent's goal in the first ten minutes of the second half.

Mancini on the sidelines couldn't sit still when he saw this scene. The team's midfield was the lifeblood of the game. After realizing that the opponent had seen through his arrangement, he immediately waved his hand and made adjustments.

"Oh~, Yaya Toure's position has been promoted. He swapped positions with Barry."

Soon, when Manchester City's possession of the ball was widened again, people noticed a change. Yaya Toure, who was in an advanced position, began to focus more on the attack, and it was impossible for Qin Hu, who was recovering, to chase him to this position.

"It was a clever substitution. Mancini no longer had to have it all and instead concentrated the team's main strength on attack."

Such changes soon brought new opportunities to the Blue Moon, which were brought about by Yaya Toure, who is known as the most comprehensive B2B midfielder in the Premier League.

"The game reached the 60th minute, Manchester City launched another attack. Silva chose to pass the ball under the interference of Cleverley, and Yaya Toure stopped and passed! He dribbled past Carrick and moved forward!!!"

At this moment, the problem of Manchester United's parallel midfield appeared. Valencia's diagonal pursuit was unable to catch up with the rapidly moving Yaya Toure, and the task of defending him had to fall on Manchester United's left-back Rafael.

"Continuing to push forward, Rafael came diagonally from the left and directly engaged in physical confrontation, but Yaya Toure was not afraid of it at all!"

Despite the opponent's full-back, Yaya Toure continued to move forward steadily, forcing Ferdinand to move closer to him to prevent him from suddenly bursting out and shooting from a distance.

At this point, Yaya Toure had achieved his goal of disrupting Manchester United's defense. He did not hesitate and made a long diagonal pass directly in front of the two defenders in the next second.

"Pass the ball directly from the right to the left! Nasri, his early run left Evra behind!!!"

"Oh!"

Facing the falling ball, Nasri, who had a good sense of the ball, jumped high and kicked it back in the air. It is easy to imagine who the ball will end up with this time.

"Aguero got the ball! Evans just pounced on Nasri and left Aguero a one-meter space. This was a huge mistake!"

For top strikers, the success rate of unmarked shots is extremely high, even if there is a top goalkeeper standing in front of the goal.

After all, no matter what, the goal is so big that in a one-on-one situation, the goalkeeper is naturally at a disadvantage.

"Without dribbling forward, Aguero just shot the ball with the outside of his foot."

Smart Aguero didn't even choose to dribble the ball directly. After seeing De Gea's pace, he turned it into a shot with the outside of his foot the moment he touched the ball.

The ball made an almost perfect arc and flew into the upper right corner of the goal.

"It's in! It's in! Aguero scored with the outside of his foot ~ a wonderful shot! In the 64th minute of the game, Manchester City equalized the score!"

"Boom!!! Manchester City! Manchester City! We have our hero KUN! Oh oh oh~" Aguero's song rang out again at the Etihad Stadium, and the Argentine striker also scored twice in this game.

"Shit!"

Although De Gea looked very annoyed when he landed, he was also impressed by his opponent's lightning-fast operation. In his opinion, most forwards would choose to kick the ball.

"Get ready to tee off!"

Without paying any attention to Aguero who ran to the corner area with his teammates to celebrate wildly after scoring the goal, De Gea kicked the ball to the front court. The other Manchester United players returned to their positions almost as quickly as he reacted.

Only four midfielders, including Carrick and Cleverley, were called to the sidelines and Ferguson whispered something in their ears.

When the Manchester City players returned to the field, Manchester United's substitution card was lit on the sidelines.

"Scholes came on as a substitute, replacing Ashley Young. It looks like Ferguson is going to make some changes in his own midfield."

When water comes, we block it with earth; when enemies come, we fight them with soldiers. Mancini's change of formation was a brilliant move. Ferguson did not waste time and quickly adjusted Manchester United's formation to 4132.

When the game resumed, Manchester United's style of play suddenly became the same as Manchester City's before they were forced by Qin Hu to move the core midfielder forward.

The difference is that Manchester City does not have a Qin Hu who is the bravest and most powerful player once he participates in pressing.

"Neither Balotelli nor Aguero are good at high-pressure pressing. Scholes, who came on as a substitute, became the real core of Manchester United's midfield. He forced Yaya Toure to focus most of his energy on defending him."

In this way, a pair was obviously formed, and Manchester City's offensive method was blocked again in a short period of time.

Then, five minutes later, Manchester United's attack, which had been dormant, started again.

"Scholes pulled the ball and turned to pass it. He didn't give Yaya Toure a chance to intercept the ball with his long legs. The ball was passed to Carrick on the right."

"Shu~"

Carrick made a diagonal pass and the ball was passed between Silva and Nasri. Qin Hu pulled back and quickly got the ball. He was in the heart of the opponent's midfield and instantly attracted the attention of all Manchester City's defensive players.

"Qin Hu is advancing with the ball. The entire Manchester City defense is moving towards him. How will he deal with it? A lob pass! A lob pass!"

The ball passed by Qin Hu was unexpected. When the ball flew over the heads of Zabaleta and Kompany, there were no generals in Manchester City's penalty area.

"Oh!"

"Van Persie! He has already entered the opponent's penalty area and headed the ball into the goal!!!"

Robin Hood, who had disappeared for a long time, appeared. He once again performed his classic move of diving and heading the falling ball. The defender next to him could only watch helplessly.

"Shh!"

Joe Hart failed to save Van Persie's header at such a close distance. When he turned his head in despair to look at the ball that hit the net behind him, Van Persie, who had landed, excitedly rushed towards Qin Hu who assisted him.
