Football's No. 1 Prodigal Son

Chapter 190



The draw was a good one, and the winner will be the winner.

This is undoubtedly a good draw for Manchester City.

It seems that Johansson, the fat old man, is willing to spend money.

In this case, I really have to work hard for this old man's election.

After the draw, Manchester City will face the challenge of Chelsea in the league.

This game is undoubtedly a decisive battle, and whoever wins will be the top of the list.

For the media, this is simply the Spring Festival Gala of the Premier League.

All kinds of pre-match predictions are also overwhelming, and because Manchester City is at home, more people are optimistic about Manchester City.

Lineker wrote in his column: "Manchester City is a very magical team. They are very young, but also very strong. After the thrilling Istanbul battle last season, I believe they can face any tough battle."

There are also supporters of Chelsea, such as Mr. David Jones.

He wrote in his column: "Since the start of the game, Chelsea has given people a sense of stability. Although they don't win much every time, it is also difficult for them to let the opponent break the goal. In the strong dialogue, defense is crucial. I am optimistic that Chelsea will not lose in this game."

Yang Luo finally smiled with relief when he saw his column.

David Jones finally looked down on Manchester City again, and my youth is back!

Manchester City's personnel are now relatively complete, and all players except Fabregas can play.

The team also rotated in the last game. Except for Essien and Uifalusi who played the whole game, the other players got enough rest.

Of course, Essien's body is now in good condition, so Yang Luo still put him in the starting lineup for this game.

Manchester City's starting lineup for this game is Cech, Maicon, Kompany, Distin, Evra, Makelele, Essien, Ronaldinho, Robben, Ronaldo and Torres.

Xabi Alonso and Kaka are on standby at any time, ready to give Chelsea a Tian Ji horse race in the second half.

Chelsea's starting lineup is Cudicini, Paulo Ferreira, Carvalho, Terry, Gallas, Tymoshchuk, Lampard, Joe Cole, Joaquin, Duff and Drogba.

This is also their strongest lineup.

However, their physical condition is worse than Manchester City. Many main players played the whole game in the last league.

After the players entered the field, Tuchel shook hands with Mourinho on the sidelines.

Mourinho's eyes passed through the Germans and looked at Yang Luo not far away.

He knew that this oriental talent was the real boss of Manchester City.

Yang Luo also felt his gaze and smiled at him.

Mourinho raised his eyebrows.

After everything was ready, the referee Howard Webb blew the whistle to start the game!

This game should be one of the most important games for both sides this season, so Chelsea was very cautious at the beginning. They stabilized their formation and waited for Manchester City's attack.

Yang Luo could of course guess Mourinho's tactics, so his requirement for the players was to crush them with offense!

In the fifth minute, Manchester City got the ball in the midfield, and Makelele gave the ball to Ronaldinho.

Ronaldinho retreated to receive the ball, and Tymoshchuk behind him had already come up.

Mourinho's task for him was to entangle Ronaldinho and prevent him from organizing the attack comfortably.

But how could Ronaldinho be stopped by a lonely guy? He just made a feint, and his feet flicked on the ball a few times like a butterfly through flowers, and directly got rid of the Ukrainian defense!

However, with Mourinho's defensive skills, he certainly knew that one Tymoshchuk was far from enough.

Lampard quickly made up for the defense and poked the ball at the moment when Ronaldinho passed his teammates.

The ball was out of Ronaldinho's control and rolled to the right.

Robben quickly stepped forward and prepared to take the ball.

But Gallas had already cleared the ball before him!

Joe Cole stopped the ball and was about to turn around and dribble forward, but he ran into the black iron tower Essien.

Under the physical confrontation, Joe Cole staggered a few steps and naturally lost the ball.

After Essien got the ball, he did not stop and rushed forward with the ball!

After dribbling the ball to the 30-meter area, he handed the ball to Robben and moved forward into the penalty area.

Robben took a few steps sideways and suddenly made a straight pass!

Essien understood and suddenly accelerated and got the ball in the ribs of the penalty area!

He glanced at the middle of the penalty area and made a direct cross pass!

Torres strode forward and wanted to grab the ball!

But Terry got in front of him and destroyed the ball out of the baseline!

The Manchester City fans at the scene sighed in disappointment.

Just a little bit short!

And Mourinho on the sidelines had a glittering look in his eyes.

This Essien is really good!

He can attack and defend, can be salty or sweet, and has invincible physical strength. If he partners with Lampard, the picture is simply too beautiful.

Unfortunately...

However, the situation on the field does not allow Mourinho to think too much, because Manchester City still has to take a corner kick.

This corner kick Manchester City did not pass the ball directly, but passed the ball to Maicon at the corner of the penalty area.

Maicon looked at the situation in the penalty area and suddenly chose to pass the ball horizontally!

And that was exactly where Essien was!

Lampard had realized the danger here, and he stepped forward to block his shot!

But Essien suddenly took advantage of the situation and dribbled the ball to his left foot, then shot it directly!

The football rushed to the upper left corner of the goal like a cannonball!

Cudicini stretched his body to the limit, but still couldn't reach the ball!

The football hit the goal heavily!

One to zero!

The fans at the scene burst into a huge wave of sound, and it seemed that the whole stadium was shaking.

Unexpectedly, Manchester City could take the lead in the first six minutes!

This is of great significance to the whole game!

Lineker shouted in the studio: "Wow, super world wave! This ball is an absolute dead corner, and the goalkeeper has no way to deal with it!"

Alan Hansen added: "I didn't expect this beast-like player to have such a great long-range shooting skill!"

Essien was very excited after scoring the goal. For him, scoring a goal is a very rare thing, let alone in a game of this level!

He excitedly ran to the home team fans and interacted with them passionately!

Yang Luo on the sidelines clenched his fists tightly. Once the ball was out, the team had at least won half the game!

Next, Chelsea had to choose to attack, and Manchester City would have more opportunities!

Tuchel waved his fists excitedly, and then clapped his hands with Yang Luo to celebrate.

Through the German, Yang Luo saw Mourinho with a depressed look on his face.

At this time, Mourinho kept circling an idea in his mind: When we offered Essien, why didn't we offer a little more? Maybe it would work?
