(Thank you for your monthly passes and recommended tickets, and hereby add more!) Go ahead and don't stop...... ）

The game will end at any time.

The referee had already put the whistle in his mouth and looked at his watch frequently.

At this time, Hamburg launched another attack.

If nothing else, this will be the last attack of the game.

Win or lose, the referee will blow the final whistle.

This time, Hamburg's ball path was on the left.

Carvajal moved the ball to Robertson after his push down the right was blocked.

Robertson tried to link up with N'Golo Kante and then continued to carry the ball forward.

Zabaleta defended well here and won't get up easily, which makes it difficult for Robertson to break through.

So, Son Heung-min pulled to the ribs to answer Robertson's pass.

Mitrovic was facing away from goal as Son got his hands on the ball, but he soon began to retreat.

Kompany, who had been keeping an eye on Mitrovic, quickly followed.

At this time, Son Heung-min also passed the ball to Mitrovic.

Kompany wanted to make a tackle, but Mitrovic stepped first, stopped the ball and blocked Kompany with his body to pin the Belgian behind him.

Mitrovic's strong body showed the advantage, and Kompany was blocked to prevent Mitrovic from turning, but not to shake him.

It was as if time had stopped at this moment.

Mitrovic is protecting the ball, Kompany is grabbing the ball, forming a world-famous painting: "My Ball Protector is Like Henry".

But this image actually lasted less than two seconds.

It's actually very difficult for Mitrovic to turn and shoot at this time, because Kompany is behind him and can take advantage of his leg to break the ball away at any time.

So he can only pass the ball.

To whom?

It was Paulinho who had already rushed from the midfield position at this time!

He was originally standing near the center circle, ready to receive Son Heung-min's pass, and also paid attention to the quick counterattack if the ball was broken.

At the same time, he was keeping an eye on Aleksandar Mitrovic's movements and the situation on the other side of the goal.

After seeing Mitrovic get the ball with his back, Paulinho suddenly made a gesture to pull to the right, so that Yaya Toure, who was marking him, also moved, but suddenly stopped and changed direction and rushed forward quickly.

Almost at the same time, Mitrovic's ball was also passed.

It was a little back, and the ball just rolled slowly a few times on the grass.

But that's enough.

Paulinho had already rushed past Yaya Toure, rushed straight to the edge of the penalty area, and then met the ball that slowly rolled over, which was a straight instep withdrawal!

The ball flew again to the left side of the goal.

This time, the ball speed seems to be faster than Kante's kick just now!

Paulinho's feet were already harder than N'Golo Kante, but this time he was well prepared and touched the ball just right.

Thereupon......

Once again, poor Joe Hart saw the ball fly into the net.

And this time, he didn't even have time to make a pounce.

He only had time to open his mouth wide, and spat out a British scolding:

"Maja Farke......

……

“Goallllllllllllllllllllllll！！！！！！！”

"At the last second of the race, Hamburg went to the next city! It's a lore! A real lore! After the goal, the referee blew the final whistle directly! ”

"Another world wave, this time from Brazil international Paulinho!"

With this brilliant long-range shot, Hamburg turned the score around!!! They won the first leg of the Champions League last-16 away game!! ”

"It's worth noting that it's a connection between two substitutes and another magical substitution! We now have to admire Hamburg coach Pan Yi's use of troops, which is really amazing. ”

"It's incredible! Pan Yi won again in this tactical duel with Pellegrini! It's not the first time he's beaten a world-class manager! He really is a master tactician and a master of on-the-spot command! ”

'Now Hamburg have won at the Etihad Stadium and have two valuable away goals, which has put Manchester City on the brink of collapse. City will need to win the second leg in three weeks' time and score at least two goals on the road as well. ”

"And to win at home in Hamburg, everyone knows how hard it is now! Hamburg has managed to turn the People's Park Stadium into a devil's home field! And this, also thanks to the young Dragon Country head coach Pan Yi! ”

……

After Paulinho's goal, he pointed to Aleksandar Mitrovic in his excitement to thank him for the assist.

After the two hugged each other, they also rushed to the sidelines together and gave the ball to Pan Yi.

Of course, Pan Yi was also very excited.

This goal has been waited too long!

Manchester City really deserves its reputation, even if the players are exhausted, they can still rely on strong mental strength and willpower to hold on, and they have survived until the end!

Fortunately, Paulinho came with a well-timed kick of the world wave, which did not let the victory that he was about to get in vain!

Of course, this may also be a passing thank you to the opposing goalkeeper Joe Hart......

Not only was he excited, but so were Inzaghi, Nagelsmann and others, all of whom rushed to the pitch with the substitutes and celebrated with everyone.

Because everybody knows what that goal means.

This almost means that Hamburg has one foot in the door of the Champions League quarter-finals!

The Etihad Stadium was dead silent.

Manchester City fans can only watch the revelry on the pitch and in the stands of the visiting team.

But they also don't seem to have the means to say anything.

In fact, in terms of the process of the game, Manchester City's performance really can't be considered bad.

But Hamburg played better, especially after Pan Yi made his first substitution on 65 minutes.

From that point on, the game really got into the rhythm of Hamburg, with attack after attack.

Although it sounds a bit unlucky to say that the two goals scored are world waves, many times this kind of accident is inevitable that opportunities accumulate again and again.

This is the first leg of the Champions League last-16 knockout round, and what it means to lose 2-1 at home is all too well known to Manchester City fans.

It's too difficult and too difficult to come back away from home.

So Manchester City fans are a little desperate in their hearts, but they also think that maybe there may be a miracle, so it's quite contradictory.

At this time, in the chairman's stand, Manchester City President Mubarak was also very depressed.

It was the Champions League match that he and Sheikh Mansour valued the most, but the defeat at home could be said to be on the verge of elimination.

And the one who led the team to defeat Manchester City was Pan Yi, who they were talking about just now and couldn't drive an aircraft carrier.

The speed of this slap in the face is too fast!

"This young man ......," Mubarak looked at the director Begiristan on the side, "it still feels like something, right?" Scoring a goal as soon as a substitution, this Pan Yi is really not simple. ”

Begiristan touched his face: "Hmm...... Right. Now it seems that his defensive play in the first half had a purpose, which was to be able to launch a general attack in the second half when we were falling in fitness. ”

"He's young, but he feels very old." CEO Soriano also said, "Don't panic when you're behind, but implement your tactical approach step by step, and then make a comeback." He could really be a rare coaching talent. ”

"And Hamburg is also very fluid and beautiful when they attack." Begiristain added.

To win, you also have to win beautifully, which is also a point that Manchester City's top management values more.

"So......" Mubarak narrowed, "you all think he's a good fit for us at Manchester City now?" ”

The two have not yet responded, only to hear some Manchester City fans who are exiting the nearby stands shouting loudly towards the chairman's stand:

"We want Pan Yi! He's the best coach in Europe right now! Let Pan Yi come to Manchester City to coach! Ball Ball! ”

Mubarak couldn't help but feel a little tempted.

Even Manchester City fans love the young manager.

Although age represents seniority to a certain extent, being young still has the advantage of being young.

If Pan Yi can really play beautiful and sharp football in Manchester City, it will be really profitable.

He could be at Manchester City for 10, 20 years...... Make Manchester City truly a dynasty team and a truly world-class giant!

At that time, Pan Yi was only in his forties.

As for Pellegrini?

The local tyrant team fires the head coach without blinking!

"But I've heard that Bayern are interested in him as well." "Bayern has always been very attractive to players and coaches in the Bundesliga, so ......"

"It's normal." Mubarak waved his hand, "Naturally, many people are grabbing good things, which also proves Pan Yi's strength and level, doesn't it?" As long as we Manchester City show the utmost sincerity, he will consider us. ”

Both Begiristain and Soriano nodded and turned their eyes to Pan Yi, who was celebrating with the players.

This young dragon country will be the focus of their next work!

……

Another corner of the stands.

Levy was touching his bald head and looking at his director of football Baldini with a grin:

"Yes, yes, I think this coach is good, he can win Manchester City! So, I'll go to him and let him come to our team later. ”

Bardini hurriedly grabbed Levi: "Don't worry, boss! This is a matter of long-term consideration......"

"What's the plan?" Levy glared, "We are the king of Tottenham Hotspur, the king of north London, and we can't compete for a small burger?" He must have agreed to come over. ”

Bardini swallowed: "Boss, Hamburg has won the Champions League, and the number of top league championships is ...... more than ours"

"So??" Levy scolded, "I'm X, how do I think they're just a small team?" I didn't expect there to be a lot of trophies in the honor room......"

"They're like Nottingham Forest, where their ancestors are wide." Bardini explained briefly, and then said, "Otherwise, I'll deal with Pan Yi's affairs, and I'll convey your good intentions to him." ”

"That's fine. You tell him, come to us, the money is enough! Levy thought for a moment and said, "By the way, what's the name of the guy who scored the last goal?" It looks pretty fierce. ”

"Paulinho, Brazilian." Bardi said, "He was also bought by Pan Yi in Brazil. He wasn't famous, but now he is playing well at Hamburg and is arguably one of the most improved midfielders. ”

Levi nodded: "Oh...... This guy is good. It seems that Pan Yi's vision is still quite good, and if he asks for the right to make decisions in the transfer market, I may also consider it...... Also, if you have the chance, sign Paulinho to our team, I love this kind of violent shooting! ”

Bardini: "...... Okay, I'll give it a try. ”

……

In the media seat, the two living treasures of Sky Sports did not stop bickering after the game.

Neville: "Actually, I think it's okay for Manchester City to play, but they lost two world waves, and they were a little bit unlucky. ”

Carragher: "But Hamburg won the game 2-1. ”

Neville: "In terms of control of the scene, two-thirds of the time belongs to Manchester City, and Hamburg only controls one-third of the time, which also shows that Manchester City actually have more advantages. ”

Carragher: "But Hamburg won the game 2-1. ”

Neville: "There's still a lot of pressure in our Premier League. You also saw how badly Hamburg was crushed in the first half! It wasn't until sixty or seventy minutes later that they relented. ”

Carragher: "But Hamburg won the game 2-1. ”

Neville: "...... Are you finished? It's all gibberish, isn't it? ”

Carragher: "You're the one who started talking nonsense!" ”

……

"The team that performed better, won the game!"

At the post-game press conference, Pan Yi set a tone for his speech as soon as he came up, that is: praise!

Praise the team, but also praise the players.

He made no secret of his satisfaction with his players.

Pan Yi believes that people like Vardy, N'Golo Kante, Wu Lei, Mitrovic, Paulinho and others performed very well in the game.

He also highlighted Antonio Rudiger.

Although a foul on Dzeko in the first half led to the goal from that free-kick, Rudiger took Dzeko to death in the following period, leaving the Bosnian striker with no room to play.

'Against a striker of Dzeko's level, the young Rudiger had no stage fright at all, and immediately found a way to deal with the opposition after being taught a lesson, and it has to be said that he will definitely be a world-class defender in the future!

After praising his family, Pan Yi also praised his opponent by the way.

'Manuel Pellegrini is a good coach and his style of play at Manchester City is very creative, and the flexible movement of the attacking line made us a little bit confused at the beginning.

'In the first half and at the beginning of the second half, they controlled the situation on the pitch and organised an effective attack that caused us a lot of problems.

'That goal in the first half was the mistake they forced us to make in the game. Thankfully, our players have adjusted and haven't lost confidence. That's why I just complimented my players. ”

'All in all, Etihad's Manchester City are not easy to play against and when we get back to the People's Park, we have to be cautious about the next leg.

'If the fans think we're secure a place in the quarter-finals, that's no problem, that's the confidence we gave them with today's win. But if my players think so, it's dangerous. That's why I'm going to ask the players to guard against arrogance and start from scratch and prepare well for the second game! ”

At the end of the press conference, Pan Yi still said:

"As I said at the beginning, we did better, so Hamburg deserved this win too! So, before the next game begins, let's enjoy this victory with pleasure! ”

……

In the post-match media or official ratings of players from both sides, there is a rather strange phenomenon.

That is, Kolarov, who scored the only goal for Manchester City, is not highly rated, only 5.5 points, and has not yet passed.

This is actually quite rare, because the players who score goals tend to score highly.

But the relatively uniform score shows how badly Kolarov was blown up in the second half of the second half, despite his goal.

Hamburg's substitute Wu Lei frequently broke through on his side to create a threat, and Hamburg's first goal was also launched here, and in the end, Pellegrini had to replace Kolarov.

On the other hand, Wu Lei, although he came on as a substitute, still got a high score of 7.4 due to his active running and this precious assist, even higher than Salah, who started the game.

In Hamburg, N'Golo Kante was the top scorer, and he was rightfully named Man of the Match.

First of all, his world-class wave skills shocked the four, and at the same time equalized for Hamburg, which is significant.

The second is that he contributed very impressive statistics throughout the game, both offensively and defensively, and made a great contribution to Hamburg.

In the past two or three years, N'Golo Kante has gone from being a Ligue 2 substitute to a qualified defensive midfielder, and now a well-rounded midfielder, and his progress has been by leaps and bounds.

Suffice it to say, he has become an irreplaceable part of the Hamburg squad and a truly world-class midfielder.

What's even more commendable is that no matter what time of day the game is going on, what the situation is, Kante always maintains his relentless running and positive attitude, and never complains or has any temper.

It probably really has something to do with his personality.

Such a guy who has no desires on weekdays often stops his mind on the court, so that he can output his ability without any influence.

In addition to the ratings of the players, the media also scored the managers of the two teams in an ingenious way.

Manuel Pellegrini is 6.5, which is a bit better than a pass.

It also shows that the media believes that Pellegrini's strategy in this game cannot be said to be completely wrong.

Because he knows the consequences of his tactical play if he can't quickly widen the score gap, he will quickly and keep attacking.

In fact, many teams can't stop this kind of bombardment from Manchester City.

Just like the Manchester derby, Manchester United scored two goals in the first half, which caused the mentality of the players to be a little unbalanced, and the second half was also unsustainable, so they conceded another goal and finally lost by three goals.

But it's a pity that the opponent he met this time was Pan Yi.

Although Hamburg also scored a goal first, under the command of Pan Yi, the whole team of Hamburg stabilized their mentality, the formation did not loosen, and the defense did a good job.

It wasn't until Manchester City couldn't attack anymore that Pan Yi waved the handsome flag to launch a counterattack and overtook the score in one fell swoop.

Because of this, Pan Yi got a high score of 9.5 points!

These media outlets that have praised Pan Yi include the authoritative British Times, The Guardian, and The Daily Telegraph.

For the arrogant British, Pan Yi, who has only coached in Serie A and the Bundesliga, is actually skeptical.

First of all, Pan Yi was only an assistant coach when he coached AC Milan, and of course they felt that Milan's achievements could not be counted on Pan Yi's head.

The second is that the current competitiveness of Serie A is weakening to the naked eye.

None of the teams that reached the round of 16 of the Champions League this season came from Italy!

Moreover, although Pan Yi's achievements after becoming a head coach in the Bundesliga are not counted, except for Bayern Munich and Dortmund in the Bundesliga, other teams are actually very weak and not worth mentioning.

Even Dortmund is not as good as it is year by year, and it is not very competitive now.

But after last night it was different.

Pan Yi led the team to reverse Manchester City away!

This is the best team in the Premier League in recent years, and they will be hoping to win the Premier League title this season!

Manchester City themselves represent the highest level of the Premier League.

can beat Manchester City, which can also prove Pan Yi's coaching ability.

"The Times" believes that after this war, Pan Yi is truly among the top coaches in Europe!

The Guardian also said that after Hamburg qualified from the Group of Death, they showed an indomitable momentum, and even Manchester City could not stop them at the Etihad Stadium.

Pan Yi's several substitutions in the game also showed a grasp of the game process and accurate control of timing.

Pan Yi's hamburger made a big impression in this match, and they really have a chance to challenge for the championship!

The Sun reported a grapevine that Tottenham Hotspur President Levy was spotted in the stands at the Etihad Stadium, and perhaps Pan Yi was about to leave Hamburg for White Hart Lane......

……

With the exception of Hamburg's win over Manchester City, the other three teams in the Bundesliga who have reached the knockout stages of the Champions League have had mixed performances.

Borussia Dortmund beat Zenit St. Petersburg 4-2 away, while Bayern Munich also beat Arsenal 2-0 away.

Like Hamburg, they have both secured valuable away victories and are a solid step towards their own promotion.

However, Bayer Leverkusen, who played at home, lost 0:4 to Chelsea and was basically eliminated.

These results are actually normal.

As the British media said, in addition to Bayern and Dort, other teams in the Bundesliga often accompany the prince to study in the Champions League, and few can stand up.

It's just that now another hamburger has been added, which has increased the overall competitiveness of the Bundesliga team.

At the same time, in the round of 16, the Bundesliga also temporarily led the Premier League 2:1.

Of course, this is only the first leg of the match, and in the end, who will advance in the end will have to wait until the two legs are played to see!

Before that, the Bundesliga will have another big match, which is also a "civil war" between the two teams that won the Champions League knockout.

In the 22nd round of the Bundesliga, Hamburg hosts Dortmund!
