Chapter 1179 is not so easy to shrink

Mahrez's shot proved that he is in good condition, and such a player will not solve the problem with just one shot.

Sure enough, a few minutes later, he made another threatening attack. After switching to the middle, he received a direct pass from Rodri, and then kicked up a shot from the top of the penalty area. The ball still slightly missed the far goal. column.

Although it is wide, it can be seen that Mahrez's shots are all going to the dead corner. Once this kind of shot is within the range of the goal frame, the goalkeeper basically does not have much to do.

Manchester City has had three or four shots like this, and Southampton is almost the same. This means that although the good chances created by both sides under the pressing and confrontation of the two sides are much worse than usual, the quality Come on, that's not bad at all.

Such a confrontation between teams deserves the highest level of praise.

At this time, the mentality of Manchester City's players also began to expand slightly. After all, they still have some advantages in offense now. Expansion is also natural. Unfortunately, it is such a little expansion that makes Southampton, or let Southampton Du Yue, found an opportunity!

Southampton took the goal kick and then went on the attack.

This is a seemingly ordinary attack. They are still passing on the field, looking for opportunities, and Manchester City is still pressing and interfering with the attack.

The ball passed to Grealish's feet, he suddenly accelerated and began to take the ball forward!

His sudden acceleration was indeed a bit sudden, but Manchester City's defense immediately reacted. Rodri went to defend, and then personally interfered with Grealish, who fell to the ground.

When Grealish fell, the two sides were unanimously loose, because Rodri's defense probably fouled this time, but the next moment, Du Yue next to him controlled the ball that rolled out, and then dribbled the ball forward !

Offensive advantage!

The referee did not call the penalty, but ran down with Du Yue. Manchester City's defenders, at this moment, took a step slower.

Du Yue quickly approached the edge of the penalty area with the ball!

Walker, who came to defend sideways, was forced by him to dribble the ball, and Dias came up to meet him. As long as he blocks Du Yue here, he can let others succeed!

However, at the next moment, Du Yue made an emergency stop, and then dribbled the ball horizontally.

Dias stabilized his body and prepared to continue to intercept.

Du Yue flicked the ball again and broke through from the left again!

This time, he rushed directly from the opponent!

When Dias turned around to defend again, he was already a step behind. Du Yue sprinted at his highest speed, and strode to catch up with the ball!

Edson jumped out and opened his arms. Du Yue's shooting angle was already very small at this time, and he blocked it quite tightly!

Du Yue caught up with the ball, and before he fell to the ground, he lifted the inside of his right foot and kicked the ball out!

The ball drew an obvious arc in the air, flew past Edson's side, and then spun directly into the far corner of the goal!

"The ball... the ball was scored! One to zero! Southampton scored the first goal before the end of the first half! Du Yue! Du Yue made a wonderful one-stop goal! After passing two people with the ball, facing the goalkeeper , hit a nice curveball! Great shooter!"

After Du Yue shot, the whole person fell down, but with the help of the power of the shot, he rolled forward in a circle, stood up, looked into the goal, and then rushed out with open arms.

Du Yue's first shot in this game opened the scoring!

"It's really a big scene, Mr. Southampton is really lucky to have Du Yue..."

All of a sudden, countless commentators began to sigh.

Guardiola couldn't help but punched hard on the lawn in front of him-their defense was good enough, but Du Yue still seized the opportunity!

One goal behind and entering the second half, this is troublesome!

Indeed, for Southampton, after already leading, they can play more easily.

"We took the lead in the first half... It's a good thing, it means we can play more comfortably in the next game, continue to maintain our form, entangle with them, wait for the opportunity to appear, even if we lose the ball, we don't have any mood. Do you understand the turmoil in the world?"

Kiya said happily in the locker room.

The players in Southampton nodded one after another. The two sides are of similar standard. If they are leading at this time, then the game can be played more calmly.

Leading the score is definitely a huge advantage, otherwise why do all the coaches want their teams to open the scoring first?

After taking the lead, no matter how you say it, you have more leeway than your opponent.

Of course Guardiola knows this, so he is so angry.

"In the second half, we need to be more aggressive in our offense... We have the opportunity to press up more and fight step by step. It is difficult for us to take advantage of it, so we need to be more aggressive in the game, understand?"

Guardiola said in the dressing room.

The players nodded one after another. They also knew this in their hearts. Being aggressive was a helpless choice, but they could only do so now, otherwise they would have no chance of winning the game.

A League Cup champion is also very important.

The intermission time passed quickly. Players from both sides came out. Neither Guardiola nor Du Yue made substitutions.

Moreover, the state and physical fitness of the players on both sides are very good. Substitution at this time can only make them unstable.

The two sides continued to entangle, confront, run, and pass on the field...

It is so tiring to fight against teams with similar technical characteristics.

In such a confrontation, the two sides still tenaciously created some opportunities.

Southampton was the first to create a threat. Valverde retreated to get the ball and then split the ball. Soucek, who advanced forward, saw that no one came up to defend him for the time being. He decisively kicked a long shot. Desen threw the ball sideways and the ball was taken by Walker.

A few minutes later, Manchester City also looked for an opportunity through continuous passing. After receiving the ball from the B seat, Mahrez forcibly cut into the penalty area. After shaking continuously, he dodged a shot gap, and then shot decisively. After struggling to block the ball, the speed of the ball's flight slowed down, and Martin held the ball in his arms.

"They seem to have sped up their tempo a little bit, and their offense has been pushed a little higher," Benelli said to Kiya.

"It's normal, they have to take risks now... But even if we equalize the score, we will have a chance. Since we have already started to take risks, we shouldn't think about retreating immediately after scoring a goal... It's not so easy to shrink. "Ji Ya replied.
