Chapter 764 The Wonderful Arc (Seeking Monthly Ticket Subscription)

Iniesta has the ball up front.

Faced with Ballack's pressing, the Barcelona midfielder skillfully controlled the ball while observing the movement of his teammates.

Harvey is on his right.

Pedro is on the left.

Messi tried to get closer to meet him.

Iniesta made a move to pass the ball to Pedro, turned around on the spot, and was about to break through, when Milner pressed him from the side.

In desperation, Iniesta chose to turn around again on the spot, and while moving sideways, he suddenly knocked the football with his heel.

Harvey stepped forward knowingly, he didn't stop the ball, and pushed the football directly.

The football is at Messi's feet.

Facing the encirclement of Senderos and Cuellar, Messi spiked the ball continuously at his feet, and suddenly swiped the football with his left foot, lifting his foot and shooting from a long distance.

Cuellar had already been prepared for this, stretched out his foot to block it, the football bounced, bouncing out of the baseline, Barcelona's corner kick.

...

"When Messi can only use long-range shots to find goals, you can understand how successful Aston Villa's defense is today." Howe praised.

In fact, during the intermission, commentators from various countries were analyzing and studying Aston Villa's successful defense against Barcelona today.

The general opinion is that Fang Jue's formation and tactics are very successful. Aston Villa's defensive formation has greatly compressed the offensive space in the midfield.

Former England international and gold medal commentator Lineker gave the time and analysis from a professional point of view. He believes that Aston Villa's defensive compression is diversified and can be broken down into front and rear compression and left and right compression.

Front and back compression means that when Aston Villa faces Barcelona's frontal attack in the middle, the back line does not blindly retreat, and the avant-garde line also pays great attention to the pinching of turning around, which makes Barcelona players often face front and back interceptions. The situation of the pursuers.

In this way, there is no room for fast players such as Pedro and Messi to break forward.

This is the case with the successful defense this time, whether it is Iniesta, Xavi or Messi, even if they can control the ball skillfully and can play the exquisite coordination of passing the ball through the gap with their heels, but as long as the player takes the ball , will definitely face the situation of double-teaming with interception before chasing troops.

There is also left and right compression. When defending at full strength, Fang Jue will ask the team to form a 451 formation. Bell and Shevchenko return to the left and right sides respectively to help the team compete for the center and backcourt. Personal speed and physical advantages also well completed the defense task against Milner and Cuellar.

In this way, the space for Barcelona's two wingers to move forward is limited.

"Aston Villa's compression defense is very successful, Barcelona's previous way of passing the ball to the small diagonal line of the two ribs and using the speed of the two full-backs to break through has been greatly affected in this game. Restrictions." Zhang Lu said, "Even if Mascherano is replaced, this will free Abidal and Alves, and they can press up and attack, but the effect is not great."

Guardiola frowned on the sidelines, as Aston Villa's defensive resilience gave him a headache.

Aston Villa's formation in local defense is usually dominated by three people, especially against Messi, Iniesta, Xavi and others, it can be said that the defense is to the extreme.

There is pressing and blocking, and an effective compound siege with different divisions of labor and different functions can be quickly organized in a very short period of time.

It's a very resilient defense.

It is on the basis of this flexible and varied defensive formation and formation that Aston Villa's defensive level has been implemented very well!

Guardiola turned his head and glanced at Fang Jue, who was on Aston Villa's coaching bench. He hadn't seen him for two years, and this guy was even more powerful.

Guardiola even had the illusion that he was playing against a wily coach who combined the iron discipline of German football with the chain defense and superb tactical qualities of Italian football.

...

"Barcelona's corner kick." David Zamora said, "The corner kick is a rare good opportunity for Barcelona, ​​which has been slow to start the game."

"Barcelona should pay attention to defending Aston Villa's counterattack." Dolores reminded.

He saw that both Pique and Mascherano came up to participate in the corner kick attack. If Aston Villa succeeded in a counterattack, Barcelona would basically stop.

Fang Jue took a glance. He saw that Pique and Mascherano came up to participate in the corner kick attack, and Abidal, Alves and Harvey stayed behind to defend.

This is also the basic routine of the corner attack and the defense of the opponent's counter-attack. Two fast full-backs and a midfielder stay in the half-court defense.

However, if it was Fang Jue, he would choose to let Mascherano stay behind and let Harvey go up to participate in the attack.

Obviously, Guardiola let Harvey stay behind, the meaning of defense is less, and more importantly, after cutting off Aston Villa's counterattack, Harvey will instigate the attack and beat Aston Villa's counterattack.

Fang Jue took a look at Guardiola and felt embarrassed for this old acquaintance. He must not only defend well, but also always think about attacking.

Iniesta takes the corner.

It didn't pose any threat to Aston Villa's goal. Pique wanted to compete for the top, but the tall Senderos used his height and good header ability to push the football out first.

The ball was captured by Clement, who held off Busquets' counter-attack, controlled the ball at his feet, and then swept the ball sideways to Ballack.

...

Ballack directly launched a long pass, and Aston Villa launched a quick counterattack.

Aston Villa's two previous counterattacks succeeded, both of which were empty after Alves pressed up.

This time, Alves did not press up, and Aston Villa's counterattack failed to succeed.

Bale dribbled the ball and he was entangled by Alves.

Bell passed the ball to Ronaldo who came to meet him.

Abidal predicted in advance and stabbed first, and the football was stabbed away.

Harvey quickly approached and snatched the football away.

Barcelona immediately turned from defense to offense.

Harvey made a long pass to Iniesta in front of him.

Iniesta didn't stop the ball and rubbed the pass.

"Beautiful!" The commentary was full of admiration. Although Barcelona has not been able to score a goal, this cannot conceal the superb skills of the Barcelona players.

In fact, this is exactly the case. Before the attack is surrounded and contained near the penalty area, Barcelona's offense is still relatively beautiful... However, it is useless.

Messi got the ball and he received it with his back to the attacking direction.

Clement stuck firmly behind him, preventing Messi from turning.

But I didn't expect Messi to take the ball with his arch while catching the ball, and at the same time Messi turned around quickly.

Despite some staggering, Messi leaned forward, stabilized his center of gravity, and passed successfully.

Clement did not expect Messi to complete such an action under such circumstances.

...

However, it is not enough to want to pass Clement.

Clement strode forward with long legs, caught up with Messi, saw an opportunity, and shoveled the football out with a beautiful sideways sliding tackle on the ground. Messi was also brought to the ground, and the two fell together. .

There was a huge boo from the Barcelona fans, who thought it was a foul.

The Aston Villa fans cheered, applauding Clement's successful defense.

The referee Kasai did not blow the whistle. He was in a good position and could see clearly that Clement tackled the football first. This was not a foul.

After the ball was shoveled, Aston Villa did a good job of protecting the second point, Deisler grabbed the ball and he passed it directly behind Ballack.

The latter quickly played the ball.

Shevchenko has the ball on the right.

Amid the boos of the Barcelona fans and the cheers of the Aston Villa fans, Aston Villa's counterattack came again.

The Ukrainian veteran dribbled the ball forward, Pedro was chasing back, and Harvey intercepted in front.

When approaching Harvey, when the two were about to touch, Shevchenko suddenly stopped suddenly and at the same time passed the football horizontally.

Ballack, who runs forward at high speed after completing the pass, gets the ball.

However, Pedro, who returned to defense, stretched out his foot and touched the ball when Shevchenko passed the ball, and the football bounced.

This made it difficult for Ballack to stop the ball, and by the time he had done it, Busquets had posted it.

Meanwhile, in front, Mascherano also came up.

...

"Beautiful! Barcelona's defense is very good this time, which is the role of replacing Mascherano!" Dolores praised.

Faced with this situation of being double-teamed front and back, the German veteran did not panic. He did not play the ball blindly, but controlled the football while observing the running positions of his teammates.

Then, Ballack made a move to break through from the left, but it was very subtle to push the football from Mascherano's legs.

Ronaldo received the football, the Brazilian pulled the ball and turned around, and immediately started to speed up.

Pique hurried to intercept.

Ronaldo stepped on the bicycle continuously, trying to make a breakthrough, but suddenly passed the football diagonally.

Bell, who had been sprinting, arrived, he jumped in from the back row at high speed, a successful anti-offside, he received the ball!

"Bell! He's in!"

"God! Aston Villa's counterattack is done again!"

"Single-handed!" narrators all over the world exclaimed.

In the huge uproar, Bell faced Valdez who was attacking, and he chose to shoot with his left foot.

The football arced past Valdez's left.

Valdez's left hand appeared to have touched the football.

Valdez was still looking behind him as he fell backwards, eager to see the football thrown by him.

However, Valdez barely touched the football, which did not completely change the forward flight trend of the football. The football went up and continued to fly, and finally almost stuck to the lower edge of the crossbar and hung into the net.

Three to zero!

The huge new Wembley Stadium, as this arc spiraled into the net, a huge sound burst out...
