But Lin Jie and Dortmund's players did not expect that this wave of Manchester City's attack would be so fierce and so decisive!
At the beginning of the second half, they attacked directly!
They showed their strongest state!
There was no time for Dortmund to adjust!
After the kick-off, Manchester City's players also pretended to adapt to the rhythm of the game.
After the ball was kicked out, they passed the ball back to control the rhythm slightly.
But the 48th minute of the game!
On the right side, Walker seized the opportunity and suddenly moved forward and quickly passed Hazard, advancing quickly towards Dortmund's half!
Then he and Mahrez made a simple two-on-one cooperation to directly pass Bellingham's steal.
Facing Guerrero's defense who reacted quickly to make up for the defense.
Walker knocked the ball back to Mahrez again.
After receiving the ball, Mahrez continued to shake the rhythm and successfully passed Guerrero.
Then Mahrez continued to move forward with the ball, while Walker was also actively crossing the side.
This wave of Manchester City's attack was quite fierce, and the right side of the defense was basically penetrated by the cooperation of the two.
Of course, this wave of Manchester City's attack also took advantage of the second half when the Dortmund players were not particularly focused.
Coupled with the previous pretended active slowdown, the Dortmund players were caught off guard in terms of rhythm!
Fortunately, at this time, Hummels, as a central defender, reacted very quickly and immediately took two steps forward.
Stand by near the penalty area line, waiting to defend against Mahrez's continued breakthrough!
At the same time, Hummels' left hand was constantly making movements, signaling Guerrero to move to the side and keep a close eye on Walker on the side.
Hummels, who was shaken by Bernardo Silva's volley pass in the first half, was also well prepared this time!
Facing Mahrez's rhythm shake, he was not moved at all.
The continuous retreat blocked Mahrez's chance to continue cutting inside.
But Mahrez's handling was also quite decisive, seeing that he had no chance to break through.
He chose to pass the ball back in an inverted triangle without hesitation, and gave it to Bernardo Silva who had also been advancing and just arrived!
Although Lin Jie was pulled relatively far away because of his close attention to De Bruyne.
But there was another defensive midfielder Witsel who was dragged behind and completed the defense in the midfield ribs in the first time.
At this time, he was only one or two steps away from Bernardo Silva.
If Bernardo Silva hesitated for half a second, Witsel's defense would be successful.
But Bernardo Silva is also an equally good passer in Guardiola's lineup.
Without hesitation, he pushed the arch of his left foot forward and knocked the ball into the Dortmund penalty area.
At this time, Foden, who was advancing in the Dortmund penalty area, was also closely watched by Akanji.
This ball was not particularly easy for him to handle, but Foden did not kick it himself!
Foden did not take credit for it, but leaned sideways against Akanji, and the two ran towards Bernardo Silva's through ball.
Foden's right foot flicked back, and the direction of the ball changed again, and began to roll to the left!
It just avoided the defensive area that Akanji could cover!
At the back point, Manchester City's left winger Grealish had already completed the forward insertion!
Although the left back Munier took the initiative to fill in the position when he saw Akanji following Foden's run.
But he was still half a beat slower than Grealish.
Grealish, who inserted at the back point, met Foden's pass back and easily pushed the ball to the far corner of the goal with his right foot, the lower right corner!
This wave of lightning-fast continuous passing and cooperation, goalkeeper Cober couldn't keep up with the rhythm at all.
He could only subconsciously dive down and make some movements.
GOOOOOOAL!
2:2!
"Walker's sudden forward run is a bit dangerous!"
"Wall pass, good, keep pushing forward, Hummels' defensive position is very reasonable."
"This time it's blocked!"
"Mahrez didn't choose to force the shot, he passed it!"
"Witsel made up for it, Bernardo Silva didn't stop the ball, he passed it directly!"
"In the penalty area!"
"Foden's position is not very good, Akanji followed!"
"Still didn't stop the ball, he flicked it with his right foot!!!"
"Back point!!!"
"Glarish!!"
"Got it!"
"Oh my God!"
"This wave of Manchester City's cooperation is too smooth!"
"Continuous short pass cooperation, without stopping the ball to think!"
"The second half of the game just started, Manchester City played such a smooth attack and quickly equalized the score!"Zhan Jun was also quite shocked by Manchester City's smooth attack!
"Ah! This!"
"I have to say that this wave of Manchester City's attack is too smooth!"
"Dortmund's defense is not a problem!"
"There are people guarding several key points, but Manchester City just passed the ball in like this!"
Coach Zhang also sighed with a little worry about this ball.
"This wave of Manchester City's attack is really smooth!"
"I can only say that this wave of cooperation should only be played by Manchester City."
"It feels like the Barcelona of Dream Three."
"Basically, it is just passing the ball directly into the opponent's goal."
"This wave of Dortmund's defense is just as Coach Zhang said."
"In fact, Dortmund has done a good job."
"The defensive players followed the first few points."
"Basically, as long as the Manchester City players pass the ball a little slower, or even half a beat!"
"Then this wave of Manchester City's attack will be directly blocked."
"But unfortunately, Manchester City's passing is so smooth Ah!"
"There was no delay, the ball was passed directly without stopping, and finally this perfect goal was created."
"Next, Dortmund needs to consider letting Lin Jie come back."
"He can't keep staring at De Bruyne."
"Manchester City is not a team that relies on De Bruyne alone."
"Although we often say that Manchester City is a different team without De Bruyne."
"But it is obvious that Dortmund is also a different team without Lin Jie."
"And obviously, the price Dortmund needs to pay for the loss of Lin Jie is greater than the price Manchester City pays for the loss of De Bruyne!"
Following the director's replay, I once again appreciated Manchester City's smooth attack this time.
Sun Jihai also sighed.
