Chapter 357 Happy Boy Sterling

Chapter 357 Happy Boy Sterling

Not only the Manchester United fans in the stands sighed, but also the Manchester United fans in front of the TV.

If this goal is scored, the game situation will be in favor of Manchester United, and the next game will at least be a little easier. It is not impossible to take this opportunity to win the game.

But soon they all applauded. Although there was no goal, it was still a wonderful attack, which gave them hope of winning all three points at home.

Manchester United fans have seen hope, and in the hearts of Manchester United players, this hope is more solid, solid and bigger.

Bruno, who didn't score, didn't show much regret. He turned around and rushed to Kante who passed the ball to him and gave him a thumbs up to thank him for the pass.

He did not take this offensive failure to heart, which shows that he is full of confidence and confident that he can threaten Manchester City's goal again in the next game.

His performance naturally made his teammates full of confidence. As the core of the team's midfield, you can't just perform your best on the court.

………………

This is the second time Bruno has challenged Manchester City. The first time was when he easily passed Iheanacho at the beginning of the game and won applause from the audience.

After being provoked, it is natural to find a way to fight back.

Three minutes have passed since the start of the game, and Manchester City finally got its first opportunity to attack.

This is what they are best at, and it is also the biggest threat to Manchester United. It is finally here!

Bravo kicked the football forward with his big foot. In the center circle, Fernandinho controlled the high point. He put the football down with his head and passed it back to the center back Otamendi.

Otamendi handed the football to Stones, and Stones came up with the ball.

Having excellent ball-playing ability is an important reason why Guardiola spent a whopping £4750 million to bring Stones to Manchester City this summer.

Instead of continuing to dribble the ball deep, Stones passed the ball to De Bruyne.

As soon as De Bruyne got the ball, Manchester City's offensive lineup started to move.

Bruno noticed that Sterling, De Bruyne and David Silva were very close to each other, always keeping a very appropriate distance.

If you want to guard Sterling, you need to cut off the connection between him and De Bruyne and David Silva. However, Bruno cannot do this alone. This requires the help of the whole team. His task is Freezing Sterling in one-on-one situations.

The person marking De Bruyne was Kante. When he saw De Bruyne receiving the ball, he pounced on him, trying to entangle De Bruyne.

The core of the Belgian national team did not wait for Kanter to come up and passed the football to Sterling!

………………

"Sterling got the ball!"

City commentators and fans alike were excited.

Sterling got the ball and looked up in front, where Bruno stood.

"Sterling meets Bruno!"

This is a very nervous moment for all Manchester United fans. Can Sterling break through Bruno, and can Bruno successfully defend Sterling?

When Sterling saw Bruno, he was not surprised, but rather happy.

Both players were born in 1994, and both won the European Golden Boy Award. He is only one year behind Bruno, so he thinks he is not weaker than Bruno.

But now Bruno has become a superstar who has defeated Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi to win the Ballon d'Or. He has a tendency to surpass Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo and become the number one football player in the world. However, he is still just an ordinary player in Manchester City. A member of the team, he did not even become a core player, which made Sterling very unconvinced.

He didn't know much about Bruno, only the few videos he watched before the game, and most of them were about Bruno's offensive abilities. As for his defensive skills, the head coach didn't say much, so he just gave it to him. Comments on "Excellent awareness and fierce tackling".

But many players deserve such an evaluation. We don’t know how good their awareness is or how ferocious their steals are.

Sterling decided to test the waters himself.

He brought the football forward, not very fast, but when he was close to Bruno, he suddenly flicked the football to the right and accelerated to overtake!

………………

At this time, there was only one word in Bruno's mind - so fast!

Sterling's figure flashed before his eyes, and before he reacted, Sterling had almost passed behind him.

After long-term training in the training master system, Bruno is already very fast, and he often encounters fast players in the game, but at this moment he was still surprised by Sterling's speed.

Sterling is not tall, but he is very flexible with his feet, has a fast pace, and moves extremely quickly.

Bruno was already at a disadvantage because he wanted to turn around. When he turned around, Sterling had already thrown him away.

<divclass="contentadv">Manchester City fans and commentators cheered: "Clean pass! As expected of Sterling!"

Those who supported Manchester United and Bruno sighed helplessly: It seems that Sterling's breakthrough is indeed unsolvable. Even Bruno can't guard him, so can anyone in Manchester United guard him?

Bruno did not give up, but turned around and chased after him.

At the same time, Manchester United's defensive players are also moving closer to Sterling, intending to block him.

As soon as Sterling saw that he was about to be surrounded, he distributed the football.

After receiving the ball from the wing, Iheanacho broke into the penalty area and then kicked the ball towards the goal. Due to the relatively small angle, the kick was easily blocked by De Gea.

The shooting and defense are not very exciting, there is nothing to say.

After this attack, everyone's focus of discussion was focused on Sterling. The change of direction and acceleration to pass Bruno was clean and neat, without any sloppiness and in one go. It can be said to be a good counterattack against Bruno's previous pass against Iheanacho.

Iheanacho gave Sterling a thumbs up and thanked him for the pass, and Sterling turned and ran back.

………………

Bruno looked at his back from behind and suddenly grinned silently.

Bruno is naturally no stranger to Sterling. This British football genius who was born in the youth training camp of Queens Park Rangers joined Manchester United's rival Liverpool at the age of 15, and then quickly grew into the hottest supernova in today's football.

After winning the European Golden Boy Award in 2014, Sterling switched to Manchester United's other rival Manchester City in the summer of 2015 and quickly established himself as the team's main force.

In Bruno's memory, Sterling's other identity is even more profound in his memory: the spokesperson of happy football!

In his career, there have been countless happy scenes, the most representative of which is his three-pass goal-less performance, and Sterling has become Guardiola's happy boy.

"... Of course, Bruno has to turn the ball around defensively, so he cannot catch up with Sterling in terms of speed. After all, Sterling moves very fast, and his combination of man and ball is also very good. ...A player of his level is really difficult to deal with. It’s not a big deal if he doesn’t pass..."

While Lineker was still giving him reasons and excuses, Bruno had many happy memories in his mind.

………………

Sterling didn't know what his opponent was thinking at the moment. He ran away and turned to face the direction of the attack. He saw Bruno.

Recalling the breakthrough just now, he felt that the opponent in front of him was no different from the opponents he had encountered before. He was about 1.8 meters tall and looked very strong, but his turning speed was slower.

To be honest, Sterling was a little disappointed with this result: Is this the Golden Globe winner?

He originally hoped that the only opponent in Manchester United who could interest him would be stronger so that the game would be fun, but he never expected that he would be so vulnerable.

If he is no different from the ordinary opponents he has encountered before, there is only one goal left for Sterling in this game: three points!

Of course, Sterling also knows that Bruno is not a completely defensive player. His most dangerous thing is his offensive organization ability.

But what does that have to do with him? That is what Fernandinho and the back line should worry about. He only needs to use his breakthroughs to tear apart the opponent's defense, use his goals to defeat the opponent, and bring happiness to the head coach and fans.

………………

Seeing Bruno being shaken away by Sterling so easily, Mourinho frowned slightly on the sidelines.

Before the game, Bruno took the initiative to ask Ying to defend Sterling. He still expressed his hope to Bruno, but he didn't expect that the best player in the team would be ineffective in front of Sterling.

If Bruno, the fastest of the three midfielders, cannot stop Sterling, then it will be even harder for the slower Gundogan and Kante to stop him.

If Sterling cannot be guarded, victory in this game will be just a luxury.

After this attack by Manchester City, Manchester United organized an attack. Bruno made a long pass to find Ibrahimovic in front. The Swedish forward was defeated when competing with Stones for the top, and the ball fell into Manchester City's control.

The football was soon at De Bruyne's feet again and City were on the attack again.

Every time Manchester City attacks, everyone will turn their attention to Sterling, hoping to see him perform wonderfully. The scene of beating Bruno cleanly just now was applauding, and they wanted to see more.

De Bruyne's position was relatively deep, and Kanter did not attack rashly. He guarded the middle.

Bruno's position next to him was more flexible, but he did not go up. He was paying attention to Sterling not far away.

Manchester City has many players who can solve problems, but Sterling is different. If Sterling can be successfully defended, it will definitely boost morale and at the same time give Manchester City some hesitation. So even though he was humiliated by Sterling for the first time, Bruno still had to defend himself.
