The game has been more than 20 minutes into the game, most of the time the football is in the midfield area, the two sides in the midfield is a man on the back, can hit the penalty area of the opportunity to play very little, can really form a threatening shot opportunity a total of only two, Chelsea and Manchester City each once, Chelsea's shot is Anelka's header in the penalty area, Manchester City's time is Yang Fan to Tevez to make the ball, the latter's long shot outside the box.

It can be seen from this that Yang Fan faced a lot of difficulties in today's game, and Chelsea's goal was to limit his chances of shooting in the box as much as possible.

Chelsea have learned the lessons of last season's painful 4-2 defeat at home to Manchester City by stepping up their defence against Yang Fan.

At the same time, the back line shrank very far back and contracted very quickly, with only one purpose: not to give Yang Fan space to sprint.

There is only one purpose for this, and that is to make Manchester City only play positional warfare with them, which is not Manchester City's strong point, and what they are best at is to counter-attack quickly.

In such a situation, Yang Fan does not have a good chance for a while, as long as he appears near the penalty area, he is always followed by a player, and once he has the ball, then, there are at least two defenders around him, one to prevent him from breaking through, and one to prevent him from sharing the ball. It can be said that when Chelsea defended Yang Fan, they completely sacrificed the team's offense and defended comprehensively, which can increase the level and number of defenders and avoid defensive gaps.

Yang Fan can only choose a position to retreat slightly, he appears in the position of the midfielder, and even retreats to near the center circle at one point, but he will still be surrounded by Chelsea players, anyway, no matter where he goes, there will always be Chelsea players around him. It's just a different guy to defend him, he's close to the box, it's the defenders who are there to mark him, he's in the midfield, it's the Chelsea midfielders who defend him.

Yang Fan broke through with the ball, and it was difficult for him to even catch the ball comfortably.

As soon as other Manchester City players pass the football to Yang Fan, Yang Fan will immediately be posted with a Chelsea player.

Twenty-five minutes into the game, Manchester City still only had one shot on goal, that is, the long-range shot that Yang Fan made the ball to Tevez and the latter.

"Chelsea's defense was relatively successful, and Yang Fan encountered a tight defense after the game started......

"Chelsea are very jealous of Yang Fan...... Last season's 4-2 defeat at Stamford Bridge to Manchester City clearly impressed Carlo Ancelotti and the Chelsea players, who clearly did not want that to happen again. ”

"Carlo Ancelotti is a coach from Italy, and he did a good job in tackling the defensive side......"

In today's game, the core of Manchester City's organization is Yaya Toure.

But Yaya Toure doesn't have a good way to face Chelsea's iron wall, his ability is not bad, but, after all, he has just joined the team, he has no tacit understanding with the whole team, and in addition, after playing in Barcelona for two seasons and then coming to the Premier League, he has to regain the rhythm of the Premier League.

What about the other Manchester City players on the field in addition to Yaya Toure, Gareth Barry has both offense and defense, can also control the rhythm, his long pass is very good, David Silva is a playmaker, but also an estimator, a versatile player, can provide more attacking ideas for the team, but he, like Yaya Toure, has just joined the team, and needs to adapt to the team's tactics and adapt to the rhythm of the Premier League.

Yaya Toure looked at Chelsea's dense defence, there was really no way, and he was not willing to risk passing the football directly into the penalty area, so the possibility of conceding a goal would be too great.

So he passed the ball back to Frenkie de Jong, who passed it to Kolarov, and the former Lazio star took the ball and pushed it forward, and the ball passed to Gareth Barry.

※※※※※※※

Gareth Barry received the ball and he was in a position far back and there were no Chelsea players coming up to press him, so he could take possession with more poise and watch the situation.

Yang Fan raised his hand in the front court to ask for the ball.

Gareth Barry didn't hesitate and passed the ball straight over

It's a highball.

Yang Fan jumped high in the front court, he flicked the ball with his head, and the football rolled to the left behind him, and then he ran forward without looking back.

Frank Lampard hurried to follow, he didn't care who would receive this football, Manchester City's most dangerous thing is Yang Fan, whether it is in the state of the ball or without the ball, this person must be kept an eye on.

Yang Fan's header ferried, Tevez received the ball, he was not tall, in the face of Ferreira's defense, he did not choose to stop the ball, but raised his right foot, put the football in the air, the football flew up again, and flew behind him.

Yang Fan also happened to rush over, and he rushed towards the football that was still in the air.

"I'll go up! Terry shouted at Ivanovic and pounced, intending to take advantage of Yang Fan's stop to steal the ball.

But where did he think that Yang Fan didn't stop the ball, but directly picked up his right foot, faced the football that fell in front of him, and directly came to volley a long shot

"Yang Fan - Shoot!"

Before the commentator could finish speaking, the football was already flying in front of the goal, and all the Chelsea fans watched with wide eyes and some horror.

At this moment, in front of the goal, just as the football was about to fly into the net, a large hand appeared in front of the football, and the football hit the big hand hard, then bounced upwards and flew off the crossbar......

The ball was saved.

※※※※※※※

Corner kick!

Chelsea fans let out a sigh of relief.

"Hilario, Hilario, he made a world-class save!"

'With Petr Cech injured and unavailable, some people say Hilario is Chelsea's biggest shortcoming, but look at his save! ”

Chelsea captain John Terry looked at Yang Fan with some shock, his back was now cold, this was scared, it really scared him, he didn't expect Yang Fan to stop the ball, but directly volleyed the football towards the goal.

This kind of shot is extremely difficult, and players generally don't choose it that way.

Then Terry thought, can Yang Fan be measured by the thinking of an ordinary player? It is said that the artist is bold, this person is so capable, there is really nothing he does not dare to try.

Terry walked back into the box to defend the corner, and he went up to hug goalkeeper Hilario, who might have flown straight into the net if it hadn't been for Hilario's outstanding performance. If Yang Fan scored a goal and found the feeling of scoring, this game would be difficult.

At this moment, Chelsea goalkeeper Hilario is also shocked, and his first feeling is that Yang Fan is really strong...... He made a completely subconscious save just now, and to be honest, even Hilario himself didn't expect his reaction to be so quick at that moment to be able to save the football.

This is what the media and fans often call over-the-top play.

※※※※※※※

Yang Fan's long-range shot just now was very sudden, he ran to the football landing point, did not stop the ball, did not wait for the football to fall, but faced the football that was still in the air, and directly chose to volley vigorously. It was a big surprise to the Chelsea players, and if it wasn't for Hilario's world-class save, Chelsea would have fallen behind by now......

"This is Yang Fan's first shot after the start of today's game, a chance that is not a chance, but he almost scored, this is Yang Fan's strength, this is the strength of a superstar, you can't give them even a little chance, otherwise, it will be dangerous...... Hilario saved the ball and City were awarded a corner. ”

At the sound of the commentator, Gareth Barry ran to take a corner.

Manchester City chose to try a tactical corner this time, Barry passed the football to Silva, who pulled the ball and turned around and made a move to pass the football into the penalty area, but suddenly knocked and the football reached Yang Fan's feet.

Yang Fan came out of the penalty area to answer.

Seeing Yang Fan get the ball, Chelsea central defender Branislavic hurriedly threw down Kolarov and ran up to intercept Yang Fan.

Yang Fan pedaled a bicycle and pushed the football to the bottom line. However, Ivanovich was not fooled, he just pasted it and did not let him cut inside.

"Yang Fan pedaled a bicycle, Ivanovic is experienced, and he didn't eat this set...... What? It's beautiful! It's beautiful!" Lineker was laughing at Yang Fan's bicycle, he was stunned, his eyes widened, he suddenly stood up and looked at the stadium, and finally couldn't help but let out an exclamation.

The other commentators in the commentary booth were also stunned, and the reporters in the media gallery were also stunned.

This qiē is all because of Yang Fan's dreamy performance just now.

Yang Fan's bicycle did not shake Ivanovic, who stuck to the trend, intending to destroy Yang Fan's foot with a tough defense, but this gave Yang Fan a chance!

I saw Yang Fan on the side of his body, carrying Ivanovic, and then he suddenly knocked the football between the legs of the Serbian international with his heel. Immediately after him, with Ivanovic as the axis, he turned one hundred and eighty degrees, bypassed Ivanovic, and swept into the penalty area!

Ivanovic didn't expect that under his tough defense, Yang Fan could make such a move, he subconsciously stretched out his foot to hook the ball, but his movement was half a beat slower, he was not able to shovel the football, but just hooked Yang Fan's ankle......

Ivanovic's heart was cold!

The next thing you can think about with your knees is what to expect......

Yang Fan screamed and fell to the ground.

Chelsea captain John Terry rushed up like a lion and kicked the ball into the stands, but then he heard the referee's whistle.

Everyone looked to the referee...... The referee's finger pointed to the penalty spot, and then he was still pulling something into his pocket, and he was going to pull out the cards!

Ivanovic was teased by Yang Fan, he couldn't keep up with Yang Fan's rhythm and tripped Yang Fan from behind, this penalty is undisputed. And that's certainly not all! Referee Wesley is pulling out cards! He's pulling cards!" Mortensen shouted, "Red card! Red card! Wesley showed a red card directly to Ivanovic! Red card plus penalty!"

"Chelsea were sent off and a penalty was awarded! Yang Fan suddenly exploded in the space of two or three minutes, and then, we saw what happened! For a star of his calibre, it is impossible to defend him throughout the game, it is impossible. Chelsea defended well enough today that he allowed Yang Fan to do nothing for nearly thirty minutes, but a burst of Chinese stars changed that!"

The commentator shouted that in the thirty-first minute of the game, Yang Fan's beautiful breakthrough caused Ivanovic's foul, penalty kick and red card, and the game had a heavy incident, which made them excited. R1148
