Such a scene makes Manchester City fans naturally very excited! Who doesn’t know what Shiraba is capable of?

This kind of opportunity is simply to give points to Baiye!

“White leaves!”

“White leaves!”

Therefore, at this moment, the fans in the stands broke out into a neat and unified cheer!

They shouted the name of Shiraba.

Cheer for the captain of their team, the god on the field! Burnley’s players also know something is wrong!

And this is also a very fatal weakness of Deitch’s Burnley tactics!

Afraid to fight back quickly!

Compared to other teams in the league, which frequently change formations, Burnley is relatively single-minded and always uses the four-four-two formation.

Four four two as a long-standing formation in the history of world football.

The two-striker configuration has a strong impact, and can create great threats through individual ability and cooperation between opponents in the box.

The four midfielders have to take on a lot of responsibility in the game, both offensively and defensively.

The regular combination of four backs combines hardness, experience and passion.

Ability to effectively intercept opponents’ different offensive methods in front of their own goal.

Burnley has three main characteristics in the offensive end: First, long passes at the back

Since Pep Guardiola, Klopp and other world-class managers entered the Premier League.

More and more teams are turning to short passes to advance the team’s overall attack.

The players in the squad are also gradually developing in the direction of relatively small height but excellent skills on their feet.

But under head coach Deitch, Burnley took over the torch of Stoke City, the “sky city”.

Unique in the league continues the traditional tactical long pass of English teams.

It is very different from other teams, due to the shortcomings of the player’s individual foot technique and the explosion of the player’s physical fitness.

Burnley does not force control the ball in the game, but mostly adopts the tactic of direct long passes into the opponent’s penalty area during sports battles and set-piece attacks.

There have been many times in key competitions to achieve very good results.

But as the flip side of the coin, too many risky passes make it impossible for the team to keep the ball at their feet.

The average possession rate and pass success rate are only 40% and 68% respectively, ranking first and second from last of all teams.

This invisibly puts the team’s defensive end under great pressure.

2. Wing crosses

This is mainly because they have a high school forward, strong physical fitness, and the ability to score goals by bombing from above!

Third, two penalty control

Burnley focused on strengthening the team’s control of the second point through targeted tactical arrangements, and thus achieved excellent results.

But on the defensive end, they don’t do as well! Fear of defensive counterattacks!

Due to the formation characteristics of the team 442 and the reason why the midfield needs a lot of manpower to participate in receiving and passing.

During the athletic battle during the game, Burnley’s players will press very much.

But once there is a passing error.

The team’s flaws in the offensive and defensive transition phase, the player’s slow running speed will be particularly highlighted!

Causing them to be very afraid of the opponent’s quick counterattack.

The other is too many fouls!

As a traditional English team, Burnley’s defense was very fierce in the game.

So far, they have committed 265 fouls, received 43 yellow cards and sent 4 penalties in the box.

The 3 negative data rankings are very high!

So now!

When Bai Ye easily threw off the defense.

Burnley’s players have a hard time keeping up with the defense!

They are all doing their best to defend the Manchester City players around them, trying to make the white leaves have no passable route.

But is this possible?

White Leaf told Burnley with practical actions! What is called unstoppable!

White Leaf accelerated the sprint, throwing off Hendrick while also making Benjaminmi in front dare not easily come up to defend.

Can only be prevented and retreated.

Otherwise, he was worried that he would also be easily passed by Bai Ye.

As long as he keeps retreating, it is impossible to be passed!

But the white leaves are getting closer and closer to the penalty area line, and the Burnley players are a little panicked!

Who doesn’t know that Bai Ye has the ability to shoot super from a long distance, and is also a one-hit killer near the penalty area line!

Now there has already been a stir.

And Baiye also made corresponding moves! Boom!

He jerked a kick on the football!

But this kick is different from the shot everyone imagines, this is a straight ball!

And Ronaldo was the first to rush out under the defense of Michael Keane! Baiye’s pass was just a little before Ronaldo started!

If it’s any later, the ball is offside!

Michael Keane has struggled to defend Cristiano Ronaldo, a centre-back who joined United’s youth academy in 2009 and joined United’s first team two years later.

It can be said that since he was a child, he grew up watching Ronaldo’s football! At this point,

The old idol is not something he can easily compare! Ronaldo took the lead and rushed out.

Shiraba’s pass arrives just in time!

He faced the attacking goalkeeper and rubbed the ball lightly.

The football passed the goalkeeper and easily entered the net!

The ball went in!

In just the first six minutes, Bai Ye assisted Cristiano Ronaldo and scored first! Manchester City leads!

Scoring goals is that easy!

Ronaldo rushed out of the court, jumped high and opened his arms when he landed.

Shiraba ran over.

The two hugged tightly, and then more teammates came up and hugged the two in a group.

Goal! Victory!

That’s what they’re looking for on this pitch!

So every moment of scoring a goal is worth making people feel good!

“White leaves!”

“Ronaldo!”

“Awesome!”

The stands on the side of the stadium, the voices of the closest fans, clearly reached the ears of the players.

The fans were thrilled!

Even in the cold English winter, they are still enthusiastic! They were banging on the railings like crazy!

Even if the security guards hadn’t stopped them, they would have wanted to hug and celebrate the ball with the players!

Burnley’s players shook their heads and returned to the centre circle.

Such a goal, to say that it is not their fault, it is not right, to say that it is their fault, is also wrong.

A thousand words in their hearts come together into one sentence, this is white leaves.

Courtsidelines.

Deitch watched the situation on the pitch change drastically, and Manchester City’s first attack made them concede the goal.

It’s emotionally hard to accept.

But see the whole advance of Shiraba, and the timing of the final pass.

Deitch can only say that everything is just right!

Shiraba plays the most reasonable football, and he always makes the right choice at the right time!

This is the most uncomfortable point for many coaches.

Since he took over at Burnley in 2012, Manchester City, with white leaves, are the only team that has created a sense of powerlessness in his heart.

In the previous season’s game, it was also undoubtedly crushed.

There is not a single room for resistance.

And today, it looks the same.

Many times,

Deitch was wondering if Burnley could have a player with the passing ability of the white leaves.

No other abilities are even needed.

All he needs to pass well enough is he sure to bring Burnley into Europe!

You know, Burnley hasn’t been in a European war zone for fifty years!

Although among the many cities in England, the small city of Burnley in Lancashire does not have a strong presence, with a population of only 87,500.

Burnley’s home stadium, the Turfmore Stadium, is also quite rudimentary, with a capacity of only 22,500 spectators.

No star players, no beautiful stadiums, limited transfer budget.

Deitch’s ability to keep Burnley in the Premier League is quite a remarkable achievement.

But who doesn’t have stronger ambitions! It’s a pity.

Any team, player, manager.

In front of Bai Ye, he will finally sigh, “He is Bai Ye!” ”

Pep Guardiola, next to him, is not surprised by such a goal.

As the head coach of Shiraba.

He’s used to it.

Isn’t this a routine operation?

However, the team is ahead, and he is still happy!

This means that they are one step closer to winning the championship! Soon.

Manchester City players celebrate.

Return to the centre circle and wait for the kick-off.

Drip!

Referee Lee Mason blew the whistle as the game continued.

Ashley Barnes passes the ball back.

This time, Burnley didn’t pass it back.

They passed the ball to the wing and let Goodmondsson on the left move forward with the ball.

Manchester City’s starting line-up today is without Kant.

And the white leaves did not return defense.

This made Burnley’s players attack with the ball and be a little emboldened.

But very quickly.

They find it hard to get the ball in, too! Can only barely cross on the wing!

Boom!

Under defensive pressure, Gudmundsson barely kicked a cross, but the quality was poor.

Ashley Barnes and Andre Gray in the middle, neither grabbed the point.

The ball went to the feet of Manchester City.

Burnley’s style of play was originally based on increasing the number of successes, so crosses were not very accurate and normal.

But with other teams, they can also fight back on the spot and get the ball back.

But this is Manchester City! It’s just about playing with your feet!

Three passes and two leads, and it directly broke Burnley’s counter-grab.

The ball did not come to the feet of White Leaf, and this game, Manchester City still played more relaxed.

However, Burnley’s counter-robbery was very strictly enforced.

Even when Manchester City sent the ball to the half, the opponent always clenched it.

White leaves are okay.

Has absolute speed to throw off defensive players.

But other Manchester City players still don’t like this kind of defense, after all, Burnley really gives you a body!

The risk of injury is still quite large.

Manchester City themselves are playing low-cost, and against a team like Burnley, winning games with minimal consumption is the right path.

So Manchester City tugged at Burnley’s players for a few minutes at the back.

When the ball is kicked into the midfield, it is kicked back into the backfield again.

On the one hand, it consumes the physical strength of the Burnley players, and on the other hand, it is constantly controlling the ball to help Baiye in looking for better opportunities.

Burnley’s kick is a traditional English kick with a long pass rush.

What is a long pass rush?

Long pass punching does not only mean 45 degrees left and right to kick crosses.

On a larger scale, when the team attacks, it does not dwell too much in the midfield to get the ball.

Nor will they patiently get offensive opportunities through midfield passes.

Instead, they drive directly to the opponent’s half, and the attacking players fight to get the opportunity.

Hanging the ball at a 45-degree angle to the center of the penalty area is more of a manifestation of the long pass rushing in front of the court.

The long pass in the midfield is the main play of the long pass rush.

such

Teams with strong physical skills reduce the chance of passing and therefore reduce the chance of mistakes, especially the danger of conceding the ball in the midfield.

At the same time, forwards with strong individual body and ability are expected to gain opportunities through active continuous fighting.

So Manchester City used this combination of ground short passes to consume Burnley.

This is not their strong point.

The effect is also very good! soon

Shiraba suddenly moved sideways and reached for the ball.

Yaya Toure immediately passed the ball in the direction of Shiraba.

Straight past the midfield.

And such a high-altitude ball gives Burnley’s players hope of scramble! If the ground ball can’t be grabbed, can this kind of high-altitude ball still work?!

Two Burnley defenders suddenly appeared beside Baiye, one left and one right sandwiching him in the middle.

Football falls from a height.

Bai Ye glanced at the players on both sides and found the right time to jump high! And he,

Between the two tall Burnley players, there is no wind at all! Even the first to top the football!

This made the other Burnley players a little incredulous.

How strong their teammates are at the top, they know best! And now,

It’s just a complete explosion by white leaves!

Shiraba tops the ball in the air, and instead of pushing the ball far, he pushes it to the neutral position in the middle!

There, De Bruyne rushed up!

In recent matches, De Bruyne has not started because of the continuous pressure on the defensive end because of the continuous facing of strong teams.

Only after Shiraba came off the field, he appeared as a substitute.

And this game he finally started again.

There is also a breath in my heart.

To prove to everyone, Manchester City has no only white leaves, but also midfielders! De Bruyne rushed up quickly and received the football.

And after the white leaves land, immediately pull the side and move forward towards the right.

In this way, it is equivalent to the position of De Bruyne and White Leaf being changed.

This left Burnley’s players with some not knowing how to defend.

Or the main defense against white leaves, or hurry up to block De Bruyne? ultimately

The choice they made was to chase the ball, not people!

Only Ward came up to defend on his side, while the rest of the players rushed towards De Bruyne and Cristiano Ronaldo in front.

At the same time, two central defenders always occupied the box to prevent Manchester City’s starting crosses.

Such a defense does work.

At least De Bruyne’s central midfield, relying only on Raheem Sterling and Cristiano Ronaldo, is difficult to penetrate the defense.

But

Burnley still miscalculated at the point of white leaves! White leaf pulling edge.

De Bruyne saw that there was no good passing point in front of him and kicked the ball towards the white leaf at the first time, allowing him to develop on the right wing.

At the same time, the rest of Burnley’s players immediately leaned towards the right defense! But

Burnley’s players are clearly not fast enough to defend!

Shiraba looked at where the ball was coming.

Swing your legs in place! Boom!

Without any adjustments, it came straight to a kick! Ward was dumbfounded on the side!

This cums?

The football passed all the defenders and flew directly to the right corner of the goal!

Goalkeeper Heaton made a save with all his might.

However, because when he shot from the white leaves, his vision was blocked a little by his tall teammates in the box, and he did not save at the first time.

So when he pounced.

It’s already late!

Crash! Football should be on the net! Two to zero!

In just thirteen minutes, it’s already two to zero!

Such a score, such a scene, made the fans of the Etihad Stadium jubilant!

“World Wave!”

“World Wave again! White leaves are awesome! It’s so beautiful! ”

“This kind of non-stop shooting is simply handsome to explode! I love you to death, Bai Zao! ”

Fans shouted their hearts of praise.

White leaves on the court,

It is the most powerful god in their minds! The whole Etihad Stadium is boiling!

The Burnley players didn’t react until the white leaves rushed out of the pitch to celebrate, and they conceded again!

They shook their heads helplessly.

There’s no way around it at all!

What else can they do?

Walking to the centre circle in disappointment, waiting for Manchester City’s players to celebrate before kicking off? They may not have a choice.

And Bai Ye is receiving the cheers of the fans at this time! A shout gathered together and rushed straight into the sky!

There is only one name left in the entire stadium.

“White leaves!”
