At seventeen, I went to Spain to win the World Cup

Chapter 78

"The live camera just showed an interesting scene. It seems that Guardiola's daughter has been turned against the team."

"Maria is wearing Lin Chen's jersey and cheering for him."

Both sides entered the field. After a tense and exciting coin toss, Liverpool was determined to kick off first.

Firmino stood at the kick-off point. As many as seven Liverpool players lined up horizontally on the midfield line.

Coach Zhan's eyes were focused.

"This..."

"From the opening position, Liverpool is going to play against Manchester City?"

"Play against Manchester City at Etihad?"

"Some fans may not know that although Manchester City lost all four major titles last season and ranked fourth in the league, it was mostly because of the poor away record and injuries to the main players."

"Last season, Manchester City had a terrifying unbeaten record at home!"

Atkinson blew a whistle!

"Beep!!!"

Seven Liverpool players started a sprint!

"Firmino passes back!"

"Lin Chen receives the ball and passes it to the left, Mane gets the ball on the wing and stops and passes!"

"Trying to compete with Walker in speed!"

"He's caught up!"

"He barely protects the ball, stops and dunks it to the top of the penalty area!"

"Henderson follows up and shoots!"

Henderson's shot was powerful, but unfortunately the angle was too straight, and Ederson seized the ball steadily.

The seven Liverpool players who advanced at the same time retreated frantically again at this moment, showing a mad dog-like spirit on the court!

Coach Zhang looked at it and felt familiar. He suddenly thought, isn't this the wolf pack tactics presented by France in the U17 World Cup final some time ago?

"From the current offensive running position, it seems to be a wolf pack tactic."

"Klopp should have integrated France's wolf pack tactics with super high pressure!"

Excellent head coaches always take the initiative to absorb new and advanced tactics, and Klopp is doing so.

Just after returning to the team, Lin Chen first increased running in the midfield to find the rhythm of the first team.

After all, the opponents faced in the Premier League are completely different from those faced in the U17 World Cup.

What's more, in this game, he will face David Silva, the Spanish magician, and De Bruyne, the leader of the Belgian golden generation.

With the experienced Fernandinho, this will definitely be a difficult challenge.

Fernandinho is very experienced and has been close to Lin Chen since the start of the game.

When Lin Chen runs without the ball and prepares to receive the ball, Fernandinho will take the initiative to move away, leaving a certain distance first.

When Lin Chen controls the ball, he will rush up again, and this kind of steal has been tried and tested.

Lin Chen's ball control ability is still in the initial growth stage, so it is extremely uncomfortable to face Fernandinho.

The rhythm becomes intermittent, and Lin Chen can only barely rely on his body to protect the ball, but can't find space to pass the ball forward.

"At this time, we can see that the old players are experienced. Fernandinho is indeed the top midfielder in the Premier League today."

"Although Lin Chen can protect the ball with his physical advantage, the route of passing the ball forward is completely blocked."

Seeing Liverpool's attack blocked, Manchester City gradually regained the ball.

The powerful ball control system enveloped Liverpool, penetrating like water, pressing forward little by little, squeezing Liverpool's defense line little by little!

Gradually, Liverpool found that they were passively following the ball and being dispatched by Manchester City.

The super high pressure was also delayed in implementation, Manchester City's passing frequency became faster and faster, and there was more space for passing!

The 19th minute of the game!

"Fighting in the middle, David Silva carries the ball forward."

"Lin Chen intercepts head-on, but Silva's ball control is very sharp, and he passes the ball to the wing with his back to the goal!"

"Benjamin Mendy sweeps hard!"

"The iconic low ball is transferred to the right, Kevin De Bruyne moves forward!"

"There is a chance to cross the ball!"

The moment De Bruyne just stopped the ball, Lin Chen ran desperately towards the penalty area, and he saw the space at the back post!

De Bruyne kicked the ball and passed it!

The iconic rainbow pass drew a beautiful arc in the air!

Over Lovren's head, straight to the back post!

Aguero's ghostly movement, I don't know when he swam behind Robertson!

Liverpool fans seemed to be immobilized in an instant, staring at Aguero.

The Argentine center jumped high!

Just as he was about to head the ball, Lin Chen rushed over!

Diving to the top!

He cleared the ball out of the baseline first!

"Beautiful!"

"Lin Chen returned to defense in time, Manchester City got a corner kick opportunity!"

After successfully clearing the ball, Lin Chen stood up and patted Robertson.

"Pay attention!"

Robertson nodded gratefully.

"De Bruyne took the corner kick and wanted to play a tactical corner kick."

"David Silva received the ball and made an inverted triangle! "

"Fernandinho follows up and shoots!"

"Henderson blocks the shot with his body, and the ball bounces to the left!"

"Mane passes the ball to Firmino, all with one foot!"

"Straight pass! Salah shakes off Mendy and moves forward!"

"Drive the ball forward, Liverpool's counterattack opportunity!"

"Stop and cut inside, continue to move towards the middle, Salah's cutting speed is very fast and the frequency is very high!"

Manchester City has as many as two people surrounding Salah, trying their best not to give him shooting space.

The Egyptian Pharaoh is still forcing a change of direction, twisting his body and raising his foot to shoot!

"Bang!!!"

Coach James exclaimed!

"Ouch!"

"Stones blocked successfully!"

"The game is too fast, and both sides are crazy about attack and defense conversion!"

"Manchester City is attacking with the ball, and Liverpool will counterattack if they are not careful! "

"Once Liverpool loses the ball, Manchester City will find an opening to attack. The two top teams are fighting, which is a manifestation of true strength!"

No one dares to make any mistakes, as even a small mistake may be infinitely magnified by the opponent.

At this moment, the gap between amateur players and professionals is truly reflected to the extreme.

Lin Chen has been observing, and 30 minutes have passed since the start of the game.

Some Manchester City fans are not friendly. Whenever Liverpool players pass the ball, there are always Manchester City fans booing.

Especially when Lin Chen was blocked by Fernandinho with the ball, some Manchester City fans even laughed.

Since his sudden appearance, Lin Chen has almost taken all the limelight from Manchester City's prince Phil Foden. Some Manchester City fans naturally don't have a good opinion of him at the moment.

Lin Chen accepted all the boos and middle fingers.

He still focused on the game and gradually found his advantage.

It was indeed difficult to control the ball when facing Fernandinho, but when running without the ball, Kaka's skills burst out instantly, combined with his strong physical advantage, he could completely push Fernandinho away and get a fleeting opportunity!

Lin Chen began to increase his running and actively sought space to press forward.

39th minute of the game!

"Manchester City is still in control of the ball."

"The wing attack is slow, and it doesn't seem to be in a hurry."

"De Bruyne holds the ball and passes it straight, looking for Walker."

"Robertson predicts accurately and flies to make a tackle to steal the ball!"

"Still looking for Mane!"

"Walker chases back, but Mane has a lot of room to advance! "

Lin Chen started immediately and pushed forward with all his strength!

Fernandinho turned around in a hurry, but Lin Chen burst out instantly, squeezed Fernandinho and rushed to the top of the penalty area!

Mane immediately made a reverse triangle!

A very comfortable pass!
