I brush achievements in football

Ji Ya's speculation is not wrong. Guardiola did choose safe rather than aggressive in the away game.

In the away game against Inter Milan, he chose to be aggressive. In fact, it was not inflated, but he felt that he could score goals in the away game and always make money. Take it easy, and then go back to your home field to kill the opponent, which in itself appears to be more stable.

Facing the menacing Southampton at this time, it seems more reasonable to make such a choice.

In fact, when everyone makes a choice, even if he chooses wrong every time, there must be a reason to persuade him to do so. Under such circumstances, it is difficult to say that the person who makes the wrong choice is just ignorant. It is very unreasonable to use what has happened to define the choices of people at that time.

Guardiola was also shaking hands with Kiya when the players from both sides came out.

"How is it, do you have confidence in this game?" Ji Ya asked Guardiola.

"Then are you confident?" Guardiola couldn't help laughing.

"Of course, I am the winner of five consecutive championships, how could I not have confidence?" Ji Ya laughed.

"After five consecutive championships, what is the probability of winning six consecutive championships?" Guardiola suddenly asked.

"Probability theory doesn't work like this. It's like flipping a coin. After five heads in a row, what is the probability of getting another head? It's 50.00%, and it will always be 50.00%, because the probability this time is half to half , What happened before will not affect it, and the same is true for winning the championship. No matter how many times I won the Champions Cup before, it has nothing to do with this time to win the Champions Cup." Ji Ya replied.

Guardiola nodded. He just wanted to test it to see if he could shake Ji Ya's confidence. Now it seems that he has done nothing.

But this kind of thing is just a casual thing, and it doesn't consume anything. If it is done, the effect will be good. He will not give up this kind of temptation.

After letting go of his hand, Ji Ya returned to his position, waiting for the start of the game.

"Players from both sides have already played! Southampton's starting lineup is four four two, goalkeeper Mendy, defender Cancelo, Rudiger, Maguire, Chilwell, midfielder De Bruyne, Rodri, Bale Wade, Grealish, forwards Du Yue, Vardy! Kiya sent his most used main lineup, which shows the importance he attaches to this game! And Manchester City also sent their usual [-], goalkeeper E Dessen, the two full-backs are Walker and Delphi, the central defenders are partnered by Otamendi and Laporte, the midfielder is Fernandinho, and the two attacking midfielders are Gundogan and David Silva, forward Mahrez, Aguero, Sterling, Sane, Jesus, Foden, Bernardo Silva on the bench! The lineup of both sides is really star-studded Bright!"

Amid the shouts of the commentator, players from both sides came on the field. De Bruyne, as the captain, shook hands with the opponent's captain Fernandinho. The fans in the stands began to clamor, waiting for the start of the game.

From a tactical point of view, the two sides are evenly matched, and in terms of midfield control, although Southampton is better, Manchester City is not bad at all, and among their three forwards, Mahrez is also a very good technique type players, so they will not be too inferior in possession confrontation.

The frontcourt attackers of both sides are mainly dexterous. Under such circumstances, this test for the tall central defenders of both sides will be quite strict.

Players from both sides began to scatter on the pitch, they were old rivals, and naturally they didn't play those fake games, so immediately after the kick-off, the two sides began to entangle in the midfield.

Seriously that kind of entanglement.

In the midfield, both sides appeared to be quite cautious. The offensive side kept controlling the ball, passing it back and forth, looking for opportunities, while the defensive side did not consume physical energy to frantically press down, but kept moving to fill positions and intercept. The opponent's offense at the same time makes it impossible for the opponent's offense to find a relatively large gap.

They all play ball control, so of course they know what to do so that they can be easily used by the opponent.

The overall formation operation during defense is very important. If you do not leave enough space for the opponent to attack, then the defense will appear very stable.

The essence of ball control is actually to compete for space. The offensive side needs to fight for enough offensive space, while the defensive side does not give the opponent such space. In the seemingly simple and boring ball control confrontation, the core game between the two sides has never been stopped.

Under such circumstances, Southampton, who took the lead in attacking, played very patiently, and Manchester City, who defended, was equally patient.

The caution of the two sides made the game quite boring. The ball was constantly running on the field, but it was basically unable to threaten the opponent's goal. Although Southampton's passing was always around the 30-meter attacking area, it showed their excellent performance. Coordination and footwork, however, cannot create any threats.

It wasn't until the 8th minute that Southampton created a more plausible threat attack.

Chilwell got the ball a little further back, and then he made a long pass to find De Bruyne in the midfield. De Bruyne received the ball and passed it directly. Shih got the ball in that position, he first faked a breakthrough, and then he lifted his foot and passed the ball into the penalty area with a curve.

The running of Du Yue and Vardy attracted the attention of some defensive players. De Bruyne who advanced forward received the ball, and then he did not stop the ball, but directly volleyed!

De Bruyne made such a choice, of course, because if he didn't shoot directly, the opponent's defensive player would post it immediately. However, Fernandinho's timely interference still had a certain effect. De Bruyne's strafing shot It almost flew out of the bottom line by rubbing against the crossbar, and Manchester City escaped.

"Good risk! After patiently passing back and forth, Southampton took the lead in creating a good chance! It's a pity that De Bruyne's shot was slightly high! What will Manchester City do next? Are they going to return the color in the away game?"

The narrator began to shout, these few minutes were really boring to watch, although the confrontation and confrontation between the two sides was actually very exciting and the level was very high, but the fans couldn't see this...

However, it is clear that neither Southampton players nor Manchester City players will give up their stability in order to please the fans.

After Ederson took the goal kick, it was Manchester City's turn to pass the attack patiently.

And Southampton also began to run back and forth in the backcourt, keeping the defense line stable and not giving Manchester City any room to attack.

If you don't give enough space, the opponent can only take the risk of attacking. In this way, your side will have more opportunities.

Both sides have the same game logic now, it depends on who can do better.
