Chapter 296: Captain Yang Fan is here!
Manchester City and Portsmouth play on 30 August, and on 29 August, there is a big game when Manchester United host Arsenal. Manchester City players, including Yang Fan, watched the showdown in their hotel rooms after returning from the bar.
The match between Manchester United and Arsenal is always the most eye-catching game in the Premier League, and even Manchester City's players will pay attention. It's like the match of the century between Real Madrid and Barcelona is not something that only fans of both teams will watch.
Because Manchester United is Manchester City's sworn enemy, the vast majority of Manchester City players are still on Arsenal's side, and for Yang Fan, he doesn't care about his attitude, as long as the game is exciting and good-looking. Of course, if possible, he would still like to see United win, given that there are a lot of his well-connected former team-mates in the team.
Adebayor is also a supporter of Manchester United, not to say that the Togolese are Manchester United fans, but just because he wants to see Arsenal lose, and when he left Arsenal to transfer to Manchester City, Adebayor and Arsenal completely fell out, which can be said to be a turn against each other.
Arsenal scored first in the first half, Arshavin was fouled off the ball, Arsenal sent a quick free-kick, and after two passes, Denilson passed the ball to Arshavin, who fired a long-range shot past Forster to give Arsenal a 1-0 lead.
After the start of this season, Manchester United has not had a good time, Manchester United has sold Cristiano Ronaldo and Yang Fan, both the team's morale and fan support have been at a low point, this showdown with Arsenal, if you lose again, then Moyes's life will be even more difficult.
Then, just over 50 minutes into the second half, Wayne Rooney equalised from a penalty spot-on.
The game then changed dramatically,
Five minutes later, Ryan Giggs' free-kick from the right was hoisted into the box, and Diaby headed it in front of goal without pressure, and United scored twice in a row to now lead Arsenal 2-1.
Ninety-five minutes into stoppage time, Robin van Persie scored a goal for Arsenal, but the referee blew it off because Gallas was in an offside position, which made Arsene Wenger furious, and he was also shown a red card to the stands by the manager for his emotional protest.
In the end, Manchester United won Arsenal 2-1 at home, which also made Moyes, who was a little anxious surrounded by rumors of dismissal, finally raise his eyebrows once, and temporarily got rid of the class crisis.
On the second day, there was a lively discussion about the match between Manchester United and Arsenal over lunch. Before the game, everyone was optimistic about Arsenal, thinking that Arsenal would defeat Manchester United, which is currently suffering from internal and external troubles, but Manchester United eventually won, in the case of falling behind by one goal, using a foul by Arsenal goalkeeper Almunia to get a penalty, and then Diaby sent an own gift, so to speak, Manchester United's victory was made by Arsenal itself......
"Moyes's good luck!" someone said, and there was a burst of laughter.
However, when you think about it, they beat Arsenal when Manchester United needed it most, which was a timely rain, which greatly relieved the pressure on Moyes, and winning such luck also shows Moyes's good luck.
Tevez snorted, wishing that United kept losing and Moyes was sacked. Tevez has completely fallen out with Manchester United, and he has been haunted by Manchester United's promise to buy him out but then broke his promise. And Moyes did not retain Tevez after taking office, until Tevez transferred to Manchester City, Moyes did not make a phone call to Tevez, so Tevez also hated Moyes.
He wished that United had been losing, and David Moyes would have gotten out of class as soon as possible.
Well, for another Manchester City striker Adebayo, he wishes that Arsenal kept losing, so as to prove that he Adebayo is strong and important, well, without him Adebayo, Arsenal will not work. It feels so good.
Portsmouth's home stadium, Fratton Park, away dressing room.
Mark Hughes's feelings have obviously changed a lot compared to yesterday, the Manchester City manager looks full of confidence, and it is clear that after communicating with Yang Fan and getting Yang Fan's support, Mark Hughes is also confident.
In fact, it is precisely for Mark Hughes, who has always been questioned, that it means a lot to him to be able to have the support of the team's superstars.
After the start of the game, the Manchester City team playing away occupied the initiative on the field, which also made Mark Hughes more assured.
After a succession of passes, City advanced the attack layer by layer, Yang Fan received a pass from De Jong, and instead of tangling with Ben Haim, who was defending him, he passed the ball to Tevez, who dribbled the ball along the flank, as he got close to the baseline. made a feint to break through, shaking off the space for a moment. He crossed without hesitation!
It's not a common aerial ball, but a very fast ball that rolls against the turf!
Almost as soon as Tevez passed, Yang Fan started to run, which attracted the attention of the vast majority of Portsmouth's players, and in the middle of the two, Yang Fan shot at the ball with his foot, but it was a feint, and the ball slipped between his legs.
All of the Portsmouth players were deceived by his shot just now, including their goalkeeper Begovic.
"Shot missed!
People's eyes moved with the rolling football, and then, behind the crowd, in the back corner of the goal, a red figure appeared on the running track of the football......
Manchester City's away kit is red and everyone understands what that means.
Portsmouth goalkeeper Begovic was completely deceived by Yang Fan's feigned shooting action just now, he had already fallen to the ground and made a save. But I didn't wait for football. Instead, the gates of the city behind him were wide open.
Wright Phillips won't waste such an empty chance......
Phillips, who was running, crossed his foot and fired straight away, and the ball flew easily into the goal in front of him.
“gooooooooooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaal!”
"Wright Phillips! He scored the ball with ease! City's attack finally paid off!"
"Beautiful attack! Tevez passes, Yang Fan leaks, Phillips scores! Portsmouth's defensive strength is attracted to Yang Fan, which makes Phillips shoot, there is no one to defend! 1-0! Manchester City takes the lead away. ”
Mark Hughes burst out of the dugout at the sight of the goal, raising his arms and cheering, and the goal got City off to a good start.
After the goal, Phillips also happily ran to Yang Fan and thanked Yang Fan, Yang Fan's leak was really wonderful, which provided great cover for his shot, although Yang Fan was not very happy to 'snatch' the captain's armband, but, at this moment, Phillips had long forgotten about those unhappiness.
"Taken by Yang Fan's terrifying strength, Portsmouth had to focus on Yang Fan's defense, which gave other Manchester City players a chance, of course, I still have to praise Yang Fan's leak just now, it's really beautiful. Eddie Gray, the narrator, exclaimed.
Portsmouth's head coach Grant waved his arm frustratedly. Portsmouth's defense was completely penetrated this time, but Grant had nothing to do, he thought about it in his mind, and finally had to admit that this goal was inevitable, because if you don't focus on defending Yang Fan, then it is the Chinese star who scores.
For a player of Yang Fan's strength, it is really a headache for the opponent's coach, you focus on defending him, the defensive strength is limited, which is bound to cause loopholes elsewhere, but if you don't focus on such horrors, it will only be worse.
That's what a superstar can do when he's better than a lot of players.
However, just three minutes later, Grant jumped for excitement as Portsmouth scored.
"Kanu......! The Manchester City midfielder was cut off, Portsmouth played a quick counter-attack, Kanu scored with a header, it was their first shot of the game, and it was a goal!!"
The commentator shouted frantically, and the Portsmouth fans at the scene shouted even more frantically, because Portsmouth's goal was so surprising that such a surprise would be even more crazy.
After Manchester City's goal, it was still Manchester City who took the initiative on the field, Manchester City was pressing Portsmouth, Portsmouth only had the ability to parry, and had no power to fight back, not even a decent counterattack, let alone a shot.
Just before Portsmouth's goal, Yang Fan almost penetrated the goal guarded by Begovic again with a strong shot, and in a blink of an eye, Portsmouth got a rare opportunity to counterattack, a sneak attack, and scored to equalize the score.
The Portsmouth fans in attendance were even more happy to dance and celebrate.
"Well done!"
"Man City, hold your oil godfather and cry. ”
"Chinese, wait, this is just the beginning. ”
After the start of the game, Manchester City took the full initiative, Yang Fan was even more eye-catching, helping Phillips score, and the situation on the field also made Portsmouth people worry that the team would continue to concede goals, which made the Portsmouth people who had old grudges with Yang Fan very entangled and worried, and now, seeing the team equalized, all the worries and grievances were vented.
Amid the cheers of the Portsmouthers, Manchester City's players did not look very good.
The team kept pressing the opponent, but the opponent used a sneak attack to equalize the score, which was really demoralizing.
The camera gives a close-up of the Manchester City players, whose faces are not good-looking, and even a little dejected.
Seeing this scene, Manchester City fans suddenly felt unsteady in their hearts, and at the same time a little worried, because Manchester City is a famous team in the Premier League that only plays downwind, and when the team plays well, they generally win by chopping melons and vegetables, and often can win by a big score, but once they encounter a setback, they will be overwhelmed and play quite badly.
One of the things is that Manchester City's home record is quite good, and at home, Manchester City are always able to play smoothly, but when it comes to the away side, once they encounter a little trouble, it is difficult for Manchester City to make a difference, and they are often abused by their opponents......
So, at this moment, there is a shadow in the hearts of Manchester City fans, and they think of the Manchester City team that collapsed after a setback.
When the team conceded the goal, Mark Hughes got up from the dugout and walked around the sidelines with some agitation......
His worries are no different from those of others, who are afraid that City will become impatient after conceding a goal. He knows his team best, and he knows the biggest sticking point for Manchester City: not playing against the wind!
Mark Hughes looked up into the arena and he heard something.
Yang Fan was yelling at his teammates, of course, this was not anger, but rather cheering for his teammates.
"Isn't it just a equalizer, what a big deal!" Yang Fan shouted, "Just score their goals again." ”
"This kind of sneak attack trick can't be put on the table, see how we win them. ”
I have to say that Yang Fan is now more and more like a competent captain, and at this time, someone needs to stand up and shout twice to boost morale.
Yang Fan's words boosted the morale of his teammates at a certain time, at least, these people seem to have a backbone in their hearts, have expectations, and are no longer panicked.
Of course, Yang Fan boosts the morale of the team not only by yelling twice, he also has practical actions!
Just when Portsmouth was overjoyed that they had equalised, Yang Fan immediately stepped up and dealt them a heavy blow.
"It's Manchester City's attack, Yang Fan!'s shot is blocked, Tevez's follow-up shot is blocked from the bottom line, corner kick!"
In the 31st minute of the game, Manchester City won a corner.
Ireland drove a corner into the box and Kompany's header caused chaos in the Portsmouth box, and in the scuffle, Wilson tried to sweep the ball out of the box.
Then he saw a leg come over and cut off the football.
"Yang Fan!He broke the ball in the penalty area!Smash the ball!Beautiful!Direct volley"
With the roar of the commentator, the football flew towards the goal like a cannonball, and the Portsmouth goalkeeper Begovic didn't have time to react at all, and by the time he turned his head to look, the ball had already rushed into the goal!
"Oh oh Yang Fan! he scored !!"
"What a domineering blow!"
"Yang Fan!" he made the Fratton Park stadium silent!"
The narrators were all excited and yelling.
"The people of Portsmouth were only happy for six minutes! Yang Fan gave them a slap in the face!!"
"Beautiful! Beautiful! Beautiful, Yang Fan!! what a beautiful blow!" shouted the Manchester City commentator, "The Portsmouth people were still happy that they equalized, and in the blink of an eye, Yang Fan used a goal to shut them up! At the most critical moment, our captain stepped up, and he quickly stabilized the morale of the army with a goal! At this critical moment, he stepped forward! He is the hero of Manchester City!"
"Well done, captain!" the Manchester City commentator continued to shout.
Gold medal commentator Eddie Gray was also full of praise for Yang Fan's goal, "It's really wonderful, this is the value of a superstar, a terrifying shooter! After breaking the ball, he directly smashed the ball to dodge the defender's counter-robbery, and then shot with his feet! The shot was decisive, confident, and the angle was tricky! Portsmouth's goalkeeper Begovic didn't have time to react at all......"
After the goal, Yang Fan rushed to the away stands at Fratton Park Stadium and beat his chest hard, looking domineering, he was using such a move to reassure Manchester City fans.
And the other Manchester City players also gathered around, cheering, celebrating the goal together, if Yang Fan's shouting just now made them temporarily stabilize the morale of the army, then, Yang Fan's subsequent goal made these people angry, and they were all excited. They are no longer worried, and they really feel that there is nothing to worry about, just like Yang Fan just said, they were equalized, what a big deal, just score their goals again.
Manchester City's players celebrated the goal excitedly, they really didn't expect Yang Fan to equalize so quickly, he said to score, and he really did it immediately.
"Guys, that's it, score their goals, we win, they cry!!hahaha!" Yang Fan shouted.
Looking at this young captain, the admiration in the hearts of these people began to surge, Yang Fan used goals and practical actions to tell them, he is not just talking, but has the strength to do it!
This is more convincing than anything else!
It can be said that for the vast majority of Manchester City's players, in the future games, with Yang Fan's excellent performance, with his goals, these people will also have confidence in their young captain, believe in him, and really regard Yang Fan as a fixed sea god, and they will feel at ease when they see this person on the field.
This is how prestige and domineering are gradually erected.
On the sidelines, witnessing this qiē: including Yang Fan's previous shouting, as well as his goal, Manchester City coach Mark Hughes really fell into reflection, and he really felt that Yang Fan was the most suitable decision to be the captain of the team at this time. Yesterday, he just began to admit that Yang Fan was a good choice to be the captain, but now, he has further realized that this is the best choice.
Now, Mark Hughes is not worried, he is really confident about winning the game. From being equalized to quickly exceeding the score, Yang Fan used practical actions to drive the morale of Manchester City, for Manchester City, Mark Hughes is too familiar, as long as the morale rises, this team will be terrible, chopping melons and vegetables to win.
Although the media said that Manchester City would only play with the wind, which was a sarcastic remark, but, seriously, once Manchester City's morale came up and played smoothly, it was really crazy like the wind.
After the game restarted, as Mark Hughes expected, the Manchester City players were in high spirits, and under the leadership of Yang Fan, they roared and launched wave after wave of indiscriminate bombardment of Portsmouth's goal......
Captain Yang Fan is here, kill him with pleasure!――
