So does it make sense for Balotelli to play?

Of course there is!

Although Mancini did not dare to attack as hard as Leverkusen, Manchester City also made adjustments. Balotelli's appearance also brought Mancini's new instructions to the team, all pressing forward and pressing high!

In fact, this is why Mancini did not dare to replace a defensive player. He was afraid that the already dangerous line of defense after a high press would become even more dangerous after replacing a defensive player.

…………

Li Wei on the sidelines was not surprised when he saw that Manchester City began to strengthen their pressing.

In fact, Manchester City's adjustment is also expected by him. After all, if Manchester City wants to win, they must press it out.Want to play Liverpool's defensive counterattack?Just dream, Li Wei will not be reversed by Manchester City for the so-called beautiful football.

He also gestured to the Liverpool players on the football field for the first time, asking them to make targeted adjustments.

Before Manchester City's press was only three or four players, Liverpool was not afraid, but now it has become five or six players, Liverpool can no longer think about pouring the ball from the backcourt as easily as before.

They started playing on the counter-attack, giving more possession to City.

But it doesn't mean that Liverpool was unilaterally beaten by Manchester City in the penalty area. On the contrary, when Manchester City besieged Liverpool's penalty area, Manchester City fans felt pain and happiness.They have to be on guard against Liverpool's defensive counterattack.

…………

In the 603rd minute of the game, Manchester City besieged Liverpool's penalty area, but Balotelli took the ball and was cut off by Papastathopoulos.

As soon as Bell saw Papastathopoulos kicking his feet, he immediately ran wildly towards the gate of Manchester City like a wild horse.

Although Clichy has also used his breastfeeding strength, it cannot be said that there are not many full-backs in today's football that can match Bale's speed, and there is definitely no Clichy among them.

Bell was not greedy for merit. After catching up with the football, he knew that his angle was not good. If he chose to cut inside, he would definitely be caught up by Chrissy who was chasing back. He hit the middle with his left foot.

The quality of the pass is not bad, and I found the Brazilian winger Neymar who rushed to the horse.

Neymar didn't stop the ball and volleyed directly. The football hit the ground and formed a rebound.

But this time Joe Hart exploded, flying and lifting the football off the crossbar.

In the subsequent corner kick, Varane missed the header and completely ended Liverpool's attack.

But it also frightened the Manchester City fans, who almost thought they were going to lose the ball when they saw Neymar shoot.Thanks to Joe Hart's brave performance, otherwise Manchester City fans may have to despair.

No. In the 701st minute, Manchester City also got an excellent counterattack opportunity. Lewandowski counterattacked with the ball and was intercepted by Yaya Toure. At Silva's feet, David Silva didn't stop the ball and passed the ball directly to Balotelli.

This caught Liverpool's defense by surprise. Papastathopoulos came up to block Balotelli in a panic, and was tricked by Balotelli's fake move, but at the critical moment Balotelli also After making the feint, he saw that he was going to face the goalkeeper single-handedly, but he slipped on the sole of his foot and fell to the ground.

Felipe Luis quickly went up to make a big foot clearance.

Mancini covered his face with his hands at this time, with a look of eating shit.

As time passed, although the two sides did not score a goal, the atmosphere of the game became more and more heated.

Especially Manchester City's players, they are eager to equalize the score. When Liverpool players have the ball, they often choose to tackle the ball.

No. 707 minutes, when Balotelli was chasing back, he deliberately pulled Stefan Lichtsteiner.

This triggered another skirmish between the players on the football field. Although the referee favored Manchester City, he did not dare to favor at this time. He showed Balotelli a yellow card.

Just 5 minutes later, it was Balotelli again, and he elbowed Papastathopoulos when he was fighting for a header in the frontcourt.

This sparked another skirmish on the pitch, with Liverpool players rushing to surround Balotelli, while Manchester City players also ran to protect Balotelli. Although the two sides did not push and push, their mouths were not clean, and they were spraying trash at each other. talk.

After Kompany went down, Yaya Toure, who was wearing the captain's armband, came up to communicate with the referee. He hoped that the referee would be lenient. Balotelli had already had a yellow card before, so he was given a yellow card. Manchester City will be sent off one person.More importantly, this is almost equivalent to bad news for Manchester City, which is aiming to equalize the score.

But the referee didn't follow Yaya Toure's advice. He shook his head, and the scene was now full of boos.

Li Wei blatantly threatened the referee on the sidelines: "If you don't want this game to lose control, you should send off this executioner! Let everyone know what the consequences of a malicious foul are!"

The Liverpool fans at the scene also kept shouting red cards, putting pressure on the referee.

The referee came to Balotelli.

Bashen looked at the referee blankly, but the referee didn't care what expression Balotelli looked at him. The referee first took out a yellow card and held it up high at Balotelli, and then held it up again. Red card.

Balotelli only showed his expression at this time. He said something to the referee in dissatisfaction, trying to make the other party change his mind.

Apparently a poor choice, Yaya Toure came up and pulled Balotelli away from pestering the referee.Now that the penalty has come out, it is meaningless to continue to entangle, on the contrary, it may cause Balotelli to be suspended afterwards.

Balotelli was still not reconciled after leaving the field, he explained something to Mancini, but Mancini was already annoyed by Balotelli, he pointed at the player channel with a stern expression, and said: "Go back!"

Only then did Balotelli reluctantly walk towards the player tunnel.

Li Wei glanced sideways at Balotelli's leaving back, and shook his head secretly.

Bashen is a very talented player, but Li Wei does not dare to coach him casually. He is the kind of player who can make you feel that he is an angel at one moment and a devil at the next moment.

After Balotelli went off, things got worse for Manchester City.

But Mancini still didn't want to give up the game. He replaced Aguero with Dzeko, and Manchester City switched to simple and rude long passes.

Li Wei also made two substitution adjustments, Moussa Sissoko replaced Bell, and Lallana replaced Neymar.These two played not as wingers, but as full-backs.

In this way, Liverpool has two players on the wing responsible for defense, especially Moussa Sissoko, who is a typical beast player with excellent defensive ability.

Although Lallana is worse than Moussa Sissoko in defense, he has excellent running ability and can make up for defense with running.

It was difficult for Dzeko to make a difference after the two wide passes were difficult to deliver ammunition towards the penalty area.

At the end of the game, neither side scored a goal in the second half.

Liverpool beat the standings leaders Manchester City 2-0.

This also made those reporters and experts who thought that Liverpool would definitely be defeated by Manchester City before the game shattered their glasses.

Liverpool actually won three consecutive victories in the devil's schedule!

Is this... still the Liverpool team that was poisoned by the curse tea?
