Chapter 542: Ten consecutive wins at the beginning
Back in the league, Manchester City are at their best, and at home stadium, and the whole city don't think Wolves can pose any threat to themselves.
Indeed, just three minutes into the game, City broke the deadlock when Richards' breakaway cross from the right was cleared and City were awarded a corner.
Silva then drove the ball into the Wolves box and was cleared by Wolves captain Roger Johnson, but the ball fell in front of Li Feng on the left side of the penalty area.
"GOAL~~~ It's three minutes again, and it's wind, a volley on the left side of the big penalty area, a header "pass" from Wolves captain Roger Johnson, the wind smiled and gave a big gift, and Manchester City took the lead 1:0. ”
"This is also the wind's eleventh goal in the league, oh oh~~~ I read it right, this is his eleventh goal in the league, and now it's only the tenth round of the league, when will the wind catch up, aren't the top scorers Rooney and Aguero?" It turned out that unconsciously, Li Feng had surpassed Rooney and Aguero, who were the top scorers in the list.
"God, what kind of monster did Manchester City buy, ten rounds of league games, Manchester City completed 40 goals in one game, an average of 4 per game, of which 27 are directly related to the trend, 11 league goals, plus 16 assists, this ~~~ This ~~~ This is crazy" The commentator forgot a point, the tenth round of the league has just begun.
Wolves' first shot came in the 10th minute, from near Doyle's penalty spot, and it was wing-back Hunter who met Thierry's pass and broke through Richards' cross.
The game was then taken over by Manchester City again, with Silva and Sergio Aguero linking up in a spectacular succession, starting from near the centre circle and tearing through the Wolves defence. It was Silva who made the final kick and was saved by Hennessey.
Three minutes later, Richards almost played a one-stop service, Li Feng split the flank, Richards slipped through two defenders in a row, and filled the box. It's just that his shot missed the crosshairs a little bit and missed the goal.
In the nineteenth minute, Dzeko completed a cushion shot, Li Feng unexpectedly hoisted the ball into the penalty area forty meters from the goal, and Dzeko carried the Wolves captain to shoot high.
God seems to have thought City have been going too well lately, so he decided to put a little obstacle on the side of the game and played in the 25th minute.
Wolves hit back with Gediula striking from 35 spots in the box, but Joe Hart was well focused. Leap to block the ball.
However, the blocked ball still fell into the Manchester City penalty area, Doyle, another Wolves striker rushed to the ball, and Kompany saw this and made a direct behind-the-back tackle.
Kompany was a bit reckless in this action, but it is understandable that sometimes the judgment made on the court is actually a subconscious act. It doesn't mean that the players really want to do that.
Not surprisingly, referee Atwell pulled out a red card directly to the Manchester City captain. A penalty was awarded to Wolves, and City were in trouble.
With one man missing, the score was pursued again, and Hunt made it 1-1 for Wolves, which also gave Wolves hope. It was City's first defeat of the season and ended City's nine-game winning streak in the opening round.
However, City's next substitution made the Wolves manager frown, as Van Basten did not replace the striker but Yaya Toure in midfield, and the player was replaced by centre-back Lescott.
It's a bit too crazy. Van Basten is still thinking about attacking, but it can also be seen that Van Basten has faith in Li Feng, and he believes that Li Feng can support Manchester City's midfield.
Will Li Feng disappoint Van Basten? Of course not, after the game restarted, Li Feng rushed into the hinterland of Wolves with the ball, and Henry and O'Hara couldn't stop Li Feng at all.
Holding the ball to the outside of the penalty area, Aguero on the right raised his hand to request, Li Feng made a diagonal pass, and the Argentine striker got the ball and shook the defender in front of him to hit the goal.
Wolves attacked, but after Thierry Henry crossed the halfway line with the ball and was cut off by Frenkie de Jong, City turned to attack, and this time, Silva and Li Feng collided against the wall.
Dzeko's non-stop running in the box, pulling the Wolves defence, eventually created a great chance for Silva, with Dzeko pulling two centre-backs to the right.
Silva passed the ball to Li Feng and rushed into the box, and at the same time, Li Feng, who was holding the ball, also rushed into the box, but this time he did not choose to shoot himself, but attracted the last defender of the Wolves team and passed it back to Silva.
"GOAL~~~2:1, in the absence of one person, Manchester City took the lead again, the tacit cooperation of the wind, Silva, and Dzeko tore apart the Wolves defense, the wind sent a fatal pass, and Silva easily pushed the goal through the unguarded situation on the left side, and Manchester City took the lead again."
It was the final score of the first half, and although Wolves launched a frantic comeback after the restart, they were never able to pry back the Manchester City goal.
Even in stoppage time, Manchester City almost rewrote the score again, Manchester City's wave of counterattacks, Li Feng's long pass, Dzeko's big penalty area shot, Hennessey reacted a step slower, but the ball finally hit the post, and Wolves escaped with death.
Neither side made any changes at half-time, but the situation on the pitch changed again as City scored again.
Li Feng passed to Silva diagonally, who crossed the middle and passed to Aguero, the Argentine striker rushed into the penalty area, and in the middle of the cross between the two Wolves defenders, Dzeko almost pushed the empty goal from the back of the small penalty area to rewrite the score to 3:1.
"Efficiency~~~ This is efficiency, this is the gap between the players' abilities, although the Wolves have an advantage in numbers, but the gap between the players' ability and efficiency cannot be estimated, and the 10-man Manchester City is 3:1 ahead of the 11-man Wolves."
But City's goal wasn't over and the 3-1 score wasn't the final score of the game, and Wolves' faith and morale had begun to falter after City scored their third goal.
However, when Manchester City completed the fourth goal, Wolves completely disarmed the header, and in the 63rd minute of the game, this time the goal was replaced by Li Feng.
Klich cut in from behind, Silva crossed the box and received a pass from Klicy, the Manchester City winger shot directly with his feet, Hennessey saved, Li Feng reacted quickly, and slid before Wolves let go of the player to complete the second goal of the game.
In the end, Manchester City beat Wolves 4-1 at the Etihad Stadium without one man to make it ten wins in a row, just one game away from Tottenham's opening 11 consecutive wins.
And Manchester City's opponents in the next round are not a strong team, Queens Park Rangers, and it is predictable that there is basically no problem in equaling Tottenham's opening 11 consecutive wins. (To be continued.) )
