The Glory of the Godfather

The visiting team Manchester City's starting list was also played on the big screen of the stadium.

Manchester City lineup (－－):

Goalkeeper:-Shay;

Defensive line:-Richards,-Dunn,-Kolo Toure,-Bridge;

Midfielder:-Wright-Phillips,-Ireland,-Gareth Barry;

Forwards:-Tevez,-Adebayor,-Robinho;

"Compared to Aston Villa, Manchester City can be said to be strong and strong." John Mortensen said.

"The combination of Tevez, Adebayor and Robinho, this is the forward configuration that giants admire. I don't know if Aston Villa's improvised defense can resist it."

"The highlight of this game is the return of former Aston Villa captain Gareth Barry to Villa Park."

When Gareth Barry's name was broadcast on the live broadcast, a harsh boo sounded from the Villa Park stadium.

Although there were also Vera players applauding to express their respect for the former captain, boos dominated the mainstream.

"It's not good." Ellen Donald said to his partners, "Gareth has made a contribution to the team."

Yes, this stubborn fan came to watch the game, but he refused to admit that he had ‘reconciled’ with Fang Jue.

It is worth mentioning that Donald did not come to the stadium to watch the game when the team had four consecutive victories. After the team was unbeatable for three consecutive rounds, he came to the stadium decisively.

In Donald’s words: The team needs him now.

"Come on, Ellen." A little partner retorted, "That means you always think Barry is not wrong, we don't think so."

Since last summer, Gareth Barry has been making a transfer. Although it did not succeed in the end, it was because Liverpool’s offer did not meet the requirements of Aston Villa, and Barry had no choice but to announce his stay and allegiance.

However, this summer, Barry's transfer to Manchester City is not harmonious.

Therefore, most of the fans complain about the former captain.

...

"There should have been one thing to watch in this game, and that was the match between coach Fang Jue and his former disciple Pjanic. However, Pjanic suspended the game and missed the game."

Fang Jue was jealous.

Whether it is Coloture in Manchester City's defense line, or the offensive end of Tevez, Adebayor, Robinho, etc., are the main configuration of the giants.

To be honest, Aston Villa's incomplete formation made Fang Jue feel at a loss.

The current predicament of the team is no longer the decisive role of the head coach's tactics and coaching talent.

Aston Villa's current situation is not so much the impact of injuries and suspensions, as it is the team's thin lineup, especially the lack of thickness of the bench.

To change the thin lineup, you can only wait until the winter break to make targeted supplements.

Of course, the winter break is still early.

Now, the most realistic problem is that Fang Jue is a little flustered. He is not only worried about losing, but also worried that Aston Villa will suffer a disastrous defeat in this game.

As the game started, Manchester City turned away from home and frequently put pressure on Aston Villa's halftime, which made Fang Jue feel more uneasy.

"Sol, ask you a question." Fang Jue said.

"What?" Ceballos asked in surprise.

"If a person has the ability to live better and make the situation better, but because of various concerns..."

"His method is illegal?" Ceballos said.

"Ah, no." Fang Jue shook his head. There has never been a country's laws that cannot be opened with the system.

"So what are you worried about?" Ceballos asked in surprise, "Is that man stupid?"

Fang Jue shut up.

He figured it out.

He decided.

He could not accept being considered a ‘fool’ by honest people like Ceballos.

‘It’s a pity, it’s not seven stars. Fang Jue shook his head. He only has six'Yellow Lucky Balls' and can't collect the'Seven Dragon Balls'. However, six are not bad, six or six are smooth, and six or six Ollie.

In the visiting team coach next door, Manchester City coach Mark Hughes turned his head and said to his assistant, "Tal, I have a hunch that the goal will come soon."

...

"Bang!"

Fang Jue's heart was trembling.

He was shocked with a cold sweat on his back.

This is a pass from Gareth Barry from the left. Adebayor headed a point and followed up with a burst shot by Tevez. The football was slammed by Aston Villa goalkeeper Enke. On the beam.

Cuellar hurriedly removed the football with a big foot.

"I missed someone!"

"What do you think!"

Fang Jue shouted anxiously from the sidelines, Davis had not been able to keep an eye on Tevez just now, giving the Argentine space to shoot.

"Fang Jue is not satisfied with this defense, but, to be honest, the guard's responsibility is not that big." Lineker said, "This is the strength of the star. Tevez didn't stop the ball at all and shot directly in the air. Davis lacks the time to be ready to grab it."

Fang Jue was startled in a cold sweat.

On the Manchester City coaching seat, Mark Hughes waved his hand regretfully. Then, he smiled and did not express any regrets. In Hughes's view, if Manchester City continue to attack like this, the goal will soon be there.

...

"This is—counterattack!" At this moment, John Mortensen yelled.

Just now, Aston Villa's right midfielder Cuellar made a big-foot clearance in front of the goal and opened to the frontcourt.

Yes, this is a clearance ball.

Many people think so.

However, what's so awkward is that the football flew straight forward and flew through halftime, but instead formed a long pass back.

The football is in the air.

Abangraho is trying desperately to catch up.

On the left, Ashley Young was accelerating.

In the middle, Van Nistelrooy is also sprinting.

Quaresma also passed halftime, in the running position, ready to meet.

In fact, due to the shortage of personnel, Aston Villa's midfielder today has no organizers, which makes Aston Villa's midfielder particularly awkward:

Clement and Sidwell, two powerful fighters, form a double midfielder.

The two men rarely participated in the offense.

Their task is to stabilize the midfield defense.

Once there is an opportunity to attack, Ashley Young and Quaresma from the two wings sprint on the two wings.

The front is a combination of Abangraho and Van Nistelrooy.

Strictly speaking, Aston Villa's midfielder is seriously out of touch.

However, this seems to be impossible:

With this configuration, you seem to have no other choice but to kick like this.

...

Closer to home.

Cuellar's backcourt clearance made a wonderful counterattack.

Abangraho is extremely fast.

This is evident from this counterattack.

In fact, he is farther from football than Manchester City defender Coloture.

However, it turned out that Abangraho rushed to the football first, he straightened the football forward, and then accelerated again.

Fortunately, Koroture was prepared for Abangraho's speed. When he saw that he could not catch up to the football first, he was prepared.

Koroture reached out and pulled Abangraho's jersey.

He chose tactical fouls.

Koroture knew that there was left back Bridge who came to fill up behind him, so he would get a yellow card at most. If he is lucky, the referee won't even play a card.

However, unexpected circumstances emerged that Koroture did not expect.

When Abang Raho caught up with the football, he swiped the football and tried to cut inward horizontally.

However, he didn't expect that he would settle down under his feet. He kicked his right foot with his left foot, and he staggered forward on his own.

Just like this, Koroture just stretched out his hand to pull, but he was completely blank.

"I didn't touch him!" Koroture quickly shouted.

What a funny scene: the offensive player falls forward, the defensive player still maintains a hand stretched out to pull, while shouting injustice in his mouth, trying to defend himself, for fear of being wronged.

Fortunately, the referee Atkinson was very close to the scene of the incident. He could see clearly that Abang Raho was doing the calculation at his own feet. Therefore, this is not a foul, nor is it a flop.

...

The game did not stop there.

Before Abang Raho stumbled to the ground, the football was touched by his right foot which he lifted up, and bounced towards the center.

The football just bounced into the penalty area.

In the middle, Van Nistelrooy rushed forward and was about to take a shot against the football.

Then, the Dutch fell directly into the penalty area.

Beside him is the same player who fell to the ground: Manchester City left back Bridge.

"Penalty! Penalty! That guy fouled!" Fang Jue's buttocks were like springs installed, and he burst out, spreading his arms and shouting.

Aston Villa's bench and other people on the coach's bench are also doing the same moves.

On the contrary, there was a protest over Manchester City. They shouted: Flop!

In the stands of the Villa Park Stadium, there was a hustle and bustle. Aston Villa fans shouted: Penalties.

The referee Atkinson's whistle sounded, and he ran into the penalty area and pointed to the penalty spot while running.

At the same time, he gave out his card to Bridge who was still in the penalty area: red!

...

Manchester City's players quit.

Under the leadership of captain Richard Dunn, Manchester City players surrounded the referee and strongly protested. They questioned the penalty.

The Manchester City people think Bridge has never met Van Nistelrooy.

Or, they simply say that the Dutch are diving.

"Bridge didn't meet that guy!"

"That guy is a liar!"

But their doubts or even protests cannot change the current results.

The referee Atkinson's attitude is very clear, this is a foul, there is no problem with penalty kicks and red cards.

The subsequent slow-motion playback showed that Bridge made a sliding shovel in the process of returning to defense. Maybe he saw Van Nistelrooy preparing to shoot, and he was anxious to shovel the football out first. Panicked, shoveled people.

Either way, the result is the same. Bridge did not touch the football, but directly swept Van Nistelrooy to the ground.

...

With a frustrated expression, Bridge walked towards the court.

Van Nistelrooy left with him.

The Dutchman was swept to the ground and felt somewhat unwell. The team doctor wanted to examine him.

Fang Jue also returned to his calmness from the joy of getting a penalty. He began to worry that if Van Nistelrooy was injured, he would really be unavailable. He could only be sent to the youth team’s young player Nathan Delfonte. Or a single arrow lineup for Abangraho.

"It's a dramatic change. Tevez's shot was blocked by the frame. Aston Villa's counterattack. Manchester City's left back Bridge brought Van Nistelrooy to the back of the penalty area. Atkinson put him down. Sent off and called a penalty kick!"

"Only fifteen minutes into the game, Bridge was dismissed by the referee with a red card because of the shovel behind his back, and he also awarded Aston Villa a penalty." Lineker also shook his head, "This unexpected situation, Perhaps it was the turning point of this game. Aston Villa, who was short of soldiers, got a good chance."

"Vera's luck is really good." Tony Parker didn't know what to say, his player was arrogant, but avoided the opponent's tactical foul, and the football just rolled into the penalty area, which made Bridge busy. An error occurred and Van Nistelrooy was brought down in the penalty area:

Penalty and red card!

Let’s not talk about whether a penalty kick can be scored or not, just one less fight so early, which has a great impact on the game.

If one counts Cuellar's clearance ball in his penalty area before turning into a long pass, this... Aston Villa's series of good luck is simply speechless.

At the very least, Manchester City's fans must be stunned.

Mark Hughes, who saw this scene off the court, pressed his lips tightly. He opened his arms and put them down again, seeming to express his incomprehension.

At Aston Villa, the team doctor told Fang Jue that Van Nistelrooy had no problem with his ankle and he could continue the game.

Hearing this good news, Fang Jue could be said to take a breath.

Bridge's flying shovel looked very scary, and the Dutch veteran was not injured, which was very lucky.

Now that Van Nistelrooy is okay, and Manchester City is not only one less person, but also sentenced to a penalty kick, the situation is very favorable for the Aston Villa team.

Sure enough, a person with good looks, capable, humble and pure, has good luck with him.

...

Aston Villa's penalty kick.

Abangraho put the football on the penalty spot, then he backed up and prepared to shoot.

Shay, Manchester City's goalkeeper, stood in front of the goal.

The camera gave two close-ups.

Abangraho looked solemn and even a little nervous, which made Aston Villa's fans also nervous.

At this moment, the Manchester City people are still expecting a certain amount. Penalties are not a 100% goal rate, not to mention their goalkeeper is Shay, an experienced veteran goalkeeper who is known for his stability~www.ltnovel.com~now. Shay began his Premier League career in Blackburn when he was in the year.

He has played for Blackburn, Celtics, Sunderland and Newcastle successively. He has nearly 400 Premier League games experience. He has also played for the Irish national team and is the most stable goalkeeper in Newcastle in recent years.

Before Manchester United was distressed to find Schmeichel's successor, and Van der Sar had not yet joined the window, there was also news that Ferguson was interested in acquiring Shay.

This is a goalkeeper who can give Manchester City fans a certain amount of fantasy space.

But soon, looking a little nervous, Abang Raho, who is not so reassuring, pierced the hope and fantasy of the Manchester City.

The referee's whistle sounded.

Abang Raho runs up and takes a shot.

He deceived the goalkeeper Given and steadily scored the football penalty into the net.
