Chapter 570 Revenge was successful, Dortmund was defeated in the away game

The change in the mentality of Chelsea players was quickly reflected in the game.

They were very impatient when attacking and were not as patient as before.

It happened several times on the field. After Chelsea players stole the ball in the backcourt, they kicked it directly to the frontcourt, eager to score.

However, this method is too inefficient. The balls they kick out with their big feet are difficult to get by their teammates, and most of the time they fall into the hands of Manchester City.

After Manchester City got the ball, they naturally passed it to the frontcourt without hesitation and continued to attack Chelsea.

"Stabilize your mind, don't be anxious, and be patient!"

Conte saw on the sidelines that the players' mentality was not quite right, and quickly ran out to shout on the court.

Unfortunately, the noise at the scene was too loud, his voice was drowned by the sound of the scene, and not many players heard his instructions.

This made Conte feel a little bad. He was playing well in the past, but why did he suddenly become like this?

It's all damn Tottenham's fault. If they had lost to Swansea, there wouldn't be anything like this!

Just when Conte felt bad, the situation on the court changed again.

In the 82nd minute, Manchester City launched an attack on the spot after successfully intercepting the ball in midfield.

Lin Quan and David Silva hit the wall and cooperated. After passing the opponent's full-back, he quickly cut inside.

Chelsea's defenders reacted quickly, and someone immediately pounced on Lin Quan.

Lin Quan saw David Luiz coming, and instantly recalled the opponent's technical characteristics.

David Luiz: Likes to tackle and is aggressive defensively.

Disadvantages: Slow turning speed, not mentally stable enough, easy to get cards.

After thinking of this, Lin Quan deliberately sold a flaw to give David Luiz a chance to steal.

David Luiz was so overjoyed that he didn't even think about whether it was the opponent's complete set and just went to grab it.

Lin Quan couldn't help but sigh when he saw that the other party was fooled so easily, what an upright guy!

The moment David Luiz stretched out his foot, Lin Quan changed his mind.

He flicked the ball and dunked it, getting out of the way of David Luiz, who was trying to grab him, and then suddenly accelerated and rushed into the penalty area.

Chelsea's goalkeeper didn't see clearly how the opponent got past his teammate. He only saw the guy he least wanted to see dribbling the ball into the penalty area!

There was no longer any barrier between the two of them, and other Chelsea players in the penalty area were too late to rescue.

Fight!

The goalkeeper lowered his center of gravity, staring intently at Lin Quan's movements while pressing forward quickly, trying to block Lin Quan's shooting angle.

The distance between the two quickly narrowed, and Lin Quan's shooting angle also disappeared little by little.

However, just when the goalkeeper thought his defensive strategy was successful, he saw Lin Quan slow down.

"Going to shoot!"

The goalkeeper's heart trembled, and he made a judgment instantly.

Lin Quan was indeed going to shoot, and he was still using a very traditional shooting method - rubbing shot!

The swung toe kicked the bottom of the football, and the football flew up from the ground.

The goalkeeper couldn't jump to save the ball flying over his head. He could only stretch his body as much as possible and try to use his hands to save it.

But the result is obvious. His speed cannot match the speed of the ball flying in the air, and even if he stretches out his hand, the height is still much lower.

The football slid through a parabola in the air and crashed into the net.

The score became 2:3, and Manchester City reversed Chelsea in the away game.

After confirming that the goal was valid, Lin Quan opened his arms and ran all the way along the court, running to the stands where the fans of the away team were, raising his hands to signal the fans to applaud and cheer more enthusiastically.

The Manchester City fans who were traveling with the team were already very excited because of this goal. At this time, they saw Lin Quan, the hero of the goal, asking for applause from them. They all shouted at the top of their lungs and clapped as hard as they could, raising the cheers and applause to the maximum.

On the home team's side, the Chelsea players on the field were as if they were mourning for their wives, lowering their heads and saying nothing.

Conte almost fainted from anger on the sidelines. These guys are like this every time. Can't they strictly follow the tactics they have formulated?

Can I still hurt you?

The situation of this game was originally good, but now it is better. Behind Manchester City at home, there is not much game time left. Can Chelsea turn the game around?

It’s difficult!

Let alone reversing the game, even a draw is probably not an easy task.

After Conte was angry, he forced himself to calm down.

The game is not over yet, we cannot give up yet.

He called William over from the bench and asked him to warm up and prepare to play.

William was indispensable for Chelsea's victory over Manchester City in the last away game.

If he hadn't disturbed Manchester City's entire defense on the wing, Chelsea would have been overwhelmed by Manchester City's tidal wave of attacks.

Since previous games have proven that using William to deal with Manchester City is very effective, then trust him again!

Seeing that Conte was about to make a substitution, Guardiola immediately took the initiative. He began to mobilize his troops, replacing offensive players and replacing them with defensive players.

This posture is to defend the score until the end!

At the end of the game, the roles of the two sides reversed, and Chelsea besieged Manchester City, while Manchester City began to defend and counterattack.

Chelsea's positional warfare was not strong. With no attacking space, their siege was loud and heavy, and they could not find a chance to score.

On the contrary, Manchester City's counterattack was extremely threatening, and Chelsea's defensive players had to use tactical fouls many times to stop the opponent.

The audience at the scene was a little stunned for a moment. Why is this scene so similar to before?

Time is passing little by little, and there is not much time left for Chelsea.

Although they tried several shots, they did not pose a threat to Manchester City's goal.

Seeing that the game was about to end, the Chelsea people simply rushed into the penalty area and tried to score goals using aerial bombing tactics.

But Manchester City is not a Spanish team, and Manchester City's defense is still very tall.

Under Van Dijk's defense, it was difficult for Chelsea to find opportunities at several high points, and their heading tactics also failed.

In injury time, Manchester City once again got a chance to counterattack.

Lin Quan ran wildly with the ball. At this time, others could hardly run, but this guy actually still had such outstanding physical strength for such a long-distance run.

Thinking of this, Chelsea fans' eyes were filled with despair, as if they had already seen the final result.

Without any surprises, Lin Quan rode through the barrier alone and passed the goalkeeper after entering the penalty area.

The score became 2:4, and Chelsea, the leader, lost miserably to Manchester City at their home court.

Manchester City's great revenge was avenged, and he returned home with satisfaction.

Chelsea was very depressed. This game reduced their lead by 3 points. With Tottenham chasing after them, they really couldn't make any more mistakes.

After this round of games, the league's points ranking has undergone some changes.

Although Chelsea lost, they still topped the list with 72 points.

Tottenham are 4 points behind Chelsea and temporarily ranked second.

After beating Arsenal and Chelsea, Manchester City's points reached 64 points, temporarily ranking third.

Behind Manchester City is Liverpool, who currently have 60 points.

Arsenal defeated West Ham United in this round, slightly narrowing the point gap with Liverpool, and is currently ranked fifth with 59 points.

As for Manchester United?

They are lagging far behind, and there is a high probability that they will not be able to get a Champions League spot through the league this season.

On April 8, the 32nd round of the Premier League started.

Tottenham, who took the field first, were full of morale and beat their opponents cleanly 4-0 at home, putting enough pressure on Chelsea.

Liverpool, who are competing with Arsenal for fourth place in the league, defeated Stoke City 2:1 in an away game. Although the win was not easy, they finally got the three points they wanted most.

Manchester City, who are ranked in the middle in terms of points and have no hope of competing for the championship and basically have no worries about their Champions League seats, easily defeated the relegation team Hull City 3:1 at home.

Although the opponent's ranking is very low, the closer to the end of the league, the harder it is for these relegation teams to play.

But they were not very lucky and encountered a team with Manchester City's style.

As soon as Manchester City's passing control started, it was difficult for Hull City players to even touch the ball. It was not easy to score a face-saving goal when the ball possession rate was less than 30%.

Of course, their goal was scored near the end of the game. At that time, Manchester City had already withdrawn its troops. Many of the main players were not on the field. The remaining players on the field were not as serious in their defense as before.

The top teams in the league have all won, and Chelsea is feeling a lot of pressure.

Fortunately, after they suffered a loss at Manchester City in the last game, the players became more honest this time. They obeyed Conte's arrangements and strictly implemented the tactics Conte formulated for them. At 1:3 in the away game After defeating the opponent, the position was finally stabilized.

The league has entered the final stage, and now it is one game less.

Although their lead has shrunk from 7 points to 4 points, as long as they make no mistakes in the next 6 games, the initiative to compete for the championship is still in their own hands.

Manchester United, which followed Chelsea closely, also defeated its opponent cleanly 3:0 in the away game and still retains its theoretical hope of winning the championship.

Now all the pressure is on Arsenal's side!

However, Arsenal could not withstand the pressure and were beaten 3:0 by Crystal Palace in the away game.

Now, Gunners fans are really desperate.

After this round of games, Arsenal is 4 points behind Liverpool, and this point difference has been difficult to catch up with.

Arsenal's failure to secure fourth place will become a high probability event.

…

After playing this round of the Champions League, Manchester City began to actively prepare for the first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals.

Since they have little hope of winning the Premier League this season, the team's main focus is on the Champions League.

Compared with last season, Manchester City faces much greater challenges in the Champions League this season.

The rapidly rising Paris Saint-Germain and Juventus making steady progress step by step.

The lineup has been further strengthened, and Real Madrid, whose overall strength is even better than Manchester City, etc., are all Manchester City's strong opponents.

Although the opponent is very strong, Guardiola's goal for the team is still to win the championship.

You can't give up just because your opponent is strong, right?

April 13, Westfalenstadion.

With the cheering of more than 80,000 fans at home, the Hornets attacked Manchester City's penalty area over and over again.

Judging from the situation on the field, those who don’t know would think that the Hornet has such an advantage!

However, when people turn their eyes to the scoreboard, their eyes will definitely freeze for a second.

The first half is not over yet, and the score on the field is already 0:3. The home team is in front and the away team is in behind.

The Hornets fell behind Manchester City by 3 goals in such a short period of time.

How did this kick?

Dortmund's head coach Tuchel was also confused and completely confused about the situation of the game.

Let's turn back the time. In the 16th minute of the first half, Lin Quan's old teammate in Werder Bremen, Papastathopoulos, fouled Lin Quan in the penalty area. While receiving a yellow card, he also gave Manchester City a penalty. Penalty kick.

Lin Quan, who took the penalty kick, made the penalty steadily and accepted the gift from his old teammate.

Only 2 minutes later, Mbappe, who was put into the starting lineup by Guardiola for this game, received an assist from Lin Quan and scored the team's second goal.

Manchester City's two consecutive lightning whips stunned the Hornets, and they gave another big gift when defending.

Dortmund defender Svendmund accidentally kicked the ball into his own goal during a clearance, rewriting the score to 0:3.

The Westfalenstadion has always been a devil's home stadium known for its extremely fanatical fans, but today, when Manchester City scored one after another, especially when they saw the third own goal, the Hornets fans in the stands were silent. .

Even the most die-hard South Stand has no energy to cheer at this time.

I don’t understand, I really don’t understand, what is going on?

Why are you kicking like this?

To be honest, although Dortmund's strength is not top-notch, it is not that weak either.

So before the game, no one, not even the Manchester City fans, expected that the game would turn out like this.

Manchester City may not be as powerful as they look, but the Hornets are much better than fans expected.

Perhaps Tuchel turned on the hair dryers for the players during the halftime break. After the start of the second half, the condition of the Dortmund players improved a lot.

In the 57th minute, Shinji Kagawa sent a through ball, Ousmane Dembele caught the ball and volleyed successfully, rewriting the score to 1:3.

Dembele is a potential new star that Dortmund is currently focusing on cultivating, and the team has high hopes for him.

Dembélé's performance in Dortmund this season is worthy of his worth, which makes Hornet fans extremely looking forward to it. They hope that he can grow up quickly and lead the Hornets to complete the revival together with Royce and other remaining veteran players.

Although it is difficult to reverse this game, seeing Dembele score, the Hornets fans had smiles on their faces. With this goal, it is not a loss!

After Dortmund scored, the team's morale soared and they seized the opportunity to launch a fierce attack on Manchester City, trying to take advantage of this momentum to score a few more goals.

However, they somewhat underestimated their opponents.

Under Manchester City's tight defense, Dortmund could not find a good chance. On the contrary, in the 79th minute, Manchester City scored another goal with a quick counterattack.

The person who scored the goal was Mbappe. This kid scored twice in the Champions League for the first time, and he completely lived up to the expectations of Guardiola and the fans.

Seeing Mbappe's wonderful performance, every Manchester City fan in the stands was satisfied.

They couldn't help but glance at the Hornets fans next to them proudly: You Hornets have Dembele, and we at Manchester City have Mbappe. We all have a bright future!
