Another battle of contradictions, the leader Manchester City and the traditional giants Liverpool; Both teams look set to have a chance to compete for the league title, but Manchester City tops the Premier League firepower charts while Liverpool have the best defence in the Premier League.

Qin Lang didn't dare to be careless, because he knew that the opponent's strength was strong, and he knew that Manchester City had the most ferocious firepower in the league.

Just look at the line-up for the Blue Moon, goalkeeper Joe Hart; At the back, there are Richards, Chloe Toure, Kompany and Klich; The midfield duo of Yaya Toure and Barry partnering David Silva and James Milner form the midfield pairing; Dzeko and Sergio Aguero up front.

Although Balotelli continued to be sidelined due to injury, Nasri did not appear in the starting line-up; However, the stars are still wanton, and a starting lineup like Blue Moon actually can't see any injuries or anything like that.

Liverpool, on the other hand, looked to have suffered a lot of losses, with Steven Gerrard and his old partner Carragher continuing to sit on the bench; Bellamy looks in good shape, but he's still there. And Suarez is officially in charge of the ball, and it is impossible to bring some help to the team.

It's normal that Liverpool's current starting lineup and overall strength can't be compared with Manchester City, and there is nothing to complain about, just accept it calmly. Besides, no one knows what will happen until the last minute of a football match; The first leg between the two teams ended in a draw, and even the Reds looked like they had a slight advantage.

So what will happen in this game, that's really something that no one can say; Although Liverpool's squad has been affected by some unexpected factors, and although Liverpool's injury form also means that the team is not in the best condition, it can still be worked on.

The atmosphere at the Etihad Stadium was hot as Blue Moon fans wanted to see their team continue to lead the table with a win over Liverpool and because they had good news ahead of this game.

Before the match with Liverpool, Manchester City Club officially revealed the news that Sun Jihai would be invited to watch the game in advance; Although Sun Jihai was not an absolute star or led the team to great results during his time at Manchester City, with six years and 130 league games, the former Manchester City jack-of-all-trades is still a bit popular at the Etihad Stadium.

Qin Lang didn't care much about these, or even if he did, it wouldn't be now; Maybe I'll talk to Sun Jihai after the game, but the thing at hand is naturally to play a good game.

Sun Jihai was one of the representatives of the highest level of Chinese players in the past, and now Qin Lang is a well-deserved top star.

Liverpool are looking forward to this game, and the defensive counter-attack may be a little more suitable for Liverpool; It's definitely not a good option to rush into action, and if you want to play against the attack, you may fall into the rhythm of Manchester City.

So at the beginning of the game, neither team immediately launched a fast-paced offensive battle; Both teams are trying to hold their ground, trying to take the initiative more, and the game is 90 minutes, so don't rush it.

Boos rang out at the Etihad Stadium as soon as the game began, and the Blue Moon fans looked unhappy with Liverpool's passivity.

Qin Lang didn't care about these boos at all, he was just helping his teammates fall to their feet; It can also be said that now I basically see Qin Lang's frequent receiving and passing, and the current game is unfolding in Liverpool's backfield, and Liverpool's possession of the ball is really high.

However, this does not mean that Manchester City occupies the initiative on the field, nor does it mean that Liverpool is now in control of this rhythm. Because it's some pointless backfield kicks, other teams are kicking when the big picture is set, Liverpool are not because they will kick the foot at the start of the game.

"Steady, pull away a little!"

Qin Lang glanced at Aguero, who was rushing up, and kicked the ball to the side with a fierce kick; Qin Lang felt that such a reversal of the foot was very meaningful, consuming the physical energy of some Manchester City players, who let Manchester City, which was fighting on multiple fronts, have no time to rest in three days and two games.

"Pull away a little, Daniel, and watch your position!"

gestured a little, signaling Ag not to conflict with his teammates; Qin Lang is now using the backfield to help his teammates settle down, in fact, he is also mobilizing Manchester City's players.

Qin Lang, who laughed gloomily, felt that the effect was still good, because the players of Blue Moon obviously didn't expect that the Red Army, which was once dominant, would be so shameless now, which was a passive slack at the beginning of the game. The tactical initiative seemed to be in the hands of the Reds, as City's tactics didn't work at all, and they didn't expect Liverpool to play such a shameless play.

The boos were loud, and the scolding was indeed a lot; It didn't matter, because Qin Lang knew that such a tactic seemed to be effective again.

Manchester City's players began to rush up, and they had no idea that Liverpool's repeated kicks were actually to create some killings.

Seeing that Manchester City's players were starting to lose their positions a little, Qin Lang laughed.

As Dzeko approached Qin Lang at high speed, the rest of City's players were also taking care of the other Liverpool players in front of the penalty area. According to some of the previous 'rules', Qin Lang must have sent the ball to the feet of his defenders, and now he can't give the Liverpool defenders a chance to be empty, and the players in the blue moon want to force the ball in the front court to counterattack directly.

Not this time, not once with any short passes or anything like that; He stopped the ball a little and looked at Dzeko, who was galloping. Qin Lang didn't plan to catch up with his old acquaintances in the Bundesliga, he directly passed the ball directly to the midfield.

Ten minutes later, I finally waited for a good opportunity; Liverpool midfielder Charlie Adam is relatively empty, and more importantly, Manchester City's defensive space at the back is also relatively large.

This is the opportunity, so now the Manchester City fans don't have time to boo; They saw Charlie Adam scurrying away with the ball, and although Barry was closing in quickly, he was likely to not be able to catch up for a short period of time.

"Tang Ning, this is your chance!"

Everyone's eyes were almost attracted by Charlie Adam with the ball, but Qin Lang noticed Tang Ning's smart follow-up at this time. That guy is a thief, and maybe he could get a chance to put Joe Hart to the test.

Qin Lang is looking forward to it, he feels that now Charlie Adam needs to learn to be smart now, he is about to hit Manchester City's steel back line; However, if Adam notices that Downing on the weak side has been plugged in, this is a good passing option.

"Single knife, single knife!"

Adam passed the ball, and although Manchester City defender Richards was a little scrambling to fill in the position, he was not fast enough to catch up with Downing, and he was now only able to barely guarantee that he would not be completely thrown off by Downing.

Downing gets his chance, but he also needs to face Joe Hart, who is attacking, and he also needs to find a way to get rid of Richards' harassment, which is definitely not an easy matter. It's just that it's not too difficult.

Qin Lang held his head, he looked even more disappointed than Tang Ning; What a good opportunity this is, but it's a pity that Comrade Tang Ling really forgot the feeling of scoring goals. His volley was directly blocked by Joe Hart, and he missed a great opportunity to help Liverpool break the deadlock, what a great opportunity!

It's really disappointing, Tang Ling really plans to carry forward this nickname; He has zero assists and goals so far this season, and if he can score in a peak duel like Manchester City, then he may be able to get rid of the title of parallel goods for the time being. It's just that now it looks like he's more watery than Carol, a bastard who can keep missing opportunities.

'What a great chance, they are out of position at the back and the defenders are not well prepared. The previous breakthrough and passing were all good, but it was a pity that Downing's shot ruined everything. What is this, haven't I been scolded for so long just to help the team fight back, this guy Downing ruined everything! ”

Sadly, what a great opportunity was wasted, and what seemed like a great chance to score was squandered by a slightly amateur shot. Qin Lang's sadness is justified, because even if the team will continue to fall now, Manchester City's players will still be more or less prepared.

In addition, it will be very stressful to continue this kind of inversion; The Manchester City players will slowly press on and they will cut some lines and connections. Qin Lang will have pressure if he wants to pass the ball, and he also needs to face the threat of encountering the opponent's counterattack immediately if he misses the pass.

Some tactics may only be effective for a certain period of time, and it is the least advisable choice to hold on to a tactic that seems more extreme and stick to it for a match. It is obvious that Qin Lang is a smart person, and it is impossible for head coach Dalglish to allow the team to be such a 'passive sabotage' all the time.

The game looks like it is going to return to its normal rhythm, and Qin Lang has neither resistance nor objection to this matter; He knows that the next game process may be the most normal rhythm, as for the little tricks played now, to be honest, they are just some small tricks that can't be put on the table, this is definitely not a conventional tactic, not particularly reliable.

Sure enough, something happened.

Kuyt made a mistake in holding the ball in the backfield, and he couldn't pass the ball out at the first time when he was surrounded and suppressed, so the ball was broken; David Silva passes the ball and Aguero shoots hard from the left in front of the box.

Qin Lang stretched out his hand to block, and then grabbed the ball before Dzeko, who wanted to make up shots, to clear the ball; But what happened also means that the tactics of falling at the back need to be abandoned for the time being, as City's players have found some tricks and they have now found a strategy to deal with Liverpool's sluggishness.

It's nothing, although he took a high-quality shot from the opponent, Qin Lang would not think that the sky was about to fall; It's just a change of tactics, there's nothing to fuss about! (To be continued.) )
