After the match, multiple media outlets gave Mbappe extremely high praise.

They believed that Mbappe would have an extremely magnificent career. Given time, he would become one of the representatives of the new generation of football players.

"If the whole match was fixed in the first half, Mbappe would become the hero of Monaco, and he would completely defeat Zhao in this direct dialogue. Unfortunately, there is no 'if'. In the second half, Guardiola adjusted his tactics to make Zhao a completely defensive midfielder, responsible for marking Mbappe.

This made Mbappe lose the brilliance of the first half. His speed and explosiveness were almost completely restricted by Zhao.

We really can't imagine that an attacker like Zhao would possess such powerful defensive talent. He not only restricted Mbappe, but was even able to support the defense on the wing, preventing Lemar from发挥 (fāhuī - bringing his ability) to his normal strength.

Not long ago, we thought Zhao's defense was not up to par. Now he's telling us that if he wants to, he can do anything on the pitch.

Monaco withdrew from the Champions League stage somewhat tragically. I think they didn't lose to Manchester City, but to their own tactics and that young man in Manchester City who has no weaknesses at all."

"Fabinho and Bakayoko showed great improvement in this game. In the first leg, their restrictions on Zhao can be described as disastrous. In this game, they really did their best.

Unfortunately, in the last twenty minutes, their physical decline and lack of concentration led to failure at the last hurdle.

I believe that these two young defensive midfielders will definitely become the focus of competition for major clubs in the summer transfer window.

Especially the Premier League teams, they will definitely wave their banknotes to buy them, because they have done something in this game that Premier League players can't do, restricting Zhao for seventy minutes.

Believe me, their value will exceed everyone's imagination. If Premier League teams want to defeat Manchester City, they will do everything possible to bring them to the Premier League."

"Zhao is still maintaining his consecutive scoring record in the Champions League, and is still breaking his own single-season Champions League scoring record. Now what we are looking forward to may be how high he can take Manchester City. Of course, there is also a very noteworthy thing, whether he can score six goals in a single knockout match and exclusively hold the single-match scoring record.

Once again, it was him who stood up, otherwise Manchester City was really likely to be overturned.

In the past, Manchester City had good dominance in the Premier League, but they always seemed to lack something in the Champions League, unable to be compared with real giants, and always had various problems in key matches.

This season, they almost dropped the ball again at a critical moment, but fortunately they spent 70 million pounds to buy a real core.

This makes them show the qualities of a champion.

After this round of knockout matches, Manchester City's odds of winning the Champions League are ranked second after Bayern, tied with Real Madrid and Barcelona. This is already a very, very significant improvement."

After this Champions League game, many Manchester City fans who were interviewed by the media believed that Zhao Gang was the most important part of this Manchester City team.

Of course, some people think it's Guardiola, and only a very few fans think it's Aguero and De Bruyne.

"Aguero and De Bruyne, Sterling, Otamendi... they are all excellent. I am important, but if you ask who is the most important, it must be Zhao! Without him, we would have been eliminated from the Champions League, and the League Cup would probably have been defeated by Arsenal. The FA Cup would also have a hard time beating Chelsea... As for the league, I think Manchester City would also find it difficult to compare with the stable Chelsea and the defensively outstanding Leicester City.

Even if we can win the championship, it will be very, very difficult.

Without Zhao, let alone multiple competitions, I'm afraid we won't get a single championship!"

Zhao Gang has reached another level in the hearts of Manchester City fans.

His dominant performance in the league and his even more crazy performance in the Champions League have made not only various media outlets, but also scouts, coaches, and management from various major clubs study this Super Zhao from Dragon Country.

They are not only studying how to defend him, but also trying to find similar young talents based on him as a template.

Shooting, passing, tackling, breakthroughs, stamina, speed.

All the indicators in the middle and front of the field, and now added to that, is super strong tackling ability.

Those scouts looked at the analysis data on the screen, and looked at the young man who was smiling at them with his hands behind his back, and their scalps went numb.

The Super Forward during the Norwich period was real, but at that time he couldn't even stop the ball well in a confrontation, let alone take the ball away.

In just one year, he developed dribbling, passing, and defensive abilities.

"I don't think he can be used as a template... We can't find this kind of player. His growth exceeds our understanding and can only be explained by talent."

"Yes, he is the kind of genius that is one in a billion. Now it seems that those young players can be described as excellent, and the adjective genius can only be his exclusive."

"He should be the one sent by God to save Dragon Country's football, it's that simple, maybe the prayers of hundreds of millions of Dragon Country fans were successful."

He alone is enough to make the young people in world football look dull.

……

Fans are looking forward to the next opponent in the Champions League knockout stage. The draw time is set for March 17th. Before that, Manchester City has another league game, which is destined not to be full of gunpowder.

Because it is Norwich, who has no desires, challenging Manchester City away from home.

Norwich failed to qualify from the Champions League group stage this season, and has no relegation mission in the league, and is in a state of ringing the bell as a monk for a day.

Plus, due to Norwich's emotional factors towards Zhao Gang, Norwich players will defend Zhao Gang on the field, but will definitely not make dangerous moves.

Therefore, many media outlets believed before the game that it was basically a friendly match.

Norwich fans are very interested. Fans who can't be there are also waiting in front of the TV early, preparing to cheer for their home team and for Zhao Gang.

This may be the only game where they will not骂 (mà -scold/curse) the away team's players.

In the 28th round of the Premier League, Manchester City played against Norwich at home.

The main left back, Feman, defended very actively, and took the initiative to move horizontally to the middle,撞 (zhuàng - bumped) Aguero, who had finally come on as a substitute after many days, until he was dizzy and almost骂街 (màjiē - cursed the street).

Obviously, Feman held a grudge about some of the things Aguero said in the first leg between the two sides.

This one is here for revenge.

In the end, Manchester City won the game 2-0 at home without bloodshed.

The fans in the stands clapped and shouted like crazy.

The fans of both the home and away teams were shouting Zhao Gang.

Originally, Manchester City fans were just clapping to thank the players for their hard work, but then they heard loud shouts from the away team's fan area.

The situation was more terrifying than the Queen of England's arrival.

How could this be allowed?

In their own home stadium, the away team's fans were shouting the name of their own star, overshadowing the home fans!

Manchester City fans didn't need to organize at all. At first, it was a little scattered, but after five or six seconds, Norwich fans' hysterical shouts were completely drowned out.

The broadcast camera could see their faces flushed and their veins bulging, and they couldn't hear what they were shouting at all.

Later, Norwich fans simply followed the rhythm of Manchester City fans and shouted together.

Now it's good, it's not乱 (luàn - chaotic) anymore.

Zhao Gang hugged the Norwich players one by one. There were a few he didn't recognize, but they all knew the special feelings that Norwich fans and players had for Zhao Gang.

Finally, Zhao Gang hugged the coach who had a great influence on him, Farke.

When Zhao Gang was hesitating, thinking about whether to stay with Norwich for life, Farke gave him great encouragement.

It was Farke who let him leave Norwich, just like children with ability and ambition will eventually leave their less developed hometown to realize their dreams and values.

As a coach, Farke's tactics and abilities are far from world-class, and can only be considered qualified.

But his personal charm, his care for the players, and his love for football far exceed those of most coaches.

"Child, we are all watching you. You are not only going to realize your dream, but you are also entrusting the dreams of us mediocre football players. Every step you take forward, we will cheer for you.

I'm not putting pressure on you, I'm telling you that no one in this world is stronger than you, and you will definitely stand at the top of football."

Zhao Gang hugged Farke, listening to Farke's familiar voice, his eyes were wet and he couldn't control his emotions.

The shouts of the entire stadium gradually stopped, and the fans of the home and away teams looked at the师徒 (shī tú - master and apprentice) on the field, and were extremely moved.

Farke gave Zhao Gang the opportunity, under great pressure, to start his career.

That's why the world will see such a player who turns genius into his exclusive trait, and amazes the entire football world.

The entire Etihad Stadium resounded with lasting applause.

Standing aside, Guardiola, who had not left, nodded and clapped along.

Messi to him, Beckham to Ferguson, may not be comparable to Farke's kindness to Zhao Gang.

The world never lacks excellent players, whether in Europe, Africa, America, or Asia.

Talented players are countless, but there are too few scouts who can truly挖掘 (wājué - tap/explore) these players.
