"Oh! City started the game with a ferocious press, and although they had only three men in midfield, both full-backs mentioned in midfield, so it was clear that they were going to attack in this game......

"Well, but it seems not surprising that Manchester City have been attacking and Portsmouth have been on the defensive, as you can see from the starters of both sides."

Portsmouth's progress was a little difficult under Manchester City's pressing, and Las Diarra was going to show off his ball control and playmaking skills, but Yaya Toure and Parker pounced on him at the same time, and Diarra, even if he was confident, knew that the situation was not good, so he immediately passed the ball to Muntari.

Muntari picked up the ball on the flank and saw that Richards was about to approach him, and then the Ghanaian had the whimsical idea to take a step down the middle and shoot from 35 yards out!

Even Richards didn't expect it at this time, after all, at such a long distance, it would be a joke to say that you are sure to shoot in from a distance, and the opponent's goalkeeper is not wood, do you just watch you shoot......

Dick's eyebrows jumped off the field, he remembered that Muntari was a bit nervous, sometimes his mistakes on the field were unbelievably low, and sometimes he was often able to make some incredible passes or shots, if suddenly at this time the gods possessed him into a long shot like a flying fairy, it would be a bit difficult to do......

However, it is clear that the possession of the gods is not always right, and Muntari's long-range shot flew towards the goal, but the speed was not particularly fast, the angle was not tricky, and there was not too much arc, Hart easily judged the landing point of the ball, and took off the ball in the air with an easy jump.

"Attack!"

Hart shouted and threw the ball out, the ball fell directly to the feet of Barnes, who began to dribble forward, and when Utaka rushed towards him, he had already raised his foot to pass the ball to Barton in the middle, who did not stick to the ball, but directly distributed the ball to Parker in front.

Parker took the ball, Diarra rushed towards him, he was considered a replacement for Makelele when he debuted, although he has always had a heart at the heart of the heart of the midfield, but his best is still his running and interception.

Parker didn't give him much of a chance, but lifted his foot to pass the ball to Yaya Toure, who dribbled forward and played a diagonal pass to Ribery on the wing after Mendes came up to defend.

Glen Johnson is starting to get nervous, Ribery has used his speed and skill to eat the entire Premier League right-back this season, he has also suffered Ribery's losses in the league, and he is really a little scared against Ribery.

However, his speed is not slow, as long as Ribery is not allowed to burst into the penalty area, and if he crosses, there is Campbell's defense in the middle, and Portsmouth is not too afraid of the opponent's high-altitude ball attack.

Ribery bobbed back and forth a few times, then slid the ball near the baseline, Johnson immediately followed, but Ribery quickly pulled the ball back and did not cross, but raised his foot to pass the ball to Yaya Toure, who was a little closer to the middle.

Yaya Toure got the ball and there were two defenders in front of him, he didn't force a breakthrough, but passed to Parker in the middle, Parker transferred again, the ball passed to Richards who was inserted on the right side, Richards looked at the situation in the penalty area, decisively crossed with his feet, Torres and Campbell jumped up and fought for the top at the same time, and finally Campbell took the lead in clearing, the ball flew out of the penalty area, Parker controlled the ball and then distributed it to the left side, Ribery stopped the ball, and then suddenly passed a ball to the ground!

The ball crossed directly in front of the goal and flew to the back post, where Di Natale shot directly at the first time under the defense of the opposing defenders, and the ball hit the side netting heavily, causing the Portsmouth fans in the stands to let out a burst of exclamation!

"Man City took the initiative from the start! How long can Portsmouth support such an attack? ”

In fact, Portsmouth didn't hold out for long.

Manchester City's flood of attacks made Portsmouth's midfield suppressed into their own half, whether it was Diarra or Muntari to get the ball, they were forced by Manchester City's players, these two midfielders themselves are a bit sticky players, although they can quickly return to defense after being cut off, but after all, it will also bring great danger......

In the twentieth minute, Yaya Toure made a beautiful steal of Diarra's ball in the midfield, and then quickly distributed the ball to Ribery, Ribery broke through Johnson's defense and then cut into the penalty area, facing Campbell, who came from the position, raised his foot to pass the ball to the middle, and the follow-up Torres fell to the ground and shoveled the ball into the door of Portsmouth for the first time!

Manchester City lead 1-0!

"Under the pressure of Manchester City's attack, the door of Portsmouth has finally been opened! Manchester City are 1-0 up in the game! City have been attacking for 20 minutes, Portsmouth have had little decent attack, and if it goes on like this, this FA Cup final seems a little too boring, and hopefully Portsmouth can play better in the future......

The commentator's words drew boos from the Manchester City fans in front of the TV, who said they didn't care if the final was boring or boring, as long as they could win the game, it would be a good game!

However, Portsmouth soon proved that they didn't just have to make a trip to the final, at least at this time, they still have a lot of fighting spirit and want to show what they can do in this game - even if they themselves don't think it's possible to beat Manchester City, they won't surrender so easily!

After kick-off, Portsmouth quickly launched an attack, Muntari took the ball and passed a beautiful through ball, Kanu took the ball at the edge of the penalty area, first got rid of Kompany's defense, and then shook continuously, so that Samuel lost his balance a little, and then he shot decisively in the box, the ball was saved by Hart, and the substitute Barnes cleared the ball in the box!

Manchester City immediately repaid Portsmouth with an attack, Di Natale received the ball and passed it to Torres, who then passed to Ribery, Ribery took the ball and cut across and shot vigorously at the top of the penalty area, the ball was held by James and hit the post and popped up, Campbell grabbed in front of Torres and cleared the ball!

The two sides went back and forth for a while, and after the Manchester City fans felt that the situation had stabilized, one of Portsmouth's attacks scored a goal!

Utaka forced his way through Barnes' defence with his speed on the flank, then sent a cross close to the line, Hart tried to intercept the ball halfway through, but the save came out of his hands, the ball flew right in front of Kanu, and the Nigerian striker took advantage of his height and long legs, and stabbed the ball into the door of Manchester City before Samuel fell to the ground!

One to one! Portsmouth scored their first goal in the FA Cup final, and all three of their last three goals have been scored by Kanu, and the Nigerian veteran has shown his worth in such a game!

'Don't worry, guys, it's only the first half, we were a little bit sloppy when we were ahead, and we can't afford to do that again...... In the second half we have to strengthen the attack and don't give them too many chances, remember, this is the last game, even if you fight, it's just the last 45 minutes, you just have to perform, Portsmouth is worse than us, as long as we don't make mistakes, they have absolutely no chance! It's a test of the game, and if we can't win against Portsmouth, why fight for the trophy next season? Believe in our ability, we are the strongest team in the Premier League this season, Manchester United, Arsenal, Chelsea and Liverpool are not our opponents, let alone Portsmouth! ”

Dick waved his fist and shouted slogans in the locker room, there is nothing wrong with his tactical arrangement, at this time it depends on the self-discipline of the players, after a season, everyone is tired, everyone is looking forward to the next holiday, and the players who are eligible for the European Cup are also looking forward to the European Cup.

However, the game has reached this point, as long as the players still have a sense of honor, they can be easily stimulated, especially in the first half without creating any advantage, Dick's words are enough to inspire the players to inspire great fighting spirit.

In such a situation, the Manchester City players came out.

This is not good news for Portsmouth, because after the first half of the game, they thought they had a chance to win the title, but in the second half they faced not an irritable Manchester City side, but a more morale-boosting but calmer Manchester City!

In attack, Manchester City did not rush as soon as they came up, but spread out possession in the midfield, although Portsmouth had a large number of midfielders and pressed fiercely, but they still could not prevent Manchester City from slowly pushing the line forward and then creating chances by running.

Portsmouth's defense mainly relies on Campbell's excellent play, and the strength of other defenders is not particularly good, but Campbell is only one person after all, whether it is in positional battles or set-pieces, in the face of Manchester City's multi-point flowering attack, Campbell is also a little unable to support it......

Just five minutes into the second half, Torres broke through to create a corner, Ribery drove a corner, Kompany and others attracted the defense of the opposing defenders in the middle, Di Natale at the back point unloaded the ball on his chest, and then directly raised his foot to volley into the near corner of the goal, giving Manchester City a second lead in the game!

Portsmouth, who fell behind again, wanted to counterattack, but was quickly hit by Manchester City's counterattack, Parker's pick pass allowed Ribery to form a single knife on the side, and after breaking through to the penalty area, Ribery chose to pass, and the follow-up Yaya Toure jumped high in the penalty area to press the opposing defender and shook his head to the top, Manchester City led by two goals!

By this time, Dick smiled, knowing that no one could stop Manchester City from winning the Champions Cup, and that Manchester City were about to become the first team to win the top competition in England!

In the next game, Dick frequently changed players, and successively replaced Ribery, Yaya Toure and Samuel with three young players, Bale, Vidal and Cahill, these three young players are Manchester City's future wealth, and will also be an important rotation player next season, this season Dick is constantly giving them opportunities, next season, they will definitely become important players for Manchester City!

When the final whistle blew, the whole stadium was filled with the cheers of Manchester City fans, three to one, Manchester City won the third championship of the season, and the effect after Dick became the owner was immediate!
