There were less than fifteen minutes left in the first half.

For Manchester United, it is necessary to complete the equalization of the score while ensuring the defense.

But in fifteen minutes, can they do it so easily against Manchester City's defense?

Welbeck kicks off in the middle circle.

After a while, the ball once again came to the feet of Manchester United's Michael Carrick, and as Manchester United's attacking initiator, he mainly combed Manchester United's attack.

With less than 13 minutes left, the attack had to be planned.

The attack is planned, but City's defensive position will force you to start passing the ball again.

Manchester City, except for Negredo, who remains near Manchester United's central defenders, has retreated to the midfield, reducing the area of activity in the midfield as much as possible, leaving Manchester United with a long pass with big feet.

Carrick has noticed Zheng Lin's side, Zheng Lin's position is relatively lower, which is an opportunity for him, and this opportunity is also given to Manchester United.

Zheng Lin took into account Valencia's impact, he chose to retreat and release space.

This is an opportunity for Manchester United!

After Carrick's initial estimate, he made a long pass with a big foot and went straight to Valencia, who was a competent right-winger.

After unloading the football, Valencia glanced at Zheng Lin's position, and he was a little puzzled, why is this guy so far behind? Are you afraid of yourself?

Besides, my speed doesn't seem to be that fast!

Since someone has given themselves such a spacious space, this is not good to use, then it is a pity to give up directly!

In this way, Valencia broke through with the ball, and after matching his speed, he had enough physical advantage against Zheng Lin, speed and body, and in the subsequent defense confrontation, Zheng Lin was directly pushed away.

With Zheng Lin being topped, many Manchester City fans at the Etihad Stadium have booed, obviously they are a little dissatisfied with Zheng Lin's performance, as fans to support their own team is not wrong.

But after the performance of your own players is not worthy of that one price, in their eyes, you are a parallel product.

In the Bundesliga, this is the Premier League, four games to play, Zheng Lin's statistics are

: goals: 0

assists: 2

passes per game: 99

accurate passes

: 91 accuracy: 91%

but the number of final goals is very small.

For the fans, the team paid a lot of money to buy you, not to defend, but to attack, play a good offense, complete beautiful goals.

If it was really pure defense, it would be impossible to spend such a large price on a future "Makelele"!

It's not that I don't like Makelele here, because with such an iron waist, it is a qualitative leap for the team's defense, but what Manchester City need at the moment is not such an iron waist.

So this is also why the fans are booing Zheng Lin; A player who spent £100 million on the team and ended up just coming to the team to play a defensive situation is unacceptable for them.

The feedback given to them now is that Zheng Lin did not play a role in the face of Valencia's breakthrough, on the contrary, he was directly bumped away by the other party in the confrontation, which is a very "ridiculous" thing for them.

If you change to a full-back or winger for Chelsea, then this is not going to be sieved into a sieve!

For the boos of the fans, Zheng Lin is not unaffected, as a player, he has not been able to gain the support of the fans, which is still quite a lot of pressure on him.

But he also knows that he needs to show a corresponding performance to wash himself.

I don't know if there are too many ideas, this time Zheng Lin found that he was obviously unable to catch up with Valencia, and every time he ran, his right leg seemed to be poured with lead.

It seems that he noticed Zheng Lin's situation, Milner and Konarov both made up for it, which made Zheng Lin feel a little sad in his heart, he is only 18 years old, is he unable to work defense?

At most, he fell just now, this is an injury?

At the same time, he also looked at the state of his system;

[Zheng Lin (in normal condition), there is a slight hard injury on his right leg...]

Hard injury?

Will a hard injury affect my running?

After stopping, Zheng Lin realized that his problem might be pulling the meridians.

If yes, then something is not very good.

"Something is not quite right with Zheng Lin's situation, is this a strain? Or did something else go wrong? "

Judging by the running position he just had, there was a bit of a problem, and it looked like he wasn't using his strength."

However, this still needs to be understood by the situation of the parties.

[You just pulled the hamstring, just slowly!] ]

For the statement of the system, Zheng Lin felt that it was better to wait for the game to check it, just after being shoveled several times in a row, he injured his hamstring, this statement is a bit outrageous!

But fortunately, under the current situation, Zheng Lin recovered.

This situation is not clear even to Zheng Lin himself, although it is said that there is a system, then you can better control the "use" state of your body, but the current situation does not seem to be as easy as said.

"In the face of Konarov's defense, Valencia just passed it? What about Konarov's defense? Zhan

Junjie looked at this situation, he felt a little strange, this is directly erased? This Konarov did not react at all? This shouldn't be!

Wouldn't it be said that this fullback was also injured, right?

For this sudden "no defense", Zhan Junjie is a little strange, it doesn't look like an injury, but like he didn't pay attention, if he was scored, I'm afraid he would really be booed by the fans to the end!

Fortunately, Valencia's crosses are still poor, but his attack is not as bad as expected.

Konarov, who reacted, chased after him, although he did not have an advantage in speed, but he still had to chase back before being scored, otherwise he would really let people score, that is, it was really impossible to say!

In Konarov's accelerated rush, the recovered Zheng Lin also chased back, but the distance is still a little far, if replaced by a super sideline, then this is a nightmare for the entire Manchester City defense!

Valencia dunked the ball, a feint continued to deceive Konarov, he cut inside!

Already to the front of the box, Valencia's inner cut, which is bad news for Manchester City.

Valencia looked at Nastasić, who was about to come up, and he took another step sideways and rubbed his left foot.

"Scored!"

'Antonio Valencia pulled a goal back for United, it was his goal after an inside cut, which was his first goal for the number 25 and his official return!"

"In the 42nd minute of the first half of the Manchester City derby in the fifth round of the Premier League, Manchester United's right midfielder Antonio Valencia pulled a goal back for Manchester United, and the score was already 1-1!"

'This is a game for both sides, it's a game about who can get the lead on the way to the championship, and who wins the game, then there will be a clear advantage for their rest of the schedule.

After being scored, Manchester City did not organize another attack, there was still time in the second half, they still had a chance!
