No one knows how Rangers boss Smith reacted to Wansheng's remarks, as he didn't say anything about the game since, with some speculating that "Smith knew he couldn't please in the verbal contest, so he simply didn't speak." ”

But no matter what, Smith didn't say anything.

This disappointed the media reporters who wanted to cover the news before the start of the game, so everyone had to wait for the game to start with peace of mind.

The clock passed quickly, and the game came.

Manchester Stadium has become very lively, and the stadium can only be filled in the usual Premier League, but this Manchester City Champions League match, many fans want to come to the scene to support the team, so the tickets are sold out early.

When the two teams warmed up, the audience seats were already occupied by fans, and the atmosphere was hot.

In Manchester City's locker room, Wan Sheng looked solemn and said to everyone seriously, "In terms of tactical play, I have made it very clear, I believe that each of you knows how to play when you get to the game!" ”

"What I want to repeat now is that don't take your opponent lightly! Rangers are not underdogs, and if we don't play well, we might be able to let them get their way! ”

'In the last round at their home stadium, you should have learned a lesson and we have to give 100 per cent in the game.

'The last time we drew against them, it made them think they had what it took to challenge us, it made them feel like they were a strong team, which is good news for us, maybe they will be the one who will be careless, and their manager Smith has even openly defined.

"I think it's funny that a Scottish team dares to provoke us! So...... What to do today. You guys should be clear, right? ”

Looking at the eager eyes in everyone's eyes, Wan Sheng nodded with satisfaction, and then he pointed to the door and roared, "Now! Appearances! ”

"Let's go beat them! Defeat them once and for all! Let them know that we are not to be provoked! ”

――――

Manchester Stadium. Manchester City's clash with Rangers has begun.

Rangers were very tenacious and their players looked very energetic, not at all a little timid by the fact that it was an away game and so many Manchester City fans in attendance.

They played very openly, and they were very tenacious.

Rangers' tenacity was evident in their tackling of Manchester City's attack, which they were prepared for in their last game, and they obviously know that it is difficult to win against Manchester City head-on. So they still chose to defend.

Perhaps they think that it is possible to rely on the team's solid defense, defend the goal and take away a point, or even find an opportunity to score a goal to take away the victory.

However, they were met by a Manchester City team that went all out!

Manchester City, who played against Rangers last time, is definitely not a complete Manchester City, and the squad is incomplete. The morale of the players is incomplete, and that Manchester City team even looks down on Rangers. That's why they have a chance to keep the net at home.

Now it's different.

Every Manchester City player wanted to beat Rangers, they gave their all to play, and Wansheng also sent most of the main players, plus they were at home.

This Manchester City team is arguably the strongest of form!

Rangers boss Smith would never have imagined that his side would only last 15 minutes against such a Manchester City side.

The game was 15 minutes into play. Manchester Stadium has erupted!

"Maurice! Maurice! In the 15th minute of the opening game, Morris broke through the Glasgow Rangers gate with a cold shot in front of the penalty area! ”

'The score became 1-0 and Man City took the lead!'

Morris' shot was so sudden that the Rangers defence couldn't react at all. The ball went straight into the bottom corner.

At the moment of the goal, the camera lens starved Glasgow Rangers coach Smith, only to see him covering his face with his hands, looking unbearable.

"He probably didn't think the team would concede a goal in 15 minutes......" said Berbart gloating with some schadenfreude.

But in reality, Smith was surprised by the goal conceded, but didn't care about a goal.

This goal may decide the victory of the game and make it more difficult for Rangers to play, but this kind of goal is the individual play of the star, which is very helpless, and if there is another chance, Morris may not be able to score the goal.

So Smith still has some hope for the game, and he hopes that the team can perform well and strive to score a goal in the game to tie the score.

Rangers could well settle for a draw.

Smith's thoughts, however, lasted less than 10 minutes.

In the 24th minute of the first half, City took advantage of a succession of chances when Mesut Ozil found space on the left side of the box and fired a direct left-footed volley through Rangers again.

"Ozil—!!"

“2:0！”

"Halfway through the first half, Manchester City were already 2-0 up, and this goal was scored thanks to the entire Manchester City players, who played a brilliant combination near the Glasgow Rangers penalty area and directly broke the Glasgow Rangers defence!"

"Manchester City have already scored two goals, so it will be up to Rangers to play ......"

After seeing the goal, Smith could almost be described as 'being hit in the head', and he was a little dazed and finally realized that the game was not as simple as he thought.

With less than 25 minutes and two goals down, anyone knows that this is simply fatal for Rangers!

Smith began to think about whether he was going to make adjustments.

If the game continues like this, the team's fighting spirit will be lost, and it will definitely not work if it continues.

But before Smith could figure out what to do, City scored again.

Darren Bent!!

Taking advantage of a football opportunity, Darren Bent squeezed past a Rangers defender and slotted the ball into the left side of the net with the back of his head.

3:0！

"In the first 30 minutes, Manchester City scored three goals! Darren Bent, nice header! Manchester City led 3-0, and the game basically lost its suspense. I think now we should be looking at how many goals City can win by exactly how many goals......"

Another commentator said of Smith, "Before the game, Glasgow Rangers boss Smith said that the team is confident that they will give it their all, as if Rangers had beaten Manchester City. But Manchester City taught them a lesson in 30 minutes, as Wan Sheng said, 'We should use the victory to sober them up, not all teams can play well in the Champions League'. ”

"I wonder if Mr. Smith is a little more sober now?"

The live stream immediately switched to the Glasgow Rangers dugout, giving a close-up of manager Smith.

I saw Smith's mouth half-open, his face was a little dark and scary, maybe he didn't want to believe that the team was already 3 goals behind.

No one knew what Smith was thinking, but he certainly wasn't in a good mood. Maybe no one cares about him, because the game is much better than expected.

After Manchester City confirmed the victory of the game with three goals, they played very openly, the players' mentality relaxed, and their play became very casual.

The rest of the day, all the way into the second half, turned into a personal performance by Manchester City's 'stars', with players showing their feet on the pitch one by one.

Manchester City did not play as orderly and organized as before. But the performance of each player also made the scene look much more exciting.

In the wanton play of Manchester City's players. Rangers only felt that the defence was in jeopardy, and some players felt even more depressed when it came to defending.

In the past, Manchester City's offense used cooperation to penetrate the defense, but now they have to face the play of stars one by one, such as Morris. This is not the first time he has relied on the quality of his feet to beat two Rangers defenders in a row.

For him, it was interesting, but for the Rangers defender, it was humiliating.

It's not just Morris who are the stars of Manchester City. David Silva, Mesut Ozil, Martin Petrov, Fernando Torres, etc., these players all have a certain amount of footwork, technical ability, and they are not all on their own, and in many cases they will choose to pass the ball, and as a result, Rangers feel like they can't defend at all.

One-on-one, they are not opponents; Eleven-on-eleven, they're still completely defeated!

Finally, in the 53rd minute of the game, Torres scored another goal for Manchester City.

It's his personal play.

At the edge of the penalty area, Torres received a pass, broke through with the ball directly across the line, and then used a feint to leave space, and he chose to shoot directly.

Football goes straight to the far corner!

The Rangers goalkeeper made a save, but the ball was too fast for him to make a late save.

"Torres' shot was brilliant!"

"Manchester City are already four goals ahead, there will be no suspense at all, Rangers probably didn't expect the game to be so easy, but they should feel like they lost easily......

As if in response to the commentator's words, City began to make substitutions after Torres' goal.

Wan Sheng waved his hand, three up and three down.

Boateng, Sun Jihai and Carlos came on respectively, while Lescott, Ferreira and Morris were replaced.

Seeing Manchester City's substitutions, everyone felt that the game had entered garbage time, because Morris was gone, and his departure would definitely have a big impact on Manchester City's attack.

However, the next game proved that even without Morris, Manchester City were able to play well in attack.

After Morris was gone, the brightest spots on the pitch were Silva and Mesut Ozil, with the duo leading Manchester City continuing to attack Rangers.

In the 74th minute, Manchester City scored another goal.

It was Mesut Ozil who scored again!

"Mesut Ozil scored twice to give Manchester City a 5-0 lead over Rangers!"

"It's incredible, it's unbelievable that Manchester City can lead by five goals, it's a Champions League game and Rangers are definitely not a weak team!"

"Losing by five goals may be a heavy blow to Rangers, and hopefully it won't affect them for the next two games......" Belbart seemed to be comforting Rangers, but in fact, the schadenfreude in his voice could be heard by anyone.

At this time, Rangers coach Smith has buried his head in his chest, he only wants the game to end quickly, but he does not want to endure the torment of his team being 'bombed'.

Losing the game 5-0, he didn't even know how to comfort the players after the game.

Saying that Manchester City are too strong and that it's normal to lose games? But that's not what he said before.

So what do you say to the media after that?

Local Scottish media will almost certainly question his preparation for the game and also question his confidence in what he said before the game.

Smith's mind was in a state of flux.

So he raised his head and glanced at the field, and at that moment he saw that a white light flew into his goal, as if it had hit him directly in the heart.

Manchester city...... Another goal!

"It's Robert Carlos! He stepped forward with the assist and smashed the Rangers goal with his trademark powerful shot! ”

“6:0！ 6:0！ ”

"Before the game, no one dared to imagine that Manchester City could win by six goals!"

"Six balls!"

"Carlos' goal is very personal, the Brazilian defender who is over 34 years old is still efficient!"

Carlos was delighted when he scored.

He didn't start the game, he just came off the bench and in just ten minutes he scored a goal, and it was a Champions League goal, and he was very excited.

When choosing to join Manchester City, Carlos was actually very conflicted, on the one hand, it was the advice of his friend Ronaldo, on the other hand, Wansheng's strong invitation, and then the pressure of life that made him choose to come to Manchester.

However, after becoming a Manchester City player, Carlos knew that it would be difficult for him to play the main team all the time, because the young players in the same position of Manchester City are very strong, and he can only be a player between the main team and the substitute at most.

Carlos is not too happy with this positioning, but it is good to know that Manchester City have a league, a cup and a Champions League, and his playing time is still guaranteed.

After making many appearances for Manchester City, Carlos didn't expect that his defense was not too prominent, but instead scored one goal after another.

It was his fourth goal for City in all competitions.

Three months, a dozen games, four goals, this efficiency is a bit incredible for Carlos.

Back at Real Madrid, he could only score a few goals in a season, but now he has four goals in three months.

Now he finally knows why so many European media have commented that Manchester City is a 'good attacking team', he scored four goals as a fullback, and other teammates in the front field scored more goals, such as the young Ozil, who helped the team score three goals in the Champions League alone, plus the league, the 19-year-old young midfielder, the goal is enough to compare with the main striker of many teams.

While Carlos sighed, he also hoped that he could score a few more goals, as a professional player, he could score more goals in the last few years, and it was also a good memory after retirement, right?

Thinking about this, Carlos felt that coming to Manchester City was really the right choice. (To be continued.) )
