Chapter 239 Return to Calderon (2100)

Returning to the top of the list, I feel a lot better.

With a happy mood, the Premier League once again entered the two-week offseason.

Then there was another two-week international match day. As Manchester City reached the top of the league last season, the team has received more and more attention, and the number of international players in the team has also increased.

Even Aguero has received an invitation to the national team.

Half a month's national team match day.

After returning to the club, most of the international players looked a little tired, and they might be able to recover physically, but mental fatigue cannot be solved by a day or two of good sleep.

So in the away game against Newcastle United in the eighth round, Duncan sent a lineup with a mixture of rotation players and main players.

Although at the beginning of the season, Newcastle United felt a new look, and the golden boy Owen also had a second spring in Newcastle, scoring goals again and again.In the first game of the season, they drew with the mighty Manchester United. In the second game, they beat Bolton with one goal. When the fans began to look forward to the championship, the team suddenly broke out the conflict between the head coach Kevin Keegan and the management.

The originally good situation began to be affected.

In this game, facing the unmotivated Newcastle United, Duncan's team defeated them 3:1 away, consolidating their leading position in the standings.

The game went smoothly. First, Fellaini opened the scoring with a header, and then Samaras headed to Aguero, who started the game. The Argentine took a shot.

In the end, Aguero reciprocated, and after a series of dazzling performances in the penalty area, the ball was passed to the unmarked Samaras, who pushed the goal.

The pair of front line teammates, who the news reported were not in harmony because of the battle for the main force, not only completed passes to each other, but also inadvertently sprinkled a wave of dog food.

After the game, Messi called the report.

After this game, Manchester City will fly to Madrid to challenge a Madrid team. This team has a long history. Many Spanish internationals have played for this team.

That's right, what I'm saying is...

Atlético de Madrid: Yes, it is next!

This game is quite important, because Atletico Madrid and Manchester City both won two consecutive victories in the previous group stage.Therefore, the winner of this game will have an absolute advantage in the subsequent group stage.

The sooner you occupy favorable terrain, the easier it will be to arrange the schedule in future games.

Of course, for Aguero, this game must be full of emotions.Three months ago, the fans sent him away as if they were sending off a wanderer, but when they came to the Calderon Stadium again three months later, they were already opponents.

Aguero did not start this game, and Manchester City sent a striker combination of Samaras and Shevchenko.

When they walked out of the player tunnel, there was a sudden burst of cheers from the stands, and the shouts of "kun" and "kun" were endless.

Duncan saw that it was a group of fans holding a portrait of Aguero.

Duncan smiled and patted Aguero on the shoulder wearing a yellow vest: "Go."

Fans are the cutest people, but don't let them down.

The director on the scene hurriedly directed a camera on the sidelines and asked him to follow Aguero.

Atletico Madrid fans don't have so much rich and powerful psychology, or plots of loyal ministers.

In their hearts, although Aguero only played for Calderon for two seasons, they have witnessed Aguero's growth, and Aguero ranked third in the scorer list last season and brought Atletico Madrid into the UEFA Champions League. war.

So the fans are full of gratitude to Aguero, and the banner on the stands flutters in the wind, "Kun, welcome home!"

Aguero, who returned to the bench, lowered his head, his eyes were a little wet.

Duncan handed him a cloth: "Is the sand in your eyes, wipe it off."

Aguero took it and wiped his eyes. The kid was quite honest: "The fans are so touched! Boss, I have a request."

"You said."

"Can I play in the second half of the game, just a few minutes." Aguero said.

"I'll give you three ten minutes." Duncan said.

"Thank you." Aguero wiped his eyes again: "By the way, boss, where is this cloth from? Why does it have a strange smell?"

"Oh, the staff used it to wipe the stool just now.".
"..."

Atletico Madrid's head coach is now Javier Aguirre. Although Atletico Madrid has a certain strength, the pressure on them from the two-line battle is still great.Atletico Madrid's performance in the league this season is not good, which makes Aguirre's coaching ability questioned.

A small team's two-line battle is a big test for the thickness of the bench.There is no shortage of teams that have been dragged down by the cup and thus relegated.

Therefore, Aguirre's formation is very problematic. On the one hand, he sent the main defensive players and wanted to defend. On the other hand, he rotated the offensive players and only sent substitute offensive players, trying to steal one or two.

This kind of double-headed and contradictory tactics made Atletico Madrid's players feel a little lacking in confidence before they came on the field.

In terms of ability, they themselves have a gap with Manchester City. With substitute offensive players, Atletico Madrid was beaten again and again.

Manchester City scored three goals in the first half, Shevchenko scored twice, Yaya Toure stepped in and scored a long-range shot.The opponent's substitute offensive player did not suppress Yaya Toure enough, and their midfielder basically lost, allowing Yaya Toure to calmly press.

Seeing that the team he played for last season was defeated, Aguero also felt a little regretful.

It would be great if Atletico Madrid didn't sell players.

In the 60 minutes of the second half, Aguero replaced Samaras.

When Samaras left the field, he gently hugged Aguero and expressed his comfort.He knew that at this moment in Aguero's heart, there must be a lot of emotion.

Aguero enters the field and Calderon's fans applaud him.

In the 83rd minute, Aguero withdrew from the penalty area, then turned around and passed the ball straight. Pedro countered offside and plugged in, easily hitting the goal.

4: 0!

Manchester City have a four-goal advantage away from home.

This score was also maintained until the end. In the end, Manchester City beat Atletico Madrid 4:0, leading the Champions League group with 9 points, and Atletico Madrid ranked second with 6 points.

The other two teams, Marseille and PSV Eindhoven, tied after two straight defeats, giving Manchester City an 8-point lead.

The next game is at the City Stadium. As long as Manchester City draws with Atletico Madrid, they will be able to secure a qualifying spot.

Back in the league, Manchester City won. With Shevchenko's goal, the team beat Stoke 1-0 and then beat Middlesbrough 2-1 away.

In this game, Middlesbrough was very tenacious. They used rough fouls to stifle Manchester City's art. David Silva became the hardest hit, and he always fell to the ground frequently on the court.

Duncan stood up and complained to the fourth official that the action of the other party was too brutal!

David Silva, although not visible on the surface, was very sullen in his heart.But he knows that responding with a foul will only fall into the opponent's trap. If he wants to keep the opponent from being proud, he must beat the opponent from the field.

Fouled again, at the front of the penalty area, this time, Silva stood in front of the football.

He's going to take a free kick.

This time, Silva did not choose the curve ball, but directly volleyed vigorously. This shot with hatred and anger caught the opponent's goalkeeper off guard, did not make any reaction, and watched the football crash into the net.

Then Shevchenko and Samaras opened the gap for Silva, and Silva won a penalty through his technique in the penalty area.

He took the penalty himself and the ball went straight into the top right corner.

After falling behind, Middlesbrough fought back vigorously, but were smashed one by one by the defense led by Thiago Silva and Joel Luka.

It was only with a corner kick in the final stage that they managed to pull back a goal.

In the end, Manchester City won 2:1!
