Chapter 158: A Hundred Trials and Failures (Guarantee 2)
Chapter 158: A hundred trials and tried
"Blue Moon" played really fiercely in the middle today, facing the Leeds midfielder led by Shaq, many of Manchester City's stars are still not scared at all, this is the change that Pellegrini has brought to Manchester City.
At the 8th minute, Manchester City attacked the middle again, Bosnian center Dzeko put the ball back at the feet of Aguero, and as soon as the Argentine got the ball, he was squeezed to the ground by a huge force, but Aguero reacted quickly and stabbed the ball to the left front with his left foot, and Dzeko received the ball again with just the right run.
While supporting the body that fell to the ground with his left hand, Aguero also looked at Leeds No. 5, who turned around and chased Dzeko again, with a helpless wry smile: This Shaq ...... What a monster!
In the blink of an eye, Shaq went around in front of Dzeko again, and the Bosnian center forward reluctantly stopped, and passed the ball to the feet of Klich, who assisted on the left.
After seeing this scene, Aguero, Nasri and others admired Shaq even more, a young boy, not only was not defeated under the siege of three or four stars of Manchester City, but he also had a more courageous posture, which is what Shaq, who is known as a "monster" and "pervert", can do it, how can he have the energy to block left and right at this time!?
The 21-year-old has become more mature this season, not only sharper in terms of assists than last season, but also more ferocious in defence, and Leeds United's millions of pounds spent on Croatian right-backs now seem to be worth the money.
"Bang!"
Klich didn't dare to dribble the ball more, and passed the ball into quickly, don't look at the young Ximei in front of him, but he is also a difficult character, if he is really entangled, he may not even have a chance to cross.
"Boom!"
Portuguese Danny had already looked at the middle and the right when he received the ball outside the box on the left. His team-mates have been beaten to death by Leeds United's defenders, and the 'Young Guards' are young but do have the quality of a championship team.
Without any hesitation, Danny fired a shot directly with his left foot and shot from a distance!
With a "dang" sound, the ball finally hit the outside of the left post of the Leeds United goal and bounced off the bottom line......
Ronaldo took a goal kick and didn't go straight to the front. Instead, it was sent to right-back Sime? At the foot of Vrsarrico.
Leeds United's tactical play is done through possession, around Shaq, everyone has to run actively, supplemented by Shaq's strong mobility and large range of movement, the whole team has to run, pass, control, and then create a chance to score, this is the "Young Guard" tactics.
But in this game, Leeds United were suppressed by Manchester City from the beginning of the game, and the game was played until ten minutes. They haven't played their rhythm yet, and it's definitely not going to go on like this.
"Smack...... Syllable...... Smack......"
The ball began to pass at the feet of the Leeds players, but it was only Sime, Red, Clegg? Dawson, Caruzo and several other defenders were in possession, and when Shaq ran back to catch it, Aguero, Dzeko, Nasri and others would immediately go over to intercept it. Parker, Jonny? The two of Hausen sprinted down the left flank, only to have the ball passed by Richards from Jonny? Hausen was snatched at his feet.
"Alas, this game...... It's really hard to fight! ”
Simon? Grayson sighed helplessly. Eric beside him? Blake also nodded approvingly, they now saw Manchester City's tactical intentions clearly. When attacking, Manchester City is to use the advantage of personnel to play hard in the middle, and when defending, it is to let others go, mainly to prevent Shaq, and try to limit Shaq's ability to organize the attack as much as possible.
Obviously saw the opponent's intentions, but Simon? Grayson can't change the team right away, and now Leeds United is not at the end of the mountain. Although Shaq has encountered a lot of difficulties on the field, this kid is like a machine that never tires, he still runs very aggressively when the team defends, and Manchester City's attack in the middle is not smooth, only when Leeds United attack. Shaq was able to play a much smaller role.
And Simon? Grayson still has a concern, he always thinks that Manchester City's main attack in the middle is to let himself transfer people to support Shaq, but once Jonny? After Hausen or Pifkowski on the right side is transferred, Manchester City's two full-backs Klich and Richards may be more unscrupulous assists, and at that time, the attack power of the "Blue Moon" front field will reach a very terrifying level, and it is really hard to say whether Leeds United can block it.
Now...... It's only a matter of delaying it first.
Simon? Grayson himself would not have thought that he would drag it out for 20 minutes, and the situation of Leeds United would be much better!
Shaq quickly regained the feeling of the game after the initial discomfort, and he retreated deeper when defending, so that the connection between him and the back line became closer, ensuring the defensive thickness of Leeds United's middle, Manchester City's central attack could not be played, and when attacking, Shaq also began to consciously improve his running speed, and when he touched the ball, he also passed the ball out with one or two feet as much as possible, and Manchester City was more difficult to intercept Shaq.
With 23 minutes to play, Shaq received a return pass from "The Beast" on the left side of the centre circle, but in the face of Milner's defence, he suddenly made a slippery turn and let Kompany, who was running back behind him.
When Shaq turned around again, although he was facing the defense of the Manchester City captain and Milner, Ben on the left side? Parker rushed to the back of the pack, and Shaq kicked the ball straight to the left.
Leeds United's left-side offensive system, at this time to find an opportunity to play, although the "Leeds Three Musketeers" is the foundation of the left-side offensive system, but in fact, Leeds United's left-side attack still needs the help of the "beast" Tevez, after the Argentine striker's running and strategy are added, this offensive system has become more elusive.
"Smack!"
Root? After Parker ran a few steps with the ball, Kompany also came to support, and Richards was pressed deep Jonny? Hausen was contained, and Nasri's role was reflected in the offensive end, and at this time it could only be supplemented by the Manchester City captain. Keben? Parker shoved the ball straight to Jonny in front of him? At the foot of Hausen.
It's no secret in English football that the Leeds captain has a strong ability to break through, and Richards faces Jonny? Haosen also didn't dare to kick easily, by Jonny? Hausen shook for a moment, and then watched as the ball was lost to Jonny? Hausen gives a pass to Tevez on the inside.
After receiving the ball, the "beast" activated instantly, and rushed directly to the Manchester City team's penalty area with the ball. Otamendi hurriedly followed, ready to block Tevez's shot at any time, but Tevez ran two steps with the ball before suddenly came with a back-heel pass.
"Smack!"
The ball was bumped back to Tevez outside the box on the left, and then everyone saw Jonny? Hausen showed up in the passing lane.
"Danger! Johnny? Hausen! ”
In the Etihad Stadium, Manchester City fans were watching nervously, but fortunately, Richards was very experienced in the game, and he also ran in place, Jonny? Hausen had no chance to shoot from his feet at all.
But. The tacit understanding between the "Three Musketeers of Leeds" really wasn't blown out, Jonny? Hausen couldn't finish the shot, but he could pass the ball, and Shaq in the middle had already followed up.
"Shaq!"
The Leeds captain shouted and sent the ball with his left foot to the left side of the arc of the Manchester City penalty area!
This position has always been Shaq's most threatening position, and Manchester City manager Manuel Pellegrini has also made a fine arrangement for this range before the game. His instructions to Manchester City captain Vincent Kompany and James Milner were in this position, and Shaq had to be stopped once he had the ball. Even if it's a foul.
But at this time, Manchester City's defensive attention is completely overshadowed by the "beast" Tevez, Jonny? Hausen was drawn in the past, with Kompany and Milner both unwittingly running into their own penalty area, and when Shaq got the ball this time, there was no one to defend him.
And most importantly, Shaq moves fast!
"Smack!"
The ball was first stopped in front of him by Shaq with the arch of his right foot. And not directly on the ground, but in the air!
When Shaq's right foot landed, the ball just started to fall from the air, and Shaq's left foot was drawn to the ball at this time!
"Tom!"
Shaq's terrifying ability to kick a high-quality long-range shot with his left and right feet was fully demonstrated in this moment!
Catch the ball, shoot from distance. The two actions were done in one go, and when the ball flew towards the top left corner of the Manchester City goal with a whizzing, spinning, and arcing, the onlookers' eyes were almost out of sight!
Although Joe Hart is the international goal of the England team, although he knows more about Shaq, the little brother of the national team, Joe Hart still failed to react in the face of Shaq's long-range shot this time, even if the ball is fast, but the ball still flew out of the right side of Kompany with an arc, and when Joe Hart's eyes found the ball and wanted to make a save, it was too late......
"Huh!"
The ball smashed into the white net, and a deep hole was accurately captured by the camera!
“GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
After the goal, Shaq raised his fist and roared......
Captain Leeds, Ben? Parker and Tevez all pounced on the first time, and they were all participants in this goal, so there was a sense of honor.
"Simon, the ball is in! The ball is in! We're ahead! ”
Eric? Blake hugged Simon tightly in excitement? Grayson, Leeds coach is also happy to laugh, he is now more confident in leading the team to win the league championship this season, although at the beginning of the season he has publicly shouted the goal of competing for the championship, but he is not as confident as the current moment of whether the team can win the league championship this season, because he found that the "Leeds Three Musketeers" offensive system carefully built is really too powerful, Shaq, Jonny? Hausen, Ben? Parker's three boys are like nuclear weapons of Leeds United, as long as they take it out, they will definitely be able to knock the opponent down, and they will not be happy!
