Chapter 665 Sealing the victory!

Chapter 676 Seal the victory!

Guardiola looked serious, and he touched his shiny forehead.

Manchester United are in trouble now!

It's okay if it's only one goal behind, but if it's two goals behind, Guardiola may not be sure that he can get it back.

He called Carrick to his side.Carrick was hacked by many Manchester United fans as the "invisible emperor". In many Manchester United games, Carrick seemed to have a low sense of presence.

Guardiola appreciates players like Carrick. This is a midfielder with a very high ball quotient. He may not receive the ball many times, but he always appears in a key position every time.None of this will happen to Carrick, but with Carrick on the court, he can always create a better environment for his teammates to receive and pass the ball. This is the value of Carrick's type of player.

In fact, Carrick played a lot of time this season. He didn't let Carrick start this game, largely because of the rhythm of the game.

Under such a fast pace, Carrick's weaknesses in movement and confrontation will be exposed infinitely. Therefore, the Archangel can only sit on the bench for the time being in this game.

But now, Guardiola intends to strengthen the offense.

"We're passive right now, Michael!"

Guardiola said with his arm around Carrick's shoulder.

Carrick nodded, he knew the coach couldn't just complain and let him play.

Sure enough, Guardiola still needs to make some tactical adjustments.

"You will replace Rafael. We will play three backs next. You go up to control the midfield with Luca and Thiago. Your responsibility is to respond and pass the ball. Don't lose the ball easily. Then, let Paul's position be higher. We need to play his offensive ability!"

Guardiola's adjustment is very simple. Instead of switching to a striker, he let Pogba go to the frontcourt to participate more in the offense, and Carrick played as a midfielder to make up for Pogba's position. The lack of midfielders!
Manchester United quickly completed the substitution, Carrick came on and replaced full-back Rafael!
Gao Bo saw Manchester United's adjustment, so 2 minutes later, Manchester City also made a substitution!
Vardy was substituted and Barry came off the bench!

When Vardy was replaced, all Manchester City fans stood up and applauded Vardy for scoring a beautiful goal!
His barb goal will be a classic goal in the Manchester derby. With this goal alone, Vardy can be said to have completely established his position among Manchester City fans.

"Barry came on and replaced Vardy. How will Manchester City's formation change with Gao Bo's substitution?" Letkinson said.

Guardiola is also observing Gao Bo's substitution adjustment.

Two minutes later, Guardiola's expression became more solemn. Gao Bo's substitution this time was very targeted, and he responded to his previous substitution!

After Barry came on the field, he and Casemiro formed a double defensive midfielder. These two are the two gates of the midfield, guarding the key positions.

And where did Milner go?
Milner went to play right midfielder!

After this substitution, Manchester City's formation became 4231!

The back line does not move, the defensive midfielders are Casemiro and Barry, the left midfielder David Silva, the front midfielder Griezmann, the right midfielder Milner, and the single forward Dzeko!

After Guardiola made adjustments before, Pogba participated more in the offense, but he is still used to moving on the left side.

The left side of Manchester United's attack direction is the right side of Manchester City's attack direction!
So Gao Bo let Milner come to the right, just to strengthen the defense on this side.

And the offense. Manchester City is completely biased to the left side of David Silva!
Guardiola's heart sank, and he began to realize that it would be too difficult for Manchester United to make a comeback in this game.
However, he hasn't given up yet. His team has used a lot of offensive talent, and they still have a chance!

But Manchester City did not give them a chance!
At this time, Manchester City has five players in the midfield. They firmly control the ball when attacking. When defending, the five midfielders can completely cover the entire midfield. Especially the sweeping ability of the two defensive midfielders brings Manchester City a strong midfield interception ability!
Pogba failed to achieve the effect Guardiola hoped for, and Manchester United's offense fell into trouble after the substitution!

On the other hand, Manchester City, after the change, their offense seems to be smoother. Manchester United only has three defenders left, which gives Manchester City more space!
The effect of Guardiola's substitutions did not show, but Manchester City's offensive after the substitutions was like a wave!

In the 603rd minute of the game, Kararov made a pass from the wing, and Dzeko scored a header in the penalty area, but was rescued by De Gea!

Three minutes later, Manchester City's attack once again threatened Manchester United's goal. David Silva and Griezmann cooperated at the front of the penalty area. Griezmann made a fake shot and passed the ball to the right.
"Manchester United are very passive during this time!!"

The commentators have all seen the current situation of Manchester United!
"They could drop the fifth ball anytime!!"

"If Sanqiu falls behind, Manchester United will lose this game!!!"

Just when people were talking, the boots finally fell to the ground, and the fifth goal came!
Manchester City passed several times in the frontcourt, and finally Griezmann shot Barry!

Barry still has a long-range shooting ability, which is a common characteristic of England midfielders. He is physically strong, has good physical fitness, is very active in defense, and has a good long-range shot.

Just like Lampard and Gerrard, these are two typical English midfielders, they are almost the pinnacle of this type of midfielder.

Barry's long-range shot is powerful!
De Gea's performance is also very exciting, he almost flew in the air, blocking Barry's powerful long-range shot with one arm.

But it blocked the first shot, but failed to block the second shot!
Griezmann's sharp toe in the penalty area poked, and the goal behind De Gea was broken for the fifth time! !
"Griezmann!!! Griezmann!!! He scored his second goal in the Manchester derby, a brace!!!"

"Man City lead Manchester United [-]-[-]!!!"

"Five to two!!! The victory has been secured!!! Manchester City locked the victory in the safe!!! They defeated Manchester United and occupied a favorable position in the long season of the championship!!"
