Chapter 331 De Rong, a Bad Learner

"Green Silly Waist ()" Find the latest chapter!

Manchester City pulled a goal back, which to a certain extent boosted their morale.

But Barcelona were not discouraged, and the encouragement from the audience relieved their frustrated hearts a little.

Now, they have two options.

One is to defend across the board and maintain the current score until the end. This is the safest way.

The other is to continue the previous attack.

The answer is obvious. For Barcelona, ​​this is their home court and they cannot show timidity.

attack! !

Back to the center circle for the kickoff.

Suarez passed the ball back to De Jong after the whistle sounded.

De Jong continued to pass back to Yile, but Yile still chose to pass back to Pique.

For Barcelona now, they need to be clear that they cannot be anxious, and from the score, the anxious party is Manchester City.

The back pass is the right choice, allowing City players to penetrate, which is more conducive to their choice of attacking route.

As for Manchester City, it's a bit difficult to make a decision.

If they invest too much force in the frontcourt press, they will not be able to grab the ball. If they invest too much force, it is likely to give Barcelona a chance to counterattack.

But Manchester City has no choice. Who told them to fall behind?

Both sides are wrestling, and the midfield is their first battlefield.

Yile and De Bruyne are both the best midfielders of this century. It can be said that after the previous generation of midfield masters retired, these two people took up the banner of midfield art.

And compared to the previous midfield masters, the style of these two is undoubtedly more radical.

Both commanders are radicals, which makes this game more confrontational and more enjoyable to watch.

In the arena, you compete with me, and both sides refuse to give in to each other.

Barcelona tried several attacks, but under pressure from Manchester City, they could only attempt a shot from outside the penalty area.

It was similar on Manchester City's side. Under Barcelona's pressing, they could only pass the ball long and couldn't cooperate on the ground at all.

Both sides suppressed the other's advantages and did not give any chance.

Yi Le is still observing Manchester City's position. He hopes that Manchester City can create one or two gaps, or there can be a time difference when changing defense.

But Manchester City didn't give Yile this chance at all. Their coordinated defense was very good, and even Yile couldn't find a suitable passing point.

Every time, he forced the ball to Messi or Griezmann, hoping that the two could use their personal abilities to tear apart the opponent's defense.

But Yile's idea is obviously a bit naive. Manchester City made perfect use of position and space while marking.

The atmosphere at the entire Camp Nou was somewhat depressing.

Barcelona fans clenched their fists.

Although they had the advantage in terms of the situation on the field, Manchester City put too much pressure on them.

They know very well that if they are not careful, Manchester City can replicate the previous goal again.

This is something Barcelona cannot accept.

Guardiola gave loud instructions from the sidelines, and with his shouts, Manchester City's defense became more and more stable.

At this moment, for the first time, Barcelona fans had bad thoughts about this once meritorious coach.

‘How can I tell this bald guy to shut up! ’

In the live commentary box, Comans looked at the time, 73 minutes.

There were still nearly 17 minutes left, but he felt like the day was passing like a year.

Every collision between Barcelona and Manchester City players would make him feel frightened.

He was afraid that the Barcelona players failed to protect the ball and Manchester City kicked a quick counterattack.

Although, until now, Barcelona players have done a good job, but who can guarantee that there will be no accidents?

"Griezmann and Kyle Walker were competing for the ball. Griezmann did not have the physical advantage. He reluctantly passed the ball to Yi Le, and Yi Le resisted Gundogan's annoyance and completed the transfer... Phew~~~~"

Speaking of which,

Comans took a long breath.

During the entire fighting stage, he held his breath and did not dare to relax for a moment.

He wasn't able to breathe until the ball completed its transfer and landed in an open area, but the problem still existed....

"Physical problems have arisen, especially for the defenders. Facing the opponent's sharp attack, they are under tremendous pressure."

What can be seen is that people like Umtiti and Otamendi have chests rising and falling like blowers, their heads are covered with sweat, and their waists are inserted from time to time, looking exhausted.

It can be seen from the surface that their physical fitness has reached its limit.

At this time, the whistle sounded.

Everyone turned around and saw that the head coaches of both teams had made substitutions at the same time.

Barcelona replaced Umtiti and brought on Lenglet.

Manchester City replaced Otamendi and replaced him with Cancelo.

Seeing this substitution, Zhan Jun explained: "The substitutions on both sides were very targeted. Barcelona still maintained the stability of their tactics and completed the substitutions. Umtiti came off the field and replaced him with the physically fit Lenglet. . As for Manchester City, they replaced a defender and a midfielder."

Zhang Lu nodded and said: "Manchester City is going to strengthen their attack. Now there is not much time left. Guardiola is a little anxious. He needs someone to help him score. With the forward not moving, he can only strengthen the control of the midfield. , so Manchester City’s formation has also changed, from 4-3-3 to 3-4-3.”

"Manchester City can't wait any longer. In the next ten minutes, the offensive pressure will come to Manchester City's side. They need to attack and they need to score goals in order to retain their hope of reaching the final."

boom! ! !

As the two talked, the confrontation in the arena became more intense.

De Jong and Gundogan collided.

De Jong, who was originally thin in terms of body shape, should have been knocked out, but De Jong almost gritted his teeth and pulled Gundogan forcefully, which blocked Manchester City's intention to counterattack.

"Nice job!!"

Yi Le encouraged loudly.

The position just now was very dangerous. If De Jong failed to hold Gundogan, Barcelona would probably be in danger of conceding the ball if they did not retrace in time.

Although this tactical foul gave Manchester City a free kick, it was innocuous.

De Jong helped them gain time to retreat.

Barcelona players retreated quickly, with Messi and Griezmann both back.

However, De Jong did not choose to stand up, but slowly raised his hands.

Seeing this scene, Yi Le was stunned for a moment, then smiled.

De Jong, a bad learner.

Soon, Barcelona's team doctors ran onto the field, and Valverde immediately made a substitution.

Busquets replaces De Jong.

De Jong successfully delayed Barcelona for nearly 2 minutes.

If he hadn't seen the Manchester City players looking like they were about to tear themselves apart, De Jong would have wanted to limp off the field by himself.

But he didn't dare!
