Hexagonal monster crushing European football

"Manchester City's starting lineup... is completely different from last season." Zhan Lu introduced the starting lineup of both sides to all fans.

"The goalkeeper position is England goalkeeper Joe Hart. In the defense, centre-back Kompany partners with new aid Otamendi. On the left and right are Kolarov and Segna. The double midfielder is Fernandini. Austria, and Gundogan, who transferred from Dortmund this summer.

The three frontcourt players, except for David Silva, are all newcomers to Manchester City this summer.

Golden Boy Award winner, Sterling, and Bundesliga mvp De Bruyne!

At the front is Zhao Yi, the No. 19 youngster from China who has attracted our most attention!

Aguero can only sit on the bench, which shows Guardiola's trust in Zhao Yi!

Because Zhao Yi's transfer fee was exactly [-] million euros, some fans gave him new nicknames, Zhao Baling, Zhao Yi. "

Zhao Yi stood on the court and looked up at the West Bromwich Albion fans in the stands.

There is even a banner about him.

It's a new nickname given to him by England fans. Translated into Chinese, it probably means "Zhao Fei".

The fan culture in England is really different.

As a newcomer, he will also receive attention and care from the fans of the visiting team.

Zhao Yi took a deep breath and finally stepped on the turf of the top league stadium.

David Silva saw Zhao Yi's look and knew that he was a little nervous, so he patted him on the shoulder gently.

"Relax and bring out the best in training!"

In the previous training matches, Zhao Yi and David Silva had a very good cooperation.

De Bruyne's mood has also stabilized, and he has had several wonderful collaborations with Zhao Yi.

It's just that De Bruyne has not completely opened his heart, and Guardiola sees this.

This kind of thing needs to be done slowly and cannot be rushed.

Zhao Yi nodded slightly to David Silva, and their eyes met.

drop! !

As the game whistle sounded, the game between the two sides officially began.

West Bromwich Albion picked the edge and Manchester City kicked off.

Sterling kicked the ball to Gundogan.

Then move forward.

Gundogan did not hold the ball to organize the offense.

Instead, the short pass went to David Silva in the middle.

David Silva half-turned to receive the ball.

When the ball reached his feet, he had already completed his turn.

West Bromwich Albion's Fletcher was just about to step forward to intercept when David Silva made a long pass over the top and directly passed all the defense lines.

The West Bromwich Albion players were stunned for a moment.

They did not expect that Manchester City, playing away from home, would use this tactic from the beginning.

The head coach had a meeting before the game. Guardiola's team kept making short passes and looking for opportunities.

They habitually use hypnosis to penetrate little by little.

Why do you play such a long pass right from the start?

This kind of pass can easily lose the ball, because the forward will be trapped in the defenders. Even if he gets the ball, it will be difficult to get the ball without a teammate to respond.

This style of play is what Guardiola dislikes the most.

He needs all the players to be in position and the whole team to run like a machine.

Instead of relying on probability, rely on luck-based counterattacks.

So when they came to their senses, Zhao Yi had already used his starting speed to quickly get rid of the central defender.

Removed the ball with one kick!

Dawson (note, the West Bromwich Albion central defender is also called Dawson, it is normal for foreigners with the same surname, not Zhao Yi's former teammate) reacted quickly and followed immediately!

When he wanted to find an angle to tackle, Zhao Yi suddenly slowed down by half a beat and directly used his body to resist Dawson at the penalty area line.

Subsequently, he did not continue to dribble the ball forward.

Instead, just lift your right foot!

A perfect one-on-one shot without entering the penalty area.

Instead, he swung it directly on the penalty area line!

He was afraid that if he kept carrying the ball for a while, Dawson would catch up and destroy it.

After a blast, goalkeeper Messier dived to the left.

The direction is right, but the height is wrong.

The football rushed directly to the upper corner of the goal and smashed into the net!

"The ball went in!!! Ten seconds into the game, Manchester City's first attack!

David Silva makes a long pass!

After Zhao Yi unloaded the ball exquisitely, he shot directly from the line of the penalty area! !

Single-handedly without the ball!

Zhao Yi's first goal in the Premier League!

Came a little earlier than expected!

Many people say that 17-year-old Zhao Yi is not ready to enter the Premier League.

Seeing his performance, I don't know if he is ready, but defenders in the Premier League are really not ready! ! "

Zhan Lu was roaring and the fans were in a daze.

What the hell is this?

This Premier League?

"One hundred million euros, is this the strength of King Xia Chuangbiao??"

"What the hell?? Is this easier than scoring goals in English League One??"
