The 34-year-old Everton captain Phil Jagielka felt that he was so unlucky today. Facing the loach-like Silva and Aguero, he was confused by two fouls. This season, Jagielka
Card's contract year, these two penalties made him feel old.
Jagielka was born in Manchester, but he is of Polish origin. His parents are pure Polish immigrants. Jagielka was instilled in authentic Polish culture by his father since he was a child. Only Chopin was played on the gramophone, and only Polish was allowed to be spoken at home.
Eleven years ago, Jagielka, who was famous for playing for Sheffield United in the English Championship, attracted the attention of the Polish national team and invited him to play for his motherland. Unexpectedly, Jagielka not only refused decisively, but also claimed in front of the media that he would never join the team.
I will not take my wife and children to Poland.
Jagielka said: I am a pure Englishman. Even if the England team never recruits me, I will not join Poland.
Perhaps it was his loyalty that moved the Football Association, and he was recruited by the England team for the 2012 and 2014 tournaments. Especially for the 2014 World Cup in Brazil, Jagielka partnered with Cahill and was England's main central defender.
At the World Cup in Brazil, England finished last in the group with 2 losses and a draw, failing to qualify.
In the penalty kick before the end of the first half, it was Stekelenberg who saved Everton and Jagielka. The scene reappeared in the 70th minute, and Jagielka looked expectantly at Stekelenberg again.
I hope he can reject Aguero just like he rejected De Bruyne.
Sergio Aguero has been even more depressed than Jagielka recently. He returned to the national team's starting lineup, but played like shit in two games and missed a point-earning penalty.
Messi did not play in the game, and Aguero's poor performance made him the scapegoat for Argentina's three-game defeat. The media criticized him as a dog. In fact, even if Messi was on the court, no one would say that Argentina did not play well.
He also had someone else take the blame.
Aguero is not jealous of the special treatment given to his friend Messi, but he still feels it is unfair.
What makes Akun feel most depressed is that his small complaints to the media in the national team only offended Guardiola.
Guardiola is a strict coach who controls the world, the ground, and the air in the middle. He is accustomed to controlling the team and the locker room to the extreme. In order to strictly enforce team discipline, Guardiola first announced several regulations when he came to Manchester City this year.
.
Weird hairstyles are not allowed! Just comb it and spray it with hairspray and it's over. No one in Manchester wants to put animal shapes or landscape paintings on their hair. The colorful melons you dye will make you lick them clean.
No pizza or juice is allowed in the locker room. Except for sports energy bars and water, no other food or drink can be brought into the locker room.
The new official has three things to do when he takes office, and no one will get in trouble with Guardiola. Moreover, most other teams have similar regulations. Guardiola is just a little more strict, and the players just accept it.
But the day after being tied with the Celtics 3:3, Guardiola made another new move, which made many players turn their backs and pout.
——Guardiola cut off the wifi in the locker room at the training base.
The dressing room of Manchester City's training center is on the third underground floor. There is no mobile phone signal there. Once the wifi is disconnected, the players will be isolated from the outside world when they enter.
There are many social experts in the Manchester City team, especially Aguero, who are keen on posting information on social media. They are used to picking up their mobile phones and sending tweets during breaks. Now I don’t think about it anymore.
Inside the Etihad Stadium, there is also no 3G service for mobile phones, which means that once the wifi is cut off, Manchester City players can only focus on training.
During the Argentina team's World Cup preliminaries, Aguero talked about Guardiola's wifi ban in an interview: "The dressing room and massage area are completely disconnected from the outside world. I don't know who he has caught by the basin.
Or playing on his phone while getting a massage, but he did turn off the internet."
At the end of the international match day, Guardiola called Aguero over as soon as he returned to Manchester City.
"Do you have any problem with my decision?"
Aguero was so panicked that he quickly explained to Guardiola that the media had taken the quote out of context and that he was just introducing the new atmosphere of Manchester City in the new season to the Argentinian media. He swore that he was absolutely not dissatisfied.
As a close friend of Messi and an authentic yerba mate brother, Boss Mei has already said hello to Aguero: Guardiola cannot be messed with, he is a cruel and petty person.
Aguero is also 28 years old, and some things no longer need to be taught by others. Guardiola has a "notorious" reputation, and his team management is actually much more extreme than Mourinho.
Except for Zhuo Yang, no one has special privileges in the Manchester City dressing room, including Aguero. The relationship between Zhuo Yang and Guardiola is more like a collaborator than a traditional relationship between a coach and a player.
Aguero knows this well, and he doesn't dare to be jealous of Zhuoyang, just like he doesn't envy Messi in the Argentine national team.
Zhuoyang has been keeping a low profile since he landed in Manchester, but everyone knows that he has a unique identity and his significance to Manchester City is not limited to the stadium.
Aguero knew very well that everyone on the team, including Guardiola, was waiting for the day when Zhuo Yang would give orders on the court. Although everyone didn't say it, they were all looking forward to it.
From putting the football on the white spot to setting up the running distance, so much flashed through Aguero's mind in just two or three seconds.
——Zhuo Yang has never missed a penalty kick. I won’t miss it again today, right?
This was the last thought that crossed Aguero's mind before he shot out.
The same quick push to the right, the same half-high ball aimed at the upper right corner, Aguero and Ding Ding were also blocked by Stekelenberg who jumped sideways in the first half.
The only difference is that Stekelenberg used both hands to block Tintin, while Aguero used one hand.
There was a sigh in the City Stadium, and Zhuo Yang also sighed secretly.
This is the third penalty kick Aguero has missed in a row, and the fourth penalty kick he has missed for Manchester City this season. It has only been two months since the season started, and this statistic is quite disgraceful.
Guardiola was so anxious on the sidelines that he replaced German teenager Sane with Spanish winger Nolito a minute later. Nolito was the last attacker on the bench.
After entering the field, Nolito ran along the wing towards the frontcourt. After entering the 40-meter area, he cut diagonally into the Everton penalty area. At this time, Silva's cross from the other side happened to be air-attacked.
.
Jagielka only focused on struggling with Aguero, but completely let go of Nolito behind him. Jagielka and Aguero both fell down, and Nolito comfortably shook his head on the line of the small penalty area and hit the goal.
The football passed Stekelenberg's hasty fingertips and hit the crossbar hard.
Two penalty kicks were missed and one goal was a must-goal. Manchester City is not Dayu. They failed to score after three attempts and were unable to move the world. They could only lament their luck and be far away from home.
We can only accept the outcome of a 0:1 defeat at home.
The ball possession rate was 72.7%, the shooting ratio was 19:3, the corner kick was 11:1, and the passing rate was 650:253. Guardiola’s gorgeous changes took all the advantages on the scene. However, Koeman defeated him 1:0 and Manchester City got
Only two consecutive losses in the league.
"Niang Xipi, this is football." Ferguson was defending Guardiola.
Krauchen said: "Football is very unreasonable. It is not unusual to win but not score. But at this rate, Manchester City will be in trouble when we go to Barcelona in five days."
"Football doesn't happen overnight." Zhuo Yang said: "The season is still early."
Chapter completed!
