5-0 to 4-1, Manchester City made it to the quarter-finals of the Champions League, starting with an 11-man rotation, leading the catchers by six points
Midweek Champions League for Manchester City no pressure, the first leg of the game 5-0 victory over Portuguese sports, Beijing time at 4:00 a.m. Beijing time, Manchester City will usher in the Champions League quarter-finals and Portuguese sports second leg match, which for Manchester City unless there is a "miracle", manchester City is already a stable Champions League quarterfinals. In the last Premier League game, Manchester City beat Manchester United 4-1, from a 5-0 to 4-1 victory over Manchester United against Sport of Portugal, City showed strong attacking ability.
In the last game, Manchester City played very easily, the possession rate of the whole game was very high, and in the second half, Manchester City basically slipped on Manchester United to play. Coupled with the fact that it is already a big lead over Portuguese sports, this game is also an opportunity to train and rest. City will also be the starting 11-man rotation, after all, Manchester City currently leads by only 6 points in the league, which is in the case of one more game, and the catcher Liverpool will only lead by 3 points if they win in the playoffs.
At the beginning of the season, City once led by more than 10 points in the Premier League, but were closely followed by their opponents. In the starting lineup, mainly on the offensive end of the rotation, Sterling and Jesus two players will play, the last game against Manchester United, they did not play, but also made a stay. Sterling's previous game has been revived, and in the first leg against Portugal Sport, he scored a goal and an assist, which is the nemesis of the opponent, and this game will be played again.
Jesus is also not reused, with manager Pep Guardiola preferring to use a no-striker than him, in which case Jesus' prospects at Manchester City are unclear. Jesus has not yet played for Manchester City in the Champions League this season, scoring 3 goals and 1 assist in 4 substitution appearances, and the overall state is good. In March, Manchester City's schedule is relatively dense, and in this case, substitute players are also needed to be able to stand up, and the two attackers Mahrez and Gralis will be given a chance to take a break.
At the heart of midfield, De Bruyne will continue to start, there is no doubt that he is now in good shape, and the slump at the beginning of the season has quickly adjusted. Even if Manchester City's promotion is relatively stable, it is still necessary to be cautious and avoid losing the game. Manchester City has played more and more smoothly this season, in the absence of a reliable striker, Guardiola's frontless formation is very effective, goals, assists are more scattered, there will be no players absent to lead to a decline in strength. Mahrez has scored 21 goals and seven assists this season, and De Bruyne has 10 goals and eight assists.
Foden also scored 10 goals and 8 assists, Silva 10 goals and 4 assists, Gundogan 7 goals and 6 assists, and full-back Cancelo 8 assists, becoming a sharp weapon on the wing. After Playing Sport of Portugal in March, Manchester City will also play Against Crystal Palace and Southampton, and in April against Liverpool, a title-winning match. City also need to maintain a full victory in March so they can take the initiative against Liverpool. At present, we must play the second leg of the match against Portuguese sports, and if we can win again, it will be a good boost to the morale of the team.
