After the goal, Yang Fan was so excited that he ran headlong into Milner, who was about to come over and hug him, and continued to run until he was surrounded by his teammates, threw himself to the ground, and crushed him under him. His teammates immediately flocked to him, and they all pressed up......

"Oh hell, crush me!" the City captain, who was crushed at the bottom, let out a wail.

Finally, he got up from the ravages of his teammates, looking very embarrassed, and then he ruffled his hair and shook his fist vigorously into the stands.

He responded to the Aston Villa fans with such a tough gesture.

Naturally, this caused a frantic response from Aston Villa fans, and the scene booed the sky. Referee Sturaro had to come over to warn Yang Fan not to provoke the fans.

"Manchester City 1-0 Aston Villa, we said before, this game, Manchester City fans are not allowed to come to the stadium to watch, Manchester City players will face tens of thousands of fans in this devil's stadium, they have to be distracted by the second leg of the Champions League semi-finals in two days, they have to be cautious in this game, now, Yang Fan has helped Manchester City get off to a good start!"

"Haha, let's see, Gary Cook smiled, he must be very proud now, according to the English media, it was because of Gary Cook's personal lobbying that Yang Fan made up his mind to join Manchester City two years ago. Now, seeing Yang Fan score, Gary Cook must be the happiest. ”

Gary Cook was indeed delighted.

When Yang Fan shot, Gary Cook stood up all of a sudden, and saw the ball fly past Friedel's arm and into the ball, and the Manchester City CEO had already raised his arms and cheered the goal. Didn't take care of the Aston Villa chairman around him in the slightest.

The stands erupted in shrill boos from the Aston Villa balls, almost drowning out the sky.

At this point, Aston Villa fans are no longer booing whenever a Manchester City player gets the ball, they are focusing their fire on someone – the hateful Manchester City captain.

Yang Fan's unbridled celebration after the goal, and the subsequent fist-waving that was suspected of provoking the fans, drove the Aston Villa fans crazy.

Yang Fan has caused a lot of trouble for Aston Villa's backline. The backline of Aston Villa's three-back formation is now very embarrassed by Yang Fan.

In addition, don't forget that there is Tevez in the Manchester City team, and it is really difficult for Aston Villa players to completely defend Yang Fan and Tevez.

"Tevez dribbled at high speed, he shot from distance! Friedel – he saved the ball with all his might!"

"Yaya Toure's pass – a scalpel pass, Yang Fan, he hit the goal with a header! The goal - Friedel didn't react, but the post helped Aston Villa!

Friedel was covered with cold sweat on his back, he was already desperate just now, he didn't expect the goalpost to help Aston Villa, worthy of the goalpost of the home team, he hugged the goalpost and kissed it fiercely.

Yang Fan scratched his hair in annoyance, he thought he had the ball just now, Yaya Toure's pass was very good, the landing point was excellent, Yang Fan's grasp of the landing point was also very good, when the ball fell and jumped, Aston Villa's defenders were completely half a beat slower than him, and Yang Fan was able to easily jump up and head the goal. But I didn't expect the ball to hit the post.

Manchester City's offensive momentum is in full swing.

Tevez looked relaxed in the face of Clark, who came up to intercept the opponent, and he easily used his skills to dribble past Clark and look up for someone. Not far ahead, Yang Fan and Milner, who assisted him, were beckoning to him at the same time, signaling him to pass the ball to him.

Tevez hesitated, but chose to pass to the real goalscorer Yang Fan, not to Milner on the wing.

Yang Fan received the ball and turned around in one go. Dunn beside him was in a hurry, and even pulled and dragged it, but still let Yang Fan wipe it in.

"It's in the restricted area!" shouted the commentator.

Mancini in the coach's seat stood up, if Yang Fan can score another goal, then Manchester City can declare the game won.

A figure stabbed obliquely, without saying a word, directly with a fierce sliding shovel, and then people heard Yang Fan screaming and fell in the forbidden area.

Hearing this scream, Mancini's heart and heart jumped, and Manchester City's forward line could not withstand any toss now.

Gary Cook on the rostrum also stood up at once, shouting angrily, "Damn it!"

Yang Fan rolled on the ground several times in a row, holding his right ankle and moaning.

Originally, in this game, although the emotions of the fans were excited, the players on the field were still relatively polite, but Collins's ferocious foul action broke this balance.

De Jong was the first to rush up, and he jammed the neck of the perpetrator, Collins, "Bastard, you did it on purpose, didn't you?"

Yang Fan's first goal just now made Collins who defended him extremely embarrassed, so De Jong had every reason to suspect that this was a retaliatory foul from Collins' anger.

Seeing De Jong do it, Aston Villa's players are gone, this is their home stadium, their turf.

Players from both sides swarmed and the scene quickly descended into chaos.

Referee Sturalo's whistle blew quickly, and he showed Collins a red card and pointed to the sidelines.

Red card!

Immediately after, pointed to the penalty spot, penalty!

Red card plus penalty, an undisputed verdict!

Sturaro then showed a yellow card to the emotional Frenkie de Jong.

Yang Fan, who was shoveled down, lay on the sidelines. He is being treated by the team doctor.

Collins looked at the red card that the referee held high at him, his eyes confused. His head was a mess now, and even when De Jong was stuck in the neck just now, he didn't react.

To say that he maliciously fouled at people, this is not right, but just now, seeing Yang Fan get rid of Dunn and enter the penalty area, Collins' brain was hot, and there was only one thought in his mind, that is, he couldn't let Yang Fan score again, and he also made a tackle at his feet!

At this point, Collins, who had already come out of his hot head, finally realized what had happened, and he was not only sent off with a red card, but also gave the opponent a penalty, leaving Aston Villa at a disadvantage in terms of numbers and scores.

However, there is still something to be comforted, Collins looked at Yang Fan, who was being treated by the team doctor on the sidelines, and thought to himself, if this kid left the field with an injury, then he would be sent off and earned.

Aston Villa manager Houllier, who saw this scene off the field, pursed his lips, and added a red card to the penalty, if the penalty was scored, Aston Villa would be two goals behind, and there was one less person on the field, and the game was not halfway through, which was already equivalent to losing.

"Red card, penalty, spectator, chaotic scene...... Collins's foul is uncontroversial, and the penalty is uncontroversial! Dunn can't keep up with Yang Fan's rhythm at all, he was played by the other party, and Collins can only fill the position, but he chose the worst way to stop Yang Fan's attack!" Yang Fan is being treated by the team doctor, I hope this Yang Fan is not a big problem, otherwise, Manchester City coach Mancini will definitely hate Aston Villa, you must know that three days later is the Champions League semi-final match with Barcelona, without Yang Fan, Manchester City's promotion prospects are not optimistic. Hopefully he's not hurt. ”

Looking at the referee's grim face, Collins didn't even have the strength to defend himself, he bowed his head and turned and walked off the field.

Mancini has no time to rejoice in the penalty he won, and he is now worried about Yang Fan's injury.

On Manchester City's side, when the team doctor told Mancini that there was nothing wrong with Yang Fan's ankle, he breathed a sigh of relief. Yang Fan is so important to Manchester City.

Now that the team doctor said that Yang Fan is okay and can continue to play, and the opponent Aston Villa is not only one less, but also awarded a penalty, the situation is very favorable for the Manchester City team.

Mancini breathed a sigh of relief. If this penalty had been taken, the game would have been basically won.

After being treated by the team doctor, Yang Fan returned to the court.

Tens of thousands of Aston Villa in the stadium collectively booed him to welcome him back.

Manchester City won the penalty, and the first penalty taker in the team was Yang Fan, but Yang Fan was seen whispering to Tevez, and then Tevez picked up the football.

Yang Fan conceded the penalty to Tevez, and it seemed that Tevez took the penalty. ”

Tevez put the ball on the penalty spot and stepped back to shoot.

Aston Villa's goalkeeper Friedel was a little nervous, and he kept stretching his arms in front of goal, retracting and reaching out again to disrupt and confuse the opposing penalty takers.

There is still a hint of luck in the hearts of the Aston Villa people - the penalty is not a 100% goal rate, and Tevez did not perform well today, it seems that he is not in good shape, maybe he will miss the penalty.

However, Tevez quickly countered all doubts with a goal.

After the referee's whistle blew, Tevez ran and volleyed into the far corner!

Friedel misjudged the direction at all, and the ball went in!

"The goal is in!2:0! Manchester City are two goals ahead of Aston Villa!"

'Carlos Tevez converted the penalty created by Yang Fan and now City have extended their lead, and let's not forget that they still have the advantage in numbers, with Aston Villa having fewer fierce players. ”

It would be a mistake to say that Aston Villa were completely defenseless, as they came close to scoring just 33 minutes into the game.

Albrighton cut off the ball from Gareth Barry in midfield and fired a long ball straight into the back of the net, and Heskey got in front of Lescott to head home.

Manchester City goalkeeper Joe Hart made a subconscious pounce, and the ball was bounced to the other side.

The door is empty!

Villa Park Stadium erupted in cheers.

However, Darren Bent, who made the rebound, rounded his calf, volleyed, and the ball smashed the post, bounced back to the top of the penalty area, and fell to the feet of Ashley Young, who aimed at the empty goal and kicked it wide again.

Aston Villa had two chances to hit the empty net and failed to get the ball in the back of the net and they missed the closest they came to scoring of the game!

Even the commentator is shaking his head, Aston Villa has not been able to seize such an opportunity, what can you expect from this team?!

In this way, at the end of the first half, Manchester City led Aston Villa 2-0 away, and the home team aiming for revenge not only fell behind by two goals, but also was sent off, and the situation was extremely unoptimistic.

Yang Fan opened the scoring with the first goal of the game, followed by a penalty that Tevez converted.

The Manchester City captain was as good as ever and was the best player in the first half!
