Chapter 1055: The One Hundred and Sixty-Fourth Palm Ends

"Look at Rong's ball, he jumps really high! It's just a flying Chinese! With Saul Campbell's height, Rong was able to almost half a body taller than him...... Who can defend against such a header? ”

The TV replayed over and over again the glorious header goal.

David Silva's crosses weren't really of high quality, because all his power was spent chasing the ball, and it was already good to be able to kick the ball out before it rolled off the line, and it was impossible to pay attention to the accuracy and curvature of the pass.

Because of the force, the ball flew at a higher altitude.

Such a ball would not have been a perfect cross for a header in the middle.

But even so, Glory still used his super bounce to make the impossible possible again.

There is an angle in the replay footage that restores all the actions of the glory in the entire goal.

While Sneijder was passing the ball to the baseline, Glory was still in the center circle, and then he started and started to accelerate, accelerate, accelerate.

Straight to the goal.

Then, when he stepped on the line of the big forbidden area, he jumped up violently and spread his arms as if he were flying in the air.

What happened next is already known.

"Why is Rong able to jump so high? Because his previous sprint was fast enough! ”

"Know what this header reminds me of? I think of Michael Jordan's perfect dunk in the 1987 NBA dunk contest! "The commentators at ESPN in the United States immediately connected with basketball." This action should be replayed ten times in slow motion, from all different angles, it's a work of art! ”

'I don't think Arsenal would be ashamed if they lost the game in the end, they have nothing to say to be beaten by such a good header!'

"This is Young's 31st league goal of the season! With just over two rounds left in the league, Glory has scored thirty-one goals and is now five goals ahead of second-placed Wayne Rooney! I don't think there's any suspense in the league for the Golden Boot......" said John Mortenson.

The glory after the goal was quickly surrounded by the Manchester City players.

Everyone slapped him on the back excitedly.

In fact, they themselves knew very well that their form was not good, and Manchester City's table in this game was not as good as Arsenal. But they don't want to just lose the game, no one wants to lose. But how to win? They can't help it.

At this time, Glory stood up.

He's always going to save the team at this time.

Such a captain, even if he is usually silent in the locker room, he deserves everyone's trust and respect, not to mention that he is also a good person in the locker room.

Despite his youth, no Manchester City player would pay attention to the authority of his captain's armband.

※※※

When conceding the first goal, Arsene Wenger looked up at the sky. Now conceding the second goal, Wenger lowered his head and looked at the turf beneath his feet without saying a word.

What else can you say in the face of such glory?

He can always win, even if it's not a chance, he can get the football in......

Wenger sighed inwardly.

After losing this game, it's up to Tottenham Hotspur to see the result.

If Tottenham also lose, then Arsenal still have a chance to retain fourth place in the league.

They are playing away from home against Manchester United. With Arsene Wenger's knowledge of both teams, he doesn't think Tottenham have a very good chance of beating Manchester United away.

It's sad to think about it now, Arsenal want to finish fourth in the league and expect their rivals to lose......

※※※

In the end, no matter how hard Arsenal tried, they were unable to beat Manchester City on their home turf. Manchester City, who were in the lead, then played a tight defence, putting all their strength into defence. Rafael Benitez replaced Sturridge and David Silva to leave a legacy in attack.

Just one glory is enough for Arsenal not to dare to press all the way when attacking.

There is no need for additional staffing at all. Others can concentrate on defense.

So despite the ability to put buses in front of the goal, maybe Benitez is not as good as Mourinho, but Manchester City's defense is still good, which is also because they invest more troops in defense.

When the referee blew the full-time whistle, Manchester City beat Arsenal 2-1 away.

They picked up the crucial three points in their quest for the league title.

Chelsea swept past Stoke City 7-0 in the meantime fixture.

But the scoreline was more like Chelsea venting their anger. Nor would such a win help Chelsea to close the slightest distance between them and Manchester City, and it was meaningless.

With two league games remaining, Manchester City are four points clear of Chelsea.

As long as Manchester City beat Aston Villa at home in their next game, they will lift the league trophy one round earlier.

If they lose, or draw, then Chelsea still have a chance to come back against Manchester City in the final round.

※※※

In the league, they are just a stone's throw away from the title, and in the Champions League, they lost 1:3 in the first leg of the semi-finals.

It's clear where City's centre of gravity is.

Both the players and the coaching staff are bound to pay more attention to the league.

So the next game between Manchester City and Inter Milan is actually not so important.

It would be nice if Manchester City could turn Inter Milan around, but if they couldn't, no one would blame City's players for their poor performance.

Because Manchester City's performance in the Champions League this season is enough to make people feel happy.

What they want more now is the league title.

For the first time in 42 years, they have a chance to win the English top flight!

Compared to the Champions League, this is more realistic and easier to get.

And what about the Champions League?

Even if you make it to the finals, you won't be able to win the championship......

In such a situation, perhaps only Glory has not given up.

Speaking to reporters, he said City still have a chance to reverse Inter at home: "We have an away goal, so it's too early to say what the result will be. ”

That's what he said, and that's what he did.

On Wednesday, Manchester City welcomed Inter Milan on their home turf.

Unlike last week, when Manchester City took the bus to Milan for an away game, this time, Inter Milan came by plane, and they didn't have any bumpy journeys.

With Iceland's volcano erupting suspended, the skies over the European continent opened, and civil airlines resuming flights, Inter Milan did not have to endure the same hardships as Manchester City.

From this point of view, it seems that God can no longer look down on Manchester City's dark horse in the Champions League this season.

Otherwise, why didn't the Icelandic volcano erupt sooner rather than later, when Manchester City needed to play away?

In this game, Mourinho lined up Inter Milan's strongest squad in the game.

Manchester City, on the other hand, is still plagued by injuries and suspensions, and the main squad is slightly crippled.

Despite this, after the start of the game, Manchester City still took the initiative in the game under the leadership of Glory.

And in the 34th minute, Glory assisted David Silva to score a goal.

Manchester City took the lead.

“1:0! David Silva! On aggregate, Manchester City is 2:3, only one goal behind! If Manchester City can score another goal to tie the aggregate score at 3:3, then Manchester City have a chance to eliminate Inter Milan! Narrator John Mortenson shouted excitedly, and he seemed to see hope.

"Although the goal was scored by David Silva, the credit goes to Rong, who completely disrupted the Inter defence with a series of outstanding individual performances before passing the ball to David Silva......

David Silva wanted to celebrate after his goal, but as soon as he turned around, he saw that Glory had rushed into the goal, snatched the ball from goalkeeper Giulio Cesar and ran towards the centre circle.

So he stopped celebrating, and ran to the middle circle with Rongguang.

Now we're only one goal behind! With just one more goal, we can knock out Inter Milan and reach the Champions League final!

Although everyone's mind was more or less inclined to the league before the game, if it could really reach the Champions League final, who would refuse?

The Manchester City fans in the stands also sang loudly and cheered on the whole team.

Seeing this, Benitez also temporarily adjusted his strategy, allowing Manchester City to change from defensive counterattacks to attacks.

Although there is also the possibility that Inter Milan may play a counter-attack and concede the goal, it is ...... Manchester City actually have nothing to lose in this game.

Rafa Benitez was ready to give up the Champions League at the outset. So he's in a good state of mind now, and he's very open-minded.

If that would get City to the final, that would be good.

But if he doesn't make the cut, Benitez won't feel like he's losing anything.

However, after Manchester City are attacking with all their might, the goal will not always find them first, and it is possible to concede a goal if it finds them......

This time, Inter Milan used Manchester City's all-out attack to play a classic defensive counter-attack, and then Diego Milito scored a crucial goal!

He rewrote the overall score to 4:2!

Inter Milan continue to lead Manchester City by two goals.

After a brief silence at the Manchester City Stadium, Manchester City fans refueled their squad.

At this time, Manchester City was also more open, simply stopped defending and attacked with all its might.

Anyway, losing two goals is also a loss, losing three goals is still a loss, it's better to fight.

In the face of Manchester City's all-out attack, Mourinho finally had the chance to put his foot forward in front of goal.

He ordered Inter to defend all the way back and hold on to the advantage of the two goals.

And because of Sneijder's absence, Manchester City's ability to play positional battles has dropped a lot. Glory alone has to be both an offensive organizer and an offensive finisher, not to mention that it is very hard, and the effect is not very good.

Sturridge's ability on the front line naturally cannot be compared with the injured Berbatov.

So in fact, Manchester City's attack power is far less powerful than before, which is why Mourinho rushed to shrink the defense at Manchester City's home stadium and let Manchester City besiege.

City laid siege to Inter Milan for most of the game, and it was not until the 88th minute that Glory took advantage of a direct free-kick to score again.

It was Glory's fifteenth goal in this season's Champions League, but it could well be his last......

It was a goal that came a little too late for Manchester City.

City had to score one more goal in the remaining time before they could send the game to extra-time.

But for this exhausted team, even extra time may only be a 30-minute delay.

Although the referee gave Manchester City five minutes of stoppage time, it was much to the displeasure of Inter Milan referee Jose Mourinho.

But that didn't help City get the ball back into the Inter goal in the final minutes.

When the referee blew for the end of the game, the score was fixed at 2:1.

Manchester City were eliminated on aggregate with a score of 3:4......
