Chapter 1093 Revenge Only Half

Zlatan Ibrahimovic's goal basically called the game over prematurely, although there were about five or six minutes left in stoppage time.

But Manchester City has already led by two goals. In the remaining minutes, it is absolutely impossible for Inter Milan to score two goals without conceding.

The key is not to lose the ball.

It is not that they have not failed to score two goals in a row, but they have not conceded a goal after scoring two goals in a row. Facing an opponent like Manchester City, they are not sure of this.

In the next game, Benitez used the last substitution in his hand and replaced Ibrahimovic with Godin.

Ibrahimovic has a goal, and he doesn't have to be too depressed when he is off the field.If he was replaced before he scored, then Ibrahimovic would definitely be very upset, and he would show this discomfort directly on his face.

now...

Ibrahimovic's expression was normal when he was off the field.

After replacing Godin, Manchester City has three players in the central defender position, and the striker is completely gone. Only Rong Guang is at the front, but Rong Guang is a midfielder, not a center forward.

Now Manchester City is also playing no front tactics.

But Inter Milan dare not underestimate Manchester City without a striker... Maybe Manchester City without a striker is more terrifying than them with a striker.

The next few minutes were a torment for the Inter Milan fans in the stands, and the game couldn't end early. They could only watch Inter Milan want to attack but didn't dare to attack, and Rong Guang continued to harass the defense.

It's like knowing that Inter Milan will die, but they can't do anything, they can't do anything, they can only watch Inter Milan's blood flow a little bit, and finally the bleeding is clean, and people are hardened.

When the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, it sounded like nature to them!
For the first time, they hoped that the game would end early when they were behind the score...

Otherwise they might concede more balls.

"The game is over! Manchester City defeated Inter Milan 3:1 away! They have completed their revenge for last season!"

"In fact, it cannot be said that Inter Milan played well. They played well in most of the game, and there was no problem tactically. On the contrary, Manchester City's performance was not particularly convincing. But there is no way, who makes Manchester City proud? It is not an advantaged situation. As long as there is honor, it can be transformed into victory for you in the end..."

"It was Rong who used a personal performance to equalize the score for the team when Manchester City was unable to start the game. It was Rong who took the lead for the team when the team was in a stalemate. It was Rong who assisted Zlatan Ibrahimovic at the last moment to seal the victory! The best player in this game is Rong! He completely dominated the game!"

At the end of the game, commentators from all over the world gave their praises to Rong Guang.

There are definitely two outcomes for Manchester City to have glory or not to have glory in this game, there is no suspense.

With Glory, they will be able to take revenge successfully. Without Glory, even with Zlatan Ibrahimovic, they may still be hanged and beaten.

Therefore, the TV broadcast after the game followed Rong Guang closely, and he was given the most close-up shots, which also meant that he was the best player in the game.

Rong Guang was indeed the best player in the game. When he was interviewed in the mixed zone after the game, a reporter asked him: "We defeated Inter Milan in the away game. Congratulations on your revenge. Rong Guang..."

But Rong Guang shook his head: "No, there is still one more game."

If his words were heard by the Inter Milan fans, they would probably die.

Rong Guang is obviously not satisfied with beating Inter Milan away...he is not satisfied with only beating Inter Milan once.

Inter Milan fans will definitely be wronged at this time-damn!We only beat you 3:1 at home last season. Didn't we lose to you at your home court?Now you also win 3:1 at our home court, even if we are even, why there is another game? !

Rongguang's idea is that even if they win the away game, if they return home and allow Inter Milan to win back, it will be regarded as a failure in revenge.

Since you want revenge, you have to be thorough.

So you have to win away games, and you have to win even more at home!

After the game, Inter Milan fans vented their dissatisfaction with losing the game to coach Leonardo.

They didn't like the head coach Leonardo very much. After all, he used to be a famous player in AC Milan. He played for AC Milan for many years and worked for the AC Milan club for many years, and finally became the head coach of AC Milan.

Such a person with AC Milan's brand all over his body, even if he becomes the head coach of Inter Milan now, it is impossible to gain the trust of Inter Milan fans.It's okay if there's nothing wrong, but once something happens, everyone will definitely vent their anger on Leonardo.

After the game, some fans claimed that if Mourinho was there, even if the glory was in good condition, Inter Milan could still win Manchester City at their home court!
They have such an almost superstitious trust in Mourinho.

As for any successor of Mourinho, it is necessary to scan it first with scrutiny. It is absolutely inevitable to compare it with Mourinho.

It's not just the fans who do it, the media does it too.

Leonard has been coaching for such a long time, and the media has done several topics such as "comparison of Mourinho's coaching performance in the same period".

With such a situation, it is somewhat understandable why Leonardo held back his energy and wanted to beat Manchester City in this game, making everyone forget Mourinho.

It's just a pity...he didn't succeed.

In other words, he picked the wrong opponent.

After the Champions League match, the Manchester City team returned to Manchester. Their opponent in the league is Arsenal.

Another rival.

Although in the first two seasons, Manchester City always won more than lost against Arsenal, but Benitez did not dare to take it lightly.

The Premier League is the most competitive football league in the world. Not to mention Arsenal, but in the last round, newly promoted players like Blackpool have caused huge troubles for Manchester City. If it weren't for the goals of Rong Guang and Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Manchester City would have lost to the opponent away.

Even Blackpool can threaten Manchester City, let alone Arsenal.

Although this game has just finished playing Inter Milan, Benitez does not plan to rotate in this game. He completely retained the starting lineup in the middle of the week to play Arsenal.

All the main players are on the scene.

In order to ensure that Arsenal won at home.

In the past eight rounds of the league, Manchester City scored [-] points with their unbeaten record of five wins and two draws. They are now at the top of the standings, overtaking Chelsea by one point, because Chelsea were tied away by Aston Villa in the last round of the league.

But the number one in the league is not stable. If Manchester City is tied or defeated by Arsenal at home in this game, the first place in the league that has just arrived and has not been warmed up will be lost.

Chelsea's game is the second of this round of the league, while the match between Manchester City and Arsenal is the last game of the league.They were done before Manchester City played, and sure enough, Chelsea beat Wolves 2-0 at home.

Play one more game and temporarily return to the first place in the league.

If Manchester City is tied, with 21 points, they will be in second place with a one-point disadvantage.

After eight league rounds, Arsenal ranked third with [-] points. They actually needed a victory.

Because they have [-] points with Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur.

It is very easy to go from third to fifth in the league.

Against Arsenal, Manchester City played what they are best at - defensive counterattack.Arsenal played the offensive football they are best at, relying on control and quick pass and cut cooperation between small teams to tear apart Manchester City's defense.

The two sides played inextricably, and everyone played the Champions League in the middle of the week, so in terms of physical fitness, no one is much better than the other.

As a result, Manchester City had a bad start to the game. In just 5 minutes, central defender Kompany was sent off with a red card for making a tackle on Nasri in the penalty area, and also gave Arsenal a penalty.

"Penalties! Arsenal had a great start! And Manchester City will have one less man to fight for the remaining 85 minutes of the game!"

Nasri came up to take the penalty with a football in his arms, and the Manchester City fans in the stands booed him loudly, hoping to interfere with him.

But to no avail, Nasri calmly fired the penalty into the goal guarded by Joe Hart.

"The goal is scored! Arsenal lead Manchester City 1-0 away!!"

After the goal, Nasri and the Arsenal players hugged excitedly and celebrated the goal.

They are full of confidence in the next game.

The score is leading, and the number is also one more than Manchester City.

In Arsenal's style, as long as the football is firmly under their own feet, isn't that leading Manchester City by the nose?
Wenger on the sidelines was also very excited.

In the past two seasons, I have played Manchester City so many times, and this time I finally have good luck!

The most important thing next is not to worry, Arsenal can't expect to score another goal in a short time after scoring one goal.

This kind of thinking may be normal in other teams, but it doesn't work here in Manchester City.

Because they have a glory that is almost unaffected by conceded goals or not.

When you attack aggressively and want to quickly expand your lead, Rongguang is always aiming at the gaps in your defense. As long as you are a little careless, he may seize the opportunity to score.

Having played against Rongguang so many times, Wenger already knows Rongguang's style very well. He will always stab you in the heart when you let your guard down.

For such a person, it must not be taken lightly.

So he quickly gave instructions, asking the players not to rush to attack aggressively after taking the lead, but to still play according to the previous rhythm, control the football at their feet, use passing and running positions to mobilize Manchester City's defense, advance slowly, and look for opportunities.

If there is no good opportunity, don't send a through ball blindly, it is easy to be intercepted, and then let Manchester City play a defensive counterattack.
