Chapter 680: Half-way Champion!
Chapter 680 Halfway Champion!
"Pretty !!!!"
The game was already underway, and when Dennis used a pull to get past the defence and sent a straight threatening pass to the wing, the commentators couldn't help but cheer for the 18-year-old!
Five minutes into the game, Denis Suarez's performance was a surprise!
Of course, it is impossible to say how good it is, it can only be said that it is decent, but it is this decent performance that makes Reading's pre-game strategy invalid.
Because before the game, Reading arranged a tactic to play Denis Suarez, so they don't worry about whether it will hurt the confidence of a young player.
The other party's obvious weakness is, isn't it a fool not to take advantage of it?
However, apart from the initial panic, Dennis gradually stabilized, and he was calm in the face of the opponent's rush to grab the ball, and after receiving the ball, he passed the ball with a kick, trying not to let the opponent entangle himself.
Although Dennis is decent and there is nothing surprising about it, but this is already the fulfillment of Gao Bo's requirements for him, and he does not expect Dennis to do anything in the first start, he just needs to complete the task of exceedingly in the midfield.
The task was relatively simple, so after a few minutes, Dennis got used to it.
When in a direct confrontation with the other party, Dennis felt that his physical confrontation ability had improved a lot, which made him full of confidence!
It looks like I'm too nervous!
Dennis's eyes began to look elsewhere, his head kept looking left and right, and he became more relaxed when he received the ball at his feet!
Gao Bo nodded off the court, and so far he has been happy with Dennis's performance.
What many people lack, in his opinion, was an opportunity, a rally that really allowed him to play confidently.
In the case of Dennis, his skills are already at the top of his age, and even Iniesta of the same age does not have to be better than him.
But if you follow the trajectory of another time and space, Denis Suarez is a good player at best, and he will definitely not reach the height of Iniesta.
Is the reason for this just technical?
The influence of mindset cannot be ignored!
Gao Bo looked at another player, Adam White.
Even Adam, an unknown man in another period of history, has been turned into a Premier League star by Gao Bo, so why can't Denis Suarez develop even better?
Gao Bo drooled as he looked at Dennis's vision attributes.
With such a high field of vision, it would be a pity if you couldn't kick it out.
At this time, Gao Bo couldn't help but applaud one of Dennis's performances!
I saw that on the court, Denis Suarez did not pass directly after receiving the ball as before, but suddenly changed, he stepped on the ball under his feet, and then pulled the ball with his right foot and turned around!!
This time let the Reading player who pounced too hard be passed!
Then Dennis sent a long ball forward!
Adam White stopped the ball for offside and then crossed it with his left foot towards goal!
Vardy scrambled the ball into the back of the net!!
Just six minutes into the game, Manchester City had scored!!
Manchester City, who rotate their lineup, seem to be just as sharp in attack!!
In the following game, Reading at home used their speed and impact against Manchester City.
However, City are not afraid of this move, and the back four of the defenders at the back are not slow to be physical.
The pace of the game was slowly controlled by Manchester City.
If Manchester City's first goal was just Dennis's plan, Manchester City's second goal was directly related to him!
In the 36th minute of the game, Manchester City won a corner!
In this game, the corner kick Gao Bo also let Dennis take the penalty.
Denis Suarez's corner kick went down the middle, Maguire stepped in from the back row and jumped high to smash the ball headlong into the back of the net!!
Two to zero!!
Man City scored again!!
At half-time, many players in the locker room came up to high-five Dennis.
The young player, who had previously been a little transparent in the dressing room, was suddenly in the spotlight of the players.
Judging from the performance in the first half alone, Dennis was already very good, one planned attack, one direct assist goal, he can be regarded as a perfect first-team debut.
Gao Bo also praised Dennis's performance, and the atmosphere in the Manchester City dressing room was quite lively.
In the second half, Dennis was also very active, but Reading clearly stepped up his defence.
Dennis became more and more confident about the ball, but it didn't work out for the first half.
Gao Bo shook his head on the sidelines, judging from the ten minutes of play, Dennis still didn't look very mature.
If David Silva is playing this position, David Silva will never let himself ask for the ball frequently when the opponent is focused on taking care of him, he will create opportunities for players in other positions by running and pulling, because if the opponent focuses on himself, then this means that the defense in other positions is relatively weak, and once the opponent no longer pays attention to himself, then the opportunity will not come again.
Moreover, Dennis frequently asks for the ball at his feet, and it is easy to get injured.
Therefore, in the 68th minute of the game, Gao Bo replaced the unfinished Dennis from the field.
Although Dennis Jr. is still a little reluctant to give up on the court, he certainly doesn't dare to throw a big name in front of the manager.
Gao Bo hugged Dennis as he left the game: "Good job, Dennis!" ”
Dennis grinned as he returned to the bench and high-fived the players on the bench before taking his seat.
He came off the bench with Christian Eriksen, who was given more than 20 minutes to adapt after returning from injury.
In the 80th minute of the game, Eriksen set up a goal from Barry, who was cut in the back row, with a wide cross and looked to be back in good form.
In the end, Manchester City won 3-0 away at Reading!!
With Chelsea and Manchester United also winning in this round, Manchester City are still three points ahead of Chelsea and four points ahead of Manchester United at the top of the table. And if Manchester City win the next round of the league, they will win the half of the league!!
....
Three days later, the nineteenth round of the league and the final round of the first half of the league.
Manchester City host Sunderland!
There were no big surprises in this game.
Although Manchester City also went through a lot of rotation, Sunderland still didn't have any chances when they played away.
From the start of the game, the tempo was at the feet of Manchester City.
With one goal in each half, Manchester City won against Sunderland.
After the halfway league, Manchester City won 16 and drew three, got 51 points, topped the standings, and won the halfway league title.
