Green Journey

Chapter 271 Surprise!It's a little short!

On the field, with the passage of time, after Manchester City penetrated through a large number of short passes in the frontcourt and threatened Leicester City's goal many times, the players became more confident and cooperated more and more tacitly.

Especially in the right half where David Silva is located, this top Spanish midfielder relied on his top-level vision, dribbling and ball delivery, and sent many penetrating passes. CityU found Sterling and Aguero in the restricted area.

Therefore, the two Manchester City forwards, Sterling and Aguero, took turns behind Morgan and Huth with their top starting speed.

In the 21st minute of the game, Manchester City won a left corner kick.

This is the fourth corner kick Manchester City got in the first half of the game, and 7 players came up directly from the penalty area to participate in this corner kick attack.

As for Leicester City, except for Vardy who stayed ahead and waited for the opportunity to counterattack, the other 9 people all entered the penalty area for defense.

Kolarov quickly sent the corner kick.

Chu Zheng marked Yaya Toure in the middle and saw the ball flying along the baseline. He and Toure took off at almost the same time to compete for the top.

In the end, there was no suspense. Chu Zheng's take-off height once again crushed all the players in the penalty area.

But Chu Zheng still didn't win the header.

Kolarov's kick was very high, and the ball went along the bottom line of the penalty area to the front and back of the goal and turned to the right front of the penalty area.

The landing point is in the penalty area line on the right rib at the top of the arc.

Sterling, who was cruising on the free throw arc, quickly chased back to the right rib area after seeing it.

But when he came to the wing to get the ball, Leicester City had already pushed out of the penalty area, and the two defensive lines in the midfield and backcourt quickly formed, once again making the fence inside and outside the penalty area unbreakable.

Sterling turned around with the ball and stopped on the wing, confronting Kanter who was defending in front of him.

Kanter didn't go up for the first time, and he stood in front of Sterling.

Sterling looked at Kanter, who was thinner than him, and did not dare to act rashly. At the same time, he could feel the pressure Kanter brought him.

In the Premier League this season, no Premier League striker dared to say that he could easily pass Kanter.

Sterling is no exception. Counting the first round of the fight, he has been deflated several times by Kanter.

Seeing Yaya Toure enter the right rib area at the top of the arc, coming towards him, and responding, Sterling raised his foot and passed.

Kanter was half a beat slow, and after seeing the ball go past his outstretched right toe, he quickly turned and returned to the defense.

In the right rib area of ​​the top of the arc, Yaya Toure took the ball with his back to the top of the arc.

Before he could completely stop the ball, Chu Zheng rushed up from behind him, his posture was extremely fast.

Whether it was Yaya Toure who was ready for the impact, or Chu Zheng staggered a little when his body made contact for the first time.

"Chu!!"

"Chu!!!"

"Chu!!!!" Seeing Chu Zheng clung to Yaya Toure, the cheers of the Leicester City fans also resounded through the Etihad Stadium.

On the field, Yaya Toure quickly made the right choice.

He staggered after being bumped and half turned his back to the penalty area, stuck Chu Zheng behind his back and quickly passed the ball back to Delph in the middle.

"Tsk tsk! Chu Zheng's current physical fitness can really be said to be among the top players in the Premier League." Seeing Yaya Toure's slightly embarrassed appearance just now, Zhan Jun said with a wider smile on his face.

"I'm so relieved to have a successor!" Fan Zhiyi also saw it with a smile on his face.

What level of player is Yaya Tourena?

That is a legendary top player in football, and his physical confrontation ability at his peak can kill [-]% of the world's football players in seconds.

Although Yaya Toure's state has declined in recent years, it is not so embarrassing in the confrontation.

In the physical confrontation with Chu Zheng just now, Yaya Tourei was extremely embarrassed by Chu Zheng, which shows that Chu Zheng's physical fitness is strong.

"Ha ha!"

"Ha ha!!"

Hearing Fan Zhiyi's words, both Zhang Lu and Zhan Jun laughed loudly, they knew the meaning of this guy's words.

Fan Zhiyi was praised by domestic fans as the player with the strongest physical fitness in the history of Chinese football.

But after Chu Zheng came to the Premier League, his physical fitness has obviously surpassed that of Fan Zhiyi at his peak.

On the field, Delph didn't stick to the ball, and after getting the ball, he split the side to the left.

The ball arrived at the feet of Kolarov who retreated along the wing after the corner kick.

Seeing Mahrez standing in the upper left corner of the penalty area, Simpson quickly retreated into the penalty area. Kolarov suddenly crossed David Silva who ran over from the left rib area at the top of the arc, and then stepped forward. Insert the bottom.

Mahrez took a few steps back and saw Albrighton grabbing David Silva from behind, he stopped quickly, no longer cared about Kolarov, but was ready to fight Albrighton Prepared for David Silva's front and back attack, but also cut off the passing line of David Silva and Kolarov behind the wing.

This time defending Mahrez was quite correct and beautiful.

Faced with this situation, David Silva, who was facing the wing at this time, also made a quick decision.

The next moment he stopped the ball, he put his left foot on the ball and led it to the right. At the same time, he completed a turn to the right. Not only did he get rid of the entanglement of Albrighton behind him, but he also shook Mahrez.

Mahrez did not expect that David Silva would choose this dexterous way to break through directly. When he switched his focus, David Silva just passed him.

After a successful breakthrough, David Silva faced Simpson in front of him.

Seeing the dense defensive positions of Simpson, Morgan and others in the penalty area in front of him, David Silva wanted to cross.

But as soon as he got up his mind, he saw Chu Zheng retreating quickly before the penalty kick, which directly cut off his connection with Sterling in the top area of ​​the arc.

At this moment, David Silva knew that he had been seen through by Chu Zheng.

But a top player is a top player.

The pass failed, and David Silva directly started to break through.

Facing Simpson in front of him, David Silva continuously changed his center of gravity while dribbling the ball, making Simpson in front of him turn around.

After shaking Simpson's center of gravity, David Silva flicked his right foot to the right, turned around and followed up, and raised his foot to hit.

David Silva's actions were within Chu Zheng's expectations.

The moment David Silva shot, Chu Zheng had already rushed in front of him, forming a defensive triangle with Simpson and Morgan.

Chu Zheng fell to the ground and slid the shovel to block it.

David Silva shot the ball and was accurately shoveled by Chu Zheng.

But the accident also appeared at this time.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the ball that was tackled by Chu Zheng hit Simpson's heel in front of Chu Zheng, and then bent towards the goal against the turf.

Faced with this unexpected ball, Morgan was caught off guard and let the ball slip past his feet.

In front of the post, seeing the ball go straight to the back post, Schmeichel quickly moved laterally and swooped.

Schmeichel, who was lying on the ground and missed the ball, was relieved when he saw the ball hit the post and rolled out of the baseline.

"Huh!!!!!!" There was also a violent exclamation at the Etihad Stadium at this time. The Leicester City fans in the stands were terrified, while the Manchester City fans all looked regretful. color.

"Almost an own goal!"

"Chu Zheng's block was very precise and timely, but the ball hit Simpson's foot and changed its line. Fortunately, the ball was not within the goal frame, otherwise Schmeichel would have four arms and would not be able to catch it!" Zhan Jun laughed.

On the sidelines, Ranieri was also frightened and his heart was pounding.

No matter how good a team's defense is, it can't prevent this kind of accidental ball.

Fortunately, they were lucky this time!
