Six hundred and forty-seventh road trip on
Before the match against Liverpool, in the distant China, the most important festival of the year, the Spring Festival, but this traditional festival actually has little to do with Li Feng now. In Europe, Christmas is the biggest show. As for the Spring Festival, well, they don’t actually know. [< ?[
Manchester Chinatown is very famous, but Li Feng did not go to join in the fun. If Yoona or others were by his side, Li Feng wouldn't mind going to join in the fun, but now he is alone, it's really pitiful to go out.
After an ordinary Spring Festival, the whole Manchester City team came to Liverpool as scheduled. In the next week, Manchester City will need to play two games at Liverpool, one is the League Cup and the traditional British giant Liverpool.
The other game is the league, the 23rd round of the UK League, Manchester City will visit Goodison Park Stadium and challenge another Liverpool team, Everton, away.
The last time he was away from Anfield, he got a draw. This time, Van Basten had a determination to win. Although Kompany was suspended on the defense line and Boateng was injured, making Manchester City's defense line look extremely empty.
But at least Manchester City's midfield and frontcourt are in a perfect state, but no matter how perfect the midfield is, it cannot withstand a fragile defense line. Li Feng has already experienced this when he was in Bayern Munich.
Iron Trees bloomed. In the 29th minute, Manchester City scored a record away game. Li Feng held the ball in the middle to attract the defense and passed the ball to Silva. The latter broke through the side and passed the baseline back. Manchester City midfielder De Jong didn't know when he had already rushed outside the Liverpool penalty area.
After receiving Silva's pass, De Jong directly drew a shocking world wave with his right foot. The ball went straight to the dead corner of the goal, and Manchester City broke the deadlock on the court.
This is also De Jong's first goal this season, and even his second goal in the last five seasons, it is also his second goal for Manchester City. It can be said that De Jong's goal is even more rare than the goal from Lescott in the last game.
As a pure defensive midfielder in Manchester City's lineup, De Jong is definitely the player with the least chance of attacking from top to bottom in Manchester City. It often has difficulty in having a single shot in several games.
"Man~~~ I think you should treat you," although De Jong's salary can only be ranked among the middle and lower levels among Manchester City, he is a rich man. There is no way, who can tell him that he is good at investing.
It is always a happy thing to take the lead, so De Jong did not refuse. After all, it is indeed rare for him to score, let alone such a wonderful world wave.
However, Manchester City's happiness did not last long. Ten minutes later, Liverpool tied the score, and the goal for Liverpool was captain Gerrard, although it was a penalty kick.
Manchester City was quite helpless about this goal conceding. Savage's performance in the last game was really a mistake, so Savage did not arrange for this game to appear, but instead let Richards return to the middle.
This penalty was given by Richards, but it had little to do with Richards. Liverpool's deputy inserted a long shot from the back, and the ball finally hit Richards' feet and then bounced onto his arm.
This was completely a passive handball, but the referee Dodd didn't think so. Seeing the referee's decision, Richards was almost crying with grievance.
Van Basten even directly approached the fourth official, "Sir, this is not an active handball, this should not be a penalty kick." Faced with the excited Van Basten, the fourth official could only comfort him with kind words.
However, all of this is useless. No matter how wronged Chaz feels in his heart, no matter how excited Van Basten is on the sidelines, no matter how excited Manchester City players find the referee to argue.
Manchester City lost to the penalty kick again, four games and four penalty kicks, and suddenly, many people couldn't help but think about a question in their minds, will there be a red card again in this game?
Gerald was very calm. Facing Joe Hart, Gerald chose to push the ball to the right side of the goal, and Joe Hart's save direction was completely opposite to the ball's flight defense line.
This is also the last score of the first half. It is worth mentioning that Liverpool's entire first half was not ugly. It has to be said that Gerrard's improvement in Liverpool's midfield is quite obvious.
Manchester City took the lead in making substitutions in the second half, Balotelli replaced Barry, and Manchester City changed to a 442 formation, with Silva and Adam and Johnson on both sides, Dzeko and Balotelli on the front line, and Li Feng and De Jong in the middle.
This substitution quickly achieved results. Under the disruption of Balotelli, Liverpool's defense was in chaos, and Dzeko helped Manchester City score the second goal of the game.
Kolarov inserted from the back, and under Silva's cover, Manchester City's left-back successfully entered the bottom line, which is also the usual cooperation between Manchester City on the wing.
Kolarov's footwork was quite outstanding. This pass accurately found Dzeko in the penalty area. Because Balotelli's appearance and half of his defensive attention were taken, Dzeko's shot seemed quite easy.
The score has been rewritten again, but the English League Cup has no away goal advantage, so Manchester City is just tying the big score. If you want to successfully enter the final, Manchester City still needs to expand its advantage.
However, football games are not something you can do whatever you want. Although Manchester City attacked like a storm in the next time, it was still a little bit behind the goal.
This little bit became the most deadly little for Manchester City because they were killed, which was really a turn. In the last game, they had just won Tottenham Hotspur, but they didn't expect that they would be killed in the next game.
In the 87th minute of the game, Liverpool attacked and Gerrard got the ball. As the only world-class star in Liverpool's lineup, as long as Gerrard appears, he will be the most threatening player in Liverpool. No one will doubt this or look down on this.
But I just don’t know what Daglish thought. It can be seen from these two games that Gerald’s role in playing, but in the league, Daglish insists on not being willing to use Gerald.
Gerald's ball attack attracted the attention of Li Feng and De Jong. Then the Red Army passed the ball with a diagonal pass and sent the ball to the feet of Kuyt who was retreating.
Kuyt did not complete the turn because he was following Richards, pushing the side diagonally, Glenn Johnson inserted high, and Downing went straight down and pulled Sabaretta away.
Glenn Johnson cut into the penalty area, Bellamy came to pick up, and the most exciting scene of the game was born. The two hit the wall in a continuous small area of Manchester City's penalty area to tear open the defense line, and even crossed Joe Hart. In the end, Bellamy pushed the ball into an empty goalkeeper and scored 2:2.
In stoppage time, Manchester City fans once again focused on Li Feng. However, Li Feng was not the guy wearing underwear, nor was God's illegitimate son, so it was not right~~ It should be the illegitimate son of the Jade Emperor. Although he got a unique system in the world, he did not have the ability.
In the end, the game ended with a draw of 2:2, while Liverpool eliminated Manchester City with a total score of 3:2 with a small victory in the last game and advanced to the League Cup finals.
Chapter completed!
