Football: Starting from being abandoned by Barcelona

Facing Gao Yi's commentary, fans in the barrage also expressed their opinions:

"Why did you replace Li Lei? He played so well!"

"Guardiola's decision is so puzzling. Li Lei is Manchester City's most dangerous offensive player!"

"With Li Lei off the field, Manchester City's offense will probably be greatly reduced."

"I really don't understand. Li Lei should be allowed to play for a while longer in this state!"

"Is Guardiola dissatisfied with Li Lei? Otherwise, why replace him at this time?"

Gao Yi saw the comments of the fans and continued: "It seems that I am not the only one who is dissatisfied with Li Lei. I personally have such doubts. "

"Li Lei's substitution did make many fans feel puzzled and regretful. "

"But we must also believe in Guardiola, he is a very good coach, he must have his own considerations. "

He finally concluded: "In any case, Li Lei's wonderful performance in the first half has left us a deep impression. "

"He once again proved his importance in the Manchester City lineup. "

"I believe that he will have more opportunities to give us more wonderful performances on the court!"

Li Lei's substitution undoubtedly became a small episode in this game. But it does not affect Li Lei's position in the hearts of fans.

Li Lei's substitution had a huge impact on the game situation on the court.

It seemed that in an instant, the atmosphere on the court changed subtly.

The Tottenham players seemed to smell the taste of hope from Li Lei's departure.

They began to attack more actively, and their style of play changed 180 degrees.

Tottenham, liberated from defense, began to show their true strength.

In the 50th minute, Eric Lamela sent a precise cross from the right, Alderweireld jumped high in the penalty area and headed the ball into Manchester City's goal with a powerful header! 1:1, Tottenham equalized the score!

This goal, like a shot of adrenaline, injected the blood of Tottenham players.

They became more motivated and the rhythm of attack became smoother.

Just 11 minutes later, in the 61st minute, Harry Kane once again used a header to rewrite the score to 2:1! Tottenham overtook the score and completed a stunning reversal at home!

In the stands, Tottenham fans fell into crazy cheers.

They waved their team flags and sang Tottenham's team song, and the entire White Hart Lane stadium was boiling for this reversal!

The reversal of the situation made both head coaches feel tremendous pressure.

Pochnotio realized that Tottenham, who was now leading, needed to stabilize the situation to prevent Manchester City from equalizing the score again.

So, in the 68th minute of the game, he replaced Nasser Chadli with Christian Eriksen, hoping that Eriksen could provide more control for the team in the midfield.

On the other side, Guardiola was also actively adjusting tactics.

He saw that Manchester City's control in the midfield had declined, so he replaced Samir Nasri with Fernandinho.

He hoped that the Brazilian midfielder could provide more defensive support for the team and also create more trouble for the opponent on the offensive end.

The game entered the last 20 minutes, and the situation on the field became more tense and stalemate.

Manchester City was trying to find a chance to equalize the score, while Tottenham tried their best to try to keep this hard-earned lead.

Every header and every tackle touched the hearts of everyone on and off the field.

The players ran and fought on the green field, and their sweat soaked their jerseys.

And in the stands, fans were also cheering for their beloved team in their own way.

The balance of the game kept swinging in such a tense atmosphere.

Li Lei's substitution seemed to be the turning point of the game.

As the game entered the last 20 minutes, the situation on the field became more tense, and the two head coaches kept making adjustments on the sidelines, trying to reverse the direction of the game.

In the 86th minute, Guardiola made a decisive substitution adjustment.

He replaced Aguero with Patrick Roberts, hoping that the young striker could bring a breakthrough for Manchester City.

However, just one minute later, Pochnotti responded.

He replaced the exhausted Eric Lamela with Tom Carroll, injecting new vitality into Tottenham's midfield.

This also means that Guardiola has used up all his substitutions, and Pochnotti still has one more chance to make a substitution.

This undoubtedly gives Tottenham more tactical flexibility.

The atmosphere of the game became more tense, and Manchester City's players knew that they had to equalize the score before the end of the game.

So,They started the final sprint, especially in the last 20 minutes, Manchester City's players were playing with their lives.

They kept launching attacks, trying to open a gap in Tottenham's defense.

Facing Manchester City's fierce attack, Tottenham once again used foul tactics.

In the 88th minute, Dele Alli fouled while stopping Manchester City's attack and received a yellow card.

Just two minutes later, Harry Kane was also shown a yellow card warning by the referee for a dangerous move.

The game had entered the injury time, and Manchester City got a valuable corner kick opportunity.

Guardiola decided to go all out, and he asked all the players, including goalkeeper Hart, to step forward to participate in the corner kick.

At this moment, the entire Manchester City team pressed into Tottenham's penalty area.

The corner kick was taken, and Hart jumped high, trying to change the direction of the game with a header.

However, the ball went out of the goal, and Manchester City missed the last chance to equalize the score.

What's worse is that when all Manchester City players were in the Tottenham penalty area, Tottenham seized the opportunity and launched a fatal counterattack.

They advanced quickly and took advantage of the empty defense of Manchester City to break into the door of Manchester City in one fell swoop.

3:1, Tottenham locked the victory!

The whistle sounded and the game was over.

Manchester City's players collapsed to the ground, their faces full of disappointment and frustration.

And Tottenham's players fell into a crazy celebration, they hugged each other and cheered for this hard-fought victory.

Li Lei sat on the bench, watching all this, his mood was complicated.

At the post-match press conference, the atmosphere was a bit heavy.

Guardiola sat in front of the camera, facing the questions of many reporters, his expression was serious, his brows were furrowed, and he was obviously dissatisfied with the team's defeat.

A reporter took the lead in asking the question: "Mr. Guardiola, can you talk about today's game? Especially at the end of the first half, your decision to replace Li Lei, do you think this affected the direction of the game?"
