For this game, the Birmingham side are very serious, they don't want to lose this game, they want to secure their third place in the league, no matter who comes, they will not let it go.

Manchester City came with the confidence to win, and they didn't want to leave in disgrace. And they don't think Birmingham can threaten them either.

Manchester City has many long-established star players in the squad, how can they form a team worse than this promoted polo team? The Manchester City players really didn't take Birmingham City to heart, and they thought they would win the game.

1 November 2009, Birmingham, St Andrews Stadium, overcast!

The weather in Birmingham today is not very good, it is overcast and the sun is not visible, making the whole land a little dark and damp, as if a rain is coming.

However, this still stopped Birmingham fans from watching the game at St Andrews Stadium in front of them, and a large number of Birmingham fans showed up in St Andrews Stadium, holding high flags to cheer for the Birmingham team.

And there are actually a lot of Manchester City fans who came to the away stadium today, after all, Manchester is not far from the Birmingham team, and it is only about an hour and a half by train, which is very close.

Manchester City fans wore their home sky-blue shirts today and came to the St Andrews stadium to cheer on their home side.

Birmingham City fans are wearing the dark blue shirt of the team's home stadium, and St Andrews Stadium has turned into a sea of deep blue, and you will be hard-pressed to find Manchester City fans without paying attention.

Today, the Birmingham team lined up in a 442 formation and the list is as follows:

Goalkeeper: Joe Hart

Back four [from left to right]: David Murphy, Ridgewell, James Collins, Zim Bonda

Four midfielders [from left to right]: Sebastian Larsson, Kevin Boateng, Emerson, Li Qinglong

The visiting Manchester City team also lined up a four-four-two lineup today, and the list is as follows:

Goalkeeper: Given

Back four [left to right]: Bridge, Lescott, Chloe Toure, Michael Richards

Four midfielders [from left to right]: Robinho, Gareth Barry, Ireland, Wright Phillips

Two strikers: Tevez, Adebayor

The referee of the match was Martin Atkinson, who saw the players on both sides take their positions and immediately blew the whistle and the game officially began.

The first to kick off was the visiting Manchester City team, and the Manchester City team launched a fierce attack as soon as they came up, without any tentative meaning, and it can be seen from here that Manchester City did not pay attention to the Birmingham team.

The ball rolled straight to Robinho on the wing, Robinho took the ball, and Birmingham full-back Li Qinglong pounced.

However, the bicycle boy moved very fast under his feet, and his body was very flexible, and he changed direction several times in a row, and then directly broke through Li Qinglong.

Sure enough, Li Qinglong was still very poor in defense, but his running and never giving up spirit added a lot of points to him, and if it weren't for this reason, Li Qinglong would not have been able to appear in the starting list of the Birmingham team.

Seeing Robinho break through himself, Li Qinglong immediately turned around and rushed towards Robinho at high speed. However, Robinho's speed is very fast, and he really has a feeling that he can't catch up, but he still has a good reputation for giving up, continuing to move forward and pursue.

At this time, Birmingham full-back Zim Bonda came up to intercept Robinho and slow down Robinho's advance, which gave Li Qinglong a chance.

Li Qinglong was overjoyed in his heart, and rushed up quickly to rush up and force it.

Seeing Zimbonda appear in front of him, Robinho immediately slowed down, he could feel Li Qinglong behind him chasing back quickly, and he immediately swung his leg sideways and passed the football to the middle.

Zim Bonda was so shocked that he immediately moved laterally to intercept the pass.

At this moment, Robinho's ankle flicked and pushed the ball towards the baseline, and he quickly raced past the sideways movement of Zimbonda and went down to catch the ball.

Zimbonda was startled and immediately turned and chased after Robinho, who didn't want Robinho to cut in.

Robinho chased after the football quickly, he originally meant to cut in, but seeing Zim Bonda's quick reaction, he didn't have a chance to cut inside at all, so he caught up with the football and sent it directly into the Birmingham team's penalty area.

The Birmingham fans were stunned as Carlos Tevez raced forward in the middle of the box and James Collins sped forward to follow Tevez closely.

But the ball flew over the heads of the two men and into the middle, where Adebayo jumped high to head Ridgewell.

The Birmingham fans at the scene immediately erupted in a panicked scream, and the football shot quickly towards the Birmingham team's goal.

Manchester City fans have already raised their hands and cheered. However, the football was saved by Birmingham goalkeeper Joe Hart.

The Birmingham fans immediately gave Joe Hart a round of applause, this guy's appearance is very good, especially the penalty shootout in the last game, which made a lot of Birmingham fans like this little guy.

Birmingham City fans have been calling for Joe Hart to be bought and kept at Birmingham City. Of course, Dongfang Chen also said that the team should buy Joe Hart, and Joe Hart has a bright future.

However, Dongfang Chen knew in his heart that Joe Hart should not be willing to stay in the Birmingham team, and he would have to return to the Manchester City team sooner or later.

Hughes saw Manchester City's goalkeeper Joe Hart save their shot, and he really felt a sense of grievance in his heart, knowing that this would be the case, and when Joe Hart was loaned to Birmingham, Joe Hart should have been written that Joe Hart would not be able to appear in the Birmingham game against Manchester City.

Hughes now really feels like he's shooting himself in the foot, and he regrets it.

Corner, Manchester City got a corner kick opportunity, Ireland directly curled the ball into the Birmingham team penalty area, Adebayo once again showed his air domineering temperament, jumped directly high, header the goal. It's a pity that this time, under Dongfang Chen's interference, the football flew directly into space.

At the beginning of the game, the Manchester City team launched a ferocious attack, they were warning the Birmingham, their Manchester City team is not those other teams, they are very strong, and it is not something that you Birmingham team can intercept, it is better to admit defeat early, it will be good for everyone.

Birmingham City are not going to just throw in the towel, they came for the win today.

Joe Hart directly kicked the goalball, in fact, when facing Manchester City, Joe Hart's mood was still very complicated, and he didn't know how to play against Manchester City.

Fortunately, before the game, Dongfang Chen enlightened Joe Hart, let Joe Hart show Xiàn well, and show Xiàn well in front of the head coach of Manchester City, so that Hughes can remember him, so that next season, Joe Hart will be more secure.

So, Joe Hart took this game very seriously, and he put his heart and soul into it, just to look like Xiàn in front of Hughes.

The football flew directly over the half court and accurately flew to the top of Dongfang Chen's head in the front court, Dongfang Chen immediately jumped up high and shook his head directly to meet the ball.

Kolo Toure behind Dongfang Chen really didn't take Dongfang Chen to heart, he didn't think that this Chinese kid would cause him any trouble, he despised Dongfang Chen a little.

Chloe Toure originally thought that he could suppress Dongfang Chen lightly, so that Dongfang Chen couldn't find the north at all. But who knew that Dongfang Chen's rapid jump, the perverted bounce speed and bounce ability scared Chloe Toure by surprise.

Before Chloe Toure had time to jump, Dongfang Chen had already shook his head in the air and ferried the football out, Chlo Toure was shocked, how could this Chinese kid in front of him be so perverted?

Suddenly, Chloe Toure put away his contempt, although Chloe Toure still doesn't know what this Chinese kid's ability is in other aspects, but this bounce alone is enough to make Chlo Toure pay attention, otherwise it will be him Chlo Toure who will suffer.

Chloe Toure immediately followed Dongfang Chen closely, sticking to Dongfang Chen tightly like a piece of kraft candy, and sticking to Dongfang Chen with a dead face.

As soon as Dongfang Chen landed, he felt the change of Chloe Toure, Dongfang Chen's heart tightened, it seems that the next game must not be easy.

Dongfang Chen rushed forward, carrying Kolo Toure to the death, squeezing Kolo Toure with his strong body, and squeezing Kolo Toure to the side.

Kolo Toure was also unambiguous, gritting his teeth and squeezing Dongfang Chen fiercely, and the two squeezed each other while inserting into the Manchester City team's penalty area.

The football rolled directly to Sturridge's feet, Sturridge did not stick the ball, and directly handed the ball to Sebatisian Larsson, who was inserted on the wing, and he immediately rushed into the Manchester City penalty area like Dongfang Chen to pick up Sebastian Larsson on the wing.

Seeing Sebastian Larsson get the ball, Manchester City's fullback Michael Richards immediately rushed up, Michael Richards' body is very strong, and his strength is very great. Sebastian Larson's small frame can easily collide with Michael Richards.

Seeing Michael Richards rushing up, Sebastian Larsson didn't say a word, and directly waved his leg to the side to take the ball, and with a bang, the football flew up rapidly, with a strong arc, and flew into the Manchester City team's penalty area.

Michael Richards was already rushing out and despite his suffocating leg to intercept the ball, he couldn't do it as the ball flew past his feet and into the City penalty area.

At the front point, Sturridge first pretended to move a step towards the middle, and then immediately changed direction and rushed to the forward point at a rapid pace. Manchester City's centre-back Lescott didn't shake up, but quickly followed Sturridge and rushed to the front post.

In the middle lane, Dongfang Chen carried Kolo Toure to the death, and pushed Kolo Toure to the middle lane, Kolo Toure immediately used his milk strength to squeeze Dongfang Chen backwards, he didn't want Dongfang Chen to rush to the middle lane.

However, at this time, Dongfang Chen suddenly withdrew his strength and rushed towards the back point.

Chloe Toure was shocked, cursed despicable, and then rushed towards the back point as well.

But when he took two steps out he realized that it was too late, the football was about to go over his head, there was no way, Colo Toure just kicked his legs on the ground and took off into the air to top the ball.

Chloe Toure wants to be able to get the ball out of the way.

Unfortunately, however, Chloe Toure rose to the top and the ball flew straight towards the back post.

All the Manchester City fans in the scene changed their faces and were terrified.

"Rise to the top, Kolo Toure is on the top, Dongfang Chen is unmarked, dry land pulls onions, headers hit the goal, Manchester City is finished." Sky Sports commentator Andy Gray roared with excitement.
