"Messi! Messi! This is Leo Messi. At the critical moment, he stood up and equalized the score for Barcelona!"
Comans roared excitedly. As a Barcelona native, he always has special feelings for Messi.
They hope that the Barcelona king can always be at the top and lead the team to overcome difficulties as he once did.
In fact, Messi's condition has not been good since this season, which has also made fans worried. They can accept many things, but they cannot accept Messi's decline.
Now, this goal allows them to see the shadow of Messi's peak again, how can it not be gratifying?
The score was equalized, and a small number of Barcelona fans cheered happily.
The Barcelona players were celebrating wantonly, while the Manchester City players looked helpless.
They thought Barcelona could equalize, but the moment came too quickly.
Commentators from all over the world are praising this goal. This is the battle at Tianwangshan in their imagination.
Compared to the two teams in the top half, Barcelona and Manchester City in the bottom half always stand out a lot in terms of influence and strength.
After these two teams met, the impact was huge.
Therefore, this Champions League semi-final attracted a lot of attention, and the performance of the two teams was indeed wonderful.
In the 39th minute of the first half, the two teams were tied 1:1.
Despite the huge consumption, both teams maintained considerable restraint in the next few minutes.
They all made the most of it in the second half.
Soon, 45 minutes passed, and with the referee's whistle, the two returned to their respective locker rooms.
"You have to play more resolutely. You need to drive the offense from the two wings instead of just relying on Yi!"
Valverde put his arm around De Jong's shoulders and shouted.
In the first half, De Jong's performance was not very impressive.
In the confrontation between Yi Le and De Bruyne, he even lost himself a little. In other words, this past confrontation made De Jong feel physically and mentally exhausted.
In fact, he is not a player who can adapt to a fast pace.
However, Valverde's task of sending him on the field was not to let him fight head-on with the Manchester City midfielder.
"One kick! Just one kick! A transfer to stabilize the situation, a pass back to allow teammates to breathe. This time is your mission!"
Valverde thought very clearly that De Jong's task in this game was 'that crucial kick'.
As the tempo of both teams continues to increase, the fast pace will squeeze the opponent's throat tightly while suppressing it.
Problems such as narrowed field of vision and higher than expected physical exertion will emerge. At this time, De Jong needs to make that crucial kick. However, from the first half, his task completion was not high.
The two sides have been locked in a bayonet battle. Facing the rhythm of competition between Yi Le and De Bruyne, De Jong was somewhat unable to intervene.
"I'll do it!"
De Jong's face was a little red. He clearly knew how poor his performance was in the first half.
The tasks on the defensive end can only be considered satisfactory, and they did not provide much support on the offensive end. It was all Yi Le who was dragging the entire team forward.
For such a performance, De Jong also felt that it was unjustifiable.
Valverde is giving De Jong a small start, while Yile and others are sitting and taking a full rest.
Yi Le sat on the bench, shirtless, allowing the body's heat to fully evaporate.
The assistant coach even took out an ice pack, and Yi Le raised his head and put it on his eyes to cool down.
As a midfielder, he watches a lot more than passes the ball.
In one attack, he turned his head to observe 20-30 times.
On the other side, the same is true in Manchester City's dressing room. Guardiola continued to explain the tasks of the second half, and the players listened quietly.
The second half is the key. When the two sides are tied, whoever scores first will take the initiative.
The intermission passed quietly.
Players from both sides walked out of the locker room again, changing sides and fighting again.
There are no changes to the lineups on both sides.
"Looking at the lineups in the second half, the head coaches of both sides did not make any substitutions. The lack of personnel transfers means that there were no changes in tactics on both sides."
Zhan Jun said with a smile.
"Yes, I have to say that the confrontation in the first half was very exciting. Both sides chose to attack. It was a fist-to-bone fight, and under the influence of the fast pace, how will this game develop? Who will It’s also unpredictable, and although it’s painful for the players, it’s a rare gluttonous feast for us fans!”
Zhang Lu said with the same smile.
As the two talked, the game officially began.
Barcelona took the lead to kick off, and as soon as the game started, Barcelona adopted a sneak attack tactic.
But Manchester City seemed to have expected it, and everyone's position was very conservative.
Yi Le took the ball to the left rib and found that there was no good chance.
He glanced at Messi's position and was unable to form a connection with him. This made Yi Le take a few steps and decisively choose to pass the ball.
Yi Le moved laterally, and with Yi Le's movement, the ball gradually moved to the right.
Manchester City's defense line is of high quality, and it immediately moves to the right to block the ball in a curve. At the same time, Manchester City's high-position pressing also constantly threatens Barcelona's passing and control tactics.
Yi Le moved towards the right as always. He looked up at Griezmann. Their eyes met and they immediately understood each other.
Yi Le passed a kick to Griezmann, who did not move towards the baseline, but cut inside.
Immediately, Manchester City's defense began to tighten. At this moment, Griezmann suddenly stuffed the ball diagonally to the right.
And there, Yi Le suddenly came out, strode towards the ball, and burst towards the baseline.
"Nice cross move!"
Zhan Jun shouted subconsciously, this cross move is really wonderful.
Whether it is Yi Le or Griezmann, they have deceived almost everyone.
Yi Le is very fast. In fact, his speed is not a weakness. Both his explosive power and endurance are very good. Although he cannot compare with those 'top supercars', it is still enough to get rid of him.
Yi Le moved forward in an unstoppable manner and immediately created a gap in Manchester City's impregnable defense line.
Reaching the bottom line, Yi Le did not choose to pass high, but cleverly took advantage of the opponent's full-back's pause to complete a crotch pass.
This is a low and diagonal ball that flies towards the penalty area line.
And there, Suarez was ready to shoot.
"Stop him!!"
Everyone in Manchester roared in fear.
At this time, they didn't care anymore and rushed directly towards him with a vicious sliding shovel.
Suarez was tackled to the ground before he even touched the ball.
In an instant, the Barcelona players were excited. They raised their hands immediately and roared: "Foul!! This is a penalty!!"
