At the 45th minute of the first half, the fourth official on the sidelines raised a sign to indicate that 1 minute of additional time was needed in the first half.
The score on the field was still 2:0. After Manchester City attacked wildly for a while, they also slowed down the pace of the game. After all, high-intensity running would be unbearable even for them, even if they are iron men.
Bayer Leverkusen can also take a breath.
In the last minute of stoppage time of the first half, Bayer Leverkusen's possession of the ball and Manchester City's defense retreated.
There is a small tacit understanding in the hearts of both parties, just to get over it for a minute.
Even the referee frequently looked at his watch and estimated that he would blow the whistle to end the first half on time at 45 minutes and 59 seconds.
It was originally going to be fine, just you and me, and it would be fine after the first half.
Who would have known that at about 45 minutes and 45 seconds, Aranguiz passed the ball back to Tapsoba, and Tapsoba didn't know what was wrong with his brain and kicked the football into Manchester City's half.
Li Mingyu was already walking slowly, but suddenly he felt something. When he looked up, the football happened to fall within his defensive range.
And there are no Bayer Leverkusen players around here to rush for it.
Li Mingyu's eyes lit up, and he gently removed the ball with his chest.
Although the ball was passed very roughly, the Bayer Leverkusen players were just a little dissatisfied with Tapsoba.
But the first half is about to end. In ten seconds, what else can Manchester City do? Can they score a goal in ten seconds?
Looking at the Bayer Leverkusen players who had a loose lineup and wanted to get off work as soon as possible, a mocking smile appeared on Li Mingyu's lips.
"Start the assault!"
Suddenly, a golden avenue appeared in front of Li Mingyu. On this avenue, Bayer Leverkusen's defense was very weak.
At 45 minutes and 51 seconds, Li Mingyu started from the center circle.
At 45 minutes and 52 seconds, Li Mingyu passed the absent-minded Wirtz.
At 45 minutes and 53 seconds, Li Mingyu passed by the pretentious Demirbay.
At 45 minutes and 54 seconds, Li Mingyu passed by Aranguiz, whose expression changed drastically.
The referee no longer looked at his watch, but quickly followed Li Mingyu as he ran.
At 45 minutes and 55 seconds, Bayer Leverkusen's defense finally recovered and began to organize its defense. However, facing Li Mingyu, which was already starting at full speed, they could only stand helplessly and watch Li Mingyu dribbling the ball past them.
At 45 minutes and 57 seconds, Li Mingyu rushed into the penalty area and scored a single goal.
At 45 minutes and 58 seconds, facing the attacking goalkeeper, Li Mingyu used his special skills.
There is a slow motion on the left and right, and a slow motion replay on the right and left.
Goalkeeper Hradecky told himself clearly in his heart that it was all a fake move.
But the honest body says, I know, but I can't control how much I send!
At 45 minutes and 59 seconds, Li Mingyu saw Hradecky falling to the ground and gently rubbed the football with his right foot.
The football was like a naughty elf, flying high over the head of the desperate Hradecky.
At exactly 46 minutes, the football fell from a height and bounced into the gate of team Bayer Leverkusen.
The goal, which is like a work of art, makes everyone crazy about it.
The entire BayArena was silent for almost three seconds, and then suddenly a round of applause rang out, and then another round of applause. Finally, from sparse applause to all Bayer Leverkusen fans standing up and applauding with sincerity.
Li Mingyu once again used his skills to conquer the fans of a team.
The referee also blew the whistle at the right time to end the first half.
Watching Li Mingyu and Bayer Leverkusen players walking off the court while joking with the Manchester City players, they all looked at a loss.
What happened just now?
In ten seconds, did we really lose the ball?
When they came to their senses, all the Manchester City players had returned to the players' tunnel, leaving only six or seven Bayer Leverkusen players still on the court recalling what had just happened.
Suddenly, the fans at the scene let out huge boos.
Everyone's attention came to the door of Bayer Leverkusen.
There, two players wearing black jerseys struggled with each other.
Damn it, what's going on!
Bayer Leverkusen's players on the court and the substitute players who had not left the court quickly rushed up and pulled the two apart.
Dragovic and Tapsoba again.
There are some bruises at the corners of Tapsoba's eyes, which are the result of Dragovic's direct punch.
There was also a trace of blood coming out of the corner of Dragovic's mouth. He sucked the corner of his mouth hard, took a sip, and spit out a mouthful of bloody saliva.
What happened just now?
The fans at the scene may not know it very well, but the fans sitting at home watching TV know the cause and effect of this very well.
Because, the TV station was very considerate in replaying everything that just happened.
Dragovic walked up to Tapsoba and expressed dissatisfaction with his pass at the last moment.
The 32-year-old Dragovic has been playing for Bayer Leverkusen for 7 years and is Bayer Leverkusen's veteran.
The 24-year-old Tapsoba has only been with Bayer Leverkusen for less than 3 years.
Regardless of his qualifications or age, Dragovic has never been too fond of this black boy from Africa.
Because Tapsoba has threatened his position.
The two had been having conflicts for some time.
In today's game, Tapsoba's performance made Dragovic even more dissatisfied. The two goals conceded were all due to his mistakes.
So Dragovic rushed in front of Tapsoba after the game and scolded him angrily.
Tapsoba, who is from Africa, is not a mediocre person. Faced with Dragovic's angry rebuke, all of a sudden, old and new hatreds came to his mind.
Tapsoba roared angrily and pushed Dragovic away.
Dragovic didn't expect that Tapsoba was so smart. He was knocked to the ground by Tapsoba without any precautions.
The goalkeeper Hradecky, who had been watching coldly, smelled something bad. Before he could step forward to stop him, he saw Dragovic jumping up like an enraged lion, raising his fist and hitting Tapsoba directly in the face.
Tapsoba screamed, and the punch hit the corner of his right eye, causing a sharp pain that made Tapsoba couldn't help but close his right eye.
But Tapsoba, who grew up on the streets, was not a good boy, so he punched Dragovic on the chin. If Dragovic hadn't reacted quickly and dodged, this punch would have definitely knocked him out.
However, the punch still hit his chin, causing his teeth to bite the corner of his mouth.
After that, the two struggled together.
Goalkeeper Hradecky rushed over, trying to separate the two, but the swinging fists of the two people, who were already really angry, kept hitting Hradecky.
Damn it, don't hit me, I'm an ally!
Fortunately, other Bayer Leverkusen players came over in time and rescued Hradecky.
Bayer Leverkusen's head coach Hannes Wolf was shaking with anger. Although he was only 41 years old and did not have that much coaching experience, he had never seen his players fight each other on the field.
Fortunately, the referee had already left the court at this time. Otherwise, the referee might have directly shown two Red Gem Promotion Card and sent these two heroes home directly.
However, even so, in the second half, it is impossible for these two people to play again.
The Manchester City players, who had returned to the locker room long ago, never imagined that such interesting things would happen on the court after they left.
If I had known earlier, I would have come back later.
At the beginning of the second half, Manchester City discovered that the opponent's lineup had changed.
Both main defenders have been replaced.
What kind of operation is this!
However, after knowing the cause and effect, the Manchester City players looked at the Bayer Leverkusen players differently.
Okay, you guys Bundesliga are really fancy at playing. If you have any problems, you can solve them directly on the field. You will definitely not be sloppy.
Brother said Rui Sibai!
It doesn't matter that two defenders were replaced, but after experiencing this turmoil, the Bayer Leverkusen players' minds are no longer on the court.
As a result, in the 50th minute of the second half, Li Mingyu stepped in from the back row, received the ball from Gabriel Jesus, and directly shot a long shot through the door of Bayer Leverkusen.
Hat trick completed.
In the fifty-fifth minute, Li Mingyu was replaced by Guardiola.
Facing this team of Bayer Leverkusen who have no fighting spirit, Guardiola will not let their favorite general stay on the court for one more minute.
If you are hurt, who can you talk to for explanation?
Li Mingyu hugged Guardiola after leaving the field, sat back on the bench, and watched the rest of the game.
As a result, at BayArena, Bayer Leverkusen fans wearing black jerseys seemed to have come to hold a funeral for Bayer Leverkusen.
0:5, Champions League In the first game of the group stage, Manchester City showed everyone their bloodthirsty side.
Bundesliga's strong team Bayer Leverkusen, in front of Manchester City, was like a low-level league team and failed to threaten Manchester City's goal throughout the game.
There were zero shots in the game, which also made Bayer Leverkusen lose face.
The most talked-about thing is that Bayer Leverkusen's defense generals are fighting each other.
Although Bayer Leverkusen replaced these two people in time in the second half, after the game, the head referee completely wrote this matter into the referee report and submitted it.
Two days later, UEFA issued a penalty notice to Bayer Leverkusen.
Dragovic and Tapsoba were suspended for two games and fined 20,000 euros each.
Bayer Leverkusen club fined 100,000 euros.
As soon as this penalty came out, the entire Europe football world laughed.
Bayer Leverkusen is really big-eyed this time.
Our own players got into a fight on the court and were eventually suspended for two games. You know, their next opponents in this group were Barcelona and AC Milan. These two games were basically for nothing.
After three games, it is estimated that Bayer Leverkusen will be out of luck.
Suddenly becoming an experience baby, Bayer Leverkusen felt very unhappy.
Barcelona and AC Milan sent friendly handshake emoticons to Manchester City respectively.
After the first game of Champions League, Manchester City returned to China and faced its first strong opponent in the Premier League league.
The four crazy demon Arsenal.
Arsenal's current league ranking is third, which is very inconsistent with his status.
In this game, Manchester City is ready to show mercy and let Arsenal return to his fourth place.
No need to thank me!
On this day North London, there was a lot of noise.
The Gunners will face the challenge of Premier League leader Manchester City at their home stadium Emirates Stadium.
In the bustling crowd, a delicate-looking beauty was being pulled by another beauty helplessly into Emirates Stadium.
"Bella, you don't have to read in the library every day. You should come out and do more activities. I'm giving you an advantage today. I bought two tickets for the Arsenal vs. Manchester City game. I originally wanted to watch it with David, but he injured his leg while playing football today and couldn't come. So let me take you to watch a game!"
The beautiful girl with a delicate appearance and some small freckles on her face, with a slightly red face, was talking loudly to Bella while clearing the way in the crowd.
Bella is Li Mingyu's second aunt's daughter and his cousin.
Bella is a master's student in the oil painting department of University of the Arts London in the UK. He is a veritable academic master.
Today, while she was reading books in the library, she was pulled out of the library by her best friend.
Hearing what his best friend said, Bella rolled her gem-like eyes and said softly, "Catherine, when did David agree to watch football with you, you little nympho!"
Catherine glanced back at Bella angrily, pouted, and said, "Bella, don't tell me if you see through it, we are still good friends!"
Bella smiled slightly. This best friend of mine is 22 years old this year. Although she may look timid, she is also a well-known top student in the media department University of the Arts London.
Catherine usually doesn't have any hobbies, but she loves football. As a girl born and raised in London, her home team since childhood has been Arsenal.
To this day, there is a large poster of King of Highbury Henry on the wall of Catherine's dormitory.
This poster is old, but no matter where Catherine lives, he will always take this poster with him.
The David Catherine refers to is David Jon, the main forward of the University of London school team, who is nicknamed "Little Henry" by University of London fans.
David Jon's playing style is very chic and he is liked by many girls in college, and Catherine is naturally one of them.
However, Catherine, who is a bit timid by nature, was very carefree in front of Bella, but she did not dare to date David Jon.
Looking at Catherine who was pulling him forward, Bella showed a helpless smile.
Arsenal VS Manchester City?
Manchester City?
By the way, my little cousin seems to have heard that he has been transferred to England. Which team is that?
Bella, who knew nothing about football, only knew that Li Mingyu transferred from Spain to England in the summer, but he did not know which club he had joined.
It can't be Manchester City, right?
