Chapter 282 Champions League Champion - Manchester City!

Atletico Madrid's left back had a yellow card on his back, so he didn't dare to foul. He could only interfere with Lin Quan as much as possible, slow down his advancement speed, and buy time for his teammates to help defend.

Godin and Koke are also running towards this side, and the Atletico Madrid players obviously know who is the biggest threat.

Since the attack was launched from the rear, Lin Quan was too far away from Atletico Madrid's goal.

So when he killed halftime, Atletico Madrid's defensive players in the halftime had already taken a lot of positions.

Lin Quan now has two options, dribble the ball past Philip and then cut inside, and finish the shot before Gabi and Godin intercept.

But in that case, he will be farther away from the goal, Atletico Madrid's goalkeeper will have more time to prepare, and the probability of scoring is not high.

Another option is to take the ball to the bottom, wait until the teammate outflanking the center arrives and complete the cross, assisting the teammate to score.

The success rate of the second option depends on the quality of his passing and the shooting skills of the teammates who receive the ball.

Lin Quan did not hesitate between the two options, he quickly chose the second way.

After the previous scoring experience, Atletico Madrid's defenders will inevitably foul if they can't guard him.

Lin Quan didn't want to waste this opportunity, even if he couldn't shoot directly, he had to give the opportunity to his opponent.

Thinking of this, Lin Quan made a move to cut inside and go to the middle. After the cheated Philip gave up his center of gravity, he quickly dribbled the ball along the sidewalk and sprinted towards the bottom line.

Philip hurriedly adjusted his center of gravity and chased him up from behind, while central defender Godin didn't dare to neglect, and immediately moved towards the sidewalk.

For a player of Lin Quan's level, as long as he is given space, he can bring the ball into the penalty area from near the baseline, and then complete the shot with almost zero angle.

Don't compare geniuses like them with ordinary people. They can do things that ordinary people can't.

Atlético are right to regard Shangxialin Quanquan as their biggest threat.

However, the more attention paid to Lin Quan, the easier it would be to become passive tactically.

Just like now, when Lin Quan dribbles the ball to the bottom, their central defenders and full backs have to follow, because one-on-one can't be defended at all!
But the number of defensive players on the field is limited. When Lin Quan alone attracts two defensive players from the opponent, other Manchester City players can get more opportunities.

Seeing Godin rushing over, Lin Quan judged the distance between the two sides, and after confirming that Godin could not return to the defense quickly, he immediately passed the ball.

At this time, Manchester City's striker Aguero had already outflanked, and almost all the players on the defensive line of Atletico Madrid thought that Lin Quan would pass the ball to him.

So Miranda rushed to Aguero one step ahead of time, intending to interfere with his receiving the ball, block his shooting space, and not give him a chance to shoot.

However, after he rushed to Aguero's side, he realized that the ball was not passed to Aguero.

De Bruyne, who plugged in at high speed from the rear, got the ball first.

At this time, De Bruyne was unguarded.

Gabi, who was supposed to follow him, was taken to the wing by Lin Quan, and central defender Godin was also attracted by Lin Quan.

And another central defender, Miranda, chose the wrong object to defend, which caused a defensive vacuum around De Bruyne for a short time!
Courtois saw De Bruyne receive the ball and his eyes widened in horror.

De Bruyne will definitely shoot this ball. Where will he play?
Courtois knows De Bruyne very well. He knows that De Bruyne has a habit of looking in advance of the direction he is going to hit the goal before shooting.

Sure enough, when De Bruyne received the ball, he looked up to the left side of the goal, as if he was about to choose to shoot in this direction.

In the absence of assistance, in the contest between the goalkeeper and the shooter, the passive side is always the goalkeeper.

He can't wait for the opponent to finish the shot before making a save, otherwise it may be too late.

Courtois didn't have time to think, and immediately moved to the left.

At this time, De Bruyne has also completed the shooting action, and the football flies into the air and flies towards the goal.

However, what surprised Courtois was that the ball was not shot to the left, but flew to the right of the goal.

This means that he judged the wrong direction!

Courtois hurriedly stopped, stopped moving to the left, and hurriedly stretched out his right hand, trying to save the shot.

It has to be said that Courtois's reaction speed and physical fitness are indeed excellent, but De Bruyne's ball is of high quality. He may not be able to save it under normal saves, let alone This situation?

Without any suspense, the football pierced through Atletico Madrid's goal again.

Manchester City scored another goal in the 74th minute of the second half to rewrite the score to 2:0.
This time node, this score.

The outcome of this game has basically lost suspense!
After scoring this goal, De Bruyne was so excited that he rushed to Lin Quan excitedly and hugged him.

"Lin, the trick you said in the locker room really worked!"

What De Bruyne was talking about was the move he pointed east and west just now, deliberately aiming at the left side of the goal, but actually hitting the other direction, in order to confuse the goalkeeper.

"Hehe, of course, I discovered your shooting habit when we were in Werder Bremen, and Courtois must have known it earlier!"

"In this way, it doesn't seem like a good thing to know a person too much?"

De Bruyne laughed out loud when he heard Lin Quan's words. It is of great significance to him to score a goal that seals the victory in the final.

After seeing this goal, the Manchester City fans at the scene were completely relieved.

When they lead by one goal, they will inevitably feel worried in their hearts, for fear that Atletico Madrid will suddenly equalize the score in a certain attack, making them happy in vain.

But now, with De Bruyne scoring the second goal, Manchester City's advantage is already very large!

Even if Atletico Madrid scored a goal, it would not change their leading advantage.

Moreover, with Atletico Madrid's current state, Manchester City fans are not optimistic about them breaking their own goals!
It is not only Manchester City fans who have this kind of relaxed mentality, but also their players, coaches and others.

Seeing De Bruyne's goal, including the goalkeeper, almost the whole team rushed over and celebrated with De Bruyne and Lin Quan.

Manchester City is not AC Milan, and there is no chance to return to the dressing room to let them open champagne, so at this time point, this lead can be said to allow them to touch the trophy with one hand!
"This score can be said to be very dangerous for Atletico Madrid. As long as Manchester City defends the last 20 minutes, they can win the most important championship trophy of the season!"

In the commentary booth of Sky Sports, Martin Taylor and Andy Gray were both very excited at this time.

The Premier League team is about to stand on the podium of the Champions League again!

"That's right, but there is a saying that a 2-0 lead is the most dangerous moment!"

While being excited, Andy Gray also maintained a trace of calmness.

"Oh? Why is there such a saying?"

Martin Taylor has naturally heard of this statement, but he saw that his partner had prepared a long speech, so he asked a question in a cooperative manner.

"Because this kind of lead is very fragile, compared with a one-goal lead, after 2:0, the leading side will feel that they have won the game, which makes them relax and lose their aggressiveness.

On the other side, the team behind by two goals has nothing to lose, so they will inevitably launch a counterattack desperately.

Under the ebb and flow, the leading side is very likely to lose the ball under the opponent's desperate attack.

Once a goal is lost and the score becomes a more dangerous 2:1, the morale of both sides will change drastically.

The morale of the leading side suffers a heavy blow, and they will be very worried about being equalized, so they will play even more timidly.

The morale of the lagging side will be boosted after scoring a goal. After seeing the hope of an equalizer, they will play more actively and actively, which will lead to the second goal coming soon. "

"These are not fabricated by me, but actually happened on the field!"

Hearing Andy Gray's words, Martin Taylor nodded seriously, and then said:

"Manchester City has indeed taken a big lead, but they must not take it lightly. They must concentrate and play well for the next 20 minutes!"

……

Pellegrini thought so!
After seeing De Bruyne score, he immediately asked Milner to warm up.

During the intermission, Pellegrini originally planned to replace Navas and Nasri to strengthen the attack.

But now, the team has led by 2 goals. They don't need to continue to strengthen their offense. Instead, they need to strengthen their defense or keep the team's offense and defense in balance.

Milner is an all-rounder in the frontcourt. He can play a huge role in both offensive and defensive ends. Replacing him at this time will allow Manchester City to add a barrier in the frontcourt and provide more protection for the team's goals.

In the 77th minute, Manchester City made a substitution.

David Silva was substituted and Milner came off the bench.

Manchester City's substitution is a signal that they are likely to switch from offense to defense next.

Atletico Madrid, Simeone immediately made personnel adjustments after seeing Pellegrini's substitution.

He put on a winger to strengthen the attack!

Atletico Madrid has no other choice at this time. If they can't score as soon as possible, they will definitely lose if the game is dragged down!

However, after Atletico Madrid completed the substitutions, they discovered that Manchester City's formation had become 451.
Lin Quan retreated to the midfield, acting as a frontcourt free man in offense, and became a central midfielder in defense.

Milner, who was replaced, did not appear on the wing, but with Lin Quan, one left and one right, becoming another central midfielder for Manchester City.

As for the wing side, De Bruyne, who is slightly weaker in defense, appeared here, but his position was slightly forward.

This formation is very strange, Manchester City has never used it before, so no one knows how effective this formation is.

Soon, Atletico Madrid felt the power of Manchester City's defensive formation.

They saw that Manchester City had too many players in the middle, so they chose to attack from the side.

De Bruyne, who was in the front position, was quickly passed, but Lin Quan, who was diagonally behind him, rushed forward immediately.

At the same time, Manchester City's full-backs stepped forward to participate in the press, forming a triangle formation in the local area, locking the movement space of the opposing players with the ball.

The ball was intercepted without any suspense, and Manchester City immediately counterattacked.

Lin Quan handed the ball to De Bruyne, and De Bruyne quickly passed it diagonally to Aguero at the front.

It's a pity that Aguero failed to catch the ball and was destroyed by the opponent in advance!
Aguero was a little helpless, Lin Quan and De Bruyne both scored goals, and he also wanted to score a goal.

But looking at the attitude of Atletico Madrid players, he will not be given a chance.

Moreover, after Lin Quan retreated, he became a single arrow on the court, and he was targeted even more.

Although the counterattack was unsuccessful, the defense this time proved the power of Manchester City's tactic.

"interesting!"

In the box, Mourinho couldn't help nodding slightly after seeing Manchester City's offensive and defensive transition.

The formation of Manchester City is 451 when defending, and quickly becomes 4231 when attacking.
The positions of the two defensive midfielders will not change much, but there are too many things that the front three attacking midfielders can do.

The most important thing is that after Lin Quan's position is moved back, it is more difficult for Atletico Madrid to guard him, because his range of activities is too large, and it is difficult to restrict him whether it is man-to-man or zone defense.

And being unable to restrain him means that it is impossible to cut off Manchester City's offensive channel that continuously sends firepower forward.

This will cause them to take a lot of risks in every attack. Once the ball is intercepted, they will be threatened by Manchester City's counterattack!

In the 82nd minute, Atletico Madrid's attack was intercepted again, and Manchester City once played an extremely fast counterattack.

Aguero finally finished the shot this time, but Courtois, who was full of anger, performed impeccably this time, easily blocked his shot, and even threw the ball with his hand to make a quick counterattack. However, under Manchester City's solid defense, Atletico Madrid's counterattack still failed to work.

Seeing that there is not much time left in the game, Atletico Madrid's players are playing more and more anxiously, and their movements on the field are also getting bigger and bigger.

In the 82nd minute, the Villarra received a yellow card for a foul.

In the 85th minute, Raul Garcia also received a yellow card for shoveling De Bruyne behind his back.

Seeing De Bruyne fell to the ground injured, Lin Quan was very angry and ran over to push Garcia:
"Are you trying to destroy him?"

He saw very clearly just now that the opponent's shoe spikes were on when he tackled the ball, and he didn't choose to stop his feet when he knew he couldn't touch the ball in the last kick.

In other words, this guy kicked someone on purpose!

Raul Garcia played this game extremely aggrieved. At this time, he was pushed by Lin Quan, and the anger in his heart rushed up.

How could he be willing to suffer such grievances, he immediately pushed Lin Quan with his backhand, and raised his fist to hit him.

Lin Quan wasn't the one to suffer. Seeing that the opponent was about to make a move, he waved his fist.

Seeing this, the players of the two teams rushed up one after another, pulled the two apart, and prevented the conflict.

The referee was right in front of him, and he saw the conflict clearly.

He unceremoniously took out a yellow card from his pocket, raised it to Lin Quan, warned him, and then showed the yellow card to Atletico Madrid's midfielder Raul Garcia.

Raul Garcia just received a yellow card for a tackle, and within a minute, he received another yellow card for pushing Lin Quan.

Two yellows turned to one red and were expelled.

The team fell behind by 2 goals, and the game time came to an end.

At this time, Atletico Madrid was sent off again. In this game, even if the gods came, they might not be able to save Atletico Madrid.

Seeing that De Bruyne could not persist, Pellegrini made another substitution adjustment, replacing De Bruyne and Nasri.

After Nasri came on the field, Manchester City, which had an advantage in numbers, completely grasped the initiative of the game. Under the command of Lin Quan, they launched a siege to Atletico Madrid's goal.

Atletico Madrid's players were completely suppressed and couldn't even pass halftime, and the game completely lost suspense.

Seeing this situation, the referee only gave 3 minutes of stoppage time.

And before the stoppage time expired, he blew the whistle for the end of the game ahead of time!
The winner of the 2013-2014 UEFA Champions League is Manchester City!
