Newcastle went to Manchester to challenge the first league opponent "Blue Moon" Manchester City in the 08-09 season.
After the Thai Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra took over, Manchester City received considerable funds and invested considerable funds, and successively bought stars such as Elano, Benjani and Martin Petrov. The strength is not bad!
Although just in August, the Thai man Thaksin had to resign as the chairman of Manchester City because of corruption and fraud in his country, but the acquisition of the Arab investment company Abu Dhabi did not weaken the team's financial resources, but instead provided more transfer funds for the coach Mark Hughes...
Recently, it has even been rumored that Manchester City intends to acquire the Brazilian cycling prince Robinho from Chelsea, which shows its strong financial resources...
Newcastle invested more than 5000 million pounds in the transfer market this summer, which is already considered an extremely money-burning Premier League club, but compared with Manchester City's squandering of [-] million pounds, it is nothing!
Two teams that have also undergone a major summer change, who will have the last laugh?
15:00 PM.
The sun is shining brightly in Manchester, and the City Stadium is packed!
force--
The referee Matthew Taibi blew the whistle to start the game!
Wearing the traditional sky blue uniform, Manchester City took the lead to kick off from left to right.Mark Hughes, who succeeded the Swede as the coach of the city stadium, sent the strongest lineup of Blue Moon——
Goalie Joe Hart.
The back four are Onuha, Richards, Ben Haim and Zabaleta.The midfielder Dutch international De Jong, Elano, Martin Petrov and Sean Knight Phillips occupy the midfield position!
Brazilian star Ruo and Zimbabwe beast forward Benjani appeared on the front line!
"...We invested more than Newcastle in the summer, and the team has a bigger goal than Newcastle, so there is no doubt that we will bring a hearty victory to all Manchester City fans at the City Stadium!"
This is the challenge that Manchester City coach Mark Hughes vowed to send to Newcastle in the pre-match press conference!
Facts have proved that Mark Hughes did not pay attention to Madman Lee and Newcastle. After burning nearly [-] million pounds to introduce many famous big-name stars, the confidence of the former famous Manchester City star has swelled to accommodate the entire earth!
Therefore, at the beginning of the game, Manchester City, which occupied the advantage of the home court, launched a sharp attack amidst the thunderous cheers of the Manchester people by bluntly!
Martin Petrov and Knight Jr. are both breakthrough wingers known for their absolute speed. Their wing attacks did pose a great threat to Newcastle.
Mark - Hughes' purpose is indeed very clear.
The Manchester City coach is going to use two sharp wing knives to continuously break through up and down to suppress the wing attack that Madman Li is best at.In the middle of the Manchester City team, the fierce defensive Nigel De Jong firmly guarded the team's backcourt. The Dutch international used all his strength to fight for fan protection at the front of the penalty area!
In the frontcourt, the newly promoted Brazilian international Elano relied on his tough style of play and good organizational skills to support him in the center, continuously creating opportunities for his teammates Ruo and Benjani on the front line!
Obviously, Mark Hughes adopted a very sharp offensive and defensive tactics.
In addition to the starting 11 players, there are also a group of well-known and well-known players on the Manchester City bench. The strong lineup gives Mark Hughes more choices and confidence in deploying troops. This is the source of his confidence when he uttered wild words to challenge Madman Lee at the pre-match press conference!
In fact, Newcastle played really hard in the first 15 minutes of the game!
The ball possession ratio is 30.00% four vs. 60.00% six. In terms of shooting, Manchester City hit the goal frame four times, which is four times that of Newcastle... At least from the point of view of ball possession and shots, Newcastle has indeed fallen into a comprehensive disadvantage!
"...Before the game, people were very curious about what kind of starting lineup Madman Lee would send out in his first game in 08-09. After all, this summer he almost changed Newcastle's first team. Now the answer is finally revealed..."
The game was broadcasted by satellite, and the very characteristic teasing tone of the TV commentator Sester appeared in the ears of all the fans who were not watching the game without any suspense——
“喜鹊的阵容从上赛季疯狂的4-3-3回归到了4-1-2-1-2，不过纽卡斯尔最大牌的球员罗纳尔多并没有出现在首发阵容中，疯子李延续了热身赛的锋线搭档，迈克尔-欧文和赫尔南-克雷斯波这一高一快的组合成为了首选……”
"...the veteran Alan Smith appeared in the front midfielder, Juan Mata and Russian star Andrei Arshavin were on the two wings, the veteran midfielder Makelele, four defenders Zhirkov, Steven Taylor, Mamadou Sakho and David Thornton lined up...It's crazy, this is a defense with an average age of less than 20 years old..."
"...Nicolas Gigi, the youth player who stood out in the warm-up match, entered the squad without accident. If Newcastle can lead by a big score, Madman Lee should let this handsome little guy make his Premier League debut..."
……
The game was postponed bit by bit amid the shouts of the city stadium!
Manchester City had an absolute advantage, but did not score until the end of the first half.
In the first half, the score was 0:0!
Ruo Ruo, the Brazilian star who joined Manchester City from CSKA Moscow at a price of 1700 million pounds, does not seem to be in the right condition, while the Zimbabwean beast forward Benjani, under the marking of the "Little Superman" Steven Taylor, who has been ripened by Lao Li, has not found a chance to score...
Instead, the Brazilian midfielder Elano used his excellent long-range shooting skills to test the Irish national goalkeeper Given several times, causing the fans in the stands of the city stadium to scream...
For Newcastle, the breakthroughs of the two wingers Juan Mata and Arshavin were bright spots, but due to the lack of cooperation with their new teammates, coupled with the suppression of Knight Jr. and Martin Petrov, the four killed nothing!
……
15 minutes later.
force--
"...The second half of the game has begun! Aww, Crazy Li took the lead in making adjustments... He replaced the Russian player Arshavin with the German teenager Sami Khedira, and replaced the offensive player with a defensive midfielder. Does Crazy Li want to counterattack?"
On the field.
After Sami Khedira came on the field, according to the tactical requirements conveyed by Li Tongfan during the intermission, he was firmly attached to Manchester City's midfielder Elano like a rice cake...
The task that Lao Li gave Khedira only had eight words——
Do not seek merit but seek no faults!
So soon, under Khedira's rogue defense, Elano's threat was greatly reduced, and he could no longer calmly score the ball and shoot from long range as in the first half. Newcastle goalkeeper Shay's life became much better in an instant!
However, although this substitution successfully curbed Manchester City's offensive, it did not help Newcastle's offensive. With Derong's strong and fierce midfielder on the field, Owen could not get the chance to sprint forward with the ball, and his power was greatly reduced...
Argentine center Crespo, who has just returned to the Premier League from Serie A, obviously has not fully adapted to the power confrontation of the Premier League!
The two strikers of the Magpies misfired together!
The game lasted for nearly seven and 10 minutes, and the score on the court remained at 0:0.
Gradually, the Manchester City fans in the stands of the City Stadium became dissatisfied.
The club spent a lot of pounds and euros in this unfinished summer. They originally thought that the team would be able to reborn and play in the first game of the new season, but the current scene is obviously far from their expectations...
Sporadic boos sounded from the stands.
It seems that Manchester City fans do not respect and tolerate Mark Hughes as much as Newcastle people treat Madman Lee!
The reaction of the fans forced Mark Hughes to make a change!
73 minutes.
Mark Hughes used the offensive midfielder Ireland to replace Martin Petrov, who was already a bit exhausted in repeated sprints, but the effect was not obvious, and turned to storm Newcastle's center, trying to open the gap through the delicate footwork of the frontcourt players...
After Ireland played and Elano echoed each other, the pressure on Khedira and Makelele gradually increased, and Newcastle's front door was once again jittery...
……
Stretch your arms, kick your legs, and then stand in front of Li Tongfan and twist your waist...
The players on the bench stared dumbfounded at Ronaldo sneaking up on the sidelines, blocking the boss's view of the pitch, and constantly making all sorts of weird moves!
Li Tongfan moved one meter sideways to the left calmly, ignoring this fat man playing tricks, and continued to pay attention to the game on the field!
Ronaldo rolled his eyes, followed closely, and started a new round of swinging his arms and legs!
Li Tongfan moved again.
Ronaldo followed without hesitation!
"Okay, fat man, what exactly do you want to do?" Li Tongfan couldn't help laughing: "Tell me, what do you want?"
"I want to play, look, the team needs someone to score goals now, that guy Heerlan is dying, he has no energy, boss, let me go up to replace him, I want to use goals to impress the bastards of Manchester City..."
"...Well, Hernan is indeed running out of energy. It seems that I have to switch to a striker... Should I let Jiji warm up? This little guy performed very well in the warm-up match..." Li Tongfan pinched his chin and pretended to be thoughtful.
The fat man was angry: "Boss, please pay attention, standing in front of you is the greatest striker in the world, Mr. Ronaldo, I think you need to re-evaluate the strength of the team's striker..."
Speaking of this, Ronaldo's face changed, and he suddenly showed a flattering smile: "Boss, it's fine if you have me, that guy Gigi is too young to be bumped!"
"But your weight..."
Ronaldo quickly lifted the hem of his jersey: "Yi's acupuncture is really amazing, I have lost 10... er, no, 20 catties!"
Li Tongfan found that the fat man could vaguely see the appearance of six-pack abs. He deliberately hesitated for a few seconds, and finally nodded: "Okay, you still have 15 minutes to show the charm of the greatest star on the planet. If you can't score, then the next game...huh!"
……
The 77th minute of the game.
The fourth official held up the electronic card, and Newcastle made a substitution——
Exit Hernan Crespo, enter [Alien] Ronaldo!
Facts have proved that Madman Lee's terrifying on-the-spot substitution has been verified once again. Ronaldo, who came off the bench, shook his fat buttocks like chicken blood. After receiving the ball from Alan Smith in the 84th minute, he moved around in the penalty area and broke through the goal of Joe Hart with a very concealed shot...
This is the only goal of the game!
1:0, Newcastle won the first victory of the 08-09 season in the city stadium with difficulty but luckily! ——
Thanks to: Flying in the flames, Brother Linqiong Zhuo, XMQXJ, Book Stinker, 9z Lord of the Gods, Mala, Yexi, Poor Young Master, and Flying in the flames for their support!
Ming? Boss Lucifer, another ten thousand, I am under a lot of pressure...
