Chapter 377: Victory over Leon

With Belbart's words, the big screen pointed to the Lyon coach's box, and saw head coach Alain Perrin standing on the sidelines, looking at the game with a frown and a very serious expression.

"Perrin may be thinking about how to adjust." The on-site commentator Belbart laughed, "But it is probably difficult for him to think of a way, Manchester City is already 2-0 up, and Lyon is already in an extremely unfavorable situation......"

'It was interesting that Perrin had vowed before the game that he and all the Lyon players had confidence in the game. It is said that many French media also have the same opinion on the game, I don't know when, Manchester City has become a team that will be easily defeated by opponents at home, but now, do they still think so? ”

Belbart's slightly sarcastic commenter.

In his constant commentary and commentary, the game passed little by little, and the first half ended like this.

Manchester City went into the break with a two-goal advantage.

Every Manchester City player was relaxed when they came off the pitch, and Torres was the happiest of them, with two goals in the first half, both scored by Torres.

When he played for Atletico Madrid, Torres was also the best in the team, often scoring goals in games, but Atletico Madrid's results were not good, and in recent seasons, they have not been able to participate in the Champions League, so this game is Manchester City's first Champions League game this season, and in fact, Torres's first Champions League game.

The first time I played in the Champions League, I was able to score two goals in the first half, which was a really good performance.

Every Manchester City team-mate was 'congratulating' Torres, who was very excited as he enjoyed the praise and blessings of his teammates.

After coming to Manchester City, especially after a few rounds of the league, Torres still has a lot of pressure, mainly because Darren Bent is too good to score more goals than him, as a 40 million euro star. Torres is already a star player in the first line, and the star player in the first line is very popular, but at the same time there is a lot of pressure on him, and if he doesn't perform well, or even say that he just shows the level of an average player, it will make the fans and the media unhappy.

So far, Torres has performed well, but it is still not as good as Darren Bent, and it is not too good, so there have been some comments about 'parallel imports' in the British media.

After this scene. I guess those people can shut up!

A Champions League, against Lyon, two goals in the half, this efficiency is enough to satisfy everyone!

――――

In contrast to the optimism of the Manchester City team, there is a gloomy atmosphere throughout Lyon.

Manager Alan Perrin returned to the dressing room with an ugly look on his face, a Champions League defeat at the top of the Premier League was nothing, and the point is, it was a defeat that made him lose his prestige in the team.

In the summer. Alan Perrin has just taken over Lyon, many players in the team are not familiar with him, and he himself has no experience in coaching big clubs, that is. The players were not convinced by his ability.

Although Lyon have started the league well, drawing just one of their four games and winning all of them, most of the players believe that. That has nothing to do with Perran, the new manager, who is already very strong. The tactics are also very complete, even without the coach's command, under the leadership of captain Juninho, they can still play very well.

The Champions League is where Alain Perrin proves himself.

The result was such a 'confident' game with Manchester City, with two goals down in the first half, and there was no hope of equalising the score.

The point is, Perrin also said something like 'must win' before the game.

He thinks so, and the result is diametrically opposed to what he thinks. So, what will the players in the dressing room think? If he loses the game, how many players will believe in him and respect his managerial majesty after the game is over?

Perrin didn't know the bottom of her heart.

Not only is the majesty of the team lost, but the French media and fans will also be disappointed in him, and he will definitely face considerable pressure after the game.

There was still half time to go, and he still had time for the players, the media, the fans to change their minds, but the key was here, and after a half, he felt very weak about the game.

Is that kind of Manchester City really something that Lyon can beat?

He lost his confidence and didn't know how to adjust to make the team play better.

It's a terrible feeling!

Perhaps, normally speaking, it is acceptable for Lyon to lose away to Manchester City, after all, the latter is the Premier League champion, but it should not be that he did not keep a low profile before the game, but declared 'confidence' and 'must win' in a high-profile manner.

In addition, the process of the game is also important.

Judging from the process, Lyon really has no way to face Manchester City, the defense can't hold on, the offense can't be pressed at all, and the situation is completely at a disadvantage.

This made Perrin feel powerless, because he knew that the next time he returned to the Stadium, the game would probably be the same.

In the midst of weakness and wry smiles, Perrin could only pretend to be serious and say some words of encouragement to the players, which is necessary to do as a manager, but it is not known how much effect it can have.

――――

Lyon's performance in the second half was no longer as good as in the first half.

This may have something to do with Perrin not making timely adjustments, or maybe it was also related to Lyon's mentality of being two goals behind and desperate to catch up with the score, in short, Manchester City scored the third goal in 12 minutes.

After scoring the third goal, the sky over Manchester Stadium was always the singing of Manchester City fans.

This is Manchester City's first Champions League game of the new season, the opponent is still the strongest Lyon in this group, no one expected Manchester City to perform so well, 60 minutes, 3:0, this score is like saying, "Lyon is not Manchester City's opponent at all".

Seeing this scoreline, Manchester City fans also have more confidence in the team and look forward to the whole season.

In the cheers of the fans, Manchester City scored the fourth goal at the end of the game, and at this time Lyon didn't even 'fight back', because they knew that the game would definitely lose, and the opponent was like this, Manchester City also deliberately delayed time, but in the last time some players still wanted to perform, so there was the last goal.

The player who scored the goal - Mesut Ozil.

The German kid scored his first goal of the new season, again in the Champions League.

The fourth goal doesn't mean much, but in any case, it's a Champions League goal, and it's very important for Mesut Ozil.

It was also the final goal of the game.

When the referee blew the final whistle, the Manchester stadium was filled with singing and cheering, with almost all the City fans dancing in celebration.

"It's game over! Manchester City won their first Champions League win of the season! 4:0, they won without any suspense! ”

"Seeing this score, many people may think that Manchester City's opponent is a small club, but as a seven-time Ligue 1 champion, Lyon is by no means a weak team, they are regulars in the Champions League, and often reach the Champions League round of 16, or even the quarterfinals, but they lost to Manchester City, the whole game, they seem to have ......no power to fight back at all."

"This is City's first Champions League game of the season and they have delivered a perfect answer! Manchester City used this 4:0 to show everyone that they are strong contenders for the Champions League title! ”

'If Manchester City can stick with their performance today, we believe they will go one step further in the Champions League......

“…………”

Amid the praise of Manchester City from various media, the game at Manchester Stadium came to an end.

――――

After the match against Lyon, the British media were full of praise for Manchester City.

The support of the British media for the clubs can almost be described as 'regional' and fragmented.

The London media supported the London team and was hostile to the giants of the North; The Manchester media are supportive of the Manchester side and are very hostile to the London side.

Even within the Manchester region, there are several factions, and the three representative factions are: Manchester United, Manchester City and Bolton.

Because of history, Manchester United, Manchester City and Bolton have the best results, and all three teams have a lot of supporters, among which Manchester United is the most, but in terms of facing the 'London team', Manchester City will also put aside their preconceptions and unanimously support the teams in their own region.

For example, when Manchester City and Chelsea play, Manchester United media will also be slightly biased towards Manchester City, although Manchester City is Manchester United's sworn enemy, but it is also a Manchester team.

Therefore, although Wan Sheng's 'popularity' in the British media is not very good, and the media that resist him will always be more than support him, but Manchester City is always a British team, and when Manchester City participates in the Champions League, the British media unanimously supports it.

Now Manchester City is playing beautifully, with a strong 4-0 victory over French giants Lyon, so the British media has written about it.

On the contrary, the French press wailed.

They didn't expect that Lyon, as a representative team of French football recently, would lose so badly in Manchester!

Previously, many French media also believed that the prospects of the game were very optimistic, but they didn't expect it to be like this, and where is the result optimistic, it is simply pessimistic to the extreme.

At the same time, football media around the world that follow the Champions League have also reported on the game.

Because of the result of the game, this game has also become the most watched in the first round of the Champions League, and it is very important that Lyon, as the champion of Ligue 1, actually lost 4:0, and the whole performance was not Manchester City's opponent at all.

So more people started to talk about Manchester City, and more people started to study Manchester City's personnel and style of play.

The same is true for the Chinese media.

However, the core content of their report has little to do with the game, but is discussing Wansheng himself, which has also been the hottest focus of domestic football in recent times.

There were many people in China who were criticizing Wansheng before, and there were also many people who were expressing their support.

With Manchester City's big victory, Wansheng once again showed amazing coaching ability, so the remarks in support of Wansheng increased, and the remarks criticizing Wansheng were suppressed for a while.

The domestic public opinion situation is developing in a favorable direction for Wansheng.

But at this time, a media called "Football Weekly" suddenly published an interview report.

This interview report on Wansheng himself attracted much attention as soon as it was published, and major media reprinted it one after another, and it became the hottest and most controversial topic in China for a while. (To be continued.) )
