"As" newspaper used "Crazy! Yang Fan leads Manchester City to the Cotai Strip" to express their excitement.

"Milan Sport" gave priority to reporting the incident from Mancini's point of view, "Mancini: Former Inter Milan coach proves himself at Manchester City".

"Marca" simply and clearly put "dreams come true" in the headline of Manchester City's promotion to the Champions League semifinals, and almost the entire homepage content was dedicated to Yang Fan, and directly expressed the hope that Real Madrid would introduce Yang Fan's suggestion.

The report to Manchester City, "The Golden Dollar Storm in Football History", occupied the front page, saying that Manchester City's arrival in the Champions League semi-finals was the role of Golden Yuan Football, saying that it was a victory for capital.

The New York Times, for their part, gave Yang Fan the sports headline, focusing on the Manchester City captain, saying, "Emma Roberts' boyfriend led this team to a brilliant victory." ”

The Daily Mirror reports that "the great Manchester City who have made history —— are still moving forward and the defending champions are unable to stop them".

The Guardian carried the words "Yang Fan, the king of Manchester City" on the front page, saying that although Yang Fan has only played for Manchester City for two seasons, there is no doubt that he is already the greatest player in the history of Manchester City.

The Telegraph said on the front page that "Manchester City made history and reached the last four of the Champions League" and gave the entire sports edition to Yang Fan.

The "Daily Mail" posted on the front page: "The most valuable star in football history, well deserved!

"Metro News" bluntly typed "Great Forward!!"

The Daily Star reported: "Manchester City and Yang Fan did it! Mancini and Yang Fan made club history!"

Manchester City knocked out Inter Milan to reach the last four of the Champions League, and the media was raving about them, but the tired Manchester City players had to enjoy the joy of reaching the last four before they had to face a tough game.

In the 33rd round of the English Premier League, Manchester City hosted Tottenham Hotspur.

Tottenham Hotspur are currently fifth in the table, they are only five points away from fourth-placed Chelsea, with six rounds of league games remaining, Tottenham Hotspur still have hope of finishing in the top four of the league, so this game, even against Manchester City, Tottenham Hotspur will fight hard, for a tired Manchester City, this game will not be easy.

Before the game, the "Sun" reporter ridiculed Balotelli, saying that Balotelli is currently the worst striker in the Manchester City team, which naturally made Balotelli very unhappy.

The two sides had a verbal battle, and Balotelli was provoked by reporters and shouted that he wanted to score in the game against Tottenham Hotspur, which was immediately hyped by the media, which also became a major attraction of the game.

Match day.

During the warm-up, Yang Fan found Balotelli to chat.

In this game, Manchester City's forward combination is him and Balotelli. In fact, starting Balotelli is also Mancini's support for his descendant, Balotelli.

"Mario, don't be nervous when you're playing. Yang Fan said, "Don't take that incident too seriously, and ignore those reporters." ”

Yang Fan also persuaded Balotelli that if it were him, he would definitely be furious, gritting his teeth to give those who dare to provoke in the game.

"Yes, I see. Balotelli smiled and nodded.

Yang Fan also laughed, he had a pretty good impression of Balotelli, this is a relatively simple guy, maybe a little out of tune, but his heart is not bad, he is also very brainy in football, and he belongs to the kind of player with a good ball quotient.

"We saw Yang Fan smiling and chatting with Balotelli, who seemed relaxed and unaffected by his relationship with The Sun. This is a good sign. He Wei said happily, "I hope Balotelli can have a good performance today." Previously, some media reported the situation in the Manchester City team, Balotelli admired Yang Fan, the Italian shooter can be said to be Yang Fan's absolute little brother, which also makes Chinese fans like Balotelli very much, this time Balotelli and the media battle, Chinese fans are on the side of the Italian shooter.

After the Manchester City team warmed up, they returned to the locker room one after another, and the camera camera could not follow into the locker room.

Tottenham Hotspur (442): 23-Cudicini/25-Rose, 13-Gallas, 20-Dawson, 22-Joel Luka/30-Sandro, 11-Van der Vaart, 14-Modric, 7-Lennon/11-Gareth Bale, 15-Andy Crouch;

Manchester City (442): 25-Joe Hart/5-Zabaleta, 19-Lescott, 4-Kompany, 13-Kolarov/11-Adam Johnson, 7-Milner, 42-Yaya Toure, 21-Silva/5-Balotelli, 10-Yang Fan;

The camera focused on the stands at Manchester City Stadium, and the camera entered the camera of a fan pointing to the jersey number and name of the Manchester City jersey in his hand and shouting loudly, it was Yang Fan's No. 10 jersey.

In the words of an English journalist, in Manchester, in the hearts of Manchester City fans, Yang Fan has a tendency to be mythologized, and fans love this young star.

At this time, the players were ready to enter the stadium, and the announcer at the Manchester Municipal Stadium began to cheer loudly for the players' names, the first to be cheered by the players was the team's captain Yang Fan, and then, every Manchester City player accepted the cheers of the home fans.

'Well, that's how Man City started today. He Wei looked at the information in his hand and took a sip of water, "Manchester City's game, their biggest enemy is fatigue, just played the game with Inter Milan, the whole Manchester City team is tired, in addition, Tevez is injured, which also affects the Manchester City team's forward, of course, this also means that this is Balotelli's opportunity." ”

When He Wei said this, the camera gave a close-up in the stands, in the VIP box, Tevez stayed with his family.

The players on both sides have spread out in their respective formations.

Yang Fan was whispering something to his partner Balotelli. The camera gives him a close-up again, obviously, to tell everyone that the most terrifying nuclear weapon of the Manchester City team is this Chinese star.

Referee Webber inspected the nets on both sides and exchanged a few words with the assistant referee, Webber began refereeing in 1989, and since 2003 he has been refereeing in the Premier League, and so far, Webber has refereed more than 400 Premier League matches and football matches. Webber has refereed many of the biggest finals and reached the pinnacle of his career in 2010 when he became the first man in history to blow the 2009-10 Champions League final and the 2010 World Cup final in South Africa.

It is currently reported that the England Golden Whistler is considering retirement, and as for his future work, Webber may be responsible for the post-match evaluation of match decisions in the position of technical director, and he will also be responsible for the training of referees at all levels in England.

Webber looked at the watch on his wrist, and then, the England golden whistle blew the whistle for the start of the game, and the focus of the 33rd round of the 2010/2011 Premier League season, Manchester City vs Tottenham Hotspur, began.

Tottenham Hotspur kicked off first, Crouch knocked the ball back to Modric, Modric knocked the ball directly to the side, their right midfielder Sandro got the ball, and suddenly passed an overhead ball, Tottenham Hotspur striker Gareth Bell ferried the ball to his partner Crouch, who **** stopped the ball and split the ball to the side, and the inserted Tottenham Hotspur left-back Joel Luka took a few steps along the side, and suddenly an inside cut, under the close pressure of Manchester City right-back Zabaleta, Joel Luka fell to the ground.

'Tottenham Hotspur got a free-kick from the start, and it was a free-kick in a good position. The Manchester City players are still protesting to referee Webb that they don't think Zabaleta has fouled the free-kick and that the free-kick doesn't exist. Referee Webber showed a yellow card to the emotional Zabaleta. ”

"It's no wonder the Manchester City players are so emotional, we've said before that Manchester City need to be careful of Tottenham Hotspur's free-kicks, Crouch's high altitude advantage in the box is terrible! It really shouldn't. ”

Yang Fan didn't go back to help the team's wall, he stayed in front, this is the time to play to the advantage of his speed, if Tottenham Hotspur's free kick is blocked by the human wall, and is obtained by his own side, a direct long pass, this is a good counterattack opportunity.

Yang Fan looked at his team's human wall, he turned his head and ran towards the front, not far from the opponent's last defender Gallas, but not too close, this is to avoid too irritating Gallas so as not to cause vigilance against the other party, but this distance is completely enough for Yang Fan to sprint.

Mancini on the sidelines nodded, this is what he specifically asked before the game, to take advantage of every possible opportunity to use the speed of Yang Fan and Balotelli to counterattack. He turned his head to look at his peers not far away, and Tottenham Hotspur manager Redknapp didn't seem to notice the subtle change on the pitch. He was sitting in the coach's seat and looking at the field with a serious expression.

According to media reports, Tottenham Hotspur coach Redknapp Sr. negotiated with Chairman Levy to renew his contract. After the showdown, the negotiations between the two sides are not going well at the moment. The elder Redknapp has two years left on his current contract with Tottenham, and he thinks his record in charge of Tottenham could earn him a contract extension, but Levy disagrees, and his view is that if Tottenham can qualify for next season's Champions League at the end of the season, then it is all well to say, and if Tottenham Hotspur cannot finish in the top four of the league, then you as a manager can not escape the blame, so don't expect a salary increase.

And considering that the season has reached the sprint stage, every game is now crucial for Tottenham Hotspur, this game against Manchester City, Tottenham also came with desperate determination, at least in the heart of their manager Redknapp, this game is a battle of life and death, and must do their best to win.

"Just 51 seconds into the game, Tottenham Hotspur won a free-kick in front of the court and Modric stood at the penalty spot...... Manchester City goalkeeper Joe Hart had to be careful, running and Modric passing...... In the restricted area...... Crouch!!Joe Hart, oops, the ball is off, it's a low-level mistake, someone makes a shot! The ball goes in! It's in! 1:0! Tottenham Hotspur is ahead! Joe Hart, he should have done better! This time the save was a mistake that shouldn't have been made....... Manchester City conceded the goal as soon as they started. ”

There was a huge cheer from the stands at Manchester Municipal Stadium as soon as the whistle blew at the start of the game, and at this moment, before the cheers fell, Tottenham Hotspur scored. There was silence in the stands.

No one thought of this conceded goal. I didn't expect the goal to come so quickly.

The fans didn't expect it, the Manchester City manager Mancini didn't expect it, and the Manchester City players on the pitch didn't expect to concede the goal so quickly.

Yang Fan ran forward when referee Webb blew the whistle and Modric helped him run and kick the ball, ready to get a chance to counterattack once the opponent's football was blocked, but he had just run a distance when he heard cheers behind him, which were the cheers of Tottenham Hotspur players.

What the hell!

You don't have to look back, Yang Fan knows what happened, Tottenham Hotspur has scored!

After a few seconds of silence, a shrill boo rang out over Manchester Municipal Stadium, and in the Manchester City game, an opening quick goal was born, only to the embarrassment and displeasure of the home fans, it was the visitors who scored...... Tottenham!

Bale was so excited after the goal that he rushed to the stands of the visiting fans and waved his arms wildly at the Tottenham fans.

Crouch's header led to Joe Hart's save and Bale's clever follow-up shot into the net.

Mancini angrily punched the seat of the coach's box, and he had every reason to be angry! Modric's pass is really good, but the problem is not here, if the subsequent Crouch's header is of high quality, and the ball goes straight in, Mancini has nothing to say, but the problem is that Crouch is very positive, there is no angle, Joe Hart can handle it better, he is completely able to hold the football, the problem is that Joe Hart's hand shape is wrong, he makes the hand shape to hit the ball out, not to hold the football firmly.

In addition, when Bale was making a stop-shot, there was no one around him to defend closely, which also illustrates the problem of the Manchester City team's backline being not tightly marked.

"O, let's take another look at the goal. Sky TV gold commentator Motenson shook his head and said, "Joe Hart's hand was completely wrong, he hit the ball straight to Bale, who of course laughed at the gift." It was a catastrophic blunder. Manchester City conceded a goal from the start, Joe Hart's performance was really terrible, and as an England international, it was not a reassuring performance, and Capello must not be happy to see this game. ”

Yang Fan felt a little depressed.

He is not blaming goalkeeper Joe Hart's poor performance, never blame or blame his teammates on the pitch on the pitch, because no one wants to make mistakes, everyone makes mistakes sometimes, there is a problem, everyone works together, carry it together!

The reason for his frustration is that he conceded the ball so quickly, which is too passive.

The commentator continues to criticize the mistake of 'Butter Hand' Joe Hart, and the game is already going on.

Seeing that the team took the lead at the beginning of the game, Redknapp immediately adjusted, although it cannot be said that Tottenham Hotspur is fully defensive, but they are now not in a hurry to attack and score, focusing on the midfield and the defense of the area within 35 meters in front of the goal.

In a word, Tottenham Hotspur are not in a hurry now, they are leading now anyway. It's the Manchester City team that is in a hurry, and they are waiting to play a counterattack and catch the 'hole' of the Manchester City team.

Tottenham Hotspur have to win to keep their quest for a top-four finish alive, and this is not the case for Manchester City, who must win if they are to continue to cling to the top of the table and keep their title hopes alive.

So, if you really count it, Manchester City's desire to win is stronger than that of their opponents, Tottenham Hotspur.

In a word, it's a game that neither side can afford to lose.

"With more than 20 minutes into the game, Manchester City looked helpless against Tottenham Hotspur's solid defence. ”

Yang Fan also fell into the opponent's strict defense, Gallas and Yang Fan are old rivals, the two have fought many times before, Yang Fan firmly has the upper hand, however, this time, Gallas seems to have learned a lesson, he did a good job today, and the game has not given Yang Fan any good opportunities so far. ”

Yang Fan got up from the ground, and he kicked hard at the turf. It's so unpleasant. Just now he received Silva's pass, after **** stopped the ball, facing Joel Luca, who was defending himself, he pulled the ball horizontally, and was about to come to a long shot, kicked out with his right foot, kicked it empty, and he himself immediately fell to the ground. This is Tottenham Hotspur's left midfielder Lennon from the side of a tackle close to the ground, even with the ball to shovel him to the ground, no foul!

Yang Fan got up from the ground, he patted the mud on his buttocks, and subconsciously looked up at the home scoreboard, he was looking at the game time on it. The game has been going on for twenty-five minutes, let alone scoring, and there is not even a good chance to shoot on goal.

***！

Yang Fan scolded hatefully.

In today's game, the whole Manchester City team is tired, Tottenham Hotspur is waiting for work, in addition, the opponent scored at the beginning, which is really a big surprise, Tottenham Hotspur is very smart, and after taking the lead, they started a defensive counterattack, which makes Manchester City very uncomfortable.

In addition, Tottenham Hotspur's defense in the game today is very tenacious, and it can even be said that it is quite unfriendly, their foul actions are relatively large, and today's referee Webb's law enforcement scale seems to be more relaxed, which to a certain extent contributes to Tottenham Hotspur's rough tactics.

In a word, the game has been played so far, Yang Fan feels very uncomfortable and unhappy.

The kick was awkward and died, and he was depressed.
