In fact, it was also at halftime, when Klopp asked the team to start attacking in the second half, Mancini told his team at halftime to resist the desire to pour out of the nest at the beginning of the second half, and to defend solidly and play Dortmund's counterattack. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

His theory is the same as Klopp's - a one-goal lead is not a very safe score, then Klopp will definitely let his team score as soon as possible in the second half, so that 1:0 becomes 2:0, at that time is Manchester City's chance, as long as you play Dortmund's counterattack, the chance of scoring will always be played with Dortmund positional battle, right?

So after the start of the second half, Manchester City, including Mancini, up and down, were waiting for Dortmund to attack.

But when the second half really started, it was not what they expected.

In the second half, it was Dortmund who kicked off, and Mancini thought Dortmund would definitely take advantage of the kick-off opportunity to launch a fierce attack on Manchester City's goal, and then it was a great opportunity for Manchester City to play a counter-attack.

As a result, Dortmund's attack ended in a hurry, handing possession to Manchester City, and what about themselves?

Retract!

Off the pitch, Dortmund's assistant coach Gérico Bouis was surprised to see that Dortmund did not take advantage of the kick-off opportunity to put pressure on the Manchester City goal: "Why did you end the attack so quickly......?

Klopmo, who was next to him, rubbed his chin and didn't say a word.

Of course, it doesn't match their arrangement, because it wasn't arranged by their coaching staff at all. He can see that this is Zhou Yi's "self-assertion" again.

It stands to reason that a player on the pitch completely ignores the manager's arrangement and makes his own decisions, which is something that will make the manager very angry. Because it's a challenge to the manager's authority.

But in the matter of Zhou Yi, Klopp would not think so.

This is not the first time that Zhou Yi has adjusted his tactical arrangement in the game, but after each adjustment, the effect is better than he expected.

In that case, what reason do you have to blame him?

There is a famous saying in football that "a win can overshadow everything".

If you can win, you don't have to change anything, winning is everything.

So if Zhou Yi's temporary adjustments on the pitch can bring victory to the team, Klopp is happy to see it.

Moreover, Zhou Yi is a player, he is closer to the first line than Klopp as the head coach, he will know all the information on the field for the first time, he has first-hand information, he will draw the most intuitive judgment, and the decisions he makes are often faster and more accurate than the head coach, which is also normal.

Of course, not every player on the front line makes the right decision, and in the heat of the game, the players don't really have much time to think about the problem and analyze the situation with their brains. They often act only on instinct......

But Zhou Yi is an exception, Klopp believes in the decisions he makes, so he gives him the most power.

will be outside, and the king's order can not be accepted.

Because Manchester City wanted Dortmund to attack, they were more backward in formation.

Dortmund, on the other hand, did not attack, and their formation was docked.

This creates a very strange situation on the field - both sides are in their own half of the court and do not press easily.

After Dortmund ended the attack and returned possession to Manchester City, Manchester City, who held the ball, did not dare to invest too many troops in the attack, for fear that after they pressed up, they would give Dortmund a chance to counterattack.

So Manchester City's number of attacking players was pitiful, and they didn't bother to organize seriously, and after getting to the front, the football fell to the feet of Aguero, and the Argentine saw that there was no support around him, so he simply chose to do it himself.

He dribbled straight to the Borussia Dortmund goal. His lone heroic performance did not score for Manchester City, but easily conceded it under the guard of the Dortmund players.

However, there is no need to rush for Manchester City, as most of their players have not stepped forward at all, so there is no need to worry about Dortmund taking advantage of the space behind them after conceding the goal.

Dortmund, who had the ball, quickly launched an attack and played the football to Manchester City's half. In the face of Manchester City's defence, they didn't seem to have a good solution, and after a series of simple passes, it was finally Lewandowski who fired a long-range shot from outside the box to end Dortmund's attack.

Borussia Dortmund's performance made Manchester City very glad that they did not press too hard, but were on guard against Dortmund's onslaught from the beginning, because they were well prepared to make Dortmund's attack go nowhere.

If you had pressed the attack hard just now, I was afraid that the goal would have been broken by now......

However, in the eyes of the fans, the period after the start of the second half of this game is really ...... It can be described as "ugly".

Both teams did not play very well in attack and showed little patience. Often, there will be no brilliant tactical combinations, and instead they will choose to end the attack with a simple and rough long-range shot or a wide cross.

Who likes to watch such a game?

But both teams played like that.

The commentator also saw that He Ping said that both sides were surprisingly conservative and cautious after the start of the second half. The game during this period was not exciting enough, and it was really unfair to Chinese fans who stayed up late to watch the game......

Marcel Leif thinks Manchester City are not doing well at home, after all, they are the side behind, but why are they not investing enough troops in attack?

Mark Laurence also thinks that Mancini's choice is not "brave" enough, and of course there can be tactical arrangements or something, but as a home team, should we also consider the momentum that we need to have as a home team?

In fact, this kind of game is not only unpopular with the audience, but also uncomfortable for the players to play by themselves.

Especially the players of the home team, Manchester City, who are at their home stadium and have a larger number of supporters, are they worthy of the Manchester City fans who support them on the spot?

Some Manchester City fans in the stands are already booing their frustration with the team playing like this - this is our home stadium, what are you afraid of?

The televised broadcast gave a close-up of Mancini standing on the sidelines, his brow furrowed.

At the beginning of the second half, Mancini felt that his adjustment was correct and effective, because when Dortmund counterattacked, in the face of a dense Manchester City defence, there was obviously no good way to do it, and he could only choose a very low-tech attacking method.

But now he feels that the situation is not what he imagined - Dortmund may not have a good way to attack against Manchester City's defence, but they are not thinking about attacking at all......

Borussia Dortmund was much more shameless than he thought, and he wanted to withstand a 1-0 lead!

It stands to reason that in this case, Manchester City should take the initiative to press, create some threats to Dortmund, and make them understand that they can't stand it.

But Mancini didn't want to do that.

Because he knows who is more patient than he is at this time.

He believes he should be more patient than his opponent.

But after another six minutes, Mancini let out a long sigh – he was sure that if he didn't put pressure on Dortmund, they would dare to just huddle in his own half for the rest of the game. They don't care if it's a good game or not, they're the leaders anyway, and they don't care about the boos in the stands because they're the away team and they don't have the pressure from the stands that the home team has to face.

Will Dortmund feel guilty for not playing well?

Of course not!

This is not a team that pursues "beautiful football" and the result is more important than anything else.

So if they can just win Manchester City, why don't they do it?

But Manchester City can't accept this result, so in the end, it is up to Manchester City to take the initiative to change the game.

So he waved his big hand, and Manchester City attacked.

In fact, Manchester City's players also want to attack, and they have already been on fire when they play aggrieved.

Now after seeing the referee's adjustment, one by one they pounced on Dortmund's goal like a tiger going down the mountain.

Seeing that Manchester City had clearly stepped up their attack, the number of people involved in the attack had increased, and the momentum had also come up, the Manchester City fans in the stands rejoiced and shouted cheers for their team.

For a while, in the cheers of the home fans, Manchester City's offensive was rapid, the whole team was like a rainbow, looking at that posture, it seemed that it could break through Dortmund's goal at any time, and the bright future of equalizing and then reversing to win was not far ahead! )
