"Real Madrid's overall strength is still a bit stronger! Their counter-attack quality is higher, Manchester City's impact is a bit weak, Zhao Gang can't hold on alone!"

"We must take down Real Madrid! Although it's just the group stage, if we can defeat Real Madrid, it will be a qualitative improvement for Manchester City's confidence and spirit!!"

"Manchester City can't break through in the Champions League because they can't fight tough battles. They are stable in the league, but they lose confidence in the Champions League, like a curse."

"Last game, they were behind and managed to tie. Why can't they play when they're in the lead this game? Zhao Gang, stop retreating, push forward!"

On the field, Ronaldo hugged his teammates, his face full of dominance.

After Zhao Gang's comfort, Silva felt a little better, but still gestured an apology to his teammates. His pass was a bit careless.

If it had been a little wider, past Marcelo's defense, De Bruyne would have received the ball and could have posed a threat to Real Madrid's goal.

As a result, because of his mistake, Real Madrid launched a counter-attack!

Now that Real Madrid's momentum is up, Manchester City is a bit sluggish.

Fortunately, it's almost half-time.

They can adjust their state.

Zhao Gang touched his head and glanced at his heading stat, which had reached 50. This was the result of his constant training.

He also glanced at his available system points. Because of the "Ball King Road," he now had 46 system points.

Now, he could directly raise his heading stat to 90. In this situation, Zhao Gang didn't hesitate and added all 40 system points.

Manchester City kicked off in the center circle. The teammates, seeing Zhao Gang at the front, knew his intentions.

His retreat to get the ball was to play it safe, but when he pushed to the front, it meant that in these two minutes of injury time, he wasn't thinking about stabilizing the rhythm but wanted to continue attacking.

With so little time left, it would be difficult for Real Madrid to launch another counter-attack.

Then look for an opportunity to try!

Gundogan received the ball and exchanged short passes with Fernandinho to distract Real Madrid, then Gundogan found Silva making a forward run.

Sterling began to retreat, increasing the passing options.

In the first half, Sterling's position was severely restricted, and he didn't gain much advantage. However, his presence did prevent Real Madrid's left flank from forming a good connection with Ronaldo, with most of the passes being directed to Ronaldo's feet through the center.

Zhao Gang ran to the front. This time, he didn't compete with Ramos and Varane, because he couldn't outfight both of them alone.

He kept running, and Real Madrid gave him comprehensive attention.

Because both Varane and Ramos had suffered before.

In terms of physical confrontation, Zhao Gang wasn't much inferior, and in terms of speed, the two of them couldn't keep up at all.

So, they constantly double-teamed and restricted Zhao Gang.

There weren't many players in football who could make Real Madrid's two top center-backs so concerned.

Of course, Messi definitely counted as one.

And now there was another nineteen-year-old boy.

Real Madrid's two center-backs were never afraid of a center forward's physical confrontation; what they feared was agile and fast center forwards.

Zhao Gang's speed was exactly what they were worried about.

He wasn't just fast; he was too fast!

Varane still felt lingering fear when he thought about it now.

When he charged, it was even more terrifying than facing Ronaldo and Bale in training!

What was even more terrifying was that this guy could still change direction and cut the ball at that speed. How strong did his ball sense have to be?

Sterling's retreat and cooperation with Silva allowed Manchester City's ball to circulate quite smoothly.

Although Sterling's long passes weren't great, his short passes and ball protection ability were quite good.

Soon, Silva found a gap, and after constant movement, De Bruyne still had an open space.

This time, his pass was extremely stable, finding De Bruyne with one kick.

Zhao Gang, who had been running in the center and entangled with Ramos and Varane, immediately realized that De Bruyne had a very good passing route when he saw De Bruyne's position.

Because he could pass that kind of ball from De Bruyne's position, and he believed that De Bruyne could definitely do it too!

Zhao Gang stretched out his right hand and pointed forward.

Of course, De Bruyne saw this route, but he hesitated because this route could only result in a high cross. If it were forwards like Ronaldo, Lewandowski, or even his teammate Lukaku, he would not hesitate.

But Zhao Gang was asking for the ball, and thinking about Zhao Gang's previous headers in the penalty area, it seemed like he had made considerable progress.

Then here goes!

A precise long pass flew into the penalty area!

"The arc of this ball is very good, but there's no one to meet it. This landing point will probably be cleared..."

Although Zhao Gang's sprinting speed was fast, his starting speed wasn't much faster than Ramos and Varane.

At this distance, with the interference of the two center-backs, by the time Zhao Gang accelerated, he hadn't shaken off the defense, and the ball would be cleared directly.

Seeing the pass, Varane immediately started, stepping into the penalty area. This ball was a little high, and he needed to run two more steps forward to head the ball out of the penalty area!

"Oh my god!!

Zhao!!

Taking off!!

He's really taking off!!"

The previous take-off was because of fast speed and low flight, but this time he was really flying!

Ramos, who had been blocking Zhao Gang, felt a lightness behind him. He was about to adjust his angle and continue to interfere with Zhao Gang, letting Varane clear the ball.

When he turned his head, he saw that Zhao Gang had already dodged his position and jumped up!

Jumping straight from the edge of the penalty area into the penalty area!

With this jumping point and the ball's landing point, it's impossible to reach it!

He jumped too early, right?

This guy has good physical qualities, but his heading is too bad.

He can't grasp the timing of the jump at all. He had watched his heading videos before, but now it was indeed much worse!

The next moment, Ramos's jaw almost dropped!

This guy...

This guy was like a low-flying bomber.

Swoosh...

His body fully stretched, jumping high and far, like a glider!

"Heavens!!!"

"Zhao Gang!"

"Superman, Superman is here!!"

In the stands of the Etihad, fans stood up one after another, mouths wide open, watching the blue figure flying.

At this moment, they were unwilling to blink, unwilling to miss this crazy and wonderful moment.

It was too late for Varane to take another step forward and jump to clear the ball!

Zhao Gang headed the ball first. After a clear pause in the air, he landed with a bang, and because of inertia, he slid forward along the turf for a distance.

Ramos, seeing Zhao Gang jump, subconsciously used all his strength and jumped out as well, trying to interfere with Zhao Gang.

But he found that he was too far from the ball and couldn't make it in time!

Navas, on the goal line, had made full preparations when he saw Zhao Gang jump.

When he saw the ball's trajectory, he had already given up resisting.

With this distance, this power, and this angle, he couldn't react in time!

All he could do was watch the ball fly into the upper left corner, hoping that the crossbar could block the ball, or that the ball would fly out directly!

Whoosh!

The ball slammed into the net!

Navas opened his mouth, his face ashen, standing firmly on the goal line.

Even a goalkeeper as agile as him couldn't make a save, which shows the speed and power of the ball.

Hoo!!!!

After a cry of surprise in the Etihad Stadium, there was a violent and crazy roar.

Another hat-trick!

Two hat-tricks against Real Madrid in two legs!

This time, it was a first-half hat-trick!

A header!

A wonderful, airborne header!

Fans waved their scarves, took off their shirts, and shouted like crazy.

It was Zhao Gang's header!

Everyone knew that Zhao Gang's heading was like Torres's one-on-one in his declining years, unbearable to watch.

But this time, Zhao Gang actually took off directly and headed the ball into the dead corner!

This was even more shocking than his hat-trick.

At this moment, the records Zhao Gang had set were not worth mentioning!

Manchester City fans clapped, hugged, and roared as if it were Christmas.

The team's lead made them happy, but what excited them even more was that this was Zhao Gang's first header, so wonderful and exquisite!

This header ignited the entire Etihad stands, making the blood in their bodies burn.

Zhao Gang climbed up excitedly, and Manchester City's teammates, their mouths almost splitting with laughter, rushed towards Zhao Gang like crazy.

The substitutes, led by Aguero, jumped up with a whoosh and roared to the sky.

"Oh! Zhao Gang's first headed goal! And such a chic and handsome glide! It's really... what is Aguero doing??"

While the commentator was excited, the camera suddenly focused on Aguero on the sidelines. Aguero was standing on the sidelines, facing the stands, instigating.

He opened his left hand, five fingers spread.

Slap!

He heavily slapped his forehead, then shouted at all the spectators.

Slap!

Again.

The audience in the stands, still in excitement, saw Aguero's action, and all the fans stood there, arms outstretched.

Hoo... boom... slap!!

After a neat uproar, they lifted their legs and stomped on the ground at the same time. There was a roar in the stands, and then everyone slammed their left hand on their forehead!

Hoo... boom... slap!!

"This... this scene has appeared before. It's Aguero's celebration after scoring a goal at home. It is said... it is said to be to tease Zhao Gang's heading skills... Many fans know this celebration action, and today... Aguero finally caught the opportunity..."

Zhao Gang, who had originally climbed up and rushed to the sidelines to celebrate passionately, looked up and saw fans standing up in all directions, arms outstretched, and after shouting, they all slapped their foreheads in unison. Zhao Gang opened his mouth, shook his head, and could only give a thumbs up to the stands.

Hoo... roar!!

The fans in the stands roared, making all kinds of sounds.

Sterling ran in front of Zhao Gang, put his right arm around his neck, stretched out his left hand, spread his five fingers, and slapped his forehead with excitement.

Slap! Slap! Slap!

Zhao Gang sighed. Turning around, Silva and De Bruyne stood neatly, craning their necks.

Their foreheads were slapping loudly.

"Go to hell, you guys!"

It's okay for Sterling to slap, but you two, who are so steady, have also gone crazy?

Manchester City fans boiled over again when they saw that De Bruyne and Silva would actually do such a thing.

Zhao Gang scoring a header was even more lively than winning the Premier League title.

"Manchester City's team atmosphere is still very harmonious. Facing Real Madrid, the previous tense atmosphere has become a grand celebration at this moment, after Zhao Gang's unbelievable headed goal!

Zhao Gang's status in Manchester City, in the hearts of all the fans... is really unparalleled!"

Real Madrid players, looking at these crazy players and fans, were extremely depressed.

Manchester City taking the lead again was indeed worthy of their celebration, but did they have to make such a fuss?

The entire stadium, led by Aguero, the atmosphere captain, was actually slapping their own foreheads together?

Are they playing house?
