In the 8o minute, Bale's diagonal shot from the edge of the box on the right side was missed. In the 86th minute, Manchester City played a combination at the front of the Porto penalty area, Tevez and Reus passed each other to tear apart Porto's defense, Reus took the ball past Rolando, and gave the ball to Suarez who was ambushed in the penalty area in time, but unfortunately Suarez played high and missed the opportunity to lock the win.

The Porto man was in control of the game even in stoppage time, with the Porto man only able to stop City by fouling, with Elton and Rolando receiving yellow cards in succession.

With the Porto's last set-piece shot wide of the net, Manchester City eventually won 1-O against Porto to win the Europa League in 1o11.

This is Li Chengfeng's second Europa League and third European title, and Li Chengfeng has once again proved his ability and is now one of the best coaches in the world. This is also Manchester City's first title in 35 years, but it is by no means the last, and it is believed that under the leadership of Li Chengfeng, Manchester City will be able to break the traditional pattern of England and become a real giant.

"The English league has always been Manchester United, Arsenal, Chelsea and Liverpool competing for Champions League qualification, and perhaps now Tottenham Hotspur, until the emergence of Sheffield Wednesday under Li Chengfeng five years ago, and when he left England, England returned to the rule of these teams. Now the man is back and leading a richer and stronger team. Under the leadership of Li Chengfeng, the emerging force Manchester City won the European championship in its first season and has a chance to win the treble. Regardless of the final result, their season has been extremely successful, and it was led by the world's best coach (or at least one of them) Li Chengfeng. Now, the wolves are really coming, are you ready? ”

However, no matter how much the media praised Manchester City's success this season, the English champions eventually left Manchester City. Although Blackpool worked hard, they fell behind twice and equalised twice, making Li Chengfeng think that the tenacious could work a miracle. However, a miracle did not happen, and when the more tenacious United broke down their goal again, they were never able to recover the scoreline, and finally lost the crucial game 2-4 and suffered relegation.

It's a shame that they only needed a draw to be relegated. Manchester United's victory declared the final title of the season, and even a win in the final round of the game would not change the result. Manchester United won the title again with 8o points, the lowest number of points ever won in England. However, the champion is the champion, and even if Manchester City also got 8o points, they could still only finish second because of goal difference.

Losing the championship for such reasons made Li Chengfeng very unhappy, if Manchester City could be more stable this season, and the players could be more mature, I am afraid that the championship will not be left behind. It's a pity that the truth is irreparable, and Li Chengfeng has no time to be upset, there is still a championship waiting for him to compete for, that is, the FA Cup championship.

Manchester City's opponents in the FA Cup final, Stoke City, are not a strong team, Li Chengfeng is not worried about their quality, he is only worried about whether the regret of losing the league title will affect the team's fighting ability, or whether the satisfaction of the Europa League title will make the players less hungry for the title. On the football field, it is not necessarily the stronger team that will win, and the strong desire to win also has a big impact.

Li Chengfeng will not let accidents happen, he gave the players early vaccinations, "We are much stronger than our opponents, as long as we don't have problems ourselves, they have no chance." We've beaten them twice this season, and there's nothing to do again. Stoke's only way to do it is to defend and scramble, and maybe foul it. Don't be afraid, don't back down, face it bravely, the champion must be ours. ”

"There's no one who doesn't like champions, like me. Champions can bring glory, prestige, income, champions can bring everything. Li Chengfeng looked at the player in front of him, "Now that a champion is in front of you, I hope you can do your best to get him." Get the championship and you'll get everything. ”

"Remember, do your best and never back down." Li Chengfeng did not send all the main forces in this game, as the head coach, you also need to consider the mood of those important rotation players, and Stoke City is really not a strong team, as long as you swing normally, even if only half of the main force is sent, it is normal for Manchester City to win the game.

A number of players who failed to feature in the Europa League final were given the opportunity to play, such as young goalkeeper Joe Hart, who has always been in the cup, as well as Dzeko, Silva, Milner, Boateng and most importantly, the appearance of Toni Klos, who was developed as the heart of Manchester City's future midfield, allowing him to learn from Motta how to control the situation in the midfield position. Although he was still a little immature at the beginning, he has been improving, and now, it is time to test his learning. Li Chengfeng arranged for him to partner with Vidal and Modric in midfield, just as he did in the real world when he was at Real Madrid with Casemiro and Modric.

In the second minute, Silva's cross from the left was blocked by a Stoke City defender, Manchester City won a corner, and Kolarov's pass caused chaos in the opposition box, but the City players could not complete the shot. Since then, the battle between the two sides has mainly focused on the midfield, and the Stoke people have spared no effort to run and scramble in the midfield, trying to contain the swing of the Manchester City midfield, and they know that if this game allows the Manchester City midfield to organize the attack calmly, the defeat will be inevitable.

However, after the baptism of the Europa League final, Manchester City's players have adapted to such a degree of pressing, and the huge gap in the strength of the players cannot be completely erased by hard work, Manchester City still suppresses the opponent on the field, and frequently threatens the goal of Stoke City. In the 5th minute, Milner suddenly shot from the left side of the field, and Sorensen struggled to save the ball. In the 8th minute, Silva and Kolarov continued to make a fuss on the left flank, and the attacking Manchester City began to suppress the opponent.

In the 9th minute, Silva crossed from the left, and Modric, who was inserted in the middle, fired an anti-aircraft gun. One minute later, Kolarov broke down the left and crossed, and Shawcross's clearance came close to an own goal. In the 11th minute, Milner volleyed in with the outside of his right foot from 35 yards out, and the ball went wide of the right post. In the 13th minute, Dzeko was elbowed to the ground by Hutter on the edge of the opposition penalty area, but the perpetrator escaped the referee's eyes. In the 18th minute, Tony Klos made a long pass to Dzeko in the midfield, and Sorens made a timely attack to defuse the danger.

In the 24th minute, Luka Modric drove in front of a long drive and distributed the ball to Silva on the left, whose curling shot went straight into the corner for Sorens to make a world-class save. One minute later, Manchester City made a steal in front, and Dzeko, who won the ball on the left, forced a shot high under close pressure from the opponent. In the 3o minute, Kompany stepped forward and his shot from near the top of the arc was right in the arms of Sorens. In the 31st minute, Pennant took a free kick from the right side of the field, and Joe Hart easily confiscated the ball. In the 35th minute, Dzeko sent a clever pass in front of the goal, and Silva's shot went over the crossbar.

In the 35th minute, Hute brought down Richards and received a yellow card, Manchester City won a free-kick in front, and Kolarov's shot went high. In the 42nd minute, Vidal pushed a shot from the outside of the arc of the penalty area, and the ball went off the post.

The first half of the game was basically a shooting show for Manchester City, poor Stoke City only had two very good long-range shots, although the score on the field was still o:o, but everyone knew that it was only a matter of time before Manchester City broke the Stoke City goal.

Li Chengfeng also doesn't think the team will be able to win this game, as long as Manchester City can continue to attack like in the first half, "Don't be impatient, just play like in the first half." We are Manchester City, we are European champions, believe in ourselves and we will win. ”

At the beginning of the second half, the situation on the field did not change at all, and Manchester City still bombarded the Stoke City half. In the 46th minute, Klos made a direct pass from the midfield, and Kolarov, who was inserted on the left side, shot from a small angle and hit the side netting.

Feeling that normal kicks could not contain Manchester City's attack, Stoke's movements became bigger and bigger, fouls were endless, and he received several yellow cards in succession. But to Li Chengfeng's relief, Manchester City's players did not lose their rhythm and were still able to stick to their tactics. These players have really improved and the Europa League title has given them the confidence to be able to believe in themselves, their team-mates and their coaches even when they are struggling. This is the effect of the championship, which is the basis of the so-called giant heritage. Manchester City are not giants yet, but they are on the right track.

In the 55th minute, Manchester City played a quick counter-attack, Dzeko passed the ball to Silva, the Spaniard who outflanked in the middle adjusted too much and missed a good chance, and Dzeko's volley was blocked by the opposition defender one minute later.

In the 59th minute, Richards played a wall-to-wall link with Silva on the right and cut high, but Sorensen came out faster to break the ball. Two minutes later, Stoke City played a long pass from the back, Jones ate Lescott raw and went straight into the box, and the brave Joe Hart used his foot to block the opposition striker's inevitable shot.

Isn't Stoke City still dead? Li Chengfeng began to make substitutions, replacing Dzeko with Suarez, who returned from ban, and replacing Silva with Reus, Li Chengfeng asked the players on the field to play more directly, strengthen the breakthrough, and destroy the opponent's defensive formation.

In the 74th minute, Luka Modric passed the ball to Reus, who played the ball on the left side of the box, Suarez's shot was blocked by defender Shawcross, and Milner followed up with a blast to break the deadlock for his team, giving Manchester City a 1-o lead.
