We agreed to play football together, and you will be the head coach?

Chapter 297: Winning the FA Cup for the second time, Bonucci was expelled from the national team

The first minute of first half stoppage time.

De Bruyne made a run forward and took the defender away.

Dong Fangzhuo cut inside, shook off Zabaleta and shot from behind, hitting the far post and bouncing out.

Both teams almost changed the score and gained the advantage in the final moments of the first half.

Then came the halftime break.

It is obvious that Manchester City wants to re-defend the right-back and limit Dong Fangzhuo.

He Tianqi placed more emphasis on marking Yaya Toure's forward attacks and restricting Balotelli.

Dzeko's appearance has reduced Villa's defensive difficulty to a certain extent.

Tevez is much harder to defend than him.

Fifteen minutes later, the second half began.

Vera took the initiative.

De Bruyne passed the ball straight into the penalty area on the left.

Although Dong Fangzhuo got rid of Zabaleta, he was disturbed by Barry and his ball stop was too large.

By the time he caught up with the football, his shooting chance was no longer good.

But Dong Fangzhuo was surrounded and had no way to make any other adjustments, so he could only take a forced shot.

The football was easily saved by Hart.

Vardy made a run forward and tried to make a follow-up shot.

However, due to Vieira's interference, the first kick failed to kick the ball.

He was then bumped by Vieira, staggered to the baseline with the ball, turned around and passed the ball sideways.

Kolo Toure kicked the ball away, preventing it from entering the goal.

Manchester City fans applauded.

Manchester City players used continuous high-quality defense to resolve Villa's attack and did not give Villa any chance to steal.

In the 53rd minute, Villa made a comeback.

Dong Fangzhuo broke through Zabaleta again on the left and created a corner kick.

De Bruyne took a corner kick, Fellaini got a little bit and headed the ball.

The football passed quickly through the crowd and no one touched it.

Instead, Motta at the back point used his body to stop the ball, and then he shot towards the goal.

The football flew along the grass to the far corner, and once again no one touched it.

when!
The football hit the far post and bounced into the goal.

"GOAL! Another goalpost! But this time the goalpost worked!"

"Motta made a successful shot, he is versatile in offense and defense! He helped the team take the lead 4-3!"

"This should be considered as self-redemption. Motta's performance on the defensive end today was a disaster, but I didn't expect him to be so impressive on the offensive end!"

"Vera's attack is too fierce. You can defend against it once, but you can't defend against it a second time!"

"Zabaletta's problem is too big, no matter how Barry tries to remedy it, it will be useless."

"Is Mancini really not going to adjust Zabaleta?"

On the sidelines, Mancini had no words to express his grievances.

If Tevez hadn't been injured, he would certainly have adjusted Zabaleta.

But now... substitutions are precious and Mancini has already made arrangements.

Moreover, after the adjustment of Zabaleta, the substitute right-back Richards may not be able to defend Dong Fangzhuo well.

After all, the fact that Zabaleta can become the starter already shows the advantages and disadvantages of the two.

In the 58th minute, Manchester City launched a counterattack in the backcourt.

Yaya Toure's long pass blew the horn directly.

Balotelli received the ball in the frontcourt and dribbled, fighting one against two and successfully cutting inside.

He already had a chance to shoot from the left side of the arc.

But maybe it was because of the youthful fearlessness, maybe it was because young people pursue perfection, or maybe it was because Balotelli was too confident in himself. After passing two Villa players, he actually passed the ball sideways at the top of the arc, trying to pass Motta again and create a completely open space.

Balotelli just made a feint and shook Motta off.

But when Motta lost his position, he turned around and made a blind tackle from behind.

The football was instantly swept away by Motta.

Balotelli also fell in the penalty area.

He held his calf and wailed in pain.

But it didn't work.

The referee indicated that this was a good steal, not a penalty.

Players near Manchester City quickly gathered around, trying to put pressure on the referee.

However, De Bruyne, who was participating in the defense, made a long pass towards the ball with a half-turn!

Counterattack against Manchester City!
"Foul! Foul now!"

Yaya Toure immediately alerted the defender.

Kolarov had strong execution ability and immediately knocked down Vardy who was about to speed up.

The referee then blew the whistle and showed Kolarov a yellow card.

In the 64th minute, Barry's pass was intercepted by Kante.

Yaya Toure and Vieira double-teamed Kante immediately.

Kante's passing and dribbling skills were poor and he failed to get out of the trouble, but he still caused Yaya Toure to foul and won a free kick for the team.

De Bruyne then took a tactical free kick.

Motta fired a shot from thirty meters away from the goal.

The football went slightly over the crossbar.

Mancini was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat.

Mancini then replaced Barry with Milner.

"Barry's stamina is not good enough, Milner replaced him. It is worth mentioning that these two players are from Aston Villa!"

"Barry was Villa's captain and flag-bearer before moving to Manchester City before the start of last season."

"Milner won the FA Cup, League Cup and Championship with Villa last season!"

"Before the start of this season, Milner moved to Manchester City for a whopping 30 million euros, but so far he has not completely won the hearts of the fans."

"It is generally believed that he is still some distance away from 30 million."

"But this deal is not a bad one. It may be that Milner still needs time to adapt."

"If he can perform well against his old club Villa, he will most likely take over from Barry and become a member of Manchester City's starting lineup."

When Milner and Barry took over, some Villa fans at the scene applauded them both.

In the 66th minute, Balotelli successfully broke through Walker again.

Walker was almost hit and suffered internal bleeding.

The key is that Balotelli's dribbling and speed are still very sharp.

In the end, Balotelli's shot resulted in a corner kick.

Corner taken by David Silva.

Bonucci cleared the ball with a header.

Milner almost scored a goal with a long-range kick from outside the penalty area.

The football hit Fellaini's calf and the sideline, slowed down and was saved by Schmeichel.

Another corner kick.

Silva took another corner kick, this time Dzeko and Fellaini competed for the ball at the same time. The ball landed near the small penalty area, and Kolo Toure turned half way and shot to pay tribute to Motta.

Unfortunately, the football flew into the stands.

"What a pity! Kolo Toure is a central defender. If another Toure on the field had made this kick, maybe it would have gone in!"

Luck seems to be a bit off for Manchester City.

In the 69th minute, De Bruyne launched a counterattack with the ball, making consecutive passes and feints to shake off the open player, and finally shot with his left foot in the penalty area.

Unfortunately, the ball went slightly wide.

Long-distance, continuous dribbling with long strides is still very energy-consuming. De Bruyne's last shot was just a little lacking in strength, and he failed to hold the ball down, resulting in an angle deviation.

And this is also a signal.

Players on both sides began to enter a period of physical exhaustion.

He Tianqi made a decisive substitution, with Lewandowski replacing Giroud.

Trippier replaces Walker.

It's all due to physical considerations.

In the 74th minute, Dong Fangzhuo retreated to support his teammates.

Lewandowski moved to the left.

Motta's long pass accurately passed Dong Fangzhuo and found Lewandowski.

Lewandowski cut inside and outran the ball after his first touch.

Then he hooked his right foot backwards and knocked the ball in front of him with his heel, showing the unprepared Kolo Toure.

Kolo Toure saw Lewandowski pressing the ball behind him and was ready to rush up and physically confront Lewandowski. This is also the way to defend Giroud.

As a result, Lewandowski accelerated immediately and passed Kolo Toure cleanly with just one pass.

"Lewandowski is not Giroud! He can also show off when necessary." He Tianqi smiled on the sidelines.

The next moment, facing Lescott, Lewand suddenly slowed down and quickly adjusted his pace.

A sudden low left-foot shot.

Lescott was not as fast as Lewandowski in adjusting, and he stretched out his legs to block the ball, which just happened to go through his crotch.

The ball went straight to the far corner and hit the net from the inside.

"GOAL! Five to three!"

"Lewandowski scored a goal less than five minutes after coming on as a substitute!"

"This is a very wonderful goal. Lewandowski's ball control and dribbling skills are so superb!"

"It is well known that he and Giroud are competing for the position of Villa's starting center forward. But it is incorrect to put him and Giroud in the same category because of this."

"Don't forget, Lewandowski is known as the Little Dong Wang! His skills are just as comprehensive as Dong Fangzhuo's... except for the inside cut part."

In the 75th minute, Mancini made another substitution.

David Silva was replaced by Premier League winger Adam Johansson.

The forward replaces the midfielder, the former has better speed, shooting and offensiveness.

Johnson would be arrested and imprisoned in the future for sexually assaulting a 15-year-old girl, and was eventually sentenced to six years in prison for having sex with an underage girl.

After being released from prison, he spent 12,000 pounds to spend a night with Premier League babe Katie Price, also known as "Broadcast King Jordan", and to welcome her back.

In the 76th minute, Yaya Toure passed the ball to Johnson.

Ashley Young managed to block the devil's wings, but he also paid the price of a yellow card.

In the 78th minute, Milner took a free kick.

Dzeko chested the ball at the front point, then half-turned and shot, hitting the side net.

Villa never gave Manchester City many good attacking opportunities.

In the 83rd minute, there was not much time left for Manchester City.

Johnson made a cross from the bottom.

Dzeko headed the ball but failed to exert enough power.

The ball was saved by Schmeichel.

But Milner rushed into the penalty area and scored with a follow-up shot.

"GOAL! Four to five! Manchester City still has a chance!"

"Milner has indeed made a great contribution!"

"Milner, who is used to long-distance running in Villa, finally got his chance!"

"Will he be the savior of Manchester City?"

"In ten minutes, we will know the answer!"

In fact, it doesn’t take ten minutes.

Four minutes later, in the 87th minute, De Bruyne dribbled the ball near the top of the arc and passed it to the right.

Trippier, who had been hiding in the back of the right side and fighting with Balotelli since he came on the pitch, suddenly left Balotelli behind and got the pass from De Bruyne.

boom!
Trippier made an accurate cross.

Kolo Toure headed the ball away, beating Lewandowski.

The ball fell to the left side of the penalty area.

Dong Fangzhuo took the lead and swung his left foot to pass the ball back into the penalty area.

Vardy took advantage of the momentum of the forward run to jump high.

Kolo Toure had just landed and turned around, but his second jump lacked the bounce and Vardy snatched the chance to score.

Swish!
Joe Hart failed to catch the ball.

"GOAL!!!"

"Six to four!"

"it's over!"

"Manchester City has no chance!"

"Vardy scored with a header and completed a hat trick!"

“Who would have believed that this grassroots player ultimately decided the game!”

"He's just too brilliant!"

"In just two years, Villa has produced a series of stars! Just after last year's most popular player Abangladesh left, this year Vardy has shown a brilliance that is no less than Abangladesh's!"

Rumble!
The scene was in an uproar.

Villa fans stood up one after another.

Everyone knew that the outcome of the game could no longer be changed.

In the second minute of stoppage time, a dramatic scene occurred.

After Bonucci cleared the ball, he was slapped down by Balotelli next to him.

The whole audience was stunned.

Everything that just happened was replayed on the big screen.

Bonucci collided with Balotelli after clearing the ball. Both sides were in defensive postures, so it was actually nothing.

But Balotelli may have felt that he was about to lose the game, and was unhappy, so he pushed Bonucci and said angrily: "Are you trying to destroy me by hitting me like this?"

Bonucci and Balotelli are teammates on the national team. Bonucci was so focused on the game that he ignored Balotelli and casually replied while staring at the football: "This is a game. Who the hell cares about you?"

As a result, Balotelli instantly turned red and said: "I don't want to play with you anymore. I declare that you are expelled from the Italian national team!"

After saying that, he reached out and pushed Bonucci again.

Just as Bonucci was about to move forward, he was slapped in the face by Balotelli and fell to the ground.

"Fake!"

Villa players immediately surrounded them.

Balotelli was outnumbered and the situation was quite embarrassing.

In the end, the referee intervened in time and showed Balotelli a red card.

Mancini was almost going crazy on the sidelines.

Are you an undercover agent sent by He Tianqi?
During such precious extra time, you had a conflict with the opponent?

Also received a red card.

Then what are we doing?

In the end, Manchester City, playing with one man less, was unable to catch up.

The game ended with a score of six to four.

Aston Villa successfully defended their title and won the FA Cup for two consecutive years.

……

Sky Sports: "Villa saves the country in a roundabout way. After winning the FA Cup, they can still play in the Europa League next season!"

The Times: "He Tianqi's terrifying dominance in cup competitions! After winning the EFL Cup, he led Villa to win the FA Cup again!"

"Gazzetta dello Sport": "Balotelli's red card at the last moment was unnecessary. Inzaghi said he is considering whether to continue to recruit him in the future!"

Turin Sports Daily: "Considering that Bonucci is the successor to the Italian national team's backline leader, Balotelli is likely to be collectively boycotted by his national team teammates!"

The London Times: "Villa has a new Owen! Vardy's FA Cup hat-trick dominates the game, and his value soars to 35 million euros!"

"France Football": "Goal battle, self-redemption, hat trick, red card, penalty, injury... Villa VS Manchester City may be the best game of the year!"

"Marca": "After the treble, the double! Villa is not under pressure from the Premier League and may be able to impact the Champions League zone next season!"

Daily Sports: "He Tianqi may make a comeback in the Champions League next season! This year and next year are Barcelona's best chance to win the Champions League, we should go all out!"
