Becoming the Best Goalkeeper in the World
Chapter 111: First confrontation with Balotelli
Seeing Man City being completely suppressed by the Red Devils, Mancini could not sit idly by, how Man City also had good strength this year.
It is clearly unscientific that the king of standard transfers can be defeated by rivals in the same city!
Mancini stood up from the bench and walked to the sidelines.
It then shouts the names of its players and reminds them to pay attention to their position.
And under Mancini's guidance, Man City's player movements became a bit more active, but it was the Red Devils who got the chance to score again!
The hull feed was pointing to the right side where Nana was, and after controlling the ball, Nana did not linger to dribble the ball and directly passed the ball diagonally to the penalty box.
Ronnie used his body to press the Man City defender then jumped high and headed the ball into the net.
Unfortunately, he failed to direct the ball well and his header crossed the crossbar.
A wasted opportunity, the Red Devils failed to score a few times in a row,
Man City are currently on the counter-attack. This time, italian Man City star Balotelli led the counter-attack.
He dropped Fletcher who kept him without the ball. Fletcher lay on the ground staring innocently at Balotelli.
He was pushed down and he still had no idea what was going on.
Similarly, Balotelli was staring innocently at Fletcher, then he ran away as if nothing had happened.
No one can understand Balotelli's unique thinking.
Ever since the referee kept staring at the player with the ball, he had not noticed this incident. Balotelli also luckily escaped the yellow card.
Who said Balotelli was stupid? Actually he was very clever with dropping Fletcher which made Fletcher annoyed.
Perhaps distracted by Balotelli's surprise attack, Fletcher lost Balotelli instead.
Fletcher let this Italian genius go straight on the backcourt of the Red Devils.
Balotelli moved very quickly into a rotating rotation by easily outwitting the Giggs defence then rushing forward with the ball.
When facing Ferdinan, Balotelli smartly passed the ball to Tevez and played two-two-one with Tevez.
Ferdinan is very helpless and while wanting to continue to block Balotelli, Balotelli is already a few meters ahead of him, currently only the last player in the Red Devils defense line in front of Balotelli..
Captain of the Red Devils Vidic!
Facing players with a height of 189 cm, Balotelli's method is very clever that relies on speed!
He split the ball forward and then started to accelerate, he tried to use the speed to pass Vidic.
His plan was successful and as Balotelli passed Vidic, he suddenly began to speed up and quickly died Vidic in the back.
"Woahhhhh" Man City fans in a striking corner of the stands in the sea of red fans cheered in delight with Balotelli's resounding action.
Because he met Randy!
Bang out!
Floating ball!
The ball left Balotelli's feet, as Balotelli was puzzled as to why the ball was missing, he knew that he had fallen right in front of goal while staring at the figure of the goalkeeper in front of goal.
The ball was kicked by Randy's leg.
Randy had anticipated this and had been keeping an eye on Balotelli for a long time.
As he watched him split the ball and relied on speed to get past Vidic, Randy had already "seen" Balotelli's attack.
So he rushed forward quickly, galloping like a cheetah!
Randy leaves the goal and attacks!
Taking advantage of the ball being split forward by Balotelli and when Balotelli was still away from the ball, Randy was already rushing out of the penalty area.
Near the penalty spot, Randy was the first player to approach the ball so he kicked the ball back into the middle of the pitch more precisely the Man City zone.
Then faced Balotelli who pounced forward.
Randy was disrespectful and pushed Balotelli to the ground as soon as he reached out his hand. Because Balotelli was secretly plotting to cheat on his teammates and Randy saw the scene so he avenged Fletcher.
"Of course." Randy said with a cold snort.
Balotelli fell to the ground with an innocent expression while raising his hand towards the referee! Randy also stretched out his arms and looked more innocent than Balotelli.
During the high-speed run, it was undeniably difficult to control the speed well so Randy's actions were entirely reasonable to protect himself.
The referee did not even notice this little battle.
In the first confrontation with Balotelli, Randy not only wins but also manages to avenge his teammates.
Seeing Randy take down Balotelli, Fletcher is deeply moved to show that Randy actually thinks of him as a friend and is willing to risk an offense for him.
For Randy, this small act of being able to be exchanged for the gratitude of his team-mates is also a very good thing for Randy's reputation in the team.
But on the contrary, Balotelli is depressed because in the past even if he met Ronaldo, he was the one who got the advantage but now? Randy who was younger than him made him suffer a loss, this made Balotelli feel very angry.
Yet even if she suffered a loss, Balotelli was unable to avenge her.
Will he beat the opposing goalkeeper? He fears a suspension of several months will affect his career.
Therefore he could only stand while cursing "F*ck Randy." while patting the ground on his butt then turned around and walked away.
