Chapter 236 Are We Deadly Enemies?
"Anderson, do you think we and Manchester United are sworn enemies?"

Guardiola suddenly said something to assistant coach Anderson when the players lined up to shake hands.

Anderson was obviously stunned for a moment, but Guardiola's mind has been jumping a lot recently, and he is also gradually adapting.

"Sure, we are the same city team as Manchester United, and we are Derby opponents!"

"But you said the Double Red Club or the Manchester Derby, which one will be more intense, and which one will the fans value more?"

"Forehead--"

"Your silence shows that, indeed, the Double Red Club is a derby with older qualifications. If England wants to have a national derby, it must be the Double Red Club, not the Manchester Derby. Although we are nearly ten It has risen very quickly in [-], but its background is still incomparable with Liverpool, so from a traditional point of view, Manchester United still regards Liverpool as their biggest mortal enemy, and it is funny to say that one club now has two mortal enemies."

"Since we grabbed the league championship from them in 12, we and them have returned to the status of sworn enemies."

"The man opposite, Jose, when he was in Real Madrid, the national derby between Real Madrid and Barcelona was actually very intense, but at most it was intense, and there would not be so many fighting scenes. You can search for violent fouls on the pitch on YouTube. Among them, most of the fouls in the national derby were committed during the period between me and Mourinho. It was rare before. At that time, Mourinho’s Real Madrid was slightly weaker than my Barcelona, ​​so he had to find a way to beat Barcelona.”

"So, Pep, you mean, this one?"

"Yes, Mourinho has been deeply involved in the sacking incident recently, but think about it, if the Manchester Derby wins, he can suspend the sacking incident, but their overall strength is not as good as us, and they are not as good as Liverpool. That restrained us, so how can we win you?"

Guardiola, like a teacher, coaxed Anderson to say that sentence.

"So it's a foul?"

"Correct!"

Guardiola replied decisively.

Then he looked at the field.

"In this Manchester Derby, both sides have deployed the strongest lineup that can be deployed. For Manchester City, the goalkeeper is Ederson, and the defense line from left to right is Mendy, Laporte, Stones, Walker , Fernandinho, David Silva and De Bruyne in the midfield, Aguero, Sane and Wang Yi in the frontcourt."

"Manchester United's game is a 442 formation. Because Pogba was absent due to injury, Mourinho also changed the formation. The goalkeeper is still the Spanish goalkeeper De Gea, and the defense is Luke Shaw and Lindlow. Hughes, Smalling and Ashley Young, Lingard, Fellaini, Matic and Herrera in midfield, Martial and Rashford up front.

"Manchester United's 442 formation seems to have been played this season, but it is the first time to use this 442 formation against the top six teams today."

"Indeed, under the formation of 442, the attack and speed of the flanks are a bit worse, including the cooperation between Martial and Rashford in the frontcourt. In addition, Martial has only scored 2 goals so far this season. Goals, and Rashford has 4. The two together have not scored as much as Aguero, let alone compared with Wang Yi. So this time they both play together, it seems that there is an attack considerations."

"It is debatable not to play Lukaku and Sanchez. After all, these two are not injured. They are both sitting on the bench. It seems that they will be a back-up player."

The commentator is chatting happily here, and the game has already started.

Manchester City kicks off first.

As soon as Wang got the ball, he had nothing to say, so he went straight up. Although it was 4 midfielders, Mourinho still had a double midfielder. Matic and Fellaini fell directly behind. And Wang Yi faced Herrera.

Although he is called a political commissar by Manchester United fans, he is very powerful and hard-working, but his speed is not fast enough. His skills are not bad in the Premier League, but he doesn't have an advantage in front of people like Wang Yi who have been playing skills since childhood.

Just when Wang Yiyi was about to pass Herrera directly, Mourinho's solution came out. He directly let Matic go up to mark Wang Yi.

Using a very old tactic that has rarely been used in top leagues for many years.

The exchange tactic, send a defensive player to stare at the opponent's core offensive player, and then follow wherever he goes. First of all, it is disgusting enough, and secondly, the inferior horse is replaced by your upper-class horse. It is worthwhile for Manchester United, but It is difficult for Manchester City.

But this is not the first time Wang Yi encountered this kind of thing. He also encountered it in the national team. Although the opponent of the national team is incomparable with the current opponent Matic, Wang Yi has a way to deal with it. Take the ball and play the ball directly, quickly play the ball, and then cooperate with the two to play 2 to 1 tactical cooperation, which is to use speed and rhythm to disturb the opponent. Only one person wants to defend himself alone, although he will follow wherever he goes. It's annoying, but not impossible to crack.

5 minutes into the game, Wang Yi found an opportunity this time and passed the ball to Aguero. Aguero looked over, and Wang Yi suddenly wiped it away. Matic was startled and hurried to follow. But Aguero reacted quickly and kicked the ball in front of Wang Yi. After Wang Yi got the ball, he crossed it to Aguero again. Then Wang Yi ran diagonally into the middle, with Matic behind him Running desperately, although he watched Wang Yi's back getting farther and farther away.

At this time, facing Lindelof, Wang Yi received a through ball from Aguero from the diagonally behind. Wang Yi went directly behind the central defender without looking back. Now he and Aguero have a tacit understanding in this regard.

Sure enough, the ball arrived.

As soon as Wang received the ball, De Gea was ready to make a save.

But as many football critics said, De Gea's reaction was quick and correct, but now it has begun to decline, and De Gea prefers to block shots with his feet, although it is not bad, But to a certain extent, some saving opportunities will be missed.

This time, Wang Yi aimed at the lower right corner and kicked it.

De Gea subconsciously wanted to use his foot again, but barely rubbed it, and the ball flew into the lower right corner of the goal quickly.

Wang Yi saw the ball go in.

There was no ecstasy in my heart, only a burst of relief.

"It turned out to be so easy, easier than playing Burnley!"

Wang Yi turned around and hugged Aguero.

"Kun, we are getting closer and closer."

Aguero is also very happy, the Manchester Derby scored in the 5th minute, can you be unhappy?
Guardiola did not turn his head, and said silently: "Wang Yi really is the core style of play. You see, if an assaulter encounters the opponent to block him like this, how can he find a way? Wang Yi reacted quickly, and So effective, it shows that he is playing with his head. Who will succeed if such a player does not succeed?"
