Football: From Bundesliga debut

As of the 37th round of the Premier League.

Manchester City has scored 80 points, which is exactly the same as Liverpool in second place, but suffers from less goal difference.

This is also a rare time in the Premier League that it has not been confirmed who will win the championship at the last moment.

The 37st round of the Premier League.

As long as Manchester City wins Everton and Liverpool does not win, it means that Manchester City has touched the Premier League championship trophy with one hand.

In this round of the league, both sides have scored 80 points, and the next two rounds of the league will determine the final league champion.

Compared with the opponents between the two, it seems that Manchester City's opponents are Everton and West Ham United; while Liverpool's opponents are relatively weaker Crystal Palace and Newcastle United.

It seems that at least one of Manchester City's opponents is in the top five, while Liverpool will be relatively easy.

But will Crystal Palace's home court easily make Liverpool retreat?
Manchester City, who is a guest at Everton's Goodison Park Stadium, will also face the offensive of the little monster Lukaku. As the strongest No. 9 player at present, his oppression will not be that simple.

The current top four are all in place:
1. Manchester City: 80 points scored/lost goals: 106/44
2. Liverpool: 80 points scored/lost goals: 96/47
3. Chelsea: 78 points scored/lost goals: 75/30
4. Arsenal: 73 points scored/lost goals: 72/43
5. Everton: 69 points scored/lost goals: 72/47
6. Tottenham Hotspur: 65 points scored/lost goals: 57/51
Liverpool and Manchester City are currently able to compete for the championship. Whoever loses in the next two rounds of the league will be left behind. Of course, if Manchester City wins all, then Liverpool can only prove themselves by scoring wild goals at the end.

Goodison Park is about to usher in their penultimate round.

This game is about the competition for the top spot. As Liverpool's rivals in the same city, the hatred between them is much deeper than that of the Manchester City duo.

This campaign does not rule out Everton's troubles for Manchester City to take all three points.

For this possible situation, Liverpool's head coach Rodgers also spoke out in the media: saying that competitive games need to go all out to avoid "friendly games".

This kind of meaningful words made Everton's Roberto Martinez very upset, how can I arrange it, let you, the sworn enemy, take care of it?

Are you kidding me?
But he didn't intend to make it easier for Liverpool. He directly revealed his starting lineup in an interview.

"For the game against Manchester City, we Everton are ready. The formation of 3421 is our greatest respect for the enemy of Manchester City. We will not let water like some people say, for fear that they will only be humiliated in the end. Get out of Selhurst Park!"

He laughed out loud after speaking, the whole image made some Liverpool fans present hate their teeth itchy!
When Pellegrini looked at the starting list, he frowned.

[At the top is Lukaku, behind him are Osman and Naismith, and in the midfielder are Barkley and McCarthy; the wingbacks on both sides are Baines, Coleman, and three central defenders: Stone S, Jagielka, Alcaraz, goalkeeper: Edward. 】

Faced with such a lineup, Pellegrini directly changed his configuration.

[Double forwards: Dzeko, Aguero
Forwards: David Silva, Milner
Double defensive midfielders: Zheng Lin and Xavi Garcia
Defense: Clichy, Mikalis, Kompany, Zabaleta

Goalkeeper: Joe Hart]

Comes June 5th.

Goodison Park was already packed with fans.

In this campaign, Everton chose to attack first and gave up the right to choose sides.

Lukaku kicks off, this black and tough big man will be one of Manchester City's key man-markers.

When all the attention is on Lukaku, it is easy to miss other players.

This time too!

Above the first 10 minutes of the game.

Zheng Lin, who served as the defensive midfielder, missed Barkley who was plugging in for the first time, and his partner Harvey Garcia did not catch up immediately.

This also caused the source of Manchester City's first conceded goal.

Naismith received a pass back from Osman. He saw Barkley who was already plugged in. He passed the ball diagonally so that Barkley did not need any adjustments and shot directly.

"The goal was scored! This is another goal conceded by Manchester City after the opening game. This goal was obviously caused by a communication error at the midfielder position."

"When Zheng Lin went to Naismith, Harvey Garcia was staring at Everton's wing back, which gave Barkley a chance to plug in."

With Barkley's goal, the cheers of Goodison Park began to sound.

Obviously, they broke through Manchester City's goal and the whole thing made them very happy. This is something worth cheering. Although the final result is still unknown, this situation is obviously telling them that the team has not given up on this game!
The game restarts.

Manchester City's offense is aggressively pressing up at this time, which also forces Lukaku, who is staying in front, to choose to retreat to share the pressure of defense.

Facing such a defense, Manchester City has also experienced a lot. Zheng Lin organized the game in an orderly manner. For him, he is clear about the positioning of the entire field.

And his choice is to find his best partner - David Silva.

Observing a good position, Zheng Lin is very confident that David Silva can run out. He made a powerful long pass and flew directly towards the small penalty area on the left.

"The ball is in!"

"The passing of this ball is surprising, but the goal is so natural. The connection between Zheng Lin and David Silva is becoming more and more tacit. This tacit understanding reminds me of Habubai and the others. Three people, but Zheng Lin is still young, when he can grow to that height, David Silva will probably retire soon, right?"

"1-1, only 10 minutes away from the last goal, Manchester City directly equalized the score."

After the goal, Pei Gong directly replaced Aguero. Obviously, he felt that if Zheng Lin's current defense in the midfielder and Xavi Garcia met together, then he would go directly to Fernandinho. Can defend solidly.

It is enough to have Dzeko alone in the forward line!

After the substitution, Zheng Lin moved forward, and his linkage with David Silva at this time was even more surprising.

This may be the sympathy between geniuses.

"Zheng Lin once again stole Osman's pass. This guy's performance has really become more and more stable. That is to say, after the game against Barcelona, ​​Zheng Lin felt stable on the field. Except for occasional mistakes, his Passing, shooting choices, defensive positioning, etc., are not like a young man;

Sometimes I think that according to this guy's growth rate, he may soon be a first-line midfielder, right? "

For this topic, no one answered, because this is really unclear, what if it is a "shooting star"?Maybe it's just a matter of smashing the signs. It's better to do less about commenting on players, or you can look at which old football champion in Brazil.

After the steal, Zheng Lin dribbled the ball forward. His speed was very fast, and the distance of the ball was also very large. This made Barkley on one side think of stealing.

Will Zheng Lin, who has learned high-speed dribbling with "Kaka", lose the ball so easily?
Obviously impossible.

Barkley, who shot out from the oblique stab, did not grab the ball, but instead had a wave of physical confrontation with Zheng Lin.

The result was that Zheng Lin still pushed forward with the ball, while Barkley was knocked out and almost fell.

"Zheng Lin went straight, the football went straight through Jagielka's wicket, Dzeko took the lead and scored again!"

"Immortal love came to the 43rd minute. Dzeko helped Manchester City to make the next [-]%. At this time, they were already ahead. They just need to keep the victory, and then the pressure will come to Liverpool."

"drop"

As the whistle sounded, Everton did not reap a decent attack in the final period of the first half.
