The score in the first half was 1-0, and Aston Villa was 1-0 ahead of Manchester City.

Not long after the second half began, Mancini made a substitution, he replaced Dzeko and Balotelli.

In the European Cup in the summer, although there was a shocking situation of "thinking about life", Balotelli's overall performance in the European Cup was very outstanding.

This shows that from Germany's value to Balotelli, before the European Cup, Balotelli's value was 28 million euros, and after the European Cup, Bass' value rose to 35 million euros.

As a compatriot, Mancini has always been "hateful to the iron" towards Balotelli, and has also repeatedly expressed a contradictory mentality.

He once sent the Italian striker to the cold palace and said, "I don't trust Balotelli, no one will believe him."

He has also defended this "problem youth" more than once and said: "If you work hard and understand the importance of your career, Balotelli will be the next Messi."

After shining in the European Cup, Mancini praised Balotelli again and had high hopes: you will see a very, very, very outstanding Balotelli in the new season.

In the first half, Dzeko and Aguero were very restricted.

Mancini chose to continue to trust Aguero.

But replaced Dzeko with his favorite Mario.

However, after the second half of the game began, Aston Villa, who was leading by one goal, played ball possession and defensive counterattack, which made Manchester City not have any good solutions for both offensive ends.

Fang Jue arranged for Clement to take care of Balotelli.

Fang Jue was also a little afraid of this Ba Shen, who would occasionally get confused and staged a stunning work.

...

Five minutes later.

Balotelli dribbled the ball and was thrown to the ground by Clement.

The referee signaled that there was no foul, and it was a clean tackle.

Slow motion also shows that Clement's tackle is a textbook, first shoveling the football and then bringing Balotelli down. However, Clement also stopped his feet and had no intention of hurting people.

But Balotelli quit.

The god Ba, who had climbed up from the ground, directly smashed Clement in a subsequent fight.

The referee showed Balotelli a red card without hesitation.

Although this move may not be enough for the red card, the nature of Balotelli's revenge is too obvious, so the referee will naturally not indulge it.

"Red card, does Balotelli know what he is doing? He got a red card for himself and got off the court."

Balotelli, who was sent off with a red card, was unwilling to leave the field and chattered continuously, but in the end he was pulled and pulled by Kompany.

The camera gave Mancini's close-up to the sidelines. The Italian head coach's face turned pale and he didn't even look at him. Balotelli left the court.

"Mancini has reason to be angry. He gave Balotelli a chance again and again, but he was always injured."

"Mr. Mourinho once mentioned Balotelli in an interview. During the intermission of a game, he told Balotelli for 14 minutes in the locker room. You should know that the intermission only has 15 minutes in total. Mourinho repeatedly reminded Ba Shen not to be angry by the opponent's provocation. Ba Shen listened carefully and seemed to understand what Mourinho meant. But just seven minutes into the second half, he got a red card and ended up..."

Fang Jue was also very dissatisfied with Balotelli's behavior, and he was worried that Clement would be injured.

Which player is the most important in this Aston Villa?

Not Ibrahimovic.

Not Lewandowski.

Not Modric either.

It's Clement!

Fortunately, Clement was fine, stood up and received a simple treatment, and returned to the court to continue the game.

Balotelli was sent off by a red card, which directly disrupted Mancini's deployment and also had a significant blow to Manchester City's morale.

More than ten minutes later, Aston Villa got a free kick in the frontcourt.

Ibrahimovic's free kick passed the wall and flew into the net.

The Swedish veteran rewritten the score to 2-0, and also secured the victory.

In the end, Aston Villa defeated Manchester City 2-0 away and advanced to the next round of the English League Cup.

...

Judging from the overall game, Aston Villa won relatively easily, which also made some media and fans doubt whether Manchester City can overturn Aston Villa's hegemony this season.

However, after the game, Mancini refused to admit defeat, and he believed that the referee on duty was too strict with Balotelli's red card.

"The referee should consider the balance of the game. Law enforcement competitions are not enough to play cards. He should consider the viewing of the game."

"A red card changed the course of the game."

"Facing an opponent like Aston Villa, the disadvantage of missing one person is irreparable in any way," Mancini complained.

Fang Jue scoffed at this, criticizing that Balotelli was a spoiled child.

"In this case, if I were Manchester City coach, I would not protect Balotelli.

Mario is a genius. A genius should do what a genius should do. He should use his talents on the court, rather than make mistakes from time to time."

Fang Jue's words even won the recognition of Manchester City fans.

Manchester media also criticized Mancini after the game.

Some insiders revealed that in the locker room after the game, Mancini scolded Balotelli, but Balotelli didn't say anything, but just stared at Mancini, as if expressing dissatisfaction.

The British media collectively pointed the finger at the Manchester City coach, believing that he was too doting on Balotelli.

The Guardian even made a constructive opinion: to loan Balotelli to Manchester City.

Coach Fang Jue is good at tuning problem boys. Look at Bentner's rebirth in Aston Villa. Maybe Balotelli will be saved when he goes to Aston Villa.

Fang Jue directly declined: Our forward line is enough, Balotelli is excellent, but every one of our players is also excellent.

Fang Jue ignored the media's noise.

However, Balotelli's agent Raiola also called Fang Jue specifically to ask about the possibility of Balotelli joining Aston Villa.

Fang Jue refused without any hesitation.

What do you think of me as a master? A problematic child correction master?

Fang Jue thought about it and really couldn't afford it. Bentner is a personality problem, but he is not a lunatic. What is Balotelli?

Setting off fireworks in your own bathroom?

It ignited its own house, and the fire trucks were all dispatched.

Is this something that a normal person can do?

God of Ba?

Can't afford it.

Really can't afford it.
