"Mahrez wasted the opportunity created by Chu Zheng after he passed several people during his long-distance attack!"
"Mahrez actually hit the ball very well, with good angles and power, but Joe Hart seems to be in particularly good shape today!"
"Having said that, do you feel that Chu Zheng has made great progress in dribbling skills recently?" Fan Zhiyi suddenly asked with a smile, "Look at his breakthrough just now, every change of direction and pass were stuck at an almost perfect timing.
superior."
Zhang Lu nodded, laughed, and said: "Especially whoever passes the ball, the timing is perfect. If you go faster, the ball may hit Otamendi's feet directly. If you go slower, it may be hit by Otamendi."
Intercepting, it’s really a person of great skill who is bold and bold!”
In the coaching area on the sidelines, Pellegrini was still in shock.
Even though he had guessed before the game that Leicester City, who were playing away games, would use their best defensive counterattack tactics, the counterattack speed just now was a bit too scary.
In front of the Manchester City goal, Joe Hart roared after getting up after successfully saving the ball.
At this moment, this unlucky goalkeeper, who is often reduced to the backdrop of world waves, was particularly excited.
The last time he was so excited was during the quarter-final Champions League match against Barcelona in the 2014-15 season.
In that game, he defeated Barcelona's MSN combination and immediately shut himself down. At this moment, he seemed to have found the wonderful feeling in that game.
Soon, Leicester City took a corner kick from the right.
Chu Zheng took off in front of the penalty area and shook his head to attack the goal. However, although he hit the ball, he was unable to hold it down. The ball eventually missed the post and flew out of the baseline.
Since then, Leicester City's offensive has come to an end.
In the following time, Manchester City continued to control the ball and attack hard.
They knew that if the formation was too high, Leicester City would counterattack, but there was no way. This is the Etihad Stadium, their home ground. They must attack, must win, and the fans must give an explanation.
With continued strong attack, Manchester City soon threatened Leicester City's goal.
In the 9th minute of the game, Sabaret picked up the ball from the right side of Leicester City's penalty area.
Seeing that Albrighton was stuck in his position in front of him, and was obviously wary of his breakthrough from the wing, Zabaleta chose to pass the ball diagonally back to David Silva in the ribs.
As soon as David Silva got the ball, Kanter, who was guarding Yaya Toure in the right rib area at the top of the arc, directly pushed out.
But as one of the few top midfielders in today's football, Silva's foot skills can beat Kante in seconds, and even his physical flexibility is not worse than Kante.
Facing Kanter, he moved his left foot to the left and then quickly followed up laterally.
But Kanter also reacted very quickly, quickly followed the defense horizontally, kept blocking Silva, and even followed the trend to follow up and perform a death entanglement.
Seeing that there was no way to get rid of Kanter, Silva turned his back to Leicester City's penalty area.
The moment he blocked Kanter from behind, he suddenly spiked the ball and turned 360 degrees to the left, causing Kanter to lose his balance and fall to his knees.
After successfully getting rid of Kanter's harassment, David Silva quickly sent a kick to the ribs.
At the moment of passing the ball, Sterling in front of Huth quickly completed a turn and overtook directly from the left side of Huth with super starting speed.
Outside the upper right corner of the small penalty area, Sterling, who threw Huth behind, caught up with the ball and hit it with his foot.
But Schmeichel was also in very good shape today.
Facing the incoming ball, Schmeichel struck quickly, and when Sterling shot, he directly put his body in front of the ball, just in time to firmly hold the ball from Sterling's feet.
"Manchester City's attack on the right wing, led by David Silva, has slowly revealed its offensive power!"
"Leicester City's two central defenders, Huth and Morgan, are actually afraid of this kind of through ball!"
"Yes, both of them are slow to turn around. Facing small and quick forwards like Sterling and Aguero, even if they are prepared, it will be difficult for them to keep up!"
"Indeed, Leicester City should pay attention to this kind of penetrating ball in the ribs, especially David Silva!"
"Kante was a little reckless when he made the tackle just now!"
"David Silva, a Spanish technical midfielder, is not afraid of you grabbing him!" Zhang Lu said with a cheerful smile.
On the sidelines, Pellegrini saw the team's attack and a smile appeared on his face. He finally saw what he wanted to see.
But soon Pellegrini stopped laughing.
In the 14th minute of the game, Schmeichel took a goal kick.
The ball was pushed back to the center circle. Seeing Yaya Toure attack, Chu Zheng did not stop the ball. He jumped up and passed the ball to Huth on the center line of defense.
Huth didn't stop the ball and passed the ball directly to the frontcourt.
Albrighton removed the ball from the wing and turned around to face the center.
Seeing Zabaleta approaching fiercely, he tapped his left foot forward to the right and directly started to break through with the ball laterally.
But before he ran a meter, he made a long pass with his right foot.
At the moment of passing the ball, Vardy, who was between Otamendi and Demichelis, just completed a ball-free running motion after returning the ball, and successfully reversed the offside.
Vardy's starting speed directly reduced Demichelis behind him to ashes in seconds.
The next second, Vardy jumped up to unload the ball on the left side of the penalty spot in the penalty area.
But he didn't stop completely when he first touched the ball, and the ball jumped towards Joe Hart on the end line of the small penalty area.
But Vardy quickly followed up and hit Joe Hart before he could catch the ball.
As a result, Joe Hart, who was in an explosive state, quickly opened his arms, and the ball hit him directly in the middle and bounced back.
The Achilles' heel was hit hard, but Joe Hart didn't fall down. Instead, he continued to press forward against the ball. He fell down again and blocked Shinji Okazaki's follow-up shot in front of Otamendi.
Seeing the ball being cleared by Kolarov, he fell down holding his crotch.
Joe Hart's desperate and brilliant blocks won the respect of the nearly 30,000 Manchester City fans present, and the Etihad Stadium burst into warm applause.
In the LeTV Sports live broadcast room, seeing Leicester City's sudden attack, Zhan Jun and the other two people also kept exclaiming.
"Manchester City's defense today must have been affected by conceding the ball too early. The defense looks a little distracted!" Zhang Lu said with a smile.
"It's Demichelis again, Vardy slipped away from him, but he just didn't react and looked a little slower!" Zhan Jun was also speechless.
In the coaching area on the sidelines, Pellegrini was also extremely dissatisfied with the team's defensive performance.
Especially Demichelis, this is not the first time.
He seemed a little distracted when he lost the ball at the beginning, allowing Chu Zheng to squeeze past easily.
But there is no way.
Manchester City defense general Kompany's injury has not fully recovered yet.
If Demichelis is not used, then Pellegrini will have to use U21 players.
At this moment, Pellegrini regretted his greed.
If he hadn't been hesitant and not given up on the FA Cup and EFL Cup in time, perhaps the team would not have suffered large-scale injuries due to the drag of the fourth-line battle.
