Back four [from left to right]: Danilo, Mangala, Otamendi and Walker
Three midfielders [from left to right]: JD, Fernandinho and Gretzka
Three strikers [from left to right]: Sane, Jesus and Bernardo Silva
Seeing the starting lineups of both sides, everyone was a little surprised, because both teams have made adjustments here, and they are not their absolute main lineups.Crystal Palace's defense has changed. Both Cancelo and Rudiger are sitting on the bench. This should be a normal rotation.
The Manchester City team was very surprised, it didn't look like a normal rotation at all.
Tong Yi naturally saw it too.
Obviously, the Manchester City team deliberately hid some main attackers in the arrangement of the starting lineup, and it is obvious that they want to strike late.After all, the Manchester City striker saw Aguero and Sterling sitting on the bench. Isn't this intention obvious?
Of course, some people will say that Jesus and Sane are not weak, and they scored a lot in the previous game.
After all, Sane and Jesus are also among the top scorers, and they are also the top scorers in Manchester City this season. Their starting lineup can also represent the strongest strength of the Manchester City team.
However, everyone knows that Aguero and Sterling are obviously more aggressive.
In such an important game, these two should be the starters.
Now that these two people didn't start, what is it?
Seeing this, Tong Yi is here to remind the Crystal Palace players to pay attention to defense when attacking.
The players of Crystal Palace were a little surprised, why?
Seeing a lineup like Manchester City at this time, shouldn't they attack?Try to get a big lead before Aguero and Sterling play, so that Aguero and Sterling have no chance to play.
beep!
At this time, the referee Jonathan Moss blew the whistle to start the game.
The home team, Crystal Palace, kicked off first. A long pass from the backcourt found the Portuguese center in front. He directly overwhelmed Mangala who was rushing out, and then shook his head and threw the football to the side.
To be honest, Mangala's starting start is also a bit surprising to everyone. After all, Mangala is already old. Shouldn't Stones start at this time?Why is Stones sitting on the bench today?
This ball Mangala was directly suppressed by Ronaldo.
The ball was placed very well, and the football fell precisely in front of Salah.
Immediately, the fans of Crystal Palace became excited, screaming excitedly, this is a good opportunity.
But Walker's speed was very fast, and he was in place directly, blocking the line of Salah's inward cut.Salah immediately passed the ball and tried to break through, but it was unsuccessful.He suddenly made a diagonal pass, and quickly passed the football inverted triangle back to the front of the penalty area.
De Bruyne rushed up to meet the ball and shot it. Boom, the football shot towards Manchester City's goal quickly.
Manchester City fans were all nervous.
But the next moment, Fernandinho directly blocked the football with his body, and the football changed direction rapidly and popped out of the baseline.
"Sure enough, Crystal Palace played very proactively at home and launched a fierce attack at the beginning. It seems that Manchester City's strategy of attacking later is correct. As long as they survive this period of time, the second half of the game is waiting for Aguero. When playing with Sterling, Manchester City may have an advantage!" Mortensen said.
Vieira also immediately said: "It is indeed the case. Guardiola is really good. I think his tactics are very successful. In this game, it will be really difficult for Crystal Palace to win. And with such a long winning streak, they should also be weak!"
Hiller shook his head slightly, but did not speak.
corner kick!
Crystal Palace won a corner and the Manchester City fans were on edge.
After all, Crystal Palace's corner kick tactics are very powerful, and the scoring rate is very high. At this time, giving the Crystal Palace a corner kick is actually quite dangerous.
Special Olympics glanced at the penalty area, then directly raised his right hand, signaling the Crystal Palace players to get ready.
beep!
With the sound of the whistle, Special Olympics ran quickly, then quickly rushed to the football, and kicked the football hard.
The ball went directly to the middle of the penalty area. Ronaldo and Van Dijk in the middle took off at the same time. Both Otamendi and Mangala felt great pressure.They jumped up desperately, but the football was still topped by C Ronaldo.
C. Ronaldo really jumped too high, which made Manchester City's central defender feel a huge sense of powerlessness.
With a bang, the Portuguese center in the air shook his head and slammed the football into Manchester City's goal.
The speed of the ball is very fast, like a bullet out of the chamber.
Bravo in front of the goal reacted quickly, soaring into the air, and directly shot the football with a single palm.
Manchester City immediately made a clearance and the football flew out of the touchline.
so close!
The fans of the Manchester City team were scared to death. The Crystal Palace is indeed very strong. They are a bit suppressed because the Manchester City team is so strong. No wonder they can win so many consecutive victories.
Manchester City fans were all nervous.
Crystal Palace quickly threw the ball from the sideline, but it was a pity that it was directly intercepted by Manchester City.
This guy Gretzka has already laid an ambush.
After stealing the ball, Gretzka immediately kicked a long-distance through ball, directly planning the defense of Crystal Palace.
The fans of the Manchester City team at the scene became excited instantly, jumping up excitedly, a good opportunity!
One second he was desperate, and the next second he became excited.
Manchester City people see the hope of scoring!
Because the ball has really penetrated the defense line of the Crystal Palace. Firstly, Gretzka's passing line is very good, and he directly found the dead spot of the Crystal Palace defense line. Second, the Crystal Palace has been anxious to attack, and the defense is a bit sparse. to prevent.
On this ball, Upamecano pressed a bit forward.
Therefore, Gretzka seized the opportunity in an instant and penetrated Upamecano's defense.
Single-handedly, this ball is single-handed!
The excitement of Manchester City fans can be imagined.
Tong Yi on the sideline raised his eyebrows slightly, this ball is really very dangerous.
Maignan in front of the goal immediately made a quick attack and rushed to the football.But the opponent's striker Jesus has already rushed up and came to football, which is very dangerous!Maignan immediately prepared for a side attack, and he felt that Jesus was about to shoot.
Sure enough, at this moment, Jesus, who was catching up with the football, suddenly volleyed and slammed the football towards the goal of Crystal Palace.
Maignan reacted very quickly in front of the goal and immediately closed his legs.
With a bang, the football that was rolling fast against the turf hit Maignan's folded left foot, changed direction slightly, and then quickly rolled into the Crystal Palace goal.
"Goal! In the 7th minute of the first half, Manchester City scored a goal, and it was Gabriel Jesus who scored the goal! Of course, a lot of credit for this goal seems to be on Gretzka. They broke through the defense of the Crystal Palace. It seems that people who are familiar with the Crystal Palace are the most dangerous!" Vieira was really excited, seeing the ball as if he saw Manchester City win.
The Manchester City fans who came from afar became excited, jumping and jumping, screaming!
They are so happy, this start is dreamy enough.
And this also made them feel that their Manchester City team will win this game.
Jesus, who scored the goal, was also very excited, rushed out directly, and came to a passionate kneeling.
Jesus roared in his heart: "Who said we can't do it? Who said we are just here to consume the bait of the Crystal Palace?"
Sane was also very excited, and slid and knelt directly to hug Jesus and celebrate together.
It can be seen that they are really excited and excited.
"The ball was indeed a bit sudden, but it wasn't sudden at all when we looked carefully! When the Crystal Palace threw the ball from the touchline, the Manchester City players stood a little forward. From this we can see that Gua Diola's formation of this lineup is obviously not to show weakness to the enemy, to consume the Crystal Palace, let alone want to strike back! On the contrary, he put up a starting lineup to make everyone and Tong Yi think that Manchester City is going to strike late, but in fact he is We must strike first!" Shearer said with a very serious face.
He didn't think of this when he scored the goal just now anyway, but when he saw the slow motion of the goal, he was clearly aware of it.Because the position of the Manchester City players is not a conservative position, it is obvious that they will attack as soon as they come up, and grab the opening position.
Sure enough, this Guardiola really has too many eyes.
The players of Crystal Palace were obviously fooled, otherwise Upamecano would not be so reckless, the position would not be so high, and the full-backs would not be so high.This will not allow the Manchester City people to get a single-handed goal so easily!
It can be said that the Crystal Palace people misestimated the skills and tactics of the Manchester City people, which led to this conceded goal.
Sure enough, Guardiola has two brushes!
Vieira also nodded slightly, and said bluntly: "It is indeed the case. The position of the Manchester City team does not seem to be a defensive position that is good at attacking from behind. It can be seen that Mr. Guardiola is really very thoughtful. , Crystal Palace is completely fooled, this goal can be said to be the success of Guardiola's tactics."
The fans of the Manchester City team at the scene were very excited, singing and dancing at the home court of Crystal Palace, let alone how happy they are.
The more important thing is that Manchester City fans see the possibility of their club defeating Crystal Palace. It seems that Crystal Palace is not as strong as the outside world advertises. Their Manchester City team is the most powerful contender for the Premier League title this season.
The championship belongs to our Manchester City team.
The fans of Manchester City celebrated in the stands while stimulating the fans of Crystal Palace, let alone how cool they are at this time, they are so cool!
Tong Yi on the sidelines immediately spread his hands, expressing that he was also helpless.
Before the start of the game, he reminded the Crystal Palace players to pay attention to defense when attacking. Unfortunately, these guys didn't pay much attention to his words, which led to the conceded goal.Tong Yi didn't know what to say?
Upamecano and Special Olympics in the stadium immediately raised their hands to Tong Yi, saying that the ball was their fault.
Tong Yi waved his hand, signaling to the Crystal Palace players not to care, and not to worry about this conceded goal.Let him pass the past, and just play seriously in the next game.Conceding a goal is not a big deal now, and they have seen such scenes a lot in Crystal Palace, so there is no need to worry at all, just play according to their previous tactics.
The Crystal Palace players nodded, expressing their understanding.
Soon, the game between the two sides resumed.
Crystal Palace is obviously still the main attacking side, and Manchester City's side is not completely defensive.The two teams fought fiercely in the midfield, and the possession of the ball also alternated back and forth.
Suddenly, the midfielder Casemiro directly sent a diagonal long pass, and directly grounded the ball to the forward Salah's feet.
Salah caught the ball again, and the hearts of Manchester City fans suddenly tightened.
At this moment, Salah quickly moved the ball laterally, and then shot a burst, volleying the football to the upper right corner of Manchester City's goal.
The ball was so fast that even Bravo, who was flying sideways, didn't touch the football, and the football flew directly to Manchester City's goal.
