I brush achievements in football

Southampton played so actively in the away game as soon as they came up, which was indeed unexpected by Manchester City.

Their technical content is actually not bad. Even De Jong, who plays the midfielder in the midfield, is a Dutch player. Of course, his skills at his feet are not bad. Barry is also an organizational midfielder, but in fact their basic skills are not bad. It is not delicate enough, the pass is no problem, but it is a bit difficult to take the ball and break through.

Among the three midfielders, Yaya Toure is the one who really has the ability to break through.

So facing Southampton's high-position press as soon as they came up, they were indeed quite uncomfortable.

Although they created a chance in the first 2 minutes, David Silva broke through from the side and passed to the center. Yaya Toure, who followed up, took the first shot and was saved by Navas.

But in the following time, they failed to get the chance to attack for a long time!

"Forcing! Oppressing!"

Ji Ya shouted from the sidelines, anyway, the game has just started, and the players are full of energy, so he is not worried about anything.

Barry's transfer ball was intercepted by Matuidi in the middle. After intercepting the ball, he quickly passed the ball to the front. Vidal took the ball. Instead of breaking through, he passed it to William and continued to advance.

William began to move forward at high speed along the wing, and Clichy stepped up, but William was still not worried about anything. He was tall and heavy enough, not the kind of fragile winger.

Under Clichy's entanglement, William still forcibly dribbled the ball to a place close to the penalty area line, and then passed the ball to Klein who came up to meet him. Klein went down the sidewalk and attracted Clichy. , Passed the ball to William again.

William immediately shifted to the center, and Ronaldo, who switched to the center, took the ball and looked at De Jong who came up to defend. Ronaldo stepped on a single knife lightly, attracting the attention of De Jong and Kompany behind him, Only then did he lift his foot and pass the ball diagonally into the penalty area!

Vidal, who went forward, just received a pass from Ronaldo!

Lescott struggled to block - Vidal was able to shoot directly from this position, but after seeing him rushing over, Vidal cleverly lifted the ball and passed the ball to the middle of the penalty area...

Klose, who has been running, appeared in that position!

Facing Joe Hart who was attacking, Klose lobbed the ball lightly, and the ball passed Joe Hart's body!

The ball drew an arc and flew into the gate of Manchester City!

The entire Etihad Stadium immediately became silent!

"Goal! Klose! Fantastic goal! The German striker scored in his first game for Southampton! Visa-free Klose, it's really gone for Southampton A good move!"

Klose opened his arms and ran to the visiting team stands. Southampton fans have always welcomed him. Every time during training, there are the most fans waiting for him to sign his autograph-this is actually normal, who let Klose How famous is Luo Ze?

But this kind of treatment cannot be enjoyed in Bayern...

So Klose has always felt that it was the right thing to transfer to Southampton and reject Lazio's invitation.

"Good job, keep going." Ji Ya and Klose clapped their hands together and said loudly.

Mancini touched his chin. He really didn't expect this wave of Southampton's press, but he didn't respond too much.

He can't believe how well Southampton can do.

This kind of high-position pressing is Barcelona's unique stunt. Guardiola swept the whole of Europe when he took it out three seasons ago. Three La Liga teams are enough for them to create a great era.

This kind of high-level press is learning from the giants all over Europe. Can a newly promoted Southampton be able to learn better in front of others?

Just kidding it is.

So he just pressed the hand and told the players to calm down a bit.

The game restarts.

The fans of Manchester City continued to shout, they did not believe that their team would be suppressed by Southampton, but the following game seemed to prove this very well...

Southampton continued to press in the midfield, and once they got the ball, they began to pass continuously to find opportunities-high pressing and ball possession attack!

Manchester City fans were a little confused for a while, not knowing whether their team was facing Barcelona or Southampton-this jersey was different.

The Manchester City players on the field empathize even more. The oppression brought by Southampton is real, and it is real that they are suppressed both offensively and defensively.

The commentators were about to collapse when they looked at the data - after half an hour of the game, Manchester City's ball possession rate was only 30.00%, completely suppressed by Southampton!

"It's unbelievable that Southampton can suppress Manchester City like this through running and pressing!"

"In the confrontation in the midfield, the combination of Vidal Matui and Dembele actually suppressed the combination of De Jong Barry and Yaya Toure! Southampton's midfield has two newcomers!"

The commentators from all walks of life began to doubt life, and Mancini felt more and more strange the more he watched.

He doesn't think that Southampton's players are better than Manchester City's. Although they are indeed very red, they must be able to suppress Manchester City to this point because they have too much tactical advantage.

But both sides are four-three-three, and the specific tactics seem to be similar. Where is Southampton's tactical advantage? This is a question that Mancini has not figured out.

At his level, a head coach will not lose his composure for a long time because of the gains and losses of a game. It is not terrible to see a problem. As long as you can figure it out and solve it, it is not a problem. problem, still can't solve...

Mancini will now see to understand this problem.

On the field, the two sides are still fighting fiercely, Southampton has the upper hand, and Manchester City relies on the personal ability of the players to create some opportunities.

Adam Johnson broke through from the side and made a cross. Silva, who switched to the center, shot directly at the ball. Wundt's block was a step slower, and the ball whizzed over his head. The next moment, it hit the crossbar hard. !

There was a loud sigh over the Etihad Stadium, and then Manchester City fans began to applaud enthusiastically. In their view, although this attack did not score, it proved that their attack was effective!

Didn't score this time, won't we score next time?

However, such good wishes often do not come true.

In the next offense, Manchester City's offensive still did not improve, but Southampton was constantly looking for opportunities.

Although they don't have a high center forward in the frontcourt, Ronaldo and Klose rely on technology and running, which makes Manchester City's two central defenders quite embarrassed.

Kompany is okay, relying on his physical advantages and experience, he is still very comfortable marking Klose, but when Lescott faces Ronaldo, he looks very embarrassed.
