Chapter 434: Copying Li (Daily Transition)

Guardiola adjusted his emotions and continued gesturing with his hands toward the disciples.

The rich body language... gradually dispelled the dark clouds over the hearts of the Blue Moon fans.

He danced with hands and feet.

Like the conductor of the Yin Tihade concert.

Pa!

He accidentally kicked the mineral water bottle on the ground into Chelsea's coaching bench.

Originally stern-faced Guardiola instantly regretted, grabbed his bald head, bent over and jogged forward apologizing.

"Match resumed, Manchester City restarted from the center circle."

"Chelsea did not continue the high press, Tuchel paid great attention to players' physical allocation at different stages of the match."

"Manchester City's progression was very smooth, their possession system demanded high mental state from players, the deficit did not dampen their morale."

"..."

"De Bruyne and David Silva swapped positions!"

"The two wing forwards pushed forward to the front line!"

"Fernandinho and Kompany pushed forward!"

"Manchester City's formation changed to 2-4-4!"

"Can they equalize the score in the dying moments of the first half?"

Still the smooth passing and running coordination, positional rotation, vertical zipper-like offensive surge.

It drew applause and delight from a group of Middle Eastern people wearing headscarves on the VIP stands!

I love this kind of high-entertainment-value and dominant football style!

The beauty of the Blue Moon must rival the Abu Dhabi Louvre, Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque!

Thirty-meter zone.

Right rib area.

David Silva received the return pass from Walker.

Facing the double-team of Cahill, Fabregas, and Rudiger.

The Blue Moon's space magician exploded.

Sink shoulder and change direction.

Dodge and weave.

Flowers bloomed under his feet.

Under the spotlight, his gleaming bald head, dazzling and eye-catching!

Alas, he is ultimately old.

"Can't get past! The direct opponent is Cahill!"

"No! He wants to shorten the distance between Chelsea's center-back and full-back!"

"There is a large open space on the flank!"

"Wow!"

"The crowd is packed!"

"This can be passed out!"

"Walker!"

Walker felt great inside, back at Tottenham, he needed a local 3v3 to create such an opportunity at the flank junction!

Result: arriving at Manchester City, the no-longer-peak David Silva alone could achieve this.

Receive the ball.

Continue charging forward.

Baseline.

Inverted triangle.

The ball rolled swiftly along the grass toward the top of the arc of the large penalty area.

De Bruyne happened to appear at that position.

A light push.

The ball slipped through David Luiz's crotch!

"David Leaky!"

"Aguero!"

Pa!

Left side of the penalty spot.

The ball bounced off Aguero's left foot, deflected into the net.

Caballero predicted the direction at the last moment, but his body was half a beat slow.

1:1!

!

Yin Tihade Stadium, boiling at this moment!

"Beautiful!"

"Goal!"

"King of the flank space! David Silva!"

"His swap with De Bruyne disrupted Chelsea's defense!"

"The latter sent out a deadly pass, and Aguero hammered it home!"

"At the dying moments of the first half, the Blues equalized the score!"

Aguero spread his arms, roaring in anger as he charged toward the corner flag area.

Passionate celebration!

The home fans instantly erupted in a mighty roar!

The shattered spirit of Rudiger, as if time were rewound, reassembled itself.

David Silva, meanwhile, ran toward the sideline and embraced Guardiola.

The two bald men leaned against each other amid the backdrop of passionate cheers.

How to put it?

Although bald David is not at his peak, Guardiola has gained much inspiration from him regarding the half-space.

Last season was a struggle.

This season has already come close to perfection.

Li Kang touched Caballo's bald head to offer comfort.

He then picked up the football and ran toward the center circle.

In his vision, a light blue number 21 jersey slowly appeared.

David Silva.

The long-dormant Spatial Wizard module.

Copy!

The football was placed back on the center circle line.

Beep! Beep-beep~

The head referee blew the whistle signaling the end of the first half.

"The Premier League referee team strictly enforces FIFA's new regulations."

"After a goal, the ball must be replaced at the center circle before the whistle for halftime or full-time can be blown."

"Bundesliga referees firmly refuse to enforce..."

"The first half is over!"

"Both sides are temporarily tied 1-1, and the outcome remains full of suspense."

"Dear viewers, please take a brief rest; we will now go to a commercial break..."

The players from both sides walked off the pitch.

Aguero gave David Luiz a provocative glance.

No conflict erupted.

The afro-haired man, having endured society's beatings in this era, possesses a steady temperament and grows ever calmer.

Yes.

It is settling.

On the contrary, Fei Niao couldn't help but curse Diego Costa, even complaining to the fourth official about being pinched on the buttocks and stepped on the heel during the first half...

Manchester City's locker room.

Guardiola pulled out the tactical board, moved a few flags, and immediately began gesturing animatedly.

For some reason, his coaching career at Bayern and Manchester City has become increasingly pure.

No underhanded tricks.

He is purely explaining the tactical adjustments for the second half.

Of course.

He hasn't forgotten to motivate his disciples.

"Do you know why I always mention Messi?"

"If he were our teammate tonight, Chelsea would have already conceded three goals!"

"Why three goals? Look here at that early chance—if Messi had the ball, how would he handle it..."

Manchester City players: "..."

Manchester City's management is very friendly, as evidenced by this detail in the away locker room.

Other clubs like to make their away locker rooms very cramped and shabby.

But Manchester City does not.

The Premier League's only club with identical "home and away locker room" configurations.

No underhanded tricks.

The renovations of both locker rooms were carried out together.

Chelsea's locker room.

Tuchel sighed a few times with "Plans cannot keep up with changes," then called Li Kang over to the side.

The two began communicating the details of the second-half adjustments through gestures.

Dino took notes seriously.

Shortly after.

He then relayed the adjustment plan to the players.

While urging the starting players to hurry up with massage and rest, he also urged Morata to go onto the pitch to warm up and find his shooting feel.

Morata is very confident, claiming he has shooting feel 24 hours a day.

No one blamed Caballero.

Manchester City's attacking firepower this season is beyond doubt; it's possible that before long, any of the BIG6 could be beaten 4-0, 5-0, or 6-0 by them.

At the Etihad Stadium, the noise gradually returned.

Fans from other clubs who come here often shout: "F**kmoney!"

But Chelsea fans cannot say it.

The fifteen-minute halftime break ended quickly.

Players from both sides stepped back onto the pitch.

"Good evening, viewers, welcome back."

"Now broadcasting live is the second round of the 2017/18 Premier League season."

"The second half of Manchester City versus Chelsea."

"Tuchel was the first to use a substitution slot."

"Morata came on for Diego Costa."

"This is a like-for-like substitution."

Beep!

Accompanied by the referee's whistle.

The second half began.

Chelsea possession.

Morata kicked off and passed back to Li Kang.

Li Kang received the ball.

The system prompt tone sounded softly.

【Ding, detected that Morata's favorability toward you has reached maximum, overflowing...】

【Blue Bond: Legendary Connection Lv3!】

【Bond effect: Your analytical ability in the opponent's dangerous zone has been enhanced, and Morata's left- and right-foot shooting has received a slight boost.】

【Effect only active when both are on the field simultaneously.】

【Upon initial bond establishment, some of your abilities are restored to peak condition. (Currently ineffective in this match)】

Maximum favorability?

Overflow?

Is the bond established right away at Lv3?

But the Lv3 effect... how can it only give Morata a slight boost to left- and right-foot shooting?

The Manchester City players, conserving energy, launched intense high-pressure pressing at the start of the second half.

Chelsea's midfield and fullbacks were not in a hurry.

In 2017, Guardiola and Tuchel had very similar time planning for match situations: the first fifteen minutes of the second half, that's when you press!

Clap!

Clap!

Clap-clap!

Li Kang and Fabregas, Kanté made consecutive passes, relieved pressure, drew in Manchester City's high defensive line's tilt, and finally a long pass transferred the ball to Azpilicueta, who was making a high-speed run down the right flank.

This guy isn't slow, nicknamed the utility player.

During his La Liga and Ligue 1 days, he was famous as a winger specialist.

Mourinho once said: "I like players like Azpilicueta; if a team had 11 AZP, that would be wonderful."

Meanwhile.

Li Kang also lunged forward toward Manchester City's backline.

Upon entering the thirty-meter zone.

God's perspective spread out a blue line!

The analytical ability from the blue bond!

He couldn't help but marvel: Morata's brain... is actually so smart.

In view.

David Silva's phantom reappeared.

The spatial magician.

No action support.

Triggered effect: understanding of the flank rib area.

"Azpilicueta has no chance on the right flank."

"Pass the ball back to Fabregas."

"Chelsea reorganize the attack."

"Pass back again to David Luiz."

"Ground transfer to the left flank..."

"Li Kang and Azpilicueta's positions are a bit overlapping, aren't they?"

Walker and the commentator shared the same thought.

He quickly linked up with Fernandinho and Kompany to block off.

Local 3V2!

An unexpected scene occurred.

Li Kang did not receive the ball.

Leaked past.

Immediately, the whole person arced and ran, slipping through the gap between Walker and Kompany in a no-ball state.

Tuchel and Guardiola almost simultaneously stopped gesturing.

Local 3V1?

Li abandoned Hazard?

Penetrated from the flank rib?

How is it so familiar?

No.

Kompany looks uncultured, but he's very smart; he has a heart that wants to be a famous coach.

Accompanying Li Kang's movement.

He also gave up assisting and intercepting Hazard, retreating.

Simultaneously raising his hand to direct Manchester City's defense, retreat! Retreat two steps, enough!

The measure to strangle the opponent's deep space and create offside must be grasped well.

The blue army's core twisted his big butt, dribbling laterally into the space behind Li Kang.

Walker is smart, responsible for outer defense; he quickly retracted into the penalty area, increasing defensive density, preventing Hazard from suddenly cutting inside.

The one blocking the inside line, Feiniaо, could only tightly follow Hazard.

David Silva, on his way back to defend, saw this scene and couldn't help but stare: 'Was I also copied by Li?'

Hazard brought the ball to near the top of the big penalty arc.

Morata stood beside him.

"Hazard didn't engage in a duel, he passed the ball to the supporting Morata."

"What is Morata waiting for? If he lingers any longer, the ball will be lost!"

"Beautiful diagonal pass!"

"Pedro!"

"How did Li Kang get to the right side of the big penalty area! The area between Stones and Otamendi..."

Gazing at the football's rolling trajectory in Manchester City's penalty area.

Blue army fans were anxious.

Blue moon fans were also anxious.

You Chelsea bastards, why aren't you shooting yet?

"Deceived the right rib distance contraction!"

"..."

"This time again dragged Kompany aside, opening up the left rib distance."

"..."

"Withdrew from the penalty area, made a receiving tendency, forcing Ederson to retreat."

"..."

"Why isn't Morata shooting yet?"

"This Chelsea team is dragging its feet, playing like Manchester City!"

As Manchester City's defense contracted.

Chelsea's midfield and forward attacking points increased.

Li Kang pressed the offside line with three arc runs, making Manchester City's flanks very uncomfortable.

Kompany regretted: he should have been a bit more foolish, and completed the clearance during the 3V2!

The football turned and turned, guided and guided.

Fabregas, Morata, and Pedro, with extremely exquisite footwork, stubbornly dragged until Li Kang ran out of space!

Pa!

Morata suddenly shuddered with his tiger-like body.

Sent out a chip pass from the right side of the arc top!

The football lightly fell toward the left side of the penalty area!

Li Kang volleyed with a leg swing!

Bang!

The football seemed like a heavy cannon.

Mighty and heavy.

Strong and domineering.

Violently spinning toward the upper right corner of Manchester City's goal!

Ederson felt bitter in his heart: where was the promised lob shot?

He leapt up, his body stretched out, but still couldn't block this shot!

1:2!

!

"Beautiful!"

"Goal!"

"King of the rib space! Li Kang!"

"He and Morata..."

Duan Xuan suddenly paused.

These lines, I feel like I just said them not long ago...

CTV5 live stream room.

-【Handsome! Handsome! Handsome!】

-【Daqiu is tenpai, brothers! Takeout is on the way!】

-【Li Mingdeng, a lifelong football fan!】

-【Morata is really dragging his feet, why didn't he just shoot earlier? He insisted on passing to Li Kang!】

-【Grass-licking simp.】

-【Just like basketball, dragging out the attack time!】

-【Li Mingdeng is too awesome! Let me analyze his interference with Manchester City's half-space for everyone... or just copy-paste my analysis of David Silva!】

-【Kakashi Li.】

Sideline.

Dino looked at Tuchel's eyes, full of admiration.

"Boss, did you communicate this attacking pattern with Li during halftime? I must have missed it! Is this called using 'half-space play' to crush 'half-space play'?"

Tuchel's old face turned red.

"I don't know what happened."

The desire for control in his heart hadn't even ignited before being choked off by the goal.

Dino quickly comforted: "Boss, don't overthink it, just like playing a game—before the match, pick players based on the opponent, set the game tendency, attack and defense strategies, then skip the match. Winning is this simple."

On the other side.

Guardiola shook assistant coach-Altaeta's shoulder hard.

"Li has improved again."

"My idea wasn't wrong."

"If Li and David Silva were Manchester City teammates..."

Altaeta thought for a moment, then corrected: "They were already teammates to begin with."
