The top prediction at the start, I am the third ball king

Chapter 677 Hoffenheim's first chance to win the Champions League has come?

The camera lens immediately shifted to the Manchester City bench.

Guardiola was in a daze, damn it, conceded the ball?
Lost the ball so quickly? !

He didn't react at all.

Li Chuanqi was surprised, but then he returned to normal. He thought it was an accident.

After the game restarted, Manchester City launched a tidal attack on Hoffenheim.

In the 3rd minute, Aguero, who scored twice in the Premier League three days ago, got a chance in the penalty area and shot a low shot!
The football slides out!

Three minutes later, Manchester City made a comeback, David Silva cut inside from the left, and then passed a diagonal pass to penetrate Hoffenheim's defense.

After Sane got the ball on the penalty area line, he dodged the defense and shot a long shot!
The football goes wide of the goal!

In the 9th minute of the first half, Sane went down to the right and fell into a triangle, and the B seat who followed up in the middle pushed and shot!
The football was bravely blocked by the Hoffenheim goalkeeper with his feet!

The situation in front of Hoffenheim is jittery and dangerous.

After withstood Manchester City's offensive climax, Hoffenheim gradually stabilized and played back and forth with Manchester City.

The scene suddenly stalemate.

In the 307th minute of the first half, Hoffenheim got a corner kick. Kadzabek sent the corner kick into the penalty area of ​​Manchester City. Central defender Hogma leaped high and beat Laporte with a vicious header. Goal!

The powerful header directly broke through the gate guarded by Edson!

Two to zero!
Hoffenheim seized the corner kick and extended the lead to two goals!
This goal ignited the passion of the Rhine-Neckar Arena, and the whole stadium was completely boiling.

The German national TV commentator shouted excitedly: "Two to zero! Before the end of the first half, Hoffenheim had a two-goal lead! They are two goals ahead of the mighty Manchester City, ahead of the invincible Manchester City!

What the Premier League teams can't do, we Bundesliga teams can do it! "

The Manchester City Sports Channel commentator said painfully: "Already two goals behind, Manchester City's form is very bad, Guardiola must find a way to solve the problem of offense and defense.

Guardiola wants to solve the problem of "only blooming but not fruiting" in the offense. Whether in terms of the number of opportunities created or the number of shots, Manchester City is ahead of Hoffenheim, but their ability to seize opportunities is very speechless.

As for defense...it's hard to say..."

The situation was very unfavorable for Manchester City. Guardiola, who was standing in the command area, yelled at the defense. He was really dissatisfied with this defense.

At the end of the first half, Manchester City launched a siege against Hoffenheim.

Hoffenheim retreated across the board, forming a line of defense inside and outside the penalty area, and set up an iron bucket formation.

For a while, Manchester City had no space to complete the shot.

In the 405th minute of the first half, Gundogan took a long shot from outside the penalty area. The football did not penetrate the crowded penalty area at all and was blocked by the Hoffenheim defender.

Aguero took a shot, and the football was blocked by the Hoffenheim defender again!
After 2 minutes of stoppage time, the referee blew the whistle for the end of the first half.

The German national TV commentator said excitedly: "The first half ended, and Hoffenheim ended with a score of [-]-[-]! They withstood Manchester City's tide of offense and maintained the two-goal advantage until the end of the first half!

As long as Hoffenheim can maintain the state of the first half in the second half, they will be able to win the first Champions League victory in team history tonight and create a new history!
Come on, Hoffenheim, victory is at hand! "

The Manchester Sports channel commentator said regretfully: "After falling behind zero to two, Manchester City launched a crazy counterattack, but Hoffenheim wisely chose to retreat and set up an iron bucket formation, allowing Manchester City to attack again and again. Return in vain!

Manchester City needs someone to stand up, someone needs to stand up and save!

We still don't know whether Li can play or not. If there is no problem with his body, Guardiola should send him to play sooner!
When will Guardiola let Lee go into battle?
I think, maybe he should play at the beginning of the second half, because there is not much time left for Manchester City! "

The Sky Sports commentator said: "From a fair point of view, Manchester City actually played well in the first half of the game. The ball possession rate reached 70.00%. Most of the time, the football was at their feet and created many scoring opportunities. .

It's just that Manchester City's offensive players are not good at seizing opportunities, and they did not convert the offensive into goals.

On the other hand, Hoffenheim's offensive efficiency is amazing, scoring two goals in three hits within the frame!
Moreover, Hoffenheim coach Nagelsmann is a very smart coach. After leading [-]-[-], he retreated across the board, compressing Manchester City's offensive space!

The first half of the game is over, but the result is still hard to say. After all, Guardiola still has an ace in his hand that has not been played.

When Guardiola plays the trump card in his hand, the decisive moment will come!
In addition, I always feel that Manchester City is staying strong in this game. They seem to think that the game against Liverpool at the weekend is more important. "

The Sky Sports commentator is very optimistic about Li Chuanqi: "Countless battles in the past tell us that as long as Li is on the court, anything can happen, so Hoffenheim is not the time to celebrate!"

Manchester City fans were not happy with the first-half result:
"Damn it, the siege didn't score a single goal!"

"Yeah, the opponent's goal looked so easy, we pressed the opponent to play, so many shot opportunities, but we didn't grasp a single one!"

"Since Li has recovered, why put him on the bench? I can't figure it out!"

"Let's not speculate wildly. Maybe Guardiola has his own plan. We have to trust him! He wants to arrange Li to play again at a critical time."

"Damn, now we are two goals behind, isn't it a critical moment?"

"I think it's okay even if we lose tonight. After all, there are still four games left in the group stage. As long as we play well in the next four games, we will definitely have no problem emerging from the group."

"I think the game against Liverpool at the weekend is more important, so the outcome of this game is not important, it will not affect our entry into the knockout rounds."

"Well, with this kind of score, I think it's better for Li not to play. The battle for the top spot is more important!"

Opinion among Manchester City fans was divided.

Hoffenheim fans are quite excited:

"Manchester City is nothing more than that..."

"Yeah, Manchester City is actually nothing special, it was completely blown out by the British media."

"First win in the Champions League, it's exciting just thinking about it!"

The journalists on the sidelines were discussing:

"Is there going to be a big upset tonight?!"

"It's too early to say, Li hasn't played yet..."

"Lee will definitely be able to win the score when he plays? I don't think so! And doesn't Guardiola think about the weekend's top game with Liverpool?"

"I don't think Pep Guardiola will replace Lee with this kind of score. What if he gets injured after playing?"
