The trip to Liverpool was terrible, not only being knocked out of the Carabao Cup by Liverpool, but also losing to Liverpool's other team, Everton, in the league.

In the previous four seasons, Manchester City's record against Everton was not satisfactory, counting this season has been five seasons, and Manchester City have won only two of the ten league meetings.

Perhaps the last-minute stoppage time in the last round of the league was too damaging for character, and in this game, Manchester City can be said to have the advantage from start to finish, but they just can't break the deadlock.

Throughout the first half, Manchester City created a total of three great chances, three great chances, not ordinary shooting opportunities, you can imagine how unlucky Manchester City were.

In the game against Everton, captain Vincent Kompany ended his red card suspension, and the Premier League's red card suspension was for all domestic competitions, which may have been considered a kind of luck, after Balotelli was suspended in the league and happened to encounter a cup game.

However, Vincent Kompany's dismissal did not bring him and City good luck, and in the 10th minute of the game, City created the first great chance, and it was captain Kompany who had the chance to open the scoring.

Silva's long-range shot was saved by Howard and City were awarded a penalty and then disalted, with Lescott on top of the first point, but Lescot didn't have a chance to find the back of the net, so it was a header.

The real killer was on Dzeko, but Dzeko's header was too positive, and it was directly blocked by the goalkeeper, and the ball just fell at the feet of Kompany.

At this moment, because of Dzeko's attack just now, Everton's defensive attention was all on Dzeko, so when the ball bounced back, Kompany was almost unguarded.

Kompany stretched out a foot and paddled the ball back to the goal, and although Howard reacted quickly, he was still a little unprepared, jumping low in a hurry, but he didn't hook the ball.

However, just when Everton were in despair, the crossbar saved their own team, and the ball eventually hit the crossbar before bouncing down just on the goal line and was cleared by Baines.

In the 23rd minute, Manchester City ushered in a second great chance, after the Everton result failed, Manchester City launched a quick counterattack, Li Feng played a long pass to Dzeko in the backfield, the latter's header rubbed back, and Aguero successfully won a single knife against offside.

Unfortunately, Aguero did not grasp this one-on-one knife, facing the attacking Howard, Aguero pushed the ball into the far corner, and the ball finally grazed the post and flew off the bottom line.

In the 40th minute of the first half, there was a laughable scene on the pitch when an Everton fan stormed the pitch and then handcuffed himself against the Manchester City goal.

When the Everton fan first stormed, Joe Hart thought he was coming for him, after all, he had made a lot of saves since the opening kick-off, but only to end up with himself cuffed to the post.

For this reason, the game had to be stopped, and then the police in charge of the security of the stadium ran in, and the two managers took the opportunity to call the players to their side to set up a new tactic.

A few minutes later, the fan was finally taken out of Joe Hart's territory by six England police officers, who were said to have done this irrational thing because his girlfriend had broken up with him and his house was about to be demolished.

City's third great chance came after the fan incident, when the City striker put on a god pattern, he played a beautiful cross in the box against three Everton defenders, but the unguarded Dzeko couldn't keep up, and perhaps he didn't expect Aguero to send the ball out of the box with almost no angle under the three.

The only goal of the game came in the 50th minute of the second half, and the scorer was scored by Manchester City veteran Robson Gibson, a discarded player from Manchester United.

As for Gibson, Li Feng played against him as early as Bayern Munich, and because he was an Irishman and played in the same position, Gibson was once considered by the so-called expert media and fans to be the successor to Manchester United captain Roy Keane.

Unfortunately, the Roy Keane successor did not grow as expected, and Gibson was dumped by Manchester United to Everton this winter for just £1 million.

Gibson once again proved with facts that there are so many talented giants, but there are very few who can really play, not to mention, now that utilitarian football is prevalent, as long as the giants have money, what kind of players can't be bought.

However, the abandoned player, who had just been dumped by Manchester United to Everton, gave his former club a big gift with a goal, turning the original 8-point difference back to 5 points.

Barry's pass was cut off by Fellaini and Everton launched a quick counter-attack, with Drenthe running after receiving Fellaini's pass before being caught by Richards and De Jong at the back of the field.

Then Drenthe crossed diagonally, Baines cut in from behind, sent a cross from the bottom line, and under the attack of Kompany and Lescott, Cahill unbelievably grabbed the header, rubbed it back, and landed at the feet of Donovan.

Unfortunately, Donovan didn't control the ball with his first kick, but Donovan was not greedy, but passed back to Gibson outside the box, who sparked his foot near the top of the arc and the ball rushed towards the Manchester City goal.

In the following period, Van Basten continued to transfer troops, replacing Balotelli, Adam Johnson and Minard three players successively.

Moyes didn't sit still, rushing to the sidelines to direct his players and devise new tactics, even killing time in exchange for them

In the end, with Gibson's long-range shot, Everton won Manchester City at home, which not only gave Manchester City its second defeat this season, but also completely confirmed the name of Manchester City's nemesis.

As for Gibson, he naturally became the focus after the game, and even many media couldn't help but joke that Gibson's role in Everton is far greater than that in Manchester United, and if Manchester United finally succeeds in the reversal, Gibson is undoubtedly a big contributor to Manchester United.

There are also media outlets who praise Manchester United and Alex Ferguson for making another good deal, not only earning a million pounds, but also sending a defeat to Manchester City. With Manchester City's defeat, Manchester United finally chased the difference of 8 points to 5 points.

Even Ferguson couldn't help but praise Gibson in an interview: "I always knew that Daaron was a good player, leaving Manchester United was a new beginning, and from his goals in the game, it can be seen that Daaron has adapted very well, here, I want to wish Daron and hope that he can keep improving, so that he must have a brilliant career in the future." ”

In fact, few people believe Ferguson's words, otherwise Gibson would not have left Manchester United, and he would not have been worth a pitiful million pounds. (To be continued.) )
