Chapter 457 Asian Derby
Time has come April without realizing it, and the Champions League quarter-finals are coming soon.
On the first day of the game day, two games were played at the same time.
Liverpool played against Porto at home, and the other game was Tottenham’s home match against Manchester City.
This game is also the focus of this match day, and this Premier League civil war is also the Asian derby game.
The two sides of the game include Lu Yunlong, a representative player of China, and the other is South Korea's representative Son Heung-min.
When they were still in the Bundesliga, they were always compared.
Then Lu Yunlong went to Sevilla in La Liga, and his reputation increased a lot, once surpassing Son Heung-min.
But later Son Heung-min went to Tottenham, and the gap between the two was shortened.
In the end, Lu Yunlong joined Manchester City again and became the current World Footballer.
Now that they are getting bigger and bigger, Lu Yunlong has surpassed Son Heung-min in all aspects.
But in the eyes of some Korean fans, Son Heung-min can still compete with Lu Yunlong.
They believe that the gap between the two is not big, and Lu Yunlong can win the World Footballer because his club is stronger.
So Son Heung-min is not without a chance, and Son Heung-min's performance this season is indeed unsatisfied.
The current situation is that Chinese fans don’t care much about the Lu Sun dispute. They pay attention to this game and hope that Manchester City where Lu Yunlong is located will go further.
On the other hand, some fans actually know that the so-called Lu-Sun dispute is no longer necessary.
Lu Yunlong is obviously stronger than Son Heung-min, both in terms of ability and reputation.
But there are still some fans who don’t think so, which is understandable.
After all, in Cai Jian's previous life, some people compared Wu Lei and Son Heung-min after Wu Lei went abroad.
In terms of speed and running, etc., the final comment was that the two had similar strengths.
But everyone knows that the gap between the two is quite big, and after the news was translated into South Korea, it was a joke by Korean fans.
"Hello everyone, everyone! Welcome to today's live broadcast. Today is the Champions League quarter-finals, Tottenham Hotspur playing against Manchester City at home." commentator Li Chenming said at the opening.
"I believe this game is still very concerned about Asia, especially between China and South Korea."
"There is a representative player of China and South Korea in each team, and they are now first-class stars." Xu Yang continued to comment.
"Among them, Lu Yunlong is undoubtedly more prominent, and has won the World Footballer before and has been recognized by the whole world."
"The two teams are currently doing well in the league. Manchester City is currently ranked first in the standings, and Tottenham also has third place." Li Chenming continued to comment.
"It is worth mentioning that today's game is the first European match for Tottenham's new stadium."
"In the last round of the Premier League, the new stadium debuted for the first time, and Tottenham also defeated Crystal Palace 2-0."
"The first goal in the new stadium was South Korean superstar Son Heung-min. I believe that today's game will be very exciting."
"I'll introduce today's starting lineup. First of all, Tottenham Hotspur, the official gave a 4-2-3-1 formation:
Goalkeeper: 1 Lori;
Defenders: 3 Danny Ross, 5 Vertonheng, 4 Aldweireld, 2 Trippier;
Midfielder: 7 Sun Xingmin, 17 Sissoko, 20 Ali, 8 Winks, 23 Eriksson;
Forward: 10 Kane.”
"Then it comes to Manchester City, the official gave a 4-2-3-1 formation:
Goalkeeper: 31 Ederson;
Defenders: 18 Delphi, 14 Laporte, 30 Otamendi, 2 Walker;
Midfielders: 11 Sterling, 8 Gundogan, 21 David Silva, 25 Fernandinho, 7 Ru Yunlong;
Forward: 10 Aguero.”
In fact, the lineups of both sides are quite powerful, and in Cai Jian's mind, Manchester City may be better.
The midfield and frontcourt combination is indeed strong, with Sterling and Lu Yunlong's two wingers, Aguero, and Jesus on the bench.
They are also top stars in the midfield, and there is also a De Bruyne on the bench.
On the other hand, Kane and Son Heung-min are indeed very strong.
Eriksen is also very good in midfield, but other players are relatively inferior to Manchester City.
It is worth mentioning that Tottenham's head coach is still Pochettino.
Under the leadership of Pochettino, Tottenham performed very well this season.
In Cai Jian's previous life, he led the team to the Champions League final. But I don't know if Tottenham still has a chance to advance with Lu Yunlong's qualifying.
Anyone who is familiar with Pochettino knows that he was in Southampton before coaching Tottenham.
He is also the pride of Southampton fans, and after he came to Tottenham, he was also loved by Tottenham fans.
Because he gave the game he liked to Tottenham fans, even after he was fired, Tottenham fans still supported him.
Even after Mourinho coached, some fans still hoped that Pochettino would come back.
As a head coach, Pochettino is very outstanding and has strong coaching skills.
With the referee's whistle, the game officially began.
Today at the new stadium, more fans came than before.
It is also his first time to visit the new stadium today, and he did not catch up in the Premier League before.
There were a lot of Tottenham fans coming to the scene today, and they came to cheer for their team.
They hope to successfully defeat Manchester City at their home court and the new stadium in Europe.
Manchester City launched an attack just one minute after the game started.
David Silva received a straight pass and rushed into the penalty area and shot directly. Unfortunately, his shot was a bit crooked, and the lineman also raised his sign to offside.
Although this offside was offside, it seems that Manchester City is still very motivated.
Recently, due to the debut of the new stadium, some fans of other teams think that Tottenham fans have become arrogant.
Manchester City had a slight advantage in the first few minutes after the game started.
Manchester City has been in good shape recently, and in the mid-season, Manchester City was not yet the top spot in the league.
But later Liverpool did not seize the opportunity, and now Manchester City has successfully surpassed Liverpool.
If it continues, Manchester City will be the Premier League champion this season.
It is worth mentioning that they won the Premier League championship last season, and if they win the championship again, they will have two consecutive championships.
And their recent good form has continued to the European game, and they are very hopeful to eliminate Tottenham Hotspur and advance.
Moreover, Manchester City performed so well in the Premier League, there is no reason not to defeat Tottenham.
The two teams fought once this season, and Manchester City finally defeated Tottenham Hotspur 1 goal.
But in the eyes of Tottenham fans, Manchester City is not invincible, they have the strength to defeat Manchester City.
