Chapter 742
Guardiola is telling Cancelo about the new tactics to be used in the second half in the Manchester City locker room!
"We are now using a pressure-bomb defensive tactic, which is effective but not significant because we haven't broken the crust of Liverpool's cake!"
"We have to press harder, so Cancelo, you can do it!"
"In the second half, don't participate in defense anymore. When the front court is pressing, you rush forward to press together. Use your speed and offensive power to help the front court press!"
"We have to completely cut off Liverpool's backcourt passes and then counterattack!"
"Last season we were ahead of Liverpool, but then they equalised. This happened in two consecutive games. Now they are ahead of us, but we don't want to equalise, we want to overtake!"
Guardiola did not make any substitutions and the second half began!
The 59th minute of the game!
"Liverpool's backcourt pass was from Alisson to Van Dijk, and Manchester City still implemented a bomb-like pressure, but Cancelo rushed up!"
“Is Guardiola going to ask the full-backs to press as well?”
After Cancelo rushed up, Grealish, Foden and Jesus pressed at the same time and quickly formed a very intense pressure on Liverpool's backcourt!
Guardiola just thought he had achieved the effect he wanted, but Lin Chen immediately saw the opportunity to attack!
Cancelo rushed out and Stones went to defend Salah, which meant that Liverpool let Bernardo Silva follow them alone!
Although there is De Bruyne, the speed of these two is definitely not fast enough compared to myself!
As long as Salah can attract Stones on the right, he can get a long pass from the backcourt along the right, and Liverpool will no longer need to play short passes!
He started immediately. Lin Chen didn't look behind him at first. He bypassed Salah, got rid of Bernardo Silva and sprinted along the right. Only then did he look back at Arnold!
Bernardo Silva is definitely one of the most capable midfielders, but he faced the most capable midfielder!
"Arnold made a long pass from the backcourt!"
Arnold's long pass should be exchanged for his defensive ability, otherwise it would never be so accurate!
Lin Chen just looked back while sprinting, and Arnold's long pass had already bypassed Stones and Bernardo Silva, and just landed on the white line on the right side of the penalty area!
Laporte is Lin Chen's teammate in the Spanish national team, and he knows very well what Lin Chen will do next, so Laporte rushed to the landing point and jumped with all his strength.
If I fail to intercept the ball the first time and let Lin Chen get it, it will be even more impossible for me to defend against Lin Chen the second time!
Laporte was about to jump, but Lin Chen, who was not far away, took a run-up and then jumped suddenly. He headed the ball slightly above Laporte, and pushed it forward in a small jump so that the ball could fall behind Laporte.
Then when Lin Chen landed, his knees bent sharply due to the downward force when he stepped on the grass, and then quickly tightened and bounced up!
Lin Chen and the ball were like two springs of different sizes, one high and one low, one left and one right, bouncing past Laporte from above and to the right!
Ederson saw Lin Chen preparing to stop the ball and rushed out to catch the ball in front of Lin Chen's feet.
But Lin Chen, who was just about to stop the ball, kicked the ball directly towards the goal!
Just after Ederson had just attacked, Lin Chen picked up the ball and sent it to the back center of the goal, and it fell into the goal over Ederson's head!
"Seven goals in two games!"
"Kane and Salah, who are now at the top of the Premier League scorer list, have only scored 12 goals!"
"Lin Chen, who missed so many games due to injury, rejoined the Golden Boot race in just two games!"
