Messi was so scared that he cried when he maxed out his header talent at the start of the game

Chapter 529

In Spalletti's pre-match vision.

This game should be about the team pressing Manchester City hard in the backcourt and constantly charging towards Manchester City's goal.

As a result, the game started for more than 10 minutes.

Roma still failed to form a threatening shot.

The reason is.

In the hinterland of Manchester City's backcourt, the ubiquitous Manchester City No. 9.

Everyone thought that Stuart had no choice but to let Su Fei play as a defensive midfielder, but Su Fei performed like a world-class defensive midfielder on the court.

Running over a large range, timely defense, tough confrontation in one-on-one situations, flexibility and balance that are completely inconsistent with his tall body.

Su Fei became the most solid barrier in front of Manchester City's back line.

Assisting teammates again and again to resolve Roma's frontcourt offensive.

...............................................

21st minute of the game.

Cassano dribbled the ball to the side and made a cross from the bottom, but Podolski failed to get a chance to head the ball.

The ball was cleared out of the danger zone by Roma defender Mex.

Pizarro got the ball in the middle.

He made a straight pass.

He accurately found Totti in the frontcourt.

He initiated a counterattack for Roma.

Totti changed direction and successfully broke through Barton, then continued to accelerate.

"Bang!!"

Seeing Totti approaching the top of the penalty area.

He was about to have a chance to score a goal.

Su Fei descended from the sky.

He rushed out from the side.

He fell to the ground and slid to send the ball flying. Totti was also shoveled to lose his balance and fell to the grass.

The cheers of the Blue Moon fans broke out at the Etihad Stadium.

"Here it comes!!"

"Su Fei's sliding tackle intercepts!"

"Once again blocked Roma's quick counterattack!"

"This ball!"

"If Su Fei hadn't intercepted it, Manchester City would be in danger. Not only could Totti do it himself, but Vucinic and Mancini also cooperated."

"With Totti's passing creativity."

"Roma is likely to get a threatening shot."

"But Su Fei's violent sliding tackle once again shattered Roma's offensive fantasy!"

"3 times!"

"So far, Su Fei has made 3 accurate sliding tackles, with a 100% sliding tackle interception success rate!"

In the ESPN live broadcast room, Wang Tao was very excited.

When you see the familiar super striker suddenly become an iron-blooded defensive midfielder, it is a wonderful sense of freshness.

-【Wow, it turns out there is a saying! I wronged Stuart. He is a genius to think of letting Su Fei play as a defensive midfielder! 】

-【He can shoot to conquer the world when he advances, and he can slide to defend the country when he retreats. This is Su Fei. From now on, he can no longer be called an all-around striker. He is directly an all-around ball tyrant! 】

-[Su Fei, awesome! ! ! ]

-[Does it mean that our Manchester City will have its own wall? ]

Not only the commentator and the fans were excited.

Stuart on the sidelines couldn't help but cheer after seeing Su Fei successfully tackle again.

"Beautiful!!"

"Well done!"

"Su!"

The old man didn't sleep all night yesterday because he learned that four main players were absent.

Now the anxiety is being melted away by Su Fei's performance.

And his original anxiety.

was transferred to Spalletti, the head coach of Roma, who was not far away.

Spalletti paced back and forth on the sidelines of the court.

He shouted and gave instructions from time to time.

"Pull to the side!!"

"Pass to the weak side!!"

"Pass more!"

"Pay attention to the position of teammates!!"

Spalletti really didn't expect that Cannavaro, Zambrotta and Martinez were missing from Manchester City's defense.

But suddenly Su Fei appeared!

Moreover.

The pressure Su Fei brought to Roma's offense was even greater than Martinez.

He was taller, faster and stronger than Martinez.

Damn it.

How can such a statement be made?

A high center forward suddenly transformed into a defensive midfielder, and he did better than his own main defensive midfielder.

This is outrageous!

Spalletti wanted to curse a long time ago.

But there was no way.

The game was still going on. If Roma wanted to win, they had to score 4 goals away from home.

And now, more than 20 minutes into the game, Spalletti was still waiting for the first...

...................................................

In the following time, Roma had to consciously avoid Su Fei and constantly adopt the tactic of transferring long passes in the frontcourt.

Such long passes.

Although it slowed down Roma's frontcourt attack rhythm

But it did achieve some results.

Let's put Su Fei aside.

Manchester City's defense today is really not good.

Bale, who plays as a left back, has little experience and basically plays as a forward this season.

Distin, the hero of last season's championship, is only a starter in the Premier League.

Dunn and Sun Jihai can hold on.

Barton, who partnered with Su Fei as a defensive midfielder, was obviously unable to keep up with the pace of the game soon after the start.

................................................

In the 32nd minute of the game.

David Pizarro made a straight pass.

Vucinic blocked Barton behind him and successfully received the ball.

Then before Su Fei's defense came.

A cross pass.

The ball was sent to the feet of Mancini, a teammate on the right side away from Su Fei.

Mancini swept across the penalty area.

Followed by Vucinic who cut into the middle.

Shoot the ball.

The ball flew towards the goal, and James tried his best to save it, but Vucinic's touch point was very low.

The ball flew over James' head.

"The ball went in!"

"The ball went in!"

"Roma, who had been unable to attack for more than 30 minutes, finally got what they wanted and scored the goal they had been dreaming of!"

"An assist from Mancini!"

"Vucinic scored a goal in the penalty area!"

"The score is 3:1!"

"Roma successfully scored a goal!"

On the court, Vucinic, who scored the goal, knelt on the grass excitedly and raised his arms, and Mancini also ran over to hug him.

Spalletti on the side of the court, after a long sigh of relief, ignited hope in his heart.

It seems that if you avoid Su Fei's attack.

There is indeed a saying.

Manchester City's current defense line is no different from paper.

Stuart began to get nervous.

While Roma was celebrating.

He kept emphasizing to the players on the back line.

"Focus!!"

"Must stay focused!!"

"Pay attention to your position!!"

At this moment, Stuart really wanted to have more Su Fei on the back line.

Roma has gradually come to his senses.

He understands that he has to play around Su Fei.

This means that Roma's offensive is really coming.

But.

Some people.

Even if they are no longer in the forward position, they can still make great contributions to the team's offense.

Critical moment.

That man.

Will definitely stand up.

.................................................

In the next 10 minutes, Manchester City was overwhelmed by Roma's continuous offensive.

The goal was shaky.

In the 43rd minute of the game.

Roma's offensive resumed, with Mancini, Pizarro and De Rossi on the right making short passes.

Successfully sent Mancini to the baseline.

Mancini made a triangle pass.

The ball flew to the middle.

Vucinic, who was advancing in the middle, saw that he was about to touch the ball, but Su Fei suddenly rushed out and intercepted the ball facing his own penalty area.

Then.

Su Fei picked up the ball and turned around, pushing Vucinic away, and accelerated in the middle.

The ball was exchanged.

Vucinic reacted quickly and chased Su Fei.

"Bang!!!"

Before he could touch it, Su Fei raised his leg high and hit the bottom of the ball hard.

The ball was sent out by Su Fei.

This ball was high and far, crossing the midfield, and flew accurately to Cassano who was running wildly on the left side of the front court.
