Manchester City's attack on the right flank has been scrapped from the start!

Richards was suppressed by Qin Xiong and did not dare to step forward to participate in the assist.

Adam Johnson didn't get much support on the right side of the frontcourt, Dzeko was the center, and Yaya Toure waited for Adam Johnson's support in the middle of the frontcourt.

But after Gerrard defended Adam Johnson's pass line to the middle, Adam Johnson either played the ball back to central midfield or could only break through on his own.

With Alonso and Baines combined to mark the defence, Johnson's individual breakthrough was unsuccessful for two consecutive times.

When he got the ball up front and could only get up and cross on the spot, the quality of the cross was terrible, although Dzeko had a height advantage over Thiago Silva, but when competing for key positions, Thiago Silva showed the quality of a world-class central defender, making it difficult for Dzeko to successfully grab points in the middle.

City have been forced to concentrate their main attacking lines on the left and in the centre.

In the 16th minute, David Silva controlled the ball on the left side of the field, he was still relatively stable in possession, Kuyt came back from the back to press, Silva dribbled the ball down the middle, and then passed the ball to Yaya Toure before Thiott could move.

The latter faced back and forth pressure from Steven Gerrard and Marcos Alonso, and Yaya Toure strode diagonally towards the ball, deliberately avoiding Thiago Silva's area and instead dangling a shot in front of Skrtel's area to end the attack with a long-range shot.

Reyna made a lateral save to hold the ball in his arms.

Liverpool's attack continued to be centred on the left and centre.

In the 20th minute of the game, Qin Xiong went down the ball on the left side.

In the face of Richards' defense, Qin Xiong quickly completed a two-one-one coordination with the moving Gerrard.

Qin Xiong kicked the ball out at his feet. Then the run went straight between Richards and Kompany.

Gerrard through pass.

When the football rolls to the empty ribs of Manchester City. Kompany ran to block Qin Xiong. What he was afraid of was Qin Xiong's direct shot, but Qin Xiong observed Suarez retreating in the middle of the run.

Qin Xiong gently pushed the ball sideways on the spot.

Kompany was stunned to see the football roll between his legs, and it was too late to tighten his legs!

Passing through gear.

Suarez then struck forward and stabbed the ball on his toes towards the goal before Lescott could make a tackle.

The ball flew straight into the bottom right corner of the goal, and Hart's save was out of reach.

Reds fans in the stands at the new Wembley Stadium burst into cheers!

They don't have a good opinion of Manchester City.

In addition to Manchester City, which also belongs to Manchester, there is also the factor that Manchester City's deep pockets will become Liverpool's title rivals.

"Liverpool were the first to break the deadlock on the field, this time it was Qin Xiong, Gerrard. The cooperation between Suarez and the three of them, Manchester City's backline still can't do anything with Qin Xiong.

Richards not only let Qin Xiong stroll around with his teammates in his own defensive area, but also let Qin Xiong cut into the hinterland of the penalty area, in the danger zone, Qin Xiong calmly crossed through Kompany's crotch, and then Suarez stabbed the goal, Liverpool's attack is still as strong as we remember! ”

Mancini had some headaches on the sidelines, and he didn't know why Adam Johnson, a rising star who had been hailed as England two years ago, hadn't improved at all at Manchester City!

He could only decide that this player couldn't play the big game!

In this warm-up game, he mainly wanted to explore the idea of transforming Manchester City's new tactical system.

By playing against top opponents, you can find your weaknesses so that you can improve gradually.

Manchester City's attacking right flank was scrapped. But the left and centre attacks are gradually finding their senses.

Dzeko acts as a fulcrum up front, and Yaya Toure actively leans to the right in the forward cut. To play the role of Adam Johnson, it is impossible to completely replace, but at least part of it must be shared, otherwise, the entire area on the right side will be abolished, which will make Liverpool defend like a fish in water, after all, the space itself is small.

Flanagan was in a decent performance, after all, David Silva is not a winger who is known for his speed, and if he encounters a winger like Ribery or Cristiano Ronaldo, Flanagan will definitely be blown up, there is no suspense.

In the 28th minute of the game, Liverpool played a delicate combination in front, frequently passing the ball back and forth on the left side, attracting Manchester City's backline to the left.

Qin Xiong suddenly crossed the ball under heavy siege, which caught the Manchester City backline off guard.

Kuyt nods in from behind goal in the box.

He was unmarked, Klich had just joined Manchester City and had not yet integrated into the team's system, and Liverpool's attacking tempo suddenly increased, and he was thrown off after the next step, and there was no chance to interfere with Kuyt.

But Kuyt squandered the opportunity.

The football was pushed directly out of the bottom line by him, and it was about a meter away from the goalpost.

Koeman saw this scene on the sidelines, and his heart was mixed.

I don't know whether to be glad that the club didn't spend a lot of money on renewing Kuyt's contract, or whether to be happy that Kuyt's form has declined as he has aged, especially since he has been playing a sapper role in the past few years and has lost his attacking spirit, and now his performance is starting to be unsatisfactory, or he can't keep up with Liverpool's progress.

Liverpool can't form a trident anymore.

The lack of a top right winger may also be Liverpool's frustration.

Koeman was afraid to upset the balance of the team's attacking and defensive systems.

Gerrard himself has a **** habit of attacking, and if there is a winger who completely occupies the right side, then Gerrard may be suppressed.

Raheem Sterling is still a substitute rather than a mainstay, and Raul is stepping back to the second line as a substitute and rotation.

Coman pondered that Liverpool's main attacking formation this season might have changed from 433 to 4312.

Liverpool's midfield is full of talent and there are plenty of options to choose from, and Koeman should make good use of the resources at his disposal to further exploit the advantages of midfield.

Manchester City played a more tacit cooperation in the 32nd minute of the game.

David Silva and Barry swooped the ball diagonally behind Alonso after a series of short passes down the left flank, and Dzeko, who was ripped out of the box, scrambled the ball across before Thiago Silva could press it down.

Yaya Toure in the right area in front of the diagonal penalty area took the opportunity to lead the ball and did it in one go!

His strong frame withstood Skrtel's press, and then a violent volley blasted the ball into the top left corner of the Liverpool goal!

Reina is powerless!

If there is anything to find fault with in the Liverpool defense, it is obviously that the goalkeeper's level has never reached the world-class, and the full-backs are slightly thin in the penalty area, such as Baines returning to the penalty area to shake Yaya Toure's live push, which is impossible!
