Chapter 426 Success is also Manchester City, defeat is also Manchester City

Manchester City vs. Chelsea, the double-blue duel between the new and old local tyrants in the Premier League. For today's Premier League, it is the focus of the battle second only to the Manchester derby.

The Premier League, which is good at promoting, will certainly not let Asian fans miss this game.

The game starts at [-]:[-] noon in the UK, which happens to be [-]:[-] pm in China, which is very suitable for the watching time of domestic fans.

As the game time approached, on Penguin Sports' Premier League live channel, Zhan Jun and Director Zhang's familiar opening words got the fans into the mood quickly.

Relying on high-quality broadcast and commentary, Penguin Sports is now the largest platform for watching the Premier League in China.

This is the main event between Manchester City and Chelsea. Before the game even started, the number of spectators broke the online record for this season.

"In the previous Community Shield, Manchester City was reversed and lost by Chelsea. This time the two teams met in the league. Director Zhang, do you have anything to say about this game?" Zhan Jun looked at Zhang Lu.

Director Zhang hehe said: "I think Manchester City has a better chance of winning. If Hazard's explosion in the previous Community Shield Cup did not happen, Chelsea may not win."

"At that time, the cooperation between Manchester City's new aid and teammates was not tacit enough, but now after [-] league rounds, whether it is Ibrahimovic or Thiago Silva, their performance in Manchester City is getting better and better."

"Even Rodwell and Nastasic's performance is remarkable."

"Manchester City didn't start this season well, but now they have won eight consecutive victories in the league and returned to the top of the standings, which is enough to prove that this team is growing rapidly."

"On the contrary, Chelsea, who were unbeaten in the first eight games of the league, lost all energy after being defeated by Manchester United at home in the ninth round, and went without a win for four consecutive rounds."

"If you count the domestic cups and the Champions League, Chelsea have lost six of their eight games after losing to Manchester United."

"In the current Premier League standings, Manchester City ranks first with 31 points, followed by Manchester United with 27 points. Chelsea, which was the top three rounds ago, only has 24 points at this time."

"Manchester City lost this game, and it will not change their position in the standings for the time being, but once Chelsea loses, they will be overtaken by West Bromwich Albion, which has already won this round, and fall out of the top three in the standings. "

Zhan Jun took over the topic at this time, "I think the most anxious person in this game is Chelsea coach Di Matteo. After all, because of the poor results in recent games, Di Matteo's coaching position is already a bit shaky."

"It was said before that Manchester City lost to Chelsea in the Community Shield and helped Di Matteo survive at Chelsea. If Manchester City wins this game and Di Matteo dismisses get out of class, it will be a success or a defeat for Manchester City. .” Director Zhang also slipped a sentence.

Just as the two of you talked to each other, soon, the game time came.

10 minutes before the start of the game, the starting players of Manchester City and Chelsea walked out of the player channel holding a small ball boy.

At this time, the field broadcast began to introduce the starting players of both sides.

Because it is the Stamford Bridge Stadium, when the names of Chelsea players were read out, there was naturally a burst of cheers.

And when the name of Manchester City's player appeared, boos immediately broke out in the stands, especially when the name of Yang Mo, the devil of Manchester City, appeared, the boos could be described as a mountain roar and a tsunami.

From the side, this can also reflect the importance that Chelsea fans attach to Yang Mo.

Now in the Premier League, the name of Yang Mo is enough to make any team's defense tremble, and make fans feel awe from the bottom of their hearts.

After the pre-match ceremony, the referee blew the whistle for the start of the game as the formation of the two sides was completed.

In the first half, Chelsea went first.

Chelsea, who are more eager to win, tried to use the ground pass to tear apart Manchester City's defense from the very beginning.

This season, after sending away many veterans through trades, Di Matteo completely started Chelsea's technical transformation.

After the technicalization of Chelsea, it was indeed unstoppable in the first eight rounds of the league, but after being defeated by Manchester United, the consequences of losing the veteran were immediately apparent.

First, they were tied by Swansea and Liverpool, and they were defeated by West Bromwich Albion in the last round.

They lost six out of eight games on all fronts. When No. 20 faced Juventus in the UEFA Champions League group stage, they even lost 3-0. Whether the group can qualify has become a problem.

It seems that after losing to Manchester United, Chelsea was like a tire that had been deflated.

The continuous invincibility has made this Chelsea almost forget what it feels like to win.

So after the start of this game, although Chelsea's offense looked fierce, it always felt a little less.

Manchester City last season was the team with the strongest defense in the Premier League. Now that Thiago Silva's running-in is completed, Manchester City's defensive strength is obviously better.

After several waves of invisible attacks from Chelsea, Manchester City was helpless.

During this period, Chelsea had several good opportunities to score, but they were all wasted by Torres in front of the goal.

The former Atletico Madrid golden boy, the state of Chelsea this season can only be described as muddled.

After [-] league games, Torres, as Chelsea striker, scored only three goals on the field.

Since the end of the seventh round of the league, Torres has not scored in 9 games so far.

Different from Chelsea's eagerness to win, Manchester City, who faced Chelsea's full-scale attack at the beginning, played extremely calmly.

When defending Chelsea's offense, Yang Mo and Aguero would even return to the penalty area to help the team defend.

When necessary, even Ibrahimovic withdrew to Manchester City's half to help Manchester City counterattack at a high position.

Relying on this kind of defense, Manchester City slowly wiped out the morale that Chelsea had finally built up after the opening.

And when Chelsea's morale began to decline, Manchester City made a decisive move.

In the No.209 minute of the first half, Hazard received the ball in the frontcourt and wanted to rely on his personal ability to impact Manchester City's defense.

Eden Hazard saw Torres reaching for the ball as he made his way from the right to the front of the box.

At this moment, Hazard saw that Torres's position was not good, and when he thought of Torres wasting opportunities one after another, he hesitated for a moment.
But it was Hazard's hesitation that gave Manchester City a chance.

Thiago Silva accelerated suddenly, taking advantage of Hazard's hesitation, and successfully intercepted the ball directly.

After stealing the ball, Thiago Silva would not hesitate like Hazard. He kicked a long pass and sent the ball directly to Yang Mo in the midfield.

Start, speed up, facing the double-teaming of the surrounding Chelsea players, Yang Mo just relied on the start before catching the ball to get rid of it directly.

When Yang Mo unloaded the football in the air in front of him, there was no player standing in front of him in the entire Chelsea half.

When Yang Mo started sprinting with the ball, the Chelsea players behind him could not catch up with him at all.

After crossing the backcourt and rushing into the penalty area, what was waiting for him was Cech who had been waiting for a long time.

Take a penalty kick with your right foot, and your body rotates 360 degrees counterclockwise, and the ball under your feet rotates with your body.

A magnificent Marseille maneuver.

As if by magic, Yang Mo put Cech behind him and made him face the empty door.

Finally, with an easy push of the arch of the right foot, the goal was successfully scored!

"The ball went in...!!"

"Three and 10 minutes into the first half, Yang Mo's single-handed goal helped Manchester City open the scoring!"

"In this Premier League blockbuster, Yang Mo once again showed his desperate speed. From midfield to goal, no Chelsea player can catch up with his counterattack!"

"Facing Petr Cech at the end, the Marseille roundabout, without fireworks, as light as an antelope's horns, is completely a master style!"

Accompanied by Zhan Jun's excited voice, many fans of Yang Mo jumped up excitedly in front of the monitor.

Yang Mo's lightning speed and the extremely gorgeous horse racing round in front of the door are enough to make their blood boil.

Seeing Yang Mo celebrating with his teammates on the sidelines, Director Zhang in the live broadcast room said:

"Chelsea couldn't attack for a long time, but Yang Mo made such a beautiful counterattack. I'm afraid it will hurt morale."

As if to prove the words of Director Zhang, as Manchester City celebrated the end of the goal, the situation on the field suddenly changed 180 degrees.

Before Yang Mo scored, Chelsea had been playing around Manchester City.

But after Yang Mo's goal, Chelsea was gradually overwhelmed by Manchester City, who started to exert their strength. After undergoing technical transformation, Chelsea was defeated by Manchester City in the midfield fight.

The possession of the ball on the court began to be completely controlled by Manchester City.

The rhythm of the game has also begun to develop in the direction Chelsea likes.

As the game began to be a bit one-sided, anyone with a discerning eye could see that Chelsea might be hanging in the game.

Chelsea coach Di Matteo was anxious, standing on the sidelines and shouting something.

Leaving aside whether the players can hear him in the noisy stadium, the current decline of Chelsea obviously cannot be solved by roaring alone.

Di Matteo couldn't come up with an effective solution, which shows his ability to adapt on the spot.

However, as the referee blew the whistle for the end of the first half, Manchester City failed to continue to expand their advantage in the first half after all.

And Chelsea, whether it was a coach or a player, showed a relaxed expression like a boxer who was forced into a corner by his opponent for a long time in the boxing ring and finally heard the bell ringing at the end of the round.

"They have lost their fighting spirit and just want to finish the game quickly."

On the way back to the locker room, looking at the relieved expressions of the Chelsea players, Yang Mo said lightly.

"Then give them a happy one." Aguero looked excited.

After the short halftime break, not long after the start of the second half, Di Matteo took the lead in making substitution adjustments.

The 91 teenager Romeu, who was produced by the La Masia youth training camp, played to replace Mikel's midfielder.

Di Matteo seems to want to use younger players to limit Yang Mo's speed under the repeated impact of Yang Mo.

But the following facts proved that Di Matteo's substitution was obviously a trick.

Although Romeu is faster than Mikel, his turning speed is too slow, which makes him very embarrassed when defending Yang Mo.

In the 77th minute of the second half, Yang Mo got rid of Romeu on the spot and dribbled the ball inside, and assisted Ibrahimovic to score with a pass.

"Yang Mo assisted Ibrahimovic to expand the score. Chelsea trailed Manchester City 78-[-] at home. The game time has reached [-] minutes, and there is not much time left for Chelsea."

"According to the state of Chelsea on the field at this time, it is too difficult to win this game."

Zhan Jun's words set the conclusion for Chelsea's game.

In the rest of the game, although Manchester City failed to further expand the score, Chelsea also failed to score.

Finally, when the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, the game was declared 0-2.

In the much-anticipated Premier League No.13 round, in the double-blue showdown between the new and old Premier League powerhouses, the new local tycoon Manchester City finally had the last laugh.

Increased the points to 34 points, and Manchester City continued to sit firmly at the top of the Premier League standings.

In this game, Yang Mo, who completed one shot and one pass, successfully won the best of the game.

Compared with Manchester City's victory, Chelsea, which lost the game at home, was helplessly overtaken by Lavitch in the West and fell out of the top three in the standings.

The most terrible thing is that if Chelsea loses again, I am afraid that they will be overtaken by Everton behind them, and they will not even be able to keep the Champions League theater.

However, as the head coach of Chelsea, Di Matteo could not see this day.

Oh, by the way, it should be called the former head coach.

On the second day after Chelsea lost to Manchester City at home, Chelsea's official website issued an announcement announcing the termination of the contract with Di Matteo.

Just like Director Zhang said before this league game, Di Matteo kept his position because of the victory over Manchester City in the Community Shield.

And losing this position was because of losing to Manchester City, a clever reincarnation, which is really ironic.

After Di Matteo stepped down, it was Benitez, the former Liverpool coach, who quickly took over as Chelsea coach.

When it comes to Liverpool, one has to mention the current Liverpool coach Rodgers, who also relies on the solid position of Manchester City, has also had a very bad life recently.

I don't know if his resignation will also be because of Manchester City.

If that's the case, then the name of Mancini who saves the dying and heals the wounded may have to be changed to Jai Zi must be retaliated.

However, Mancini has no intention to pay attention to these mysterious discussions, because his own seat is not secure.

Although Manchester City is doing well now, everyone in the club does not know that Mansour is particularly disliked by Mancini and has always wanted to replace Mancini.

If it weren't for the support of Manchester City's double crown last season, coupled with Manchester City's fairly stable results now, Mancini would have dismissed get out of class long ago.

However, in Mansour's view, most of Manchester City's victories depended on Yang Mo, and it had little to do with Mancini.

Mansour wants to find a coach for Manchester City who can match the strength of Manchester City.

Judging from the gossip in the club, many big-name head coaches are flirting with Manchester City.For example, Guardiola has just resigned from Barcelona, ​​​​for example, Mourinho, who was very unhappy in Real Madrid, and so on.

These gossips have caused Mancini to be like an enemy. In order not to lose his position, Mancini has been working desperately recently.

Originally, the Premier League schedule was busy enough, but Mancini, in addition to participating in the team's daily training, had to analyze opponents and study tactics after training, which was even harder than the players.

After the game with Chelsea, the players got a day off, but Mancini continued to work in the team for a day and a night in order to qualify for the final match with Real Madrid.

On November 11, when Yang Mo returned to the team for training, seeing Mancini's obviously unhealthy face, he couldn't help but persuade him.

"Mr. Coach, although the game is important, what is more important is your body."

"I understand that." Mancini smiled wryly.
