Chapter 877 Strong Manchester City

889 Strong Manchester City

In recent years, there are often old faces in the semi-finals of the Champions League.

In particular, the three teams of Real Madrid, Barcelona and Bayern were once called the super giants of the universe team.

Look at the list of the Champions League semi-finals in recent years-Real Madrid, Barcelona and Bayern are almost never absent.

However, even with such a powerful Bayern, when they were drawn to play against Manchester City, the German media was almost full of wailing-it is too difficult to beat Manchester City this season.
Manchester City is now regarded as the strongest team in the world, and even Huang Saren is inferior! !
Especially the Bundesliga giants have lost to Gao Bo's team many times.

In the 2012-2013 season, Gao Bo's Atletico Madrid defeated Bayern.

Last season, Gao Bo's Manchester City also defeated Bayern in the Champions League.

This season, in the knockout round, Simeone's Atletico Madrid was eliminated by Manchester City without bloodshed-you know, the current Atletico Madrid team has great hopes of winning this season's La Liga championship team!
Being able to beat Barcelona and Real Madrid shows the strength of Atletico Madrid, but even so, they are still easily defeated by Manchester City! !
Although Bayern is about to win the Bundesliga championship this season, the competitiveness of the Bundesliga is not as good as that of La Liga. At least the Bundesliga does not have super giants like Barcelona and Real Madrid.

And Manchester City can achieve such results in an environment like the Premier League, even the Germans, who have always been at odds with the British, have to be amazed.

At least, in the German media, it is almost difficult to see the presence of media that are optimistic about Bayern Munich.

It is unanimously pessimistic about Bayern Munich, which is quite a rare situation in Germany. It can be seen that Manchester City is putting pressure on the major European giants.

Regarding the unanimous pessimism of the domestic media, Ancelotti obviously has a different view.

"There are no weak teams in the Champions League, Manchester City is strong, but we are Bayern Munich!"

The good old Ancelotti rarely said such things in the media, and Bayern Munich players and fans are obviously very dissatisfied with being unanimously looked down upon.

"We have three Champions League titles!"

In front of the media cameras, Thomas Muller held out three fingers.

"Bayern Munich has always been a team to be feared, we will never be afraid of others." Schweinsteiger said.

"We will prove ourselves. I always want to win a Champions League trophy for Bayern Munich!" Bayern Munich's captain Lahm also expressed his position in front of the media.

"The Allianz Arena is our turf!" Although Robben was unable to play due to injury, he still publicly shouted for his team in the media.

Bundesliga Hollywood Bayern Munich is very lively.

In England, reports from Fleet Street were rosy.

Bayern Munich is the sufferer of many Premier League teams. Arsenal, for example.

It has almost become a rule for Arsenal to enter the Champions League every year, qualify for the group stage every year, and play Bayern every year after qualifying.

With Arsenal alone, Bayern Munich has a lot of winning percentages against Premier League teams.

If other Premier League teams played against Bayern Munich, the English media would not dare to be so optimistic.

There are many tragic experiences in the match between English football and German football.

The rivalry between the two arch-rivals shows in every way, though, in football... it seems the Germans always find a way to take on the English.

So much so that England football star Lineker lamented in his book "The Spirit of Football": Football is a game in which 22 people fight hard on the field and the Germans win in the end.

However, this time the media in England seemed to be extra confident.

Although Manchester City is an English club, their head coach is not from England.

Moreover, rational analysis.

In terms of hard power, Manchester City is definitely stronger than the current Bayern Munich.

Bayern Munich's book lineup may not be much different from Manchester City, but the combat effectiveness of the two sides, Manchester City's stability, and offensive and defensive capabilities are obviously higher than Bayern Munich.

From this perspective, there is nothing wrong with being optimistic about Manchester City's promotion.

"We will not consider this issue for the time being."

In the third round of No.30 in the league, at the pre-match press conference where Manchester City played against Sunderland at home, head coach Gao Bo did not answer the topic of the Champions League when facing reporters' questions.

"Our opponent in this game is Sunderland, so I will not answer other questions!"

Gao Bo said.

Interested media can immediately see Gao Bo's attitude towards the game from Gao Bo's attitude.

The media who have studied Gao Bo's coaching style have made a summary of Gao Bo's character.

For some heavyweight opponents, Gao Bo is always reluctant to let the media and his players have too much contact, and he always tries to cool down the heat of the media.

This is what a sane head coach does.

In other words, this is Gao Bo's approach.

From this point of view, Gao Bo attaches great importance to the game against Bayern Munich.

In the three rounds of No.30 in the league, Manchester City sent a main lineup.

There are still seven days to go until the first leg of the Champions League semi-final, and City have two games to play in that time.

League No.30 will play against Sunderland in three rounds at home, and League No.30 will play against West Bromwich Albion in four rounds at home.

The schedule can be described as quite tight.

And this game can also be seen as a preview before the start of the Champions League semi-finals.

Manchester City's main force is to let Manchester City's main players maintain a good state through the game a week before the big battle. After all, if the main players are kept resting, if the game state is rested, Gao Bo will want to find a piece of tofu and kill him.

Facing Manchester City's full main lineup, even if Sunderland's away game has a very serious relegation task, the Black Cats are indeed very desperate.

But they still could not avoid defeat at the Etihad Stadium.

In the first half of the game, Griezmann scored twice to help the team take a [-]-[-] lead.

The second half of the game had just begun, and Hazard made a very exciting shot in the penalty area and sent the ball into the opponent's goal. The score became [-]-[-].

Then, Gao Bo began to dispatch troops.

Kaka, Eriksson, and Vardy appeared successively.

They are all substitutions and adjustments on the offensive end. This is a player who may be used in the away game against Bayern Munich. This also shows Gao Bo's mentality-even if it is an away game, Manchester City must occupy the leading role in the offense.

Strong!

This is the characteristic of Gao Bo's Manchester City.
