When the football flew into the goal, many people were stunned, they were surprised not by the goal, but by how smoothly and naturally it would be, and if you want to match the game, it will be as if the goal is a matter of course, which gives people a weird feeling, you know, Manchester City and Chelsea are playing against each other.

That's the same as ...... Chelsea!!

Even Morris didn't expect to kick the ball in, just now he found a good opportunity and just subconsciously went to shoot, and now he feels as weird as everyone else - even if the coach is a very good person, but this is a game against Chelsea!

It's Chelsea, not any other team, so how can it feel so natural to score a goal!?

Then Morris reacted and immediately cheered wildly.

Scoring goals is not so new to him now, but against Chelsea, the meaning is definitely different.

It was the first goal in the Premier League's top matchup! It is likely to decide the outcome of both teams!

Before the game, there were a lot of media analysis of the game, thinking that it was not easy for Manchester City to beat Chelsea at home, let alone winning, it was very difficult for Manchester City to score goals, and various football professionals also stood up to analyze what the confrontation between Manchester City's tactics and Chelsea's tactics would look like, analyze the advantages of Chelsea's defense, etc., and then analyze and analyze the lineups of the two teams, in summary, Chelsea's winning rate is much greater.

But now Manchester City are ahead of Chelsea in the game, and the goal just now is very easy, in the first half Manchester City was also in the absolute upper hand of the situation, no one thought that the game would be like this, they were surprised by Manchester City's performance, and now there is a goal, which shows that what they are seeing is true, Manchester City's situation as a whole has formed a suppression of Chelsea.

But this ...... How is that possible? That's what makes people wonder what!

……

On the pitch, the Manchester City players began to celebrate.

When Morris put the ball into the back of the net, all the City players were excited, and they were closer to the front. Rushing straight towards Morris, the others laughed and watched each other, some hugging each other and cheering for the goal.

Wan Sheng was also excited, and he hugged Pierce for the first time.

He put a lot of effort and work into this game, just modifying the 'killing' tactics to make it fit the team, making it more defensive, more controllable, the work was very heavy, and he had to go to the training ground himself. Look at how the team is adapting to the tactical changes, which he has been doing around Christmas.

Now 1:0 on the field of play is equivalent to the success of his work.

This kind of joy of success is not something that other people who enjoy leading the way can experience.

But the rest of the City people were also excited, and Diamares ran over and kept patting Wan Sheng's back, "Great! Wansheng! We scored! ”

Wan Sheng turned his head and smiled, "How do you feel!?" ”

"That's good! Ha ha! We're ahead of Chelsea! ”

Pierce also came over and looked at the pitch side by side with the two, "That goal was really good. I didn't expect that Spaniard to be so good......" he said, but in fact, he was thinking about the whole goal.

David Silva was one of the biggest contributors, even comparable to Morris, who scored goals. But scoring goals is actually the team's overall suppression and control, and only the opportunity is found, rather than relying on the ability of a single player.

That goal is definitely for the whole team. Remember that the team was in control from the first minute of the game.

This is the tactical role formulated by Wansheng!

Use tactics, routines, and tacit understanding within the team to control the situation. Again relying on the individual players to look for opportunities and score goals, Pierce has generally understood the characteristics of the tactics on the field.

In fact, he has always been not optimistic about Wansheng's transformation of tactics, because he thinks that the team's 'somewhat aggressive' style of play has been very good before, and the technical content is more sufficient, but the technical content of the current tactical play is actually much lower.

The basic things have not changed, it is still running and passing, but before the team scored goals relying on the overall cooperation, the players did not need to play anything individually, as long as they ran to the position according to the routine, and everyone did their own running and passing, then the football will accurately appear in the best position, and the players who inserted it will be able to get opportunities; Now the tactics have changed again, the requirements for passing coordination have reached an extreme, and at the same time, in terms of offense, it is not targeted, in addition, due to the change of tactical 'thinking', many of the routines of the previous training can not be used, which leads to the team in terms of goals, relying on the individual performance of the players.

When such a tactic is fought, it doesn't feel as good as before!

But the previous game, coupled with this goal, shows that the current tactics are by no means worse than before!

Why is this happening?

This is different from what I judged.

Pierce still wondered, the only thing he knew was that this time it was the Chinese who succeeded.

Since I've worked with him, it seems like this every time.

……

Wan Sheng didn't know about Pierce's complicated thinking, in fact, he was happy with the tactical success, but not surprised.

When it came to modifying the 'killing' tactics to make the team more controllable, in the end he felt that his tactics seemed very similar to Barcelona's tactics - they were all about passing, control, and normal play, with the only difference being in attack.

Barcelona's attacking campaign is endless, and they will try to pass forward when they have the chance, while the team's tactical control is more extreme, the attack is more conservative, and it is also more dependent on the individual players.

Which is better, I can't say.

Barcelona is obviously better overall cooperation, but now the 'killing' can also highlight the team's tactics and players' dual advantages, after all, football is not only a team, the individual play of stars is also very important, in the history of football, many stars can break out at critical moments can determine the outcome of a game, if football without them, what is the meaning? Therefore, it is not the best choice to completely stifle the play of these stars, the combination of star play and team tactics is the best.

These are Wansheng's considerations, but the current team's tactics are not perfect, and the tactical corrections are only for this game, and some new routines have not yet been developed, so it makes no sense to talk about these at all.

The most important thing is that the team has scored!

The score became 1:0!

"Maurice. Gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooal！！！！！！！！ ”

"Maurice! Maurice! He scored a very decisive shot! It's the 37th minute of the first half and City are in the lead! You know, their opponents are Chelsea! ”

'It's a long-awaited Premier League title race and there was more media before the game that thought Chelsea would have the advantage, but City showed these people that it wasn't luck that they were top of the league!'

'They completely dominated Chelsea in the first half, they had more than twice as much possession as Chelsea!'

"Maurice's goal just now seemed like a no-brainer, but it was a goal that should be attributed to their Spanish full-back David Silva, who was brilliant at his feet. Leave Paulo Ferreira in opposition powerless......"

A number of cameras are pointing at David Silva, while Paolo Ferreira has been shot while lying down.

Maybe he's been consistent, but who made him and David Silva all the way?

In fact, he is also in good shape, his mental style is stable, his performance is stable, and he is also a world-class defender in terms of strength, but compared with the Spanish demon who broke out, there is still a big gap, if David Silva is very famous, it would be good to say, but now David Silva is not famous. So he can only be questioned that he is not performing well.

……

In a VIP box at Manchester Stadium, Abramovich was watching the game with his wife.

He came silently.

In normal games, he appears in public to let the fans know his support for Chelsea. He also has a lot of faith in Chelsea, so most of the time he will end up smiling and it feels great to be a victor who enjoys the cheers of the fans.

But this one was different because Chelsea's opponents were Manchester City.

The media said Chelsea had a better chance of winning. But Abramovich doesn't believe any of this, because last season the media also said that Chelsea were strong, and that Manchester United were strong and Arsenal were not weak. But the result?

The league title belongs to promoted Derby County!

He didn't expect this to be the result, but then he thought about it, the young man who coached Derby County was indeed very capable, at least he admired him, and he could lead the team to beat Jose Mourinho, which was acceptable.

Then in the summer, Roman Abramovich decided to continue to invest more in the team and buy more stars, so that even that Derby County team would not be an opponent, right?

He was actually very excited to hear that Wan Sheng had left Derby County, but Mourinho had done a good job at Chelsea, and he had no reason to let the Portuguese go, so he could only observe for another season.

Later he heard that Wan Sheng had gone to Manchester City.

In Abramovich's mind, Wan Sheng has always been a huge threat, and those media have said 'Manchester City definitely don't have a chance', but they said the same last season? And then that Chinese performed miracles! He can do miracles once, why can't he do it a second time?

Abramovich couldn't accept that, he didn't like to be fooled by the media, so he got Chelsea to buy Wright-Phillips – at all costs!

As long as Wright-Phillips can be bought, Manchester City will hardly have a star, right? Then it will be time to see how that Chinese poses a threat to Chelsea!

That's what Abramovich thinks.

Mourinho actually didn't appreciate Wright-Phillips' to the extent of '26 million pounds', if it was only about 15 million, it could be considered, but the owner is willing to pay a lot of money for the player he fancies, and he has no reason to refuse.

So the '£26 million' Mr Phillips came out, although he didn't even make a few substitute appearances after arriving at Chelsea, but his value and salary are among the highest in the team.

But what Abramovich didn't expect was that Manchester City was no longer a star, and Mourinho actually couldn't compete with that Chinese, to say that Chelsea's results were definitely a gorgeous mess, but the Manchester City led by the Chinese had even more gorgeous results.

After Christmas, Chelsea were unable to finish first in the league and were held by Manchester City by one point.

He can't blame Mourinho, because Chelsea's results are really good, and at the same time he doesn't have 100% hope for the game, although he told Mourinho before the game that he 'must win', but can this Portuguese fight the Chinese young man who is good at creating miracles?

"Maybe we should take him to Stamford Bridge!"

Thinking of this, Abramovich felt relieved, as long as he can dig this Chinese to Chelsea, when Chelsea's strength is combined with the ability of this Chinese, which team in the world will be an opponent?

Jose Mourinho ...... though. Abramovich looked at the Chelsea dugout and hesitated.

……

Mourinho didn't know that his job had just been shaken, and he was watching the game with a gloomy face.

The situation on the playing field, he saw it perfectly.

From the beginning of discovering the situation to the present, he stood on the sidelines and did not move, but he still did not think of a coping strategy, but the opponent found an opportunity to score first.

Before the game, he said that he would win, isn't this a naked slap in the face?

A goal may not be a big deal, even if it's a draw, Chelsea can accept it, but what he can't accept is that the team is completely suppressed and his players are not mentally prepared for it.

He is more worried about the situation affecting the mentality of the team!

If the situation is unfavorable, it will affect the mentality, the mentality will affect the state, and when the whole team does not play well, the opponent will have more chances, if Manchester City scores another goal, will Chelsea still have a chance?

He has a clear answer to this - NO!

But what now? Obviously, Manchester City on the field played quite well, played more tactically, passed more, and had a very strong ability to control the pace of the game, unless the team attacked, there would be no chance at all, but now it is definitely a very impulsive choice to let the team attack temporarily, and the team will be even more disadvantaged.

This is a contradiction.

Jose Mourinho felt like the game was out of control and he hated it because he could only sit here sullenly and watch the game unfold, at least until the end of the first half.

……

Manchester Stadium has been plunged into a sea of cheers.

After the goal, Manchester City fans finally came to terms with the fact that 'the team completely suppressed Chelsea'.

In fact, many fans are still at a loss for the game, they can't believe that their team can actually suppress Chelsea? This is completely different from what the media said before the game.

When it happens, they just think it's a 'momentary performance', but with this goal, the doubts disappear, they accept the reality as a matter of course, and then the joy comes even more violently, not just for one goal, but for the performance of the whole team.

There are also many fans who have started to shout the names of the scorers, some are shouting 'Morris', and more fans are shouting 'David Silva', obviously the handsome, young David Silva is more popular than the average-looking Morris.

This further confirms the fact that 'professional football also depends on the face'.

Of course, perhaps Morris didn't care about that, he hugged David Silva tightly and thanked him, "Well done, David!" Just like that, we can still score! ”

David Silva doesn't have a 'star fan', and he is still very happy with Morris's praise, because he can't compare with Morris in terms of fame, qualifications, and strength.

Now he's just a newcomer to the Premier League.

He needs more and better performances.

He also silently cheered himself, "I will definitely do a good job!" (To be continued......)
