After Bernardo Silva took control of the ball, Aston Villa's midfielder also made interference actions at the first time!

The two midfielders, Hourihane and Jedinak, quickly blocked Bernardo Silva.

But I didn't expect it.

Bernardo Silva suddenly stepped on the ball with his right foot and turned quickly.

It was easy to get rid of it!

The two players, Hourihane and Jedinak, were like scarecrows in the field, motionless, and did not have time to make any interceptions against Bernardo Silva!

Instantly.

A large open area appeared in front of Bernardo Silva.

No Aston Villa player interfered with Bernardo Silva!!

So, Bernardo Silva chose to dribble the ball forward directly.

Although Bernardo Silva did not have the absolute explosive power of Gareth Bale, his dribbling speed was not slow.

Not long after, Bernardo Silva rushed towards Aston Villa's penalty area with the ball!

After seeing this scene, the entire Aston Villa midfielder became nervous involuntarily.

At the same time, Mings, the team's central defender, also decisively moved forward!

He knew very well that if Bernardo Silva entered the penalty area, the consequences would be disastrous!

The most urgent task was to stop Bernardo Silva from moving forward!

When Mings just moved forward to the penalty area line, Bernardo Silva suddenly used his right foot to pick it up!

Bang!

The football quickly fell into Aston Villa's penalty area.

To be more precise, it landed on the left side of the penalty area.

Jesus, a striker from Brazil, stopped the ball with his instep and immediately raised his foot to shoot!

The speed of the shot was extremely fast.

So much so that Aston Villa goalkeeper Lovre Kalinic did not make any interference at all!

Bang! !

Fortunately, Jesus's shot was too angled, and the ball hit the goal post directly!

It did not enter the goal.

Aston Villa, who played at home, escaped a disaster! !

"Almost!"

"This goalpost is really a big deal!"

"Aston Villa goalkeeper, hit the goalpost quickly!"

"Manchester City exerted a little force, and Aston Villa's defense was easily defeated!"

"Yes, yes! Aston Villa can't keep up with Manchester City's rhythm at all!"

"If this continues, it's only a matter of time before Aston Villa loses the ball!"

...

In the Douyin live broadcast room, almost all Xiaguo fans were not optimistic about Aston Villa's performance.

On the bench.

Aston Villa's head coach, Dean Smith, was obviously unable to sit still.

He immediately came to the sidelines and quickly directed all his players to retreat to the half-court to defend!

In the following time, Aston Villa players on the court, except for striker Abraham, began to actively retreat to the half-court to participate in defense.

Five minutes later.

Manchester City's attack came back again.

Middle.

This time the player who broke through with the ball was replaced by Gundogan!

Gundogan has always been a key player for Manchester City. Whenever the team encounters an offensive bottleneck and fails to score, Gundogan can always help the team score by advancing!

In addition to being able to score key goals, Gundogan's more important responsibility is to be the metronome of the team's defense and offense.

Most of Manchester City's attacks are initiated by Gundogan!

Coach Dean Smith is naturally very clear about this. When he saw Gundogan receiving the ball, he immediately hurriedly directed the Aston Villa players to interfere with Gundogan.

In an instant.

Jedinak, McGinn and Xia Yuan, three midfielders, rushed towards Gundogan at the same time!

The German international was very calm. He did not stick to the ball too much, but passed the ball to the unguarded Bernardo Silva.

Immediately afterwards!

Bernardo Silva passed the ball and passed it to Mahrez on the right!

The polo king received the ball!

As a blaster on the Manchester City wing, Mahrez immediately opened fire after receiving the ball!

One step with his left foot!

Directly dribbled along the right sideline!

On the Aston Villa side, full-backs Neil Taylor and Grealish also quickly appeared in front of Mahrez.

Try to stop Mahrez's breakthrough as much as possible.

Break.

As a left-footed player, Mahrez's first choice when dribbling on the right side is definitely to cut inside.

And this time, Mahrez did it.

With a flick of his left foot, he quickly dribbled the ball!

Mahrez actually broke through the gap between Neil Taylor and Grealish! !

Successfully cut inside to the middle! !

"As expected of the Algerian football king! Mahrez can successfully break through even in the face of double-teaming!"

Just after Zhan Jun, the commentator of the ball network, finished this sentence, Mahrez suddenly made a shooting motion!

Instantly.

A beautiful arc quickly turned to the Aston Villa goal.

This time, Aston Villa did not have the help of the goalpost, and Mahrez's shot went straight into the dead corner of the goal!

Although goalkeeper Lovre Kalinic stretched his arms as far as possible in the air, unfortunately, Mahrez's shot was too tricky and goalkeeper Lovre Kalinic failed to catch the ball.

Bang! !

One to zero!

Manchester City, playing away, broke through Aston Villa's goal! !

"Mahrez!!"

"This winger from Algeria used his unstoppable personal ability to cut inside from the wing and successfully scored a goal!"

"Although everyone knows that Mahrez will cut inside from this position, it is still impossible to defend!"

The commentator of the Doqiu.com, Zhan Jun, continued: "As of this game, Mahrez has helped Manchester City score 9 goals and 8 assists. He is the absolute main force under Guardiola!"

"When Manchester City takes the lead, the pressure will come to Aston Villa players!"

"They need to attack!"

After the restart, as the commentator Zhan Jun said, Aston Villa players began to actively attack Manchester City's goal.

However!

Aston Villa's attack could not find any opportunities under the high pressure of Manchester City players.

Aston Villa midfielders can only pass three times at most, and the fourth pass will often be intercepted by Manchester City players...

15th minute

After Manchester City completed the steal in the backcourt, Guardiola's team quickly launched a counterattack.

Midfielder Gundogan passed the ball with a long foot and found Sterling on the left!

Happy boy, it's time to show off!

"Sterling!!"

"He received the ball on the familiar left side..."

"Dribble the ball!"

"Sterling used his absolute speed to eat up the Aston Villa full-back alive!"
