With a favor, Wang Ai does not refuse, especially when you can exchange something.It's just that I didn't think that Mansour had anything he needed for a while, so this matter was pressed for the time being, anyway, it would take a whole season to start, and there might be any changes at that time, such as Real Madrid suddenly not wanting himself or something.On the morning of the 12th, Wang Ai accompanied the whole Manchester City team south and arrived at the Cardiff Stadium in Wales, also known as the Welsh National Stadium.After simply adapting to the venue, he returned to the hotel, some teammates went out to play, Pellegrini didn't care, Wang Ai was also a little moved, but he gave up after thinking about it again and again.It's like keeping the vows, which have been kept all these years.At 19 o'clock in the evening, the whole team set off to arrive at the stadium, and after the routine was over, it was already 19:40, and Wang Ai walked out of the player tunnel in the middle of the queue.The little caddie assigned to him today was a girl, and her little hand was a little trembling in Wang Ai's big hand, and she looked up at Wang Ai from time to time.Then, he stumbled unawares.As the biggest star in the game, Wang Ai is the focus of attention, and many Welsh fans who came to see the game today came to him, but the female caddie fell, and there was a burst of laughter around.In the noise, Wang Ai squatted down and looked at her with gentle and concerned eyes, and the little girl shook her head and stood up strongly.Wang Ai smiled and stood up, stretched out his hand again, and the two of them joined hands and returned to the queue.At 19:45, the game officially kicked off.Sevilla FC today were all out, scrappy, quick to pass and receive the ball, very aggressive in their movements, and they were difficult for City from the start.Even Wang Ai didn't expect the opponent to be so excited, and when he returned to the half court to pick up the ball and come back, he was ruined by the opponent's out-of-line actions several times.Unlike Manchester City's busy summer, the king of the Europa League, Sevilla, has a very leisurely summer and spends time preparing for the new season.Manchester City's sluggish performance in the Community Shield two days ago has boosted their confidence and they are here today to teach the Champions League winners a lesson.City's chaotic situation continued until the 20th minute of the first half, when Sevilla did not find the back of the net but kept them firmly in the half.In addition, Yaya Toure left the field with an injury shortly after the opening, and Wang Ai had to respond to Pellegrini's request to temporarily return to the half to act as a defender, leaving Dzeko and others alone in front.After observing that Sevilla's offensive had slowed down and that his side had stabilized, Manuel Pellegrini signaled on the sidelines, and Wang Ai re-positioned himself in the opponent's half, ready to attack.It was a coincidence that Navas accidentally handballed the ball while fighting for the ball in the centre circle, and while the Manchester City players were still negotiating with the referee, Sevilla sent a quick shot and sent it straight to the penalty area.Previously, Wang Ai was nearby, with the advantages of his height and long legs, it was difficult for Sevilla to pass so easily, and Wang Ai had just left, and Manchester City's defensive system had not yet fully adapted, so the opponent was in the penalty area with the second big two to get a single knife, and finally hit a low shot.The Chilean took a deep breath on the sidelines: I don't want to be ashamed of the Champions League and lose to the Europa League!
The difficult situation prompted the Chilean to make up his mind, he felt that it was a fool to let Wang Ai play in the back just now, Manchester City's defensive system has long been formed, and it will not collapse because of the lack of a Yaya Toure, but Wang Ai's chaotic entry has disrupted everyone's rhythm, after all, he has never really played the back pivot at Manchester City.With the Chilean's repeated shouts and obvious black faces, Manchester City's big stars finally cheered up, and after Wang Ai returned to the center to open up the space in front, Silva was obviously active, and Dzeko was also frequently penetrated on the perimeter and was pulled back a little bit.But at this moment, Sevilla actually scored again, it was a quick penetration of the wing, and for some reason the Manchester City full-backs made a low-level mistake that led to the opponent penetrating directly into the penalty area.The goalkeeper hit, the opponent was brave enough to hit the goal, and the ball bounced off the goalkeeper's leg and into the goal.Seeing this, Wang Ai, who was in the middle of the front field, stood helplessly and wiped his face, surrounded by cheering Sevilla players.Far away in the living room of an upscale London villa, John Terry and Frank Lampard were getting together to watch the game and drink beer.Frank Lampard's departure, John Terry has long been clear, and he is also clear about the calculations, positions and interests of all parties.Ahead of Frank Lampard's symbolic appearance in the United States, John Terry invited him to his home to watch the game.It's both a farewell and a prospect, as Lampard's next stop will be to join his old friend Wiwi.When Sevilla scored the second goal, and the live camera gave Wang Ai a big close-up, Terry laughed out loud: "Is the TV station trying to tell us that he is not omnipotent?"
”Lampard put one leg on the coffee table in front of him and commented in a very loose manner: "He's not really omnipotent in the first place, he still has to rely on the system, don't you notice that his team-mates don't give him the ball much?
”John Terry turned to look at Frank Lampard: "Didn't you hear there was a problem?"
I was in touch with Milner the other day. ”Lampard picked up the bottle and shook his head and took a sip, then put it down before saying slowly: "Manchester City, it shouldn't be last season's Champions League winners, they weren't ready, it was the king who brought them."
I mean, they have the strength, but they don't have the mental spirit.In fact, when he won the championship, his fighting spirit was not enough, and it was the king's attack power that was too strong, which covered up a lot of problems. ”Terry nodded: "That is, because the abilities of our mutual friends have advanced the progress of Manchester City's growth, but what does this have to do with the moment?"
”"Them."
Frank Lampard casually pointed to the blue shirt on the TV: "You don't have the heart of a strong man, you get carried away after winning the title by chance, and the Community Shield two days ago was not for our mutual friends, and at least three of them."
It was our friends who came on the pitch and gathered confidence and saved them personally, but once again it covered up the problem. ”Speaking of which, Lampard looked up at the ceiling: 'It's like winter, if something delays it, then when it does come, it's only going to be more ferocious. ”"Right now?"
Terry asked.Lampard shrugged: "They think they're okay, Sevilla are not as good as Arsenal, it's a game that can be won easily without a king, so you see, even if you concede a goal, even if the opening is so embarrassing, they tend to do it themselves when they attack. ”Terry was silent for a moment, "So, Frank, can you not go?"
