The European media are also exclaiming, who can stop this Manchester City?!

"Here's the answer!" Catalan outlet Le Monde Sport said on its front page, expressing their strong confidence in taking out Manchester City.

This is because the draw for the quarter-finals that followed came out and Manchester City will face Barcelona in the quarter-finals!

This immediately aroused great interest in the media and fans, and everyone will not forget that in the semi-finals of the Champions League last season, Barcelona eliminated Manchester City in a less than honorable way, but unexpectedly, the following season, the two teams met again, and the time of the meeting was also advanced, last time in the semi-finals, this time in the quarter-finals.

In interviews, the Barcelona players also expressed their strong confidence in beating Manchester City.

This caused a great deal of outrage among the people of Manchester City.

They have said that they want to give Barcelona a good time in the first leg away at Camp Nou/br> media and fans are also looking forward to this game, but, fuck it, before this game, Yang Fan was determined to miss the first leg of this game because of the recurrence of old injuries, which undoubtedly poured cold water on fans and media.

Twenty-four hours later, the whole of Europe was shocked that Manchester City had actually retreated from Camp Nou!

'Roberto Mancini's side were like shrunken turtles in this game! they had only one shot on goal in 90 minutes!' – the Catalan mouthpiece taunted City after the game.

That's right, as they mocked, Manchester City played a very low level in this game, not mentioning revenge at all, with the aim of not conceding a goal, surviving this hurdle and laying the foundation for the second leg back at home.

Barcelona played so aggrieved, after the game, Messi, who has rarely spoken to the media, couldn't help it, he criticized Manchester City's conservatism, and said that he would kill the Manchester City team in the second leg.

Well, that made the whole of Manchester, the whole of the British Peninsula angry.

International media have also commented that Messi, who has always been mild-mannered, said such things precisely because the opponent this time is Manchester City and Yang Fan's team.

When Yang Fan was still at Manchester United, he led Manchester United to knock out Messi and Barcelona in the Champions League final.

Last season, Messi led Barcelona to eliminate Yang Fan and Manchester City in the semifinals, which was a revenge, but because of the second leg at Camp Nou, the referee's law enforcement was obviously biased in favor of the home team, which also made Messi's win against Yang Fan this time not so reasonable.

The media has also been **** to say this, saying that Messi is not a good victory.

Messi, who has always been good-tempered, can't stand this anymore, so this time, Messi is holding his breath to kill Manchester City and Yang Fan!

Therefore, Messi also released cruel words.

The story of Yang Fan VS Messi continues.

In the second leg of the game, the media is generally still more Serona, first of all, Barcelona did not concede a goal at home, which means that in the second leg away, as long as there is a draw with a goal, Barcelona can advance, and there is that Barcelona as the defending champion, they are now in full swing, they play all over Europe invincible, and the overall strength is stronger than Manchester City.

Hardly any city can knock Barcelona out of the league to advance.

This left Manchester City fans angry and helpless.

***********

Three days later.

When Barcelona's midfield brain, Xavi, sent a ball over the top and Messi retreated to pick up the ball in midfield, he was mercilessly knocked to the ground by De Jong from the side.

He fell to the ground, his expression angry and pained.

This is the second leg of the match between the two sides, and this is not the first time Messi has been brought to the ground, and after today's game, Barcelona's technical stars felt the full malice of the Manchester City people.

Barcelona seem to be uncomfortable with Manchester City's style of physical power flow.

As long as they have the ball, they will be chased and intercepted by Manchester City's players.

It seems that there is no corner for them to avoid in a huge stadium.

It's all fine at the back, but once Barcelona's attack moves into midfield, they start to suffer from City's defensive pressure.

By the time they reached the 30-metre zone of Manchester City, Barcelona were almost unable to move an inch.

The offense was not good, and the defense went awry.

In the 17th minute, City cut off Pedro's ball and launched a quick counter-attack.

Their offense wasn't as layered as everyone thought, with short passes penetrating.

Instead, just take the high ball and open your feet!

Dzeko takes the ball down with a header in front. gave Yang Fan who was inserted in the back.

Yang Fan gave full play to the advantages of impact and speed, and ran wildly with the ball.

That posture makes people feel that even if Yang Fan passed several people in the end, passed goalkeeper Valdés, and then scored, it would not be surprising.

Barcelona's back line rushed back to the defence.

Puyol and Pique pressed towards Yang Fan.

Then Yang Fan passed the ball.

The ball was passed to the back post of the goal, and David Silva, who was plugged in at high speed, slid straight at goal!

He shoveled the ball into the goal solidly!

“!”

"!!!! 1-0! David Silva! David Silva! a beautiful counter-attack! Man City's counter-attack was really sharp!"

"David Silva made a beautiful tackle! Man City scored Barcelona in just three passes......! They must have thought it was unbelievable! Defending champions Barcelona conceded first!!"

'From the very beginning of the game, Manchester City took the initiative and their tactics completely stifled Barcelona's play, who were pressed by them. There is no way to play. Ten minutes is enough for Manchester City to take the initiative. ”

"Mancini's tactics today are quite good, containing Barcelona!" the Italian commentator shouted happily, in the past few seasons of Manchester City, Mancini and Manchester City have grown together, as if they already have the posture of a famous coach.

David Silva got up to celebrate the goal and ran towards Yang Fan, who had passed the ball to him. Dzeko, who was originally running to the door to grab a point, also changed his route and ran to two people.

The City fans erupted in deafening cheers.

When the media didn't know how to beat Barcelona before the game, these Manchester City fans couldn't help it even if they weren't convinced.

But now, they're finally raising their eyebrows!

Didn't you say we couldn't win against Barcelona?

Who's leading now?!

It's us Manchester City!!

Extreme Manchester City fans even shouted slogans insulting to Barcelona. They vented their grievances to the fullest.

Considering that they were unjustly knocked out of the tournament by Barcelona last season, the resentment in the hearts of Manchester City is understandable.

Pep Guardiola's Manchester City players frowned.

For seventeen minutes before that goal, Barcelona, who had the better game, did not get anything to match their quality.

In the game, although they pressed Manchester City, everyone came, and it was more Manchester City than Barcelona who threatened to attack.

What does this mean?!

It shows that Barcelona is completely limited by Manchester City!

Barcelona's current possession advantage is more like a trap, and Manchester City, which seems passive, has laid a lot of killing opportunities.

At this time, the entire Etihad Stadium was already a sea of cheers for Manchester City.

"Hooray!Yang Fan!Hurrah!Silva!!"

"We are the champions!!!

Mancini raised his fists and swung them into the sky.

Behind him, the people in the Manchester City dugout and on the bench rushed out, waving their fists and cheering. The goal that broke the deadlock was significant for Manchester City, and it could even be said that the balance of victory had begun to tip in their favor.

It's celebration on Manchester City's side, and it's cloudy on Barcelona's side.

In the end, the score was still 1-0 at the end of the first half, and Manchester City led Barcelona by one goal thanks to David Silva's goal, a one-goal lead, making the second half full of uncertainties.

At half-time, Roberto Mancini told his players to try to score early in the second half, a one-goal lead was too dangerous, and once Barcelona scored, the latter could progress on away goals.

Mancini's demand for an early goal in the second half was the same for Manchester City, and Barcelona's side did the same, with Pep Guardiola again asking his players at half-time to put pressure on City's goal at the start of the second half.

In the second half, the game between the two sides gradually improved, and the highlights gradually increased.

Pep Guardiola didn't sit in his seat since the start of the second half, he stood on the sidelines, chanting and shouting, he was very happy about the victory. Barcelona are eager to defend their Champions League title and will have to get past Manchester City if they want to defend their title. Obviously, this opponent is even tougher than last season.

However, Pep Guardiola shares the same sentiment as Roberto Mancini, for whom the Champions League title is his greatest desire.

As a result, both managers looked a little impatient at the start of the second half, shouting from the sidelines to remind their teams to stay in shape and focus on attacking.
