Football: Starting from being abandoned by Barcelona

As the whistle sounded, Manchester City players in sea blue jerseys quickly occupied the center circle.

De Bruyne was seen standing in front of the ball. He looked around, his eyes revealing determination and confidence.

After taking a deep breath, he gently touched the ball with his toes, and then passed the ball to the captain Kompany behind him.

After receiving the ball, the captain did not rush to attack, but chose to stabilize his position, signaling his teammates to adjust their positions and strengthen the control of the midfield and backcourt.

Manchester City players kept moving on the field, looking for opportunities to penetrate the front field through passing and running.

Today, Aguero returned to the field, and his appearance injected a shot of strength into Manchester City.

Aguero, who kept running, actively ran in the frontcourt, looking for gaps.

Li Lei on the right side also performed very well. He and Aguero cooperated tacitly, posing a huge threat to Barcelona's defense.

Li Lei suddenly broke through from the right with the ball, as fast as lightning.

Barcelona defenders Pique and Alba quickly returned to defense, trying to stop his attack.

He was agile and had to change direction, avoiding Pique's tackle and continued to rush into the penalty area.

Seeing Li Lei's breakthrough, Aguero quickly moved forward, looking for an opportunity to connect.

Li Lei understood and passed the ball to Aguero, who was unguarded, at the edge of the penalty area.

Aguero stopped the ball and adjusted it. Facing Barcelona goalkeeper Ter Stegen, he calmly raised his foot and shot.

Just as the fans were holding their breath, Bravo made a desperate save, touched the ball with his fingertips, and lifted the ball over the crossbar!

For this reason, Barcelona players couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and although Manchester City players missed the opportunity, their fighting spirit was even higher.

The game had just begun, and the competition between the two sides was so fierce. The cooperation between Aguero and Li Lei brought great pressure to Barcelona's defense.

Although Manchester City's first shot failed to score, it gave Barcelona players a wake-up call.

They realized that this Manchester City team was no longer the team that had no power to fight back and lost 1:4 at the Camp Nou.

The strength and fighting spirit shown by Manchester City caught the Barcelona players off guard.

The Barcelona players on the field began to put away their previous slightly loose attitude. They realized that facing such a Manchester City team with a strong momentum, they must concentrate and treat the game with a more rigorous attitude.

However, Messi's absence had a significant impact on Barcelona's offense.

This Argentine genius is often the initiator and organizer of Barcelona's offense. His absence made Barcelona's offense seem a little helpless.

Even with superstars like Suarez and Neymar on the field, without Messi's matchmaking, Barcelona's offensive routine seemed difficult to work.

Barcelona's players kept trying to organize the offense on the field, but the pass was always not accurate enough and the running position lacked tacit understanding.

They tried to break through Manchester City's defense through their personal abilities, but Manchester City's players showed tenacious defense.

Fernandinho and Francisco kept intercepting in the midfield, blocking Barcelona's attack route.

Stones and Laporte kept guarding in the penalty area, making it difficult for Suarez and Neymar to find shooting opportunities.

Manchester City's defensive tactics worked, and they successfully resolved several attacks by Barcelona.

As the game progressed, Barcelona's morale began to be affected, their rhythm was disrupted by Manchester City, and the transition between offense and defense became less smooth.

Manchester City's players seized this opportunity, and they kept looking for offensive opportunities through passing and running in the midfield.

De Bruyne and Fernandinho kept organizing the attack in the midfield, and their passes were accurate and imaginative.

Sterling and Li Lei kept breaking through on both sides, creating huge pressure on Barcelona's defense.

As the game progressed, Manchester City gradually took control of the situation on the field.

In the 27th minute of the first half, Manchester City's attack was like a precision machine, and every gear was running perfectly.

Sterling dribbled the ball on the left, and his speed and skills gave Barcelona's defenders a headache.

Facing the defense's blockade, Sterling did not choose to force a breakthrough, but decisively chose to cross the ball near the baseline.

This time his pass was very subtle. He did not blindly lob the ball into the penalty area, but chose a low ball close to the ground.

This pass just avoided the defender's block and went straight to the center of the penalty area.

Aguero had already seen the opportunity, and he moved quickly in the penalty area to find the best position to grab the ball.

However, just as Aguero was about to touch the ball, Barcelona's central defender Gerard Pique arrived in time, and he used his body to force the ball into the goal.The ball slipped past Aguero's feet and was about to lose its threat. But at this critical moment, a blue figure came in like lightning. Yes, it was Li Lei, the right winger of Manchester City! He rushed to the landing point of the ball at an amazing speed, and shot the ball with his right foot before the Barcelona defender. Li Lei's shot was full of power and determination, and the ball went straight to the lower right corner of the goal like a flash of lightning. Barcelona goalkeeper Claudio Bravo reacted suddenly, but was still a step slower. The ball flew steadily into the net, and Manchester City's players cheered. They took the lead with perfect cooperation! This goal fully demonstrated the tacit understanding and power of Manchester City's attack line. Sterling's breakthrough on the left, Aguero's containment in the penalty area, and Li Lei's insertion on the right, every link was just right. They seemed to have telepathy, and everyone knew their roles and tasks.

Barcelona's players seemed a little stunned. They didn't expect Manchester City to organize the attack so quickly and score with such exquisite cooperation.

The score became 1:0, which gave Manchester City a valuable lead at home.

Li Lei's goal made Manchester City fans fall into crazy celebrations, and the whole stadium was boiling!

Li Lei ran excitedly, opened his arms, faced the stands, and shared this exciting moment with the fans.

His face was filled with a bright smile, and his eyes were shining with the light of victory.

And those Manchester City teammates also rushed forward at the first time to celebrate this crucial goal with him.

De Bruyne, Sterling, Aguero... They hugged each other, jumped and cheered, and their faces were filled with joy and excitement.

In the stands, Manchester City fans were completely ignited by this goal!

They waved Manchester City's flags and sang the team's songs. The whole stadium was surrounded by a blue ocean.

These are all cheers for Li Lei and Manchester City. At this moment, their hearts are closely connected with the team.

Li Lei also felt the enthusiasm and support of the fans. He waved to the stands and shared this wonderful moment with the fans.
