Dortmund's possession!

At the beginning, Manchester City players took advantage of the momentum of the goal they had just scored and launched a more intense fight against Dortmund.

During the halftime break, Guardiola actually explained to the Manchester City players on the field. His round-robin battle.

The Manchester City players on the field also knew that this method was very likely to succeed and had a good chance of success.

Although this high-pressure pressing at the expense of physical energy means that their playing time will be sharply shortened.

About 65 minutes to 70 minutes is the maximum limit they can persist.

Next, more performance opportunities will be given to substitutes.

It can even be said that if this tactic is really successful, after the physical energy of Dortmund players is exhausted.

In the end, it is likely that it is not the current players on the field who help to score and equalize the score, but the substitutes.

This also means that the opportunities they create will be picked by the substitutes.

But the Manchester City players on the field are still faithfully implementing Guardiola's tactical arrangements.

In order to advance to the finals and impact the Big Ear Cup, they are also willing to make some sacrifices!

However, Guardiola is also very clear about Marco Rose's intentions for Dortmund's substitutions.

So although Manchester City launched a fierce high-pressure push in the frontcourt.

But the two defenders and the defensive midfielder Rodri on the back line did not participate in the high-pressure push in the frontcourt.

They were all on guard against Dortmund's counterattack.

And the high-pressure push that Manchester City players in the frontcourt continued to launch at the expense of physical energy was also quite effective.

Manchester City players kept running and constantly pressured Dortmund's ball-holding players to quickly transfer the ball.

Originally, Lin Jie wanted to seize the opportunity to launch a counterattack.

But Manchester City is not a fool after all.

Although the frontcourt continued to launch a high-pressure push, there were always Manchester City players defending Lin Jie.

Whenever Lin Jie wanted to receive the ball and turn around to complete a long pass in the counterattack, he would be tripped or pulled down by the Manchester City players who were defending him.

Moreover, the defenders are often the Manchester City attacking players who are constantly running in the frontcourt and pressing.

For them, a yellow card has little impact at all, as they are about to be replaced due to exhaustion.

In addition, Rodri and the two central defenders are on guard.

Although Dortmund replaced Emre Can, Lin Jie was released to a certain extent.

But Dortmund's counterattack still did not find a good opportunity.

The two sides also fell into a stalemate here.

Dortmund, who took the initiative to control the ball, could only keep transferring the ball in the face of Manchester City's high-pressure pressing.

Sometimes they also need to kick forward through the goalkeeper.

This kind of high-pressure pressing that does not take into account physical consumption will inevitably lead to some mistakes, and the ball was eventually taken back by Manchester City.

However, due to the fear of Dortmund's counterattack, Manchester City's attack after regaining the ball was not as unscrupulous as before.

In addition, Dortmund has the addition of new player Emre Can, and the defense is more stable.

However, Manchester City's offensive players in the front court are still tirelessly consuming their physical energy.

They are constantly cutting and running, pulling Dortmund's defense.

They force Dortmund's defensive players to run with them.

Marco Rose, the head coach of Dortmund, also realized a bad atmosphere on the sidelines.

Soon the game came to the 73rd minute, and Manchester City first made personnel adjustments while taking advantage of the dead ball.

Sterling replaced Grealish, who was exhausted.

Jesus replaced Mahrez, who was also exhausted and began to cramp.

After the substitution, Manchester City's frontcourt once again launched a very active cutting run.

After the substitution, Manchester City's frontcourt, with fresh blood injected, is still playing vigorously and threateningly.

On the other hand, Dortmund's physical energy is constantly being consumed.

There is no fresh blood injected into the defensive end for the time being, and the defensive players are finding it increasingly difficult to defend!

Marco Rose, the head coach of Dortmund, also suddenly realized Guardiola's intention on the sidelines!

This is purely to suppress Dortmund with the foundation of a wealthy club!

The original five substitutions were to make it easier for the head coach to make adjustments.

But now, the substitutions have become sharp knives that pierce Dortmund!

Although Dortmund can also make substitutions.

But Marco Rose knows very well that the remaining defensive players on his team's bench have good opportunities to play except for the full-backs.

Emre Can, the original strongest new force, is already on the field at this time!

And at this critical moment, tradeMarco Rose was afraid of another defensive breakdown due to lack of coordination!

However, Dortmund's two full-backs were running with Manchester City's two wingers, and now they can't keep up with their physical strength.

In addition, Manchester City's new substitutes Sterling and Jesus are both capable new forces, and Dortmund's two full-backs are a bit overwhelmed.

In the 78th minute, Dortmund still made substitutions.

Felix Paslak replaced Thomas Meunier.

Nico Schulz replaced Guerrero.

Pongracic replaced Reus!

This also means that Dortmund has basically given up the attack and plans to officially enter a dead-end defense!

And Guardiola did not hesitate after seeing Dortmund's substitutions.

Directly used up the last three substitutions!

Gundogan replaced B Silva!

Zinchenko replaced Cancelo!

Palmer replaces Foden!

Unlike Dortmund.

There is not much difference in ability between the players on the bench and the starting players of Manchester City.

In many cases, Guardiola will adjust the starting players of each Premier League game, except for a few fixed starters.

In addition, there is a certain gap between the ability of Dortmund's substitutes and the starting players.

This also means that the impact of large-scale substitutions on Manchester City is far less than that on Dortmund!

And this is the foundation and suppression of Manchester City as a giant!

As both sides have basically used up the last substitution quota, the final decisive battle will also be staged in advance!
