Chapter 812: Recruiting Dzeko
The two commentators gossiped about Yang Fan's emotional scandal for a while, and began to focus on the game. Read the full text of the latest chapters -
"Liverpool are unbeaten in the last 8 'meetings' between the two sides with 5 wins and 3 draws, and the last 6 home games against Manchester City have won 5 and drawn 1. The two sides have met 24 Premier League games, with Liverpool having the upper hand with 12 wins, 9 draws and 3 losses, including 9 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss at home, with the only defeat coming in May 2003. The two sides have met 157 times in history, and Liverpool has the upper hand with 79 wins, 38 draws and 40 losses. Lineker said, "Liverpool have been in good shape lately, starting to push after a habitual 'sexual' malaise at the start of the season and are now back in the top four. Manchester City's recent form has been worse, they have drawn five in a row, and after Yang Fan's injury, Manchester City seem to have lost their way to win. ”
'The pressure on Mark Hughes is clearly enormous, and the team's Arab owner, Sheikh Mansour, has publicly expressed his displeasure. If City can't find a way to win, Mark Hughes' position is likely to be unstable. ”
"On Liverpool's side, Carragher, who was released from the ban, Gerrard and Babel, who had recovered from injury, rotated. ”
Manchester City only rotated Tevez with De Jong, with Petrov sidelined with a knee injury during the international break. ”
The first half of the game began amid the huge cheers at Anfield Stadium.
Throughout the first half of the game, both sides seemed to be out of shape, and the scene was relatively dull.
Fan Bing yawned, she still couldn't understand football, not to mention that today's game was so dull, she was a little sleepy.
"What's wrong, sleepy?" Yang Fan asked.
"It's not your ......" Fan Bing glanced at Yang Fan charmingly, in the hotel, Yang Fan tossed him enough, and now his body still feels soft.
Yang Fan laughed proudly.
At the end of the first half, neither side could find the back of the net and the score was taken to the break with a 0-0 scoreline.

"Would you like to take you to the VIP lounge to find a room to rest?" Yang Fan asked Fan Bing.
"No need. Fan Bing came up and grabbed Yang Fan's arm, she was tired of Yang Fan now, and wanted to entangle him with her hundred-foot silk.
Yang Fan took Fan Bing to drink a cup of coffee to refresh himself, but there, he met an old friend.
"Hi Edin. Yang Fan greeted Dzeko, he didn't expect to meet the former teammate here.
Dzeko also seemed very happy to see Yang Fan, he squeezed his eyes at Yang Fan, meaning that he had changed his 'girlfriend' again?
Yang Fan smiled and didn't explain much.
Wolfsburg's Bundesliga match this weekend has ended, Dzeko came to Liverpool with a few friends to watch this key game, he did not contact Yang Fan in advance, because he knew that Yang Fan was now recovering from an injury and did not want to trouble Yang Fan, he originally planned to visit Yang Fan in Manchester in two days, but he did not expect to meet Yang Fan at Anfield Stadium.
"I haven't congratulated you yet. Yang Fan said happily, Wolfsburg won the 2008/2009 Bundesliga championship, Dzeko also won the Bundesliga Golden Boot, Yang Fan previously only sent a text message to congratulate the former teammate, this is the first time Yang Fan has met since Yang Fan transferred away from Wolfsburg.
"Thank you. The team won the championship, and you are also indispensable. When Yang Fan was in Wolfsburg, he led Wolfsburg to win the German Cup and the League Cup, which accumulated a lot of confidence for Wolfsburg's subsequent Bundesliga summit.
After two seasons of the Bundesliga baptism, especially after winning the Bundesliga championship and the Bundesliga Golden Boot, Dzeko also looks 'spirited'.
※※※※※※※
"You kid, you're a big deal in the transfer market right now. Yang Fan quipped.
Although Yang Fan is two years younger than Dzeko, he speaks in such a tone, neither he nor Dzeko feels anything. After Dzeko transferred to Wolfsburg, he was Yang Fan's partner, to put it mildly, it was Yang Fan who brought Dzeko out, playing next to Yang Fan, Dzeko also learned a lot of things, made rapid progress, and was also affected by Yang Fan's style of play. Read the full text of the latest chapter
Dzeko, the centre-forward of Wolfsburg in the Bundesliga, is currently the most popular attacking player in the upcoming winter transfer market, and his value has risen to a staggering 38 million pounds.
Despite playing in the Bundesliga, Dzeko is already recognised as one of the top goalscorers in football, with Real Madrid and Chelsea all interested in the striker. Since joining Wolfsburg for €4 million two years ago, the previously unknown Dzeko has gradually grown into one of the top 'goalscorers' in the Bundesliga, and now the most eye-catching one is AC Milan. Dutch striker Huntelaar, who Milan bought from Real Madrid in the summer, has been in poor form and has yet to break the goal drought, which has led AC Milan to focus on the transfer market again, with their eyes on Dzeko and rumours that Milan have made an offer to Wolfsburg. Their offer is 14 million euros, however, this offer was thrown directly into the trash by Wolfsburg, just kidding, the Bundesliga Golden Boot, you only pay 14 million euros, no problem with your brain.
AC Milan don't want to shell out more, they have their own way, after learning that Dzeko is a Milan 'fan', Galliani played the emotional card, trying to persuade Dzeko to rebel in Wolfsburg, so that the player himself put pressure on the club to get Dzeko at a lower transfer price.
It is true that Dzeko is a Milan football 'fan', but AC Milan's stinginess still caused Dzeko's dissatisfaction, I want to go to Milan, but you can't be so excessive, what is the transfer value? In a certain sense, the transfer value also represents the value of a player, and if the transfer value is too low, the player's face is not good-looking.
Therefore, Dzeko also directly told Milan, I am willing to go to Milan, but you can't go too far, you have to negotiate the transfer fee with the club yourself, I don't care.
※※※※※※※
Yang Fan and Dzeko talked about this matter, for others, Dzeko may not open his heart, but he and Yang Fan have a good relationship, so naturally there is nothing to talk about, and in his words, Dzeko also 'revealed' his complaints about Milan.
"Ha, 14 million?" Yang Fan said with a laugh and sarcasm, "They are really rich." ”
Dzeko also shook his head, he didn't want to talk about it anymore, and it was estimated that he would have a headache about it.
"Are you ready to leave Wolfsburg?" Yang Fan asked.
"It's hard to say right now, but I'm always going to leave in the future. Dzeko admitted that this is indeed the case, don't look at Wolfsburg won the Bundesliga championship, but Wolfsburg cannot become a giant', and they do not have this arrogance, and the players will naturally not want to stay in such a team all the time, and sooner or later they want to leave.
"When you want to leave, tell me. Yang Fan said half-jokingly, "When the time comes, I will consider coming to Manchester City, and we will partner together." Create a new future together. ”
Yang Fan said this in a joking tone, he didn't want to embarrass Dzeko, when he said this, his heart was also moved, this can really be had, when he was in Wolfsburg, he and Dzeko cooperated very tacitly, and the Black Cypriots were also very selfless on the court, and they were a good partner. If the cooperation is pleasant, why can't we 'continue the frontier'?
Dzeko was also moved in his heart, although Yang Fan just said this casually, but he was also a little tempted in his heart, although it can't be said that he has a tendency to go to Manchester City, but he didn't think about Manchester City before, and now, he began to think about it.
Although Manchester City is not a giant, however, this team does not hide its ambition to become a giant, Yang Fan transferred to Manchester City for 150 million pounds, which gave many stars in the football world a great shock, they also saw Manchester City's ambitions, Yang Fan such superstars can come to Manchester City, when they choose Manchester City, there is no pressure, and they are not afraid of people saying that they are coming to this team for money.
Yang Fan and Dzeko only clicked to the end and did not continue to talk about this topic, after all, Dzeko did not clearly want to transfer, this matter is not in a hurry.
Yang Fan shook hands with Dzeko and said goodbye, and then he returned to his seat with Fan Bing, at this time, the second half of the game had begun.
※※※※※※※
Liverpool broke the deadlock in the 50th minute when Zabaleta fouled Ngog on the flank, Gerrard crossed from a free-kick from the left, and Skrtel stretched out his leg and stabbed into the net from the edge of the six-yard box before Adebayo.
“gooooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaaal!”
The whole Anfield stadium is boiling at this moment, like the ground is shaking, Liverpool's Anfield stadium is definitely the craziest stadium in the Premier League, the best stadium atmosphere at home, and the whole stadium is full of fanatical factors.
Seeing Liverpool score and take the lead, Yang Fan's face was no longer smiling, he knew that the team was in a difficult situation now, and if this game was lost, Manchester City's ranking would fall further.
Liverpool controlled the ball in midfield and Carragher assisted in midfield, who passed the ball to Babbel. Then run forward on your own.
De Jong pounced on Babbel like a villain pounced on a little girl, and Babbel saw De Jong pounce on him with murderous vigour. I panicked, he was shoveled to the ground by De Jong in the first half of the game, and now there is still a psychological 'shadow'.
Seeing the murderous De Jong, Babel hurriedly passed the ball back horizontally, but he seemed to have forgotten that Carragher was no longer in that position!
Wright Phillips easily receives the ball that Babbel "passes to him". Now it can be said that there is a flat horse in front of him, and Carragher rushed up, and he has not yet returned.
"Oooh, oh! Babbel misses the ball!
Carragher, who ran to the front, found the ball behind him and quickly turned to chase back. But it was too late, and Wright Phillips was already pushing forward at high speed with the ball.
Skrtel rushed up to defend Wright Phillips, hoping to use his experience to jam the position. But he was so clumsy in front of the nimble Wright Phillips, the little Phillips was very fast, and nimble like macaroni, he made three changes of direction in a row in the run, and Scott was stunned, and his steps began to stumble, and then Wright Phillips was naturally not polite. He walked past Skrtel's side, then 'slashed' diagonally into the box!
Skrtel quickly turned around to chase after him, but his center of gravity was unstable, and he slipped and fell to the ground.
Huge boos erupted in the stands.
Now, Wright Phillips, who burst into the box, can 'shoot' and 'goal' and pass the ball, he can choose as much as he wants......
Liverpool's Spanish goalkeeper Reina was on the lookout, and his first choice was to block Wright Phillips' shot.
Aurelio, who had returned from the remark, also pounced on Wright Phillips to block his shot.
※※※※※※※
Wright Phillips picks up his right leg and strikes the door!
Aurelio rushed up and slid desperately, hoping to block the shot...... But his opponent didn't kick the football out. Instead, he suddenly buckled to the middle, which not only deceived Liverpool's 'goalkeeper' Reina, but more importantly, made Aurelio, who had already slid the tackle, dumbfounded.
Unable to stop the car, Aurelio tackled Wright Phillips.
Wright Phillips fell to the ground and fell in the box!
The referee's whistle sounded!
'Aurelio tackles Wright Phillips and the City winger goes to the ground! There is no doubt about it!Less than ten minutes after Liverpool scored, Manchester City won a penalty!' shouted Eddie Gray.
The stands at Anfield stadium booed the sky, and Liverpool fans cursed angrily, they didn't care that Aurelio did foul Wright Phillips, they only knew that Manchester City won the penalty, which was not good for Liverpool, they were going to boo, they were going to curse. What an unpretentious ball 'fan'.
In the VIP box, seeing this scene, Yang Fan shook his arms violently. Then he turned around and hugged Fan Bing beside him tightly, kissed Fan Bing's pretty face, and shouted in his mouth, 'Oye!'.
'Penalty, City got the penalty. It's a perfect display of Wright Phillips' personal skills! Since returning to Manchester City from Chelsea, Phillips has returned to his factory settings, he has come out of his time at Chelsea, and his current watch is 'fantastic'. ”
Lineker also followed: "The biggest responsibility for this penalty is not the foul Aurelio, it is Babbel, the Dutchman's midfielder's low-level passing error, which directly caused Liverpool's defense to collapse instantly, which also directly led to the appearance of this penalty." ”
The Manchester City players all ran to Wright Phillips. Hold him in the middle. Congratulations to him. Cheers and celebrates for what he just saw. He used his individual skills to bring a turnaround for the team.
※※※※※※※
Yang Fan was not on the pitch, and Manchester City's penalty taker was Bam Adebayor.
He stood in front of the penalty spot with the soccer ball in his arms, carefully placed it on the white spot, and then stepped away.
Yang Fan was in the box, his fists clenched.
The referee's whistle sounded, Adebayo assisted, 'shot' 'goal', he 'shot' to the middle, Liverpool 'goalkeeper' pounced Reina to the left, and the ball went in.
“goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaal!”
'Bam Adebayor, he scored from the penalty and City scored, they equalised. ”
Yang Fan also jumped up in the box, and he waved his fist in celebration, which made Fan Bing glare at Yang Fan reproachfully, and reminded, "Be careful of your feet." ”
After the equaliser, Manchester City's morale was boosted.
They took the lead in the 76th minute when Carlos Tevez, who had just come on as a substitute, crossed from the left, Wright-Phillips turned away from Kirgiakos on the left side of the penalty area and crossed for an unguarded Ireland to push a shot into the net.
The goal left Anfield Stadium silent, with Yang Fan shouting excitedly and cheering for his teammates.
Looking at the 'excited' Yang Fan, Fan Bing's face 'showed' a smile, and Yang Fan was as happy as a child at this time.
※※※※※※※
However, Liverpool equalised just one minute later, Ngog's 'shot' from the right side of the penalty area was blocked and deflected to the far post, Given's interception was unsuccessful, and Benayoun swept the 'shot' into the net from close range.
Two to two!
It was a game of great change, with both sides playing dullly in the first half and not scoring goals, but in the second half, the goals continued to score and goals almost followed.
With a 2-2 scoreline, which was the final score of the game, City still failed to get a win, but it seemed acceptable to take away a draw from Anfield.
Manchester City drew 2-2 away at Liverpool.
Just the next day, in distant China, the Chinese team also ushered in an Asian Cup qualifier match in the absence of Yang Fan, and finally the Chinese team defeated the Lebanese team 1-0.
It took more than a week to prepare, but in exchange for a 1-0 result, and the opponent was still Lebanon. After the game, some football 'fans' shouted the slogans of "Gao Hongbo is out of class" and "the national team is disbanded", and some people even think that such a result is simply "embarrassing".
Away from home, China won 2-0 against Lebanon, and Gao Hongbo felt the team could have played better in that game, "but the venue and other factors limited our performance".
Compared to Lebanon's "vegetable field", the turf of the Huanglong Sports Center was close to perfect, but the Chinese team only scored a header in the 18th minute by Dewey, which was also the only goal of the game.
In the second half of the game, the Lebanese team even took the initiative on the field. When the game was coming to an end, the Chinese team's offense was still not 'improving', and the helpless Gao Hongbo could only lean on the bench, his hands 'inserted' in his 'trousers' pockets, and he was speechless for a long time.
After the game, some of the "excited" ball "fans" whistled, and when Gao Hongbo walked off the field, they even shouted "class". Gao Hongbo didn't react to this, just waved his hand at the ball 'fans' who greeted him.
"Only one goal was scored in this game, it's a shame!" A football 'fan' expressed his dissatisfaction in an interview with CCTV, "Even Lebanon is struggling to win, what can it do to play with Syria? Asia can't rush out, let alone the World Cup!"
After the game, the national football team accumulated 9 points, 1 point behind the Syrian team, and ranked second in Group D.
