Pochettino organized the language and said seriously: "Llorente, I know that you have a lot of experience in the competition, you have played for Athletic Bilbao, Juventus, Sevilla and other teams!"

"But I still have to tell you that our opponent today is different!"

"They are Manchester City, Manchester City who are number one in the Premier League, their attacking ability, their ability to take chances, very strong!"

"But they're also our defeated men, understand?"

"We can respect their strength, but we should not be afraid of it, and we should not be afraid of it."

"My requirements for you are very simple, after you play, you don't need to be too aggressive, participate in the attack, you can do your defensive duties well, watch Chen, understand?"

Llorente nodded heavily, and he issued a military order, "Head! Rest assured! I will do it! Not only for the team, but also for myself! "

Last but not wrong, the 34-year-old Spanish veteran has played at Juventus, but he was not the main player in those seasons!

The team has also failed to win the Champions League, and his highest European honour is the Europa League trophy, which was won at Sevilla in 2015-16.

At the moment, it seems that Tottenham have the upper cut, and this may be the closest he has come to the Champions League trophy, so how can Llorente not give his best?

......

Llorente came on and replaced Sissoko!

This change caused Director Zhan and others to marvel.

After replacing the midfielder with a striker, the formation has not changed, that is to say, this striker is a temporary midfielder, although this is not the first time in football, but this substitution shows the helplessness of the coach.

Director Zhan lamented: "Tottenham's signings are still not enough, but if Tottenham's bench is thicker, Pochettino will not make such a move."

Director Zhang smiled, "It's not enough, it's not at all!" Seriously, Pochettino can lead Tottenham to the quarter-finals of the Champions League with zero signings, and I think he is at least the level of a world-famous manager!

"That's right, Pochettino, really a great coach!"

"Look at this time, Tottenham launched a counterattack..." On

the pitch, Tottenham's attack came, Eriksen's advance was steady, only to be intercepted near the top of the arc, and the Danish midfielder had to split the ball!

Left! Looking for Son Heung-min, the Tottenham No. 7 who scored two goals in this game cut into the box!

After getting rid of Walker's defense, play a volley!

"Axihachi!"

After the volley, Sun Xingmin held his head in his hands and sighed, just because this ball was a sliding goal, it was a little bit worse!

In the next two minutes, the first half went into stoppage time, and in the next three minutes, neither team could find a good chance, and the score was temporarily frozen.

Both sides were given a break.

As soon as he returned to the dressing room, Laporte's stool was not covered with heat, and he was directly called away by Tasuke!

It was the Spanish centre-back who was too 'outstanding' in the first half, which led to something wrong with his psyche, and Tasuke had to come forward to enlighten him.

Guardiola was ready to make a substitution, calling Stones to his side and making him ready to come off the bench.

The English central defender nodded heavily, and his heart was a little happy!

After solving this small matter, he began to praise the performance of the players in the first half, and the praise was followed by harsh criticism, which was really undeserved!

Of course, Laporte's absence does not mean that everyone can get rid of responsibility, and everyone is at fault

....

De Ligt and others listened carefully to the instructions of the commander:

stand a little back, play the ball steadily, don't worry, return to defense faster, etc

....

After communicating the defensive problem, the manager's attention came to the midfield, and his requirement was that everyone's offensive means should be a little richer, and not let Tottenham easily form interceptions!

The fight is a surprise attack of the special lady!

Compared to the bustle of the home team's dressing room, the away team's dressing room is a little dull.

Although Tottenham Hotspur had the lead at this time, the solemn look on the players' faces revealed the fact that Manchester City is not easy to mess with! Especially Manchester City back at home!

Can they blast three goals in the first half? Who can guarantee it won't be in the second half?

"I can!"

Pochettino suddenly appeared in the dressing room, his gentle voice like a magic that drew the attention of all the players.

The soldiers you bring yourself, you know best!

Bo Shuai was well aware of the worries in the disciples' hearts, and what he had to do now was to break the worries and let the generals regain their confidence!

"Don't forget how embarrassing Manchester City players are at home, we can beat them once, naturally we can beat them a second!"

"Trust me!"

"I can take you to the cut..." These

15 minutes are not so much a break for the players as more of a brainwashing time for the manager.

But either way, what can be seen is that the two teams of players who returned from the second half looked more colorful and more confident!

Manchester City's side eventually made a substitution, with Laporte being placed on the bench and Stones draped.

Both teams used up 1 substitution.

......

The second half continued.

In the 48th minute, Manchester City won a free kick opportunity at the front of the box, Chen Feng came to take the penalty, some bad luck!

The ball passed Lory, but not the upright!

Bang Dang -

hit the post, let out a wailing sound, and was kicked by Vertonghen!

In the 50th minute of the game, it was still Manchester City's players, Chen Feng withdrew to get the ball in the middle, attracted a wave of defense and gave it to the left wing, that position, David Silva inserted!

Aguero fell on the right and Stirling moved to the middle!

And look at the left wing, David Silva received the ball near the left bottom line, and hurriedly knocked in the middle before going out!

This hurried crossing, the accuracy is very good, the Sterling in the middle is in place, pushing at close range!

Bang -

it's a pity that Lori reacted quickly and defused the push!

In the 53rd minute, Chen Feng was in the right penalty area, and a volley was saved by Lowry!

In the 57th minute, Haaland's header was also denied by Lowry!

I have to say that Lori, who returned at half-time, can shout - Saint Lori! The successive pours give Tottenham players peace of mind!

However, Manchester City players just don't believe in this evil....

In the 58th minute of the game, the front court played a flowing cooperation, and De Jong suddenly kicked straight and sent the ball into the right side of the penalty area.

Chen Feng got the ball, cut inside, got rid of it, Danny Rose had no resistance, attracting Ald Vereld's block!

Chen Feng was very steady, did not panic, flashed around the penalty area, looking for the angle of the shot... Got it!

There was a gap in front of him, and although the shooting angle was very small, it was very worth a try, so, after briefly getting rid of the eyes of his national team teammates, Chen Feng got up on his feet...
