In fact, Guardiola was foolish today, but unfortunately he couldn't deceive Enrique.

Before the game, he claimed that Manchester City's two right-backs now have doubts about their injuries and may not meet the conditions for participating. Such an important highlight of the Champions League group stage, you can't make do with the second team young players, so the outside world thinks

Manchester City will still play as three defenders.

When the roster was submitted the first day before the game, Manchester City suddenly announced that Sabaleta had returned and entered the starting lineup.

Okay, I suffered a big loss at Camp Nou two weeks ago. This time Guardiola must have resumed the four-guard formation, otherwise why would Sabaleta be so anxious?

Only when the game started, everyone suddenly realized that the stubborn and stubborn Guardiola still played as the three defenders.

Otamendira is very right-handed, and the nominal right-back Zabaleta is more in position than the back midfielder Febion, and the two wings of the Trident are retreating,

There are actually six people working in the midfield at Manchester City.

3-6-1, Guardiola made a fake shot, trying to use the advantage of midfield numbers to suppress Barcelona's pass and cut, making Barcelona's offense and defense rhythm unable to be coherent.

But Enrique's tactics are very simple today, especially Barcelona's speed through the midfield is very fast and he doesn't get entangled with Manchester City at all. He often passes it to the front msn for a long pass. To put it bluntly, it's a defensive counterattack.

Although Barcelona does not deliberately pursue passes and cuts, they are still the ancestors of passes and cuts. Even if they do not specifically create ball possession, their feet are still more delicate than Manchester City.

The advantage of Manchester City's midfielder has become a decoration, and there is no chance to snatch it up on the spot. He can only follow the Barcelona people behind the butt, as if he owes money to collect debts.

After playing in the first half, Manchester City fell behind 0:1 at home, and all technical statistics including ball possession rate were at a slight disadvantage.

However, today's Barcelona is not without weaknesses. They are as smart as Guardiola, and they have keenly grasped them through 45 minutes of observation.

Barcelona is still the number one in Europe on paper, but since Zhuo Yang was there, there has been a weakness - substitute. The first on paper refers to Barcelona's regular starting lineup, but they have always lacked the ability to be perfect from the bench.

A powerful figure standing up.

Especially after Zhuo Yang and Guardiola left one after another, Barcelona's aging starting lineup has been strongly supplemented over the years, Scar, Neymar, Alba and Suarez, but the strength on the bench is weaker than before.

Especially in the midfield and backcourt, Pique and Alba were injured. Today, Barcelona pulled Mago back to the middle and played with Umtiti in the center. They could only play Digne and Roberto on the left and right.

Digne has no speed, which is very fatal on Barcelona's wing. Roberto will be very powerful in the future, but not yet.

In the first half, msn's activity covered the mediocrity of Barcelona's two full-backs, and Manchester City players were only concerned about the deployment in the midfield as they were pre-match and were exhausted and did not make good use of their opponent's weaknesses.

Moreover, although Little Ma Ge is fine, he is not as complementary as Pique by the side of Umtiti, who is still a little immature. Both of them are in the prejudice-based style and have the same style.

During the halftime break, Guardiola ordered the team to continue three defenders, and Sabaleta was an inappropriate full-back. He also allowed Gundogan and De Bruyne to move forward slightly, forming a double in front of Febiong.

Front midfielder.

We won't play midfield anymore, we just aim at the two full-backs behind Barcelona and the ribs on the defense line.

Enrique also knows the weaknesses of his team, but weaknesses are always relative, and it depends on the performance on the spot. This is a matter of one's rise and the other's fall.

For the protection of the two full-backs, Enrique's tactical arrangement was handled by Andre Gomez and Rakitic, but Manchester City put very little pressure on this aspect in the first half, which saved us trouble.

But after the opening of the second half, Manchester City was different after being advised by the clever and hairless Guardiola.

Barcelona's tactics have not changed, but Manchester City's two front midfielders are targeting Roberto and Digne. In addition, Sterling and Silva are not good at wings at all, so Barcelona immediately became a little busy.

.

In the 51st minute, Ding Dign broke through Digne's entanglement on the right side of the center line, dribbled the ball along the sideline, and finally passed the ball to Sterling who was interspersing diagonally with him.

Sterling rushed in with the ball, and Maggie and Umtiti snatched it side by side. Sterling was not only happy, but also very clever. He knew the distance was too close, but he still took a step forward, because he happened to be in the penalty area.

It's inside.

He had his right foot, and then he changed direction to the right. Umtiti pounced too hard and hit Sterling's right foot after he changed direction.

There was definitely contact, but Sterling was deliberately looking for a penalty kick, so he performed too exaggeratedly after success, and his front pounce was unbearable to look at him.

I was afraid that I would not attract the attention of the referee, so I felt like a fake fall.

Kaushoi is no longer the Hungarian whistle that was blew his confused whistle back then. He has been trained by UEFA for so many years and has become clear and can't hide anything from him.

Even fake falls cannot be hidden.

Not only did Kaushoi not give Manchester City a penalty, he also warned Sterling with a yellow card. To be honest, Umtiti couldn't believe it.

Although this offense has turned good things into bad things because of Sterling's exaggerated acting skills, it undoubtedly made Manchester City players find the trick.

In the 53rd minute, Gundogan looked at Roberto and hit him behind him, forcing Rakitic to let go of the tackle to stop him. Kaochoi was in business and also gave Rakitic a yellow card.

"During training and competition, I sometimes stop to see Messi. I have to thank God for allowing me to fight side by side with Messi. Even the love letter I wrote to my wife, I sincerely praise Messi.

Messi is unique, and he can run for him for 10,000 meters, even if his back hurts, it is worth it." - Rakitic

Now Rakitic is known as the group leader of the "Messi fan group" and the number one Mei Chui in football.

Gundogan, who was overturned by Rakitic, dare not say that he is in good condition, but he must be the most lucky one in Manchester City's team at the moment. He picked up two empty goals at the Hawthorn Stadium three days ago and scored twice, and he was absolutely confident.

In the 57th minute, Silva and Kolarov suddenly pressed Roberto near the corner of the frontcourt, but he could only pass the football to the middle in a hurry and tried to hand it over to Xiao Bu.

Xiao Bu never expected that he could be so second. Aguero was snatched away by a moment of silence. After breaking the football, Akun passed Sterling directly from the top of the arc to the right.

It was behind Digne again, but this time, Kuaisao Lin didn't go to the penalty kick anymore. He quickly dribbled the ball down to the waistline of the penalty area, and then passed the ball horizontally to the back point, and the line pressed the small penalty area line.

It is said that Gundogan scores a goal easily, just picking up bargains or empty goals, but he doesn't know that he can run to the position of picking up bargains, which is a fairy-like skill, a very superb running position without the ball.

The football passed by the goal and rushed past Ter Stegen, who was just beyond his reach. Gundoan magically appeared at the back post. With his foot raised, he found another empty door.

1:1, Manchester City tied the score.

At this time, Enrique also discovered that Guardiola had caught Barcelona's seven inches, but he was not without a way to deal with it. Without a suitable full-back replacement, Enrique set an abacus in the midfield.

After re-teletting, Barcelona replaced Rakitic and A Gomez in three minutes, and replaced Arda Turan and Rafinia.
Chapter completed!
