Chapter 66: Changing coaches like changing knives?
When Robinho fell to the ground, many people were so used to laugh at him for not entering the empty door again.
But what happened next made them stunned.
The football hit the net and fell into the goal after losing all its power. This was an undisputed goal
Robinho looked at the football in the net and climbed up from the ground. He did not run wildly, nor did he jump into samba or make strange moves when he scored the ball.
He just roared to the sky and screamed.
He vented all the stuffy breath in his heart and turned it into a roar.
On the one hand, he was really bored and couldn't run anymore...
As he did this, Glory was next to him, looking at him, but did not come forward to disturb him.
When he finished venting his inner emotions and lowered his head, he saw the glory in front of him.
He opened his arms and hugged Glory hard.
"Thank you, Rong"
He said.
"No need to thank you, Robbie, this is your chance to make it yourself. I just passed the ball to you." Rongguang said in his ear with a smile.
Even so, Robinho is still very grateful for the glory.
Of course, Glory just passed the football to himself.
But if it weren't for his previous series of exciting breakthroughs, how could he faced this opportunity that was almost an empty goal?
It was just a joke that he didn't enter the empty goal. He only had three times before. Overall, it was an excellent opportunity. Rong Guang almost gave the goal opportunity with both hands and held it in front of him. The final kick of the ball was a bit difficult because he was exhausted. In fact, it was a great cross.
In any case, he should also thank the glorious selflessness.
In the last FA Cup, he still envied Berbatov in the stands, and now he doesn't have to envy the Bulgarians anymore.
He also scored a goal.

"Beautiful 90% of the credit for this goal must be remembered on Rong's body with the speed of lightning. He received the ball in front of everyone, and then a series of breakthroughs attracted all Portsmouth's defensive players to him. When Robinho ran into the penalty area, there was an empty goal in front of him. This time, he did not fail to enter the empty goal again. Although the process was a bit heartbreaking, he finally shot the football into the goal and locked the victory for Manchester City."
Mortson kept saying angrily.
Alan Hansen nodded next to him, but did not comment.
If Robinho still couldn't score this goal, he should have stolen himself. What a good opportunity for him... And Rong Guang obviously considered that Robinho was not as fast as him and might not be able to come in time, so the last cross was very particular. He did not pass directly to the goal, so the speed would be faster and James would be even more unresponsive. However, Robinho might not catch up with the ball at all, and he would not enter in an empty goal...
When the Glory passed, he deliberately passed the football back and passed an inverted triangle, so that even if Robinho ran slower, he still had a chance to catch up. The facts also proved that this is true. If this ball happened more than ten minutes into the game, Robinho would not have played so embarrassedly.
This ball is really not difficult for him.
What is "no entry into the emperor in the empty gate" is just a media ridicule and the fans' swearing. If anyone really believes that Robinho's shooting skills are so bad, he will be really naive.

"Okay" Benitez jumped out of the seat after Robinho scored, slapped hard, and shouted.
This is a heartfelt voice.
Rong Guang and Berbatov, Rong Guang and Robinho, he just connected the two of them.
The "Manchester City Trident" that the media has always said before has begun to take shape now
How to make this trident one? Benitez hopes that Glory plays a crucial role here. Now it seems that this first step Glory has been completed well.
Rongguang is not the kind of player who stands in place, controls the team rhythm by passing the ball and assists his teammates. Although he is a big midfielder, his playing style does not think of the "classical midfielder" in people's impressions. He is very similar to Kaka, a modern midfielder who relies on his own personal ability to score.
At the same time, assisting teammates and organizing offenses are also completed in high-speed sports.
Compared with Robinho's dribbling, Rong Guang's breakthrough is sharper and easier to attract the opponent's defensive attention. When he surrounds three to four defensive players alone, there will inevitably be loopholes in the opponent's defense line, that is, opportunities, just look at whether he can see the gap and pass the football out...
This is from a tactical perspective, how Benitez wants to make Glory the core - in addition to scoring his own shot, Glory must also help his teammates score and activate the entire team's offensive. In this way, Manchester City's offensive tactics have a core, and the players have a direction when attacking.
At the same time, the biggest difference between Benitez's set and Mark Hughes is that it fully utilizes glorious assisting skills.
Benitez has studied Glory. In Werder Bremen and Bayern Munich, Glory has the ability to assist. He once completed a hat-trick assist in a Champions League group match. So it is wrong to say that Glory is a "lone wolf" who can only score on his own.
Benitez has considered choosing to coach Manchester City for a long time. He carefully studied the personnel composition and tactical arrangements of this team, and then made plans in his mind, imagining how he would tie them up and how to formulate tactics if he came to coach this team.
After thinking all this out, he agreed to Manchester City's invitation to serve as Manchester City's head coach.
He has a great ambition.
When he was at Liverpool, he lost the Champions League championship in 205. This dark history has always been with him and it is also the reason Liverpool found when he fired him. The root of everything comes from that game.
He wants to prove to the senior management of Liverpool Club and to the media that he is capable of winning the Champions League. Since Liverpool doesn't give me this opportunity, I will achieve it in Manchester City
So he coached Manchester City, he really went for the Champions League championship, which is really similar to Glory...
Now seeing Manchester City's performance, he is more confident in leading the team to win the Champions League.
If Benitez's wish is known, it will definitely be considered arrogant - Manchester City is still working hard to stay in the Premier League next season, you dare to fantasize about the Champions League championship. This step is too big, right?
Take too big steps, be careful to pull the egg

After Robinho scored, Portsmouth lost the ability to resist.
Now they have no room for struggle - want to counterattack and equalize the score? How can they break through Manchester City's defense line if they are not pressed on the entire line? Even if Manchester City's defense line is too low, they will not lose two goals in a row when the situation is very good, right? And there is not much time left. If they pressed on the entire line, how can they ensure that their goal will not be pierced by Glory, Berbatov or Robinho again?
No matter how you choose, it is wrong, which naturally makes Portsmouth players have no fighting spirit.
In the end, Manchester City defeated Portsmouth 20 away with goals from Glory and Robinho, finally ending their embarrassing record of eleven-round league defeats.
At the post-match press conference, Benitez said he was happy to see the team win, but "It's not worth being happy, after all, our goal is not just a victory in this game. There is still half a season and we are not out of danger..."
"Robinho scored the goal in the game, does this mean that his main position has been stable again?" A reporter said to have asked.
Benitez shook his head: "No one has a solid position. I will make decisions on the starting lineup every week based on the training status and performance of the players during the week."
He didn't even praise Robinho, but that's his style...
Therefore, after Benitez left Liverpool, few Liverpool players even spoke for him. He was not a likable head coach in the locker room...
If the team's performance is not good, he will definitely be unstable in the coaching position.
Now that the team has just won the ball, there should be no discordant voices coming out.
But it's hard to say in the future - Portsmouth is not a very strong team after all. For Manchester City, they have many games in the second half of the season when they collided with strong teams on the road, which is the most deadly thing.
In the first half of the season, Manchester City played against Manchester United, Liverpool, Chelsea and Arsenal, the traditional Premier League semi-finals were all at their own home courts, and they only won one game against Liverpool in these games at their own home courts.
And in the second half of the season, they will face these four teams away, which will be even more difficult to play...
No one is optimistic about Benitez's future coaching at Manchester City. Manchester City has spent so much money and needs to make results immediately, so they often have no patience.
Benitez has no ability to conquer the picky Americans in Liverpool. Faced with the more impatient Abu Dhabi consortium, his life will not be much better than being in Liverpool...
The next day, the results of other leagues in this round were released, so Manchester City's ranking after the end of this round of league matches can also be determined. After Manchester City beat Portsmouth in this round, they scored 23 points and their league ranking rose to 12th. Compared with the other teams with 23 points, they scored more goals and had the most goals, so among several teams with the same points, Manchester City can rank at the forefront.
Manchester City's performance is gradually improving, from the lowest 18th place to the current 12th place, which has allowed many innocent Manchester City fans to see hope.
Is it really like changing the coach? It’s time to operate after changing the head coach team?
