I started with Torres, to revive German football

Chapter 134 The blue moon that set sail again, starting from the defeat of Everton!
On the afternoon of January [-]th, Everton's Goodison Park Stadium was already occupied by the swarming British media.

At the pre-match press conference at noon today, Guardiola announced the squad for the game.

The names of the five new aids are all on the list, and they will start the game. After the news came out, it immediately attracted widespread attention.

Since there were no other games in the Premier League around the day of the game.

Manchester City is preparing to stage a five-man debut in this game again. This is an extremely rare event, and it is also interspersed with the drama of Stones facing his old club. The superposition of various situations directly makes this English League The attention of the cup semi-finals was instantly full.

The recent Manchester City just want to keep a low profile. They are currently the focus of the Premier League. As long as they make any turbulent moves, it will be big news that the media rush to report first!
Manchester City's players drove slowly into Goodison Park in a bus. Except for the British media who joined in the fun, the Everton fans who came to watch the game did not seem too excited.

The order in the entire stadium is very good, and there are no slogans or slogans against Stones, which makes Stones, who is sitting in the bus, feel a lot more refreshed.

Although the publicity on the Internet before the game was overwhelming, the atmosphere inside and outside the stadium in reality was quite calm, and there was not much smell of gunpowder.

This disappointed some reporters. They also wanted to see the love and hatred between Everton fans and Stones!

Several reporters from the Sun newspaper couldn't help but interviewed Toffee fans on the street:

"John Stones is playing his first Man City game against Everton, don't you have anything to say to him?"

"I wish him good luck, I hope he can have a better performance in Manchester City, of course, if I can make a mistake today, I will be happier.

It would be great if Everton could win today, of course it is very difficult, who let the opponent be Manchester City! "

"It seems that your perception of Stones has not changed. Now he is your enemy! Shouldn't you be angry?!"

"Angry? Why be angry? He played well for Everton for a few years and the club sold him for a lot of money.

He didn't do anything to be sorry for the club, he didn't stop training, and he didn't persecute.

Manchester City pays, we sell people, it's just a transaction, why should we hate John?
He's a good guy in my opinion, we wouldn't have made it to the semi-finals this year without him! "

"It seems that you are all sensible fans."

"Of course, every team has extreme fans, but most of them are more reasonable.
John just happened to face his old club in the first game after the transfer, there is nothing to complain about! "

"Thank you for the interview and I hope Everton will have good luck today."

"With your good words, I hope so!"

Manchester City did not encounter too much hostility at Everton, and Stones did not encounter the bad picture imagined.

Before the game, both teams were in a more harmonious atmosphere.

During the field training in the afternoon, Stones' old teammates also took the initiative to come over to greet and communicate with him.

This made the young man, who had been terrified for several days, almost have a sore nose and shed tears.

"I hope that when we return to the King Power Stadium, we can be as lucky as John!"

Mahrez looked at the scene in front of him, and said to Kanter with some envy.

The Frenchman nodded. Although he doesn't have a deep relationship with Fox City, it doesn't mean he doesn't care what Fox City fans think of him:

"My agent told me that the Leicester City officials have attracted the firepower of the fans, and now the Blue Fox fans are saying that the top management has got water in their heads.

Almost no one scolded us, and occasionally some people scolded us, and they just thought that we did not leave a more lucrative transfer fee to the club. "

"I didn't expect you to care about Leicester City."

Mahrez really didn't expect that Kanter would pay attention to the follow-up of his transfer. In his opinion, Kanter is a person who plays football with his head down, and hardly cares about what the outside world thinks of him.

"Don't look at me with that surprised look!"

Kanter was a little embarrassed by Mahrez, and turned his face directly:

"I care about my reputation very much, and I don't want to affect my reputation because of a transfer."

Mahrez sighed empathetically:
"Hey, it's fine now, as long as no one calls me a traitor, I'll be content."

In the locker room of the visiting team before the start of the game, Guardiola gave a very rare pre-match mobilization meeting for everyone:
"The game is coming up, my lads, how do you feel?"

"It feels great, we will definitely win today!"

Captain Kompany was not there, so Zhao Jinge took the lead in shouting.

"That's what you say, win this game and bring it back to the Etihad Stadium and we'll have a lot easier next leg.

Then in February, we can compete for the first championship trophy of the season!

I haven't won the League Cup yet!
So I still really want this new trophy, how about you? "

"For the victory, for the championship!"

"Then let them see how amazing you are!"

At this time, in the live broadcast room of Sky Sports, Andy Gray and Lineker were also discussing the game.

"Andy, what do you think of today's game?"

"I can't imagine the possibility of Manchester City losing."

Andy Gray's answer with absolute confidence made Lineker couldn't help retorting:

"Even if they recruit five newcomers at the same time? Do you think so?"

"Yes, I really can't think of a reason why Manchester City lost."

"What you said is too absolute! I admit that Manchester City's advantage is indeed great, but Everton is not helpless!"

"So what do you think Everton can do to win? I don't see Everton winning in this game.

Even if Manchester City have five new players, Everton has no chance of winning. "

"Some star players may not cooperate well. Manchester City has almost changed half of the team. I don't believe they can complete the running-in of the team in a few days.

If you can catch some mistakes in Manchester City's cooperation, Everton will still have a chance. "

"That possibility is too small. Gary, you used to be a top player. Even if a group of high-level players are not particularly smooth in coordination, they will certainly not leave obvious mistakes!"

"Oh, Andy, your position is completely biased towards Manchester City."

"I admit that I am biased towards Manchester City. I am now a new fan of Manchester City! Of course I hope my home team wins!"

"Okay, now the broadcast camera has been aimed at the field, and players from both sides are on the field, first of all, the Toffee players who are sitting at home.

They replaced Stones with the same 20-year-old Galloway as the team's current starter, and the other positions are their regular main players this season.

It can also be seen from the four-two-three-one formation that the keynote of their game is defensive counterattack.

For the visiting team Manchester City, they will be controversial and have sent five new aids at the same time, but this lineup is definitely at the level of the top Premier League teams in terms of strength on paper.

After getting the right wide players, Guardiola returned to the four-three-three formation that Manchester City used most before:
Goalkeeper: Joe Hart.

Defenders: Kolarov, Demichelis, Stones, Kyle Walker.

Midfield: Kante, De Bruyne, Gundogan.

Forwards: Mane, Zhao Jinge, Mahrez.

As the focus of this winter transfer window, the new members of Manchester City are under tremendous pressure, and they have become the focus of attention from the outside world.

If they don't want to be called parallel importers, they need to show their best from the start of this game.

Playing in a team that aspires to be a champion, they have to seize any opportunity to express themselves.

Let's take a look at the performance of Manchester City's new players. Will there be parallel imports that everyone loves to see among the five of them?

The game starts now, what is the strength of this updated Manchester City?Let us all wait and see! "

Following the referee's whistle, Zhao Jinge kicked off the ball in the middle circle, kicking off the game.

Manchester City entered the offensive state directly at the beginning of the game. The game had just started less than 1 minute after passing through continuously and quickly.

De Bruyne sent a long pass in the midfield, aiming at Zhao Jinge who had penetrated into the hinterland of Everton.

I saw that Zhao Jinge held the Toffees' rookie central defender Galloway in front of Everton's penalty area. After stopping the ball with his chest, he turned around to open the space and volleyed from outside the penalty area!
The football quickly flew to the underside of the near corner of the goal. Fortunately, Everton's American goalkeeper Howard was prepared.

When Zhao Jinge turned around to play the ball, he had already moved towards the near corner. Relying on the advantage of standing in advance, he quickly got down to the ground and threw the ball out in a thrilling manner.

Less than a minute after the opening, Zhao Jinge used his personal ability to directly shoot a threatening shot, which made Guardiola on the sidelines very satisfied.

Sure enough, placing Zhao Jinge closer to the goal is the best way to use it.

Several defensive players on Everton's side immediately became more nervous, and they had a dispute with each other over who would defend Zhao Jinge.

Especially the young central defender Galloway who was almost eaten raw just now. This young man was eaten to death by Zhao Jinge just now.

Galloway, who is 1.8 meters tall, looks about the same size as Zhao Jinge, but he is not at the same level in terms of physical strength confrontation.

Zhao Jinge bullying this young player who is more than two years older than him is just like Drogba bullying Senderos, don't take it too easy!
If Everton still let Galloway and Zhao Jinge defend one-on-one in the follow-up, Zhao Jinge alone can let Everton know what cruelty is!
Originally after selling Stones, Everton was also preparing to introduce a new central defender with a higher level. They took a fancy to Stoke City's central defender Shawcross, but the transfer has not been successfully finalized.

So in this game, Stones' substitute Galloway was directly used, but he was shot through at the beginning of the game. The Toffees' defense players had no choice but to let another central defender Morrie switch to defend Zhao Jinge.

Morrie from Argentina is tall, but his ability is much worse than that of Stones. Whether he can defend Zhao Jinge, Everton's backcourt players have no idea, but no matter what, they can't give Zhao Jinge so easily. It's time to start.

Not only was Galloway taken aback just now, but other Everton defensive players were also shocked by Zhao Jinge's shot.

After 1 minute of the opening, the Everton players were ready to give Zhao Jinge a taste of what is called defending against aliens.
Everton had the ball after City's corner attack, and the Toffees' midfielder Barry spun the ball to Deulofeu.

After two steps of dribbling, the young Spaniard also made a long pass and directly hoisted the ball to Manchester City's big penalty area.

Just like Manchester City's offensive mode just now, Everton also wants their most combative center to touch Manchester City's defense to see if Lu Yuanwai can open up the situation for the team like Zhao Jinge did just now.

Lu Yuanwai received the ball with his back. Lukaku, who is 1.9 meters tall and weighs 180 kilograms, pulled to the left to avoid Demichelis.

Then he bumped into his former siblings and friends with his back. Stones, who weighed just [-], was directly pushed out of the turning space by Lu Yuanwai, but before Lukaku turned around successfully.

Stones, who was pushed away, adjusted his center of gravity and used his flexible speed to move to the route where Lukaku turned.

Lukaku saw Stones sticking up again, he had half turned around and smiled, and directly squeezed up with his shoulders and back!
Stop resisting, John, I know everything about you!Do you have any means that I, Lu Yuanwai, don't know about?Get out of the way obediently!
Lu Yuanwai made a rhinoceros turn, carried Stones directly, and faced the goal directly on the penalty area line of Manchester City.

However, Demichelis' defensive position was stuck very well, and Lukaku failed to find a good opportunity.

Seeing this situation, Lu Yuanwai had a flash of inspiration, and directly dribbled the ball horizontally, watching my rhino cross the street!
A horizontal trip, pull out the angle, and watch me shoot a Belgian burst shot of the same style as De Bruyne!
Hey, my ball!Where did my big ball go?
Lu Yuanwai, who was about to shoot, swung his right foot in the air, almost kicking his sneakers out of the air.

"Is Lukaku going to copy what Zhao Jinge did just now? The Belgian dribbles the ball horizontally, ready to hit the goal!

Kanter!At the critical moment, Kanter, who returned to defense, poked the football away from behind Lukaku who raised his foot!
Joe Hart made a forward pounce and protected the football under him! "

Andy Gray in the live broadcast room saw the scene where Lukaku almost knocked himself down with a shot after the football was stabbed at his feet.

Coupled with Lukaku's bewildered look after stabilizing his center of gravity, he laughed unkindly in the live broadcast room.

The Toffee fans at the scene couldn't help laughing after seeing Lu Yuanwai's silly expression on the big screen.

No!I just didn't play football!what?Why even my own fans started making fun of me!
I'm your center forward!Your laughter is a bit unkind!
Member Lu touched the top of his head which was getting thinner day by day, puzzled.

Finally, he directed his anger at Kanter, who had just broken the football under his feet.

It's you!Don't look at others, it's you, that French little black bean, you don't talk about martial arts!If you stab the ball in the back, you are bullying me. I am wide and fat, and I am not sensitive to the back!

When you poked the ball, you almost flashed my three-foot-eight waist, and made a big fool of myself, and the audience laughed at me.

You wait, you wait for me!Kantor, right?With your height being lower than my brother Lautaro, I'm going to give you a Belgian dunk today!

I really think that Inzaghi of Belgium has no temper, right? !
The game continued, and the two teams gradually entered the game state after their respective trials. Of course, Manchester City, which was leading in all aspects, directly crushed Everton at halftime.

By controlling the ball and using their control over the midfield, they gradually reduced the space for the Toffee players to move, and they directly pushed Everton back to their own defensive third area within less than 10 minutes of the opening.

Except for Lu Yuanwai taking advantage of his personal advantages at the beginning of the game and forcing a wave of his old teammate Stones, Everton had no way to fight back.

After being pushed out of midfield, Everton had lost control of the ball, occasionally regaining control with goal kicks, but would lose it quickly as they advanced forward.

But the possession of the ball still has to be contested. I don’t know how many teams have demonstrated to Everton before. When Manchester City completely controls the control of the game situation and launches continuous attacks, what will happen?

They know their defense well. The Evertonians don't think Galloway and Murray can withstand the impact of Manchester City's attacking group headed by Zhao Jinge.

But how can Everton be able to control the ball now that it has been crushed like this?
Zhao Jinge formed a fulcrum in the middle, constantly using his own advantages to attack Everton's defense.

Galloway and Morrie had to frequently defend Zhao Jinge,

But this gave other Manchester City frontcourt players a chance,
Zhao Jinge likes this situation very much. With the ability to connect, he can easily use the defensive gap formed by Everton after double-teaming to make threatening passes.

Relying on the continuous connection between Zhao Jinge and De Bruyne in the frontcourt and threatening passes.

Manchester City set off a wave of offensive in Everton's half for a while.

Zhao Jinge made a breakthrough and then moved forward to grab the point. Relying on his physical advantage, he kicked out Drogba in Everton's penalty area.

No matter which of the Everton central defenders Zhao Jinge faces, he can use his skills and physical advantages to tease them. Even if they are double-teamed, Zhao Jinge is often seen through by Zhao Jinge alone!
In the No.15 minute of the game, Mahrez ran to the side to help Zhao Jinge open up space. Zhao Jinge directly took the ball and rushed into Everton's penalty area.

Toffee's midfielder Becici decisively took back the penalty area at this time and helped the two central defenders defend Zhao Jinge together, otherwise his central defender would really be smashed to death by Zhao Jinge alone!

Zhao Jinge pulled the ball horizontally and turned around to avoid Besic's attack, and directly turned his back to protect the ball and leaned against the opponent's center back Galloway.

Then, before Morrie stretched his legs, he forced Galloway to complete his turn. Galloway, who was about the same size as Zhao Jinge, was directly knocked out. Go up and shoot!

Morrie desperately wanted to block the angle of the shot, and Becici, who was easily passed by Zhao Jinge, also tried his best to fall to the ground to intercept, but there was nothing he could do.

Everton goalkeeper Howard was powerless in the face of such a fast shot.

The speed of the ball was so fast that the football hit the dead corner of the upper right corner of the goal almost instantly and rushed into the net!
Galloway stood beside him blankly, with the words "unbelievable" written all over his face. Poor young man, his confidence has been destroyed by Zhao Jinge.

Seeing Zhao Jinge turn around and hug his teammates in front of his home goal, the scenes of him being eaten raw by Zhao Jinge kept appearing in his mind.
His mentality has completely collapsed, and Zhao Jinge has become his nightmare in this game in just ten minutes.

"GOAL!!!!
With an unbelievably violent volley, Zhao Jinge directly ate Everton's defense raw!
The perfect combination of technology and body!
After making an exquisite pass in a small area, he immediately used his body to hold the interception of the opponent's central defender, turned around and volleyed violently, and shot a shot so fast that the goalkeeper couldn't react!
Zhao Jinge showed us what a striker's most powerful destructive power is like!

In the opponent's defense, no one can stop! "

After Zhao Jinge overcame the two central defenders of Everton alone and scored the leading goal, Manchester City's offense became smoother and smoother.

In the No. 201 minute of the game, Gundogan handed the ball to Kyle Walker who plugged in on the right, and De Bruyne and other midfielders also quickly followed up.

After Kyle Walker successfully lapped the edge and attracted Everton's defense on the left, Manchester City's central players began to ask for the ball.

After hearing the shouts of his teammates in the middle, Walker passed the ball directly.

Facing the direction of Walker's pass, De Bruyne directly led the ball and sent a light pick pass to Mahrez, who was active in Everton's left rib at the moment and had already bypassed the opponent's full-back.

Kyle Walker continued to advance and pulled away the opponent's full-back, so Mahrez, who is now holding the ball behind Walker, can comfortably hold the ball.

The current right side of Manchester City has directly become the strong side of offense after Walker and Mahrez joined!

Mahrez looked up on the left side of Everton's penalty area, then led the ball to his left foot, and sent a diagonal through from the ribs straight into the top of Everton's penalty area!

The speed of the football ball is not very fast, but the position of the pass is very clever. Zhao Jinge's breakthrough just now made Everton's two central defenders inevitably shrink inward.

The two defensive midfielders were also restricted by Manchester City's midfielder. The position at the front of Everton's penalty area was vacated, and the football crossed the top of the penalty area.
Came to a position slightly to the right. After stopping the ball, Mane, who had already cut in, took a step to the left and shot an exquisite rubbing shot!

Everton's goalkeeper Howard has played blood mold for eight lifetimes today, and Manchester City's shots are getting trickier than the other!
The football played by Mane drew a dazzling arc and went directly into the dead corner at the far end of the goal.

Howard didn't even make a save, and just watched the football standing there waiting to die!He is really powerless!
"GOAL!!!!
In his first game for Manchester City, after receiving an overhead pass from Mahrez, Mane scored an exquisite rubbing shot!

The connection between the two new aids proved to us that Manchester City's new members have quickly integrated into the team!
Now Manchester City fans don't have to worry. From the current point of view, except for Stones being bullied by Lukaku, Manchester City's other signings are in good condition!
It seems that soon Manchester City will lock the place for this year's Carabao Cup final!
Now they are too powerful! "

The ensuing game directly turned into a half-time offensive and defensive drill for Manchester City players.

At the end of the first half, Mahrez also scored the first goal of his Manchester City career after receiving a goal from Zhao Jinge!
In the second half, Zhao Jinge scored twice.

In less than 10 minutes, Manchester City had already led [-]-[-].

Then Guardiola called for gold to withdraw, and Manchester City accepted it as soon as it was good, leaving a trace of face for Everton.

With an unstoppable attitude, Manchester City smashed their opponents in the semi-finals and won their first victory after the new aid came on the field.
