Chapter 1260 Air Relay
Kaka noticed Neymar's eyes looking at Rongguang, he was not unfamiliar with that kind of eyes, because when Rongguang looked at him, his eyes were similar to Neymar's.

Neymar is challenging Glory.

Kaka has already been selected for the Brazilian national team, and he has also had contact with Neymar in the Brazilian national team.

Neymar is indeed a rare talent in Brazilian football nowadays. His flexible feet will remind him of Ronaldinho.

But to be honest, Kaka doesn't think Neymar can beat Rongguang in his heart.

This has nothing to do with playing style. Neymar's playing style is more fancy, and Rongguang is more practical.But Kaka doesn't think that Neymar can't beat Rongguang because of being fancy. He just thinks that there is a huge gap between Neymar and Rongguang. This gap is not their current strength, but their potential.

In terms of potential and talent alone, Neymar is not a glorious opponent at all.

Maybe it's because Brazilian football has been quiet for too long, so everyone has extraordinary maintenance and support for Neymar, which makes Neymar feel that he is really good.

Ke Kaka doesn't see it that way.

He believes that with Neymar's current strength, in the Brazilian national team he was in in 2002, he was at best a substitute...

Now the Brazilian media's promotion of Neymar makes Neymar look like a world-class superstar, but it's not because of how good Neymar is, but just because the current level of Brazilian football is indeed declining...

Can Alves match Cafu?

Can Marcelo match Roberto Carlos?

Are Melo and Ramirez comparable to Emerson?

Is David Luiz on par with Lucio?

Lucas Sutton, Fabiano, Fred, Hulk... Are these people comparable to Ronaldo?

Are Robinho and Diego comparable to Ronaldinho?
The Kaka formation doesn't think they're comparable.

But today's glory is completely capable of playing the absolute main force in that Brazilian national team.

The gap between Neymar and Rongguang is the gap between the marginal substitute and the absolute main force of the five-star Basili in 2002.

Neymar will definitely be very active and hardworking in this game, but Kaka is really hard to be optimistic about him.

However, Kaka did not point this out to Neymar, because even if he said it himself, Neymar would probably not believe it. It would be better not to say anything and let him try it himself before he would be convinced.

For some things, doing it once by yourself is more effective than ten thousand words of persuasion from others.

※※※

Neymar didn't know if Rongguang felt the challenge he was posing. Anyway, he kept staring at Rongguang, but Rongguang didn't look at him.

And soon, but when Manchester City launched an attack, the football was passed to Rong Guang's feet.

After receiving the ball, Rong Guang took the football forward.

Facing the Santos defender Dulval who came up to defend him, Rong Guang made an emergency stop, and at the same time knocked the football from behind him, directly cutting inside in disguise!
This extraordinary move is not too unexpected. Duerval often encounters similar extraordinary moves in the Brazilian league, but he knows that it does not mean that he can stop it.

Especially when Glory is used.

Stopped suddenly, knocked the ball and changed direction, and then started again, Rongguang's explosive power was vividly reflected.

Dulval could only watch Rong Guang get rid of him. When he turned around, Rong Guang had already cut to the middle, swung his left foot, and shot the goal vigorously!
The football rushed past Santos central defender Leo. Goalkeeper Raphael didn't dare to hug the ball directly, even though the angle was not very biased.He chose to attack with both fists and hit the ball directly!
Bang.

The football didn't fly out of the bottom line or the sideline, but went straight to the midfield!
It's not often that the goalkeeper hits the ball straight back into midfield.This is not because the goalkeeper Rafael's hitting power is strong, but mainly because Rongguang's shooting power is strong, so when they collide with Rafael, the reaction force will be greater...

In the end, let the football fly directly to the middle circle.

"Oh! Rong! What a powerful shot!"

Alan Hansen said next to him: "Look! Compared with Neymar's ball just now, Rong's dribble is not as fancy as Neymar's dribble, but it is more practical and effective, and it poses a greater threat to the goal! So Neymar still has a long way to go!"

In words, Alan Hansen expressed disdain for Neymar.

In his opinion, the Brazilian media are all boasting, how can Neymar be as good as they say?
But Alan Hansen has also forgotten that when it comes to bragging and making stars, the English media is not far behind...

Although Rongguang's long-range shot failed to score, it opened the curtain for Manchester City to besiege Santos.

Originally, Benitez arranged for Manchester City to play a defensive counterattack first to test it out. If Santos is not strong, then press on the offense.

But only 5 minutes into the game, Manchester City found that they could suppress Santos, so they stopped playing any defensive counterattacks and started punching Santos.

Anyway, Rongguang and Kaka will not have any psychological barriers when facing Santos, and they will not show mercy just because the opponent is a Brazilian team.When they played in Sao Paulo, they were against Santos.

After Rongguang's long-range shot was saved by Rafael, Kaka also cut into the left side of the penalty area and kicked his right foot. The football drew a line, bypassed goalkeeper Rafael's ten fingers, and then went slightly wide of the goal and flew out of the baseline.

There was a burst of cheers and sighs from the female fans in the stands.

Kaka is as popular in Japan as Beckham was in Japan back then.

※※※

This siege did not last long. In No. 16 minutes, Sneijder broke through the center circle. When facing the Santos player's interception, he directly passed the football, passed the defender over the top, and fell to the front.

As a center, Ibrahimovic just dropped back to respond, and his position was relatively low, but Sneijder did not pass the ball to Ibrahimovic, but gave it to Kaka who inserted from the back.Faced with Sneijder's over-the-top pass, Kaka didn't stop and turn around to stop the ball when he ran forward, but directly stopped the football with his heel in the air, made a straight forward, and then raised his foot directly without waiting for the football to land, and used the inside of his foot to push the football forward.

Another volley pass.The football went over the Santos defense and fell behind the Santos defenders.

Although Leon jumped up and struggled for the top, he still failed to reach the football.

The football fell from behind him, at this moment, Rong Guang overtook him from behind!
As he ran forward, he turned his head to look at the flying football, and then raised his right leg.

It wasn't stopping the ball, nor was it a vigorous volley, Rong Guang's right foot turned the football flying over to the other end!
The football flew again and went straight past the Santos goalkeeper Rafael who blocked his shot angle!
Although Raphael jumped up while rushing forward, he wanted to catch the football, but because he took off hastily, he didn't jump high, and his arms swung upwards a little slowly.

His hands arrived after the football flew over his head, already to no avail.

The football passed him, fell further, and landed in the empty goal behind him!

"Rong——!!! Beautiful! Beautiful! Manchester City scored a beautiful alley-oop goal! Sneijder picked a pass to Kaka, Kaka stopped the ball in the air and then directly picked a pass, and finally Rong Ling shot! The football didn't even hit the ground! And the Santos players didn't even touch the ball!"

John Mortensen shouted excitedly.

Let alone this goal in the Club World Cup, even if it is put in the Champions League, it will be a wonderful goal that can enter the top ten goals of the season!

Rongguang's wonderful goal ignited the atmosphere of the Yokohama International Complex. Fans jumped from the stands to cheer for Rongguang's goal.

Amidst their cheers, Manchester City players flocked to Rong Guang and Kaka respectively, hugging and celebrating the goal with them.

The Santos players looked a little frustrated.

And not just because they dropped the ball.

What is more important is what is reflected in this conceded goal-they were scored without even touching the ball.Manchester City's goal looked like a small game played in normal training.

This ball fully illustrates the gap between the two teams.

South American champion Santos, even with a "new Pele" like Neymar, at present, it is difficult to compete with Manchester City.

Neymar stared blankly at the Manchester City players celebrating the goal on the court, and then he turned his attention to the big screen on the scene, which was playing the replay of Manchester City's goal just now, with Rongguang as the main perspective, and the camera lens closely followed Rongguang.

So everyone can see how Rongguang moved in this goal.

He wandered outside the box first, and when Zlatan Ibrahimovic dropped back, he didn't go into the box to fill the space. There was an open space behind Santos' defense, and there was no Manchester City player.

Therefore, Santos' defense line also presses forward in an appropriate amount. This is a very correct tactical choice, and it can also cause offsides or something.

But Rong Guang still didn't rush in ahead of time, but continued to walk outside, while turning his head to observe the football situation.

When Kaka stopped the football, Rong Guang in the camera suddenly started from an almost static walking state and went straight behind Santos' defense line!

At the same time, Kaka volleyed the ball directly, and the football went over the defense line.If Kaka waits for the football to land and adjust before passing, Rongguang will definitely be offside.

But it was Kaka's direct volley pass that made Rong Guang's forward move look just right!
Although the relationship between the two is not very good, their tacit understanding on the court is very deep.This also makes journalists and experts feel very strange.

Generally speaking, it is impossible for players who have a bad relationship in private to have this level of tacit understanding.

They can't understand that the relationship between the two is not good, but as long as the two have the same goal, that doesn't prevent them from fighting hand in hand in the game.The tacit understanding between Rongguang and Kaka is cultivated in the game, not in life.

Perhaps it is precisely because the two of them dislike each other and regard each other as opponents, so they understand each other better and know how to cooperate with each other...

"This ball is really impressive..." Brazil's commentator also said. "It reminds us of the scene when Rong and Kaka played in Sao Paulo... In the later period of their performance in Sao Paulo, there was often such a mutual pass between the two. Nine years later, the two reunited in Manchester City, and they can still play this kind of cooperation. It's really nostalgic..."
