Section 449 Stars
For a team, sometimes, as long as one person is willing to persevere in a difficult situation, it can often infect more players and join the team's efforts. It is also an indisputable fact that the morale of the top stars is often boosted not by words, but by their own actions. Compared with the coach's admonition, sometimes, a player's shot on goal, a goal, can often bring greater confidence to the team, this kind of thing, in football, is not uncommon.
And this time against Wolfsburg, Aguero's zero-degree angle hit the goalpost this time, obviously played such a role. Although his shot on goal did not score, it was a good morale boost for Manchester City. Manchester City's players had some thoughts of giving up for a while after conceding the goal, but with Aguero's efforts, they also adjusted their mood and began to prepare for the game in earnest again.
Manchester City, who adjusted the situation, began to organize and want to attack on the pitch. Their players have shown their quality as soon as their mentality improves. In this regard, Gao Shunyao already had some expectations, and he understood that once the opponent's morale rebounded, it would form a suppression of Wolf Castle, which had been proven in the last game.
However, at this time, the Wolfsburg players on the field obviously did not understand this truth as quickly as Gao Shunyao. Maybe because of the smooth play just now, even if they see Manchester City's momentum rebounding now, the players of Wolfsburg have no intention of recovering the defense for a while. At this moment, with the advantage in hand, they want to have a better collision with their opponents, and their positions are also a little forward, and they still maintain an offensive posture.
They forgot that Manchester City's attack was a good opportunity for Wolfsburg, so Wolfsburg's attack was also a good opportunity for Manchester City. If they were against a Wolfsburg team who were defending with all their might, they might still have a headache about how to score, but Wolfsburg was so careless that they found an opportunity to take advantage of it.
Above the midfield. When Yaya Toure ran across the halfway line with the ball and stopped in the center circle, he was also looking at Gustavo at this time, already standing not far in front of him. Wolfsburg's interception was very hard. He saw it all, but he only smiled at such a hard defense.
Defending is not about passion but about cooperation, and this is a simple truth, if you want to steal the ball with blood. Then the Wolfsburg players are about to suffer.
Yaya Toure, who was standing on the halfway line, suddenly passed the ball with a kick. However, instead of a close touch to the ground towards Finardinho, the ball was kicked towards Nasri.
At this time, Nasri was inserting along the left wing, because Wolfsburg was facing Manchester City's two midfielders with the ball in the middle at this time, so he drove straight into the left flank and did not attract much attention. However, this was ignored by the offensive. Often the most recognizable, Yaya Toure also rushed to the edge of the box when a pass from Yaya Toure penetrated the entire backline and was at his feet.
Manchester City's attack was simple and straightforward. Yaya Toure used just one pass to Nasri and sent the ball straight from the centre circle to the edge of the box on the left flank. The Wolfsburg midfielders, who were waiting in the middle to defend the pressing of Yaya Toure and Finaldinho, were completely deceived by him, and their midfield was completely broken.
It was a goal that allowed Manchester City to find the best chance right away. Wolfsburg considers itself an impregnable defense. It was directly penetrated by a pass from Toure.
This long pass made people realize that as the core player of Manchester City, Yaya Toure's strength should not be underestimated. Wolfsburg took note of Sergio Aguero up front. But it is overlooked that Yaya Toure has always been the heart of Manchester City's midfield.
Wolfsburg somewhat ignored him, but as a star, Yaya Toure's strength has always been first-class, but because Yaya Toure has some problems with playing big names when he plays. His poor results at the heart of Manchester City, combined with his own colour issues, have meant he has been easily overlooked. However, after finding an opportunity, he posed a much greater threat to Wolfsburg than everyone else, and this pass was a testament to his quality.
The football went straight to the backfield, and Wolfsburg's defenses were all broken up. In the face of the opponent's defense that has no time to contract, Nasri on the left side will naturally not have any mercy. He took a sharp step forward with the ball, adjusted his pace, and then on the left flank, he fired a high cross into the box.
He knew that the most important advantage of the opportunity created by Yaya Toure was that he was fast enough and the attack was sudden enough, so he did not choose to cut inside himself, but used a quicker cross. The ball flew straight into the box and landed on Dzeko in the box. Wolfsburg's back line has not had time to shrink, and at this time, Dzeko is facing a tight defense.
And Nasri took advantage of this moment when the defense was not tight enough. The ball he passed didn't land particularly well, and it could even be said that it was quite far from the goal. But with this pass, he can guarantee that Dzeko will be able to catch it. And as long as Dzeko catches the ball, then with his header skills, the ball definitely has a lot of goal in the goal.
Nasri is convinced of this. He knows how capable his teammates are. And the Wolfsburg defenders are also very aware of this, and they are also very aware of Dzeko's ability.
Nardor in the forbidden area was already in full swing at this time. He was a little far away from Dzeko, but he was still between Dzeko and the goal. He knew that Dzeko's header skills were good, and his position was a little far away, and it was unlikely that he would be able to grab the first spot. Therefore, Naldo chose to stop in front of Dzeko and was not prepared to give him a good angle to hit the goal.
Although there were problems in the first link of Wolfsburg's defensive work, this time, Naldo also vowed that he would never go wrong again. Dzeko's header skills are worrying, but the position of the ball is really not very good, and if he tries hard, he may still have an impact on him.
It's just that what he didn't expect was that he was ready to intercept the header in front of the goal, but in the face of the flying football, Dzeko did not fly to the top as he thought, on the contrary, he calmly ran a step in the penalty area, so that when the football fell, he did not catch the ball with a header, but stopped the ball with a chest and unloaded the ball
Dzeko's choice was not to attack at the first time
Looking at the other party's choice, Naldo was also a little surprised. Only then did he remember that in addition to his good header skills, Dzeko on the opposite side was also notoriously good at his feet. In the face of this ball, he could have completely solved the problem without choosing a header, but through the technique of his feet.
The striker with good skills at his feet naturally has this convenient condition, and in the face of such a situation, he can't wait for anything anymore, he must attack decisively and block the opponent's calm breakthrough.
Naldo rushed forward, and at this point, he chose to grab up. However, as soon as he took a step, he saw Dzeko's further movements, which made him immediately annoyed.
The action of unloading the ball on his chest made Naldo completely unexpected, but what he didn't expect was still to come. Dzeko stopped the ball on his chest and unloaded the ball, and without waiting for the ball to hit the ground, he stretched out his right foot and slammed the ball out of the box. In the box, Dzeko didn't use his skills to find a breakthrough, but instead kicked back and passed the ball to Aguero
This game was not the last one, and Manchester City also used a double striker in this game. With Aguero by his side, Dzeko has a lot of other options to do. For example, with this pass now, he put the opportunity in the hands of Aguero, because he believes that Aguero can take the opportunity.
There is no mistake in his trust. Because the situation that Aguero is facing now is really good. When he passed the ball, Naldo's movement had already deprived him of the opportunity to get close in the first place, and in front of Aguero, there was only one defender in front of Kjaer. However, Kjaer's ability is not enough to stop Aguero, and he has just proved that this time, this time, has once again shown people how powerful Aguero is.
The ball was passed to Aguero, who also rushed up for a steal at the first time. But Aguero didn't even make too many moves. He stopped the ball with a kick, made the ball roll forward in a different direction, and kicked the ball behind Kjaer. With just one touch of the ball, he passed Kjaer and on the pitch, he won a single knife again.
Kjaer's defense against him, once again, failed.
And this time, he won't make another mistake. Compared to the last shot, this time his angle is much better, and he is full of confidence when he shoots like this.
Sergio Aguero took a step forward to catch the ball before he fired a shot straight at the far corner. His shot wasn't very strong, but it was a tricky angle, and Benaglio immediately pounced, but it was still a step too slow, and the ball flew into the net before he could intercept it, and City's shot broke the door of Wolfsburg in an instant
Around the stadium, the Wolfsburg fans were dumbfounded for a while. On the court, Aguero raised his fist in the air and cheered for his hard-won honor. Through his efforts, he has proved that Manchester City are not so weak and that this team can still fight Wolfsburg to the end.
They are still their stars with strength, which is the guarantee of strength. To be continued.
