King Of World Football

Chapter 792: Punctured Balloon

After the start of the second half, Juventus quickly launched a fierce attack against Manchester City according to the coach's arrangements.

It seemed that the home team regained control, with the Sky Blues retreating almost entirely. The fans in the stands also regained their vitality, constantly cheering for the Zebras.

However, upon closer inspection, Manchester City, though not disorganized, had a very systematic defensive organization, intercepting all of Juventus' attacks.

In the 49th minute, Delph and Cuadrado fell to the ground outside the penalty area after a confrontation, and the referee awarded a free kick to the home team.

Pjanic lofted the ball into the penalty area, and Mandzukic's header was saved by Bravo.

Three minutes later, the home team's consecutive passes into the penalty area were blocked, and Khedira rushed to the top of the arc and shot angrily, but the ball slightly missed the post.

Kompany loudly commanded his teammates to defend and everyone knew that the Zebras couldn't continue their fierce attack indefinitely.

Wang Feng also fell back deep, even directly defending inside the penalty area several times. His eyes rolled around, and the current situation was very unfavorable for Manchester City.

On one hand, Juventus launched wave after wave of attacks, even though they were all blocked, it consumed a lot of their teammates' mental energy. Any slight mistake could lead to a collapse crisis.

On the other hand, they were disadvantaged in the defensive confrontation in the back. Although the main referee wasn't as blatant as in the first half, there was still a subtle bias towards the home team.

For example, a normal confrontation, an excellent tackle, etc., could all become fouls and card-worthy actions, making defensive players gradually hesitant and fearful.

They needed to play tough! It could both strike the opponent's arrogance and boost their own morale.

In the 69th minute, Juventus continued to launch an attack. Khedira sent a through pass from the front, and Dybala suddenly burst out from the crowd, chasing after the ball that had passed the defensive line.

Stones immediately raised his hand to signal offside, but obviously didn't get any response. Fortunately, he didn't fully rely on the referee's decision and closely followed to block the position.

When Dybala controlled the ball, he was already close to the baseline, and the angle wasn't very big, but he still fiercely shot with his right foot.

The ball went straight to the near post, and Bravo quickly dived to save. His fingertips slightly touched the ball, causing it to deflect outward, then hit the post and bounced back.

"Dybala's shot hits the post! So close!"

The danger wasn't over yet. Both teams rushed towards the ball's landing point. Kompany touched the ball first, unable to think much, and quickly cleared it.

The ball didn't fly far, but ran towards the outer edge of the penalty area. Mandzukic followed slowly, seeming to wait for it to go out of bounds for a throw-in to organize the attack again.

But at this moment, a gust of wind swept past him, and Wang Feng sprinted past the Croatian midfielder, hooking the ball back from the sideline.

"Wang!" Accompanied by the commentator's roar, everyone in Juventus felt that something was wrong. Mandzukic quickly accelerated and rushed towards the Chinese superstar, willing to knock him down along with the ball!

Chiellini also rushed forward urgently to block, and Wang Feng reacted quickly. He first lightly tapped forward while shifting his body aside to avoid Mandzukic's charge, then accelerated to chase the ball.

He and Chiellini almost reached the ball at the same time. If the ball's momentum was slightly stronger, it might have directly returned to the Zebras.

There was obviously no "if" in the Chinese superstar's dictionary. He first tapped the ball horizontally, passing it to Aguero who was following up, while he continued to move forward.

At this moment, there was also a large space in front of Aguero. The Italian defender had no choice but to follow the ball to intercept the Argentine forward.

Aguero didn't hesitate, directly sending a diagonal pass, returning the ball to Wang Feng's feet, a standard two-on-one cooperation.

"Manchester City's counterattack! Wang Feng dribbles the ball straight into the goal!"

At this moment, the hearts of the home team's fans tightened, and Allegri even rushed to the sidelines, shouting wildly, gesturing for the defensive players to quickly catch up. He almost wanted to go on the field himself and take down the Chinese superstar.

All the players of the Zebras were quickly retreating to defend. If the Chinese superstar were five years younger, then none of them could keep up with Wang Feng's pace.

However, time waits for no one. Although he was still fast, when he reached the edge of the penalty area, Lichtsteiner and Bonucci had already formed an encirclement.

Wang Feng used his left foot to flick the ball to the left, pretending to forcefully break through from the side, and the two Juventus defenders instinctively followed closely.

They subconsciously thought that the Chinese superstar would surely go solo, after all, the memory of his first goal, bypassing four defenders, was still vivid.

As a result, Wang Feng took two steps and abruptly stopped the ball, then flicked it with his right foot to the middle, luring the defenders, then changed direction to flick it to his left foot, and then sent a diagonal pass directly behind the defensive line.

Sané, who was following up, reached the ball at the edge of the small penalty area and knocked it to the back post. Silva, who was close, stabbed the ball into the net from a close range, completely sealing the victory!

3-1! Manchester City defeated Juventus away and gained a huge lead!
