Chapter 510

At the beginning of the game, the players of both sides quickly entered the state, and the competition between Manchester City and Sevilla in the midfield was particularly fierce.

The two teams invested 13 players in the midfield, which made every competition in the midfield like a small battle.

Manchester City relied on the excellent organizational ability of De Bruyne and David Silva to constantly try to break through Sevilla's defense through short passes.

Li Lei and Fernandinho's running and interception in the midfield gave De Bruyne more free play space.

In the 7th minute, De Bruyne made a wonderful breakthrough in the midfield. He passed the ball to Aguero who was advancing. The latter's shot was saved by Sevilla goalkeeper Rico.

Sevilla used N'Zonzi and Kranevit's defense to stabilize the defense and threatened Manchester City's goal through a quick counterattack.

In the 12th minute, N'Zonzi intercepted the ball in the midfield and quickly passed the ball to Vitolo in the frontcourt. Vitolo shook off Manchester City's defense with a subtle pass and passed the ball to forward Vietto.

Vietto's low shot was caught by Joe Hart.

The confrontation between the two teams in the midfield made the game very tight and the defense of both sides was very tight.

In the 18th minute, Li Lei passed the ball to David Silva through a successful steal, and Silva quickly passed the ball to Kyle Walker on the right.

Walker used his speed to break through Sevilla's defense and accurately found Aguero with a cross, but Aguero's header was again resolved by Rico.

Although both sides created some opportunities, neither side was able to break the deadlock in the first 20 minutes.

The competition in the midfield made the offense of both teams a little difficult, but it also made the game full of highlights.

The fans in the audience cheered for every successful steal and every wonderful pass, and the atmosphere on the scene became more heated.

In the 21st minute, Manchester City's midfielders showed their intelligence in the face of Sevilla's dense defense.

De Bruyne and David Silva continued to pull Sevilla's defense through precise short passes and flexible running.

Li Lei found an empty position 30 yards away from the goal through active running in the midfield.

Fernandinho passed the ball to De Bruyne, who quickly passed the ball to Li Lei who was inserted.

Li Lei did not make many adjustments and directly shot a powerful shot.

The ball flew straight to Sevilla's goal like a cannonball and hit the dead corner.

Although goalkeeper Rico flew to save the ball, the speed and angle of the ball were too tricky, so he could only watch the ball go into the net.

Li Lei's long-range goal ignited the passion of the stadium, and Manchester City fans cheered in the stands.

The players also came forward to celebrate this wonderful goal with Li Lei.

Manchester City leads 1-0!

In Gao Yi's live broadcast room, when Li Lei shot, Gao Yi shouted excitedly: "Li Lei! Shoot!"

"Oh my god, this ball goes in!"

"Li Lei's world wave from 30 yards away from the goal"

"Manchester City leads 1-0!"

"This goal is so wonderful! It goes straight into the dead corner, it is undoubtedly a textbook long shot!"

The barrage in the live broadcast room exploded instantly:

"Li Lei is amazing!"

"This goal is really unsolvable!"

"Long live Manchester City! Long live Li Lei!"

"De Bruyne's pass is also amazing!"

"Sevilla is completely unstoppable!"

Fans expressed their amazement at Li Lei's goal and their support for Manchester City in the barrage, and the entire live broadcast room was surrounded by a warm atmosphere.

This goal not only gave Manchester City the lead, but also greatly boosted the team's morale, and the situation on the court began to develop in a direction that was favorable to Manchester City.

But things don't always go as one wishes. After Li Lei's wonderful long-range goal, Manchester City temporarily took a 1-0 lead, but Sevilla was not disrupted by this goal.

They still fought fiercely in the midfield, constantly looking for opportunities to counterattack.

In the 41st minute, Sevilla finally seized a loophole in Manchester City's defense.

Sevilla's Matias Kranevert intercepted Manchester City's pass in the midfield, and he quickly passed the ball to Franco Vazquez who was waiting for an opportunity in the frontcourt.

Vazquez cleverly cooperated with his teammate N'Zonzi to get rid of Manchester City's midfield defense.

The latter dribbled the ball to the front of Manchester City's penalty area. Facing Manchester City's back line, he cleverly dribbled past Otamendi's defense and got an excellent shooting opportunity in the penalty area.

Vazquez shot low without hesitation, and the ball slid into the lower right corner of the goal along the grass. Although Buffon made a save, he failed to touch the ball.

The score became 1-1.

Sevilla successfully equalized the score.

Gao Yi's tone was full of regret when he saw Sevilla equalize the score: "Alas, Manchester City's defense has a loophole!"

"Sevilla seized this opportunity, and Vasquez's low shot in the penalty area left Buffon helpless."

"The score became 1-1."

"This is really an unexpected counterattack."

The barrage in the live broadcast room also reflected the fans' disappointment and concerns:

"Why is Manchester City's defense so unstable?"

"Buffon is really old and reacts a little slowly."

"Defense needs to be strengthened!"

"Sevilla's counterattack is really beautiful."

Fans expressed their dissatisfaction with Manchester City's defensive mistakes and their concerns about the situation of the game in the barrage.

The blow of the score being equalized was obvious, and Manchester City players seemed a little lost in the minutes before the end of the first half.

Although they were back on the same starting line, this goal still put them under a lot of pressure.

When the referee blew the whistle to end the first half, Li Lei and his teammates walked to the locker room, everyone's face was full of fatigue and unwillingness.

Li Lei's forehead was covered with sweat. He wiped the sweat with a towel while thinking about the strategy for the second half.

Aguero and De Bruyne were talking in a low voice, obviously discussing the reason for the loss just now.

Fernandinho was silent and followed his teammates with a serious face.
