Chapter 976

"The game entered 60 minutes, and the second half has already started 15 minutes, but Manchester City still failed to make any threatening offense or shot!"

After Andy Gray finished speaking, Richard on the side added:

"Arsenal completely cut off Manchester City's striker. They fought on their own, which made it impossible to form an effective organization. Even if someone stood in the middle, the transfer direction was too monotonous and reluctant, resulting in the overall attack being compressed! "

Andy Gray nodded in agreement; "Arsenal's double defensive midfielders are still too oppressive!"

As Andy Gray said, this game fully utilized Lucky and Kanter's sweeping abilities in the midfield.

Under the steals and interceptions of the two in the midfield, Manchester City's midfield was unable to form a systematic and large-scale advancement, resulting in the complete isolation of the forward players in the frontcourt.

The most uncomfortable player in this game is undoubtedly Aguero.

The Argentine star can hardly get the ball in the frontcourt, and even if he gets the ball, he doesn't have any space to intersperse.

There have been a few hard times, but they were either intercepted by Arsenal or conceded the ball with the ball.

Let alone a shot, he couldn't even kick a threatening attack.

"Maybe it's time for Manchester City to consider a retreat point in the frontcourt!"

The center forward retreat is a commonly used tactic in the Premier League.

Players such as Arsenal and Liverpool use this to strengthen themselves.

Manchester City's center forwards are the kind of players who tend to be flexible and highlight the ability of one foot. Although the overall fitness is very high, they lack some points of change.

This also caused Manchester City's offense to be eaten to death by Arsenal.

If it was Liverpool, these guys rushed forward one by one, and it is estimated that Arsenal's defense would not be able to withstand it.

If Manchester City continues to play like this, for Arsenal, it can only kill the opponent's will to play a little bit.

De Bruyne is tough!

At this time, De Bruyne kept trying to speed up the offensive rhythm and at the same time send a threatening offense.

But Arsenal's midfield gave him too much pressure.

De Bruyne hasn't even had a comfortable touch so far.

Once he gets the ball, one of Xhaka, Kanter or Lucky will come forward to harass him and block his passing route at the same time.

He needs a helper.

For this reason, he hopes that David Silva, the captain, can help him control the rhythm of some midfielders.

But David Silva's grades are old, and his condition is not as good as before. Many times under the pressure of Arsenal, David Silva can't make effective points, and more often he passes back.

This not only did not improve the pressure on De Bruyne, but increased it a lot.

He managed to bring the ball to the threat area, but passed it back to the original point.

How could this upset him?

Guardiola on the sidelines couldn't help but stand up. He has seen the current situation in Manchester City.

The offense could not move forward in a limited way. After Sterling's magical performance in the first half, it seemed that he had lost his magic power again.

Arsenal's pressure is getting stronger.

Guardiola looks back at the bench.

At this time, there are not many players available on Manchester City's bench.

Players such as Mahrez and Delph were injured and suspended.

For now, Manchester City's situation is not much better.

They lack offensive players and are in such a passive backward situation.

Looking at the bench with uneven personnel, even if Guardiola has all-powerful ability, no one can implement his tactical needs.

On the other hand, Arsenal have already begun to prepare for substitutions.

"Defense is the key! Your task is to take Kai's position, let Kai stand in the front position, and at the same time put all your abilities into defense!"

Mourinho said to Koscielny.

Koscielny will play the midfielder position in this game. Since the beginning of this season, Koscielny has appeared in this position many times.

This guy's excellent grabbing awareness and interception ability are valued by Mourinho.

On defense, Koscielny is indeed a good choice.

There is also a substitution quota, and Mourinho will make a full-back substitution.

Mourinho put his arms around Chambers' neck and said: "Sane's physical fitness has been exhausted and he can no longer show that sprint speed, but you also have to be careful of his sudden explosion. Your task is to cooperate with the central defender. Defense, Jimenez will tell you how to defend, remember to communicate more and give more feedback!"

After speaking, Mourinho nodded towards Arteta, who gestured towards the fourth official to make a substitution.

In 70 minutes, Arsenal took the lead in making a substitution.

Xhaka and Monreal are off.

Koscielny and Chambers play.

Arsenal have further increased their defensive capabilities. These two players have not been under much pressure this season, so their physical fitness is still very good.

Playing in this time period can pose a threat to Manchester City players who consume a lot of physical energy.

Mourinho is certain that Manchester City can no longer find a suitable wing attacking player.

The same is true.

When Guardiola was forced to send Sterling on in the first half, Manchester City fell into a passive position both in lineup and tactics.

And at this juncture, Arsenal took the lead in making substitutions, which is an even worse situation.

Guardiola has thought that Arsenal will make substitutions, but they will basically focus on 80 minutes, and he will also have a certain way of adjustment by then.

But he didn't expect that Mourinho would make substitutions and adjustments so quickly.

You know, Arsenal is currently in the lead, and there are no obvious problems with the Arsenal players on the field.

It can only be said that Mourinho's substitution made Guardiola and Manchester City extremely uncomfortable.

In the dead ball stage, Arsenal made a substitution.

Monreal and Xhaka walk off the pitch.

Mourinho hugged the two separately.

"It's really exhausting!"

Xhaka sat down on the bench, panting heavily, and Monreal on the side was in the same situation.

Seeing their expressions, Saka immediately handed over two bottles of water.

Saka said excitedly; "Your performance is great."

After being praised, Xhaka and Monreal also had a smile on their faces.

"You will have a chance in the future. This kind of game is too difficult to play. Any small mistake or swing can cause fatal problems. Fortunately, our forwards are strong enough!"

Saka also smiled and nodded vigorously; "If we win the game, we will be the champions!"

champion!

These two words hit the hearts of Monreal and Xhaka like a heavy hammer.

They have been focusing on the game, but they forgot about it.

Yes!

As long as they win the game, they are the champions.

And only 20 minutes until the end of the game.

And Arsenal are still in the lead.

As long as they don't make too many mistakes, they can win the league championship trophy.

Reversed and won the championship at the last moment.

It's such a cool feeling!

All eyes were on the field.

The game continues after the substitutions have been made.

After undergoing substitution adjustments, Arsenal's defense became more urgent and stable.

Koscielny continued to cause trouble for Sterling by virtue of his physical advantages.

Generally speaking, after Sterling shakes a few times and pulls out half of his body, the opponent's defensive players can hardly keep up.

But Koscielny's physical strength at this time is so strong that it sticks to him like a dog's skin plaster, making him very uncomfortable to play.

Without Lucky's defense, Sterling thought he could play more smoothly, but who would have thought that Koscielny would make him feel even more irritated.

"Pass the ball! Pass the ball!"

"Hey! Pass me the ball!"

Sterling listened to the urgent calls of his teammates, and he cursed in his heart.

What is it called?

It's not that I don't pass it on to you!

Thinking of this, Sterling passed the ball sideways.

But when he passed the ball, Lucky suddenly passed by, and a sliding tackle shoveled the ball to the feet of his teammates.

"Hey!!!"

De Bruyne yelled dissatisfied.

"Why didn't you pass the ball earlier, Arsenal have already reacted, your intention to pass the ball is too obvious, what are you doing!"

Facing De Bruyne's questioning, Sterling's face also became extremely ugly.

I was already playing uncomfortable, but now I have to be criticized by my teammates.

Of course, he also knows that something is wrong with him, but even so, you can't blame me!

At this time, Sterling was like an angry child, becoming more and more irritable in his heart.
