Sterling caught up with the ball and was already near the right side of the penalty area.

Ter Stegen opened his arms and tried his best to block Sterling's possible shooting angle.

Umtiti rushed over from the middle and put enough pressure on Sterling.

Sterling grinned and saw two defensive players in two directions. Ter Stegen was almost in front of him.

Because of happy football and many missed opportunities, Sterling has always been under some psychological pressure.

At this time, he hesitated again.

"Don't adjust, just stare at the opponent's crotch and shoot, don't lob."

Sterling had consulted Zhao Yi before, and Zhao Yi's advice to him was not top-notch.

At this time, lob is of course the best choice, but few players can have such a soft footwork under such high-speed running.

It's too difficult to lob the ball.

So Zhao Yi told him to ignore it and never adjust it. Just shoot hard between the legs!

Sterling's mind was filled with Zhao Yi gritting his teeth and dancing with joy.

Use your best strength.

Go between your legs.

In a flash, Sterling slowed down a little, swung his right foot, and his upper body arched up.

His toes were almost straight, and his arch of the foot was fiercely slapped on the football.

Ter Stegen saw Sterling's action, immediately opened his arms, quickly stretched out his right leg, and sat on the ground with a big split.

Sterling had not yet adjusted to the best shooting posture, but it was precisely because of this that Ter Stegen had much less time to react.

The moment Ter Stegen got off the ground, he felt the football pass through his small door and brush against his thigh!

Didn't block it!

Ter Stegen could only sit on the ground, looking back in fear, hoping that the shot would miss.

Or the post could do the trick.

This time, the Etihad post was not on the side of Barcelona.

Sterling shot the ball, and the ball hit the grass and hit the far corner of the goal.

Swish...

The net made a pleasant sound.

Manchester City scored a goal!

Sterling scored!

More than 50,000 Manchester City fans cheered, and the cheers and fierce applause enveloped the entire stadium.

Sterling rushed out of the stadium and slid to his knees passionately.

"Sterling! Such speed!

Zhao Yi! This pass!

Stopped the ball in the backcourt, without any adjustment, and kicked it directly in the air!

Over all the defenses of Barcelona!

Barcelona's players are still waiting for the opportunity for a second attack!

This precise long pass is like a meteor across the night sky, extremely fast and pleasing to the eye.

But the person who is unfortunately hit by the meteor may be fatal!

For Barcelona, ​​they are the unlucky ones hit by this meteor!

Sterling did not make too many adjustments in this shot. While dribbling forward, he shot directly. His growth is also obvious to all.

Before this, he also wasted a lot of passes from Zhao Yi and De Bruyne.

This time, he did not waste the opportunity and gave Barcelona a fatal blow!"

Enrique shook his head. Zhao Yi, the most offensive frontcourt player, could also pass such a threatening ball in the backcourt.

Zhao Yi had also appeared in the position of defensive midfielder before, and most of the time he was the team's propeller, allowing the ball to pass smoothly through the half.

Today, this sudden pass really caught Enrique off guard.

"Oh my god! So far and so accurate?"

"No adjustment, just a long pass?"

"Just guessed it?"

"The best Mengge in China?"

"After stopping the ball with his chest, he had already adjusted it. What to do next had already been thought of, so there was no need to adjust it again!"

"This is really too unexpected. Zhao Yi would run back and carry the ball forward, and then Kante would fill the position behind him to prevent the ball from being intercepted and counterattacked. This directly saved the middle process, it was perfect!"

"This guy started out as a striker, then played in the front court, and later played as a defensive midfielder. It seems that the effect is also good. This kind of long pass, taking the ball in the defensive midfielder position, is almost a devastating blow to the opponent. Why doesn't Guardiola try to let him continue to play as a defensive midfielder?"

"It's not cost-effective to put him in the defensive midfielder!"

"With his interception and speed, he can be put in the defender, but it's not necessary!"

The Barcelona players looked at Sterling celebrating wildly, feeling a little uncomfortable.

The ball was lost too quickly, and the balance on the field was broken.

After the kick-off from the center circle, Barcelona's players still chose to stabilize the situation on the field.

Messi and Neymar continued to retreat to get the ball.

Manchester City's frontcourt pressure, once a breakthrough point was found, it would be easy for Barcelona to find opportunities with its frontcourt attacking power.

As the game continued, Barcelona players gradually began to adapt to Manchester City's rhythm.

Alba and Roberto began to move forward to support their teammates' attack.

Busquets' position was also very forward. As a stable receiving point for Barcelona, ​​he had to take on the task of organizing the offense.

The ball was hit into Manchester City's offensive third zone, and David Silva, De Bruyne, and Sterling all retreated very deep.

Barcelona could not find any way.

There were no loopholes in a short time.

And Kante was still able to play to his strengths, running around at the front of the penalty area with the ball, putting enough pressure on Barcelona players.

When there was no good offensive route, Barcelona could only give the ball to Busquets and then look for opportunities through conduction.

As soon as Busquets got the ball, Kante immediately followed up, and Gundogan also approached quickly.

Busquets could only turn around and pass the ball to Pique near the midline.

"Pique... Pique is sick again!!"

Manchester City's frontcourt only had Aguero and Zhao Yi, while Barcelona's backcourt only had Pique and Umtiti.

Busquets kicked the ball to Pique, and Zhao Yi rushed to Pique with the sound of wind from a distance.

Pique turned halfway, stopped the ball with his right foot, and could not pass it forward. Zhao Yi rushed from the side and back, which made Pique feel nervous. He wanted to push the ball to Umtiti, but found that Aguero was already standing on the line in advance.

Just when Pique was about to pass the ball to Ter Stegen, Zhao Yi had already rushed in front of him and stretched his legs to poke it hard.

After the confrontation between Pique and Zhao Yi, both of them fell to the ground.

The football was pushed forward, and Aguero took advantage of the situation to kick the ball forward, and shook off Umtiti!
