On the coach's seat, Martin Joel's face looked extremely ugly. If he could maintain such a score at the end of the first half, perhaps Fulham still had a chance to win this game, but now the result is hard to predict.81                                                                                                   

On the other hand, Van Basten couldn't help but cheer up and recovered a goal in the first half, which undoubtedly relieved Manchester City's pressure in the second half.

Although Van Basten has absolute confidence in his disciples, he can't just have confidence in football games. Even if his strong opponents are still likely to capsize in the gutter. Van Basten has experienced enough of this since his player age.

As for equalizing the score, Van Basten had thought about it, but he also knew that this possibility was not great, even if Manchester City started again with the momentum of Ruhong, it took advantage of Ruhong's momentum to launch a fierce attack again.

But in contrast, Fulham further retreated, and the word "bus" in front of the door kept ringing in the mouths of commentators from various countries in the following time.

However, no matter how many commentators and fans there are, they will have no impact on the game. The real decision is the players on both sides and the head coach on the sidelines.

It looks good and ugly. It is a luxury choice for a team that has always been weak. Points are the most practical things. Of course, there are also some paranoid head coaches, such as Martinez, the head coach of Wigan Athletics.

In the end, the score remained until halftime. Although Manchester City continued to attack wildly, unfortunately they still failed to score again. Under Fulham's intensive defense, Manchester City's forward did not get any good opportunities.

Back in the locker room, Van Basten took the lead in apologizing for his insufficient performance in the pre-match arrangements, and did not expect that Fulham's opening tactics would be a problem for their coaching staff and his head coach.

However, conceding two goals in a row is a problem with the players on the court. It is understandable that they were attacked by the opponent's tactical tactics, but the second goal was conceding something was wrong.

While admitting his mistakes, he also pointed out the players' mistakes. Van Basten's move convinced the players. Since he was wrong, he naturally needs to correct them.

"In the second half, Feng, Yaya, you strengthen your long-range shots, and, James, you replace Nigel." Van Basten made adjustments in the second half, which was also the first time Van Basten made a substitution during the halftime break this season.

Soon, the players on both sides returned to the stadium, "Oh, Manchester City actually made adjustments during the halftime break. It seems that Van Basten is very dissatisfied with the score."

Compared to Manchester City's substitutions, Fulham maintained his original lineup, and their defense contraction did not change, leaving only Peterridge to cruising there in the frontcourt.

Manchester City kicked off, and the first shot came from forward Van Persie, but this was a long shot. Before Van Persie could enter the penalty area, she had already received a pass from Li Feng.

Although he has been teammates with Li Feng for only more than two months, Van Persie has fully appreciated Li Feng's incredibleness. Even during this period, he has always been glad that he chose Manchester City but not Manchester United.

The moment he received the pass from Li Feng, Van Persie understood Li Feng's intentions, so Van Persie did not rush into the penalty area with the ball, but instead directly shot a long shot outside the penalty area.

On the goal line, Schwarzer's performance was still excellent. Van Persie's long-range shot was a bit unexpected, but Schwarzer still blocked Van Persie's shot from outside the goal.

Two minutes later, Milner, who was substituting De Jong, also completed a long shot. Li Feng and Yaya Toure both made a goal for him. Milner inserted from the back and shot a powerful long shot slightly far from the top of the arc and was saved by Schwarze again.

I have to say that from the beginning to now, except for Li Feng's solo in the first half, Schwarzer's performance is definitely much better than Joe Hart's, and his saves are several times more than Joe Hart's.

Fulham counterattacked again, and De Jong was substituted and liberated Ruiz to a certain extent. This time, Fulham's counterattack was inspired by Ruiz.

He sent a straight pass after passing a pass from his teammates in the street near the midfield. Peterridge broke forward with great difficulty, but unfortunately, his degree was still not as good as Clich.

However, Rodalega reacted quickly. Gao inserted from behind and Petrić passed the ball decisively, but Sabareta blocked Rodalega in time.

Another quick counterattack failed, and he could only pass the ball back to Ruiz, who took the ball with the opportunity and double-teamed Yaya Toure and Li Feng to pass it to Peterridge again.

The latter was fouled by Clich. Although the referee did not take out the cards, it was Fulham's free kick. Manchester City fans complained about this.

If Manchester City had such two free kick opportunities, perhaps Manchester City had tied the score at this moment, but Manchester City did not have a good free kick opportunity. Even if Fulham made a foul, he would choose a very good position. This can be seen from the opening game that Fulham had never won the ball.

Louis's free kick was not as good as the first half. Although the ball crossed the wall, it did not fly towards the goal and flew directly to the stands.

In the next period of time, Manchester City firmly controlled the rhythm of the game, and the offense was even higher and higher. But even if Manchester City's offensive was like a huge wave, the small boat of Fulham never capsized.

"Manchester City's second substitution, Dzeko, Manchester City striker came on the court, and he replaced Zabaleta, oh~~ Manchester City hasn't been so desperate for a long time."

"It's good to say from another perspective. Although the result of the game is not known, Fulham can make Manchester City work so hard, and it is definitely the only team this season. Even giants like Arsenal and Juventus cannot cause such trouble to Manchester City."

On the other hand, seeing Van Basten's substitution, Martinyol finally made the first adjustment in this game. Defender Kelly replaced Peterridge, and Fulham was about to keep the defense to the end.

However, in China, there is a saying that "it will lead to a loss after a long time of preservation". These four words can be used not only on the court, but also on the court.

In the 79th minute of the game, Manchester City finally equalized the score. Relying on a long shot, Dzeko's appearance still played a very critical role.

Dzeko used his impact to suppress Fulham's defense firmly in the penalty area. Li Feng, Milner and Yaya Toure once again broke into the outside of the Fulham penalty area.

However, this time the shot was Li Feng, Yaya Toure and Milner took Sidwell and Berdera away respectively. Li Feng received a return pass from Yaya Toure at the back point, and then shot out the most exciting long shot in the game.

"goaL~~~The ball entered, Manchester City finally tied the score. In the 80th minute of the game, Fulham's crazy defense finally broke under the wind."
