Chapter 459 You Should Be More Professional!

When the football flew into the goal, the Barcelona fans were a little stunned. They did not expect that Manchester City would score the next goal.

From the second half of the game until Manchester City counterattack just now, most of the time in the middle was Barcelona attacking and Manchester City defending. It was as if Manchester City wanted to defend the goal until the last moment. The game completely became half-time. So they worry about whether the team can score goals, not whether the opponent will continue to score goals.

Spanish national sports TV broadcaster Fernandos Sanchez Bob also thinks so, just now he said, "Obviously, Manchester City intends to keep the goal. This idea is a bit conservative, but it can be taken away at Camp Nou. An away goal, it was a great success. If they can keep the goal and take a win, they will have an advantage back at home and then Barcelona will be in danger."

"For Barcelona now, it is to equalize the score as soon as possible, and even try to overtake the score, because even if Barcelona scores two more goals, the score is only 2-1, and the 2-1 at home has just been reluctantly accepted. , after all, they have to go through an away game..."

"Maybe Barcelona's delay in scoring is also related to Messi's performance. He should pay attention to his state and try to get rid of Manchester City's defense against him..."

Just after Fernandos Sanchez-Bob analyzed the situation on the field, Manchester City's counterattack began. From Maurice to Ozil, from Ozil to Darren Bent, the two made a two-to-one. After cooperation, the ball was passed to Torres' feet, and the halfway time was only 7 or 8 seconds. The time was so short that Fernandos was stunned, and then he saw Torres kick the ball into the goal.

"Torres..."

"Torres...Torres..." Fernandos seemed to have no idea what tone to use to explain the goal. After shouting a few times in a row, he rubbed his eyes and it was indeed Manchester City's goal, and then he used a tone of lamentation. Said, "Torres scored! Our golden boy helped Manchester City put the ball - into the Barcelona goal!"

Club games do not distinguish the nationality of the players. Fernandos also realized that Torres has nothing to do with Barcelona. The Atlético Madrid he played for before would only have conflicts with Barcelona, ​​and it would never have anything to do with it. He no longer mentioned Torres, but lamented the goal, "Manchester City relied on a quick counter-attack, scored another goal, 0-2, this score is too bad for Barcelona... They should also pay attention to defense when attacking. …”

Fernandos's tone is obviously inclined towards Barcelona. He is very worried about the unfavorable situation of Barcelona. In turn, the British Sky Sports commentator is inclined to Manchester City, because Manchester City is an English club, even if Wansheng himself is dismissive, But the English media actually hoped that the two Premier League teams could meet in the final, so after seeing Torres' goal, he shouted excitedly, "Torres-!!"

"0 to 2!"

"Seeing this goal, I even want to say that the suspense is over! At Camp Nou, the guest Manchester City leads by two goals, this score is unimaginable! Barcelona has been attacking before, they want to rely on strong attack to equalize The score, but Manchester City used the goal to tell them that defense is also very important..."

"Manchester City's counter-attack was very fast. Maurice intercepted the ball and Torres put the ball into the goal. It took no more than 10 seconds in the middle. It was as if Barcelona were still attacking one moment, and the football was flying the next moment. Going into the Barcelona goal was just... unbelievably fast!"

"This is the fast break that Manchester City relies on. Several frontcourt players cooperated very well. With continuous cooperation, Barcelona's poor defense did not work at all. They didn't have time to return to defense, and most players could only watch. The football flies into the goal..."

"But it's not surprising that Manchester City can score again. Barcelona suppressed Manchester City as a whole, but their performance was actually not good. Messi, who had high expectations before the game, has not shown much performance. He even said that he seemed to It disappeared during the game..."

"It may be thanks to Blumer, who has been marking Messi, making it impossible for the Argentine star to play. Since the move to Manchester City, Blumer has been solid performance, but because he is not very good at attacking, the team has With a core offensive and defensive player like Maurice, Blumer didn't play a lot. Maybe many people were still wondering before, what did Wansheng buy the Brazilian for? After this game, I don't think anyone will be confused. Defensively, Brommer played the biggest role, he managed to freeze Messi at the heart of Barcelona!"

The British Sky Sports commentator mercilessly criticized Barcelona and praised Manchester City.

Manchester City fans were all in a frenzy.

The majority of the Barcelona fans at the scene were silent. They had no idea that the game would turn out like this. Just now they were expecting the team to score quickly to tie the game, but the opponent scored a 'quick' goal. Ideal and realistic The gap made them a little unacceptable, and some fans were reluctant to believe it was true, but the numbers on the scoreboard at Camp Nou couldn't be clearer.

0:2!

The home team Barcelona are two goals behind!

Torres' goal was a huge blow to Barcelona. From the head coach Rijkaard to the players on the bench, they were all gloomy and silent.

They had absolutely no idea that the team would be two goals behind at Camp Nou!

This reality is somewhat beyond their acceptable limits. They entered the game with the mentality of knocking out Manchester City and entering the final, and at the Camp Nou, their first leg at least was to win.

Only if you win will you have an advantage. After going to Manchester Stadium, the second leg will be easier to play.

But two goals behind?

Two goals behind at home, how to play away?

Rijkaard hasn't recovered yet, but he knows that the biggest problem with the team is actually Messi. If Messi's problem is not solved and they go to Manchester Stadium, they will have nothing to do. as.

————

Rijkaard believes that the biggest reason why the game has reached this level is that Messi was blocked and did not perform at all.

Wan Sheng didn't see it that way.

In Wansheng's view, there are two reasons why the team can lead by two goals at Camp Nou. One is that the opponent relies too much on core players, and the other is that Manchester City's overall strength is already stronger than the current Barcelona.

Barcelona's style of play is gorgeous, a bit more flashy than Manchester City's 'OS-F' system of controlled play, but they have an Achilles' heel of relying too much on their core players.

Before Ronaldinho, now Messi.

And no matter who the core players are, there is no doubt about the impact of the core players on the team's performance. Many times Barcelona does not perform well because the core players are not doing well. Conversely, as long as the core players perform well, Barcelona Rhone will perform quite well as a whole.

That's why, when Barcelona lost the Clasico, everyone from the manager to the media blamed Ronaldinho.

In fact, Manchester City as a whole will also be affected by the performance of the core players, but it is definitely not to the extent of Barcelona. For example, Morris, even when Morris is injured and cannot play, the team's performance is still very good. Ozil and Seale Wa's partner can also make the team play normally, and the team is also very adaptable to other styles of play, and will not be affected to a degree similar to Barcelona because of 'no core'.

It is precisely because of knowing the weakness of Barcelona that Wansheng arranged the defense against Messi.

After Messi was strictly guarded and unable to perform normally, Barcelona's offense was greatly affected. They couldn't break Manchester City's goal for a long time, which was a big reason.

The second point is the overall strength of Manchester City.

Wansheng asked Bloomer to mark Messi, and also made Morris pay attention. When other players are running, they will also pay attention to blocking Messi's passing and receiving routes. This kind of defense investment is very large.

After investing a lot of defensive energy on the opponent's single player, it can be seen that Manchester City still has no disadvantage when defending Barcelona's offensive, and the counterattack can still be very sharp, which shows that the strength of the team is not better than Barcelona's. Poor Rhone.

Since the strength is not bad, what's so strange about the game?

————

Wansheng is pleased that the game achieved the desired result.

It is too advantageous for the team to lead Barcelona by two goals at the Camp Nou, so next, he did not let the team 'greed' and attack the Barcelona goal, but let the team Continue to fall back on defense.

The most important thing now is not to strive for a greater advantage, but to maintain it.

The advantage of two goals is enough for the team to return to the Manchester Stadium and play a stable second round. On the contrary, if Barcelona scores a goal, the suspense will increase a lot.

Wan Sheng doesn't like suspense, he likes everything in his hands.

So next, Manchester City started to defend, and the defense was more stable than before. Even Torres returned to the penalty area line, and Manchester City put on a posture of strict defense.

Barcelona are constantly attacking Manchester City. They are eager to score a goal, but Manchester City's counterattack just now made them a little bit timid, worried that Manchester City will have such a fast break again, so they also have to be careful about defense. The offensive is not as good as before. violent.

In this case, they face a tighter Manchester City defense, and the result can be imagined.

In the 81st minute of the game, Wansheng made a substitution adjustment, Darren Bent was replaced, and Boateng played.

The Spanish media simply interpreted the substitution as, "Manchester City continues to add defense..."

The British media "kindly" reminded Barcelona to still pay attention to Manchester City's counterattack. "Even if Darren Bent is off, there are still Torres, Ozil and others on the field. They are enough to pose a threat to Barcelona's goal."

Maybe Barcelona didn't think so. After Manchester City completed the substitution, they realized that Manchester City had strengthened their defense, maybe they gave up their offense, so their offense was more open.

As a result, in the 85th minute of the game, Manchester City hit the Barcelona penalty area line with a fast break.

Watching the football fly past the crossbar, all Barcelona people broke out in a cold sweat, and they immediately realized that Manchester City was not powerless to fight back!

The next game can be described as 'no surprise'. Barcelona failed to pose a threat to Manchester City's goal, and Manchester City did not launch a sharp counterattack.

The final game ended 0-2.

Manchester City won the first leg of the Champions League semi-finals.

————

When the referee blew the whistle, the Manchester City players cheered and celebrated, while the Barcelona players bowed their heads, some in disbelief that they would lose two goals at Camp Nou.

Wan Sheng took the initiative to approach Rijkaard to shake hands.

The Dutchman looked at Wansheng with a bit of disappointment, a little disappointment, and a little... indignity, he had thought Wansheng was the same person as him, a head coach who insisted on combining 'gorgeousness and use', Barcelo The match between Nathaniel and Manchester City will also be a classic offensive football battle that will go down in history.

After this game, he found that his judgment was completely wrong.

This young Chinese is completely playing 'practical' football. As for whether it is gorgeous or not, or attacking or not, maybe he doesn't care at all.

Because the other party is a total utilitarian!

This 'classic offensive football battle' that he was looking forward to has completely turned into 'another victory in utilitarian football'. Now, when facing Wansheng, Rijkaard felt indignant and lost. Needless to say, the indignation, What he lost was that he lost to utilitarian football, and Barcelona lost two goals to Manchester City. He undoubtedly lost very thoroughly.

but……

"The two rounds are not over yet, we still have a chance in the next game!"

Rijkaard said solemnly to Wansheng.

Wan Sheng was stunned for a moment, then smiled, gave Rijkaard a thumbs up, and said, "Come on!"

————

Wansheng's last "Come on" undoubtedly made Rijkaard very angry.

He said provocative words, but he didn't want to hear "Come on", which means that the other party doesn't care at all. Perhaps in the other party's heart, it is already determined that Manchester City can qualify, so they don't care about his words.

So Rijkaard gnashed his teeth at Wansheng.

This mood was brought to the press conference. In the face of interviews with a group of media reporters, the Dutch repeatedly emphasized, "0-2 is not the end, we will learn the lessons of this game, go to Manchester, we still have a chance."

Wansheng and the players celebrated a victory before going to the press conference.

When he arrived at the venue, Rijkaard had already left. Perhaps it was because of their tacit 'no meeting'. A reporter immediately told Wan Sheng what Rijkaard had just said, and wanted to hear what the young Chinese would do. reply.

But Wansheng didn't say anything about this issue at all, instead he talked about the pre-match, "I said before that Messi is a good player, so we must pay attention to Messi, but it seems that many people don't take my words to heart. On the contrary, I took it out of context and thought that I was praising Messi, but in fact I emphasized that we need to guard Messi seriously."

"See? 0 to 2, this is the consequence of your taking it out of context..."

"I hope you, as the media, should report more professionally. You should listen to all the interviews, listen to them, do you understand? What I'm actually emphasizing is to defend Messi, not to praise him... Hey, you are really... "

Wan Sheng covered his forehead with a look of pain on his face. (To be continued ~^~)
