When the Community Shield ended, the Premier League kicked off a week later.

Manchester City welcomed Swansea City at home.

As everyone predicted before the game, there was no suspense in this game.

Rafa Benitez continued his start in the Community Shield with no changes.

It can also be seen from this that the starting lineup in the Community Shield is basically the main lineup of Manchester City.

Then Kaka is also a regular player for Manchester City.

It's a sad fact that, just a month ago, when Kaka was at Real Madrid, everyone thought his career was going downhill and he could only sit on the bench at Real Madrid.

Unexpectedly, more than a month later, Kaka ushered in his own spring at Manchester City. He can even be the main force!

Swansea are not a strong opponent, they are promoted horses.

As promoted horses, facing the defending champions in their first Premier League game of the new season is brutal for them.

Although Swansea must have been preparing for Manchester City after the schedule came out, the huge difference in strength between the two sides still made their preparation useless.

In the game, they only lasted seventeen minutes.

Then Swansea's goal was breached by Glory, who took a direct free-kick and blasted Swansea's right-footed lift kick wide.

It is worth mentioning that the person who created such a free-kick opportunity for Glory was Kaka.

It was Kaka who broke through to 33 metres with the ball and was forced to the ground by a Swansea defender, and the referee did not hesitate to award a free-kick to Manchester City.

It was the free-kick that led to Glory opening the scoring and netting his first league goal of the season for both him and Manchester City.

After Glory's goal, City's attacking firepower continued to run wild.

City added another goal just before half-time, this time with David Silva. Manchester City lead Swansea 2-0.

After the break, the two sides changed sides and fought again, and Manchester City did not relax because they had already sealed the win by two goals, on the contrary, they continued to attack without any intention of stopping.

In such a situation, Manchester City scored three more goals in the second half.

Both Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Glory scored twice.

The competition between the two men in terms of goals has been going on since the first round of the league.

However, Kaka, who has attracted everyone's attention, did not score.

He slid another long-range shot into the net, and that was the closest he came to scoring.

Kaka himself was chagrined.

In the end, he couldn't find the back of the net and he was a bit sullen when he was substituted.

But in all fairness, in addition to not scoring goals, Kaka's appearance is actually quite good, he is very the offensive end, running aggressively, breaking through sharply, can he still pass some dangerous passes.

Such a table is fully worthy of applause and cheers.

However, after the game, some media still deliberately found faults, thinking that Kaka's table was very ordinary.

Their reasoning was that Kaka didn't score, and the rest of the table was something that any player of normal caliber should have played.

With Kaka's fame, status, and worth, if you only take out such a table, it can be said that it is not good.

“…… We know that our assessment seems a bit harsh. But we think for a player like Kaka you need to be him, didn't he say to find the best version of himself at Manchester City? Then we should demand him according to the standard of his best. Otherwise, wouldn't his words be empty words? ”

This media is quite eloquent.

And there are people who really believe in such a view.

Some people do think that there should be high standards and strict requirements for a player of Kaka's level.

So after the game, because Kaka didn't score, there was some criticism against him.

※※※

Benitez was initially a little worried that the criticism would affect Kaka.

But when he saw Kaka the next day, after carefully observing Kaka's expression and Kaka's subsequent appearance in training, he was sure that the criticism did not affect his mood and state.

Benitez was overwhelmed.

For Kaka, he has already heard too much criticism in his two seasons at Real Madrid, all sorts of criticisms aimed at him from different angles.

And a lot of these criticisms are reasonable, and that's what makes Kaka feel the most painful. He was not afraid of the bite of a mad dog, which was not lethal to him at all, he was afraid of those justified criticisms.

He knew that what these people said was right, that their criticism was justified, and that it showed that he was really not good enough, but there was nothing he could do to change the situation, so he was even more heartbroken. In two seasons, especially the last, he received a lot of criticism.

In such an environment for a long time, he must learn to adjust his mentality to face these criticisms, otherwise he would have been driven crazy long ago.

Turning to God for refuge is one way, and so is adjusting one's mindset.

So Kaka's heart is very strong now, and the baseless accusations and criticisms of one or two media outlets can't have any effect on him at all.

This criticism is not forceful.

Now Kaka will also think that his two seasons at Real Madrid did not look unnecessary.

There used to be a saying that his move to Real Madrid was a losing choice and a complete waste of time. Nothing good for his career.

At first, Kaka thought so.

But when he arrived at Manchester City, he gradually felt less so.

He was more inclined to believe that this qiē was a deliberate arrangement of God. If it weren't for his setbacks in two seasons at Real Madrid, he might not have had the courage to challenge his fate again. It is precisely because of this experience at Real Madrid that he cherishes his days at Manchester City and has hopeful days.

And the two seasons at Real Madrid also exercised his heart, allowing him to have a stronger heart. With this heart, he is confident that he can cope with all the difficulties and setbacks on the way forward.

There's nothing left to beat him lightly, absolutely not!

That's what Kaka thinks now, and he thanks from the bottom of his heart for those **** nights in his two seasons at Real Madrid.

Now that he is at Manchester City, the painful experiences of the past seem to have turned into brilliant pearls, scattered, waiting for him to weave them into a crown.

City are now unbeaten in 56 league games after winning over Swansea, just two short of the 58-game unbeaten run set by Sacchi's AC Milan.

This matter is the focus of the media in England and even Europe, and there is not so much debate about Kaka's appearance.

AC Milan are definitely not the holders of the longest unbeaten streak in a European football league, but why are they the most famous?

Because when they set this record, the gold content of Serie A was recognized, and the Serie A league at that time was called the "Little World Cup", which was the most glorious period of Serie A, with a lot of superstars in the league, strong teams like clouds, and in that case they were unbeaten in 58 league games, which is very remarkable.

And today's Premier League is also very similar to Serie A back then, there are many strong teams in the league, Manchester City can win the league title, but in the face of so many teams, it can always remain unbeaten, which is the most remarkable.

After this match, Manchester City's official social media posted an image with an old photo of AC Milan from that year, with the text "Tribute to the legend!" ”

Although they are two league games away from tying the record, Manchester City are already warming up for a tie.

But can they really do it?

Manchester City's opponent in the second round of the league is Bolton Wanderers.

The opponent is not too strong, even if it is an away game, everyone feels that with the strength of Manchester City, they can beat Bolton. With this win, Manchester City are unbeaten in 57 league games, just one game away from AC Milan's legendary record.

The historic moment was to be discussed throughout England.

Before the game, the Manchester Evening News had already posted a message on their official social network in advance, and the message was simple, just an Arabic numeral "2". Here's the countdown.

There was a cheering on the Internet, and Manchester City fans seemed to feel that the record was already in the bag.

Under such circumstances, the whole Manchester City team boarded the bus and embarked on the away journey. I1292
