Chapter 1230 Community Shield Cup Three Consecutive Championships

After Kaka scored, the game restarted, and the commentators were still talking about his goal.

There was so much to say about that goal.

The most noticeable thing is Kaka's explosive power.

The main reason for Kaka's poor performance in Real Madrid is that he lost the explosive power he was famous for before.In the past, Kaka had a strong body and outstanding explosive power. When being pressed by an opponent close to the body, he could also rely on his explosive power to instantly throw off the defender and then break through with the ball.

His solo goal against the Celtics in the 2007 UEFA Champions League is a good example-at that time, a Celtic player hit him from behind, but Kaka resisted the impact with his body, and then took the football away with explosive force, but the Celtic player who hit him fell to the ground instead, completely losing the opportunity to defend Kaka.

And once Kaka takes the ball, it will be difficult for the defensive players to catch up. He is often the best.

Such scenes are not uncommon in Kaka's peak state.

After going to Real Madrid, such Kaka disappeared.

Instead, there is a Kaka who will be caught up and cut off when he dribbles the ball on the court, and he can't even get through.

At first everyone thought it was because they didn't adapt to Real Madrid's tactics, but it was later discovered that Kaka had a physical problem.

It's a sad reality.

Later, it was rumored that Kaka's injury was serious and chronic, and he would never be able to return to the way he was in AC Milan.

This is even more heartbreaking...

Unexpectedly, in the first official game of Kaka in Manchester City, everyone actually saw the instant start of the game!Just one step, just one step and Kaka threw away the Stoke City players who defended him!
After that, Kaka's speed did not decay rapidly, but remained at a very high level.

He easily passed the Stoke City centre-back who was intercepting him in the face, broke into the penalty area, and then swung his foot to shoot.

Every link is perfect, so that people can't fault it.

And this kind of goal is the way Kaka was best at before!
Kaka once said that he came to Manchester City to find his best self.

Whether he has found his best self is still uncertain, but at least the best goal he can score, he has scored a...

What does this mean?

Many people thought of Real Madrid.

Letting Kaka go so easily, it is obvious that they have determined that Kaka is no longer able to provide Real Madrid with any help.

They firmly believe that Kaka's career will only get worse and worse, and it is absolutely impossible to find the best self.

But now, after seeing Kaka's goal, do they have any regrets?

At the beginning they let Sneijder go, and as a result, Sneijder helped Manchester City eliminate Real Madrid in the group stage in Manchester City's first season, and even helped Manchester City win the Champions League last season.I don't know if Real Madrid regretted it so much that their intestines were green at that time.

Will the past of Sneijder repeat itself in Kaka?

※※※

In the media seats, the reporters were no less shocked than the commentators.

Because these people vowed at the beginning that Kaka would not have good fruit if he went to Manchester City. This transfer is a model of "lose-lose" for Kaka himself and the Manchester City club.

They don't think that Kaka can return to its previous state, and it's even impossible in general.

So Kaka's ball slapped them firmly in the face.

In the previous 10 minutes, because Kaka's performance was average, they thought it confirmed their point of view.

So when seeing Kaka activated, many people's jaws were almost dislocated in shock—is this really Kaka running out?
※※※

The game continued, and after scoring a goal, Kaka seemed to have broken the seal, and repeatedly made wonderful performances.

He threw off the defender with an excellent start, and then distributed the football to others, which also included glory.

His activeness has greatly increased Manchester City's threat in the frontcourt.

The Stoke City players had to send more defenders to guard him exclusively.

In this way, the defense against other Manchester City players will naturally drop.

So before the end of the first half, Sneijder took advantage of Kaka being followed closely by the two defensive players of the opponent, turned around and passed the football to the completely opposite direction.

Rong Guang nimbly inserted into space, and after receiving the pass from Sneijder, he suddenly changed direction and entered the penalty area. Facing the goalkeeper who was halfway through the attack, he chose to shoot with his right foot.

3: 0!

Before the first half was over, Manchester City led Stoke City by three goals!
Attacking the trident in the frontcourt, one person scored one goal!

Although there are still 45 minutes left in the game, everyone knows that the game has completely lost its suspense...

※※※

Benitez started to make substitutions in the second half.

He used up all six substitutions - not three for the Community Shield, but six.So the Community Shield is actually a warm-up match.

Benitez replaced Kaka with Milner.

He is very satisfied with Kaka's performance, which can be seen from the fact that he took the initiative to shake hands and hug Kaka after Kaka left the field.

But for Kaka, Benitez did not dare to use it boldly.In Benitez's view, Kaka has just recovered from an injury.

He was afraid that Kaka would be injured again by exerting too much force.So let Kakado rest.

At the very least, Kaka doesn't need to play the entire game in such an unimportant game.

Anyway, he mainly used this game to experiment with tactics, and he was very satisfied with the effect, which means he had achieved his goal.

When Kaka left the field, he received a standing ovation from the Manchester City fans at the scene. He was also very happy to wave to the Manchester City fans in the stands from the sidelines.

After walking off the court, he hugged Benitez and shook hands with other coaches, team doctors and teammates one by one, with a happy smile on his face all the time.

He couldn't be more clear about the meaning of this game.If he does not perform well in this game, then his prospects for the new season will be cast a shadow.

The excellent performance in the first game gave him more confidence, and also made Benitez more confident.In this way, in the next game, Benitez dared to use himself.

Of course, what makes Kaka the happiest is that in the game, he started to enjoy football again.He was delighted by the sprints and runs and the strong support under his feet when he controlled the ball.This kind of feeling was not there when Real Madrid played. After the old fairy adjusted his body, every game was no longer torture for him, but enjoyed.

He now firmly believes that it is right for him to come to Manchester City. He will definitely be able to rediscover the best of himself in Manchester City and return to the Brazilian national team to catch up with the 2014 World Cup held at home.

At that time, he will wear the jersey of the Brazilian national team and compete with Rong Guang, who is wearing the jersey of the Chinese team, in the World Cup!

Although Manchester City replaced many main players in the second half, the substitute players who played were also of extraordinary strength, so in the second half, Manchester City scored two more goals.

In the end, they defeated Stoke City with a score of 5:0 and won the Community Shield without any suspense.

Manchester City has also won the Community Shield for three consecutive years.

Even if this is not a champion with too much gold content, it cannot stand up to the large number.

Being able to get it every year still shows the strength of Manchester City.

Of course, what is more important than winning the championship is that in this game, Benitez tested the team's new staffing.

It seems that Sneijder has performed well after retreating, and Kaka also has a bit of style in the midfielder position.

This gave Benitez confidence.

Rong Guang said that he wants to defend the Champions League in the new season. With Kaka joining, this goal no longer seems so far away.

In the post-match press conference, the fact that Manchester City won the Community Shield for three consecutive seasons was not the focus of media attention. Almost all the questions they asked were related to Kaka.

Facing the reporters' questions, Benitez smiled slightly: "We are not surprised that Kaka has such a performance, because such a sprint is very simple for Kaka in daily training. We are sure that his body has recovered, which is good news."

Seeing that Benitez said so, the reporters looked at each other, even if they didn't believe it, they couldn't refute it at this time.

Benitez may be trying to save face, but he may also be telling the truth.

Now the reporters can't produce any evidence to prove their speculation.

However, a reporter quickly thought of a new question: "Then when Kaka recovers, who will be the core of the team, he or Rong?"

This question is very poisonous.

Everyone knows that Kaka and Rongguang have a bad relationship.

Since there is a competitive relationship between Ibrahimovic and Rongguang, why is there no competition between Kaka and Rongguang?

In the past, they felt that Kaka was not in good condition and was not qualified to compete with Rongguang.

But now that Kaka is in good health and has recovered, why can't he compete with Rong Guang?

They want to know what attitude Benitez holds on this matter.

Benitez is also experienced. Faced with such a difficult question, he said: "Kaka's excellent state is a blessing for the team, and it is also lucky for Manchester City to have two core players in excellent state. I don't think this will become my trouble, it will only become the opponent's trouble."

He didn't directly say who will be the core, he just said that with two people, the strength of the team has been strengthened.

This is nonsense, which is equivalent to not answering the question, but it is impossible for the reporters to keep asking.

They had no choice but to accept Benitez's answer, and at the same time, they thought in their hearts that they had to wait for a while to see if Kaka's outstanding performance was an accidental phenomenon in a game.

When he was in Real Madrid, Kaka did not play good games, but such games were too few in his two seasons in Real Madrid, and they were not consistent and lasting.

What if Kaka is the same in Manchester City?
