Chapter 939: 3-0, advance to the final of the Club World Cup!

Am I a greedy person?

Li Chuanqi asked himself in his heart.

Judging by the results, this is indeed the case, and this is also human nature.

But he felt that he enjoyed the process more than the result.

In order to accomplish a goal or dream, try everything to solve all kinds of difficulties and finally defeat your opponents.

The process is quite challenging.

……

After Manchester City achieved the feat of six crowns, they plunged headlong into the preparations for the new season.

In order to confront Manchester City, the Premier League giants have squandered money and strengthened themselves this summer.

Manchester City has changed its previous pride, tightened its monetary roots, consolidated its foundations, and tried to keep the players in the team as much as possible.

According to Pep Guardiola, Manchester City have now built their own structure and are fully capable of tackling various challenges, and there is no need to hoard players.

On August 17, the 2019-20 Premier League season officially began, which also indicates that the new season is coming.

The strong Premier League giants began a new journey, and Liverpool beat promoted Manovic City 4-1 at home to achieve a good start to the new season.

Manchester City's 7-0 thrashing of West Ham United away was chilling.

Tottenham won 3-1 at home to Villa and Arsenal beat Newcastle United by a narrow goal.

Almost all of the giants have ushered in a good start.

The highlight of the first round was the strong clash between Manchester United and Chelsea.

I don't know if it's because of the European Super Cup, Chelsea offended a lot of giants, and Manchester United at home beat Chelsea 4-0, which is very shocking.

With the start of the first round, the new season has officially begun.

Manchester City faced off against Liverpool, Manchester United, Chelsea and other giants for the top spot in the Premier League.

Time is ticking by as City fans turn their attention to the upcoming Club World Cup.

Because this is their last trophy of the year, as long as they can win the Club World Cup, they will achieve the unprecedented seven crowns!

As for the Premier League temporarily behind Liverpool, they didn't take it to heart.

As the defending champions, they know how hard it can be.

In order to break Manchester City's monopoly on the Premier League, almost every team has put their spirit into the twelve-point game against Manchester City.

This has made Manchester City's road to defending their title full of bumps and difficulties, so they are currently two points behind Liverpool and second in the table.

On December 12, the Club World Cup officially began.

Manchester City flew to Qatar, the venue of the Club World Cup.

According to the format, the European champions advance directly to the semi-finals.

At 7 p.m. on the 19th, Manchester City welcomed its opponent at the Khalifa International Stadium - the champion of CONCACAF and the Caribbean, the Mexican team Monterrey!

If Manchester City wins, they will face South American champions Flamengo in the final.

In the other semi-final, the South American champions Flamengo beat Asian champions Al hilal 3-1 to advance to the final.

"Tick! ……”

With the referee's whistle, the game officially began.

Pep Guardiola did not send the strongest line-up, with Li Chuanqi and Sergio Aguero sitting on the bench.

In Pep Guardiola's view, defeating Monterrey does not require the dispatch of Li Chuanqi and Sergio Aguero, De Bruyne and others.

Soon after the start of the game, Manchester City took the initiative on the field with the advantage of strength, and the game turned into a half-time offensive and defensive drill.

Monterrey was very tenacious, dismantling Manchester City's sharp attacks again and again, keeping the score 0-0 until the end of the first half.

Manchester City had a dozen shots on goal in the first half, while Monterrey only had a pitiful one!

After a fifteen-minute intermission, the two sides changed sides and fought again.

The game was still very close, and although Manchester City had the upper hand, they were unable to break the deadlock.

In the 25th minute of the second half, Pep Guardiola replaced Li Chuanqi and Aguero at the same time.

This also indicates that Guardiola does not want to be entangled with the other party and wants to end the suspense of the game early.

The two came on the pitch to the applause of the entire stadium.

According to the words of Manchester City fans and Qatari fans, we came to see Li Chuanqi score tonight!

Coach Monterrey's face changed, damn Guardiola, can't you afford to play?

If you have the ability, you will always put Lee on the bench!

With Li Chuanqi and Sergio Aguero on the pitch, Manchester City's attack was even more ferocious.

In the thirty-second minute of the second half, after Li Chuanqi received the pass from seat B, he forcibly cut in!

After connecting the two, he was about to shoot from outside the penalty area, but was brought down.

It was a great direct free-kick opportunity and the crowd of Manchester City and Qatari fans from afar jumped for joy.

However, to his surprise, Li Chuanqi did not shoot directly this time, but passed the football to Aguero, who was standing at the end of the human wall!

After Aguero turned the ball, he shot with a blast!

Football hits the net!

It was a brilliant tactical free-kick and the pitch was cheered like a tsunami.

Aguero happily pointed at Li Chuanqi......

The group of reporters on the sidelines sighed: "This is definitely carefully rehearsed!" ”

The game restarted, and Monterrey, who had no way out, launched a fierce attack, and they wanted to drag the game into a penalty shootout, but the ideal was plump and the reality was skinny.

With a one-goal lead, it's already in the rhythm of Manchester City.

On the one hand, they were on the defensive, and on the other hand, they were ready to fight back quickly.

In the 39th minute of the second half, after a successful steal in the hinterland, Seat B directly crossed the football to David Silva on the wing.

"Smack! ……”

David Silva didn't stop the ball and made a long pass over the top!

Li Chuanqi relied on his speed advantage to get rid of the three defenders of Monterrey, and formed a single knife after taking the ball.

Overwhelming!

Li Chuanqi easily passed the goalkeeper and sent the football into the goal!

Two to zero!

The whole stadium resounded with a tsunami of cheers.

Manchester City win!

In the next game, Monterrey came out of the nest, which once again gave City a chance to fight back quickly.

In the 43rd minute of the second half, Monterrey won a corner kick opportunity, and Laporte headed the ball out of the box.

Gundogan won the ball and distributed it to David Silva on the wing.

David Silva didn't pass the ball directly this time, but took the ball and advanced quickly.

Raheem Sterling cut forward quickly along the wing.

"Smack! ……”

David Silva crossed diagonally, Raheem Sterling took the ball and forced it to the edge of the box.

"Smack! ……”

Raheem Sterling crosses with a cross and Sergio Aguero, who follows up in the middle, shoots a shot into the near corner!

Three to zero!

Manchester City finally defeated Laporte bloodlessly, advanced to the final strongly, and made great strides towards the great cause of the seven-time crown!

City weren't too excited after the game, and maybe in their minds, it's normal to make it to the final.

Can South American champions Flamengo stop Manchester City from achieving a seven-time title?

This is a question in the minds of countless journalists and fans.
