Chapter Three Hundred and Seventy Seventh Victory over Lyon

Following Berbat's words, the big screen pointed to Lyon's coaching bench, and I saw head coach Alain Perrin standing on the sidelines. He frowned and looked at the game field with a very serious expression.

"Perrin may be thinking about how to make adjustments." Berbatt, the commentator on the scene, laughed, "but he probably has a hard time thinking of a way. Manchester City has a 2-0 lead, and Lyon is already in an extremely unfavorable situation..."

"Perrin vowed before the game that he and all Lyon players have confidence in the game, which is very interesting. It is said that many French media also hold the same view of the game. I don't know when Manchester City of Wansheng actually became a team. A team that is easily beaten by opponents at home, but now, do they still think so?”

Berbat's slightly sarcastic commenter.

In his constant commentary and commentary, the game time passed little by little, and the first half ended like this.

Manchester City entered half-time with a two-goal advantage.

Every Manchester City player is very relaxed when they come off the court, and Torres is the happiest. Both goals in the first half were scored by Torres.

When playing for Atlético de Madrid, Torres was also the best in the team, often scoring goals in the game, but Atletico Madrid's performance was not good. In recent seasons, they have all missed the Champions League, so this game is Manchester City's current season. The first game of the Champions League is actually Torres' first game of the Champions League.

The first time I participated in the Champions League, I was able to score two goals in the first half, which was really good.

Every Manchester City teammate is 'congratulating' Torres, and Torres is very excited to enjoy the praise and blessings of his teammates.

After coming to Manchester City, especially after a few rounds of the league, Torres was still under a lot of pressure, mainly because Darren Bent performed too well and scored a lot more than him. As a 40 million euro star, Torres is already a first-line star player, a first-line star player is very popular, but also has to shoulder a lot of pressure if he does not perform well. even say. He just shows the level of ordinary players, will make fans and media dissatisfied.

Torres' performance has been good so far, but it is still not as good as Darren Bent, and it is not too good, so there have been some remarks about "parallel imports" in the British media.

After this game, those people must be able to shut up!

A Champions League, against Lyon. Two goals in the half. This efficiency is enough to satisfy everyone!

Contrary to the optimism of the Manchester City team, there is an air of depression that pervades Lyon.

When head coach Alan Perrin returned to the locker room, his face was ugly. A defeat in the Champions League against the top of the Premier League was nothing. The point is that this defeat made him lose his majesty in the team.

In the summer, Alan Perrin just took over from Leon, and many players in the team are not familiar with him. He himself has no experience of coaching giants, that is to say. Players are not convinced by his ability.

Although Lyon got off to a good start in the league, with only one draw in four games and all the remaining victories, most players believe that it has nothing to do with Perrin, the new coach. Very complete, even without a coach, under the leadership of captain Juninho, they can still play very well.

The Champions League is where Alan Perrin proves himself.

The result was such a 'confident' game against Manchester City, with two goals behind in the first half, and there was absolutely no hope of tying the score.

The key is that Perrin also said something like 'must win' before the game.

He thought so, and the result was the exact opposite of what he thought. So, what will the players in the locker room think? If he loses the game, after the game is over, how many players will still believe in him and respect the majesty of his head coach?

Perrin was at a loss.

Not only is the majesty in the team lost, the French media and fans will also be disappointed with him. After the game, he will definitely face considerable pressure.

There is still halftime in the game, and he still has time for players, media, and fans to change their views, but the key is here. After a halftime, he feels powerless about the game again.

Can such a Manchester City really be beaten by Lyon?

He lost his confidence and didn't know how to adjust to make the team play better.

It feels so bad!

Perhaps, normally speaking, it is acceptable for Lyon to lose away to Manchester City, after all, the latter is the Premier League champion, but it should not be that he did not keep a low profile before the game, but made a high-profile declaration of 'confidence' and ' must win'.

In addition, the game process is also very important.

From the perspective of the process, when Lyon faced Manchester City, there was really nothing to do. The defense could not hold, the offense could not be suppressed at all, and the situation was completely at a disadvantage.

This makes Perrin feel powerless, because he knows that the next time he returns to the Gaylan Stadium, the game is likely to be like this.

In powerlessness and a wry smile, Perrin could only pretend to be serious and say some words of encouragement to the players. This is what a head coach must do, but I don't know how much effect it will have.

————

Lyon's performance in the second half was not as good as in the first half.

This may be related to Perrin's failure to make timely adjustments, or it may also be related to Lyon's mentality of being behind by two goals and eager to catch up with the score. In short, Manchester City scored the third goal in 12 minutes.

After the third goal, the sky above Manchester Stadium was full of Manchester City fans singing.

This is Manchester City's first Champions League game of the new season. The opponent is still Lyon, the strongest in this group. No one expected Manchester City to perform so well. In 60 minutes, 3:0, the score is like saying, "Lyon is completely Not a rival to Manchester City."

Seeing this score, Manchester City fans also have more confidence in the team and look forward to the whole season.

Just as the fans cheered, Manchester City scored the fourth goal at the end of the game. At this time, Lyon didn't even 'not fighting back', because they knew that the game would definitely fail. , but some players still hoped to perform at the last time, so there was the last goal.

The player who scored the goal - Ozil.

The German boy scored the first goal of the new season, or in the Champions League.

The fourth goal is of little significance, but in any case, it is also a goal in the Champions League. For Ozil, it is very important.

It was also the final goal of the game.

When the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, the Manchester Stadium was completely filled with singing and cheers, and almost all Manchester City fans were dancing and celebrating the victory.

"The whole game is over! Manchester City won their first Champions League victory of the season! 4-0, they won't have any suspense!"

"Seeing this score, many people may think that Manchester City's opponent is a small club, but Lyon, the seven-time Ligue 1 champion, is by no means an underdog. They are regulars in the Champions League and often reach the quarter-finals of the Champions League. Even in the quarter-finals, they lost to Manchester City, and they didn't seem to have the strength to fight back in the whole game..."

"This is Manchester City's first Champions League game this season, and they handed over a perfect answer! Manchester City used this 4:0 to tell everyone that they are a strong contender for the Champions League!"

"If Manchester City can stick to today's performance, we also believe that they will definitely go further in the Champions League..."

"..."

Amid the praise of Manchester City from various media, the match at Manchester Stadium came to an end.

————

After the game with Lyon, the British media praised Manchester City.

The British media's support for clubs can almost be described as a 'regional' fragmentation.

The London media supports the London team and is hostile to the giant teams in the north; the Manchester media supports the Manchester team and is very hostile to the London team.

Just within the Manchester region, it is also divided into several factions. The three representative factions are: Manchester United faction, Manchester City faction and Bolton faction.

Due to historical reasons, Manchester United, Manchester City and Bolton have the best results. The three teams have many supporters, of which Manchester United is the most. However, in terms of fighting against the 'London team', Manchester City also Will put aside prejudice, unanimously support the team in their own region.

For example, when Manchester City and Chelsea play, the Manchester United media will also be slightly biased towards Manchester City. Although Manchester City is Manchester United's sworn enemy, it is still a Manchester team.

Therefore, although Wansheng's popularity in the British media is not very good, the media who oppose him will always outnumber those who support him, but Manchester City is always a British team. When Manchester City participated in the Champions League, the British media unanimously supported him. .

Now Manchester City are playing beautifully and beat Lyon 4-0, so the British media wrote a lot about it.

Instead, the French media wailed.

They did not expect that, as the representative team of French football recently, Lyon would lose so badly in Manchester!

Before, many French media also believed that the prospects of the game were very optimistic.

At the same time, football media from all over the world concerned about the Champions League also made corresponding reports on the game.

Because of the result of the game, this game has also become the most concerned about the first round of the Champions League. It is very important that Lyon, as the Ligue 1 champion, actually lost 4:0, and the overall performance was not Manchester City's opponent at all.

So more people began to discuss Manchester City, and more people began to study Manchester City's personnel and style of play.

The same is true of Chinese media.

However, the core content of their reports has little to do with the game. Instead, they are discussing Wansheng himself. Recently, this has also been the hottest focus of domestic football.

Before, many people in China were criticizing Wansheng, and many people were expressing support.

With Manchester City's big victory, Wansheng once again showed his amazing coaching ability, so there were more and more comments supporting Wansheng, and those criticizing Wansheng were suppressed for a while.

The domestic public opinion situation is developing in a favorable direction for Wansheng.

But at this time, a media called "Football Weekly" suddenly published an interview report.

This interview report on Wan Sheng has attracted much attention as soon as it was published, and major media have reprinted it one after another. It has become the hottest and most controversial topic in China for a while. (To be continued ~^~)
