Chapter 403 Tactical Arrangement
This conceded goal also caught Mancini by surprise. After all, he started the second half with the idea of ​​expanding the score, but was equalized by Atletico Madrid in less than 10 minutes.

Although Caesar scored the goal, most of the credit should go to Costa.Without the fulcrum he played, Caesar wouldn't have gotten a one-handed shot so easily.

Kompany's face was not good-looking. As the captain of Manchester City, it was a great shame and humiliation for him to allow such a wonderful pass from his opponent.

"Forget about losing the ball just now, anyway, we are the ones who have the advantage now." Silva, who came back to defend, patted Kompany on the shoulder and comforted him.

Yes, the advantage is still with Manchester City. After all, one away goal is worth two, and the score is still flat, so there is no need for Manchester City to worry.

Thinking of this, Kompany calmed down again, wiped his sweat and said: "There is still a lot of time in the game, beware of their sneak attacks."

Silva nodded. The opponent's Caesar really didn't blow out, and Zabaleta didn't even know when he plugged it in.

If this is placed in the Premier League, it must not be blown upside down.

"The game continues! Manchester City still controls the initiative!"

Tevez was a little dissatisfied with this conceded goal. As a frontcourt player, he thought he didn't need to participate in the defense, so naturally it had nothing to do with this conceded goal.

He muttered: "The attacks of just a few people can't be stopped, what's the use of them."

Fortunately, these words were not heard by Kompany and the others, otherwise a team fighting training match might start on the spot.

Kompany has always been somewhat dissatisfied with Tevez, the reason is that this guy rarely participates in defense.Modern football pays attention to the multi-functionality of players. Even the frontcourt players must participate in the defense.

The era of Ronaldo resting for the entire game and only needing a few tens of seconds of flashes has long passed.Even Messi and Ronaldo have to join the defense. This is the general trend of football.

Tevez himself has something to say, he thinks the team needs him in offense, if he wastes energy on defense, he won't have enough strength to participate in offense.

The two sides hold on to their own views, and have not reached a settlement so far.

"I still have to rely on me to overtake the score." Tevez received a pass from Silva and faced the defensive Caesar, confidently said.

"Tevez changed direction and broke through Caesar!"

Caesar himself is fast, but Tevez is not slow, and the defender is always the passive one. It is normal for him to be shaken.

However, Felipe Luis was waiting behind, and Tevez had just broken through, and he was successfully countered by him.

"Luther!" Louis kicked the ball to the front before Tevez made a counterattack, and Caesar immediately accelerated his sprint.

"Caesar's Counterattack!"

Toure immediately came over to fill his position. He was tall, but Caesar was fast. The two fought, and Caesar scored the ball and was superior.

"Caesar broke through Toure! Nasri is chasing after him!"

Nasri managed to catch up with Caesar, but the size gap was too big, Caesar was firmly stuck behind him, and the last shovel failed to keep the ball.

"Nasri failed to intercept! Caesar is still running!"

Kompany rushed out to make up for it. Seeing the determination on his face, Caesar knew that Kompany must have fouled in mind.Caesar, who didn't want to waste this offensive opportunity, crossed the ball in the middle.

"Costa hits the door directly!"

Hart hit the ball with both fists. The ball was played wonderfully and the quality of the save was also very high.

The ball fell to the outside, and Toure, who was chasing back, received the ball.

Just about to counterattack, Vidal made a counterattack.

"Damn it!" Toure didn't see Vidal behind him, and wanted to counterattack, but he didn't even heat the ball.

"Here!" Caesar raised his hand to ask for the ball, Vidal gave it to him, and walked towards the penalty area by himself.

It was Zabaleta who defended Caesar. This time the Argentine was more vigilant, and the first step almost broke Caesar's breakthrough.

"Caesar's movement with the ball is a bit staggering! Zabaleta is pushing up! Caesar's back is turned to him!"

South American players play a lot of small moves, and Zabaleta, as the defender of the Argentine national team, naturally does the same.

With his back turned to him, Caesar felt his thighs pressed against Zabaleta's knees.The point is that this bitch also pinched Caesar's waist, which was fatal.

Caesar exerted strength and slammed his back hard. After slightly bouncing Zabaleta away, he hugged the ball with his ankles and was about to go inside.

Zabaleta took a step across and blocked Caesar's inside line.

As a result, Caesar's right ankle flicked the ball and buckled it to the bottom line.

The ball was pushed and dunked by Caesar, completely fooling Zabaleta.

"Caesar slipped to the bottom line!"

"Inverted triangle pass back!"

Hart again!

Gabi's shot from close range was punched out by both of his fists, saving the situation again.

"Tsk, is this guy in such a good condition?" Simeone scratched his hair, and Boggs reminded: "It's been 10 minutes."

"Okay, tell Saul to come back, we are going to launch a general attack!"

"This period is the attack time of Atletico Madrid, and Manchester City is a little bit overwhelmed!" Rudy clearly saw the dilemma of Manchester City's gradual powerlessness. Their physical fitness could not keep up, and their technical movements were naturally easy to deform.

"Oh? Atletico Madrid is ready to make a substitution! Saul is standing on the sidelines!"

"Go up and stand on the right, let Caesar stay on the left, and the two of you are responsible for attacking their defense." Boggs and Saul are making detailed deployments. This step is very critical. Whether the team can win today depends on him.

Saul nodded, different from his youthful appearance a few months ago, now Saul is full of confidence in himself and the team.

This is what Simeone has been working hard to do. He constantly encouraged Saul and publicly praised him many times in training. All this made the young man gradually confident.

"Go!" Simeone patted Saul on the shoulder, and the little guy nodded vigorously.

"Atletico Madrid make a substitution! Diego, who was staggering a bit, was replaced by Saul! He stood on the right side! Turan came to the middle and took charge of the organization! This is the signal for Atletico Madrid to attack! Manchester City must be careful!"

Mancini also reacted immediately. He sent Kolarov to strengthen the midfield defense and replaced Nasri.

The physical confrontation with Caesar just now caused Nasri to slightly strain his thigh. In order not to drag the team down, he voluntarily asked to leave the field.

Seeing Saul running up, and seeing that Manchester City's goalkeeper is Joe Hart, Caesar had a whim and stopped Saul.

"Give it a shot if you have the chance."

After all, the opponent is Joe Hart, so it doesn't matter if you take more long-range shots.

Saul nodded: "I see!"
