If there is a difference of one goal, it is very easy to fill the gap between the strength of Manchester City and Wolfsburg, and the difference of two goals is enough to make Manchester City angry and desperately attack, then the difference of three goals, no matter how arrogant they are, Manchester City's players have lost the courage to fight again at this time.

In the game against Wolfsburg, with Mandzukic's third goal, Manchester City also completely accepted their defeat in this game. Listening to the cheerful singing of the fans on the sidelines, and seeing that their team once again conceded a goal due to a sneak attack, they also understood that if they wanted to turn the tables around, there was absolutely no chance. It's 75 minutes and it's unrealistic to score three goals in just a dozen minutes to turn things around.

Manchester City lost to their opponents again in the Champions League, although they have improved compared to last year and the year before, but their Champions League road has not been able to soar and is still a long way to go.

Maybe it's because of the demoralization of Wolfsburg's goal, maybe it's because there is no hope, and the motivation to work hard has been lost, just as Wolfsburg fans think, with this goal, Manchester City's overall momentum has suddenly fallen to the bottom. In the following game, they did not have the courage to fight any further, on the court, they passed the ball back and forth weakly, no matter who it was, they did not have the courage to attack again. They ended the game in a hurry, and as soon as the game was over, they left Wolfsburg's home stadium as if they were running away.

Their defeat caused the biggest upset in the round of 16 match, Wolfsburg defeated Manchester City and successfully advanced to the quarterfinals.

'Wolfsburg played better than us in the game, they deserved more than us. Our players were too nervous to play to their full strength. It's a crisis of confidence, and I'll find out why. I believe that I will lead the team back to winning ways and we will be able to do better and better. ”

For this game. After the game, when Pellegrini was interviewed, there was something right in his words, for the Manchester City players. They always have too much psychological burden on the game, which makes them play worse and worse. Before, they were only beaten by the giants, and now, being kicked like this by Wolfsburg, for them. It's simply unforgivable.

In fact, if you really talk about it, Manchester City played very well in these two cities. Whether it was the overall dominance of the previous game, or the quick adjustment and adaptation of the sneak attack by Wolfsburg in the later game, and then launched a counterattack, Manchester City played a very bright spot in the game. In both games, they never completely lost their chances, two games before and after. They all hit the post, so it's fair to say they had a lot of chances and they had a decent grasp, but unfortunately their luck was a bit worse.

In the first two games, the two goalposts failed to convert into goals, and in the two games before and after, there were cases where Wolfsburg counterattacked and scored goals. For Manchester City's way of losing, one can only sigh. Their luck is indeed very back, and there are indeed some problems with their own strength. Against an opponent like Wolfsburg, they shouldn't have made such a mistake. However, in the end, they buried their victory because of their stupidity.

"If this game is really watched by God, then it can only be said that God is certainly not a Manchester City fan."

For the game, the more neutral media. It is still a relatively objective evaluation of the level of both sides. Manchester City's overall strength is superior, and there is no doubt about it. It's just that although there is such an objective view, it is definitely not the vast majority, and on the British side, almost no one thinks so.

The British media, after the game, were almost one-sided in their criticism of Manchester City.

A game of 21, a game of 31, home and away were killed, Manchester City once again bid farewell to the Champions League early. With the total salary of the world's top five, but there is still no shadow of the top eight in the Champions League, Manchester City can only become a laughing stock again. After the game, the British media was also full of accusations for their poor performance, and simply regarded them as a shame in the Premier League.

After all, on the whole, it is easier for a continental competition like the Champions League to add glory to your team than the league. Even if a team is showing off its power in its own league and is invincible, compared to being famous in European competitions, it is still much worse in honor.

Lyon won seven consecutive championships in Ligue 1 that year, but it only made people think that Ligue 1 was a weak chicken league. Although the Portuguese Super League is obviously only supported by three or four giant teams, and the middle and lower teams are not even able to pay their salaries, because the previous teams can play very well in European competitions, they are considered to be a better league. Manchester City always drops the chain in the Champions League, and even the Premier League is looked down upon, which naturally makes the British media very dissatisfied.

Think about the glory of English football in Europe in the past few years, at that time, the strength of the Champions League semi-finals was enough for the world to discuss how to curb the strength of Premier League football, how strong it was, but in recent years, since the rise of Manchester City, the Premier League has not been as virtuous as a year, and it is also extremely anxious to watch. Manchester City has not improved year after year, Arsenal is in the Champions League again, and is always used to clocking out of the round of 16, and looking at the current standings of the Premier League, think about next year's Champions League, the Premier League will lose such a familiar face as Manchester United, and the British media naturally can't be calm.

They used to be the first league, but now, they are not satisfied with the past, the 1112 season, and the 1213 season of the two seasons, the Bundesliga's points in the European competition are higher than the Premier League, and if the Premier League still finds this way to play, then I am afraid that after a few seasons, the Premier League will even be surpassed by the Bundesliga, and even the second league will not be done.

How can such a situation not make people depressed

For the British media, it will undoubtedly be a very depressing thing to lose to Germany in football and be surpassed by Germany in European points. And the depression of the British can make the Germans happy many times, and this time is no exception. On the British side, while all the voices were cursing at Manchester City for the Wolfsburg victory, the German media praised Wolfsburg at this time.

"Wolfsburg's victory against Manchester City is yet another proof that the Bundesliga team is stronger than the squad itself when it comes to facing foreign opponents. There has always been a disdain for Bundesliga players in football, and Wolfsburg proved that wrong with their victory. ”

For the victory of Wolfsburg, the German media can be said to be proud. While it may not seem like something to be particularly proud of to say that the defending Bundesliga champions were able to beat a local team like Manchester City, anyone who looks at the rosters and salaries of the two teams will know how big the gap between them is. In the face of such an opponent, Wolfsburg did not lose, but won a double victory, which also made the German media extremely proud.

They rejoiced at the victory at Wolfsburg and also at the moment of honour in the Bundesliga.

In the past few years, the Bundesliga has always played well in Europe, but it has not been very good in terms of wind reviews. From the original fourth league, they have surpassed Serie A to become the third league after hard work, but such a victory is considered by many fans to be the result of the Europa League. Their team has been in the top four in the Champions League for many years and has reached the final four times in five years, but many believe that this is just a victory for Bayern. For a long time, compared with the Premier League, La Liga and other leagues, the Bundesliga has been questioned that the league level is generally low, the competition is not fierce enough, and Bayern is a dominant stage, and the victory of Wolfsburg obviously makes people see how the overall strength of the Bundesliga is.

With their victory, they proved that the Bundesliga is not just Bayern. Their other teams are also strong enough to beat the giants, and although Wolfsburg is still only in the quarter-finals this time, this time the quarter-finals are significantly more proud than last year. Defeating a Portuguese Super League giant, and defeating a Premier League tycoon, the honor it brings is not the same after all. The Bundesliga has not only Bayern, Dortmund, but also Wolfsburg, which can beat Manchester City, which is also something to be proud of.

After all, everyone wants their league to be stronger, and having multiple teams in a league that do well in the Champions League is a testament to the excellence of the league. In the past few years, Wolfsburg's Bayern, Dortmund, Schalke have all proved their strength, and now Wolfsburg has also had the experience of defeating giants, who would dare to say that they are not Haoqiang, there are more than three such teams, which can also prove that the strength of the Bundesliga is extraordinary.

Points, honors, victories, these things make the German media full of pride for a while. Even after the victory at Wolfsburg, the media was full of blessings for them.

"In the past few years, the Bundesliga teams have all shown good strength in the Champions League, the championship, the final, the semi-finals, the Bundesliga has won enough honors. Borussia Dortmund once successfully reached the Champions League final after winning the league title. And this time, Wolfsburg, as the defending champions of the league, will be able to repeat the path they have taken. ”

Obviously, the German media is full of expectations for Wolfsburg at this time, and some people have even begun to look forward to how they can enter the final and compete for the Champions League. This victory can be said to have made all the media in Germany extremely excited.

However, in the midst of the excitement, there are still some small regrets in the Bundesliga at this time. Although Wolfsburg was very satisfied with the victory over Manchester City in this round, there was another thing that also made them depressed: Dortmund, another team in the Bundesliga, lost to Manchester United in the game, which was also something that no one expected. To be continued.
