Chapter 1106: Revenge is only half the story

Zlatan Ibrahimovic's goal essentially sealed the end of the game, although there were about five or six minutes of stoppage time left.

But City are already two goals ahead and it is impossible for Inter to score twice in a row without conceding in the remaining minutes.

The key is not to concede a goal.

It's not like they haven't scored two goals in a row, but they don't concede a goal when they score two goals in a row, and they don't have that in the face of an opponent like Manchester City.

In the next game, Benitez used up the last substitution in his hand, replacing Ibrahimovic with Godin.

Ibrahimovic had a goal and he didn't have to be too depressed when he came off the pitch. If he had been replaced before he had scored, Ibrahimovic would have been very upset and he would have put it straight in his face.

Now......

Ibrahimovic's expression was normal when he came off the pitch.

After replacing Godin, Manchester City has three people in the central defender position, and the striker is completely gone, so Glory is at the front, but Glory is a striker, not a center forward.

The current Manchester City is also playing a no-striker tactic.

But Inter Milan did not dare to underestimate Manchester City without a striker...... Manchester City without strikers are worse than they are with strikers.

The next few minutes were nothing short of torment for the Inter fans in the stands, and the game could not end early, they could only watch Inter Milan want to attack but did not dare to attack, and the glory continued to harass the situation at the back.

It's like knowing that Inter Milan will die, but you can't do anything, you can't do anything, you can only watch Inter Milan's blood flow little by little, and finally it will be clean, and people will die.

When the referee blew the whistle at the end of the game, it sounded to them!

For the first time, they wanted the game to end early when they were down by the scoreline......

Otherwise they could have conceded more goals.

"It's over! Manchester City beat Inter Milan 3-1 away! They have completed their revenge on last season! ”

"Actually, you can't say that Inter didn't play well, they played well for most of the game and there was no problem tactically. On the contrary, Manchester City's table is not particularly convincing. But it can't be helped, who makes Manchester City proud? It's not an advantageous situation, as long as you have glory, it can be converted into a winning situation for you in the end......"

"It was Rong who equalised with a solo performance when Manchester City couldn't open the game, it was Rong who gave the team the lead when the team was in a stalemate, or Rong assisted Ibrahimovic in the last minute to seal the win! The best player of the game is Rong! He completely dominated the game! ”

At the end of the game, commentators from all over the world gave their praises to Glory.

In this game, Manchester City's glory and lack of glory are definitely two results, and there is no suspense.

With glory they can get revenge, without glory, even with Ibrahimovic they may still be beaten.

Therefore, the footage of the post-game TV broadcast is firmly following the glory, and he is given the most close-ups, which also means that he is the best in the game.

Rong Guang is indeed the best in the game, when he was interviewed in the mixed area after the game, a reporter asked him: "Beat Inter Milan away, congratulations on your successful revenge, Rong ......"

But Rongguang shook his head: "No, there is still one more game." ”

If he let the fans of Inter Milan hear this, they will probably die.

Glory is clearly not content to beat Inter Milan on the road...... He wasn't content to beat Inter Milan just once.

Inter Milan fans will definitely be aggrieved at this time - damn it! Last season we only won 3-1 at home, didn't we lose to you at home? Now that you're winning 3:1 at our home stadium, even if we're tied, why do we have another game?!

Glory's idea is that even if they win away from home, if they return to their home stadium and let Inter Milan win back, it will be considered a failure of revenge.

If you want revenge, you have to be thorough.

So you have to win away from home, and even more so when you come back home!

After the game, Inter fans took out their frustration with the loss on head coach Leonardo.

They didn't like Leonardo too much as the manager, after all, he used to be a famous AC Milan legend, played for AC Milan for many years, and also worked for AC Milan for many years, and finally became the head coach of AC Milan.

Such a person who is branded with AC Milan all over his body, even if he is now the manager of Inter Milan, it is impossible to gain the trust of Inter Milan fans. It's okay if it's okay, but if something happens, everyone will definitely be angry with Leonardo.

After the game, some fans claimed that if Mourinho was there, even if the glory was good, Inter Milan could still win Manchester City at their home stadium!

They have such an almost superstitious trust in Mourinho.

And for any successor to Mourinho, it must be scanned with a scrutinizing eye, and it is a must to compare it with Mourinho.

It's not just the fans who do it, the media does it too.

Leona has been in charge for so long that the media has done several special features such as "Comparison of Mourinho's coaching results in the same period".

With such a situation, it is somewhat understandable why Leonardo is holding back his energy to beat Manchester City in this game and make everyone forget about Jose Mourinho.

It's just a pity...... He didn't make it.

Or rather, he chose the wrong opponent.

After the Champions League fixture, Manchester City returned to Manchester with their league opponents Arsenal.

Another fierce rival.

Although Manchester City has always won more than lost against Arsenal in the first two seasons, Benitez does not dare to take it lightly.

The Premier League is the most competitive football league in the world, not to mention Arsenal, just to say that in the last round, promoted horses like Blackpool have created huge problems for Manchester City, if it were not for the goals of Glory and Ibrahimovic, Manchester City would have lost to each other on the road.

Even Blackpool can threaten Manchester City, let alone Arsenal.

Despite having just finished this game against Inter Milan, Benitez does not intend to rotate for this game, and he has completely retained his starting line-up in midweek to play Arsenal.

All the main players are on the scene.

It's about making sure we win Arsenal at home.

After eight league games, Manchester City are on 20 points from their unbeaten run of five wins and two draws, and are now top of the table, one point ahead of Chelsea after Chelsea were held to a draw away by Aston Villa in the last round of the league.

However, the first place in this league is unstable, and if Manchester City is forced to draw at home by Arsenal in this game, or beat, the first place in the league that has just arrived and has not yet covered the heat will have to be lost.

Chelsea's game is the second of the league round, while Manchester City's match against Arsenal is the last. They were done before City came on and sure enough, Chelsea beat Wolves 2-0 at home.

One more game to temporarily return to the top of the league.

If Manchester City are held to a draw, they will be in second place with 21 points.

After eight league games, Arsenal are third with 14 points and they need a win in need of a win.

Because they are 14 points with Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur.

It's easy to go from third to fifth in the league.

Against Arsenal, Manchester City played what they do best – defending and counter-attacking. Arsenal played what they do best, attacking football, relying on control and quick passing between small teams to tear apart City's defence.

The two sides played inextricably and everyone played in the Champions League in midweek, so in terms of fitness, neither was much better than the other.

As a result, City got off to a poor start, with centre-back Vincent Kompany being sent off for a flying tackle on Nasri in the box just five minutes into the game, and Arsenal were given a penalty.

"Penalty! Arsenal have a fantastic start! Manchester City, on the other hand, have one less man to play for the remaining 85 minutes of the game! ”

Nasri came up with a football in his arms to take the penalty, and the City fans in the stands booed loudly, hoping to distract him.

To no avail, Nasri calmly slotted the spot-kick into Joe Hart's goal.

"The ball is in! Arsenal lead Manchester City 1-0 away!! ”

Nasri and Arsenal players hugged each other excitedly after the goal and celebrated the goal.

They are full of confidence for the next game.

The score is ahead, and there is also one more number than Manchester City.

In Arsenal's style, as long as you keep the football firmly at your feet, isn't that still leading Manchester City's nose?

Arsene Wenger, who was on the sidelines, was also excited.

In these two seasons, I have played Manchester City so many times, and this time I finally have good luck!

The next thing is not to worry, Arsenal cannot afford to score another goal in a short period of time after scoring a goal.

This may be normal for other teams, but here at Manchester City, it doesn't work.

Because they have a glory that is almost unaffected by the goals they concede or not.

When you're attacking aggressively and trying to extend your lead quickly, Glory is always aiming for the void in your backline, and if you're not careful, he could take advantage of the opportunity to score.

Having played against Glory so many times, Arsene Wenger already knows Glory well and will always stab you in the heart when you let your guard down.

For such people, it is absolutely not to be taken lightly.

So he quickly gave instructions to his players not to rush into attack after taking the lead, but to play at the same pace as before, to keep the football at their feet, to move City's backline with passes and runs, to push slowly and look for opportunities.

If you don't have a good chance, don't blindly send a through ball, which can easily be broken, and then let City play a counter-attack.
