Chapter 430: The Most Expensive Substitute Appears

The two sides exchanged blank sheets in the first half. Although it was a zero-to-zero first half, both sides actually had the opportunity to break the deadlock.

Aguero and Napoli's striker Cavani each hit the door frame once, which was an impressive scene in the first half.

The draw is a situation that Napoli is willing to accept when playing away, but Manchester City naturally wants to get their Champions League start.

Manchester City is not a Champions League rookie. Yaya Toure was once a Barcelona player and a player who won the Champions League championship with the team.

However, if a team wants to adapt to the Champions League, it is not enough for a team to have a few players with experience in the Champions League.

Like the previous Donetsk miners and Valencia, although they are not as famous as Manchester City and are not as brilliant as Manchester City, they do have more experience in the Champions League, so Xu Qi can adapt to the rhythm of the Champions League with the team as soon as possible.

But Manchester City is indeed a new champion in the Champions League, and the Champions League is very unfamiliar to this team.

After the start of the second half, Hamsik got a long shot, and his shot was saved by Hart, and Manchester City escaped again.

However, after a disaster, it will come again, and this time it was Naples who created opportunities through counterattacks.

In the 69th minute, Napoli intercepted the ball from the backcourt and counterattacked, forming a three-for-two situation. Kolarov and Nasri were unable to return to defense in time.

Marjo dribbled the ball to the front of the penalty area and passed the ball to Cavani who was in the right side. The Uruguayan calmly shot low in the penalty area. The ball drilled into the net from Hart's legs. Napoli actually took the lead away, one-to-zero.

The fans at the scene were a little dissatisfied by what happened suddenly at this moment. After all, it was too dangerous to concede the ball at this stage of the home court, and it was probably going to be a bad start.

Moreover, the right-side configuration of Nasri and Kolarov seems to be a bit unfavorable to Macho alone, which also makes Mancini decide to send Xu Qi to the game.

Finally, in the 73rd minute, Xu Qi replaced Nasri to play.

This was a long time to come out. Manchester City's number one star finally made Xu Qi's appearance even make the opponent's coach Mazarri feel a little sad. He also knows Xu Qi's excellence. After all, he is the benchmark for this summer's transfer. Everyone knows how strong Xu Qi is.

After Xu Qi appeared, he immediately began to contact and cooperate with his teammates, hoping to help the team stabilize the situation.

He had just got a chance on the left side. Facing Ma Qiao, who was in good condition in this game, Xu Qi swayed left and right and directly shook Ma Qiao's right foot and shot a cross in an arc.

Aguero quickly crossed the middle in front of the goal, but his shot hit the crossbar again.

The tenacious Naples escaped another disaster.

Although Napoli did not concede the ball this time, they were also afraid of Xu Qi, and they could use breakthroughs to create opportunities as soon as they came on the court.

At this time, Mazarri was also frightened and immediately called on the team members to tell them to prevent Xu Qi and not to make him break through easily.

However, this was just a talk. After only one minute, Xu Qi found another opportunity to make a breakthrough.

Ma Qiao was shaken away by Xu Qi again, and Xu Qi successfully broke through again and advanced towards the penalty area.

However, this time Ma Qiao was protected by his teammates, and Gargano happened to be nearby. Xu Qi was about to rush into the penalty area as if he had entered a no-man.

Gargano naturally would not let this happen. He rushed over quickly and decisively used tactical fouls to knock Xu Qi down, avoiding a disaster that was likely to happen to the Naples team.

This time, the Naples foul also booed the fans at the scene, and there were almost some quarrels between the two sides.

Especially Xu Qi, he kept talking about Gargano's foul on him.

He was really not very happy with Gargano's foul. After all, he had just recovered from injury and was intercepted by the opponent again. Fortunately, he was not seriously injured, but Xu Qi was afraid of these dirty defensive players recently.

After some quarrel, Xu Qi also received a yellow card, and Gargano also received a yellow card.

Then, Kolarov took the penalty for a set piece in the frontcourt.

It seems that this free kick is not a very good position, but Kolarov still chose to hit the goal directly.

And this ball miraculously entered!

One to one, Kolarov made a contribution to the set ball, helping the team equalize the score. This goal came from the set ball made by Xu Qi.

When Xu Qi left the factory, Manchester City's offensive immediately became very fierce.

Xu Qi immediately ran to the corner flag area and hugged Kolarov.

If you fall behind at home, the team is under too much pressure. Now that you equalize the score, the pressure can be slightly released.

Next, according to the development of the game situation, Manchester City is probably going to have an advantage more and more, and the balance of victory is tilting towards Manchester City.

Xu Qi's appearance has indeed changed a lot.

Especially in the confrontation with Ma Qiao, Xu Qi had a clear advantage, which was completely different from when Nasri was there.

Next, both sides want to continue scoring goals and score three points as much as possible.

Manchester City replaced the goal hero Kolarov replaced Krish, and Mancini wanted to continue to increase chips on this wing.

Napoli replaced Lavic with Zema Yili.

Then, Manchester City replaced Tevez again and replaced Dzeko.

Naples also changed their guns, replaced Cavani, and replaced the old demon Pandev.

Both sides have been fighting in the midfield. Although Manchester City has the advantage, they have not created a good opportunity again.

Change guns and guns, but you can't get a goal.

The one-to-one score went to the end of the game.

The two sides shook hands and made peace in the first match of the Champions League group stage. This was definitely not a satisfactory score for Manchester City. They faced their direct group qualifying competitors at home and were scored by the opponent, which was indeed very unfavorable to them.

In another game in the same group, Bayern Munich defeated Villarreal two away goals.

After the first round, Bayern ranked first with three points, Manchester City and Napoli both scored one point, while Villarreal only scored zero points.

However, the group stage has just begun, and it is hard to say who qualifies and who is out in the end.

After Xu Qi came on as a substitute, in addition to helping the team create a set ball that equalized the score, there was no direct data to account. This result still made many fans feel unsatisfied.

With a terrifying high value and high annual salary, fans have very high requirements and expectations for Xu Qi, so Xu Qi still needs to show better performance to conquer the fans here.

This was a challenge for Xu Qi. He once conquered the fans of the Donetsk miners in just one or two games, and the fans of the Valencia team also had several games.

He has played many games at Manchester City club now, of course, there are also factors such as injury and failure to adjust his condition at the beginning of the season. However, Xu Qi has not shown his due level recently.

Xu Qi himself was also dissatisfied with his performance and the team's draw. Emotionally, he felt a little anxious, and he had to bear these things himself.
