Ground football: Ronaldo thought I was going to assist him

October 26th, the eleventh round of the Premier League.

Manchester City will host Birmingham at Old Trafford.

More than 60,000 fans were present at the stadium.

Manchester City fans have regained their confidence in the team.

At the start of the match, Deng Kai immediately launched a through ball and kicked off.

Robbie Fowler, starting in the first team, had a stroke of genius and scored a lightning-fast goal.

Ribery then dribbled laterally to the center and delivered a brilliant pass. Roberto Baggio curled a shot into the far corner.

The second half.

Adriano, who replaced Fowler, headed the ball back to Toure, who then unleashed a stunning long-range shot.

This is Adriano's second Premier League assist.

However, his goal-scoring account is still not open.

But he was no longer in a hurry.

Once you integrate into the team, scoring goals is just a matter of time.

Anyway, he's not a goal-scoring striker.

He doesn't leech off the Celtics.

Cristiano Ronaldo: ? ? ?

Cristiano Ronaldo: Who are you slandering?

Ultimately, thanks to a corner kick from Duncan in stoppage time and a header from Hierro, Manchester City secured a 4-3 victory over Birmingham, maintaining their unbeaten home record!

In eleven league matches, Deng Kai has eight goals and six assists, both ranking first in the Premier League.

Henry's goal tally has caught up with Duncan's, and he seems poised to overtake him.

November 2nd, the 12th round of the English Premier League.

Manchester City will host Chelsea at Old Trafford.

More than 70,000 fans flocked to the stadium!

On the one hand, the team's unbeaten home record remains intact.

On the other hand, Chelsea has also been very strong this season, and has recently broken into the top three of the Premier League!

Two shades of blue, only one can shine in Manchester.

And this time, it is...

Deep blue!

Chelsea beat Manchester City 3-0.

Manchester City's unbeaten home record has been broken!

During this period, Manchester City striker Robbie Fowler was forced to leave the game due to injury, causing fans to worry about his future.

Fortunately, after the dispute at the hospital, Fowler only suffered minor injuries.

He might even be able to make it to the third round of the EFL Cup this week.

November 6th, EFL Cup third round.

Manchester City has met its match.

The bad news is that the opponent is Leeds United.

In the first round of the league, Leeds United thrashed Manchester City 3-0.

They topped the Premier League standings after the second round and were still third in the Premier League by the fifth round.

But it then plummeted to 13th in the Premier League.

They are only one place above Manchester City, who have escaped the relegation zone and returned to 14th place after winning their last game!

Their league schedule is very demanding, and the team has completely given up on other competitions.

So the good news is that Leeds United fielded a lineup of academy graduates and substitutes for this match.

In contrast, Manchester City seems to have tried to do too much at once and ended up with nothing to show for it.

They still fielded their full starting lineup, excluding the veterans.

Aren't they afraid of falling back into the relegation zone in the league again?

Don't they know that their biggest task this season is to avoid relegation?

What are they hoping for?

EFL Cup semi-finals?

What's the point?

Why not just take that 100,000+ yuan prize money?

amateur!

Since being acquired by Mansour, Manchester City has exuded an amateurish atmosphere from top to bottom, from management and the front office to the team.

See, this is the consequence of the prince playing by himself.

Even if you're wearing a white cloth on your head and come from the Middle East, you still can't play this game.

Unless your entire Abu Dhabi consortium comes in person, you will not be able to create real competitiveness.

"Hello everyone, I'm Huang Jianxiang. I'm here to bring you this match at the strong request of our viewers." Huang Jianxiang was in high spirits, and with the title of the top football commentator in China, he looked incredibly refreshed.

Manchester City's starting lineup today is:

Torres, Fowler, Ribery

Touré, Essien, Dunkay

Grosso, Chiellini, Thiago Silva, Maicon

Leman.

"Leeds United, wow... they launched a surprise attack! And it wasn't all substitutes."

"We have Robbie Keane up front. He's been out of form lately and has been relegated to the bench, but a player of his caliber can explode at any time. His threat shouldn't be underestimated."

"In addition, Leeds United also have Alan Smith in their attack, a versatile player who has already joined the England national team. It is said that Manchester United greatly admires this player!"

"In addition, Leeds United's academy midfielder James Milner is also worth watching. This player is very talented and could be the next Alan Smith!"

"In defense, Raúl Bravo, on loan from Real Madrid's youth academy, has been performing quite well recently. It remains to be seen whether he can contain the in-form Robbie Fowler!"

"This match is being held at Manchester City's home ground, Maine Road... Yes, this is definitely good news for Manchester City."

Online, a hater named Kai Laoba is refuting Huang Jianxiang's commentary in real time: "Good news? Manchester City's so-called home unbeaten record has become a joke."

"They got thrashed 3-0 by Chelsea!"

"Leeds United's lineup today is practically half their first-team squad; they clearly intend to continue playing in the EFL Cup. Manchester City is definitely going to be eliminated today!"

"Didn't you see that Manchester City only had 40,000 fans in attendance today?"

This critic noticed the decrease in Manchester City's home crowd.

However, they failed to consider that this was just an insignificant League Cup match.

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, this will be the most-watched match of this round of the EFL Cup.

With Huang Jianxiang's introduction, the competition officially began.

My dear reader, there's more to this chapter! Please click the next page to continue reading—even more exciting content awaits!

In the eighth minute, Deng Kai received a pass from Ribery during his cut inside and entered the penalty area, successfully drawing a foul from Raul Bravo.

Yellow dot!

For Manchester City, Deng Kai unsurprisingly stepped up to take the penalty he had won himself.

Ten seconds later.

Cheers erupted from the crowd.

"Beautiful! Deng Kai's penalty kicks are still very solid! The last time he missed a penalty was in last season's Champions League final!"

"Dunkay missed a penalty against Real Madrid goalkeeper Casillas."

"But then, as goalkeeper, he saved Zidane's penalty and launched a deadly counter-attack! It was one of the most classic team counter-attacks in the entire history of the Champions League!"

"1-0! Duncan gives Manchester City the lead! This is his sixth goal in the EFL Cup! He still leads the scoring charts in this competition!"

Tenth minute.

Deng Kai received the ball at the edge of the penalty area. He used a passing feint to draw young James Milner to raise his leg, and then quickly kicked twice to complete a through ball through the legs.

Robbie Fowler capitalized on a golden opportunity in front of the six-yard box, slotting the ball home.

Manchester City are leading 2-0!

Fourteenth minute.

After confronting James Milner on the left wing, Deng Kai used a quick dash to outmaneuver the younger player, who was half a year younger than him, and delivered a powerful cross pass.

Robbie Fowler made a brilliant run, completely shaking off Raul Bravo's defense, and scored his second goal.

The ball goes in as the player arrives.

Starting from the eighth minute, Manchester City scored three goals in just six minutes.

The winner of today's match was announced directly.

I like playing football on the ground: Ronaldo thought I was going to assist him.
