Chapter 323: An away game against Paris Saint-Germain, a head-to-head matchup

Paris, the capital of France.

Manchester City players arrived a day early and needed to adjust their physical fitness and get more accustomed to the venue of the Parc des Princes.

On April 5th, Zhao Yi stayed in the hotel and did not go out.

The romantic capital of France and world civilization.

More than half of the population of France is gathered here.

The lights are feasting and the beauties are like clouds.

Moreover, all types of young beauties are charming and avant-garde.

It is an excellent city for romance.

With Zhao Yi's status and reputation, he could be hugged by anyone he wanted to go out, but Zhao Yi didn't go out.

Because he is almost nineteen years old now, and has long passed the age where he can think about women.

The next morning, Paris was very particular and opened the stadium to Manchester City so that Manchester City players could get used to the venue at the Parc des Princes.

Unlike some teams, who deliberately find various reasons to keep the stadium closed to away games, so that the visiting team cannot feel it in advance.

After two hours of adapting to the venue, the Manchester City players returned to the hotel.

On the way, I also met some Paris fans, and these fans did not show the disgust of the Manchester City players.

Not even yelling or cursing at the top of his lungs.

Overall it's very friendly.

But it was different in the evening when Manchester City players rushed to the Parc des Princes again.

At this time, a large number of fans had gathered outside the Parc des Princes stadium.

They waved flags and held various support gadgets in their hands, ready to cheer for their teams.

At this time, some extreme fans surrounded the Manchester City bus and started shouting.

Trying to influence the form of Manchester City players.

Zhao Yi was sitting in the car, not surprised by this situation.

He prefers to admire the huge number of beautiful fans.

The beauties raised their hands, with red lips and white teeth, and smiles as bright as flowers.

Beautiful figure, elegant and graceful.

It is said that white beauties in France are all shiny white, except for their armpits, which are black.

Because they often raise their hands in the air, their armpits are tanned by the sun.

Don't know if it's true or false.

Zhao Yi has never seen it, but has only heard about it.

The Paris Saint-Germain team also won two top league championships before 2011, but most of the time they were at the mid-table level.

The dominant player in Ligue 1 has always been Lyon.

But with the Qatari consortium taking over and waving checks to buy people everywhere, the team has risen strongly in Ligue 1.

Paris has won three consecutive championships and basically won the Ligue 1 title this season.

In Ligue 1, it is already a truly wealthy club.

This is the power of oil.

It's similar to Manchester City.

The two teams built with money are, in Gary Neville's words, a mercenary army.

Tonight, it depends on who spends more money.

Zhao Yi stood in the player tunnel and could hear the cheers of the fans outside.

Zhao Yi couldn't understand what he was shouting.

Along with the cheers of the fans, smoke and confetti of different colors floated from the scene.

Fans are allowed to set off fireworks at the home ground of Paris Saint-Germain.

This is absolutely not allowed in the Premier League.

PSG's opening preparation time is longer than other teams.

Zhao Yi was waiting there, already a little anxious.

He's eager for this game.

The quarter-finals of the Champions League, this is a game that Manchester City and Zhao Yi have never participated in.

It is also a game that Chinese players have never appeared in.

How to avoid expectations?

"What are you doing? You haven't come out yet?"

"The French are so ink?"

"Except for surrendering, France has done nothing neatly."

"Stop pushing, stop pushing, I'm writing a surrender letter! Wait a minute!"

Chinese fans were booing in the live broadcast room, and the commentator was reading the commentary prepared in advance step by step.

Finally, players from both sides began to enter.

Paris head coach Blanco arranged a handy 433 formation.

The three strikers in the frontcourt are Angel Di Maria, who struggled at Manchester United last season, Ibrahimovic, who will join Manchester United next season, and Uruguayan striker Cavani. .

This powerful striker combination, except for the current Real Madrid and Barcelona, can definitely start at any wealthy club.

Midfielder, Rabiot, Motta, Matuidi.

Because of Verratti's injury, the midfielder's interception ability is much worse.

But Mota can make do with it.

The guard combination in the backcourt is also star-studded.

The two central defenders are both Brazil's main starters, Diego Silva and David Luiz.

Double defenders Aurier and Maxwell.

Goalkeeper Trapp.

The offense and defense are quite balanced.

David Luiz has no other shortcomings except that he often takes the lead and is a bit soft.

And Lewis's strongest point is his ability to organize with the ball. Now he is more like an enhanced version of Stones.

Manchester City is still at the previous 4231, but Sterling suffered from muscle discomfort after returning to the national team and did not start this game.

The one at the front is Aguero.

The next three are De Bruyne, David Silva and Zhao Yi.

Double defensive midfielder Fernandinho partners with Fernando.

Because the organizational skills of Fernando and Fernandinho are not top-notch, Guardiola arranged for Stones, who has more outstanding foot skills, to partner Kompany.

Two full-backs, Clichy and Sagna.

Zabaleta made several errors in handling the ball on the court, which made Guardiola lose his patience.

Zabaleta has been put on the bench.

The goalkeeper is Joe Hart.

“In this game, Zhao Yi appeared on the right to fill the vacancy left by Sterling.

Zhao Yi has also appeared on the wing in previous games, with satisfactory results.

His assault ability is quite good, but Guardiola prefers to have him appear as the core of the ball in the front midfielder or even the back midfielder. In this game, let us see how it works. "

As the referee's whistle sounded, Aguero kicked the ball to Fernando.

The Paris frontcourt players immediately launched a counterattack.

Obviously, Paris, unlike Bournemouth in the last game, will not retreat on defense.

They are ready to give Manchester City a direct blow.

Di Maria and Cavani are both very capable.

"Fernando... is much less skilled and confident than Gundogan and Zhao Yi.

This time I almost got robbed!

Pass back... Stones!

Joe Hart…

Given Sagna, Manchester City's backcourt situation is very serious!

The players from Paris Saint-Germain were very aggressive.

Just step forward!
