v4 Chapter 7: The first defeat of the season is coming

Is the first defeat of the season coming?

In the first round of the UEFA Champions League group stage in the new season, Manchester City vs. Lyon in the City Stadium. The game had reached the 89th minute, and the fourth Italian referee Gio Peretti raised his placard to indicate stoppage time for 4 minutes.

The score was 0:2, with the home team in front and the away team behind.

The small showers in Manchester in September, like a little love song played by a saxophone, are more suitable for two dark-hearted men and women who have affair in the darkroom, but they are not very good for the football match that millions of people are looking forward to.

In the rain, Guardiola kept roaring vulgarly toward the court, with water dripping on his bald head, without the slightest spirit of being exposed yesterday.

Those who come from Lyon are not good. I thought they would be difficult to deal with, but I didn't expect them to be so difficult.

In 2002-09, Lyon played ten in Ligue 1 and won seven consecutive championships, a record of five major leagues. This kind of thing is quite simple to say, just like Lao Gu wrote a column, after all, the European consecutive championship record is that the two teams of Skonto (Latvia) and Lincoln (Gibraltar) maintain 14 leagues.

And Bayern has now tied the record of seven consecutive games, and will create eight consecutive games this year, as is the case for Juventus in Serie A.

But it is precisely because the world knows what Bayern and Juventus are in Germany and Italy, that they have become more and more admired for the magical history of Lyon.

Seven consecutive championships, which lasted for the four coaches of Santini, Regon, Hollier and Perrin, have also established the status of the first treasure house of Ligue 1 youth training.

However, the flower does not have a hundred days red. Since being ousted from the throne by Bordeaux in 2009, Lyon has no choice but to let go of the Ligue 1 and then watched Paris Saint Eugene also unify the France that once belonged to Lyon five years ago.

Frankly speaking, there are no big names in Lyon now, and no second-line big names. The team's highest value is Dutch striker Memphis Depay. He is in the youth training of Eindhoven and Manchester United. This year, the turnover price of Germany is 19 million.

Even Lyon's coach Bruno Genesio is almost unknown in football.

The 52-year-old Genesio was a common-law deck bench player when he played football. After retiring at the age of 30, he continued to play as a coach.

In 2006, Genesio came to Lyon as a scout and echelon coach, and he caught up with the tail of the club's seven consecutive championships.

In 2011, Remy Garde walked to Marion, he invited Genesio to serve as an assistant in the first team. Spring goes and autumn flows in the camp. At the end of 2015, Hubert Fournier, who had brought Lyon more and more shabby, was fired, and Genesio finally stepped onto the front desk.

Perhaps because of his long-term role as an echelon coach and scout, Genesio is very good at digging young players, and Lyon, one of the famous European black shops, also values ​​his expertise very much.

In Ligue 1's current model of one super-many strong, Lyon did not want to pursue too much. It is his greatest wish to stably score in the Champions League every year.

But Genesio gave Lyon a surprise. He brought the team’s strength in the Champions League into the French Ligue 1. When he met Paris and Monaco, he did not fall behind, and even became the biggest Paris in the league these years. Suffering Lord.

With Fu Wushuang, Lyon’s characteristics of being weak and not strong have made the team still unable to break through the rule of Paris in the Ligue 1 with the standings. Robbing the rich and helping the poor, Lyon is a good fellow in Ligue 1 Liangshan.

Wearing Depay to Lyon is not a gold finger for Genesio, because Depay was the Dutch international in 2014 and was the third runner-up member of the Brazil World Cup.

But now that the team is almost 90 or even 95 years old, they have to admire Genesio's ability to play hurdles.

Ferran Mendy, Ndombele, Oyar, Konet, Fekir, these are all the things that Genesio has been pulling up with **** in recent years.

Depay went from PSV Eindhoven to Manchester United, and then to Lyon. His worth is actually a downward process. After this game, the 25-year-old winger Nabil Fekir is likely to surpass Depay in one fell swoop and become the transfer market. On another'Star of Lyon'.

Fekir, like Qi Zu Scar, is of North African Algerian descent. He participated in the summer World Cup in Russia and made three substitute appearances, but did not participate in the two battles with the Chinese team.

Fekir said that the idol is Zhuo Yang, so whether in the French team or in Lyon, he chose the 18th. However, in terms of function and position, he is more suitable to compete with Griezmann for the successor of Saint Scar.

He is 1.7 meters tall and looks generally wretched. Just looking at his appearance, Fekiel is much more qualified than Grid.

In today's game, Fekir was overjoyed, and the entire Lyon team was overjoyed. Manchester City encountered a strong deja vu.

Two consecutive victories in the league, especially the 11-0 reduction in dimension against Fulham, made Manchester City almost forget the difficulties against Chelsea, Atletico Madrid and Wolves.

Don't analyze the tactical implementation and what pertinence, as long as you see that Zhuo Yang, who has been hot for the past two months, has started to play all the way, and has not scored even now, you know that Lyon is all livestock today.

Compared to the changing tastes of Paris and Monaco, Lyon's style faithfully continues the Ligue 1 tradition, especially on defense.

To be honest, Lyon's type of team defense is not tight. They don't put iron buckets and buses, but they are very tight in the middle, and even if they leak space behind them, they will be the first choice to pounce.

It is not a simple pounce, but also a unique defensive tactical system in Ligue 1, which has weaknesses and distinct characteristics.

Traditional Ligue 1 players generally move quickly, turn around, and have good explosive power. They are tough but not clumsy. It is not unreasonable to produce high-quality animal waists in batches in the past.

Zhuo Yang once sighed with the boss of May for the difficulty of Ligue 1 defense. This style of defense is not much advanced, but it does restrain the shooters who are known for their perfect shooting quality, both of them.

There are many types of shooters. Both Zhuo Yang and Mei bosses are perfect shooters with high quality and high efficiency, and they can complete all the elements needed for shooting on their own. In other words, be good at making **** for yourself.

But Ligue 1’s defensive technical style of opening the containment + sudden grab will disrupt the shooting preparation of the perfect shooter, and the guy in charge of the grab often has very strong secondary athletic ability and it is difficult to completely get rid of it.

In general, Ligue 1's defense is relatively unfriendly to Zhuo Yang. It's not to say how high-end this type of defense is. Point-grabbing forwards like them to ignore their heads. They are purely a matter of style.

But it's not that Zhuo Yang couldn't score when he met Ligue 1. The boss, including May, did not score less. It was nothing more than spending more money and effort to reduce the success rate.

But today's Lyon's state is really overwhelming. By this time, Manchester City's 25:8 shot ratio could not be exchanged for a goal. Instead, they were attacked by their opponents and captured the two cities.

The commentators from all over the country have already started to complain: Zhuo Yang scored 10 in one breath four days ago. Did he use too much force to use up today's goal?
