Champions League match day, first leg of the 1/8 finals, Etihad Stadium.
Yang Feng slowly walked into the visiting team's locker room.
The noisy locker room suddenly fell silent, and then suddenly became lively.
Except for letting go of Yang Feng and Raul, Shakuang basically maintained the main lineup that won the championship last season. The 50 million obtained from selling Yang Feng was almost not spent, which is also awesome.
However, with the breakout from the Champions League group stage again this season, although the league has returned to the old path of being firmly suppressed by Bayern and Dortmund, it is not a shame to be ranked third in the Bundesliga, so at the end of the season this It’s really hard to say how many batch people can be retained.
Looking around, almost all of them were old acquaintances. Everyone looked at the Manchester City jersey he was wearing. Although they had mixed emotions, smiles appeared on their faces.
Hewedes smiled and said: "Look! Who is this? Why do I feel that he looks a bit like the new Mr. Golden Ball?"
"No, no, no, you must be dazzled. Mr. Golden Ball is not like this."
"...This is my first Golden Globe, but it won't be the last...I have to say, this is indeed your style."
"Thank me, I put a knife to the neck of our national team captain before he voted for you."
Yang Feng didn't answer their teasing, just smiled and walked in, shaking hands, high-fiving, and hugging.
When it was Draxler's turn, the guy waved his hands in disgust, "Get out, get out! He is definitely here to spy on the enemy! Hurry up and get out of the way!"
Yang Feng gave him a kick without courtesy and said to everyone: "No one will interfere later, I will challenge him alone."
Xiaode's face turned green, "I'm sorry, the boss said, I don't need to defend this time, we are out of position."
"No need to defend? Isn't that my prerogative?"
"It's mine now."
"Then I'll defend you?"
Draxler immediately felt that he could do it, "Really?"
"Fake," Yang Feng said, "Do you still need me to defend you? I will send my little brother to deal with you later... Huh?"
Speaking of his little brother, Yang Feng remembered, "Where's Sane? Come here."
Sane hurriedly squeezed over, "Yang."
Yang Feng looked at his bird's nest-like hair and felt a twinge of discomfort in his heart, but he didn't say it out loud. He just asked, "I heard you've been doing well recently?"
Farfan said: "It's really good. Apart from not being able to shoot, everything is good...isn't it similar to you before?"
Draxler continued to be disgusted, "Not only did he not know how to shoot, he couldn't even pass."
"This is the difference between you and me," Yang Feng said with a father-like expression on his face, "You only think about the past, but I always look to the future. This is called pattern, do you understand?"
Xiaode was used to his Maple Talk, so of course he knew he was talking nonsense, but Sane next to him was fooled and started to think seriously.
Stevens couldn't stand it any longer, and said with a mixed expression, "Okay, let's plan the tactics, and everyone who has nothing to do with it will leave immediately."
Yang Feng stepped forward, and Lao Shi took a photo of it in a folder, "I've never taught you to enter someone else's locker room before a game."
"Tch! Who among us is following whom..." Yang Feng shrank his head, stretched out his hand and shook his hand, "I won't show mercy, boss."
Stevens let go of his hand, rubbed his head hard again, and said to the others: "Did you all hear that?"
"I heard!"
Stevens said: "Then let's start the war!"
"Okay, okay," Yang Feng waved his hand, "Let the war begin."
…
"Manchester City has also begun to suffer from injuries recently. Aguero and David Silva finally recovered from injuries at the same time and both entered the squad. However, Yaya Toure sprained his ankle in training again. Unable to miss this game, Pellegrini chose the latter between Fernandinho and Kante.
Let's take a look at their starting lineup.
Goalkeeper: 13-Oblak;
Defenders: 5-Zabaleta, 4-Kompany, 26-Demichelis, 22-Klich;
Midfielder: 27-Kante, 8-Kros, 21-David Silva, 9-Yang Feng;
Forwards: 10-Dzeko, 16-Aguero.
Kante and Kroos double as defensive midfielders, Yang Feng and Silva double as front midfielders! "
Yang Feng unlocked a new position in the last league game, and Pellegrini was addicted to it. This time he continued to press him in the attacking midfielder position.
Cassano and Isco, who came down from the ball sense and dribbling positions, were installed by Yang Feng on vision and short passing. The vision became S, the short passing became A, and Fan Zhiyi's star card was installed on interception. , also A, plus other comprehensive attributes, he is now at least a quasi-world-class level in attacking midfielder.
He also changed the positions of Neymar and Robinho's star cards. Neymar's was placed on ball feel, and Robinho's was placed on dribbling.
Although they are both SS-level, Ma'er's ball feel is smoother than Robinho's. The difference between the two is probably the difference between the late Jin Dan and the peak Jin Dan?
"Schalke also played 4-4-2.
Goalkeeper: 34 Hildebrand;
Defenders: 22 Uchida Atsuto, 4 Hwedes (c), 32 Matip, 23 Fuchs;
Midfielder: 12 Hoegel, 13 Jones, 17 Farfan, 10 Draxler;
Forwards: 25 Huntelaar, 19-Sane.
This was one of the most commonly used lineups for Schalke 04 last season, except that Yang Feng was replaced by Sane.
This young player has grown very rapidly. The reason why Schalke 04 can maintain excellent results in the Champions League and the league this season is inseparable from his outstanding performance..."
Of course, Yang Feng knew that his former teammates were holding back a lot of energy and wanted to prove that "we can do the same without you" and "you will regret it". The defense he encountered would definitely not be much easier.
Unfortunately, the current Yang Feng is no longer the Yang Feng they are familiar with. As soon as the game started, several sand mine midfielders could really feel Yang Feng's huge progress in the past six months.
Sand Mine kicked off first, and the football was handed over to Draxler's feet after a simple pass in the backcourt, and he was responsible for advancing it.
Xiaode was running with the ball down the wing, but he didn't expect Yang Feng to really rush towards him.
If the attack and defense call, he is not confident that he can stop Yang Feng even if he borrows a pair of feet. But if he attacks Yang Feng and defends, then he is confident that he can beat Yang Feng twice.
The teammates were obviously happy to see them duel and did not join in the fun.
Xiaode also deliberately slowed down, with a smile on his face. The moment he approached Yang Feng, his body swayed continuously, and his feet alternately crossed the football.
Cycling.
Yang Feng quickly stopped and retreated slowly according to his rhythm.
Xiao De stepped on him five times, but when he saw that he was not moving at all, he thought he was stunned, so he quickly found a random direction and rushed over.
As a result, the man passed but the ball disappeared.
Yang Feng stretched out his foot in the lightning and flint, and stole the ball directly from his feet.
The smile on Draxler's face turned into astonishment, and he turned his head and watched Yang Feng go away.
Hegel and Jones hurried in one behind the other.
Hegel was already prepared to be overtaken by Yang Feng. Unexpectedly, Yang Feng suddenly slowed down when the two sides got close.
Although he didn't understand what kind of plane Yang Feng was planning, Hegel immediately stepped over.
Yang Feng stepped on the ball with his right foot and pulled back. He knocked the heel of his left foot and Marseille cleverly avoided it with a spin.
Jones, who was following behind, hadn't figured out how to face Yang Feng, but Yang Feng was already swaying quickly from side to side... on his bicycle.
Everyone looked at Draxler with strange eyes.
Yang Feng's actions seemed to be saying...open your eyes and see how he plays.
Of course, Jones was familiar with Yang Feng's bicycle. He quickly stabilized his center of gravity and retreated slowly, but as he retreated, he felt something was wrong.
Why so fast?
Even Manchester City fans had some strange feelings.
Of course they have also seen Yang Feng's cycling performance. Whether it is the most common two-footed feint or the coquettish style of Cristiano Ronaldo and Quaresma, they have experienced it more than once, but they don't know why, this time they feel Especially different.
If they had to find a reference, they could only think of the first superstar attracted by Manchester City's money-dollar policy: the cycling boy Robinho.
"Once, twice, three times, four times... that's it! Yang Feng stepped on the bicycle nine times in a row and knocked his former teammate Jones to the ground! Crazy performance!"
After Yang Feng passed Heger and Jones, he looked up in the direction of the penalty area. Fuchs was almost fooled, and quickly retracted his right foot that he stretched out to intercept.
"Oh?" Yang Feng originally wanted to look at him and push him over with a casual buckle, but he didn't expect Fuchs to not be fooled. He couldn't help but be a little surprised.
But before Fuchs had time to be happy, Yang Feng had already stabbed the ball hard and then chased after him with all his strength.
"Here we go again!" Fuchs was almost mad with depression.
If you can't master the technique, you'll start crushing with speed. If you can't master the speed, you'll start fighting with strength. In short, I have never seen such a disgusting person.
Yang Feng flew the ball from the wing, and Dzeko and Aguero hit the goal in the penalty area.
Hwedes and Matip in the penalty area abandoned Dzeko and Akun in a tacit understanding and rushed out of the penalty area at the same time.
Atsushi Uchida on the other side also ran forward quickly, causing Manchester City's two forwards to fall into the offside position.
However, Hewedes and Matip came out of the penalty area not to set up an offside trap, but they were both sure that Yang Feng would not pass the ball and would do it alone.
The guess was correct, but unfortunately there was no prize.
Yang Feng was like a nimble loach, frying balls with his left and right feet, passing between Hewedes and Matip with almost no pause.
Dzeko and Aguero, who were running out, quickly dispersed to make way for Yang Feng.
Hildebrand abandoned the goal and came face-to-face with Yang Feng in the small penalty area.
"Yang Feng defeated four people in a row! Single-handedly! Hildebrand attacked, Yang Fengzhong... Huh? It seems like it's not a pendulum, but a bicycle... so fast!"
Yang Feng's feet quickly passed over the football, even leaving an afterimage.
Hildebrand was shaken around, and just as he was about to choose a random direction to pounce, Yang Feng suddenly pushed the outer instep of his right foot outwards, out of the angle.
Hildebrand reacted quickly and immediately fell to the ground and threw herself, but unfortunately she missed...
Yang Feng suddenly stepped on and pulled the ball with his right foot, and the football rolled directly from behind his left foot to his left.
There is already a vast plain ahead of me.
Yang Feng pushed lightly with the inside of his left foot, and the football rolled towards the empty goal.
On the other side, Uchida Atsuto chased after him desperately and slid away towards the football.
"Bang!" The football was kicked out of the penalty area by Uchida Atsushi, and he slid into the goal.
However, players and fans from both sides did not celebrate, but looked at the referee at the same time.
The referee was under great pressure, but he still decisively put the whistle into his mouth and blew it hard.
"The goal is valid!" He Shi secretly breathed a sigh of relief. "Uchida Atsushi made a goal-line rescue, but the ball had already crossed the goal line before that... Looking at the replay, sure enough, it was a good goal and the referee's decision was correct. , Congratulations to Yang Feng for scoring the eleventh goal in the Champions League..."
Yang Feng did not celebrate, but bent down to pull Hildebrand up, patted his shoulder gently, and then turned and walked towards the midfield.
His teammates ran over, and Yang Feng accepted their congratulations with a calm expression.
The Sand Mine fans who came with the team were silent for a while.
"Yang Feng broke through the door of his old club when he touched the ball for the first time. He must have felt very uncomfortable. After all, less than a year ago, the jersey he was wearing was still dark blue. These players who had just been continuously broken by him At that time, everyone was still standing behind him, guarding Fang for him, but unfortunately..." He Shi said, "Everyone has changed their positions now, each has his own teammates, and everything will never be the same again..."
Stevens was sitting on the coach's bench on the sidelines, resting his chin on his right hand, his expression calm, as if he had expected it.
Draxler put his hands on his hips, speechless and choked.
They were originally inferior in terms of strength, but now they fell behind at the beginning. Schalke 04 immediately fell into a dilemma.
Should we fight to the death, or should we be conservative and look for another chance after returning home?
"...The game continues... Schalke 04 did not strengthen their offensive, but seemed a bit conservative. Also, Manchester City has not lost at home this season. It is too difficult to take away a victory from here. It is better to hold on. With this score, if we launch an offensive after returning to the Veltins Arena, we might even be able to create a miracle..."
Schalke 04's bus tactics did bring some trouble to Manchester City, but as everyone's momentum came out, Schalke 04 soon encountered constant crises.
In the tenth minute of the game, Yang Feng received a wide-range transfer of the ball from David Silva and then cut inside and shot a cold arrow, and the football slipped past the goal.
In the 15th minute, Yang Feng made a pass from the front of the penalty area. Dzeko's header was lifted over the crossbar by Hildebrand.
In the 38th minute, Yang Feng received a long pass from Kroos and then moved to the left. David Silva cleverly passed the ball through and Aguero made the final decision, 2-0.
In the 50th minute of the game, Yang Feng once again passed four people and passed in front of the goal. Dzeko beat Matip with a header and scored, 3-0.
In the 62nd minute of the game, David Silva dribbled the ball on the left side of the penalty area and was tripped by Atsuhito Uchida. Schalke 04 received a free kick.
Yang Feng passed the ball to the goal with an arc, and Kroos scored with a shot, 4-0.
Manchester City have half a foot in the quarter-finals.
Yang Feng made two passes and one shot, turning from Schalke 04's patron saint into their life-threatening talisman...
