Chapter 391 Manchester City is Anti-Client!
On the field, Manchester City, wearing an orange away jersey, attacked from right to left.

The whistle sounded, and De Bruyne directly kicked the ball back to the front of his arc.

Stones stopped the ball and adjusted quickly, then directly lobbed a long pass to the right side of the circle, and Manchester City's formation pressed forward as a whole.

For Manchester City this season, this way of launching an offense will only appear when they are robbed of the midfield and cannot play the ball smoothly.

City prefer to let the ball go on the ground for most of the game.

But today we are playing against Barcelona, ​​everyone is short and half-baked, not to mention the elder brother, so Manchester City is not at a disadvantage in the high ball competition.

Soon, the ball scrambled and popped out of the bottom line on the wing.

After Alba took the ball, he saw that there were six Manchester City players in the nearby rib area, and he threw the ball directly back to the side of the backcourt.

Manchester City's formation also moved following the lateral transfer of the ball to the right of Barcelona, ​​and quickly pressed forward to the front of Barcelona's penalty area, putting pressure on Umtiti and Pick in the penalty area.

Through the situation in the opening 2 minutes, Guardiola's tactical intention is extremely obvious, which is to focus on the away side, suppress Barcelona with high pressure, limit Barcelona's backcourt, and cut off Barcelona's offense from the source.

Guardiola's tactics are simple and straightforward.

That is, I don't care how good your Barcelona's MSN combination is, I will use this layer of defense in the midfield to separate the connection between your midfield and striker.

As long as the trio of Messi, Neymar and Suarez can't get the ball frequently, it doesn't matter how good you are.

On Barcelona's side, facing Manchester City's anti-customer-oriented style of play, the pass in the backcourt seemed a little flustered.

This panic is reflected in goalkeeper Ter Stegen.

In the 3rd minute of the game, Umtiti made a cross from the right line of the penalty area to Ter Stegen on the right side of the small penalty area.

Before Ter Stegen could touch the ball, De Bruyne rushed in front of him.

Ter Stegen obviously panicked, turned quickly to the right, and rubbed the ball horizontally without stopping the ball with his right foot.

Due to too hasty, the speed of the ball was not fast. Seeing that De Bruyne was about to catch up with the ball, countless Barcelona fans almost had a heart attack.

Fortunately, Peak reacted quickly in the upper left corner of the penalty area. He quickly ran two steps towards the ball, turned around forcibly and kicked the ball to Mascherano on the right side of Barcelona.

However, before the ball reached Mascherano's feet, Nolito rushed up.

In a blink of an eye, Ma was blocked by De Bruyne and Nolito on the right side of the penalty area, and was forced to kick forward to make a long pass.

"Looking at the current position of the Manchester City players, De Bruyne is indeed playing the center position today."

"Well, Guardiola's formation today is still biased towards 4141, with Fernandinho as a single midfielder and Kolarov as a support."

"Chu Zheng's position today is very interesting. He will appear on the side lanes and then in the middle lane for a while!"

"Jing Duoan's position is also changed following Chu Zheng."

"Not only Chu Zheng and Gundogan, but other people's positions are also very flexible. For example, Zabaleta, who will go up to the midfield for a while, Manchester City will play a three-back, and then withdraw for a while. I don't know Guardiola's gourd at all. What kind of medicine is sold here?"

"When Guardiola played Chu Zheng before the game, he said that talented players like Chu Zheng don't need to limit their positions. Giving him freedom is the best tactic."

"Haha, indeed, watching Pep Guardiola's team, you don't want to see a certain player in a certain area of ​​​​the field."

"If the situation permits, he can even make the goalkeeper appear in the center position!" Zhang Lu smiled and winked.

Hearing what Zhang Lu said was interesting, Zhan Jun also laughed happily and said: "As for Barcelona, ​​it is somewhat different from the media's speculation before the game. Enrique is not playing a 3-back system, but a 4-back system. Mascherano Today is a cameo for Barcelona's right back!"

As soon as Zhan Jun finished speaking, danger appeared again in front of Barcelona's goal on the field.

At 4 minutes and 39 seconds of the game, Manchester City once again grabbed Barcelona from the right side of the front court and was unable to move forward.

Abala quickly turned back before Sterling approached, and pushed the ball back to Umtiti in the upper right corner of the penalty area.

Gundogan quickly pressed forward, forcing Umtiti to continue to pass the ball back.

In front of the bottom line on the right side of the penalty area, Ter Stegen, who moved laterally, was also flustered by De Bruyne, who rushed to press from the center, and passed the ball forward without stopping.

In the right rib area at the top of the arc, Busquets quickly stopped and was ready to catch the ball.

Seeing the ball coming, Chu Zheng, who was not far behind Busquets, went up to grab the ball.

Busquets is known as the ball blind filter among the fans.

The guy doesn't have a lot of physical ability, but he makes up for it with his super high IQ, and he has a lot of experience in the game.

With his back to Chu Zheng, Busquets, who had already posed to protect the ball in advance, obviously knew that Chu Zheng would grab her from behind.

So at the moment of receiving the ball, Busquets made a false move to turn to the left.

After a feint, Busquets rubbed his right outer instep the moment the ball came to his feet, and then quickly turned to the right, trying to stop and pass Chu Zheng.

However, when Busquets turned to the right, he saw a leg crossed under his feet.

In the next second, Busquets lay on the grass before he could react.

"Leave the ball with the shovel!!!!!!!!!"

“Very clean!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

Seeing that Chu Zheng's sliding tackle left the ball under their feet, Zhan Jun and Zhang Lu suddenly exclaimed!

It is self-evident what stealing the ball at this position means.

In the stands of the Nou Camp, countless Barcelona fans saw this scene, they held their breath in fright, and their hearts beat wildly.

On the field, Chu Zheng put his left hand on the soft grass and quickly stood up.

Seeing that De Bruyne was in an offside position on the right side of the small penalty area, Chu Zheng swung his legs on the spot, and before Busquets, who got up almost at the same time as him, entangled him, he directly lobbed a shot.

"Shoot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Zhan Jun stared and exclaimed!
In front of the goal, Ter Stegen, who had just returned to the right post, sprinted along the goal line and jumped out to the upper left corner of the goal.

But he missed the ball!
When he fell from the sky, he saw Chu Zheng's hanging goal flying out from the upper corner of the goal, rubbing against the crossbar, and Ter Stegen felt a sense of joy in his heart for the rest of his life.

Otherwise, if the goal is scored, he will be very responsible.

"fool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Seeing Chu Zheng's hanging door fly out, the [-] Camp Nou fans suddenly let out a collective exclamation!

The terrifying sound was like the heat wave of a bomb explosion, and it shot straight into the sky from the top of the Nou Camp in an instant.

"Oh!" Zhang Lu also exclaimed.

"Chu Zheng was really decisive in this ball. He didn't hesitate at all. When Lunjiao got up, he turned around and hanged himself!" Zhan Jun adjusted his glasses and said in a very regretful tone.

"This ball, if Chu Zheng doesn't kick it immediately, he won't have a chance!"

"Busquets is on the left back of Chu Zheng. If Chu Zheng thinks a little more, he will be entangled by Busquets!"

"Yes!" Zhan Jun nodded, "Just now, De Bruyne, the only support point in Barcelona's penalty area, was in an offside position."

On the sidelines, Guardiola also rubbed the braised egg on his head regretfully.

Enrique, who had been sitting on the coach's bench, was also frightened. He quickly walked to the coach's area and shouted at the Barcelona players on the field.
