Vol 4 Chapter 238: Cold rain seeps into the bones

   Guardiola makes strict rules for the team's long pass, which is justified. In any case, the accuracy of a long pass is definitely not as superb as a short pass. For a team with a habitual formation, the inherent flaws of the long pass are obviously more hidden.

Four days ago, they played against the Celtics in the Champions Cup group stage at home. In the fourth minute of the game, the goalkeeper Caballero was aiming at the midfield sideline Gundogan's long pass, but the head was slightly owed. Gundogan hurriedly adjusted his position and then the ball Didn't pick it up, but was intercepted by the Celtics and counterattacked. The teenager Roberts broke into the penalty area and broke the goal.

   Today at King Power Stadium, a scene with a different shape but the same quality happened again, and it was cleaner.

   In the second minute, Sarnia passed from Manchester City's defense line to find Ishinacho at the front, but the Manchester City prince lost to the German veteran Huth in the air battle.

32-year-old Robert Hut is the only one of the well-known German players who have not played in Germany. He was poached by Chelsea from the Berlin United echelon at the age of 16. He has been wandering in the Premier League ever since. The defensive general of the German national team during Linsmann's time.

Huth of 191 directly pushed the football back to the front court in the air, with a distance and accuracy. Liad Mahrez ran back to the outside of the foot with a smooth, Islam Slimani straight forward Stuffed.

   Sanya made a long pass, and Manchester City lined up at the same time, and Kolarov jumped to level with Tintin in a few steps. When the ball came back, Manchester City's defensive line no longer had ribs, where it was as empty as the soul of the prodigal son, and Vardy took a through ball in loneliness and took a single shot.

   broke into the penalty area and shot at the far corner. Just 126 seconds into the game, Manchester City fell behind 0:1 in the rain.

   This is the goal conversion rate in Leicester City's counterattack. The process is streamlined to the extreme. Mahrez and Slimani, the Algerian pair of Shuangshens, did not drag the ball. They all took the ball with one kick.

  Valdy even said nothing, bursting out after a violent attack.

  Valdy is actually an old-school English striker with a quick start. Although the technique is a bit rough, he has a decisive shot, a hard toe, and a very strong impact and aggressiveness.

   Vardy, who scored his third goal this season, roared in the rain, like a moving animal world, expressing his anger.

  .

The 28-year-old Welshman Andy King is the No. 10 in Leicester City. He is a veteran from the team’s youth training. He came at the age of 14. These years Andy King accompanied Leicester City in the British Championship and the British Championship. The first team never left, but since the team was promoted to the Premier League, he is no longer the main midfielder.

   This season, Andy King is coming and going, Kanter has left. "Drinker" Drinkwater is either suspended or healed. He finally takes the lead in the midfield of the team with Ghanaian Daniel Amaté.

   In the 4th minute, Leicester City got the ball from the frontcourt and Austrian left back Christian Fuchs showed the unicorn arm and ran the football directly into the penalty area.

   Huth jumped from the front point and then rubbed, Slimani stopped the ball in the middle of the thigh and then knocked back. Andy King volleyed from the top of the arc, Manchester City 0:2.

   Zhuo Yang: "……"

   What are the defensive men doing? Leicester City's two-footed shot turned the score into 2:0. Isn't this day letting people pass?

   Sabaletta and Stones did not compete with Hut in a two-on-one match. The others allowed Slimani to run a huge gap near the penalty spot. The protection of the arc top area was simply to surrender to the enemy.

   Maybe they are still thinking that Leicester City is just the most typical small and medium-sized club, but forget that they are the defending champions, except for Kanter, the steel frame is not lost at all.

   Lost two goals in less than five minutes. This can't be explained by Guardiola's tactics. The sense of responsibility of the Manchester City players on the court has a problem, and the wind and rain are negligent.

   This thing can also be called temperament, or team background.

   Guardiola didn't even have the energy to swear. He even wanted to cry. Some things can no longer be trained and instilled by training.

   Don't press on, or rather die! At this point, the only option is to continue to persecute.

Leicester City, who had retained the complete championship defense line of last season, shrank and swung the bus. The ability to care for the home was definitely not covered. It was not until the 15th minute that Manchester City barely found a chance to shoot for the first time. De Blau made a diagonal shot from the left side of the penalty area. It's wrong.

   In the 19th minute, the fox's long pass came again, and Andy King let the football take off outside the penalty area and the goal was directed towards the left side of Manchester City's backcourt. At this time, there is only one Stones left besides Bravo.

   Mahrez and Vardy formed a two-on-one against Stones in the frontcourt, and things became extremely simple. Mahrez lightly sacked, Vardy single-handedly opened Bravo from close range to push the empty door, 3:0.

   A week ago, Zhuo Yang was very similar to Vardy in the last second of the game against Chelsea. As a single-handed ancestor Zhuo Yang missed, but Vardy, known as the rough brother, was holding it. Who are you going to reason with?

   Look at Guardiola's sad face on the sidelines.

Because of the traditional football style, the game rhythm of the Premier League is the fastest among the five major leagues, especially the overall acceleration within 3 seconds when changing from defensive to attack. This is very high-end. Few teams in other leagues can do it, but in the Premier League At least half of them are equipped with this skill, including Leicester City.

   High-post oppressive teams are actually very afraid of this, so this is also one of the very important reasons for Guardiola's first step into the Premier League.

   Manchester City's possession rate in the first half was not unexpectedly as high as 80%, but in exchange for the threat to Leicester City's goal can not be said almost, but not at all.

   Guardiola does not have the habit of midfield substitutions, so he changed only in the 50th minute after the start of the second half. Sterling and Yaya Toure appeared at the same time, replacing Ishinacho and Navas.

   Ishinacho was very disappointing today. He had zero shots in 50 minutes and only had the lowest 8-foot pass of the team. The suppression of Leicester City's defense line is almost absurd, just like him.

   There is no shortage of football geniuses in this world, but not everyone can succeed. When it is necessary, he will seize the opportunity and add a little luck.

   There are not many opportunities for the big teams to give young players. The main striker Aguero was suspended. Today Ishinacho failed to seize the rare opportunity.

   Touré and Sterling played, Manchester City did not change much on the scene. The possession rate is already 80%. Where else can we change? However, there were finally several scratches that threatened Ziller's shot.

   Manchester City is like an MMA mixed martial arts arena. They slam their opponents on the ground and smash them down like rain, but they defend their elbow guards very well, not only without actual damage, but without any effective points.

   At this moment, I am afraid that the opponent lying on the ground suddenly jumps up and gives you a heavy hammer, or a ground death lock. But the most horrible thing is that you can't live by yourself.

   In the 60th minute, Mahrez drove the ball and galloped along the right side ~ www.ltnovel.com ~ Kolarov clung to his inside. Under pressure, Mahrez swiped the ball too far and directly stabbed Stones who was blocking him.

   No one actually came to rob Stones, Mahrez was tired from running. Stones himself took the ball around the sideline close to the corner and chose to pass back goalkeeper Bravo.

   Bravo didn't expect it, he hurried up to greet Stones' ball away from his foot, but suddenly a man named Vardy sprang up on the ball.

   took the ball to Bravo, Vardy pushed the empty goal at a zero angle, the football pressed the goal line directly into the back post, and was immediately cleared by Sarnia's big foot.

   Fortunately, the latest electronic goal line technology tells the referee Michael Oliver through the headset that the goal is effective.

   The slow motion showed that the moment Sarnia made a clearance, the football just rolled across the goal line, Leicester City 4:0 Manchester City.

   Jamie Vardy, who only scored two goals before this season, completed his first hat-trick in Leicester City and the Premier League, and Guardiola fell behind with four goals for the first time in his coaching career.

   He twisted his head to look at Zhuo Yang who was sitting on the bench, but Zhuo Yang did not take off his pants this time.

   "What do you see me doing?" Zhuo Yang said: "The ball is kicked in such an ugly way, what the **** are you watching me doing?"

   The winter rain on the high ground on the south bank of the Trent River is getting heavier and colder, and it seeps into the bones.
