Chapter 183: Passing the ball to each other(1/2)
After the game began, Manchester City took advantage of their kick-off opportunity to attack Chelsea's goal.
The football was soon passed to the feet of center Ibrahimovic.
Everyone's focus was on the Swedes.
I want to see what he will do next.
Ibrahimovic is facing the offensive direction at this time, which is a very standard practice for centers.
Hold the ball with your back while attacking.
But will he pass the football out next, or forcefully turn around and shoot?
Ibrahimovic quickly gave the answer.
His upper body twisted to the left, as if he was about to break through from here. Just as the defender turned his attention, his right foot and his right instep bounced the football to the other side.
Football was passed behind all defenders
And right here, Rong Guang came to his horse, and he swung his right foot and shot the ball
"Rong-Danger"
Amid the commentator's exclamation, the football was rubbed into an arc by the glory and went straight toward the back point of the goal
Because all Chelsea players' defensive attention was attracted by Ibrahimovic, I never expected that he would pass the football out, and it would pass it to Rong Guang
So now facing Glory's shot, Chelsea's defense seems to be inadequate.
Although Cech stretched out his arm to pounce the ball, his movements were half a beat slower. He couldn't even get up in the air, just waved his arm upwards...
He didn't touch football.
Of course, football has not risen directly above the beam as some people hope...
Football plunged into the goal
The ball entered
"this"
The entire New Wembley Stadium suddenly became quiet. No one expected that Manchester City's first offense would score in less than a minute after the game started.
Such a goal was something that many people didn't expect...
Manchester City scored a goal just at the beginning of the game, and this goal was scored by Ibrahimovic to Glory.
It's Ibrahimovic's assist to win the glory
Isn’t the relationship between the two of them very badly? Why is Ibrahimovic willing to assist in the game?
In the stands, many people in front of the TV were staring at the stadium in front of them in amazement.
After scoring the goal, Glory ran to the corner flag area to celebrate the goal, but he did not find Ibrahimovic who assisted him.
However, Ibrahimovic had no intention of celebrating with Rongguang. He turned around and ran to the backcourt. Of course, he was hugged by the excited Manchester City players in the middle...
The two of them were celebrating on their own.
It can be seen that their relationship is indeed not very close.
But so what?
They can work together on the court
Isn't this enough?
Victory does not require eleven of the teams to be good friends, but they should know that they are teammates who fight side by side. They can have bad relationships with each other, but they should help each other in the pursuit of victory.
"It seems that Benitez no longer has to worry about the time bomb in the locker room..." John Motterson smiled.
"This scene will definitely disappoint many Manchester City opponents." Alan Hansen also said.
"If Benitez can solve the problem of Rong and Ibrahimovic, then Sneijder, Manchester City's offensive trident will be very terrifying. Such a team's goal is not just to achieve good results in the Premier League, but also to the Champions League..."
※※※
After Glory scored, Benitez stood up from his seat and applauded with the others.
In fact, he had never worried about the problems that the media was worried about.
Not only him, but other Manchester City players have never been worried.
Because after the team started tactical training, it was confirmed that Rongguang must be the team's offensive core, and all offenses must be played around him, even Ibrahimovic is no exception.
Ibrahimovic himself did not object or protest to this arrangement, and he cooperated very well in training, so Benitez was not worried about the contradiction between Ibrahimovic and Glory. Although he did not know why Ibrahimovic did not raise objections, the important thing is that this is the actual situation.
Of course, Benitez also prepared a backup plan - once Rongguang is deeply surrounded by the other party and cannot exert his strength, or if Rongguang has any accidents - of course, Benitez does not want this kind of thing to happen, but whether this kind of thing happens does not depend on Benitez's personal wishes.
Once there is something unexpected about Glory, Ibrahimovic can stand up and become the team's offensive core. He will not disappoint him.
Or the existence of Ibrahimovic would have reduced the defensive pressure on Glory to prevent him from being stared at by the opponent's defender.
Ibrahimovic's super personal ability and glorious personal ability are not the result of "one plus one equals two", but will be stronger
※※※
Sure enough, after Glory's goal, while Manchester City players were still celebrating the goal wildly, the TV cut gave Ancelotti a close-up.
In the picture, the Italian frowned and looked very upset.
In the past, Manchester City had the most threatening glory. He could also make targeted arrangements when arranging defense.
Now, in addition to a glory, Ibrahimovic has also come...
When you stare at a glory in the defense, Ibrahimovic can also solve the battle. If you divide the troops to defend Ibrahimovic, then the defensive pressure on Glory will be much lighter. With his ability, he can definitely break free...
He had previously expected Rongguang and Ibrahimovic to be in disagreement. Now it seems that Ibrahimovic has taken the initiative to pass the ball to Rongguang. How bad can the relationship between them be?
※※※
When the game started again, Chelsea players suddenly became thwarted while defending.
Because they are confused when defending now - will Glory and Ibrahimovic still pass the ball to each other?
They all thought Ibrahimovic would not pass the ball, but he passed the football to Glory, causing the goal to be lost.
Now every time Ibrahimovic gets the ball, Chelsea players will be swaying in their hearts and don’t know how to defend.
So what about when Glory takes the ball?
For example now.
Rong Guang took the ball on the right side, and the defender was Chelsea's left-back Ashley Cole. This is a battle-hardened left-back with rich experience and ability. After Roberto Carlos and Maldini, he has long been considered the number one left-back in actual football.
But now he is a little embarrassed when facing glory...
While receiving the ball, Rongguang made a move to cut inside. He stopped the ball inside. When Ashley Cole leaned over, his right foot suddenly pushed the ball outside.
Ashley Cole quickly turned around and walked out to block glory.
At this moment, Rong Guang's inner instep gently pushed the football forward, and the football penetrated between Ashley Cole's legs.
At that time, Cole was completing his second turn, and he had no ability to turn around again.
He could only watch the football pass through between his legs, and then the glory passed by him like the wind.
He finally turned around and turned to chase after him. But with the speed of Glory's dribbling, how could he catch up?
Now he can only hope that his teammates in the penalty area can force Rongguang and compress him into a place as close as possible to the bottom line. In this way, even if Rongguang wants to shoot, the shooting angle will become very small.
It seems that his teammates were planning to do this, and they rushed to the glory and surrounded him in all directions.
At this moment, Rongguang swung his right leg.
If you get it, you have to force the shot before the encirclement is closed?
When Rong Guang's right foot kicked the football, he did not shoot, but...
He knocked the ball horizontally into the front door
Football drilled between John Terry and Ivanovic
And the person following in the middle is...
"Ibrahimovic--" John Motson roared in a long voice.
Amid his roar, Ibrahimovic raised his foot and stopped the football that was passing glory.
Yes, at the critical moment, he stopped the ball
Then he kicked up again and the football rolled into the goal from the forward of Cech who was rushing back.
Cech's pounce didn't hit anything...
"The ball is scored, the ball is scored, the ball is scored," John Mortson shouted.
When he shouted, he still had a little incredible tone...
"Just twelve minutes into the game, Manchester City has already led Chelsea with two goals. This may be the most disparate opening I have ever seen. But in theory, with the strength between Manchester City and Chelsea, they shouldn't have such a big gap..."
Yes, although Chelsea did not beat Manchester City last season, in both the league and the league championship, the strength gap between the two teams was not so big - Manchester City scored two Chelsea goals in less than 15 minutes of the game. If this continues, will it be a massacre in this game?
Not to mention John Motson, even Manchester City fans were a little surprised. They didn't expect their team to lead by two goals so easily.
To be continued...
