Yang Feng came off the bench to pass and shoot. Manchester City once again won Roma, winning five games and ranking first in the group.
Real Madrid has three wins and two losses, ranking second in the group with 9 points.
Roma ranks third with two wins and three losses. The only chance is to beat Real Madrid in the last round. Not only must they win, but they must also exceed the goal difference. You can imagine the difficulty.
As for poor Borisov... let's focus on participation. After all, just one qualification has already allowed them to surpass most teams.
Yang Feng has raised the goal record in the Champions League group stage to 14 goals. If he wants, he can mention this number even higher, but now Manchester City has determined that it will qualify first in the group, and the next round will be an expedition to Russia. , so he will have a great chance of taking a break by then, and this record will probably stop here for the time being.
I just finished playing in the Champions League on the 26th, and I have to play in the Premier League non-stop on the 28th. Fortunately, Pellegrini has been rotated in the Champions League, otherwise he would have been swayed by the Football Association again.
In the league match against Southampton on the 28th, almost all the starting players in the third round of the Champions League group stage got a rest. Manchester City once again attacked with a broken lineup, but this was enough for the Saints.
Not only did Manchester City's front line flourish, but the backcourt players also stepped forward to assist and even shoot without doing their job many times. In the end, they won 6-0.
Another big win.
Counting this game, this is the eighth time this season that Manchester City has scored more than five goals (including five goals) against its opponent in a single game.
Just when the whole of Europe was exclaiming that the blue terror was coming, they actually handed in a goalless draw in the next 15th round of the Premier League.
Beating Manchester United by 7, Real Madrid by 6, Chelsea by 5, and then drawing 0-0 with Stoke City. Apart from lamenting the uncertainty of the greenery, everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, it is not so invincible, otherwise they can just play by themselves. Otherwise, why bother to hold so many games just to award Manchester City awards?
As if to prove that Manchester City has finally begun to degenerate, in the last round of the Champions League group stage, they were once again tied 2-2 by Borisov in an away game. Even though almost all substitutes played, it was still Manchester City's second draw this season. It’s enough to keep many people entertained for a while.
But even though they suffered two consecutive draws at the beginning of December, the citizens were not panicked at all, and there was no disturbance within the team, and they still treated the following 16th round of the league with a normal attitude.
In the end, relying on Aguero's goal, Manchester City defeated Swansea 1-0. This made Arsenal, who will face Manchester City next, energetic. Only some Gunners fans went crazy based on the fact that Manchester City and Yang Feng played against a strong team. The past infers that things are never that simple.
Yang Feng, who has already suffered a goal drought in two games, doesn't know how many bullets are in the barrel.
But just before Manchester City was about to travel to London, the club had a special guest.
Alf-Inge Haaland, the former Manchester City captain, played 40 games for Blue Moon and scored 3 goals. The "highlight" of his career was when his leg was tackled by Keane in 2001.
But Yang Feng knew that his real highlight moment had actually arrived in 2000.
Because little Haaland was born that year.
But what even Yang Feng didn't know was that because of this kid, many years later, among his random nicknames, there would be a "first-generation demon" who seemed completely unrelated to him.
It is natural for everyone to see retired players return to the club to visit. Usually they shake hands, take photos, brag and so on, and forget it, but today Yang Feng showed great interest.
And the object of his interest was not old Haaland, but the rather scruffy-looking big man next to him.
The young man obviously came here for Yang Feng. When he saw his idol taking the initiative to say hello, he was so nervous that his smile became quite stiff.
It was old Harland who had seen the world, and shook hands with Yang Feng warmly, "Well done, man, it's a pity that you came too late, otherwise we could still fight side by side."
"It's probably because you left too early," Yang Feng said with a smile, "Now is the best time for Manchester City."
"Oh, yes, it's all damn Keane..." Old Harlan complained, but with an open-minded smile on his face.
"It's all over, whether it's Keane or Manchester United, it will become history," Yang Feng turned to look at Harland Jr., "Then, why don't you introduce this young man? He looks very good."
"Of course, this is my pride, but he seems to want to introduce himself to you."
"Hello Yang," said little Harland, "I am Harland, Erling Harland, you can call me..."
"Buu?"
Harland was stunned for a moment, "Uh..."
"Hahaha, have you read that comic? "Dragon Ball", has anyone said that you look similar to a character in it?"
"Yes, I have seen it, Majin Buu."
"Listen to me, Harlan, you should come to Manchester City. We already have a Sora Tsubasa and a Tintin. You can form an anime trio with them."
"I will, but I would rather team up with you."
Old Harland said: "His room is almost covered with your posters."
"Group with me? That's not a good name to choose."
Harland took Yang Feng's words seriously, "I will think about it carefully."
"Then you have to hurry up, don't wait until I retire and you are still hanging around in Norway."
"Hey, hey, hey," Akun said dissatisfiedly as he walked over, "Are you going to abandon me now? Just for this kid? Oh, why is this cake seller so tall?"
Yang Feng also stretched out his hand to compare, "How old are you? Why are you ready to be as tall as me?"
"I'm 15 years old and I'm still growing," Harland said. "I will become as strong as you."
Aguero had no consciousness of being ignored and interrupted: "Come on, your template should be Yin Bu, the big guy from Sweden." "Don't listen to him, your template is only yourself," Yang Feng said, "Okay, we have to train. You know, tomorrow we are going to London to play Wenger's team. It is not an easy opponent."
"But the stronger the opponent, the better your performance will be, right?"
"Yes, the young man is very good at talking, let's make an agreement," Yang Feng said with a smile, "If I can score a hat trick in this game, then I will give you the game ball, but if not, there is nothing I can do." Now, you know, I haven’t scored in two games."
"Then I will put it in the most conspicuous place at home."
"I hope that the most conspicuous place in your home can be used to place the Golden Globe trophy in the future." Yang Feng reached out and gave him a high-five. "Believe me, I haven't made any mistakes. You are the material. The premise is that your talents are not wasted.”
Harland was so shocked that he was speechless.
The next day, Haaland and his son took the club's complimentary tickets and sat in the seats behind the visiting team's bench at the Emirates Stadium, and they were in the first row. This position made them feel like they could even hear the breathing of the substitute players. The sense of participation made the father and son want to put on their jerseys and go out and play.
When the players came out, the Arsenal players were naturally cheered by the audience, but when it was Yang Feng's turn, a strange scene happened.
As many people booed him as many people applauded him.
You must know that this is the home court of Arsenal, and Yang Feng has trampled this team under his feet more than once, but many Gunners fans cheered for him as if they were seeing their own star.
This kind of fans are the so-called "people fans".
Idols are above everything else, including your home team and parents.
Young Haaland comes from a sports family. He has watched almost every major home game in the world, if not all, but this is the first time he has seen such an outrageous situation.
His current mood is probably similar to when Lao Liu saw Qin Shihuang traveling.
As a true man, this is what you should do.
"Friends, spectators, welcome to the Emirates Stadium. A highlight battle in the 17th round of the Premier League is about to start here. The two sides are the current league leader Manchester City and the third-place Arsenal."
"This is the second time the two sides have met this season. The first time was the Community Shield at the beginning of the season. At that time, Manchester City defeated Arsenal 2-1 with Yang Feng's brace to win the championship. This time they meet on a narrow road in the league, Arsenal will definitely We have to take revenge, and Manchester City will go all out to keep the top spot, so we look forward to a wonderful matchup between the two sides."
"The game has begun, let's take a look at the starting lineups of both sides."
“Arsenal’s two-striker formation.
Goalkeeper: 33-Cech;
Defenders: 18-Monreal, 6-Koscielny, 4-Per Mertesacker, 24-Bellerin;
Midfielder: 20-Flamini, 16-Ramsey, 28-Joel Campbell, 11-Ozil;
Forwards: 14-Walcott, 12-Giroud. "
"Manchester City has mostly rotated between 4-4-2 and 4-3-3 this season, but in important games it is usually 4-4-2, and this game was it.
Goalkeeper: 1-Oblak;
Defenders: 2-Welchier, 4-Kompany, 6-Van Dijk, 3-Cancelo;
Midfielder: 7-Kante, 8-Kros, 21-David Silva, 17-De Bruyne;
Forwards: 16-Aguero, 9-Yang Feng. "
Manchester City kicked off first, and Yang Feng cooperated with De Bruyne behind him, preparing to launch a lightning raid right from the start. Unfortunately, Ding Ding's overhead pass was pushed aside by Campbell.
The football fell to the wing. As soon as Ozil stopped the ball, Yang Feng turned and rushed towards him.
There was nothing to be polite about Yang Feng. His flying tackle was even worse than the one Keane used to tackle old Haaland. Ozil was so frightened that he quickly jumped away, letting Yang Feng relax. Get the ball.
The home fans didn't know whether they were angered by this cowardice or frightened by Yang Feng's vicious foul. Various greetings immediately came from all directions of the stadium.
Yang Feng remained unmoved and took the ball and started running towards Arsenal's defense along the wing.
What made the fans even more dissatisfied was that Ozil did not counterattack or chase after him, as if he had not recovered from the brutal shovel just now.
"Yang Feng's tackle was very fierce, but he didn't touch anyone. I wonder if it will be judged as a dangerous move by the referee... Look at this attack, the rapid breakthrough from the wing, can Bellerin stop it?"
Bellerin thought that if he had an extra arm and a leg, he might be able to stop it.
When a player is as strong as Drogba, as nimble as Robinho, as dribbling as Neymar, and as fast as the wind like Caniggia, then there is no place on this planet that can defeat anyone in one-on-one situations. The people he stopped were basically rare, and these scattered hairs and horns had to be found throughout the entire history of football.
What's more, he can pass the ball like Beckham and Xavi and hit the goal like Van Persie.
The attack ended with a General Fan-style kick.
A left-footed volley with a very cool movement made the Gunners fans seem to have seen the Arsenal captain who once destroyed the city for them and was omnipotent.
The football went straight to the blind spot. Cech made a very experienced pounce in advance and pushed the ball over the bottom line with great danger.
"...Yang Feng cut inside and hit the goal! Cech made a world-class save, and Manchester City won a corner kick right after the opening kick."
"De Bruyne kicked the ball out, Yang Feng moved flexibly and headed the ball towards the goal, but unfortunately it was slightly higher."
"Arsenal's offense... Kante successfully stole the ball, took the ball forward, and passed the ball diagonally to Silva. Silva kicked the ball. Aguero missed the ball, and Yang Feng followed up and hit the goal! It was just one step away. A little bit.”
"...Man City's goal kick, De Bruyne went straight to the ground, Yang Feng followed up and shot through the net, but unfortunately it was offside, and Arsenal escaped again."
"Yang Feng, who has not scored for almost 180 minutes, was very active on the front line. He ran rampant in front of Arsenal's defense and turned the world upside down!"
Arsenal's two central defenders, Koscielny and Mertesacker, originally launched a zone defense against Yang Feng, but from the beginning until now, they always feel that they are surrounded by Yang Feng!
Aggressive running, fast speed, boundless energy, almost everywhere.
Coupled with the tacit cooperation of other Manchester City players, Arsenal's rhythmic advantage that had frightened opponents in the past could not be used. After slowing down, Arsenal was obviously at a disadvantage in the confrontation.
In this situation, everyone knows that Manchester City will score sooner or later.
The old man Pellegrini sat on the ground with his legs crossed, while Wenger was anxious and anxious on the sidelines, but it was of no use.
In the 10th minute of the game, what was supposed to come came.
Cross received the ball in the frontcourt and made quick short passes with De Bruyne and Silva. The three of them slowly approached Arsenal's goal like blunt knives cutting flesh.
Arsenal had no choice but to retreat and protect the goal, but the three of them were still patiently kicking their feet. Suddenly, Silva performed his master's trick and passed Flamini's crotch with a miraculous heel pass. past.
Yang Feng appeared mysteriously behind Flamini.
Harland in the stands clearly heard various gasps of air.
You must know that he was sitting in the Manchester City fan section, but the reaction of the Arsenal fans could reach him across such a long distance. You can imagine how panicked and frightened these people were at this moment.
Naturally, Yang Feng did not let the Nana fans suck the air-conditioning in vain. He lifted the ball lightly and the football flew up on the spot and over Koscielny's head.
"Yang Feng passed the ball on the spot and went it alone..."
