Chapter 571: The group qualified
The attacks of the two teams fell into a strange circle, each other's attacks were quite fierce, almost never stopped, you went back and forth, but there was no goal.
Although he didn't score, the fans enjoyed watching it, because such an attack was likely to score in the next second, so when the fans looked back, the time had entered the last ten minutes.
In the 80th minute, Napoli won a one-on-one knife, Ravic and Cavani pulled out of the penalty area at the same time, Maggio cut in at high speed, Ravic sent a through ball, and the former got a single knife.
However, Maggio was too greedy, and in the face of Joe Hart's attack, he actually wanted to shake Joe Hart and shoot an empty goal, but was stopped by Joe Hart bravely, and Napoli missed the opportunity to expand the game.
Missing such an opportunity is often punished, this situation often occurs in football matches, and even Li Feng has encountered it several times, his team created a good opportunity, but did not take it, and then the opponent scored, but this time it was the other way around.
Kolarov held the ball and was intercepted by Maggio when he crossed the halfway line, Silva retreated slightly and took two steps to respond, and Gargano immediately pulled the side to help the defense.
Campagnaro immediately stepped forward to cover the ball and did not give Silva any chance to break through, but the Spanish winger did not need to break through himself, and with a cross, the ball flew past Gargano, and Li Feng stretched out his foot to control the ball.
Although Inle immediately rushed towards Li Feng, his movements were obviously a step slower, not to mention that in the face of Li Feng, one step was slow, one step was slow, and Li Feng exploded at an accelerated pace and directly threw off Inle.
Three defenders, there are still three in the Napoli backline, Dosena retreats, Aronica moves sideways to defend Dzeko, and it is the Napoli captain who rushes up to intercept Li Feng, Cannavaro Jr.
Control the ball, turn, pull with the left foot, 180 turn, push with the right foot, on the line of the big penalty area, Li Feng used a Marseille maneuver to cross the Napoli captain.
At the moment when Li Feng crossed over, Cannavaro subconsciously stretched out his hand and wanted to hold Li Feng, but unfortunately, Li Feng's strength and speed were too outstanding, and Cannavaro stretched out his hand to pounce in the air.
Bursting into the penalty area, Napoli goalkeeper De Sanctis immediately rushed out, and Aronica simultaneously moved two steps to the left at the same time to reduce the angle of Li Feng's shot as much as possible.
However, Li Feng is not Minaar, Li Feng was originally preparing to complete the shot by himself, Aronica's behavior could not escape Li Feng's eyes, and on the right side, Dzeko and Balotelli immediately made a cross switch.
Dosena was originally defending Balotelli, but when he saw Aronica moving horizontally, he also followed the horizontal movement, and then Dzeko and Balotelli crossed and switched positions, throwing Dossena's judgment around, causing him to move a few steps directly with Dzeko.
It's too late, it's fast, the opportunity is in that moment, maybe ordinary people can't grasp such an opportunity at all, but they are not in this ordinary person's horizontal line, a horizontal pass, Aronica immediately raised his foot to intercept, but did not touch the ball.
"GOAL~~~~ The goal was scored, Manchester City equalized, the eighty-third minute of the game, this was a quasi-stunner, the wind ~~~ wind ~~~ wind, the wind assisted, Balotelli pushed the empty goal, although the ball was scored by Balotelli, but ninety percent of the credit is on the wind."
"It's unbelievable that in the penalty area, in the face of such an opportunity, the wind can still be so calm, and even fully aware of the changes in the entire Napoli defence, and make the most reasonable choice, is God in the sky directing the wind how to play?" The whole world was shocked when it came to seeing the slow motion.
"Marco~~~Marco~~~ The wind is a genius~~~~~No, the wind is not a genius, even if it is a genius, it is difficult to describe the talent and ability of the wind, he is a pervert, he is not like a person at all" Kidd hugged Van Basten excitedly, because he knew that as long as the score was maintained, then Manchester City would qualify for the group one round earlier.
Unlike Manchester City's cheers, the Napoli bench was unusually quiet, even a little depressing, and the situation on the pitch was similar, even for the fans.
At the moment, at the St Paul's Stadium, only England are celebrating, only Manchester City's fans and players are cheering, and of course, the game is not over, as long as the game is not over, anything can happen.
So after a short silence, Napoli did their best to cheer for their team, and on the sidelines, Mazzari once again stepped up and ordered a new tactic.
On the field, the Napoli players gradually recovered, and at the same time, Mazzari made the first substitution of the game, Pandev came on, replaced Gargano, and changed the formation to a more frantic 334, Mazzari was ready to make a last stand.
Van Basten also immediately made adjustments, using up the last substitution, De Jong replaced Dzeko, changed the formation 451, Balotelli rushed forward, Silva waited for the opportunity behind him, Li Feng in the middle, Yaya Toure, De Jong, Minal four.
In the final minutes, the two sides continued to play fiercely, with Napoli launching a frantic press and attack, and Manchester City desperately defending and counter-attacking, for which Kolarov also paid the price of a yellow card.
There was a threat from both sides, with Pandev's cross from the flank, Cavani's header back, Hamsik sending in a through ball and Ravic slashing in to make it completely empty, but the Argentine was destined to run out of luck today, firing into the near corner, only to hit the side-netting.
In stoppage time, Li Feng played a long pass from the back, and Silva got the ball past two Napoli defenders in succession, and then collided with Balotelli to burst into the box, but the final shot was saved by the brave De Sanctis.
When Slovenian referee Skomeina blew the whistle for the end of the match, the stadium began to sink into polarity as thousands of Manchester City fans began cheering loudly in celebration of their team's group progression.
And tens of thousands of Napoli fans were silent, looking at the score on the scorer with a look of loss, looking at the players who were also lost on the stadium at the moment.
After 20 years of Champions League journey, Napoli is not good, because they have not qualified from the group, although there is one last game next, but it is completely meaningless for Napoli at the moment.
Because on the other side, Bayern Munich have secured Napoli's path to the UEFA Cup with a 3-1 victory, so the last Napoli will belong to them regardless of where they go, and the third place in the group will belong to them.
However, the Napoli players had done their best, and in the end, the São Paulo stadium still burst into applause, although the applause was bitter, but it was indeed the best comfort for the players who worked hard.
"Dude~~~ Let's swap jerseys" Li Feng took the initiative to find Hamsik, if Li Feng was an ordinary person, the star would be completely desired and unattainable for him, but now they are all different, he is a professional player, and has been mixing in the professional stadium for several years, in football, he has his own pride.
"Good luck with you" took off their jerseys and hugged each other as Hamsik sent his best wishes. (To be continued.) )
