In the 38th minute of the game, Manchester City finally seized a counterattack opportunity.

Paris Saint-Germain's attack in the front court was successfully intercepted by Mangala, who quickly passed the ball to Fernando in the midfield.

Fernando did not hesitate and immediately sent the ball to De Bruyne's feet.

After De Bruyne got the ball in the midfield, he keenly observed the situation in the front court.

He made a quick decision, and a precise through ball penetrated the defense of Paris Saint-Germain. The ball flew to the front court like a missile and went straight to Aguero.

Aguero started quickly, shook off the defender, and quickly inserted and received the pass from De Bruyne.

He made a slight adjustment at the edge of the penalty area and faced the oncoming Paris goalkeeper Kevin Trapp.

Faced with this opportunity, he chose a low shot and tried to hit the ball into the lower right corner of the goal.

Paris goalkeeper Trapp reacted quickly, rushed to the ball, and blocked Aguero's shot with his body.

The ball bounced to the edge of the penalty area. Paris's defense had not yet been reorganized, and the situation on the field was in chaos.

At this moment, Li Lei quickly inserted himself, and he quickly determined the landing point of the ball and got the ball before the Paris defenders.

Facing Trapp and the Paris players who were returning to defense, Li Lei was extremely calm.

He adjusted his pace, paused the ball with his left foot, and then calmly pushed it with his right foot.

The ball bypassed Trapp and went straight to the lower left corner of the goal.

Trapp stretched as hard as he could, but still couldn't stop the ball from entering the net.

Facing this sudden goal, Manchester City's players and fans instantly burst into huge cheers.

The score became 1-0, and Manchester City finally broke the deadlock in the 38th minute!

Gao Yi excitedly explained in the live broadcast room: "Dear viewers, Manchester City finally seized a great counterattack opportunity! De Bruyne sent a precise through ball in the midfield."

"Aguero quickly inserted, but Kevin Trapp's shot was saved!"

"But the opportunity was not over yet, Li Lei calmly got the ball and made a beautiful push shot."

"Score! Manchester City scored!City leads Paris Saint-Germain 1-0!"

"Li Lei is amazing! This goal is so crucial!"

"De Bruyne's through ball is so accurate, and Aguero's positioning is also beautiful!"

"Li Lei's calm shot is really wonderful!"

"Manchester City is leading! Keep it up!"

"Trapp has tried his best, but Li Lei's shot is really impeccable!"

Gao Yi continued: "This is a perfect counterattack by Manchester City in the first half."

"De Bruyne's vision and pass, Aguero's speed and positioning, plus Li Lei's calm shot, are perfectly combined. "

"At this moment, Manchester City's efforts have paid off. Let's continue to pay attention to the next game and see how Paris Saint-Germain responds! ”

The sudden fall behind made these proud players of Paris Saint-Germain very uncomfortable.

They immediately launched a counterattack and tried to quickly equalize the score.

In the 40th minute, Paris Saint-Germain controlled the ball in the midfield through continuous passes.

Motta passed the ball to Rabiot, who advanced with the ball. Facing Manchester City's defense, he passed the ball to Di Maria on the right.

Di Maria used his speed and skills to break through Clichy's defense and quickly broke into the penalty area. He kicked the ball and Ibrahimovic Vecchi jumped high and headed the ball.

But Joe Hart once again showed his excellent reaction ability and saved the ball steadily.

Manchester City coach Guardiola was excited on the sidelines, but he knew he had to stay calm at this moment.

He quickly gave instructions, asking the players to relax and strengthen their defense.

Manchester City's 4-2-3-1 tactical formation began to work, and the full-court pressing made Paris Saint-Germain's offense gradually lose its rhythm.

In the 43rd minute, Manchester City intercepted the ball again in the midfield through tight defense. Fernandinho and Fernando formed a solid barrier in the midfield and successfully curbed Paris's advancement.

Li Lei once again showed his speed and skills in a quick counterattack. He broke through from the right and tried to pass the ball to Aguero who was advancing.

But Paris defender David Luiz returned to defense in time and cleared the ball out of bounds.

Near the end of the first half, Paris Saint-Germain still did not give up the attack.

They got a corner kick opportunity in the 45th minute. Di Maria took the corner kick and the ball flew to the center of the penalty area.

Ibrahimovic competed for the header again, but the ball was headed out of the penalty area by Mangala.

Motta shot the ball from outside the penalty area, and the ball went straight to the goal, but Joe Hart once again showed his bravery and lifted the ball over the crossbar with one hand.

Although Paris Saint-Germain continued to launch attacks, Manchester City's defense was very solid.

Otamendi and Mangala cooperated tacitly and successfully resolved the opponent's attacks many times.

Manchester City's midfielders also compressed Paris Saint-Germain's offensive space through active running and pressing.
