Chapter 1023(1/2)
The injury time for the first half was one minute.
Referee Oliver is already looking at the watch, and he may blew the whistle to the end of the first half at any time.
David Silva was dribbling the ball, and he looked at the situation in Aston Villa's penalty area, and it was full of people.
David Silva pulled the football horizontally, and Modric came to interfere with him.
Silva knocked the football across.
Yaya Toure took the ball, and he seemed ready to take a long shot.
Seeing that Yaya Toure was about to shoot a long shot, Clement threw Navas down and rushed up to try to block the long shot with his body.
Clement knew that as long as the long shot was blocked out, the whistle at the end of the first half would sound.
Yaya Toure shot from a long time, and the football was blocked by Clement's back. The football bounced up, but it fell to Fernandinho's feet by a stranger.
Fernandinho made a low shot directly.
Ter Stegen was shaken by Yaya Toure's long shot just now. When he saw Fernandinho's shot again, he was shocked and quickly fell to the ground and rushed to the side.

Ter Stegen was unable to make the ball.
However, the ball did not score.
"The pillar blocks the football!" Birmingham commentator shouted in surprise.
Just before Aston Villa's players had time to breathe a sigh of relief, the football hit the post and rebounded in front of the goal.
Aguero, who was fast and more flexible, rushed forward with a tall and big horse, and directly shot with one shot.
"Aguelo thrust his feet and shot angrily!"
"Gooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!"
"The ball is in! Aguero! He shot the football into the net! In the injury stoppage time of the first half, Manchester City scored! They were attacking the entire first half and looking for goals. Now, their efforts have finally paid off!"
After scoring the goal, Aguero was very excited. He fisted excitedly and ran to celebrate.
Manchester City teammates rushed up and hugged the excited Aguero, shouted and roared with him, venting the depression of the whole first half.
...
Manchester City's head coach Pellegrini rushed out of the coach's seat and excitedly slapped his fist to celebrate the goal.
In the stands of the visiting team fans, Manchester City fans also swung their fists, shouted, and hugged each other. They were also frustrated for the half-time game. Now this goal can finally vent some of the depression and frustration in their hearts.
The goal was conceded in the last minute of the first half, and Aston Villa was a little depressed.
Fang Jue was also a little angry. When 2 to 0, he sat firmly on Diaoyutai and was in a happy mood.
Now, the goal was conceded at the last moment of the first half.
The situation of leading by 2-0 and leading by 2-1 are completely different.
The former can make Aston Villa play more calmly and easily, while the latter has a more direct sense of urgency.
It was so depressing to lose the ball at the last moment.
Fang Jue shook his head depressedly, turned his head to complain to his assistant, "Pellegrini is so lucky."
Manchester City's goal was indeed a bit of luck. Clement blocked Yayatoole's shot, and the football rebounded to the unguarded Fernandinho's feet. After the goal post blocked the goal, it actually landed at Aguero's feet again.
Manchester City people are really lucky, as if they can't go without scoring the ball.
Of course, Manchester City people wouldn't think so, they would think it was the best reward for their crazy attacks throughout the first half.
As Manchester City people celebrated their goals, Oliver, the referee on duty in this game, blew the whistle to the end of the first half: the score in the half, Aston Villa led Manchester City 2-1 at home.
...
In the locker room during the halftime break, Aston Villa's emotions were obviously affected by the goal conceding in the last moment of the first half, and they were a little depressed.
"Okay, don't think that you'll lose the ball..." Fang Jue clapped his hands, "The Manchester City people are lucky in the last moment. If they think they can beat us by luck, they'll be very wrong."
"Luck is ultimately the best performing side. We played well in the first half, and the goddess of luck will always favor us, to be precise, my team!" Fang Jue said with a smile, "If you don't believe me, you can ask Clement, Oh, I led Ibiza and the Spaniards in La Liga in the Spanish Second Division for a game. In that game, I thought my team was the luckiest person in the world."
"I can prove it." Clement said with a smile, "the opponent gives us all kinds of mistakes, and how we shoot, and the opponent has various pillars and beams."
Everyone laughed. Although they had never watched that game, many people still heard of it.
Seeing that the atmosphere in the locker room was normal, Fang Jue began to deploy the second half of the game.
"In the first half, Manchester City's offense seemed fierce. In fact, except for Yaya Toure's low shot and Aguero's goal in the last moment, they didn't have many real chances to score." Fang Jue said.
"We don't have many scoring opportunities, but we have seized the only two excellent opportunities we have. This is the victory in offensive efficiency!" Fang Jue gave the players a thumbs up, "Good job, I'm proud of you!"
"In the second half, Manchester City's morale must be very strong after winning a goal."
"After the second half begins, Manchester City's most likely opportunity to seize the opportunity to attack the game."
"They will continue to launch a fierce offensive against our goal."
"At this time, everyone should be vigilant and withstand their offensive."
"Sendros and Thiago Silva replaced, Sendros went to defend Dzeko, and Silva defended Aguero." Fang Jue adjusted the defensive positions of the two central defenders.
In comparison, Thiago Silva's speed and reaction were faster than Sendros, especially turning faster.
In the first half, Sendros struggled to defend Aguero, and the Argentinian was too flexible, fast and explosive.
"The fifteen minutes after the start of the second half are very critical. We must defend well and curb Manchester City's offensive."
"After fifteen minutes of the game, if Manchester City cannot score, their morale will be affected, and the next ten minutes will be deadlocked."
"At this time, our goal is not to score goals, but to control the rhythm of the game as much as possible."
"Peace the rhythm of the game in our own hands, and as the game time goes by, the City people will become more impatient, and that's our chance."
...
Manchester City's dressing room.
Pellegrini is also giving Manchester City players tactical explanations for the second half of the game.
"... We must strengthen the offensive at the beginning of the second half. The quality of our offensive in the first half was too low!" Pellegrini criticized the team's performance mercilessly. "You must know the quality of the offensive in the first half. This is not enough, and the offensive efficiency must be improved!"
"Two sides, Sabaletta and Krish need to be more active."
"Yaya Toure should be more active on the offensive end."
"Navas, you're a little silent on the right. You're going to run in the second half, put pressure on Aston Villa's left, suppress Milner's assisted defense and offensive performance."
...
At this moment, the commentators are also commenting on the performance of both sides in the first half.
"Aston Villa showed us a team that can do the best offensive efficiency," He Wei exclaimed. "Manchester City should learn more from their opponents in today's game."
Zhang Lu smiled and said, "Everyone is praising Aston Villa's offense, so I won't say much. I want to praise their defense."
"Aston Villa's defense is very good, Manchester City's offense is loud and thundering, and it's not because Manchester City's offense is not good. On the contrary, Manchester City's attack power is very strong, which most directly shows how outstanding Aston Villa has done on the defensive end."
The second half of the game began.
The situation was as expected by Fang Jue.
Manchester City launched a bombing, trying to use the momentum at the beginning of the game to equalize the score as soon as possible.
Fang Jue emphasized during the halftime that Aston Villa, whom he had instructed, was ready for such bombardment by Manchester City people.
Facing the offensive of Manchester City people, although they were a little passive and even a little embarrassed at some moments, Aston Villa's overall defensive formation was not chaotic. They always firmly defended the defense line and were not successfully penetrated by Manchester City.
Facing Aston Villa's tough defense, it is difficult for Manchester City to penetrate Aston Villa's defense through organizational infiltration. They begin to become impatient and start to try more long shots.
Aguero faced Thiago Silva's defense and tried to change directions continuously but failed to find a way to break through. He knocked the ball to Navas on his side, who dribbled the ball along the side for a period of the club and chose to take a high ball to the penalty area.
Dzeko grabbed the spot in front of the goal, Sendros defended him, and the football was first pushed out of the penalty area by Sendros.
Modric wanted to stop the ball and observe it before initiating the attack. His ball was intercepted by Fernandinho, and Modric also fell to the ground.
Fang Jue raised his hands and shouted on the sidelines. He thought it was a foul and Fernandinho fouled Modric.
However, referee Oliver doesn't seem to see that.
Then, Fernandinho passed the ball to David Silva, who controlled the ball continuously slightly near the top of the penalty area on the wing, attracted Aston Villa's defensive attention, and suddenly knocked the ball to Crish who came to meet him.
The French defender crossed the ball in the middle, and Fernandinho, who inserted it, directly hit the ball and shot with a long shot.
After the football was blocked by Milner for a moment, a refraction occurred and the football flew directly to the goal.
Fortunately, after the shot was blocked, the football's speed was not fast, and Ter Stegen hit the football out of the bottom line in a little embarrassed manner:
Manchester City's corner kick.
...
Dzeko received a corner kick from Sabaleta, and he jumped high in the penalty area and headed the ball.
Unfortunately, under Sendros' close defense, he just rubbed the ball slightly and could not support the power. The football was calmly picked out by goalkeeper Ter Stegen.
Then, Aston Villa goalkeeper quickly ran to the edge of the penalty area and Dali threw the ball with his hand to launch a quick counterattack.
