Chapter 499 Battle of defending the league title
On May 5, at the Manchester City training base, all Manchester City players and the coaching staff watched the second round of the UEFA Champions League semi-final between Barcelona and Bayern at home.

The moment the roster was announced, Yang Mo felt that Barcelona did not want to win this game.

As the most important core of Barcelona, ​​Messi sat on the bench at the beginning of the game, and had no intention of starting the game at all.

According to the commentary of Sky TV, a tabloid in Catalonia said before the game that Messi was injured in the Copa del Rey game.

After discussing with coach Enrique, Messi was worried about being injured in this game, so he decided not to start.

"Messi is sitting on the sidelines, Barcelona want to give up this game."

As Messi's national team teammate, Aguero knows Messi quite well.

This is a player with a strong desire to win. Under normal circumstances, he will never give up easily. Now he can sit on the bench in such a critical game. Either he is really injured and cannot play, or Barcelona wants to give up the game.

After the game started, the battle situation was just as everyone expected.

In the face of Bayern's attack, Messi did not appear in the game, and Barcelona did not make any decent resistance.

On the contrary, Bayern played more and more happily, scored three goals in one game, and swept Barcelona out of the Champions League with a total score of 7-0.

"The game is over, Bayern won the game [-]-[-], and Barcelona beat Barcelona [-]-[-] in two rounds. Such a result is beyond anyone's imagination."

"On May 28, Bayern Munich and Manchester City led by Yang Mo will meet at Wembley Stadium to compete for the St. Blair Cup."

"This is the second consecutive year that the two teams have met in the Champions League final. In last year's final, Yang Mo led Manchester City to defeat Bayern in a penalty shootout."

"After leaving Bayern, Yang Mo met Bayern in the finals for two consecutive years. I have to say that this is really a fateful arrangement."

"This year, through signings, running-in, and the role of Yang Mo, Manchester City has become unprecedentedly strong. Whether it is the league or the Champions League, they have shown an unstoppable momentum. The [-]-goal massacre of Dortmund in a single game is enough to prove it."

"Bayern, who also went through the process of recruiting, swept Barcelona with seven goals under the leadership of Hai Shuai, and their strength should not be underestimated."

"Is Manchester City the first team to defend the Champions League after the restructuring? Or is it Bayern's shame of losing last year?"

"How will these two teams, which have reached their peak momentum, perform in the Champions League final? It is worth looking forward to by all fans."

"Focus on May 28, and Penguin Sports. At that time, I will go to Wembley Stadium with Director Zhang to bring you this world-renowned Champions League final!"

The live broadcast of Penguin Sports ended in the voice of Huang Jianxiang.

But after the live broadcast ended, domestic netizens got excited.

"Come on, Yang Mo! Climb Bayern to defend the Champions League!"

"It's another battle of revenge, defeating Bayern, making Bayern regret their guts!"

"Two sweeping teams meet in the Champions League final, just think about how exciting it is!"

……

In fact, not only Chinese netizens are looking forward to this Champions League final, but foreign netizens and media are also looking forward to this final.

Manchester City.

Bayern.

This season, the two teams recognized as the best performers in Europe, and each with a sweeping record in the Champions League, met in the Champions League final.

This kind of game, UEFA does not need to promote it at all, it is already the most important highlight of the season.

If you add the encounter between the two teams in the final last season and the grievances and grievances between Yang Mo and Bayern that you only saw, this game will be even more interesting.

Although Yang Mo doesn't care so much about what happened two years ago, the outside world doesn't think so.

Yang Mo fell out with Bayern and left the team at his own liquidated damages.

As a result, after joining Manchester City, he encountered his old owner in the Champions League and led the new team to revenge.

This kind of script, to be honest, only movies dare to write like this.

But he just happened like this, and one year was not enough. In the second year, Yang Mo led Manchester City to meet Bayern in the final.

Whether Yang Mo can beat Bayern in the final for two consecutive years and make Bayern regret what they did back then is what countless ordinary fans want to see most.

However, the turmoil from the outside world has been unable to affect Manchester City, which is devoting itself to the end of the season.

Barcelona was swept by Bayern 7-0 in two rounds in the Champions League, which somewhat helped Manchester City share some of the attention, making Manchester City a rare low-key for a while.

In such a low-key, Manchester City ushered in their championship battle.

On May 5th, Manchester City rushed to Swansea away to prepare for the 4th round of the Premier League this season at the Swansea Liberty Stadium.

Although this game was not a contest between strong teams, the game still attracted the attention of countless media.

Before the start of the game, more than [-] media from all over the world rushed to Swansea, which almost overwhelmed the small media area in Swansea.

This is a game that will decide the Premier League title this season, and no fan will fail to pay attention.

In the stands of the Swansea Liberty Stadium, which can accommodate 21000 people, there are at least [-] Manchester City fans traveling with the team today to witness the scene of Manchester City defending the league title.

In the hands of these people, apart from flags, banners, and scarves, the most supportive items are Premier League trophies made of cardboard.

The fans of Blue Moon are already ready to hold the cup in advance.

At the beginning of the game, when Yang Mo came on the stage, the singing of [-] Manchester City fans instantly turned the Liberty Stadium into Manchester City's home court.

From the team song to We Are the Champions, and finally Yang Mo's exclusive song, every song is full of passion.

Amidst the neat singing of the fans, the game officially started.

"Friends in the audience, the Premier League No.30 six rounds between Manchester City and Swansea has begun!"

"Nine and 10 minutes from now, we could well see Manchester City claiming their second Premier League title and becoming the third team to defend the Premier League title since its inception."

"Yang Mo's performance is very positive. It seems that he does not want any surprises in winning the championship."

Accompanied by Zhan Jun's voice, this battle for Manchester City's championship began at Manchester City's kick-off.

From the very beginning, Yang Mo wanted to use his personal strength to forcibly break through.

However, Swansea didn't give the defending champion face. Two people double-teamed and one tackled the ball, forcing Yang Mo's breakthrough to the side.

Yang Mo, who was felled on the lawn, was pulled up from the lawn by Swansea defender Lager, and smiled helplessly.

Zhan Jun: "Swansea's defense is very resolute, and it doesn't mean to help Manchester City. Manchester City's offense fell into a stalemate from the beginning."

On the field, as Zhan Jun said, Manchester City's aggressive attack at the beginning did not succeed immediately.

Swansea didn't have any defensive plans since the beginning, and put the bus directly in front of the goal.

This kind of attitude that I don't want to win myself, and you don't want to win, made Manchester City's several waves of attacks fruitless and very annoyed.
