Chapter 256 Mastery against the foot, surpassing five people in a row
January 2023, 1 is a memorable day for Manchester City fans.
The No.19 round of the Premier League is all over.
Manchester City won the newly promoted Brentford 3:0 at their home court, completing an unprecedented nineteen-game winning streak.
So far, Manchester City has defeated all the teams in the Premier League.
Even the official ins of the FA expressed their blessings to the Manchester City team.
Manchester City's nineteen-game winning streak also widened the gap between them and No.2 Liverpool to ten points.
Liverpool has 47 wins, two draws and two losses with 2 points, which is already very good, but they can only be No.[-] when they encounter Manchester City, which has no flaws.
After this game, the Champions League knockout round finally struck.
Naples, a traditional strong team in Serie A.
Somewhat similar to Manchester City, Naples' jersey is also mainly blue.
When Li Mingyu and the team rushed to the stadium in the bus, Maradona's murals could be seen everywhere on the streets of Naples.
Maradona is the god of Argentina and the god of Naples.
Naples was originally a small club in southern Italy.
On June 1984, 6, when Naples executives announced that they had reached an agreement with Barcelona to transfer Maradona to Barcelona for US$30 million (a world transfer fee record at the time), the Naples fans were all shocked.
They will never forget that day.
On July 7, 5 fans flocked to the San Paolo Stadium in Naples to attend the meeting between Maradona and the fans.
Their god has come.
And Maradona also stayed in this city for the most precious 7 years of his career.
That is, from that moment on, Naples, a small team in southern Italy, came into the eyes of the world.
2 Serie A titles, 1 Coppa Italia title, 1 Italian Super Cup title and 1 UEFA Cup title, such honors have never been won by any southern Italian team.
Two years ago, Maradona passed away suddenly, and the whole of Argentina was moved. In Naples, mourning ceremonies for Maradona can be seen everywhere.
Looking at the city of Naples outside the bus, Li Mingyu was deeply moved. What kind of magical power did Maradona have that could make the whole of Naples become his devout believers?
Since Maradona, Naples has also had many top stars, but none of these stars have any hope of becoming Naples.
Maradona's imprint on this team is so deep that it is almost impossible for anyone to surpass it.
Today, Naples has become a frequent visitor to the top four of Serie A. Although there is no hope of winning the league championship, they can still participate in the UEFA Champions League every year.
However, Naples' best result in the Champions League is only the top sixteen, and has never entered the top eight.
This year, they met the thriving Manchester City team in the one-eighth knockout round. No one would be optimistic about their ability to eliminate Manchester City and complete their historic breakthrough.
When two different blue colors collide together, is the blue from the Mediterranean Sea bluer, or the blue from the Blue Moon?
San Paolo Stadium, oh no, it should be called "Diego Armando Maradona Stadium" now.
This is the fifth day after Maradona's death, the mayor of Naples announced that from today, the stadium will be renamed "Diego Armando Maradona Stadium".
During Maradona's lifetime, this proposal has not been able to pass.
After Maradona's death, the proposal was finally passed.
Outside the Naples stadium, a bronze statue of Maradona was already surrounded by Naples fans.
Entering the third largest stadium in Italy, Li Mingyu had a special feeling.
No team has ever raised a player to such a high status.
If I can also become such a player, I guess I will feel very honored.
The last time Naples and Manchester City met in the Champions League was five years ago.
In the group stage of the UEFA Champions League, the two teams were divided into a group.
Manchester City completed a home and away double play against Naples. While qualifying first in their group, they also kicked Naples to third in the group and missed the knockout round.
This should be the second time the two teams have met in the Champions League.
After the warm-up, players from both sides returned to the locker room.
In the small locker room, Guardiola once again reminded the focus of today's tactics, so that everyone must pay attention to the defense of the two wings.
"Good evening, viewers and friends from Tencent Sports. Welcome to the game we broadcast for you. Today's UEFA Champions League [-]/[-] knockout match is a focus battle, the double-blue battle."
"Naples sits at their home stadium Maradona to face the king of the Premier League, Blue Moon Manchester City."
"Napoli's performance this season is still very good. Not only has it reached the knockout round of the Champions League again, but it is also currently ranked third in the league."
"Needless to say about Manchester City, this season, Manchester City has completed an unprecedented [-]-game winning streak in the five major leagues. It has won all the teams in the Premier League once. It can be called the strongest in the history of the Premier League."
"Napoli needs to be careful today. After two years of training, Manchester City has become a truly strong team."
"Today's home team, Naples, is wearing their traditional blue top and white shorts, while the away team, Manchester City, is wearing their latest away team jersey this year, black top, black shorts, looking murderous!"
"Let's take a look at the starting lineups of both sides. The home team Naples is a 4-2-3-1 lineup that they are good at."
"The goalkeeper is Italian goalkeeper Alex Meret, who is only 25 years old this year. He is 1.9 meters tall and has amazing arms. He is a very good goalkeeper."
"The back four are Mario Rui, Amir Ramani, Kostas Manolas and Giovanni Di Lorenzo."
"The two midfielders are Fabian Ruiz and Bakayoko. Bakayoko is a player that Naples bought out from Chelsea this year. Due to Bakayoko's excellent performance in the midfielder position last season, Naples spent a lot of money to buy Bakayoko from the Milan duo."
"The three attacking midfielders are Lozano, Zielinski and Insigne, and at the top is the Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen."
"Napoli's frontcourt attacking group is very fierce. In this season's Serie A, Naples' attackers have scored 25 goals, second only to the number one Inter Milan."
"Manchester City's away game is still their most familiar 4-3-3 lineup. Goalkeeper Ederson's performance has been very stable recently, and he has zero opponents in three consecutive games."
"At the back, Zinchenko, Stones, Laporte and Walker's old partner."
"The midfielder Rodri has grown into the mainstay of the Manchester City team. Today's midfielder has changed. Gundogan has apologized to the team a few days ago. Guardiola's internal punishment for him has also come to an end. Today, Gundogan will partner Li Mingyu as the double midfielder."
"On the front line, Sterling returned to the starting lineup again, the center is still Gabriel Jesus, and today the right winger Manchester City sent 22-year-old Phil Foden to play."
"With this lineup, it can be seen that Guardiola still attaches great importance to this game. Li Mingyu got ample rest in the days when he was a substitute. In this game, Li Mingyu looks full of energy. He should have a wonderful performance!"
Players from both sides came to the field and waited for the start of the game.
A whistle sounded, and the double-blue war kicked off.
[Congratulations to the host for signing to the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium and gaining the left foot proficiency of the famous Naples star Maradona. 】
Li Mingyu couldn't help but feel happy in his heart. Back footing has always been a heartache in Li Mingyu's heart.
Li Mingyu's right foot is already at the top level in the world, but his left foot is always a little stretched.
In fact, in this world, there are almost no superstars whose left and right feet are perfectly balanced. Even top stars like Messi and Ronaldo have their own dominant and non-dominant feet.
Obtaining Maradona's left foot proficiency is simply a dream for Li Mingyu.
Proficient in reverse footing, for a player, the improvement of combat power is definitely not the effect of one plus one equals two.
Manchester City kicked off first.
Li Mingyu received a pass back from Jesus, and he couldn't wait to try his inverse foot ability.
Seeing the Naples captain Insigne rushing up, Li Mingyu, under the shocked eyes of his teammates, used his left foot to slap the bull's tail once, shaking Insigne so far that he couldn't find the north.
Napoli fans expressed surprise at the feint, but no one was more surprised than the City team-mates.
The ox tail on the left foot can make such a fake action with the reverse foot, this is simply inhuman!
Even Ronaldo and Ronaldinho, who are experts in the oxtail, have never tried the oxtail on their left foot in the game.
Slowly, not only the Manchester City teammates noticed, but even the fans at the scene discovered that Li Mingyu had been kicking the ball with his left foot.
Whether it's passing, catching, or dribbling, Li Mingyu always uses his left foot.
Li Mingyu's name has spread all over the world, and there are almost no fans who don't know him.
Li Mingyu's dominant foot is his right foot, which is known to everyone. When did he learn to play with his left foot.
You must know that reverse foot training cannot be achieved overnight. Many players have been practicing for a lifetime, but there is no way for them to truly learn reverse foot training.
Many top players will look very clumsy if they don't use their dominant foot when they shoot. They have to adjust the ball to their dominant foot.
And Li Mingyu's dribbling with his left foot and extraordinary movements made the eyes of many older Naples fans gradually soften.
If it weren't for Li Mingyu's tall and burly appearance, everyone would have been able to tell.
Li Mingyu's actions were "imitating" Maradona!
Imitating Maradona at the Maradona Stadium, originally, the Naples fans should have responded to Li Mingyu with angry boos.
However, the more they watched, the more fans felt that there was something about Li Mingyu.
If he wasn't too tall, Li Mingyu would be a Maradona!
Even the live commentator in Naples said with a sad face, "Li is paying tribute to Maradona!"
After he had just learned the proficiency of the reverse foot, Li Mingyu had a great time playing, and suddenly a shocking idea came to his mind.
Although the fans in the stands enjoyed watching Li Mingyu imitate Maradona, the Naples players on the field were very upset.
Li Mingyu's dribbling with his left foot actually gave them the illusion that they had faced Messi before, feeling that the ball could be broken by stretching out their feet, but the moment you take your foot, it is when you are passed.
However, Naples' defense did a good job. In 10 minutes, Manchester City failed to make a test shot against Naples' goal.
The 10 minutes of intense offense and defense exhausted both sides' physical strength.
Li Mingyu saw that Naples' defense had shrunk considerably, so he chose to turn around and pass the ball to his central defender Laporte.
Manchester City is ready to play possession and try to draw Naples out.
Continuously falling in the midfield, the Naples players finally couldn't help but forced them up.
Li Mingyu came to the right side of the court and motioned for Zinchenko to pass the ball to himself.
Zinchenko pushed with the arch of his foot and passed the ball to Li Mingyu who retreated.
However, behind Li Mingyu, Lozano of Naples was very close. Seeing that Li Mingyu was about to turn around, Lozano rushed up immediately, trying to force Li Mingyu.
Li Mingyu flicked the ball to the left with his left foot, passing Lozano.
Lozano felt that Li Mingyu was like a loach, slippery and steadfast, he couldn't restrain his inertia, and he was powerless to defend against Li Mingyu who was shaking him away.
Li Mingyu immediately started on the spot, and said silently, "Assault."
From the right side of the field, Li Mingyu waded on the ball with his left foot. During the high-speed running, the football was always about half a meter away from Li Mingyu's body. Such terrifying control ability made it impossible for Naples defensive players to reach out to grab it.
One person, two people, three people, four people, in the end, Li Mingyu pierced Naples' entire defense line, and waded the ball into Naples' penalty area by himself.
Facing the attacking goalkeeper, Li Mingyu used his best pendulum style to knock the goalkeeper to the ground.
With a strong shot, the football was sent into the goal of the Naples team.
After the goal, Li Mingyu raised his arms and shouted wildly. The Naples players behind him looked like they had seen a ghost, and Gabriel Jesus, who was catching up, held his head in shock. Following the lens of the cameraman on the sidelines, they were sent into the sight of thousands of households.
