football dynasty

As soon as the game started, Manchester City had an absolute advantage at home.

Fulham is very uncomfortable with Manchester City's running and bombing tactics. In fact, in this era, few teams can adapt to high-intensity pressing tactics.

In addition to pressing, Manchester City is very particular about one touch.

Their offense is very fast, and often when the opponent's defensive players are still running, the football has reached the danger zone.

In the 208th minute of the game, Manchester City broke the deadlock.

Robinho shot three people into the penalty area in a row. Although the old Australian goalkeeper Mark Schwarzer is 36 years old, the veteran has performed well this season. He bravely saved Robinho's shot.

It is no wonder that in history, he was voted Fulham's player of the year by the fans that season.

If nothing else, he will still be Fulham's Player of the Year this season.

However, although Schwarzer saved Robinho's shot, he couldn't prevent Wright Phillips' follow-up shot.

1: 0!

Manchester City first scored a goal away!
After that, Manchester City's offensive became more and more fierce.

However, Schwarzer's performance was even better. This veteran who came to English football in the mid-90s of the last century, seemed to be the incarnation of "Van der Sar", and his performance was so brave that it was doubtful whether he had changed his age.Is this a 36-year-old goalkeeper?Look at that vigorous movement, look at that excellent save, no matter how you look at it, you are a 26-year-old goalkeeper!

In the end, Manchester City returned to the locker room with a goal in a slightly regretful mood.

The expressions of the Fulham players were a little dignified. Although they did not let Manchester City continue to break through their own gate, they also failed to break through the gate guarded by Adler, and they did not even have a shot that threatened Adler.

For this reason, the narrator even joked: "If Adler is given a bed, he can sleep peacefully for 45 minutes."

Li Wei's expression was relaxed. He was involved in the negotiations with Manchester United recently, so he didn't give much advice during the halftime break. He just said lightly that the players played well and continued to play like this.

The second half had just begun, but suddenly the situation changed suddenly.

In the 50th minute, Dempsey scored with a low shot from 15 yards.

In the 59th minute, Etuhu shot into the upper corner from the penalty area.

In the 83rd minute, Zamora made a direct pass, and Dempsey shot into the net from the left side of the penalty area.

Manchester City's four-game winning streak in all competitions ended...

However, the most heartbreaking thing is that Manchester City's dream of winning the championship was shattered...

Because of the loss to Fulham, the point difference between Manchester City and No.2 Manchester United has widened to eight points, and the point difference between No.1 Liverpool has widened to ten points!

With only six rounds left in the league, is it possible for Manchester City to go ahead and win the championship?
This can be based on Manchester City's six-game winning streak, and both Liverpool and Manchester United have suffered more than three defeats.

…………

After the game, the "Manchester Evening News" directly used "Dream Broken" as the headline to describe the Manchester City players after this game.

In fact, the Manchester City players were also very frustrated. Although they did not cry on the spot, it can be seen that many players looked very sad.

The league championship is such a wonderful trophy!
There are also a large number of experts and professors who conducted in-depth analysis of this game... "Why did Manchester City be reversed by Fulham at home when they advanced by one goal? The main reason I think is the strength of the spirit. This season, Hodgson's coaching Fulham has become a rope, displaying amazing combat effectiveness. On the contrary, although Manchester City has achieved good results under Levi's coaching, Manchester City's players are all superstars and stars, and Levi wants to convince them It's not easy."

"Physical problems are also a very big problem. Manchester City has played double games a week for two consecutive weeks. Moreover, their style of play consumes a lot of physical energy. In order to win the championship, Li Wei no longer rotates. Every game is almost The main force is all out, and this is partial rotation in one or two positions. If this kind of game continues, how much energy will Manchester City's players have in the second half? If Li Wei continues to insist on high-position pressing tactics and does not rotate, I will It can be guaranteed that this season Manchester City will never win another championship except the League Cup!"

…………

In addition to the above reasons, Li Wei also knew another reason, he also underestimated the enemy.

In other words, the secret negotiations with Manchester United involved a lot of his energy.He interrupted negotiations with Manchester United to concentrate on preparing for the FA Cup.

April [-], FA Cup semi-final.

Arsenal VS Manchester City at home.

Many Arsenal fans think they can win easily because Manchester City is not in good shape now.

In the game, Li Wei even made a rotation, Aguero sat on the bench, and Sturridge replaced him.Robinho and Wright-Phillips moved into the stands, replaced by Royce and Paul Petrov.

With the tridents with super offensive power in the frontcourt withdrawn, wouldn't Arsenal have a higher chance of winning?
However, the result was different from what everyone imagined.

In the second minute of the game, Royce received a through ball from Hazard, cut in from the right, rode through the barrier alone, and broke Cech's ten fingers with a lob shot.

If this was an accident, then what happened next made Professor Wenger frown into a zigzag.

Manchester City arranged for Milner to guard Fabregas tightly, and besides Milner, players such as Sturridge, Hazard, Royce, and Paul Petrov would take turns assisting Milner to harass Fabregas .

Levi, who came from later generations, knows very well that Cesc Fabregas, the core midfielder who is currently performing well in Arsenal, is not as powerful as the media advertises. He has a fatal weakness.

That's right, Fabregas' ability to pass the ball forward and pass the threatening ball is very strong, and his ability to score in the back row is also very strong.But Cesc Fabregas couldn't control the ball calmly under high-level and high-intensity confrontation, and he was prone to mistakes and steals.

In addition, Fabregas' personal fighting will and mental attributes are also very average, far from being comparable to British and German players, which determines Fabregas' habitual soft-ass performance in competitions.His performance in the competition is not as good as Gerrard, Lampard and others who are rougher than him, because the latter is much tougher than Cesc Fabregas and has a much stronger fighting will.Cesc Fabregas is a purely technical player, and his physical confrontation and speed are also very average. The flaw in his technical ability caused his career to become bumpy after his transfer to Barcelona.
