Green Journey

Chapter 465 Chu Zheng's fourth Champions League assist!
After this penalty kick, the game went completely out of control.

Neither City nor Monaco went out of their way to control the tempo of the game.

Not only that, but the defenses of the two teams also disappeared.

For example, the defensive line in the midfield is all fake. They are all thinking about how to hit the ball into the opponent's goal, just like two swordsmen fighting for life and death, trying to stab each other to death.

For the fans, this is a good thing.

Because only open and closed games are highly enjoyable, and no one wants to watch a conservative and boring game.

This is precisely the characteristic of the Champions League.

It's not a long process like a league, with lots of opportunities for mistakes.

On the [-]-meter track of the Champions League, from the moment the whistle is blown, everyone must try their best to ensure that their side makes fewer mistakes than their opponents.

Otherwise, there is only one way to go back to my hometown.

In the stands next to the Manchester City bench, Zhao Dudu and his team also devoted themselves to the game on the field.

Even the kids who were more noisy at the beginning looked seriously at the two teams who were frantically swinging knives and fighting their opponents.

Football is a distant thing for Zhao Jie and Gu Jie.

This is the first time for the two of them to come to watch a game live, and it is still the scene of the Champions League knockout match. The visual effects and the atmosphere of the scene are directly full.

Looking at Zhao Dudu, who looks like a crazy girl from time to time, Zhao Jie felt the charm of football for the first time.

This kind of cheering, this kind of shouting, this kind of fierce body collision and every movement of the players on the field affects people's minds all the time, showing people the beauty of football every second.

This feeling is addictive, nostalgic and reluctant.

In the 56th minute of the game, Walker came up along the ribs, took the ball and split to the front right.

After Sterling took the ball, he directly started an inward cut, and in the process of dribbling the ball from Mendy and Bakayoko in front of him, he suddenly pushed the ball laterally to Chu Zheng in the ribs.

Bakayoko quickly turned around and went straight to Chu Zheng.

Jiang Lai in front of Chu Zheng also quickly pushed up from the ribs of the top of the arc, compressing the ball holding space in front of Chu Zheng.

But Chu Zheng had no intention of breaking through at all.

He flicked the bottom of the ball with his left foot, and the ball flew into the Monaco penalty area from the top of Jiang Lai who rushed in front of him.

But after passing the ball, Sterling, who advanced forward, was stuck behind Glick, and could only watch the ball Chu Zheng made for him was cleared with a header.

Outside the upper corner of the restricted area, Chu Zheng quickly rushed to the landing point.

Bakayoko arrived later, but was stuck behind him by Chu Zheng.

Chu Zheng was stuck in the position, but Bakayoko behind him squeezed him like a chicken blood.

But Chu Zheng was as stable as Mount Tai.

Bakayoko behind him was a little shocked at this time.

Bakayoko is confident in his physical ability.

In Ligue [-], there is no player he can't carry and can't knock down, but he didn't expect to encounter a hard stubble today.

Just when Bakayoko was thinking about how to drive Chu Zheng to the sidewalk away from the restricted area, Chu Zheng moved.

Seeing Mendy in the penalty area in front of him staying on the back line and not daring to come up, Chu Zheng took advantage of the moment when Bakayoko pushed him behind him, and suddenly rushed forward with the ball.

In the restricted area, seeing that Chu Zheng was about to dribble the ball to the bottom, Mendy quickly moved left to the sideline of the restricted area.

Mendy settled down quickly, directly blocking Chu Zheng's way.

However, in the next moment, Chu Zheng, who rushed in front of him, kicked the ball with his left foot to his right foot, and then sent his right foot forward, and a simple and quick fried ball passed him.

After passing Mendy, Chu Zheng swung his right foot and made a low cross pass directly in front of the goal.

In the middle and back of the penalty area, Aguero and Sane advanced at the same time.

The two, Raj, Sidibe, and Glick fell to the ground at the same time and stretched their feet for the ball.

But Chu Zheng's low and flat cross pass was a bit fast, and none of the five people touched it.

The ball eventually rolled out of the sideline in an arc.

"Oh!" Zhan Jun and Zhang Lu in the live broadcast were both exclaimed in unison by this thrilling scene.

"Aguero and Sane seem a little underprepared for this ball."

"The ball is a little faster..."

On the court, seeing Aguero and Sane miss the opportunity, Chu Zheng felt helpless. When will he have a long-legged teammate.

Aguero missed the ball by just a little bit. As long as the leg is longer than a fist, it will definitely be a goal.

The Manchester City fans in the stands were also jumping with anger, just a little bit.

But soon they were jumping again, jumping for joy.

Soon, Monaco sent a throw-in.

Sidibe was pressed by Sane and quickly crossed goalkeeper Subasic.

Seeing that Manchester City's formation had overwhelmed halftime, Subasic directly made a forward pass to find Mbappe.

Manchester City's left rib in the middle of the half, Mbappe and Otamendi were in place at the same time.

Mbappe took off half a beat slower.

The ball was pushed forward by Otamendi behind him and fell to the feet of Bernardo Silva.

As soon as he got the ball, Bernardo Silva quickly started to push forward.

Fernandinho, who was in the position of the ribs and midfielder, went straight up.

But Bernardo Silva dodged it with a flexible change to the right.

But Bernardo Silva was surrounded by Yaya Toure, Sane, Fernandinho and De Bruyne in a square shape without running a meter.

Yet Bernardo Silva's possession at his feet is world-class.

He alternately controlled the ball with both feet, and abruptly brought the ball out of the encirclement of Manchester City's four, and then quickly transferred to the left half of the rib.

Watching this scene, Guardiola's face next to him was full of amazement.

This kind of player is really suitable for his tactical system.

A smile appeared on Guardiola's face at the thought of the summer transfer window approaching.

This player was actually on his signing list as early as last summer.

It's just that the evaluation given by the scouts sent by Manchester City at that time still needs further investigation.

That's why Guardiola temporarily removed Bernardo Silva from the signing list last summer.

On the field, Walker followed the ball quickly from the ribs to the wing, blocked it in time and inserted Mendy who was holding the ball.

Walker is wary.

He knew that his teammates in the middle hadn't settled down yet, so he took a retreat step and retreated slowly to delay time.

But at the same time he was ready.

As long as Mendy dares to rape him, he will teach Mendy to be a man.

He has been observing Mendy since the beginning of the game. Combined with the information given by the team's analysts before the game, this guy is physically strong, but his speed is far from enough to watch.

Whether it is body and speed, Walker is confident that he can crush Mendy.

Soon, Mendy made a choice and made a cross pass directly to the top of the arc in the middle.

Mendy originally wanted to give it to Bernardo Silva in front of Yaya Toure.

Mendy knows how good Bernardo Silva is at his feet.

Once Bernardo Silva gets the ball, even if he can't break through Manchester City's defense in the middle, it can disturb Manchester City's defense line and maybe get a free kick near the top of the arc.

But unfortunately, the ball was intercepted halfway by Falcao who retreated in the top area of ​​the arc.

In a blink of an eye, Manchester City quickly surrounded Falcao in the middle.

Compared with Bernardo Silva, Falcao, a center forward, is much rougher, and the two are not at the same level at all.

Kompany pushed out from the top area of ​​the arc, and after a series of experienced and continuous grabs, Falcao had to turn his back and bring it back.

Coupled with De Bruyne on the right leaning over, Falcao had to hastily score the ball to the right.

As a result, the ball was not passed well.

Let Chu Zheng, who started to charge forward from the ribs, get in front of Mendy, stab the ball forward six or seven meters, and then Chu Zheng crushed Mendy with absolute speed.

In the blink of an eye, Chu Zheng threw Mendy more than one meter away, striding along the sidewalk.

Taking the ball across the center line and into the left rib area of ​​Monaco's center circle, Chu Zheng slowed down, and then suddenly kicked through the ribs while moving.

At the moment of passing the ball, Aguero, who was located between Raj and Glick on the front left of Chu Zheng, stepped on the accelerator and accelerated, leading by half a body.

In a blink of an eye, Aguero followed the ball into the penalty area from the left rib of the top of the arc in Monaco.

This time Aguero didn't have any hesitation, swung his right foot and shot directly with a low and flat ball.

Approaching the goal post, Subasic pouted and lowered his arms.

Seeing the ball jumping against the turf, he quickly knelt down and put his hands together on the outside of his left knee.

As a result, the ball bounced up suddenly after hitting his palm, rubbed the inside of the post from behind him and got into the goal.

(°△°|||) Immediately, Subasi went numb.

"boom!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

The moment the goal was scored, the Al Ittihad was shaken, the flags were unfurled, cheers shook the sky, and the rolling heat wave with strong body odor swept away in all directions.

Zhao Dudu, Chu Dong and others beside the Manchester City bench also jumped up following the Manchester City fans around them, throwing their fists in celebration.

"Oh ho ho ho!!!!!!!!!!!!"

"SUBASIC!!!!!!!!!!!!"

"Low-level mistake!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

"Aguero helped Manchester City equalize!!!!!!!!!!!!"

"This is also Chu Zheng's fourth assist in the Champions League this season!"

"This speed is too incomprehensible. It's like a supercar when it rushes up, leaving behind Mendy and Bakayoko far behind!" Zhang Lu laughed happily.

On the field, seeing that the score was finally tied, Chu Zheng showed a long-lost smile on his face, and then ran directly to hug Aguero and others.

Aguero was very excited about scoring a goal. He rushed to the corner flagpole and roared towards the stands, hammering his chest continuously, as if he was venting or declaring something.

God knows how much pressure Jesus put on him after joining the team.

After sitting on the bench for several consecutive games, Aguero felt tremendous pressure.

In those days, on the one hand, he was eager to get back to his form, and on the other hand, he was worried that he would be completely abandoned by Guardiola, and he was extremely depressed every day.

Well now, it all melted away with this one goal.

He feels like he's doing it again! <(￣︶￣)>
In the LeTV live broadcast room, after watching Subasic's low-level mistakes, Zhan Jun said cheerfully: "Subasic is leaking!"

"(^^) Haha!" Zhang Lu laughed up and down, and it took a while to stop laughing, "Aguero's play is really tricky, and in fact, I can't blame Subasic entirely."

"Oh?" Zhan Jun looked at Zhang Lu.

"Aguero hit one of the most uncomfortable places for a goalkeeper with this ball."

"Pfft, hahaha..."

"Hey hey hey..."

Before he finished speaking, the on-site director came to slow motion again, whipping the corpse.

Seeing the astonished expression on Subasic's face when he blocked the ball into the goal with both hands, Zhang Lu and Zhan Jun laughed again.

"Hehe~ He just catches the ball with his hands, because the ball is on the side. Sometimes this kind of ball is very difficult to block. If the goalkeeper falls to the ground, it happens to be under the waist, so you can't fall down, so this kind of ball is the most let the goalkeeper. It’s uncomfortable, I was also tired of this kind of ball back then.”

On the sidelines, Jardim began to worry again at this moment.

For Manchester City, there is no retreat, they must attack, or attack fiercely, strive for multiple goals to win, and leave room for tactical choices in the second round.

But for them, there are other options.

However, if he continued to play like this, Jardim hesitated for a while.

Because so far, they are evenly matched offensively with Manchester City.

Once there is another away goal, it will be a great thing for them.

Three away goals are enough for Jardim to calmly arrange tactics after returning home, fully grasp the initiative, and then use the bus to kill Manchester City.

Gradually, the greed in Jardim's heart overcame his reason.

Two minutes later, the greedy Jardim won the bet.

At 60 minutes and 28 seconds of the game, Fernandinho stepped in from the right.

After receiving a diagonal return pass from Chu Zheng on the sideline, he quickly hit Yaya Toure on the right rib.

Toure did not procrastinate after taking the ball, and directly passed Aguero in front of the penalty area line in the ribs.

As a result, just as Aguero with his back stopped the ball, Raj behind him slammed forward, and Bakayoko in front of him also rushed back.

The two clamped back and forth, and Aguero lost the ball.

The ball rolled back, allowing Fabinho, who was running horizontally, to pass the ball directly to Jiang Lai in front of the top of the arc in the middle.

After Jiang Lai took the ball, he quickly moved to the front left side.

But in a blink of an eye, Sterling blocked his route to the left side of his side.

At the same time, Yaya Toure is also following up horizontally.

With no choice, Jiang Lai took the ball and hit Manchester City directly behind with an over-the-top long pass.

Seeing his side's empty backcourt from the sidelines, Guardio tensed up all of a sudden, his heart beat faster, and he was as frightened as countless Manchester City fans in the stands.

Fortunately, Mbappe ran to the right half after being defended by Walker to autism, and handed over the left half to Falcao.

Seeing that Kompany was chasing back from the inside and Falcao's speed was evenly matched, Guardiola was immediately relieved.

He is very satisfied with Kompany's performance today.

The veteran has contributed to the team's wonderful defense many times since the beginning of the game.

However, Guardiola was soon dumbfounded.

On the field, the ball bounced all the way along the sidewalk to Falcao at the front of the upper corner of the penalty area.

Kompany on the inside followed closely.

But Falcao was not made of mud, he kept the ball firmly under his feet, so that Kompany could not find a chance to stretch his feet to steal the ball.

In a blink of an eye, the two came to the upper corner of the penalty area, their speed had completely slowed down, and they had a fierce physical confrontation.

Falcao decelerated more decisively, causing him to fall slightly behind, while Kompany moved forward.

It is this difference in body position that gives Falcao the opportunity to turn right and face the penalty area.

After successfully turning around, Falcao poked the ball forward and started a lateral cut again.

Kompany turned very quickly, turning around and trying to squeeze forward, separating Falcao from the ball.

However, Falcao thought of it with him, and it was a pre-emptive strike.

Falcao squeezed sideways to the left before Kompany started, causing Kompany, who had just completed his turn and had not yet stabilized his center of gravity, to lean back a little.

Seeing that Falcao was about to slip away from under his nose, the extremely experienced Kompany fell to the ground and stretched out his foot to tackle the ball.

However, perhaps it was because he had just returned from injury and his state had not yet returned to the peak, which caused Kompany's kick to be slow for a few tenths of a second and he missed the ball.

In the next moment, Falcao completely got rid of Kompany, took half a meter horizontally, and lobbed directly before being flanked by Walker and Otamendi.

In front of the small penalty area line on the right, Edson saw the ball above his head. He knew that it was too late to retreat at this time, so he could only jump back and reach for the ball.

Soon Edson was desperate, and could only watch helplessly as the ball above his head, only one palm away from his right hand, fell towards the goal behind him.

In the next second, the ball went under the goal crossbar.

2-3, Monaco overtook the score again.

Seeing the third goal, Jardim went crazy with joy on the sidelines.

At this moment, he seemed to be swimming freely in the ocean of happiness.

Three away goals!

Three!
Everyone on the Monaco coach's bench and the bench rushed out to celebrate with Jardim, who was shaking his fists.

At this moment, Manchester City fans fell into a rare silence in the stands around the Etihad.

Confused, all confused.
