Chapter 810: Qualifying in Advance
In the newspapers the next day, the results of the League Cup were not the focus of the media attention.
Although in the previous Champions League game, Kaka made a substitute appearance against AC Milan, but it was after the team completely locked the victory and played to adapt to the game.
The League Cup game was Kaka's first appearance after being seriously injured in the Confederations Cup final.
In general, Kaka's passing and athletic ability has not returned to his peak form last season, but he still has goals and assists.
A lot of the media were stunned by this.
They thought Kaka's luck after his move back to Manchester City was a far cry from his situation at Real Madrid.
Of course, some media believe that it is quite difficult for Kaka to squeeze out anyone in Manchester City's frontcourt and become the main force again.
The age is here, and he has suffered a major injury.
But Kaka stopped watching.
At this stage of his career, he has already won all the honors he deserves, so what is there to regret?
"I'll be serious in training and games and when the boss thinks I'm ready, he'll send me on the pitch!"
In an interview with the Brazilian media, Kaka said with a smile.
........
After the League Cup.
Premier League matches resume! 1
Manchester City face Norwich in the eleventh round of the Premier League.
Manchester City's victory in this game is not a surprise to many people, it is only natural.
But... When the game was over, the bloody score made the Manchester City fans on the scene a little unbelievable!
Seven to zero! !
Manchester City beat Norwich 7-0 at home! !
Hazard scored a hat-trick! !
Griezmann scores twice!
Vardy, who came off the bench, also scored two goals! !
A bloody massacre! ! !
Poor Norwich was completely beaten by Manchester City on the road!
"A 7-0 victory!! Manchester City's attacking power is unabashedly displayed, every attack, every shot. It seems like they can make a goal! Norwich is in the best form at Manchester City. When they were away against Manchester City, their luck was really bad."
After the game, "Sky Sports" said in the report.
...
After this game, Manchester City ushered in the fourth round of the Champions League group stage! !
At home against AC Milan.
As the two sides played against each other in the first leg, Milan suffered a crushing defeat at home.
Before this game, many people also believed that this was the battle of Milan coach Allegri.
Once this game, Milan can not come up with a convincing performance of the scene.
Allegri Milan's coaching position will be declared over this weekend at most.
Before the game, some media interviewed Gao Bo and asked this question about the opponent. A reporter asked him if Manchester City would be merciful because of this.
"Going all out is the respect for the game, and I think Allegri agrees with that. As for his position, I think the club should give the manager more patience and support. Allegri is a good coach. , if he is dismissed, it will not be easy for Milan to find a better manager..."
Gao Bo certainly knows the situation of the AC Milan club in the next few years after Allegri is dismissed.
In the next few seasons, in the Champions League, I am afraid that this old European giant will not be seen...
And Allegri was re-employment at Juventus, and it was quite successful.
Of course, all of this is another story. As for whether it will happen in this time and space, Gao Bo is not sure.
But the general trend is like this, it is irreversible.
......
Manchester City certainly did not show mercy in this game.
Manchester City, playing at home, took over control of the game from the first minute.
AC Milan is working very hard to take control of the stadium from Manchester City, but the gap in strength between the two sides is indeed very obvious!
At the beginning of the game, Manchester City continued to attack, and AC Milan's goal was crumbling and precarious.
After that, Allegri also realized that AC Milan is no longer the invincible division that dominated Europe. They have too many problems now.
They simply do not have the ability to play against top European teams like Manchester City.
The most practical idea is to stabilize the defense first and wait for an opportunity to counterattack.
A weak team plays a strong team, isn't that the way of playing?
I have to say that Allegri’s decision allowed AC Milan to temporarily deal with Manchester City on the field.
After all, Manchester City did not score at work!
When the whistle for the first half ended, the Italian commentator was very excited.
"Zero to zero!!! AC Milan didn't let Manchester City score in the first half!!"
"This is quite an easy result. This season, the one that can make Manchester City do nothing in the first half is AC Milan now!"
"Although it looks embarrassed, at the opponent's home court, this is the only way for AC Milan to make a difference at the moment!"
The Italian commentator said excitedly.
However, the excitement of Milan fans did not last long.
Second half, fifty-seventh minute.
Manchester City slowly controlled the ball in the frontcourt.
AC Milan is completely on the defensive.
Italian football is inherently good at defense.
Although AC Milan's lineup is not as luxurious as in previous years, it is still one of the most powerful teams in Italy.
A dead skinny camel is bigger than a horse.
They set up the bus, and there are really some Italian teams that have an indestructible chain defense.
But Manchester City's attack is still better after all! !
When Griezmann took the ball near the top of the arc, he was facing such a complete line of defense.
There is absolutely no space for the pass.
Griezmann made a return pass.
Then AC Milan's defense was about to pop up.
This is also normal.
Because before Manchester City faced such a highly compressed defense line, they first passed back to open up the space.
And AC Milan's defensive system is also very flexible.
City pulled back, and they just popped out a little bit, pushed up a little bit to get a breather.
But this time Griezmann did a fake!
He immediately turned forward and brought the ball into the box!
Then direct right foot volley!
The football goes into the goal after hitting the defender!
A slightly lucky goal to help Manchester City open the scoring!
And after the first goal was scored, the rest of the game was easy to play.
If AC Milan wants to equalize, they must attack.
And once AC Milan attacked, the gap behind them was played.
Manchester City's offense is just fine.
Seventy-third minutes of the game.
The second goal appeared!
Manchester City's midfielder steals the ball and hits a quick counterattack.
David Silva's long ball hit the top of the AC Milan defender.
Then Hazard stopped the ball in the penalty area and threw the ball with his foot!
The soccer ball easily flies from the goalkeeper's armpit to the goal! !
Two to zero! !
Manchester City extend their lead!
And this goal also announced that Manchester City has sealed the victory!
With AC Milan's strength, it is absolutely impossible for them to score more than two consecutive goals in the next 20 minutes without letting Manchester City score.
In the end, the result of the game was two to zero! !
Manchester City beat AC Milan 2-0 at home and scored 12 points in four consecutive Champions League group matches.
And because of another game in the same group, Bilsen draws at home with CSKA Moscow.
Therefore, Manchester City, which is six points ahead of the second-placed AC Milan, has already qualified in advance with two rounds left in the group stage.
