Chapter 376 It's Torres Again! !

Benzema, very good.

At the age of 17, Benzema has already represented Lyon's first team. Since last year, he has become Lyon's main striker at the age of 20. He is a striker genius of Lyon and a genius of France's striker.

But compared with the current Darren Bent, Benzema is nothing.

Darren Bent has gradually become Manchester City's main selection player last season. He also has a better Anelka on his head. In the case of limited playing time, the number of goals remains high.

Darren - Bent's personal ability is no worse than Benzema, and he also has a wealth of game experience.

Govu?

How can this French striker compare to Spain's 'Golden Boy' Torres?

Speaking of midfield...it's even more incomparable.

Maurice, Silva, Ozil, these three players can choose one at random, and it is not that Lyon can compare with players. The only shot they can take is Juninho, but the 33-year-old Ru Ninho is already old after all, and other Lyon midfielders, regardless of their reputation and strength, need not be mentioned at all.

Lyon players go into the game with the confidence to win.

But as soon as the game started, they hit a wall. When they planned to use the team's skillful cooperation to attack Manchester City's defense, they encountered Manchester City's tenacious full-court pressing. After they got the ball in the frontcourt, they wanted to Passing is difficult.

Soon the ball changed hands, and Manchester City began to control and cooperate.

Manchester City firmly controlled the ball under their feet and were not in a hurry to attack at all. They kept passing back and forth, making the Lyon team scratch their heads.

Manchester City seems to be doing passing training, constantly passing the ball, constantly passing the ball, dazzling, the football has already passed the halfway line, when Lyon is going to press over. The football went to another position first, the Lyon player in that position went up, and the football flew to another position.

In the dazzling cooperation of Manchester City, Lyon felt very uncomfortable.

In response to this style of play, head coach Alan Perrin is prepared. That's about getting the team to run and press harder. But it is very simple to say, and it is completely different when you face it on the field.

When the Lyon players found that they had run for a long time without any effect, they gave up in their hearts and did not want to run anymore.

Just when they had a trace of pine creek, the football had been passed to the front of the penalty area.

Ozil, who was inserted in the midfield, suddenly sent a straight pass!

This pass is quite amazing. Lyon's defense couldn't react at all. Before they pressed, some players ran too far forward. As a result, the pass directly penetrated their midfield defense. When they saw the football entering a dangerous position, it was too late to chase back.

The football is rushing towards the front of the box, where Darren Bent has caught up!

When Torres moved to Manchester City in the summer, Wansheng let Darren Bent play the role of a second striker and let him focus on training his passing ability.

Wansheng is not stingy either. Directly put the "national event honor halo" on Darren Bent's "passing ability evaluation" attribute, and the result is. Darren Bent's passing ability has been greatly improved.

Before Darren Bent's passing ability was very average, not to mention compared with midfielders such as Morris and Ozil, compared with ordinary strikers, it was not high, but after nearly two months of personal training , coupled with the improvement of the "10% attribute ability of the national competition honor halo", his passing ability evaluation has caught up with Ozil, Silva and others.

Although there is still a little gap with Morris, the evaluation value of '93' is enough to become the world's top.

So, seeing Darren Bent with the ball in that position, Wansheng stood up.

"good chance!"

Lyon players hold the opposite view.

Before the start of the game, Lyon prepared a lot for the game, and also focused on analyzing the ability of several threatening players of Manchester City.

Darren Bent, the top scorer in the first six rounds of Manchester City and the top scorer in the Premier League, is naturally the focus of the study.

Darren Bent's ability is easy to analyze. Including the first two seasons, he has scored a lot of goals and has very few assists, so head coach Alan Perrin believes that Darren Bent is not a threat in assists. Big, but when he gets the ball in a dangerous position, he must stop him from shooting at the first time.

Lyon players do the same.

The centre-back Squelage jumped up almost as soon as Darren Bent waved his foot and wanted to 'block the hole' with his body. Another centre-back, Bodema, also ran two steps to the left, trying to block the opening. Multiple goal angles.

But the next moment, they saw Darren Bent pass the ball.

Darren Bent swung his right leg high, dropped it gently, and kicked the ball to the right front with the sole of his foot.

There's... Torres!

Just now, Lyon central defender Bodema was defending Torres, but he was deceived by Darren Bent's action and ran two steps to the side. As a result, Torres was unguarded on the right side of the penalty area, and even the goalkeeper was on the other side. Block again.

This is a chance to push the empty goal!

The next thing was simple. Torres faced the rolling football and pushed gently with the inside of his foot, and the football flew into the goal without any suspense.

"Torres!"

"Fernando Torres-!!"

“Goooooooal!!!!”

"Just 13 minutes into the game, Torres gave Manchester City the lead!"

"1:0! 1:0!"

"This ball... Bodema's defense made a mistake, and as a result, Manchester City almost passed the ball into the Lyon goal! When Torres shot, the goalkeeper was on the other side!"

"Darren Bent has done a fantastic job, with a swipe of his foot, he has fooled the two centre-backs and the goalkeeper Viktor..."

After the goal, almost all the commentators praised Darren Bent, and Torres, who helped Manchester City score the first goal of the Champions League this season, was somewhat ignored.

But in fact, Darren Bent's pass is really not technical.

It just made a fake shot, then faked a real pass, and stabbed the ball to the other side of the penalty area. The pass is still very accurate, but it is not very technical and not very exciting. The key is Lyon's own mistakes. .

Two centre-backs, plus a goalkeeper, they've all been duped.

Wan Sheng was a little stunned watching the goal from the sidelines.

This may be the star's "deterrent"!

Darren Bent, the No. 1 scorer in the Premier League is there. Lyon cannot afford to ignore it. As a result, they pay too much attention. The analysis of Darren Bent's technical strength is too in-depth. Darren Bent was in a dangerous position and would definitely choose to shoot. As a result, they guessed wrong, which had extremely serious consequences.

Of course, Wansheng was still very happy.

The opponent's mistakes are the team's victory. Now that the team leads by one goal, the next game will be better.

————

As Wansheng thought, Manchester City played more smoothly after taking the lead.

This was originally a home game. After leading by a goal, with the cheers of the Manchester City fans, the Manchester City players played more easily. They continued to play smooth cooperation in the frontcourt, which made Lyon in front of the goal.

In the next 20 minutes, Lyon did not play any decent attack, they have been suppressed by Manchester City.

The situation of the two teams can be explained by a set of data mentioned by the on-site commentator, "In less than 35 minutes of the game, Manchester City's possession time accounted for 63%, while Lyon only had 37%. In terms of shots, Manchester City had seven shots, one goal, Lyon had only two, did not pose a threat..."

This suppressed game made Lyon players a little confused.

Before the game, they all believed that Manchester City had no confidence that the team would win the away game. As a result, the half-time has not been passed. Not to mention the score is behind, the game has been played quite passively.

Lyon is constantly engaged in defensive competition, but the effect is not very good. This is what head coach Alan Perrin said before the game, "As long as we increase the defensive intensity and press harder, the opponent's cooperation will be very messy." , the complete opposite.

They tried hard, but the defense didn't work well.

Many people don't know what to do!

Lyon coach Alain Perrin was also reflecting on this issue on the coaching bench of the visiting team at the Manchester Stadium. In his memory, the focus of the match against Manchester City was to fight hard, but the team did so, why didn’t it work well?

After observing the game for a while, Alan Perrin came to a conclusion, which made him sweat - the current Manchester City is much stronger than the Manchester City two years ago!

Perrin's impression of Manchester City is still two years ago. When Perrin wanted to come, that Manchester City was the Premier League champion at that time, and now this Manchester City is also the defending Premier League champion. Anyway, they are all Premier League champions. How much?

But obviously, the Manchester City in memory is also very good, but the Manchester City that completely suppressed Lyon on the field are completely two teams.

On the field, the Manchester City team has strong players, rich experience and mature tactics. The performance level is completely the top in Europe. It is also a home game, and their state is also very good.

Lyon wants to beat Manchester City like this... It's hard!

When Alan Perrin realized the problem, it was too late. In the 41st minute of the game, Manchester City scored another goal. This goal was based on a free kick in the frontcourt.

Morris took a set kick, the football was hung on the right side of the penalty area, and the central defender Koppelle Ferreira rushed over and successfully grabbed the header and scored the goal.

The Spanish 'Golden Boy' watched the ball fly over in surprise, and without hesitation, he swung his legs and volleyed to win the ball!

"The ball is in! The ball is in!"

"2:0! It's Torres again! A clean volley!"

"Nice job!"

The on-site commentator Berbat said excitedly, "Before the game, Lyon coach Perrin said with confidence that Lyon can take three points away at Manchester Stadium. But I don't know if he still thinks so now?" (To be continued~^ ~)
