Deportivo won their third victory in the group stage, and they also took the lead in qualifying from the group with 11 points.
The Manchester City players who only scored five points are very frustrated. If nothing happens, they will bid farewell to the Champions League this season and can only play in the Europa League.
But a few minutes later, when the final score of another game that started at the same time came in, Manchester City fans were ecstatic!
At the Parc des Princes in Paris, they unexpectedly lost to Bayer Leverkusen!
Especially in the last minute, they were defeated by their opponents and lost 1-2!
As a result, with one round left, the situation in Group A actually became more chaotic.
Depor, Paris, Manchester City and Leverkusen have 11 points, 7 points, 5 points and 4 points respectively.
Except for Deportivo who has already appeared in advance and secured the first place in the group, in the last game, the remaining three teams are all likely to appear.
In the final round of the Champions League group stage, Depor will play Paris at home and Manchester City will play Leverkusen at home.
For the other three teams, it is definitely a life and death battle.
But before this game, the English media jumped out to provoke.
The most gossipy "Sun" has a conspiracy theory: "Yun Sheng once coached in Ligue 1, he will definitely let the game go! After all, as long as Paris wins, or Paris gets a draw, they can qualify in the group . Nine times out of ten, Yunsheng will send young players to kill the game and give their opponents a favor."
"Manchester Evening News" also expressed concern about this game: "Yunsheng has good relations with many Premier League teams. The best ones are Arsenal and Manchester United. Wenger and Ferguson are looking for Yunsheng to hire people." At that time, Yunsheng basically let him go directly, which was very generous. But because of this, he might consider his relationship with Manchester United and give Paris a hand, so that he can eliminate Manchester City and make Manchester United laugh. "
The Times, the three major media outlets in England, were a little gentler, but they also expressed concerns about the fairness of the game: "In fact, even if Yunsheng sends an entire youth team to play in Paris, there will be no problem. After all, Depor has qualified early. , and they are still first in the group, it doesn’t matter how they play the last game, and there is no reason to say that they are just giving points to Paris.”
The English media lamented, but the French media rejoiced.
L'Equipe, the leader, has already celebrated Paris' qualifying for the group in advance: "Although Paris lost unexpectedly in the last game, if nothing else happens, they should be able to win against Deportivo who has already appeared in advance. They can think about it in advance. It’s about the knockout rounds.”
"Le Parisien" was even more confident: "In the second round of the group stage, Depor played all the main players, and it was only a tie with Paris. After all, Depor had to preserve its strength for the sake of the league, so its strength It will definitely be damaged. Even if we beat Deportivo in Paris, we won by strength, and it was definitely not the so-called opponent's handicap."
Seeing these remarks, Yun Sheng was a little annoyed.
Before this game, Yun Sheng originally planned to let young people play to gain experience, but he did not expect that many outside media had bad intentions, which annoyed Yun Sheng. Especially media like Le Parisien made Yun Sheng very unhappy.
From what you say, even if we fight with all our main forces, you will still win? Where do you get so much confidence?
In this case, let's compete and see who is stronger!
At the Riazor Stadium on December 11, Yunsheng faced the challenge of Paris.
Naturally, Paris will play with all their main players in this game. The defending French Ligue 1 champions are a piece of cake for them, so they have hoarded most of their main players so that they can play this game with optimal physical fitness and condition.
On Depor's side, as expected by many media, Yunsheng did not field the full lineup.
He used his own B lineup, 4-3-2-1 formation: goalkeeper Alan Subbia, defenders from left to right are Felipe, Koulibaly, Albiol and Miranda, the three central From left to right on the field are Cai Huikang, Pogba and De Bruyne, the two shadow forwards are Ronaldo and Carrasco, and the center Lukaku.
This lineup is dominated by young people, especially in the midfield and frontcourt. The average age is not even more than 22 years old. It is definitely a youth army. After seeing this lineup before the game, the French media was even more excited, thinking that Paris had a chance to win.
However, as Spanish media who are very familiar with Depor, they are more optimistic about Depor.
"World Sports News": "This lineup is extremely talented, definitely not inferior to Paris!"
"Marca": "I predict that even if it is difficult for Depor to win today, at least they will not lose!"
In the locker room before the game, Yun Sheng told all the young players: "You can play whatever you want in this game!"
"Just play?" The players were stunned.
Has the boss really given up on this game?
Yun Sheng smiled confidently: "Play whatever you want - as long as you can win. Go ahead and give full play to your talent and talent on the stage of the Champions League."
One team is a European upstart with super offensive strength and is bound to win, and the other team is a talented, free-spirited young guard. This game is interesting.
From the first minute, Paris took control of the situation.
Their attack in the midfield and frontcourt was very smooth, and the Depor fans in the stands even had the illusion that the opposite team was Real Madrid-the offense was crisp and clean.
Especially the front three of Ibrahimovic, Cavani and Lavezzi, these three have different skills. Lavezzi is fast and good at dribbling, Cavani is the top center in international football today with strong impact, and Ibrahimovic is the spiritual leader of this team and is full of domineering power.
Compared with this lineup and today's Deportivo, even Yun Sheng has to admit that Depor's paper strength is indeed weaker.
In the 26th minute of the game, Paris finally scored.
This time, after Lavezzi broke through from the wing, he accurately passed the ball low and found Cavani.
Cavani eats Albiol alive and shoots from close range in front of the goal. Alan Subia has no reaction at all!
1 to 0! Paris scored first!
Ten minutes later, this time Cavani received a direct pass from Motta. He was pressed by Koulibaly. Although he could turn around and shoot, he was not very sure. In the end, he chose to knock back outside the penalty area.
Ibrahimovic catches the ball steadily! Digging the ball horizontally, Pogba missed!
Cai Huikang didn't get any advantage from the diagonal kick!
He took two steps and volleyed hard from the penalty area! The ball went straight into the lower right corner of the goal!
The ball went in!
2 to 0! Paris has two goals in hand and victory is in sight!
The away team fans in the stands cheered and applauded excitedly. They had already begun to celebrate in advance that the team had qualified for the group stage.
In the adjacent stands, Paris fans even waved to Depor fans with smiles on their faces, thanking them for playing such a loose game.
But what Yun Sheng did next left the fans at the scene stunned...
