After Bayern Munich stole the ball in the backcourt, he made a long pass directly to Lewandowski in the frontcourt.
After passing the ball, Bayern Munich's defense began to press forward very disciplinedly, pulling Gabriel Jesus, who had just rushed forward in the attack, to the back.
However, Gabriel Jesus was not in a hurry to run back, and walked back slowly.
However, Bayern Munich's pass was not able to find Lewandowski, but was blocked by Rodri.
Rodri passed the ball to Li Mingyu.
Li Mingyu started to advance along the right road.
Gabriel Jesus As soon as he saw the opportunity to attack, he quickly ran back, preparing to return to the defender. From his current position, if he passed the ball, it would be offside!
However, what surprised Gabriel Jesus was that Li Mingyu kicked the ball directly.
The linesman's flag was immediately raised.
Seeing this scene, the two Bayern Munich players who were about to chase back stopped, with narrow smiles on their faces.
Is it offside again?
However, what surprised them was that their goalkeeper Neuer actually ran out of the penalty area and rushed in the direction of the rolling football.
However, they are not too surprised, because it is well known that Neuer likes to attack.
But what's going on with the frightened expression on Neuer's face!
Alfonso Davis, who was already standing there and no longer pursued, felt a figure rushing out beside him. He didn't react at all, he just saw the number behind the figure.
No. 10!
Li Mingyu rushed out from Alfonso Davis and received the pass passed to him a second ago.
Continuing a fierce attack from the side of Neuer, Li Mingyu wiped past Neuer.
Neuer looked at Li Mingyu who rushed past him with a dejected face, and lost the idea of continuing to pursue.
The unguarded Li Mingyu brought the ball into the penalty area, pushed it gently, and pushed the ball into the empty goal.
The referee made a gesture validating the goal.
But the Bayern Munich players were still confused. They thought the ball was an offside kick!
The referee didn't want to talk to them.
Offside?
Offside!
If someone passes the ball to you, is it considered an offside kick?
In fact, the Bayern Munich player was confused by the linesman's flag and thought the ball was offside for Gabriel Jesus.
But Gabriel Jesus is very smart and knows that he is in an offside position, so he has no intention of catching the ball. Therefore, there is no such thing as offside.
As a result, Alfonso Davis thought that the opponent was already offside, so he habitually stopped chasing.
But their goalkeeper Neuer saw Li Mingyu passing the ball and did not stop and ran over.
So Neuer abandoned the door and walked out.
But he is too far away from football.
In the end, this conceded goal made Bayern Munich, who likes to cause offside, reap the consequences.
After scoring, Li Mingyu came to the sidelines again and celebrated his goal with "Li Somersault".
The fans at the scene were also impressed by Li Mingyu's magical operation just now.
I didn't expect that I could take advantage of the opponent's desire to cause offside!
Etihad Stadium has become a sea of joy again.
After the players of the Bayern Munich team appealed to the referee to no avail, they looked at the Manchester City players celebrating on the sidelines with a depressed look.
2:1, the big score came to 5:3. For the Bayern Munich team, overtime can only be played if they score two goals.
Shortly after the restart, the first half ended.
With a big two-goal lead, Manchester City returned to his dressing room.
Team Bayern Munich can be said to be the strongest team Manchester City has encountered this season.
Regardless of the lineup or the tacit understanding of cooperation, the other party is no less than Manchester City.
Manchester City Even if we are two goals ahead now, it is not so safe.
Because today the opponent's forward Lewandowski seemed to have found the rhythm of the game.
In the first half alone, Lewandowski had five shots and hit the door frame four times. If Ederson hadn't performed so bravely, maybe the Bayern Munich team would have evened the score.
During the halftime break, Guardiola once again emphasized that Lewandowski must be properly guarded and not give him a chance to easily get the ball.
When necessary, even if he takes a foul action, Lewandowski cannot easily take a shot.
For this Poland striker, Guardiola knows the opponent's scoring ability too well.
He didn't want the opponent to have another "five goals in nine minutes" miracle in front of his team.
At the beginning of the second half of the game, neither side made any adjustments.
As soon as the game started, Bayern Munich pressed forward across the board, putting huge defensive pressure on Manchester City.
Lewandowski frequently retreated to get the ball, putting Manchester City's defense in a dilemma.
Guardiola frowned, looking at the changes taking place on the opponent's field, and couldn't help but look at the 34-year-old Bayern Munich head coach Julian-Nagelsmann on the other side.
Julian-Nagelsmann is only one year older than Lewandowski, but he has already become the head coach of the Bayern Munich overlord Bundesliga.
Although this coach is very young, his resume is already very rich.
He became the assistant coach of Hoffenheim's first team at the age of 25, and is also the youngest first team assistant coach of Bundesliga.
The next year, he became the head coach of the Hoffenheim first team.
In the 2015-2016 season, Nagelsmann helped Hoffenheim, which had hit rock bottom, avoid relegation in a thrilling manner. In the end, it was only one point more than Eintracht Frankfurt, which was ranked third from the bottom. Before he took over, Hoffenheim was ranked last among Bundesliga.
After successfully relegating, in the second year, under the guidance of Nagelsmann, Hoffenheim seemed to be a changed team, finally ranking fourth in the league and qualifying for the Champions League play-offs.
However, they were defeated in the battle with Liverpool, which brought their first Champions League trip to a halt.
However, after Nagelsmann ended this season, what shocked everyone was that Hoffenheim ranked third in the league and directly obtained the quota of Champions League.
For the first time, team Hoffenheim appeared on the field of Champions League.
Although the final result was 3 draws and 3 losses, ranking last in the group, Hoffenheim went from a small village to the highest stage of Europe football. This is already a huge miracle.
The name Nagelsmann has also entered the eyes of many top teams.
In the 2018-2019 season, Hoffenheim could no longer create miracles, and ultimately ranked ninth in the league and missed the European war.
And Nagelsmann also left Hoffenheim and came to another magical team Bundesliga.
RB Leipzig.
