In the blink of an eye, Manchester City took a corner kick from the right. This time, they did not play short or long.
The ball was driven directly into the penalty area by De Bruyne.
Chu Zheng, who was drowned in Everton's tall crowd, relied on his super physical fitness to jump up tenaciously.
However, under Everton's heavy marking, Chu Zheng was eventually disturbed and did not hit the center of the ball completely, causing the ball to go over the crossbar and fly out of the baseline.
Although the goal was not scored, thousands of Manchester City fans who came to the scene expressed their approval of Chu Zheng's header with warm applause.
They have seen the performance of Chu Zheng and De Bruyne. The two have jointly planned or created opportunities with direct passes more than ten times, and they are impeccable.
After a while, Everton pressed forward, preparing to take the goal kick directly to the midfield.
There was a muffled bang!
The ball went straight to the right half of the center circle.
The landing point was in the front rib area on the left side of the midfield circle of Manchester City's half.
On the landing point, the Belgian Warcraft and the Cote d'Ivoire Warcraft duel.
The little monster Lukaku was not afraid of Yaya Toure at all. With his youth and abundant physical strength, Lukaku easily squeezed in front of Yaya Toure.
But Lukaku did not touch the ball after taking off.
Yaya Toure's sight behind him was also completely blocked by Lukaku's tall body, and he could not see the ball at all.
The next second, the ball fell and hit Toure's right waist directly, then bounced off the ground and jumped towards the middle of the right side.
Immediately, the two started chasing the ball horizontally at the same time.
But Ross Barkley, who followed up in the middle, was not slow either and quickly turned around and went straight for the ball.
In the blink of an eye, the three of them decided the winner, and Yaya Toure's long legs were the first to touch the ball.
He picked the ball forward to the left, but Barry, who was following up in the center circle, intercepted the ball and passed it to Lukaku.
Facing the incoming ball, Lukaku turned sideways and smashed the ball to his right with his left foot, then quickly completed his turn.
Seeing Miralas four meters away in the middle in front of him ambushing Otamendi and Stones, Lukaku swung his leg and kicked the ball through.
At the same time, Otamendi and Stones turned and retreated at the same time.
But after Stones turned around, he did not run in front of Miralas who was running towards the ribs on the right side of the arc. Instead, he ran across to the left behind Miralas.
Seeing that the ball was coming, Stones quickly fell to the ground and stretched out his feet to intercept it.
In the end, he was able to block the ball, but he kicked the ball towards the top of the arc with his left foot.
Zabaleta was right next to Stones who fell to the ground. When he saw that the ball was not clear, he quickly rushed over.
At the same time, Sagna, who rushed back along Manchester City's right rib, was also desperately leaning towards the ball.
But these two old men just couldn't outrun Ross Barkley, who was between them and two positions behind them.
Ross Barkley rushed to the ball, and just before Zabaleta and Sagna completely pinched him, he didn't stop the ball and directly hit a diagonal pass to the right.
On the sidelines, Guardiola looked at a player walking in the right rib area at the top of the arc with an extremely gloomy expression.
Seeing Miralas take the ball at the intersection of the right penalty arc and the end line of the penalty area, then enter the penalty area, raise his right foot and hit the far corner, he directly smashed the mineral water in his hand on the turf.
Suddenly water splashed everywhere.
"The ball went in!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
“Incredible!!!”
“Absolutely incredible!!!!!!!!!”
"Oh my God!!!!" Zhan Jun looked shocked in LeTV's live broadcast room, "This is Everton's first shot in the second half, and it's scored again!!!"
Next to him, Zhang Lu also had a strange look on her face, feeling that Everton's luck and shooting efficiency today were a bit outrageous.
Not counting those blocked shots, Everton only had two shots, and they all went in. What a magical goal conversion rate.
"I don't know if Stones' tackle and interception is a wise choice, but Clichy is definitely one of the culprits." Zhang Lu, who was angry for Chu Zheng, shook her head and said in a tone of hatred that iron cannot be broken into steel.
.
"Yes, Stones tackled and intercepted. Although he could not clear the ball far, after he lost his defensive position, Clichy was in the right rib area at the top of the arc, but this guy was indifferent. He clearly saw it.
I had the opportunity to fill in for Stones, but he was walking." Zhan Jun also looked surprised after roaring a few times.
Hearing Zhan Jun's words, Zhang Lu nodded, shook her head, pointed her sword at Bravo, and said: "Bravo also has a problem with his position selection in front of the goal, completely exposing the far corner to Miralas."
"If we really need to be held accountable for this ball, Yaya Toure cannot escape the blame. The ball was broken from under his feet, which then caused a chain reaction."
“But there’s no point in pursuing blame!”
"Yes!!"
"Klich, Stones didn't make up for it immediately after he fell to the ground. Instead, he went up to grab the ball after Miraras led the ball into the penalty area. What kind of brain circuit is this?" Zhan Jun was puzzled.
Its solution.
In the penalty area, Stones acted a little excited and yelled at Clichy several times.
But amidst the fierce cheers of the home fans at the scene, you couldn't hear what he shouted from the broadcast footage, but it was clear from his actions that Stones was very angry.
Chu Zheng stood at the top of the arc and watched silently. He said nothing and had nothing to say. He was almost used to it.
At this moment, Chu Zheng was also holding his breath in his heart. He didn't believe they couldn't score a goal today.
As for the Manchester City fans, they don't believe it either.
However, the cruel reality is right in front of you. You have no choice but to believe it. It is not up to you at all.
After conceding another goal, Manchester City quickly recovered from the chaos by relying on their tenacious mental attributes and Chu Zheng's coordination.
But the continued offensive still yielded no results.
Chu Zheng and De Bruyne worked hard to create opportunities for the team, but Aguero and Sterling also worked hard to squander opportunities.
Soon, the nightmare came, and fate dealt a fatal blow to Manchester City.
In the 68th minute of the game, Everton won another goal kick.
After the team's formation pressed up, Everton goalkeeper Robres threw the ball in front of him and pumped the ball directly towards the midfield.
In the right rib position of the thirty-meter area in the front court, Lukaku faced Stones this time.
But Stones' judgment was faster and more accurate. He took the lead directly from Lukaku and pushed the ball to the rib area on the left side of the center circle.
On the second landing point, Sterling was pressed by Davis and pushed the ball to the center line of the wing.
After Holgate crossed from the ribs to his own right, he directly passed a long ball from the wing and hit Manchester City behind.
On the wing, although Clichy was outplayed by Koeman with his speed, Stones retreated to the right rib at the top of the key and quickly pulled over to cover for him.
Outside the upper right corner of the penalty area, Stones rushed to the ball first, followed by Coleman.
Seeing Coleman coming up quickly, Stones used his left foot to make a direct clearance.
As a result, the ball was kicked out and hit Coleman's chest at close range. Then it flew past Stones, bounced horizontally into the penalty area, and landed at the feet of Miralas, who entered the Manchester City penalty area from the right rib at the top of the arc.
It's just a one-shot ball.
Miralas was completely unmarked.
Facing Bravo who did not choose to attack, Miralas was not anxious at all. He directly took the ball to the upper right corner of the small penalty area and then kicked the goal.
Bravo is like a funnel.
This time Bravo blocked the near corner and did not leave Miralas with much shooting angle from the far corner.
But with the left and right sides sealed, Bravo forgot about the small door under his crotch.
The ball passed under his crotch, then crossed the goal line and hit the far side netting hard.
"boom!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Witnessing the third goal, the Everton fans at Goodison Park were almost crazy with joy.
I really didn't expect that my team's shot conversion rate would be so high today.
The camera stayed on the Everton fans gathered in a group to celebrate for a while, and then suddenly turned to Guardiola on the coaching bench with a somewhat vacant look in his eyes.
"Gua Shuai seems to be a little confused!" Zhan Jun shook his head during the live broadcast.
"There is basically no suspense in the game, 3-0. Although there are about 20 minutes left, the suspense can be said to have been killed."
"Yes, Everton's offensive efficiency is too high!" Zhan Jun said, shaking his head as he looked at the expressionless Chu Zheng in the camera.
Soon, Guardiola made substitution adjustments. Iheanacho replaced Zabaleta, leaving Yaya Toure as a single defensive midfielder.
Everton also followed suit with substitutions.
If Guardiola wants to attack, then he will defend.
Koeman directly replaced Miralas with Schneiderlin, removed an offensive player and added a defensive player.
But this time Guardiola's substitution adjustment was not magical, and instead indirectly led to the fourth goal conceded.
In the 82nd minute of the game, Manchester City was intercepted in the frontcourt, and Everton once again launched a headache-inducing quick counterattack.
After Davis got the ball on his right rib, he quickly took the ball to the wing and advanced by leaps and bounds.
Taking the ball two meters past the center line, Davis was stuck on the wing by Clichy and Yaya Toure.
Just when everyone thought Everton's counterattack was gone, Davis used Ronaldo's signature heel to knock the ball sideways, suddenly changed direction to the left, and forced his way directly between Clichy and Yaya Toure.
passed.
Dribbling the ball to the front of the right rib at the top of the arc, Davis was blocked by Stones.
Davis was also decisive enough and quickly hit Lukaku to the left who was following up in the middle.
Facing Otamendi's top shot, Lukaku made a Marseille arc movement on the spot, but did not touch the ball. He missed the ball, then turned around and made a diagonal pass to the left, directly taking Otamendi away.
.
At this moment, Manchester City's defense was disrupted again.
In the right rib area at the top of the arc, Davis, who was knocked down by Stones after passing the ball, got up on his hands and feet and quickly started to move forward.
The next second, Barkley, who calmly adjusted after taking the ball, sent another through ball.
In the upper right corner of the small penalty area, facing Bravo's attack, the 18-year-old Davis did not choose to push to the far corner this time, but chose the near corner.
Yaya Toure was behind Davis from start to finish.
He worked hard, but he just couldn't catch up with the young Davis. He could only watch the ball grazing the inside of the near post and skipping over the goal line.
"The ball went in, Tom Davies, only 18 years old, this is his first Premier League goal! Incredible performance!"
"Oh my God!"
"This is a massacre!!!!" Zhan Jun and Zhang Lu were stunned in the live broadcast room. They never expected that Everton would score a goal with just one kick.
"Unbelievable, unbelievable!!" Zhan Jun shouted repeatedly.
"This is the first time in Guardiola's coaching career that he has been massacred 4-0 by his opponent in the league."
"Before this, he also lost 0-4 twice in the Champions League, but the opponents were Real Madrid and Barcelona!"
"Yaya Toure, he is getting old. Once his physical energy is depleted drastically in the second half, his defensive effectiveness will drop sharply." Zhang Lu said in a rather sad tone, "If it were Yaya Toure in his youth, David
Si has absolutely no chance to start."
"Yes, he started following Davis after discovering his intention, but he just couldn't catch up!"
On the court, Chu Zheng, like other players, was a little lost and felt powerless.
Chu Zheng was like this, and other Manchester City players were even more frustrated.
On the sidelines, Guardiola was sitting quietly on the coach's bench, his face very calm, and there was no trace of any mental activity.
In the end, Manchester City, who came with full fighting spirit, was beaten 4-0 by Everton, causing a huge upset in this round of Premier League.
