The start of the Champions League is getting closer and closer, and the whole Manchester City team has set off for Munich.

A UEFA Champions League group stage match is approaching, and some news said before the game that Bayern Munich has never had a record of confrontation with Manchester City in the Champions League, but this is simply nonsense. After all, this is the first time Manchester City plays in the Champions League.

After Bayern Munich lost to Borussia Mönchengladbach in August, he has now achieved nine consecutive victories in the Champions League and Bundesliga. They are now preparing to win ten consecutive victories, and Heinx's team is at its peak.

Before the game, Heinkes also expressed the team's desire for victory. Last season, Bayern Munich lost to Valencia, who owned Xu Qi at home, but the head coach at that time was still Van Gaal. Bayern Munich in the new season achieved very good results under the leadership of Heinkes, and they are ready to launch a new attack on the throne of the king.

The key to this game is self-evident, so both sides also attach great importance to this game.

Mancini said Bayern Munich is a very strong team, they have more experience than Manchester City, but Manchester City still hopes to take away a victory here.

Heinx did not seem to underestimate the enemy. He knew very well how terrifying it would become when a team had Xu Qi. However, after Xu Qi arrived in Manchester City, he never really showed his terrifying side. It is hard to guarantee that Xu Qi, who has always liked to play in big scenes, could not break out in this game.

Heinx really feels that Bayern is likely to become the unlucky guy who caused Xu Qi's outbreak.

Therefore, he also specially arranged defensive arrangements for Xu Qi before the game.

Heinx also expressed his appreciation for Xu Qi before the game. He believes that Xu Qi needs to adapt better to Manchester City, and Xu Qi may become the best player in the world in the future.

After some pre-match renderings, compliments and "support" between the two sides finally waited for the start of the game in the hustle and bustle.

The Allianz Stadium was already full.

In terms of starting lineup, Bayern Munich lined up 4231 formation today, Gomez center, Thomas Muller and Ribery were active on both wings, Tony Kroos front midfielder, Gustavo and Schweinsteiger double midfielder. On the back line, J Boateng and Van Biden partnered with the center back, Ram and Rafinia were one left and one right, and the goalkeeper was Neuer.

Neuer also had a record of playing against Schalke 04 last season, and Bayern has recruited Neuer this season.

J. Boateng was still playing for Manchester City last season, and this time he joined Bayern, he was also facing his savior again.

This game has many highlights, and in terms of Manchester City, the starting lineup is a bit beyond everyone's expectations.

In this game, all three technical midfielders, Xu Qi, David Silva and Nasri, started.

As for how the three midfielders are arranged, the answer given by relevant experts is that Xu Qi is in the middle, Nasri and David Silva are separated from each other on the left and right. This time Manchester City's midfield formation seems to be more aggressive.

However, Mancini only sent one striker, that is Aguero, so he did not line up the formation too radically. He hoped that five midfielders would balance Bayern Munich, which would give Manchester City a certain advantage.

The detailed starting roster is like this, Aguero single arrow, Xu Qi, David Silva, Nasri, Yaya Toure, and Barry form a strong midfield combination.

The defense line is Richards, Kompany, Kroo Toure and Krish who returned to the start.

The goalkeeper is still Hart.

This is a bit like a strikeless formation. After all, Aguero is not a center in the traditional sense. He is also playing with his feet and his figure is not very tall. Mancini wants to play with Bayern.

In the night sky of Munich, under the lights of the Allianz Stadium, the game began. Bayern kicked off first, but was quickly snatched by Xu Qi.

Manchester City's midfield advantage was very obvious as soon as they got up, with Xu Qi, Nasri and David Silva starting to make continuous passes.

Then Xu Qi stepped on the ball to Silva, and then Silva sent a straight pass for Xu Qi. Xu Qi passed back Nasri and let Nasri take a shot. The ball was blocked by Rafinia.

Manchester City completed a threatening attack.

Just one minute later, Aguero got another offensive opportunity, his shot above the crossbar.

In the seventh minute of the game, Xu Qi completed another shot. Xu Qi's shot finally threatened Neuer, allowing Neuer to make a wonderful save.

Now Neuer is really scared when he sees Xu Qi. He has been shot twice by Xu Qi before. In the Champions League last season, Xu Qi has already caused some shadows.

Moreover, Neuer wanted to come and like to tease the opponent's forward, but he didn't have much confidence to tease him in front of Xu Qi.

After snatching Xu Qi's shot this time, Neuer also tapped his chest with his hands to cheer himself up.

Obviously, he himself thought it was not easy.

During the opening period, Manchester City had a great advantage and once suppressed Bayern at Allianz Stadium.

Judging from the opening situation, Mancini's tactics have had a very good effect. He does not play as a double striker and uses five midfielders, which really gives the team a certain advantage.

Before the game, many people were speculating on which one of the two forwards Balotelli and Dzeko are now playing, but now, Mancini has not played any other, so she has become a forward like Aguero.

"It seems that the current situation is very beneficial to Manchester City. They suppressed Bayern Munich at Allianz Stadium. Xu Qi's performance is also very active." Commentator Duan Xuan also said that the current situation is very favorable to Manchester City. "Such huge investment in the transfer market in the summer is indeed not a hundred flowers. Xu Qi, Aguero, Nasri, look at these players on the court, they are all top players in the transfer market this summer. Xu Qi is the king and Aguero is the second most valuable, and they are all capped by Manchester City."

However, not long after Duan Xuan finished playing Manchester City, Bayern Munich actually scored a goal.

The goal occurred in the 18th minute. Ribery dribbled the ball from the left, then forced the inward and got rid of it horizontally. Then he threw away the position and shot with a powerful shot. The forceful shot was heavy, but the angle was not tricky and was saved by Hart. Then Thomas Muller followed up with a supplementary shot, but the close-kicked shot was actually saved by Hart again.

However, at this time, Manchester City's defense was completely panicked and lost its position, giving Bayern Munich a second chance to make a shot. Mario Gomez followed up and shot directly opened Manchester City's goal. Zero to one, Manchester City, which had the advantage in the scene, was still behind.
Chapter completed!
