Outside the Etihad Stadium, there was a rush of people. From a high place, the endless blue ocean was flooded with occasionally visible patches of red and white.

This blue ocean first boiled after a bus full of blue sky arrived. Countless cheers and shouts made Etihad preview the grand occasion of the competition in advance.

Of course, since it is a grand occasion of the preview game, the huge booing of the home team fans to the visiting team is an existence that must not be ignored.

"Shh~~~Shh!!!"

“FXXX Aren~~~”

International friendly gestures emerged one after another, and England's football hooligans once again opened their eyes to the non-British players in the car. Everyone's anger was quickly revived by these annoying opponents.

"Shit! I haven't been targeted like this before when I go abroad to play ~"

“Make them look good on the court!”

"Um."

It was not until the Gunners' bus drove into the parking lot of the Etihad Stadium that the noise was finally blocked out of his ears. After walking out of the bus, the team members moved to relieve the fatigue caused by the long-distance trip.

Although it is only three hours' drive from London and Manchester, it is indeed uncomfortable to curl up in your seat.

"Okay, go to the locker room, guys."

After everyone had some activity, the professor spoke up and led the team to the locker room of the stadium under the leadership of the staff.

After quickly changing his jerseys and resting for a while, Arsenal appeared on the court without wasting much time. At this moment, their opponent Manchester City had already started to warm up.

This season, Manchester City's main lineup has not changed much. When they faced Arsenal with the Temple Cup, there were only a few more substitutes, but it was these players who made Lan Yue's bench thickness directly raise.

As soon as he stepped into the stadium and looked at Manchester City's half, Liu Feng saw a figure grinning and waving toward this side. Without seeing clearly, Liu Feng could actually guess who it was. Needless to say, he must behave like a child in Balotelli.

This Super Mario has been very friendly to Liu Feng since he was conquered by Liu Feng's performance during the Inter Milan in Serie A, which made Liu Feng feel a lot of affection for him.

Although the conversation between the two teams before the game was actually a bit tense, Liu Feng smiled and waved back to face such a passionate God.

Last season, Balotelli was definitely an indispensable forward for Manchester City. This Italian genius scored 16 goals in 28 games for Manchester City, and was one of the great contributors to the team's final overwhelming Manchester United and becoming the league runner-up.

However, because of Ba Shen's sometimes and sometimes unstoppable brain-pulling operations, he has brought a lot of funny news to Manchester City, which makes fans really love and hate him.

The warm-up of both teams did not last long. After more than ten minutes passed after Manchester City left the stadium, seeing that the players had already warmed up, the professor signaled the team to return to the locker room.

As a result, Etihad's noisy environment calmed down briefly, and both the crowded Manchester City fans and the Arsenal fans gathered in a corner were quieted down together.

The next outbreak will naturally be the moment when both sides enter the stadium and start the game.

In the locker rooms of the two teams, the coaches of both sides are making the final arrangements before the game. Before the game is about to begin, the professor who has mastered the opponent's starting position has made more careful arrangements in several target positions.

As for Manchester City, Mancini was giving the players a speech that was improving their momentum. At his home court, he faced Arsenal, which had been in front of the team several times. His voice strongly drove the players to become more and more excited.

"Go, go fight! Tell them whose territory it is!!!"

"clear!!!"

More than ten minutes later, the locker room doors of the two teams were knocked almost at the same time...

"Hello CCTV, CCTV, audience, welcome to watch the 5th round of the 2012-2013 Premier League season Manchester City's home game against Arsenal. I am commentator Liu Jianhong."

"Hello everyone, I'm Zhan Jun."

When the voices of the two commentators rang out, the two teams had already followed the referee group and walked into the stadium. In this game, Manchester City naturally wore a classic blue jersey at home, while Arsenal wore a away jersey with a big purple base and black shading.

After quickly finishing a series of photos and handshakes before the start of the game, Liu Feng, the captain of both sides of the game, came to the referee to perform the captain's rock-scissors.

"Okay, Kompany walked towards the serving point with the ball. It seems that Manchester City has the right to kick off the first half."

After the service rights were determined, the two teams quickly stood in their respective positions, and the time was slightly stopped when Dzeko and Balotelli stepped on the ball under their feet face to face.

“嘘~嘘!!!”

"Okay, with the whistle sounding, the game officially began, and Dzeko took the ball."

In this game, Manchester City's starting lineup was 442, which is Mancini's common style of play. In terms of the forward combination, Dzeko and Balotelli were one high and one fast, consistent with Arsenal.

In terms of midfield arrangement, David Silva appeared in the left forward position, while the midfield was a combination of Yaya Toure and Xavi Garcia, and the right forward Sinclair.

At the defender, captain Kompany and Sabaleta form a central defender combination, while Krish and Lescott are distributed from left to right, while goalkeeper is the talented goalkeeper Joe Hart, who is still popular in England.

This is the strongest lineup Mancini has lined up in this game. From the first second of the game, Blue Moon's offensive desire was very obvious.

When Balotelli brought the ball back to his midfield teammates, Yaya Toure, who was in charge, organized several passes to cause the pressure Giroud and Liu Feng to return in vain. He fired the first shot of the team's offense through David Silva on the left.

"David Silva dribbled the ball from the left and quickly crossed the half. Walcott rushed to defend and made a direct cross. Yaya Toure, who followed up, took the ball again. After two passes and one pass, Rosici's movements were slowed down and the ball was divided again!"

He directly passed the little tiger on the right side of the Gunner. Since De Jong's position was a little to the right, David Silva had a lot of room to kick the ball the next moment after getting the ball.

So, after pushing forward for a while, the player directly chose to take the lead.

"Select directly to cross 45 degrees, and the ball flew into the penalty area!!!"

"Bang~"

"Decko headed back and Balotelli shot directly!!!"

"Bang!"

In the midst of lightning, Lan Yue's first knocking on the door came.
Chapter completed!
