Chapter 65: Or Handball?

It's just a pity that there is no VAR in this era, Weiman's unjust case can only be accepted silently, plus Jose successfully saved the opponent's penalty, and Villa is not a loss.

The game continues.

It's still the siege of Manchester City.

Bannan was in defense and received the first yellow card of the game.

The referee's penalty scale was not tightened too tightly.

In the 63rd minute, Paul Lambert started a substitution.

Albrighton and Holman came off the bench at the same time, with a somewhat emotional Weimann and a conscientious Ireland being substituted.

Before the two had time to warm up, City's attack came again.

David Silva tried to break through into the box from the baseline and got into the box after shaking off two of Villa's players.

Something happened that left Villa fans speechless.

After Bannan fell to the ground while defending, he actually used his hands to intercept the ball.

Penalty kick.

Referee Moss was decisive this time.

As for Villa's players, none of them have any objections.

"Damn, did Villa No.25 handball on purpose? Does he think that a goalkeeper who is very good at saving penalties can foul in the box with impunity? ”

No one answered, because there really was such a possibility.

Aguero, who had already missed a penalty, did not ask for another penalty this time, but conceded it to fellow countryman Tevez.

At this point, Tevez didn't know the success rate of Jose's penalty save, so he confidently walked to 12 yards.

On the contrary, the fans and spectators at the scene held their breath and stared intently in the direction of Villa's goal.

Although his teammates were full of confidence in Jose, Jose did not dare to relax in the slightest, and he knew very well that a penalty was an instant decision.

"Is it the bottom right corner again?"

When Tevez finished running and touched the ball, Jose had already caught the direction of the opponent's shot.

It was another stunning save.

Jose made another successful save.

"Miracle, this is really a miracle." The on-site commentator couldn't help but shout.

Normally, a penalty is a huge blow to a player's confidence, but for Aguero, it only whets his desire to score.

In the 66th minute, Villa's counter-attack failed, but instead gave City a quick counter-attack.

Sergio Aguero shook off Villa's backline and formed a one-on-one stance.

In the face of Aguero's one-on-one knife, Jose did not rush to attack, but slowly retreated to the small penalty area.

"Drink."

Just as Aguero burst into the penalty area, Jose suddenly shouted, and a momentum of being a man and a man was suddenly dispersed.

Rao is Aguero, who was also more or less affected by this momentum, and his movements actually paused slightly.

It was these pauses that Jose struck.

A hungry tiger pounced, and Jose's figure lunged forward and snatched the ball from Aguero's feet.

Sergio Aguero missed a great one-on-one chance.

Manchester City's successive attacks were fruitless, and Mancini began to make substitutions.

Dzeko came on in place of Sergio Aguero, Kolarov came on for Klicy and Scott Sinclair for David Silva.

Roberto Mancini will be hoping that his substitutes will be able to use their fitness to make a final attack on Villa's goal.

In stoppage time, City launched their final attack.

Dzeko picked up the ball on the left side of the Villa penalty area, and in the face of two Villa players, Dzeko opted to cross to Nasri in the box.

The moment Nasri picked up the ball, Jose noticed Tevez at the far post sprinting quickly into the box.

In this situation, Jose quickly analyzed in his mind, he was standing on the left side of the goal at the moment, and under his own blocking, Nasri's shooting angle was not much, but Nasri could pass to Tevez, who was unmarked at the back point.

And after Tevez gets the ball, he can push the right side of the goal, in that case, even if he uses stunts, it is impossible to catch up.

If Jose moves to the right now, Nasri's shot angle will increase, and then he will only need to hit the goal himself to complete the stunner.

This seems to be an unsolvable situation.

Unless......

José came up with an idea.

"Pay attention to David." Jose shouted at his teammates and pretended to move to the right, but he didn't actually move at all.

Seeing that Jose was going to block the right side, Nasri, who was originally going to pass the ball to Tevez, decisively chose to shoot himself.

When he ejaculated, he realized that he had been fooled, and Jose didn't move a single inch at all.

Goalkeepers also feint?

In the end, Manchester City could only draw at home to Villa.

Post-match summary:

In this game, Manchester City had a whopping 32 shots on goal, and 15 shots on target.

Villa, on the other hand, had just nine shots on goal and two shots on target.

In addition to the huge difference in shots, City also led the way in possession, with 66.6 per cent possession and Villa's measly 33.4 per cent.

Of course, the most important thing is that City have been awarded two penalties in succession.

Therefore, Villa was able to get out of the way, in addition to luck, more importantly, Jose's super-god performance.

In the media coverage the next day, all aspects of José's information were described in detail.

At this point, Jose's name has officially entered the public eye.

Before that, people mentioned Jose as nothing more than huge potential, transfer king, Abu people stupid and money, etc., and few people really paid attention to his role in the game.

It was at this time that someone sourly asked the question: "Chelsea have Cech in their age, Courtois in their youngness, and now there is another Jose, are they planning to monopolize the goalkeeper market in the future?" ”

Naturally, no one takes this issue seriously, but it cannot be denied that Chelsea's reserves in the goalkeeper position are already the first in the world.

Provided that there are no accidents.

Jose scored 8.1 after the game, saving two penalties and single-handedly leading his team away from the Etihad Stadium.

Compared to Jose's brilliant current round, his club Chelsea is not having a good time.

Roberto Di Matteo's Chelsea lost away to West Bromwich Albion.

West Brom's Glong opened the scoring and Eden Hazard equalised, but on 51 minutes of the second half, Gronn set up his team-mates to take the lead again.

Chelsea are on a four-game winless run and Di Matteo's dismissal is getting louder. Four days later, Chelsea's 3-0 defeat at Juventus saw Roberto Di Matteo, who brought Abobou his first Champions League trophy, swept away.

Di Matteo was replaced by Spanish coach Rafael Benitez, a legendary coach who led Liverpool to a 3-0 comeback over AC Milan.

Of course, Jose didn't care too much about Chelsea's situation, after all, he now represents the Aston Villa team.

In the 12th round of the English Premier League, in addition to Chelsea's upset loss, Manchester United also lost to Norwich City away, and Manchester United lost the opportunity to regain the top spot.

In addition to the big three upsets, Southampton, who had been losing bottom, won 3-1 away at Queens Park Rangers.

Drawing away from the defending champions is naturally a cause for joy.

But Jose couldn't be happier, and he found that due to his age, his fitness could not keep up with the senior team players.

Rotation is imperative.
