Chapter 674: Li Chuanqi came off the bench and caused a huge controversy!

After a fifteen-minute half-time break, players from both sides returned to the field.

Surprisingly, neither manager made any changes to the lineup!

The Sky Sports commentator was surprised and said: "Does Guardiola have to play a big game?" Lee is still sitting on the bench, is there a problem between them?

Or has he given up on tonight's game to focus on the top spot clash with Liverpool at the weekend?

If it's for the top battle of the weekend, Guardiola can indeed not give Lee a chance to play tonight! โ€

The Manchester City Sport commentator also questioned: "There is no doubt that Pep Guardiola thinks the weekend's battle with Liverpool is more important!" โ€

Hoffenheim coach Nagelsmann glanced at the sidelines and found that Manchester City had not made personnel changes, so he was inexplicably relieved and his expression was much more relaxed.

"Are you really going to give up this game for the sake of being top of the Premier League?"

Manchester City fans seem to have understood Guardiola's intentions.

"Lee hasn't played yet......"

Hoffenheim relaxed, okay, Guardiola, you must press Lee to the bench!

The battle for the top spot with Liverpool is coming up at the weekend, and that game is all that matters!

"Drop! โ€ฆโ€ฆโ€

With the referee's whistle, the second half of the game officially began.

Manchester City launched a tidal wave of attacks on Hoffenheim, who opted for the final stage of the first half and set up a bucket formation.

Manchester City launched a charge again and again, and returned again and again in vain.

"Lee!"

"Lee!"

"Lee!"

Seeing that their team had been unable to attack for a long time, some Manchester City fans had lost patience and shouted Li Chuanqi's name in the stands.

Guardiola, who was standing in the command area, looked more and more ugly.

The Sky Sports commentator laughed: "What are Manchester City fans thinking? Do they want to win all the games? Didn't they know that Manchester City were going to face Liverpool at the top of the table this weekend?

Pep Guardiola won't let Lee play! โ€

However, there was a surprise ......

"Let Lee warm up!"

Pep Guardiola called the tactical coach to his side and gave the command.

The tactical coach asked, "Are you sure you want Lee on the court?" โ€

After receiving an affirmative answer, he hurriedly went to the bench, called on a few players, and led them to start warming up on the sidelines.

This scene did not escape the attention of reporters, and changed Li to play?

Changing Lee to play with this kind of score?!

Pep Guardiola, do you think you made a wise decision?

The Manchester City sports station commentator said: "Lee is warming up!

That means he's about to play!

It seems that tonight's game is also very important in Pep Guardiola's mind!

Maybe...... Pep Guardiola was to give Lee an early feeling in tonight's game, again for the big game against Liverpool three days later.

That's how it should be! โ€

The Sky Sports commentator said suspiciously: "Returning again and again in vain has made Guardiola lose patience, and he is finally going to send Lee on the field!" But has he forgotten that Manchester City will face Liverpool in three days' time?

I don't think Pep Guardiola's substitution was the right decision!

Will Lee be able to help Manchester City get back on the score? โ€

The German national television commentator said: "Ten minutes have passed in the second half, and there is not much time left for Lee, and I don't think he can change anything in this short time!"

As long as Hoffenheim stick to their current style of play, they can hope to get their first win in the Champions League! โ€

Hoffenheim coach Nagelsmann, who was directing the game in the command area, inadvertently turned his head to look at the Manchester City bench, and he didn't notice Li Chuanqi.

His face changed, and he quickly turned his head to look for it, and found Li Chuanqi in Manchester City's warm-up area.

In an instant, Nagelsmann's face changed, from the high-spirited attitude just now to a serious face.

He immediately called the tactical coach to his side, and the two quickly exchanged opinions, focusing on clarifying how to adjust the defensive strategy after Li Chuanqi came on the court.

In the twentieth minute of the second half, Li Chuanqi and the fourth passer and tactical coach came to the outside of the middle line and waited to play.

Manchester City fans looked at Pep Guardiola in the command area with mixed eyes.

Well, we choose to support you for no reason

They refocused on tonight's game and gave Li Chuanqi a round of applause!

Now that Pep Guardiola has not given up tonight's game, the clarion call for Manchester City's counterattack should be sounded!

Hoffenheim looked at Li Chuanqi, who was about to play on the sidelines, a worry flashed in his eyes, and surprise appeared in his heart.

Pep Guardiola: This is ...... Don't want to throw in the towel?

But in this situation, will Lee's play definitely have an effect?

"Robin, shall we have some excitement?"

A young yellow-haired Hoffenheim fan turned to his companion and asked, "Something racist, to stimulate Lee?" โ€

The companion immediately stopped him: "Don't! Have you forgotten what happened two weeks ago? 'Who is Anthony Lรณpez? It's now an internet buzzword.

It's okay to provoke anyone, don't provoke Lee!

That would come at a terrible price! โ€

The yellow-haired young Hoffenheim fan thought about it, then nodded and stopped his crazy thoughts.

Five goals in the half, this is the price of angering Li Chuanqi.

It's better not to provoke this guy.

Li Chuanqi was ready to play, attracting the attention of the entire stadium.

When Li Chuanqi and Sane hugged and walked into the stadium, the Manchester City fans burst into thunderous applause and huge cheers!

The Manchester City sports station commentator said: "Guardiola didn't want to give up this game, so when he was down 0-2 and couldn't open the situation, he still played his trump card!"

In that case, we have chosen to support Pep Guardiola.

I think Pep Guardiola's main purpose in the current form, when he replaced Lee, is to get him to find his form in the game, not to get back into the score.

Bringing Lee on the pitch was for the weekend's top clash with Liverpool. โ€

The German National Sports Channel commentator disagreed: "Will Lee be able to change the situation on the field if he is on the court now?" I don't think so, he's been mythologized.

The Arena of Lyin-Neckar will be a sad place for him!

Hoffenheim would have shown him that he was not omnipotent! โ€

The Sky Sports commentator said: "Will this be a turning point in the half? We'll see! โ€

The crowd of reporters on the sidelines was lively:

"Does Pep Guardiola want to give up this game?"

"Guardiola is crazy, why do you change this score? Did he really think that Lee could do anything? โ€

"I don't think Lee can change anything when he comes on, Hoffenheim are doing a good job defending!"

"Leaving aside whether Lee can change the situation when he comes on the pitch, isn't Guardiola afraid that Lee will be injured again and affect the big game with Liverpool at the weekend?"

"If Lee is injured tonight, Pep Guardiola will definitely be under fire from the Manchester City fans!"

On the pitch, Manchester City players stepped forward to hug Li Chuanqi and told him not to work too hard, stay healthy and find a feeling for the game.

Li Chuanqi's thoughts are different from them, since he is standing on the court, winning will definitely come first.

As for Liverpool three days later...... Is that the problem?

Since he put me on the pitch, he just wants to win this game!

Hoffenheim coach Nagelsmann saw Li Chuanqi on the field and immediately responded by adjusting the lineup, replacing midfielder Demirbay with a more defensive Harker.

The game restarted and City continued to attack Hoffenheim.

A minute after Li Chuanqi came on the field, the football came to his feet for the first time.

The Hoffenheim line reacted quickly and immediately formed an encirclement to strangle the danger in the cradle.

Manchester City fans were in anticipation, and Hoffenheim fans let out loud shouts.

Li Chuanqi took a deep breath, and his center of gravity suddenly rose!

He's going to turn on Breakthrough Mode!

The stadium fell silent in an instant.
