City's swift equaliser changed the situation once again.

Manchester United's advantage is gone, and their morale has also suffered a big blow.

Manchester City, on the other hand, have become more confident in attack after discovering that United's defence is not as strong as they had imagined.

So, in the second half of the first half, the situation on the pitch began to gradually turn one-sided, and it completely turned into Manchester City kicking around Manchester United's goal.

Lin Quan has always paid attention to courtesy, and Sun Xingmin fed him cakes, so he will naturally return the favor.

In the 39th minute of the first half, Lin Quan received De Bruyne's direct plug, and the anti-offside position was successful, and when he had the opportunity to score this single goal, he still selflessly passed the ball to Son Xingmin.

Son Xingmin did not waste the big gift from Lin Quan, and easily pushed the empty goal, rewriting the score to 2:1.

Seeing that Son Heung-min had scored, Guardiola was completely relieved.

The most feared thing about defensive counterattack tactics is that the score is behind, once they are in a backward state, their iron bucket formation will not be able to continue, and it is meaningless to continue to put the iron bucket formation, they must attack it.

In order to strengthen the defense, Mourinho has selected a large number of players with outstanding defensive ability in the selection of players, and these players can play a limited role in attacking, and if they want to equalize, Manchester United needs to make substitutions and adjustments.

But in that case, it will inevitably weaken their defensive ability.

Once United's defensive capabilities have been weakened, it will be easier for City to score.

Manchester City don't mind playing against Manchester United, but the question is, does the other side dare?

Jose Mourinho has been dubbed a madman, a title that he earned not only when he was talking to journalists and other teams' managers, but also about his tactics.

Seeing that the situation of the team is unfavorable, it is doomed to defeat if it continues to blindly defend.

Mourinho then let go, decisively changed the formation, and began to make substitution adjustments before the end of the first half, replacing two attacking players in one go, vowing to strengthen the attack!

Seeing that the other party is so bold, Guardiola can't help but have some admiration.

With the absence of two main centre-backs, everyone can see that there is a problem in City's backline

It's just that if you think that you can take advantage of this in the offensive battle, it is too much to underestimate Manchester City's attacking power.

So, after Mourinho made adjustments, Guardiola did not hesitate, and waved his big hand, signaling the team to speed up and play against the opponent!

Come on, who's afraid who!

Under the instruction of the head coach, the two teams began to fight vigorously against each other.

The game also instantly became more beautiful, which made the audience who came to watch the game even more excited.

The pace of the game became very fast, maybe the front foot was still a Manchester United shot, and in the blink of an eye, it was beaten by Manchester City's own goal.

In this fast-paced game, players from both sides will inevitably make mistakes in the process of advancing with the ball.

And this kind of mistake is also an excellent opportunity for another team to seize the opportunity to counterattack.

Both Pep Guardiola and Jose Mourinho are very good at this, so the competition between the two teams for the midfield, especially the interception and pressing of the opposing playmaker, has been done to the extreme.

For Manchester United, Paul Pogba and Juan Mata are the key targets for Manchester City.

On Manchester City's side, Kroos and De Bruyne were targeted in all directions.

However, there are big differences between the two teams.

In addition to De Bruyne and Kroos, Manchester City's Lin Quan in the front line can also drop back to make a cameo as the playmaker.

But Manchester United couldn't find such a man, so although both teams were attacking, it was clear that Manchester City's attacking threat was more dangerous and of higher quality.

It's not that Mourinho is unaware of Lin Quan's organizational skills, but the team can't deploy more manpower to limit Lin Quan while guarding De Bruyne and Kroos tightly.

After all, compared to the previous two, it was much more difficult to restrain Lin Quan.

This guy's individual ability is too strong, and his dribbling, breaking, and passing abilities are so strong that people can't fault them.

The key is that he still has a very high ball quotient, and the overall situation and vision are also very broad, and when he is trapped, he can choose to rely on his excellent individual ability to go it alone, or he can pass the ball at the right time.

There are so many people on the pitch that more than one person comes forward to cover one person and it means that there will definitely be space elsewhere.

If he takes the opportunity to pass the ball, it will be very deadly.

Therefore, Mourinho doesn't want to deal with Lin Quan, he really can't deal with it.

When he was at Inter, he could arrange Zanetti to limit Messi, but at Manchester United, he couldn't find such a suitable candidate, if he could really find it, then he would have used it a long time ago!

If you can't limit Lin Quan, it means that Manchester United will suffer a big loss in the attack.

Although they held on to the first half and did not concede a third goal, Lin Quan assisted Gabriel Jesus to score another goal shortly after the start of the second half, rewriting the score to 3:1.

At the Etihad, when City took a two-goal lead, they were essentially condemning Manchester United's death sentence.

Although Pep Guardiola frantically used up the third substitution, Lingard was also brought on to continue to strengthen the attack.

But it was still in vain, but it was Manchester City's side, substitute Sane scored another goal in the 85th minute of the game, and the score was fixed at 4:1!

Manchester City have won another Manchester derby, making it their seventh straight win against Manchester United.

This made the Red Devils fans wail, if this continues, Manchester United is afraid that it will not have a psychological shadow on Manchester City!

After losing the away game by a big score, Mourinho was in a bad mood, and left the field early without waiting for Guardiola to come and shake hands with him after the game.

He's had a lot of bad things lately, and after this defeat, you can expect how much trouble he'll get in the next press conference.

But this can't blame others, who told him to fight with reporters when he has nothing to do, and make enemies everywhere?

After the game, Mourinho's helpless expression on the sidelines, as well as the photos of being besieged by media reporters and tired of coping after the game, attracted heated discussions among countless fans.

"Alas, Mourinho feels different, not like before!"

Some fans saw that Mourinho's sideburns were full of gray hair, far less energetic than they were in Inter and Real Madrid, and they all sighed.

What was Mourinho like back then?

With Porto who is not optimistic about anyone, he won the championship with a counterattack, and then went to England to challenge the dynasty of the Red Devils with the Blues, and won two Premier League trophies in the strong Premier League.

Although he was dismissed because of his poor relationship with Abu, after he went to the Apennines, he returned with a group of veterans of Inter Milan to complete the incredible feat of the treble.

With two Champions League trophies in hand, he, like Pep Guardiola, has become the top coach in football.

When he was graciously invited by Real Madrid to the Bernabeu to take over Real Madrid's galactic battleship, how high-spirited was Mourinho?

However, all the turning points must be counted from the moment he picked up the whip of Real Madrid.

The defeat at Real Madrid was like the last straw that broke the camel's back, and since then, Mourinho's magic has disappeared all at once.

In the second phase of Chelsea, his managerial record was lackluster, with defeats in the cup, league and Champions League.

After joining Manchester United, he was a little bit of a highlight at the beginning of the season, and then he continued to sink and sink again.

At this time, Manchester United has already fallen out of the championship group in the standings, and even next season's Champions League place is not stable, and needs to fight Tottenham, Arsenal and Liverpool.

If Manchester United's last four are empty, and they don't even have a Champions League spot, I wonder if Mourinho will be fired again and coach another team?

Changing teams too often is not a good thing for players and managers.

It takes time to perfectly integrate their tactical concepts into the team, but in the increasingly impetuous world of football, many teams often do not give their coaches so much time, and once the results do not meet their requirements, they will quickly move and let the head coach, the person who is most likely to carry the blame, get out.

And being fired frequently will lead to worse and worse coaching results, falling into a vicious circle, and finally losing their jobs or even finding no such person.

Seeing Mourinho's anxious appearance, people naturally think of another person who used to be as famous as him - Pep Guardiola.

Compared to Jose Mourinho, Pep Guardiola's career after leaving Barcelona has not been smooth, and his one-and-a-half-year experience in charge of Bayern Munich has definitely not been successful.

But Pep Guardiola has long been out of the woods, and now under his leadership, Manchester City's results are thriving, and he has not only started the second spring of his career, but also has the potential to break through the peak of the Dream Three Dynasty and create a more brilliant dynasty.

As soon as the two sides are compared, people can't help but feel sorry for Mourinho.

"It's a pity that Mourinho doesn't have the same good luck as Guardiola, if his son can be as good as Lin Quan, then the result is likely to be completely different!"

……

Regarding the outside world's claim that he succeeded by fighting for children, Guardiola not only did not refute, but responded with a smile:

"I'm lucky to have been able to meet a talent like Messi and Lin in a row!"

Guardiola belongs to the existence of the peak of his debut, and when he first debuted as a coach, he met a genius like Messi, and led a group of geniuses from La Masia to create the Dream Three Dynasty.

Pep Guardiola is strong, but without Messi, his coaching career at Barcelona would not have been so successful.

According to Pep Guardiola, it was Messi who took him to heights that did not belong to him and made him think that success was very simple.

It wasn't until a series of failures after leaving Barcelona and Messi that he gradually understood that such success was just accidental.

Without Messi, many of his tactics and ideas could not be perfectly executed, others simply could not meet his requirements, and only true geniuses could complete the tasks he assigned.

But Pep Guardiola's luck is too good, and Lin Quan's sudden rise makes him soon not have to think about these troubles.

The current Manchester City, although it has not yet reached the most perfect form envisioned in Guardiola's heart, as long as Lin Quanquan is there, it is enough.

All he has to do is build the team little by little around Lin Quan, the cornerstone of team building!

Therefore, the outside world said that he was lucky, relying on his son, not only was he not angry, but he was also proud.

Who called my son great!

You have the ability to give birth to such a powerful son!

……

Manchester United's loss to Manchester City, in addition to Manchester United fans, was the Leicester City fans who were most disappointed.

originally had high hopes for Manchester United, but how did you know that Manchester United couldn't help but fight and shatter when touched?

Well, with only seven games left in the league and nine points behind, the hope of winning the title is already very slim!

However, what makes Leicester desperate is yet to come!

In the 32nd round of the league, Manchester City visited Bournemouth.

In the first half, Lin Quan scored two goals in 15 minutes to seal the victory, De Bruyne scored directly from a free kick, and before the final whistle, Demichelis scored with a header in front of the goal, and Manchester City beat their opponents 4-0 cleanly, winning three in a row.

Despite Leicester's best efforts to beat Southampton 1-0 at home again, the gap between them and Manchester City has not been narrowed.

With only six rounds left in the league and Leicester City, who are still nine points behind, only the theoretical hope of winning the championship remains.

Fortunately, the quarter-finals of the Champions League are about to start, and Manchester City, which is affected by the Champions League, is likely to lose points in the league due to poor multi-front combat conditions.

This is Leicester's last chance, and if they miss it, they will have nothing to do but sit back and watch City defend their title.

……

On April 4, Manchester City immediately set off after playing in the league to prepare for the Champions League match against Paris Saint-Germain three days later.

Manchester City were lucky enough to get the away and home fixtures at the time of the draw.

It's a fixture in their favour, they don't even need to win on the road, as long as they can get away goals and don't lose by a big margin, then they have a good chance of progressing at home.

Of course, if they can win away from home, then they will naturally have less pressure in the next leg.

However, with Guardiola's warning, the players are not arrogant.

Although Paris is a Ligue 1 team, their own strength is not weak, this game is the opponent's home stadium, the game will definitely be difficult to play, they have to prepare for the worst.

As a two-time Champions League winner, Manchester City is currently well-known in Europe and around the world, plus the team also has a large number of stars, especially superstars like Lin Quan.

So they met a lot of fans who came to pick up the airport at the airport, many of these fans are Chinese, some of them are students studying in France, some are tourists who come here to play, after learning the news that Manchester City is coming to play in the Champions League, they came to pick up the airport.

The purpose of these people is very clear, that is, they are coming for Lin Quan, which can be seen from the various banners and slogans they hold to welcome Lin Quan.

When he saw these people, Lin Quan was very surprised and moved.

So I took the initiative to take a photo with these people, signed autographs for them by the way, and gave them a few jerseys.

Lin Quan's enthusiasm also exceeded the expectations of these fans, they didn't expect the other party to be super giant, so approachable, they were all excited, and after getting the autographs and gifts, they couldn't help but show off in the group and on the Internet.

This made some other people who got the news, but didn't come for various reasons, and their intestines are about to regret it!

I knew that Emperor Lin was going to give gifts and autographs, and I would have to come here anyway, if I missed this opportunity, I am afraid that there will not be such a good opportunity next time!
