I started with Torres, I want to revive German football

Chapter 88: A post-match summary that made Enrique suffocated!

The moment Zhao Jinge scored the goal, the Manchester City fans at the Etihad Stadium were already in ecstasy, and even some of the more emotional fans shed tears of excitement.

Even Manchester City fans in front of the TV were thrilled and excited, they could really celebrate the victory!

Guardiola knelt on the sidelines, hands raised as if praying to God.

Feeling that his physical strength was also a little unsupportive, Zhao Jinge and De Bruyne supported each other and slowly walked back to their own half.

Injury time is almost over, victory is within reach, and they can celebrate victory just by keeping Barcelona’s final round of attack.

Luis Enrique walked back to the bench from the sidelines, already hopeless, thinking about how to deal with the media in the post-match press conference and reassure the players.

The anger of the fans and the attitude of the top management need him to deal with them one by one, and the head coach of the giants is not good!

Especially for a big club like Barcelona, victory and championship are deserved, and losing is facing boundless anger and scolding!

Messi on the bench looked at the back of the No. 9 who slowly walked back to his own half, and his hands pressed on the ice pack unconsciously clenched, and the battle intent in his heart became stronger and stronger: This time the duel is that I lost, but next time I will definitely win back!

The game resumed, and after the kick-off, Barcelona forced the last wave of attack.

After Suarez’s kick-off, Neymar burst in on the left flank with the ball.

In the face of Yaya Toure’s interception, he crossed the ball to Andres Iniesta in the middle.

Andres Iniesta continued to cut forward after receiving the ball, sending a kick that was like a stroke of God.

The ball flew behind Demichelis, who was clever and cut in for offside and received the ball, taking a step forward to completely get rid of the pursuing Kompany.

At a small angle, he forced his foot and fired a volley.

The barely shot football was eventually picked out of the air by Joe Hart, who had blocked the near corner in advance.

With the last twenty or thirty seconds left in the game, Joe Hart held the ball in his arms and raised one hand to pretend to direct his teammates on the back line, trying to delay as long as possible.

And pointing at Suarez, who was still in the box, warned him not to step forward and interfere with his kick-off.

Only after the people around him had almost dispersed and dragged himself for a while did Joe Hart open his big foot, the football flew in the air and had not yet landed, and the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game.

At the end of the match, Manchester City narrowly beat Barcelona 4-3 at home, not only winning the first victory against Barcelona in the team’s history, but also completing the group stage of the Champions League to open.

This laid the most solid foundation for them to successfully kill the group of death.

With the end of the game whistle, all Manchester City’s players rushed back into the field, rejoicing in their hard-won victory.

Even Guardiola ran around the field twice in a suit to vent his excitement and joy.

Manchester City’s players also began to interact with Manchester City fans in the stands after the game, and everyone had fun with the post-match farewell session.

In the end, in order to meet the fans’ demands, all Manchester City players threw their shirts and boots into the stands, and promised to give away more signed shirts at the fan meeting a few days later.

Compared to the Manchester City players who take advantage of the excitement and strength to interact, Barcelona’s side looks bleak.

Luis Luis returned to the dressing room early with Barca’s players and did not want to see the opponents celebratory scenes.

In the post-match selection session, Zhao Jinge, who staged his senior year, unsurprisingly won the title of the best player of the whole game.

In the quick interview session that followed, when the reporter asked Zhao Jinge how he felt about entering the first senior of his career in such an important competition.

Zhao Jinge said a little embarrassed: “Of course, I am very happy, I can’t believe that I can play such a wonderful performance now.” But it’s more of a thank you to my teammates, and if it weren’t for their contributions and help, I wouldn’t have had so many opportunities.

De Bruyne in particular, if it weren’t for his passes, I would never have scored so many goals! ”

De Bruyne on the side listened, and his ears turned a little red.

“Is De Bruyne your best teammate?”

The reporter then asked Zhao Jinge.

“Of course, without Kevin’s pass, I’m afraid I’d starve to death.”

“So what do you think of De Bruyne?”

“World-class midfielder, best passer! Like Kevin himself said, what he does best is creativity on the pitch, he can know the movement of his teammates with his eyes closed, especially mine! ”

Speaking of this, Zhao Jinge laughed happily, and his face revealed a different kind of pride.

“Kevin always predicts where an offensive player should run.

He often told me that if I felt uncomfortable receiving the ball he passed, it was definitely not passed to me, and if he passed it in place and I didn’t run it, it was my own mistake!

He’s the best and I think I can’t do without his assists! ”

De Bruyne on the side blushed, he really didn’t know how this guy next to him could say all the words in his heart after he was drunk.

De Bruyne, who has quickly cut out a set of five rooms and three halls, really wants to learn from Guardiola and say: sit down, don’t talk!

After the quick interview, Zhao Jinge, who returned to the dressing room, was immediately met with a ‘warm welcome’.

Today’s dressing room celebration was particularly enthusiastic, and the stadium staff even sent champagne for the players to use as today’s biggest protagonist, Zhao Jinge certainly not spared, as soon as he entered the door, he was sprayed up and down.

De Bruyne, who returned to the dressing room early, shrunk in the corner and sprayed two bottles of Zhao Jinge before letting go.

Compared to the dressing room full of laughter and scolding, the scene of the post-match press conference is much more serious.

Neither team’s head coach brought players to interview today.

Guardiola and Enrique both came to the venue alone, just with brisk steps and solemn expressions.

The post-match press conference began, with reporters first congratulating City on their victory and then interviewing Pep Guardiola in unison.

Because of the victory of the competition, the reporters’ questions were very friendly.

“Do you find it quite rewarding to win a game like this at the Etihad Stadium? What is your opinion on the process of the competition? ”

“Of course, with such a victory, of course I will have a considerable sense of accomplishment.

My feeling about the whole game was really not easy.

We were in a disadvantageous situation from the day of the game, but we did not lose confidence and slowly regained control of the ball, and we were always efficient on the counter-attack up front, and Zhao Jinge played an incredible game.

Both sides fought to the point of exhaustion, but in the end we came out on a slight edge and won the game.

We had a great win at home and hope for a satisfactory result in the next away meeting! ”

“From leading by two goals in fifteen minutes to being equalized, what did you think at the time?”

Faced with the second question, Guardiola was a little silent before giving his answer: “I remembered the game against Chelsea at the beginning of the season and hoped the same thing would happen, and if it happened, it would be better.

The team didn’t lose our minds, we started scoring goals, creating threats and we improved our defense. They hurt us on the right because Messi and Andres Iniesta often break through from there.

But in the end, we persevered and the spirit of the team was greatly improved.

After the second equaliser, we also resolutely played an offensive stance to achieve the final victory. ”

“After winning the opener, especially against the strongest opponents in the group. Have Manchester City secured a spot, or even the first place? ”

“Of course not, there are five whole games left to play, how can you think about qualifying or something like that now.”

Guardiola shook his head instantly after hearing the question, blurted out the words of denial, and then continued: “Bayer Leverkusen and Roma are not easy teams to win, not to mention that we need to challenge Barcelona away from home.

In today’s game, we can say that we have some home and physical advantages.

On the road, it’s Barcelona’s turn to take the lead.

At that time, who wins and who loses does not know what the result will be?!

Barcelona suffered in the second half, but so did we in the first half, they played very positively after the equaliser, we should be satisfied because the game was great, but also look to the next game! ”

“Mr. Pep Guardiola, in your eyes, is Zhao Jinge, who scored four goals in this game and led Manchester City to victory, better than Messi?!”

It is also a question of comparison between Zhao Jinge and Messi, since the last time he talked a lot about how much potential Zhao Jinge has, every post-match interview has reporters who are happy to ask this question.

In this regard, Guardiola, as the leader of Zhao Chui’s group, is also quite helpless, one is the white moonlight of the past, and the other is the current cinnabar mole.

Isn’t such a question embarrassing me Guardiola?!

In the end, Guardiola answered this question pertinently: “If only from this game, Zhao Jinge’s performance is undoubtedly more outstanding, which can be proved by the victory and statistics.”

But today’s Messi is affected by injuries and is not in his best condition, and from his past performances, Messi is obviously better than Zhao Jinge.

Who is stronger between the two people needs to be left to time to judge. ”

Guardiola responded to the reporters’ questions with ease.

But Enrique on the side had to face the bombardment of journalists.

“What would you say about Barcelona tonight?! Who is to blame for the outcome of this game! ”

Faced with this problem of dividing the pot from the beginning, Enrique could only bite the bullet and honestly say: “I think everything was obvious tonight: we conceded four goals, which means we could have done better in some ways, but the results were obviously different.

At the beginning of the game, we were very fluid in attack, which was definitely a positive performance, and it was very important to have the initiative on the pitch until we conceded goals in the first half.

Apart from conceding a goal in the first half, it was probably our best performance of the whole season, and everyone knows that we have not been very good at the beginning of the season because of injuries and the team’s form.

Not only did they suffer defeats in the Spanish Super Cup, but they also beat their opponents by one goal in La Liga, and the smooth attack like the first half today is the result of the players’ hard work.

We could have scored a couple of goals in the first half, we had a chance, but we were a bit unlucky because the opponent was fighting in the box and Joe Hart showed the style of a world-class goalkeeper.

Then there were consecutive goals conceded at the end of the first half and at the beginning of the second half, and we couldn’t do a better job of defending. It was indeed a mistake because we conceded the goal in exactly the same way on both occasions, and it was directly penetrated by Manchester City’s counter-attack on the right side of the defence.

I didn’t make the right direction and I could even say that all four of our goals were conceded that way.

I apologize to everyone for this, we didn’t stop Zhao Jinge, and my defensive tactics against him didn’t work.

We have to do a better job of defending, there are obviously enough players around, but no one intercepts Zhao Jinge This is a very intense game, and this is also Zhao Jinge’s world-class moment! But obviously, we can defend better.

After conceding two goals, Messi stepped up and guided our midfielders to two deadly attacks on the right.

At one point, we equalised and even had hopes of winning the game.

We continued to attack and then we conceded the third goal, which was a terrible conceded goal, today it almost changed the rules of the game, we lost momentum at that moment and never really regained momentum.

Although we equalised after that, we knew that when City scored the third goal to put the lead again, we had lost hope of winning and had to try to fight for a draw.

After scoring the third goal, they scored a fourth in injury time. Everything is deflected, and to be honest, their defense is not very good either.

We conceded goals at the wrong moment, which was obviously a big problem against Manchester City because their counter-attack was threatening, that’s the result, that’s it.

If anyone is responsible for the game, it should be me, after all, it was I who despised Zhao Jinge in the defensive arrangement before the game. ”

Enrique calmly took responsibility for the loss and could not have allowed his players to face the media rebuke.

“Are you worried about what impact this result will have on the confidence of your players? Given Barcelona’s recent erratic performance, are you at risk of leaving? ”

The second question was again pointed sharply and directly at Enrique.

Enrique smiled reluctantly and made his own answer bitterly: “I see that everyone thinks so, which is understandable, but in fact it will not.”

Because after the game I told the players directly that something different happened tonight and it was a completely opposite result to what we wanted.

We made mistakes in conceding goals and yes we admitted our failures. I’ve also said several times that if you don’t learn from it, a failure is a failure.

The start of tonight’s game and the goal on the equaliser were outstanding.

In short, we played the style of play we wanted, we became what we wanted to be and that’s what we have to continue to do.

So if we let this result affect us now, then we’re really stupid.

We have a few days and we’re going to make sure we get the right thing out of this game.

Although this game has certainly had a certain impact on the future of the team.

But I would prefer that he stir up shame in the players and make them work harder in future games to recover what is lost in the next meeting.

As for the risk of leaving, I don’t know yet and I’m sure some minor setbacks at the moment won’t affect my coaching journey at Barcelona. ”

After answering two questions, Enrique got up and left the venue, not wanting to continue to entangle with the reporters.

He also needs to rush back to the dressing room to comfort his players and fly back to Barcelona overnight.

With La Liga fixture set to restart in a few days, they don’t have the time or energy to bask in the pain of defeat.

The author’s testimonials Torres don’t want to kick a single knife today only so much, tomorrow two days should also be a single change, the author is going to the exam on the 25th, the 24th is the day after tomorrow to leave for other cities, there are just two chapters in hand specially left a manuscript, first top.

After the exam on the 25th, let’s see if I can write a little more in the evening, and on the 26th, that is, Sunday, it will definitely be once a day.

I hope you will take care of it! Sorry!
