Football: Take away half of Boss Mei's skills at the beginning

Mateo couldn't help but glance at Rodri. He couldn't figure out how this big guy over 1.95 meters tall could run so fast.

Perhaps, he started running back after he failed in the header?

This awareness is really top-notch.

No wonder Guardiola is willing to pay more than 70 million pounds for him.

In recent years, Manchester City has been troubled by the aging of Fernandinho, and the arrival of Rodri has completely solved this problem.

He is over 1.95 meters tall and has a lot of pressure, and his footwork is enough to ensure the connection between Manchester City's midfield and backcourt.

Therefore, Manchester City's entire system looks more complete.

Of course, Manchester City is not without shortcomings this season.

First, Aguero's injuries have increased, and they can only use Jesus to play the number nine position more often.

But although Jesus is not bad, he still has some gaps with Aguero in passing the ball to his teammates.

In Guardiola's tactical system, the center forward should often pass the ball to his teammates instead of simply being a goal-scoring machine.

Although Jesus can score a lot of goals, he seems to be a little short of the center forward Guardiola wants.

Second, Manchester City's defense has also been plagued by injuries this year. Stones has been absent for a long time, and Laporte's physical condition has not been very good, so Guardiola often has to let Fernandinho come to play as a central defender.

Although Otamendi is experienced, he is not a reliable central defender.

So De Zerbi also knows that if Parma can do something about Manchester City's defense, it may not be without a chance to win!

Therefore, when Mateo was in the frontcourt, he intentionally or unintentionally looked for confrontation with Otamendi, hoping to find an opportunity.

However, this kind of opportunity is not easy to find. There may be only one in a game, or there may be no such opportunity in a game.

In the following time, Manchester City still controlled the situation on the field. They used their dense and powerful passing and control system to attack Parma's defensive system.

Parma rarely had the opportunity to grab the ball, so naturally there was no chance to counterattack.

However, Manchester City has not found any opportunities. Kim Min-jae was in excellent form in this game, which allowed him to win many confrontations, thus ensuring that the area in front of Vicario was safe.

Time passed by minute by minute, and soon came to the end of the first half.

At this time, Parma finally found a good opportunity!

Rossi got the ball in the backcourt. The moment he received the ball, he saw the situation in the frontcourt. He directly passed the ball to Kulusevski who was advancing on the right front, wanting him to use his speed to disrupt the opponent's defense.

But Mendy has returned to his position, and it seems that the Swede cannot easily break through.

So he took a few steps and sent the ball directly to the frontcourt.

Mateo leaned on Otamendi to get the ball, and he passed it back to McAllister, and then he bypassed Otamendi and rushed forward!

McAllister immediately caught this opportunity, and he quickly passed the ball back to Mateo!

Mateo was already one step ahead of Otamendi at this time. After receiving the ball, he continued to advance and soon came to the top of the penalty area!

On the other side, Laporte had already made up for the defense, and he was ready to attack from the front and back with Otamendi!

But when Mateo saw that the situation was not good, he was ready to swing his leg and shoot from a distance!

Laporte certainly knew that Mateo had a long-range shot, so he subconsciously stretched out his leg to interfere with the opponent's shot.

But Mateo didn't expect that this was a fake move. He suddenly chose to dunk the ball when he was about to touch the ball, and completely got past Laporte's block!

Laporte's heart sank, and he hurriedly tried to make amends, but at this time Mateo had already come to the penalty area, and he had no space to foul again!

Otamendi behind him did not dare to act rashly. The only thing he could do was to follow Mateo, hoping to interfere with his shot!

But Mateo pushed the ball to the lower right corner very steadily. Ederson, who attacked, failed to completely block the angle, and the football rolled into the goal quickly behind him!

One to zero, Parma unexpectedly took the lead away from home!

Guardiola on the sidelines was very dissatisfied. He kicked over the water bottle on the sidelines angrily.

And De Zerbi waved his fist excitedly. He didn't expect Parma to be able to take the lead in such a difficult situation!

After scoring, Mateo came to the away team's fan area, and he once again made a celebration gesture of listening to the voices of the fans.

But this time he wanted to hear the screams and cheers of Parma fans for him more.!

And just after this goal appeared, countless broadcasters were replaying this goal over and over again.

In the distant oriental country, a pair of partners that fans are very familiar with were also commenting on this goal.

They are Zhan Jun and Zhang, and the platform that has the right to broadcast the Champions League also invited them to be commentators.

Zhang commented in his very distinctive voice: "Lucarelli is still very smart in this ball. He took advantage of the opponent's fear of his long-range shot and found this opportunity in the gap. It can be said that this is a very reasonable choice."

He paused and said: "And his last shot was also handled very well. He used his body to block Otamendi behind him, so that his shot was not disturbed. And he did not choose to pass the goalkeeper, because Laporte had already come up to defend. If he passed the goalkeeper, he would probably lose the angle of shooting. In these few ", Mateo showed his ability to seize the opportunity very clearly. "

Zhan Jun said: "This young striker who has become famous also scored his fourth Champions League goal, which makes him the top scorer in the scorer list."

Zhang coach watched the replay again at this time, and praised: "Just the way of handling the ball is really comfortable to watch, no action is superfluous! Our country's forwards should really learn from him. If they have Lucarelli's ability to handle the ball, our national team will not have to worry about the lack of forwards. "

Zhan Jun couldn't help laughing.

Is this too much for our forwards?

Even Wu Qiuwang, who plays in La Liga now, can't figure out how to stop the ball and handle the ball in front of the goal, let alone other forwards.

Just watch the game carefully, don't think about these problems that make you upset...

Guardiola calmed down at this time. He carefully recalled the goal just now, and Mateo's actions kept replaying in his mind.

Able to play the ball, cooperate with teammates, dribble past opponents, and handle single shots steadily, isn't this the center forward he has always dreamed of?

Moreover, he is only 18 years old, isn't this the answer to Manchester City's forward line in the next ten years?

When he thought of this, Guardiola's eyes became warm.
