Chapter 247 Guardiola's Miraculous Substitution
As soon as the second half of the game started, Liverpool's offensive became fierce.
Liverpool's offense on both sides is also the best in the Premier League.
Salah and Mane are both top wingers who can be ranked in the top ten.
It can be said that Salah's two World Cups ended in tragedy, but no one doubted Salah's strength.
After breaking through the defense of two players consecutively on the right, Salah sent a through ball.
Firmino in the middle grabbed the spot and barely touched the football with his forehead, causing the football to change direction and hit the goal.
Ederson tried his best to save, but couldn't touch the football.
However, the crisp sound of "bang" made the Manchester City players feel relieved.
The football hit the goal post and popped out of the penalty area. Stones, who had escaped from death, kicked the ball into Liverpool's frontcourt.
Jesus was in the frontcourt, under the protection of two Liverpool players, and was not able to get the ball.
In today's game, Jesus looked very out of shape. He was invisible in the first half and barely touched the ball a few times, let alone shot, without a kick.
As a center, such data is very unqualified.
During the intermission, Jesus was also reprimanded by Guardiola. If this is still the case in the second half, it is estimated that he will be replaced soon.
Jesus is also very anxious, but today's football is just wondering, so he doesn't go to his side, even if the pass is passed to his feet, the opponent's defense is very tight, and there is almost no room for the ball.
However, it cannot be said that Jesus was useless in the first half. His ability to attract defense is still good. Whether it is Li Mingyu's goal or Sterling's goal, Jesus' running position opened up Liverpool's defensive lineup, allowing the two to find a chance to shoot.
This time too, with a big foot in the backcourt, Jesus doesn't care whether he can grab it or not, anyway, he will try his best to rush to grab it.
However, under the scrambling of Jesus, Liverpool's Van Dijk made a slight mistake when he headed the ball to his teammate.
Fabinho looked at the ball that said it was high or low, and stopped with his chest, too low, stopped with his feet, too high, stopped with his thighs, and had to take a step back, but behind him, Li Mingyu had already posted it!
Fabinho is also a ruthless person. He went straight up and stopped the ball with his crotch.
Enduring the pain that all men know, Fabinho unloaded the ball, made a cross pass, and handed the ball to Mane on the wing.
Although Li Mingyu didn't see clearly how Fabinho stopped the ball, but after Fabinho passed the ball, his face hurt, which made Li Mingyu feel a chill.
It really is a wolf!
You are so cruel to yourself!
Mane received the pass with Fabinho's soul blow, and quickly started to attack the Manchester City formation.
Li Mingyu quickly returned to the defense, but while returning to the defense, he couldn't help but look back at the ugly Fabinho.
Brother, is brother really all right?
Mane's breakthrough did not pose a threat, and was blocked by both sides of the Manchester City team and broke the ball.
Just when Manchester City passed the ball to Li Mingyu to counterattack quickly, Li Mingyu found helplessly that Fabinho fell to the ground with a face full of pain.
Sure enough, he is a smart man!
Seeing this, Li Mingyu kicked the ball out of the touchline without waiting for the Liverpool people to complain.
Liverpool's team doctor hurried onto the pitch at the referee's signal.
The Liverpool fans in the stands also gave Li Mingyu applause very sensiblely, expressing their admiration for his fair play.
Looking at Fabinho curled up on the ground, Li Mingyu also felt his scalp tingling.
If you want to practice peerless martial arts, you have to endure unbearable pain for ordinary people...
The slow motion on the TV screen also let everyone know the whole process of Fabinho's injury.
As long as he is a man, he can't help but "fuck" to express his sympathy for Fabinho.
However, after all, the ball was hit by Van Dijk's header, and the speed and strength were not as hard as kicking with his feet. Therefore, after calming down with a spray, Fabinho stood up grinning and jumped twice on the spot.
Actually, at this time, the most nervous person should be Fabinho's wife!
Seeing that Fabinho was fine, the referee declared the game to continue.
Fabinho made reasonable use of the rules just now, and exchanged his own fall to the ground for Manchester City's failed fast break.
A Liverpool player throws the ball back to Manchester City's backcourt.
The applause sounded again, this time for the Liverpool players.
Football is not only winning or losing, but also warmth and demeanor.
Manchester City returned to the position to attack again.
The game fell into anxiety again.
The Liverpool team really deserves to be the team that has been able to win the Champions League in recent years, and their offensive and defensive strengths are very good.
Manchester City is slightly stronger than Liverpool in the midfield.
Li Mingyu, Gundogan, and Rodri, the three midfielders, should be the strongest trio in football today.
The striker trio is barely equal to the opponent, but the defense, a Van Dijk, can top the two Manchester City defenders.
In this year's World Cup, Li Mingyu and Van Dijk played against each other. Although the Spanish team defeated the Dutch team, Van Dijk has already shown his strength in defense and blocked Li Mingyu's passes many times.
The Spanish team's victory over the Dutch team relied on the overall strength. Over the years, the strength of the Dutch team has declined greatly.
But as long as Van Dijk is there, the Dutch team is not a weak team.
The score of 2:2 has been deadlocked until the No.70 minute of the second half.
Guardiola was the first to make the changes.
Sterling, who wasted many chances, was finally taken down by the unbearable Guardiola and replaced by Frenchman Mahrez.
Mahrez is also a left-footer, and his breakthrough from the wing is very sharp.
In midfield, Gundogan was replaced by Bernardo Silva.
The two matchup substitutions expressed Guardiola's dissatisfaction with these two players.
Gundogan was already very dissatisfied with his position in the team last season.
De Bruyne is the team's first organizer, and Gundogan believes that his position on the court is becoming more and more useless.
This season, the arrival of Li Mingyu once again compressed Jing Duoan's space to hold the ball. Jing Duoan was pushed to the side by Li Mingyu, which made Jing Duoan very dissatisfied.
Before the World Cup, Gundogan had revealed to the media that he was not happy with Manchester City, and he still had a two-year contract with the team, hoping to return to Dortmund after the contract expired.
This remark angered Guardiola. You must know that after the old captain Fernandinho retired last season, Guardiola handed over the captain's armband to Gundogan with great trust.
Unexpectedly, Gundogan would say such a thing, which is a great harm to Guardiola.
Gundogan's performance on the field today is very average, he is not active in running, and rarely advances forward, just as a tool for transitioning the ball.
Such Gundogan, Guardiola felt very annoyed.
When Gundogan was off the field, he even forgot to take off his captain's armband.
Fortunately, Bernardo Silva, who was on the field, reminded him, so he suddenly realized that he took off his armband and handed it to Bernardo Silva, and returned to the bench with an indifferent face, without any communication with Guardiola.
With a dark face, Guardiola shouted at Bernardo Silva, "Bernardo, give Lee the captain's armband!"
Bernardo Silva froze for a moment, thinking he was handing it over to the vice-captain defender Stones!
Bernardo Silva ran up to Li Mingyu and announced Guardiola's decision.
Li Mingyu glanced at Guardiola standing on the sidelines, and the two smiled at each other. Li Mingyu nodded and asked Bernardo Silva to help wrap the captain's armband around his arm.
This is not the first time Li Mingyu has worn the captain's armband.
In the World Cup, due to the injury of captain Busquets of the Spanish team, the captain's armband was worn on Li Mingyu's arm.
And after the World Cup ended, Busquets announced his withdrawal from the national team, and Enrique directly appointed Li Mingyu as the new captain of the national team.
The 20-year-old captain of the Spanish national team should be the youngest captain in the history of the Spanish national team.
However, World Cup champion, World Cup Golden Globe Award, World Cup Golden Boot Award, World Footballer, Golden Globe Award, such honors as the captain of a national team should be more than enough!
Wearing the captain's armband of the Manchester City team, Li Mingyu was very excited. He knew what kind of responsibilities he would have after wearing the armband.
After the substitutions were made, the game resumed.
Replaced by Bernardo Silva, Manchester City's offense immediately had an immediate change.
Gundogan's inaction made Liverpool, who had not felt the pressure for seven or 10 minutes, feel tremendous pressure on the right.
The cooperation of Li Mingyu and Bernardo Silva opened a gap in Liverpool's defense on the right.
Li Mingyu kicked the ball through, Bernardo Silva waded past Arnold on the right of Liverpool, and passed the ball to Mahrez who ran out of space.
Mahrez touched the ball with his first foot and stopped the ball very smoothly. Facing the attacking goalkeeper, he shot a low shot and sent the football into Liverpool's goal.
2:3, the Manchester City team in the away game once again overtook the score.
This goal made the singing of Liverpool fans pause for a long time.
Guardiola shouted excitedly off the field. This goal was due to his own substitution adjustment. The two players who had just replaced on the field, Bernardo Silva and Mahrez, completed the goal.
Even the commentator was shocked and said that Guardiola's substitution was really a stroke of genius, and he really deserves to be a top coach.
This goal made Klopp's face completely ugly.
There are still about 10 minutes left. If you don't want to lose at home, you have to make adjustments to the team again.
The goal just now has fully exposed the problems in the defense on the right.
Klopp replaced Arnold, who was already a little immobile, with Gomez, and replaced Curtis Jones with Takumi Minano, a Japanese player who had just returned from Neampton, to strengthen the offensive ability of the midfield again.
Takumi Minano played very well in this World Cup. In the group stage, he scored two goals and helped the Japanese team enter the knockout round.
In the game against the Spanish team, Takumi Minano played very well in the midfield. In the early stage, he was able to play evenly with the Spanish midfielder.
However, in the end, the Spanish team was even better and defeated the Spanish team, but Minano Takumi's performance did leave some impression on Li Mingyu.
Unexpectedly, Takumi Minamino would play for Liverpool.
Minamino Takumi was very excited to play. He was loaned to Southampton by Liverpool last season and performed very well.
Therefore, this season, Liverpool brought him back to Anfield, hoping that he can serve as a good addition to the midfield.
Li Mingyu took the ball, Minano Takumi quickly put up the defense and defended Li Mingyu head-on.
Spirit is commendable.
However, facing Takumi Minamino who was actively defending, Li Mingyu used all his strength to express his admiration for him.
Li Mingyu swiped the football to his right with the outside instep of his right foot, intending to break through to the right.
Minano Takumi's center of gravity followed and began to move to his left, but when he just moved his center of gravity, he was shocked to find that Li Mingyu's right foot appeared on the right side of the football as if by magic, and the instep of his right foot kicked back, and the football bounced back to Li Mingyu's left side as if being pulled by a rubber band.
Although Minano Takumi's center of gravity shifted, he used his strong physical fitness to force his center of gravity to move, and reluctantly stretched out his right foot, hoping to poke the football.
And just when Nanye Takumi was about to stab the football, Li Mingyu's left foot came to the trajectory of the football, and with a light touch, the football seemed to hit between two chopsticks.
The football passed between Takumi Minamino's outstretched legs.
Takumi Minano hurriedly stepped up his legs, but his brain could do it, but his body couldn't change the center of gravity continuously.
Nanye Takumi could only watch as Li Mingyu brushed past him, and he was lightly bumped by the other's shoulder, becoming the last straw that broke the camel's back, and fell to the ground with a bang.
Like a gust of wind, Li Mingyu rushed past Nanye Takumi.
Due to Minano Takumi's loss of position, after Li Mingyu broke through, Liverpool's midfield defense was briefly chaotic.
"Egg Pain Warrior" Fabinho came to help defend Li Mingyu from the side, and in front of Li Mingyu, Van Dijk was ready to rush up at any time.
However, Jesus' running position involved Van Dijk's energy, which prevented him from choosing to grab the first time, which gave Li Mingyu an excellent opportunity.
