Chapter 505 This Is the World's Top Superstar!

"Barcelona launched an attack on the left."

"Ronaldinho dribbled the ball inside, Finnan was clinging to him, there was no chance."

"The ball went back to the left and it was handed to Zambrotta."

"Zambrotta takes the ball and crosses it!"

"Later!"

"Deco!"

"The ball is in!!!!"

"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!"

"In the fourteenth minute, just fourteen minutes into the game, Deco scored a beautiful header eight meters in front of the goal!"

...

After Deco scored, he rushed out of the field in excitement.

The entire Camp Nou stadium, 95,000 fans, shouted in unison, chanting Deco's name.

That scene was so exciting!

Barcelona's players also rushed towards Deco, including Puyol, who was rumored to be at odds with the Brazilian players, also stepped forward to celebrate Deco's goal.

Head coach Rijkaard also danced with excitement on the sidelines.

He is obviously very clear that this goal has undoubtedly played a role in stabilizing the military for Barcelona!

...

"One to zero!"

"Barcelona made a pretty good start."

"It was an opportunity created on the left, Ronaldinho dribbled the ball to attract Finnan's attention, and then suddenly passed back to the left, Zambrotta followed and crossed and assisted Deco with a header. !"

"This goal reflects the tactical cooperation that Barcelona has always had."

"In fact, from the perspective of the ten minutes after the opening, Barcelona's ball control and overall advantages are relatively obvious."

"On the contrary, Liverpool mainly focuses on defensive counterattacks, but the Red Army is not conservative, and does not hide in front of their own penalty area as previously rumored, but creates pressure by actively pressing and pressing. ."

"But in this way, the probability of the team making mistakes will inevitably increase."

"Let's take another look at this slow-motion replay."

"When Zambrotta crossed, Mohamed Sissoko obviously didn't follow Deco in time, which led to Deco's subsequent header, almost unmarked."

"This is definitely a big mistake, because we said before the game just now, Liverpool's header advantage is very obvious, if Sissoko followed Deco just now, I believe Deco would be very difficult to header. opportunity."

"But no matter what, mistakes have been made and Liverpool have to be careful."

…………

…………

Benitez patted his forehead hard.

His hairline had receded very high, bald and a little oily.

The whole person kept shaking his head and walked back.

What he feared before the game still happened.

Mohamed Sissoko has been absent from the game for too long, which caused him to be unable to keep up with the rhythm after the start. He was thrown off by Deco just now. It was obvious that he would not smell the danger for a while.

Missing for a long time will make the player's senses numb and become less sharp.

But he doesn't regret his choice, as Mascherano has also been short of games for a long time, and the Argentine is more unfamiliar with Liverpool's tactics, so he will still choose Mohamed Sissoko.

He knows the Mali midfielder and believes he will get used to it as time goes on.

As soon as he walked to the coach's bench, Benitez turned around again, quickly came to the sidelines, and shouted at the pitch.

"Dick, follow him, follow him, he'll stare me when he comes up!"

This conceded goal is not just the responsibility of Mohamed Sissoko. Kuyt did not follow Zambrotta for the first time and gave him the opportunity to cross easily, which is also a big problem.

"Mohammad, it's okay, focus, focus on the game!"

"Steven, Harvey, you should put more pressure on your opponents and suppress the midfield, understand?"

"Daniel, you have to keep up and let Jamie go out a little longer."

"Let them pass halftime, pay attention, pay close attention, and pay attention to what should be released!"

Benitez shouted several inexplicable words one after another and shouted into the pitch from the sidelines.

Everyone knew he was on the spot, but nobody but Liverpool knew what he was talking about.

…………

…………

After the team conceded a goal first, Yang Yang gritted his teeth in frustration and exhaled heavily.

He forced himself to calm down and continue to focus on the game.

Then, he heard an order from Benitez on the sidelines.

Benitez is reminding Kuyt to keep up with Zambrotta, to have Gerrard and Xavi Alonso put more pressure on Xavi and Thiago Motta to suppress Barcelona's midfield, Let Daniel Agger keep an eye on Saviola and let Carragher move to the right.

At the same time, he also kept the team compact, allowing Barcelona to push through the half.

It's the way Barcelona like to have the ball, they like to cross the half.

And the last sentence should be put, said Crouch.

Benitez means that Crouch should not force Puyol anymore, because in the tactics formulated by Liverpool before the game, the coaching staff means that it is best to let Barcelona's ball pass to Puyol. .

why?

Because Puyol is a right-footed player, but plays as a left central defender, which makes him uncomfortable, and the risk of passing and receiving errors is greater, so Crouch has to keep an eye on another central defender, a Mexican player. Rafael Marcos.

...

In fact, after the opening, Liverpool played not bad.

Gerrard sent a straight pass and Yang Yang made a cross from the left, but Crouch didn't keep up and missed a chance.

Ronaldinho took the ball from the left several times and cut inwards, all of which were caught in the double-team of Finnan, Gerrard and Carragher.

One of them, in the twelfth minute, fell in the penalty area and tried to take a penalty, but the referee did not pay attention.

Arbeloa is dedicated to marking Messi, and the Argentine players did not perform very well after the opening. Barcelona's offense was mainly concentrated on the left side, and the right side was basically misfiring.

This is not surprising. Yang Yang is holding Belletti in the frontcourt, and Messi is restricted by Abeloa. Barcelona's right attack channel cannot be opened, so he can only go more left.

...

Ronaldinho is indeed too strong!

Although many people have said this season that he has not been able to maintain the peak form of last season, the Brazilian is still very magical, almost as long as the ball reaches his feet, anyone, even three players at the same time double-team him , he can protect the ball and then pass it out.

He can dribble with ease, as if any defender was in vain in front of him.

The goal just now, it seemed that Zambrotta made a cross, but before that, Ronaldinho's goal made Zambrotta throw Kuyt away, and both the ball and the cross were at the same time. conduct.

This is the world's top superstar!

Yang Yang has to admit that he is still too far away from Ronaldinho in terms of his personal ability and the wisdom of playing football.

But this game he wants to win!

This desire to win becomes even more urgent with Deco's header!

…………

…………

With Benitez's successive adjustments, Liverpool stabilized their position.

With Daniel Agger taking on more of Saviola's responsibilities, Carragher is starting to free up his hands to help defend Finnan.

In this way, Liverpool's defense in the entire right half is stable.

Restricting Barcelona's left flank, even if Liverpool's defensive task is more than half completed, coupled with Abeloa restricting Messi on the right flank, Barcelona's flanks are no longer able to gallop as they please.

After the back line stabilized, Benitez immediately adjusted again, and the entire back line of the team slowly pressed forward.

This is also the tactic that Liverpool have practiced in the past few days, because Barcelona is not good at playing behind the back, especially when Eto'o is absent, they are more accustomed to passing, or relying on the individual ability of the players, rather than going straight behind.

In this way, Liverpool dared to press the defense out.

Barcelona's backline pressed past half-time, and Liverpool's backline struggled to press out of the penalty area, which flattened the formation of the two sides, while Barcelona had a huge space behind them.

This is what Benitez mentioned when he focused on attacking before the game, the area where Liverpool's counterattack focused on attacking.

Crouch and Kuyt are two points, and Yang Yang is a sharp knife!

It's easy to say in theory, but it's hard to play on the court.

Barcelona's excellent ability to pass and control the ball, the players' personal ability is outstanding, and they occupy the advantage of the Devil's home court. This in itself leaves Liverpool with few counterattack opportunities, especially in the first half.

In the few opportunities, it is not easy to quickly threaten and cooperate.

Liverpool have targeted tactics, and Barcelona have targeted tactics as well.

If the high point could not be grabbed, they tried to control the second landing point.

The Red Army counterattacked several times near the front line. Although they all grabbed the first landing point, the second landing point was never passed well.

Belletti followed Yang Yang the whole time.

Obviously, Rijkaard's strategy is exactly the same as Benitez's strategy against Messi.

He would rather sacrifice Belletti's attack on the right to freeze Yang Yang.

Of course, none of this was unexpected by Benitez.

As early as before the game, he has repeatedly told the players that the first half will definitely be Barcelona's world.

On the one hand, their physical fitness is still there, and they are fighting at home. The attacking firepower must be fierce.

In the face of Barcelona in the first half, if Liverpool can stabilize the defense, even if it is successful, it can only rely on luck to fight back. What the team really wants to do is in the second half.

...

The game also went ahead as Benitez had expected.

The only error was Mohamed Sissoko's one in the 14th minute, which resulted in a conceded goal.

After that, Liverpool steadied their defense and Barcelona made several attacks but failed to get past Liverpool's goal.

Although they gave Barcelona four or five chances to shoot, they were either long-range shots or barely kicking. There was no real threatening shot, but Liverpool themselves paid the price of two yellow cards.

Once, Daniel Agger knocked down Saviola from behind, and once Kuyt knocked down Zambrotta up front.

In the 38th minute of the game, Yang Yang got a chance on the left. Just as he was about to rush the ball, Belletti fouled decisively and was shown a yellow card by the referee.
