Football: Start with 99 stamina, prevent vomiting Rio

August 7!

23:30 Xiaguo time!

Still the familiar Tencent Sports!

Still the familiar iron triangle combination!

Last season, Tencent Sports was the first to grab the exclusive copyright of the Bundesliga and Dortmund.

It can be said that it made a lot of money by paying!

So after learning that Lin Jie will go to Manchester City in the Premier League in the new season.

Tencent Sports also immediately attacked and used its strong capital to grab the live broadcast rights again.

But after all, the Premier League is the league with the strongest competition and commercial development among the five major leagues.

This time, Tencent Sports did not get the exclusive live broadcast rights.

But obviously for fans, they are also used to the commentary of this iron triangle, and most people still choose Tencent Sports.

"Okay! Dear viewers, welcome to watch the first round of the 22/23 Premier League season!"

"West Ham United will face Manchester City at home at the London Stadium!"

"I believe everyone has been looking forward to this game for a long time!"

"Everyone wants to see how Lin Jie will perform after joining the new club!"

"Then let's wait and see!"

"I am your old friend Zhan Jun! This game will still be explained by me, Coach Zhang and Sun Jihai!"

Zhan Jun is still the most familiar opening.

"Haha! Indeed, I am also looking forward to what kind of performance Lin Jie can play in Manchester City and the Premier League!"

"I heard that Lin Jie said he wanted to win seven titles in the Premier League!"

"And from the pre-season press conference, all the Premier League teams are ready to snipe Manchester City!"

"West Ham United is not a soft persimmon that can be easily squeezed!"

"I think they are also ready to teach Lin Jie a lesson tonight"

"It depends on what kind of performance Lin Jie can bring us in his debut in the Premier League Manchester City today!"

Although Coach Zhang is the commentator, he is more nervous than the players.

After all, this is also Lin Jie's first game in the Premier League!

The confrontation and rhythm of the Premier League are different from those of the Bundesliga!

Not to mention that Lin Jie also attracted a lot of hatred before the game!

"Indeed, Lin Jie's words at the signing ceremony were a bit sharp!"

"This first debut is still an away game, West Ham United is not an easy bone to chew."

"Especially West Ham United's midfield, with Thomas Soucek and Declan Rice as the double defensive midfielders, the defensive ability is very strong!"

"And both of them are no worse than Lin Jie in height and confrontation!"

"I don't think Lin Jie will be able to get a good deal!"

"And Lin Jie joined Manchester City at an awkward time, and there was not enough time for them to run in well!"

"You know, the confrontation and rhythm of the Premier League are still very different from the Bundesliga!"

Sun Jihai also gave his own opinion on this game.

However, Sun Jihai's opinion seems to be extremely pessimistic that Lin Jie can play a brilliant performance in his Premier League debut.

"Alas!"

"Hahaha, do you think I'm going to say that Lin Jie's debut will definitely be a bad performance?"

"Alas! But what I want to say is!"

"That's the magical oriental boy who created countless miracles for a season!"

"Even if the confrontation and competition in the Premier League are more intense!"

"Even if West Ham United is a tough nut to crack!"

"But I believe in front of our magical oriental boy!"

"All miracles are possible!"

"Maybe we will witness another perfect debut performance!"

Obviously, Sun Jihai's final turn also stunned countless viewers.

Similarly, the two commentators who were colleagues were also stunned by Sun Jihai's sudden turn.

"Ah! This! Ji Hai, you've made a big turn!"

"I was just about to reply to your words, but you made a 180-degree turn!"

"Although what you said is right, we witnessed Lin Jie's sudden rise like a dark horse last season and won the Bundesliga triple crown."

"But this is the Premier League after all!"

"The rhythm of the game has changed a lot!"

"Lin Jie's strength has indeed been greatly improved after a season of precipitation and growth."

"But I think Lin Jie still needs a process of adaptation!"

"Today's debut may not be particularly eye-catching!"

As a long-term commentator of the Premier League, Zhan Jun obviously has his own understanding of the Premier League.

He is still not optimistic about Lin Jie's debut tonight.

"Hey!"

"Then I have to stand on Ji Hai's side this time!"

"After all, Ji Hai said that it is our magical oriental boy!"

"I believeAfter coming to the Premier League, Lin Jie can still carry forward his title!"

Coach Zhang still stood firmly on the side of supporting Lin Jie this time.

Zhan Jun looked at the two partners who sang against him and shrugged helplessly.

"Well, since you believe in Lin Jie's strength so much, we can only see it in the game!"

"First, let's take a look at the starting lineups of both sides!"

"Manchester City still used the familiar 4-3-3 formation in this game!"

"The goalkeeper position is Ederson from Brazil!"

"The four players in the backcourt are right back Kyle Walker, central defenders Nathan Ake and Ruben Dias, and left back Joao Cancelo!"

"Akanji, who was introduced from Dortmund, did not seem to be put in the starting lineup by Guardiola."

"It seems that we still need to run in and run in!"

"In the midfield, it is Kevin De Bruyne, Rodri Hernandez, and Lin Jie! ”

“Manchester City’s midfield trio is very imaginative!”

“It depends on what kind of chemical reaction they can have!”

“As for the forwards, the left winger is the familiar Jack Grealish, and the right winger is Phil Foden, known as the Prince of Manchester City!”

“And the center forward is naturally Haaland, who was just introduced from Dortmund in the new season!”

“This lineup is very strong on paper!”

“But after all, Haaland and Lin Jie have not been running in with the team for a long time.”

“What kind of chemical reaction this lineup can have remains to be verified.”

“Okay, let’s look at the home team West Ham United. Tonight, David Moyes still took out the most familiar 4-2-3-1 formation. ”

“The goalkeeper is Lukasz Fabianski from Poland! ”

“The four defenders are Vladimir Caofar, Ben Johnson, Kurt Zouma, and Cresswell!”

“Thomas Soucek and Declan Rice form a double defensive midfielder.”

“The three midfielders are Gerald Bowen, Manuel Lanzini, and Pablo Fornals!”

“Michel Antonio is the lone striker.”

“If nothing unexpected happens, this West Ham United lineup will still focus on defensive counterattacks!”

“Then let’s not talk too much, let’s see what kind of exciting game both sides can contribute to us! ”

……

On the field, as Zhan Jun finished announcing the starting lineup, the captains of the two teams had completed the pre-match guessing session!

Tonight, the first team to kick off is Manchester City, who is playing away!

Tonight, the 60,000 seats of the London Stadium are full!

West Ham United fans want to see why the new players that Manchester City spent more than 200 million to introduce are worth such a high price!

With the referee's whistle, the game officially began!

Manchester City kicked off first!

West Ham United is obviously also afraid of spending a lot of money to introduce Lin Jie and Harlan Manchester City.

In addition, they are the weaker side compared to Manchester City.

So West Ham United adopted a defensive formation right from the start.

The 4-2-3-1 formation also chose to retreat at the first time.

The overall formation was compressed relatively flat, with only Antonio left at the front point, and the other players retreated to the backcourt to defend.

Manchester City, who kicked off first, was also not in a hurry in terms of offense.

The offense progressed slowly.

For Manchester City, this first game of the new season still needs to consider the team's running-in

More importantly, they want Lin Jie and Haaland, who just joined the team in the new season, to integrate into the team's system as soon as possible.

Attacking to widen the gap is not Manchester City's first choice.

So at the beginning, both sides played at a slower pace.

And this slower pace is still more advantageous for the defending side.

After all, when the attacking side's attack is not like a tide, the defending side has enough time to breathe.

In addition, the number of defenders is relatively superior, and Manchester City's offense has made no progress for a while.

But after all, Manchester City is no longer It's the same Manchester City as before!

After the introduction of Haaland, they also have a high point in breaking dense defenses!

There is no need to choose to pass the ball back and forth in front of the penalty area like the 6-4-0 formation against Dortmund before!

Now Manchester City can also try to frequently find Haaland in the penalty area for header bombing at 45 degrees!

And Haaland in the penalty area also frequently reaches out to his teammates to give the ball.

However, Manchester City has very little training and cooperation in this aspect before.

For a while, there was no good 4 pass.5-degree cross.

Although Lin Jie also joined Manchester City at the same time, Manchester City itself has its own set of passing and controlling system.

Lin Jie's rash joining also disrupted Manchester City's original ball control rhythm and passing and controlling system.

So in the first game of the new season, Lin Jie has not yet fully integrated into the team.

The ball was not at Lin Jie's feet for a long time.

The ball was more at the feet of Grealish and Foden on the left and right roads, as well as the midfield core De Bruyne.

As old teammates, the three of them cooperated smoothly.

But unfortunately, the cooperation between the three of them and Haaland in the penalty area was not so smooth and skilled.

Several times in a row, De Bruyne or Foden looked for Haaland in the penalty area at 45 degrees from the outside, but either the pass was too high or the pass was unsatisfactory.

Often Haaland stretched out his hand to ask for a good position, but the ball was not passed.

Or the ball was passed, but Haaland was not fully in place.

But this is a process that Manchester City needs to go through.

After all, they used to pass and control to penetrate the opponent's defense before, and this kind of 45-degree cross bombing still needs to be practiced.

And although Haaland was very active in the penalty area, he was facing West Ham United's central defender Zouma and the midfielder Rice who performed quite well.

With these two people's double-teaming and defense, Haaland's header was still difficult.

Compared with the Bundesliga, the Premier League encourages confrontation more.

Even though Haaland's confrontation is still top-notch in the Premier League, he still suffered a little loss in the scale of confrontation.

So Manchester City's several offensive attempts did not produce any effect.

Manchester City's several offensive attempts did not give enough threat, which also greatly increased the confidence of West Ham United, which has been defending!

In the eyes of West Ham United players, although Manchester City spent a lot of money to introduce Haaland and Lin Jie, it seems that there is not much improvement in offensive firepower!

Even the powerful offensive firepower that should have been Manchester City's ground passing and control has stagnated!

This made them want to counterattack and attack!

After all, everyone in the Premier League is not a weak team. Although I admit that I am weaker than you on paper and mainly play defense, I am not without the ability to counterattack!

And weak teams often need to rely on counterattacks when playing against strong teams!

Next, Manchester City's frontcourt attack is still trying to find Haaland in the penalty area.

In the Champions League semi-finals last season, Manchester City faced Dortmund's intensive defense tactics, which was greatly hindered in that game!

Even in the end, Lin Jie seized the opportunity to complete the steal, and then the one-stop counterattack led to Manchester City's elimination.

So this time Manchester City's attack is more about finding Haaland in the penalty area.

After all, this game is the first game of the new season, and Guardiola is not in a hurry to grab points.

More is to run in the team, develop new offensive methods, and train Manchester City's new tactics to break dense defense!

West Ham United players are also very clear about Manchester City's training ideas.

But West Ham United is not a toothless tiger that will only passively wait for Manchester City to keep attacking!

West Ham United has the ability to counterattack!

Soon in the 24th minute of the game!

West Ham United found an opportunity!

It was still Foden who turned and crossed the ball after going down the bottom, looking for Haaland in the penalty area.

This time Zouma moved in advance and cooperated with Rice to successfully double-team Haaland!

In fact, Foden's cross was good this time. After all, he tried so many times and got a feel for it.

As a left-footed player on the right wing, the direction of the cross after turning back was not bad.

But Zouma, who was stuck in position at the front point, easily headed the ball to Socek who started to run in the frontcourt to respond!

The originally compressed and flat West Ham United formation bounced up quickly like a spring!

Socek immediately made a straight pass and quickly pushed forward to Gerald Bowen who had already started to counterattack!

Due to West Ham United's retreat.

Manchester City's offensive formation was also relatively forward.

Especially the left back is Cancelo who prefers to attack forward.

This time, Soucek's straight pass and Jarrod Bowen's counterattack easily passed Cancelo who was too forward!

Quickly advance to Manchester City's half!

As a mid-to-upper-level Premier League team, West Ham United's counterattack is definitely one of its signature skills!

For a while, Manchester City, which was originally expected to be a long-term attack, encountered big trouble!
