4rabet online Zhan Jun comments on the match between Manchester City and Chelsea

4rabet online reported that the match between Manchester City and Chelsea ended in a 1-1 draw, which also ended Manchester City’s winning streak. Manchester City is currently ranked third in the standings, 4 points behind the top spot. After the game, Manchester City head coach Zhan Jun commented on the game.

Zhan Jun said that Manchester City’s main purpose was to find Haaland through crosses from the side to practice headers, but the timing of the cross was not accurate enough and the height of the pass could not be well controlled. In addition, Chelsea’s central defenders Disasi and Colwell have strong header abilities, which makes Manchester City’s more than 30 shots not much of a threat. Fortunately, Manchester City still has Rodri, a defender who can score goals. Akanji, who replaced Stones in the first half, did not achieve the expected results, resulting in too many gaps in the defense. Manchester City, who are relegated to third in the table, have drawn four games at home this season and failed to win twice against Chelsea, who are ranked 10th. The end of this winning streak is also related to the high consumption of games in midweek.

For Chelsea, they implemented resolute tactics in the game, their defense was solid, and their defensive hardness in the midfield and frontcourt and the efficiency of offensive transition were very high. Gallagher, in particular, deserves credit for successfully winning the ball against Rodri on multiple occasions. The goals of Jackson and Sterling are also a good combination. Sterling became the first former Manchester City player in the history of the Premier League to score against his old club both home and away. Chelsea need to maintain stable performance in the next games, and this game may be a cornerstone.
