Chapter 373 Turn around gracefully! Watch the world intoxicated!
Soon, under the urging of referee Rizzoli, the Celtics ended their somewhat crazy celebration.
After the game restarted, the Celtics, whose morale had soared, directly pressed Manchester City in the backcourt and formed a wave of offensive climax.
In the 5th minute of the game, in the right rib area of the center circle, Otamendi retreated in time to stop the Celtics' long pass from the backcourt.
But faced with the pressing pressure of Moussa Dembélé who rushed forward in the blink of an eye, Otamendi did not have much time to handle the ball calmly and had to quickly kick the ball forward.
As a result, the ball was intercepted by Scott Brown, and then the Celtics quickly launched a counterattack in the midfield and frontcourt.
Fernandinho retreated in time and pushed Scott Brown to the wing.
Zabaleta found the right time and shoveled directly.
As a result, Scott Brown took a step faster and kicked the ball to Sinclair on the sideline, and then was tripped.
Suddenly there was another free kick from the frontcourt.
This time Clichy learned his lesson and kept an eye on Celtics right back Lustig from the right rib area at the top of the key.
But the surprise still came.
The penalty kick landed in the area on the right side. Kolarov, Fernandinho, and Clichy were three on three.
But the ball was still tipped by Lustig, who was 189cm tall.
Behind a few people, Moussa Dembele resisted Otamendi behind him and took the ball with his back.
He used the inside of his right thigh and knee to lead the ball to the left side of his body, then quickly turned around, raised his right foot and hit it.
At the moment of shooting, Clichy arrived in time and also swung the ball with his right foot.
The next second, there were two bangs!
Clichy did make the first clearance, but the ball he kicked was blocked by Moussa Dembele's right foot.
Suddenly the ball turned into a white light and headed towards the goal.
"fool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Witnessing this unexpected refraction being pushed out of the baseline by Bravo's hands, Celtic Park suddenly erupted into a huge exclamation!
"Bravo has done a great job!"
"This position was chosen very accurately. I raised my hand and pushed the ball out that was about to hit the inside of the post!" Zhan Jun and Zhang Lu were also frightened by this accident. "This is a world-class save! The reaction was too fast.
Got it!"
"What's wrong with Manchester City's defense today? Accidents happen frequently!" Zhang Lu shook her head and laughed.
After finishing speaking, Zhang Lu continued: "From these few minutes, you can see how important Chu Zheng is to Manchester City now!"
"Today Chu Zheng came to De Bruyne's position, leaving the midfield to David Silva and Fernandinho to control."
"Guardiola's idea is correct. He moved David Silva's position back a little, and at the same time asked Fernandinho to protect him behind him, and let Silva be responsible for transporting the frontcourt.
Cannonballs.”
"But if he wants David Silva to also display Chu Zheng's powerful rhythm control ability and efficient offensive organization efficiency, this would be, well, a bit too difficult!"
"Yes!" Zhan Jun nodded, "Judging from the past few minutes of the game, Fernandinho and David Silva were a bit messed up by the Celtics and have not yet fully entered the game state.
In addition, the Celtics' tactics of direct long passes from the backcourt to the frontcourt and high-position pressing were very good, which resulted in David Silva and Fernandinho being unable to control the rhythm of the game."
On the sidelines, Guardiola looked expressionless, but he was a little worried inside.
He felt that the team seemed to be a little out of shape today.
The problem he was worried about some time ago seems to have come true for the players.
For a time, Guardiola began to quickly conceive in his mind several situations that Manchester City might encounter, and began to think about how he should respond and adjust when these situations occur.
On the field, in the right corner kick area, Celtic midfielder Rogic took the corner kick and the ball went straight to the back point.
Outside the upper left corner of the small penalty area, Svichenko, who is 185cm tall and unmarked, rushed in and quickly rushed to the landing point to take off.
Just when he was filled with joy and ready to swing his head directly to attack the goal, Sviatchenko, who took off first, suddenly felt his vision dim. Then before he could shake his head, the ball that had not yet completely fallen was rushed out of the small penalty area diagonally.
Chu Zheng, who jumped nearly 90cm high, turned his head behind him.
At this moment, Svichenko opened his mouth slightly and looked at Chu Zheng, who was several heads taller than him, with a horrified look in his eyes.
"Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Seeing the exaggerated ground clearance after Chu Zheng's run-up, many Celtics fans in the stands were in a collective uproar. They were all dumbfounded. Everyone felt as if they were watching an NBA game.
In the next five minutes, Manchester City's situation became worse and worse, and they were suppressed by the Celtics. The offense really could not make it past halftime.
Although he could steal the ball in the backcourt every time, before he could pick up the speed, he would be intercepted and counterattacked by the Celtics' crazy frontcourt press.
This scene made many people who followed the game feel extremely incredible.
Manchester City fans looked extremely helpless, thinking of the media's evaluation of Manchester City as "an expert in civil war, an outsider in foreign war".
But this is the Champions League.
On this world's top stage, nothing is absolute or impossible.
Everything is possible!
Chu Zheng felt a little uncomfortable playing during this time.
His responsibility today is to be responsible for the two aspects of counterattack promotion and frontcourt offensive organization.
But the problem is that the ball is constantly being counterattacked, and there are very few opportunities to successfully navigate the Celtics' pressing range, and it simply cannot reach his feet.
Soon Chu Zheng made a decision.
He no longer rushes forward immediately when the team gets the ball, waiting to be passed.
Instead, he stayed in the midfield to help Fernandinho and David Silva control the ball.
Guardiola was very pleased and satisfied when he saw Chu Zheng's initiative to seek change on the sidelines.
This is exactly what he wanted to see.
Chu Zheng has never let Guardiola down when it comes to analyzing the game situation in real time and adopting the correct response strategy. He is always so timely. This is the midfielder he wants.
Soon, Manchester City, who changed into three midfielders with 433, controlled the rhythm of the game.
Not only that, Manchester City's offensive also gradually emerged.
Starting from the 11th minute of the game, when Chu Zheng found that the rhythm was under control, he began to plan an attack.
At 11 minutes and 43 seconds of the game, Chu Zheng found an opportunity.
After getting the ball at the kick-off point in the center circle, Chu Zheng saw that there was no one in front of him, so he quickly rushed up.
After crossing the arc of the center circle, Chu Zheng quickly shot the ball forward before the two Celtic players on the left and right came over.
At the top of the arc, Aguero and Chu Zheng formed an excellent running understanding. They retreated three meters to get the ball with their backs, and directly fished out Kolo Toure behind them.
During the process of stopping the ball, Aguero completed the turn without a moment's delay.
After turning around, he saw Silva on the left rib running behind Kolo Toure in front of him, and he directly kicked the ball through.
But this pass is slightly more powerful.
Before the penalty kick, Sviatchenko made a timely defense and stretched out his foot to poke the ball out of the baseline.
David Silva suffered from short legs again.
If it were David Silva who had speed when he was young, Svichenko would have no choice but to follow behind and eat dust.
It's a pity that time is a ruthless butcher's knife, and David Silva is also old.
Although the attack was unsuccessful, anyone who was not blind could see that Manchester City, whose defense was in danger in the first ten minutes, had stabilized the situation.
Next, with this corner kick, Manchester City pressed Celtic inside and outside the penalty area for the first time and attacked for three to four minutes.
Chu Zheng and David Silva took turns organizing offenses outside the penalty area. Through the combination of wing and center, the offensive method of shifting the defense to the weak side threatened the Celtics' goal one after another.
In the 15th minute of the game, Chu Zheng passed the ball from the left rib to the left.
David Silva went down and made a direct cross.
Fernandinho took off from behind the goal, but was a little short, and the ball allowed Svichenko to head the ball to the wing.
Sterling took the ball outside the upper corner of the penalty area and passed the ball directly, passing Sinclair very beautifully.
After catching up with the ball, Sterling again swept the ball low in front of the goal.
In front of the right end line of the small penalty area, Aguero got in front of Scott Brown to grab the point, fell directly to the ground and shot.
But Sterling's cross was too fast and he missed it and let the ball slip past.
Nolito in the middle may have been influenced by Aguero, but he also didn't touch the ball.
The ball came to the back point.
David Silva gets the ball.
But seeing that Aguero hadn't gotten up yet and no one was following in the middle, he missed the ball, turned around, caught up with the ball, and quickly passed it back to the left rib area at the top of the arc.
After receiving the ball, Fernandinho continued to pass the ball diagonally back to the top of the arc from a position 256 meters forward.
At this time, Chu Zheng was already in Aguero's position. He was on the right front of the penalty spot, following the Celtic's advanced defense line.
Seeing the pace of Kolarov following up in the middle, Chu Zheng quickly deduced that this guy was going to pass the ball directly to him.
The next second, Chu Zheng was just getting ready to catch the ball when Kolarov passed the ball.
Chu Zheng's left and right sides saw the ball coming straight towards Chu Zheng. Lustig and Sviatchenko quickly pinched Chu Zheng from left to right.
But nothing on the court is faster than the ball.
In the blink of an eye, the ball touched the turf and came to Chu Zheng.
Many Celtic fans in the stands laughed when they saw Kolarov's direct pass.
They didn't think Chu Zheng could escape the defense of two players in such a small space.
The same goes for De Bruyne, who is recuperating at home in Manchester.
De Bruyne felt that Kolarov was a little anxious, and the ball should continue to go to the right and hit the Celtics' defensive weak side.
However, in the next moment, Chu Zheng spread his arms to maintain balance. Before the space behind him was completely blocked by Lustig, he stretched out his right foot, aimed at the ball and rubbed it with the inside of his foot. The ball suddenly jumped upwards.
He got up and flew past Svichenko on the back left side of Chu Zheng.
At the same time, Chu Zheng turned to the right and squeezed past Lustig.
"This is?!!!"
"This is?!!!!!!!!!"
In the LeTV Sports live broadcast room, Zhan Jun and Zhang Lu saw Chu Zheng and Qiu going their separate ways, and their eyes instantly widened.
In the stands around the scene, Celtic and Manchester City fans who came to the scene were also dumbfounded, and everyone's eyes were filled with shock.
"Bergkamp!"
"Bergkamp!"
"Bergkamp!"
"..."
At this moment, the dashing figure of the Dutchman from back then flashed through the minds of countless people.
On the sidelines, Guardiola saw Chu Zheng, a dashing man, passing the ball, and he covered the braised egg on his head with both hands.
Next to Guardiola, Rogers was also dumbfounded.
On the court, Chu Zheng, who turned right and successfully broke through, successfully met the ball.
Facing the oncoming Celtic goalkeeper Craig Gordon, Chu Zheng stepped in front of the ball and flicked it with his right foot. The ball flew over the head of Craig Gordon and fell straight into the penalty area.
.
Witnessing the ball crossing the goal line and hitting the side netting, at this moment, everyone who witnessed the goal felt short of breath and the blood in their bodies was rushing.
At the moment of the goal, Celtic Park, which can accommodate more than 60,000 fans, seemed to suddenly become quiet.
A second later, cheers and exclamations mixed together, sweeping towards every corner of the stadium like a stormy wave.
This goal is an ultimate visual enjoyment for all fans!
"The ball has been scored!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Zhan Jun's hoarse voice sounded in the live broadcast room.
“Chu Zheng’s first goal in the Champions League!!!!!!!!!”
"Another goal worthy of being selected for Puskas selection!!!" Zhang Lu also shouted, with great excitement on her face. This kind of goal is really a test of one's heart.
Inside and outside the penalty area, Aguero, David Silva and the Celtic players were all dumbfounded when they saw Chu Zheng's seemingly familiar goal.
How can people actually live like this?
In front of the goal, after Chu Zheng scored a goal, he grinned widely, opened his arms and ran wildly, and soon a group of tails followed him!
On the sidelines, Guardiola was still holding his braised eggs, looking left and right, with an incredible smile on his face.
In Manchester, De Bruyne, who was sitting on the sofa in the living room, was also dumbfounded. He stared at the TV blankly, not realizing that he had put a pacifier into the nostrils of his son in his arms.
“I bought it!!!”
"Kevin, what are you doing?"
When Michelle walked to the living room, she saw this dumbfounding scene and quickly snatched the several-month-old Mason from De Bruyne's arms.
