Penalty and red card.

The Manchester City players on the field were excited, and they rushed up to hug Yang Fan. Cheers for the captain's excellent performance just now.

On the sidelines, Carlo Ancelotti covered his face, the last thing he wanted to see, and Yang Fan suddenly erupted, and Chelsea's defence collapsed.

Sent off Branislav Ivanovic left the pitch in frustration and Carlo Ancelotti came up to pat the Serbian defender as a sign of comfort.

Yang Fan stood at the penalty spot, and he personally took the penalty.

Referee Wesley's whistle sounded, Yang Fan ran and volleyed vigorously!

The ball goes straight into the top left corner of the goal, hits the net in the goal and stops.

Yang Fan celebrated with open arms, while the sky above Wembley Stadium resounded with huge cheers from Manchester City fans.

“Gooooooooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaal！”

Yang Fan's penalty kick was so tricky that even Hilario, who was very brave today, couldn't save such a goal. 1-0, City are ahead!" John Mortenson shouted excitedly.

Lineker, who was next to him, was also full of praise for Yang Fan: "Yang Fan's table is decisive, he not only helped Manchester City to take the lead in the score, but also gave Manchester City the advantage in numbers, Chelsea now have one less person, their game will be difficult." ”

Manchester City players and fans were celebrating the lead, while Chelsea were a little depressed.

For Chelsea, it is not the end of the world to be down by one goal, and it is not impossible for Chelsea to equalize or even overtake the score when the score is down, but it is a worse situation for Chelsea to be sent off.

Branislav Ivanovic is arguably the anchor of Chelsea's defence, with the Serb on the pitch, Chelsea's defence is quite solid, and Ivanovic's header is also a powerful weapon for Chelsea to score from set-pieces.

Now, Ivanovic has been sent off, Chelsea have one less man, and the backline is bound to start to have more holes, and even if Carlo Ancelotti makes substitutions to make up for the vacancy of the central defender, however, there is really no replacement for Ivanovic on the Chelsea bench, and their ability is much worse than that of the Serbs.

※※※※※※※

Manchester City relied on Yang Fan's penalty to take the lead.

This is a perfect situation for Mancini's Manchester City.

Because under Mancini's tutelage, Manchester City is better at playing defensive counter-attacks. With players like Yang Fan and Tevez who are fast and can shoot suddenly, it is a waste not to play defensive counterattacks.

And there is a premise for playing defensive counterattacks, that is, to be ahead in the score. Now they are ahead, and in the next game, Manchester City, who have a one-goal lead, can play a defensive counterattack with peace of mind.

Correspondingly, the next game will be difficult for Chelsea......

Carlo Ancelotti stood on the sidelines, frowning, he also understands the situation of Chelsea at the moment, and what he has to think about now is to make adjustments to replace a centre-back to ensure the integrity of the defence, or wait until half-time to complete the substitution?!

Ancelotti ultimately made the decision to make changes now, with Kalou being replaced and Brazilian centre-back Alex coming off the bench as a tactical signal that Chelsea would need to maintain their defensive stance to ensure they don't concede any more goals. At the end of the first half, it was not unacceptable to be down by just one goal, but it would have been difficult if City had taken the opportunity to score again.

Seeing Carlo Ancelotti make a change to replace attacker Kalou and bring on centre-back Alex to secure the defence, Mancini knew what Ancelotti was up to, which was to defend and make sure he didn't concede any more goals.

Mancini was not too surprised by this, he and Ancelotti are also old rivals, and he knows Ancelotti's coaching philosophy better.

Seeing that Chelsea began to shrink their defense, Manchester City was not in a hurry, since they were ahead, let's go around with Chelsea, anyway, it is not them Manchester City who are falling behind now.

That scoreline remained unchanged until the end of the first half, with City going into the break with a one-goal lead.

Manchester City's players looked good, talking and laughing, and they were quite satisfied with the result and process of the first half.

Chelsea's players didn't look particularly good when they left the pitch, either with their heads down so that they couldn't see their expressions at all, or they just elongated their faces.

That's right, the score of 0-1 and the fact that they didn't continue to concede goals is not bad, but when they think of the second half of the game, Chelsea's players are not optimistic, although some Chelsea players are reluctant to admit it, but now Manchester City is definitely one of the teams that Chelsea is not very willing to meet, without him: Manchester City has Yang Fan!

Now Manchester City's morale is strong, and Chelsea, on the other hand, not only is the score behind, but there is one less person, and the morale is also a little low, which is really difficult to make Chelsea players optimistic.

※※※※※※※

Chelsea are indeed a big team now, and they have undergone half-time adjustments, both in terms of morale and fighting spirit. After all, it is the team that played the final of the European Champions League with Manchester United, and it has also seen a big scene.

After the break, the two sides returned to the pitch.

Both teams did not make any adjustments at the same time and the game continued.

In the second half, Chelsea, who were one goal behind, took advantage of their first kick-off and launched a few fierce attacks but could not find the back of the net, and then quickly recovered their defence and returned to the same form as they had in the first half.

Carlo Ancelotti is very sophisticated and knows that being two goals down is the deadliest thing compared to being one goal down, so even if it is still 0-1 in the end, Chelsea still have a chance as long as they have ten minutes to go, and they only need one goal to equalise and then drag the score into extra-time.

To know that an equaliser in the final moments of the game is a huge thrill for the team that scores the goal, and a heavy blow for the other team that has been leading until then.

Therefore, Carlo Ancelotti even felt that the 0-1 scoreline remained like this until more than 70 minutes into the game, and then Chelsea tried to score, which was the best-case scenario, when Chelsea's morale would be boosted and Manchester City would be hit, and the difference could even be reduced by the change in morale of both sides, which could be a negative impact on Chelsea's numerical inferiority.

Therefore, people have noticed that although Chelsea is now behind in the score, but, judging from the shape of the field, Chelsea is not in a hurry, but very calm, and is not in a hurry to equalize, but steady, just looking at the shape of the field, it is not clear that Chelsea is the side behind the score and the number is at a disadvantage.

As Ancelotti's old rival, Mancini naturally knew what Ancelotti was going to do, and when the game was 60 minutes into the game, Mancini suddenly gave an order to the team to press out, attack aggressively, and strive to score.

※※※※※※※

It was a real surprise for Chelsea and City were lucky enough to get on the scoresheet very quickly.

It was Yaya Toure who won the ball up front, he sent a through ball, Tevez crossed the ball to the wing, Zabaleta assisted and hoisted the ball into the box, De Jong headed the ball over the top of the goal in the box, and the ball was played out by Hilario.

With his back to the goal, Yang Fan chose to shoot with a barb.

The ball was blocked by Terry with his body, and then Kolarov's follow-up shot, the ball hit Alex's thigh and deflected, and it bounced into the goal.

“Goooooooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaal！”

"Kolarov!

"It's 2-0! City have a two-goal lead. ”

The Serbian full-back looked excited after the goal, and it was his first goal for his new club, and it was in such a crucial game as the race for a trophy, which really excited Kolarov.

The Manchester City fans sang and danced to cheer, this goal helped Manchester City to extend the score, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it will be another insurance for the victory!

There was thunder of joy on Manchester City's side, and Chelsea's side was mournful.

All of Carlo Ancelotti's plans were disrupted by the goal conceded, and at this time, Chelsea had no other way but to press out and attack, and when they were two goals down, Chelsea had no other way but to attack and try to score quickly.

Like a beast that has suddenly woken up, Chelsea began to launch wave after wave of fierce attacks on Manchester City's goal.

Manchester City, on the other hand, also began to deploy their troops, Zabaleta was replaced with the more defensive German international Boateng.

David Silva was also substituted and James Milner came on as a substitute.

In the face of Chelsea's last-minute madness, City looked a little passive. Their attacking and counter-attacking efforts also started to get simpler, and for a while, City began to regain the Premier League's instinct for long balls.

Mancini also replaced Tevez and replaced Adebayor, who had more header ability.

And retreated Yang Fan to the position of the front waist to deliver shells for Adebayo.

This did have a certain effect, in the eighty-ninth minute of the game, Yang Fan sent a beautiful ball, inserted Milner did not stop the ball, and directly hoisted the football into the penalty area, Adebayo grabbed the goal in front of the goal, and the football smashed on the crossbar, which shocked the Chelsea people in a cold sweat, and also curbed Chelsea's crazy offensive.

※※※※※※※

In the end, the score on the field did not change again, 2-0!

Manchester City won the Community Shield.

When the referee blew the whistle for the end of the match, there was a huge cheer in Wembley Stadium, and at this moment, the entire stadium was occupied by the champions Manchester City fans.

"It's over!"

"It's over!"

Manchester City beat Chelsea 2-0 and they won the first competitive game of the new season thanks to goals from Yang Fan and Kolarov, beating last season's league champions Chelsea! Narrator John Mortenson said.

"Although the current Manchester City team has not yet been successfully run-in, they still have a lot of areas to improve, but we still have to say that the current Manchester City team is definitely a member of the Premier League championship group, and there is definitely a place for Manchester City in the title competition for the new season!"
