Chapter 1950
The warm-ups of the two sides ended one after another, and the players of the two teams returned to the dressing room one after another. Arsenal, which was a little later than Manchester City, naturally suffered a wave of welcome with only boos and no cheers.

When the Gunners returned to the locker room, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Manchester City seemed determined to give them a hard time at home in this game, and everyone's preparation mentality was affected.

At this moment, the professor had no time to deal with the mood of the players. He quickly repeated the formation and tactics of the team.

In this game, Arsenal set up a 442 formation. Facing the Manchester City team, which Pellegrini has played so well this season, he did not dare to form a 433 formation at the opponent's home court.

Giroud and Liu Feng partnered as a double striker, Neymar and James Rodriguez served as full-backs on the left and right, and Wilshere and Ganso partnered in the midfield combination.

This kind of striker arrangement can be described as an elite net, all of which are the main players in the best condition of the Arsenal team.

On the back line, the arrangement of double A, one left and one right and the combination of Mertesacker and Vermaelen's starting central defender means that the Gunners' strongest defensive lineup has been taken out again.

The goalkeeper is naturally still Szczesny.

Wenger's main tactic in this game is to attack with the ball. Manchester City under Manuel Pellegrini will be very threatening if they do not attack.

"Be sure to pay attention to the opponent's attack in the middle. They will use through balls and passes to directly hit the back ball. Don't forget how you deal with such situations in training."

"Understand the coach!"

"Very good, very energetic, I hope you can maintain this momentum in the game."

"No problem boss!"

Without further ink marks, when the knock on the locker room door sounded, the entire Arsenal team strode out of the locker room under the leadership of Liu Feng, and they met the Manchester City team in the player tunnel aggressively.

The two sides ignored each other. After the referee gave the order to enter the field, the players of the two teams stepped into the field side by side.

"Okay, the two teams have entered the stadium, and the game is about to start."

The voices of Liu Jianhong and Zhan Jun sounded at the right time, and countless fans who followed the game were already looking forward to it.

Liu Feng and Kompany, captains of both sides, came to the referee together. After exchanging club tokens, they started guessing fists, and then the kick-off right for this game was determined.

Kompany, who won the boxing game, chose the right to kick off. He placed the ball between the team's two forwards Dzeko and Aguero and walked towards his backcourt.

"The players on both sides are all standing up, and the game will be kicked off by Manchester City."

"Shhhhhh!!!"

A whistle sounded, and the much-anticipated game began. Dzeko launched the ball, and Aguero turned around and passed it to Fernandinho in the team's center.

"Manchester City began to control the ball in their own midfield. In this game, Manchester City formed a 442 formation. Their striker combination is the Zhekun combination that is now in the limelight in the Premier League."

Zhan Jun introduced Manchester City's starting lineup at the beginning of the game. In addition to the double striker, there are four players in the midfield arrangement: Nasri, Yaya Toure, Fernandinho and Navas.

On the back four, Pellegrini dispatched Korolav, Zabaleta, Kompany, and Demichelis, and the goalkeeper is Pantilimon, who is currently one of Blue Moon's temporary ones due to Hart's injury and retirement.

On the pitch, after the start, Manchester City's possession of the ball was very stable. The combination of Fernandinho and Yaya Toure's two top midfielders was not afraid of the Gunners' young combination.

Arsenal were unable to touch the ball after their two forwards rushed into the opponent's pitch for a period of time, so they soon settled down and stopped worrying.

The duel between the two sides started on the court. In the 15 minutes after the opening, the two sides fought fiercely around the ball, but in the end they did not compete.

However, the two teams also began to have a more passionate offense was born.

In the 16th minute of the game, after a fierce press, the ball under Arsenal's foot control for a period of time was cut off by Manchester City. Yaya Toure's long legs made all the Gunners midfielders suffer.

Subsequently, as Yaya Toure broke the ball to Fernandinho in the middle, Fernandinho quickly took the ball to Nasri on the left. The old Gunner has been steadily playing well in Manchester City.

"Nasri moved forward all the way from the left, his movements were fast, Ronaldo and him met head-on, hey, he was directly kicked past! This defense is not good..."

Just when people thought that Manchester City's offense would be over, such a defensive error can be said to be fatal.

"After breaking through smoothly, he made a diagonal long pass. The ball was kicked out, and the precise long pass found Aguero. Aguero unloaded the ball from his chest and turned around smoothly to speed up!"

"Shu~"

A series of actions were as fast as lightning. Aguero had already pulled Wilshere away when he got the ball. After he quickly accelerated, there was only the Gunners midfielder who was chasing after him.

"Breakthrough with the ball to the left. Vermaelen met Aguero head-on. Facing his former teammates, both sides are quite familiar with him. With a single move and a change of direction, he stabbed the ball out with one kick!"

"Shu~"

"Oh!"

A stagger, the ball was directly poked out, the next moment, a pair of ruthless iron legs slammed the ball out, Dzeko's shot was so hard and tricky that Mertesacker didn't even have time to block it.

"Szczesny leapt forward, his movement has been stretched to the limit, but this did not touch the ball, the ball scored!"

"boom!"

Over the Etihad Stadium, the cheers of the Blue Moon fans resounded through the sky. The players of the Manchester City team moved surprisingly fast. They cheered after scoring a goal, and a group of players shouted and rushed to the corner flag area.

Dzeko, who scored a goal, hugged Aguero who assisted him, and the two roared excitedly at their fans.

"1-0, Manchester City took the lead at home. They seized the problem of the Gunners' defense and succeeded with one blow."

When a master fights, life and death are on the line. When there is a problem in a link, it may be the moment when life and death are separated.

J Luo was quite depressed when he saw that there was a problem due to his own mistakes. He didn't recover slowly until Liu Feng ran to him and hugged him and said that there was nothing wrong.

"The goal was scored in less than 10 minutes of the game, and Manchester City took the lead in this game."

People's attention gathered again after the players on both sides returned to the kick-off position. Breaking the deadlock so quickly means that the development of this game will become more intense.
