Football's No. 1 Prodigal Son

Chapter 181



After three days of exams, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Of course, some are happy while others are sad.

Yang Luo, Nanmen, Shearer and others passed the exam easily, only Comrade Roy Keane was stuck in the written exam.

After the exam, those who passed the exam had a meal together.

Of course, Roy Keane definitely didn't go, he was depressed now.

During the meal, they got to know each other well and had some friendship with each other.

If Nanmen really became the head coach in the future like he would in a few years, Yang Luo would have to hope that he would not do such unethical things as organizing friendly matches to get people injected with closed cards.

Of course, whether Nanmen was a good person or not was another matter.

At this point, Yang Luo couldn't help but think of Phil Jones, a young and promising rising star, but was completely ruined by injuries.

After returning to Manchester, Yang Luo rested for two days and began to prepare for the game again.

Fiona couldn't help but joked: "It would be great if you could be as competent as the club owner as you are in the team."

Yang Luo smiled: "People always say that people are useless when they are idle!"

As expected, the players who participated in international competitions returned to the team with fatigue.

Yang Luo was helpless, but there was nothing he could do.

Who made the people in our team the pillars of the national team in their prime?

Fortunately, the next opponent was the mid-level team West Ham United. Although Manchester City rotated, they were still able to win the opponent with a score of 2 to 1.

Although the score was close, the advantage Manchester City showed on the field was far more than this score.

It can be said to be a small score.

Three days later, Manchester City defeated Sparta Prague 2-0 in an away game in the Champions League, winning three consecutive group matches.

After three rounds of matches, Manchester City ranked first in the group with three consecutive wins and nine points, Ajax ranked second with one win and one draw and four points, Thun ranked third with three points, and Sparta Prague ranked fourth with one point.

As long as Manchester City wins the next game, it can ensure that they will qualify from the group!

This is also what Yang Luo expected, after all, this grouping is too good.

Although Johansson arranged a grouping for Yang Luo, he did not look for Yang Luo after that.

This old man is very patient. He is not in a hurry to fulfill this favor. Instead, he is ready to let Yang Luo keep this matter in mind all the time.

Yang Luo doesn't care. Anyway, he will try his best to help in the election next year, and then he and Johansson will be clear.

Both of them are sensible people, and some exchanges of interests do not need to be made too clear.

After playing Sparta Prague, Manchester City went directly to London to prepare for the next Premier League game.

And their opponent is Arsenal!

This is the first time they have played against each other since Manchester City defeated Arsenal at their home ground last season.

But now the two teams are in completely different situations.

After selling Vieira, Arsenal's team's strength has obviously declined a lot, which has also caused them to encounter some twists and turns in recent games, and now they are only ranked eighth in the standings.

Manchester City is making great strides and still ranks first in the standings with the advantage of goal difference.

In the head-on confrontation between the two teams, more people are optimistic about Manchester City now.

Yang Luo sometimes thinks that Wenger chose to sell Vieira, and he probably feels very frustrated.

Now Arsenal can only be stretched financially to repair the stadium.

Wenger is also struggling to maintain this stadium.

It can be said that without Wenger's painstaking management, Arsenal would have fallen behind in the arms race long ago.

It's a pity that Wenger, who was so attentive, didn't get a decent departure.

In this game, Manchester City still arranged a 4231 formation, goalkeeper Cech, back line Maicon, Uifalusi, Distin, Evra, midfielder Xabi Alonso, Essien, Ronaldinho, Robben, Ronaldo, striker Torres.

On the Arsenal side, the starting lineup is Lehmann, Lauren, Toure, Campbell, Ashley Cole, Ljungberg, Flamini, Gilberto, Pires, Henry and Van Persie.

The midfield line is missing Vieira, but the hardness has dropped a lot.

And Yang Luo's task for the team is to start directly from the middle and break through their defense!

At the beginning of the game, Arsenal took advantage of the home court and began to launch a fierce attack on Manchester City's defense.

And Yang Luo is not a conservative coach,

He directly asked the players to attack and fight against Arsenal!

For a while, the scene was very beautiful.

In the ninth minute, Arsenal got the ball in the frontcourt and passed the ball to Van Persie.

Van Persie passed the ball to Henry, who did not hesitate and chose to shoot directly from the penalty area line.

Unfortunately, the ball was slightly off the goal.

In the 21st minute, Manchester City got the ball in the backcourt. After Maicon advanced to the midfield, he passed the ball to Ronaldinho.

But Maicon did not return to his defensive position, but continued to move forward!

Gilberto Silva saw his little brother from the national team coming forward, and he did not dare to neglect it, and moved his steps towards him.

Only Flamini was left in front of Ronaldinho.

But Flamini was no match for Vieira, and Ronaldinho shook him off with just a few fake moves!

Then Ronaldinho started to run with the ball and rushed towards the opponent's penalty area!

For a moment, Ronaldo on the left, Robben and Maicon on the right, and Torres in front, all ran and observed Ronaldinho, preparing to facilitate his next step of handling the ball.

At this time, Arsenal's midfield line had been completely lost, and only Gilberto Silva and a retreating defense line were left in front of the attacking players!

Gilberto Silva saw that the situation was not good, so he had to choose to give up Maicon and chase Ronaldinho.

But Ronaldinho was waiting for this moment, and he passed the ball directly to Robben who was cutting inside.

After receiving the ball, Robben took a step inside, and then passed it to Maicon who was advancing into the penalty area!

Maicon squeezed into the penalty area beside Kolo Toure, and Robben's through pass happened to come to his feet!

He took the ball, looked up and observed Lehmann's position, and chose to shoot directly!

The ball was so powerful that Lehmann could not save it in time and could only watch the ball jump into the lower left corner of the goal!

One to zero!

Manchester City took the lead away from home!

Although the ball was finally scored by two players on the right, the initiator of the attack was actually Ronaldinho in the middle!

The decline in Arsenal's midfield hardness is also a very important factor, which allows Manchester City to easily break through the defense in the middle!

In other words, Arsenal has become weaker now!
