The ball was blocked, but the opponent was in trouble.

Joe Hart kicked the free kick with a big foot.

After four headers in the Tottenham half, the two sides headed the ball to Eriksen on the wing.

Eriksen got rid of the ball and cooperated with Ali to score the ball into Manchester City's hinterland in a short time.

Manchester City's midfield interception ability is indeed not very good. Fernandinho's frontal interception level is not the best, and Gundogan has almost no frontal interception ability.

So Tottenham's side counterattack is very fast.

Manchester City's retreat is also timely enough to prevent Tottenham from forming a threatening attack.

However, the ball has been pressed in Manchester City's dangerous area.

As Ali kicked the ball into the penalty area, Kane failed to head the ball, and Kompany headed the ball out of the penalty area.

Dale followed and kicked the ball into the penalty area again.

Kane unloaded the ball this time.

However, Otamendi reacted quickly and kicked the ball out of the penalty area.

Because the power was not strong, the clearance was not far.

Gundogan and Ali ran towards the football at the same time, and Ali sent the ball to the right, which was Manchester City's defensive left.

At this time, Manchester City had all retreated.

Except Aguero, Zhao Yi, Navas, and Sterling all retreated.

Zhao Yi rushed in front of Son Heung-min and intercepted the ball with one foot.

In an instant, three Tottenham players formed a siege.

Zhao Yi turned his back to the center line and faced the bottom line to protect the ball.

After a half turn, Son Heung-min rushed over.

Zhao Yi did not hesitate, gathered all his strength, and kicked the ball out!

Bang! !

The football flew towards the sideline.

The linesman, who had been half-crouching and staring at the situation on the field with wide eyes, had not reacted yet, and the football had hit his head hard.

Plop!

The linesman was still holding the flag in his hand, and his body was lying straight on the board.

Zhao Yi was the first to rush over again.

"Ah???????"

"Another one fell down?"

"This time he was kicked directly in the head???"

"The ambulance is coming in again???"

"What is Zhao Yi going to do today?"

"This linesman didn't raise the flag for two offside goals, there is something wrong!"

"It must be God's mercy, it has nothing to do with Zhao Yi."

Zhao Yi rushed to the scene as soon as possible. The football hit his forehead, not his face, otherwise his nose and brow bones would definitely be broken.

And this time it was a clearance. If he was given time to prepare like last time, and a free kick was given, it is estimated that this unlucky linesman might have seen that he was too milky.

The team doctors of both teams entered the field quickly.

The referee and another assistant referee rushed to the scene immediately.

The unlucky linesman closed his eyes and trembled twice.

The team doctor hurriedly pinched the linesman's chin, which is the philtrum.

Guardiola also ran over. He hugged Zhao Yi and told him that he would be fine.

This is the most normal thing.

It's just that it happened twice in one game, which is indeed a bit abnormal.

The team doctor felt the linesman's pulse and found that he was fine and would not die.

He just fainted.

After a while, the linesman finally woke up.

The method of pinching the philtrum is really good.

The world in the eyes of the linesman was full of afterimages, and all he heard in his ears were some chaotic sounds.

It felt like he came from another world.

"Can you hear my voice??"

The linesman shook his head and nodded, saying that he could hear it.

The team doctor immediately stretched out his hand and gestured a few fingers, asking him to say how many they were.

The linesman's eyes were dull, and the double image in his eyes slowly disappeared.

"Three."

"What about this?"

"One."

"Very good, very good! No concussion! Just fainted, can continue!!"

Both teams' doctors confirmed that the linesman had no major problems and could definitely continue to work.

If this linesman also left the field, there would be no substitute referee to use, and the game between the two sides would have to be interrupted.

The linesman got up and looked at the other linesman with a dull expression.

Is this a job for a human?

Are you sure you want to continue?

This time he fainted, and next time he'll be dead!

The referee team received a hint before the game.

Of course it wasn't a flagrant black whistle, but a biased whistle at home.

These are all unspoken rules, and most professional referees are aware of the situation.

Now he's getting his comeuppance.

One fractured, the other fainted.

If he continues, concussion is a minor matter, but losing his life is a major one!

As the Tottenham sideline ball was thrown out, the referee immediately blew the whistle to end the first half.

It is better to use this time to determine the condition of the injured linesman. If the situation worsens, the game will be cancelled.

If there is no problem, the second half can continue.

The two sides are temporarily tied 2:2.

During the halftime break, Guardiola spent five minutes arranging tactics for the players and ten minutes to determine Zhao Yi's mental state.

He was worried that Zhao Yi would be under a lot of psychological pressure after these two kicks.

"Yes, if it was a little more biased, he might have been disfigured, or even more terrible things would happen. Thank God they are fine." Zhao Yi wiped his face, and Guardiola saw that Zhao Yi was in a very heavy mood at this time.

What a good kid!

There was an obvious problem with the referee's whistle today, and they suffered retribution. Zhao Yi not only did not gloat, but was full of self-blame and prayed for them.

This kind of kind player should become a superstar!

"Yes, that's right... Everything is an accident. No one wants this to happen. Don't have too much psychological burden, understand?"

Zhao Yi nodded, without psychological burden.

If this guy still blows like this in the second half, I will kick him in the face and let the ambulance enter the field again.

Soon, the staff confirmed that the linesman could continue to play and the game between the two sides could continue.

But if this happens again and the referee team is reduced, the game will be interrupted and replayed on another day.

The second half of the game started again.

Tottenham no longer pressed high like in the first half, so the scene was a bit boring in the first few minutes of the game.

Manchester City began to slowly master the rhythm on the field. Zhao Yi and Fernandinho each kicked outside the penalty area, but there was almost no effect.

Tottenham's positional attack also found it difficult to open the situation.

In the 51st minute of the game, Manchester City made a mistake in the frontcourt, and Tottenham seized the opportunity to counterattack!

Eriksen carried the ball forward and suddenly made a big pass!

The football flew directly to Manchester City's half, and Kane in front quickly started and prepared to receive the ball.

The linesman who was injured in the first half saw Kane start, and shouted to the referee through the headset.

"Offside, offside, offside!!!!"

He shouted offside, holding the flag high in his hand!

He was afraid that others would not see his action.

The referee blew the whistle immediately.

Kane spread his hands.

In the first half, Son Heung-min was offside and ran after the ball for a long time, but no one blew the whistle. This time, Kane just had the intention to receive the ball, and he blew the whistle immediately.

"Well, the scale of the penalty in the second half is very different. Is it because the football hit his head and suddenly he got it?"
