Football King Bale

The reports about Manchester United and Bayern in the British media on the second day were indeed full of criticism of De Gea. Many media said that De Gea's performance did not meet the identity of Manchester United's main goalkeeper. Although the Spanish goalkeeper is sometimes amazing However, there are also many extremely low-level mistakes and extreme lack of stability, especially for the shortcomings of high-altitude ball saves. It is very fatal. It is recommended that Manchester United introduce a more reliable goalkeeper this summer.

Of course, De Gea was not the only one who was criticized. Many Manchester United players, including Vidic, were named and criticized by the media. In particular, Manchester United captain Vidic is listed as the second culprit for Manchester United's failure to win away games after De Gea.

In the last two seasons, the Serbian's state has declined very badly. Last season, although Manchester United was unbeaten throughout the season, the Manchester United defense led by Vidic was not stable, which dug many holes for Van der Sar's goal. Manchester United's amazing record is because the offensive line led by Bell performed so well, and they can always score more goals than the defensive line.

This season, although the Serbian is the first captain of Manchester United, he cannot conceal the fact that he has gradually become a marginal man in Manchester United's defense. Because of frequent injuries, Vidic rarely played in Manchester United. The captain of Manchester United, who has just turned 30 years old, is not even as good as Ferdinand, who is 3 years older than him. Such a situation is undoubtedly very abnormal.

The other two duo, Rooney and Nani, were criticized by name. These two are the culprit for Manchester United's failure to score more goals on the field.

Although Rooney has achieved his second best season data in Manchester United this season, he is in a state of confusion. No one can guess how he will be in the next game. When he is in good form, he can set a record for consecutive goals. Sometimes, it is also possible to not score in consecutive games.

Nani is a habitual wave. In this game, because Bell attracted enough defensive power from Bayern on the left side, this made Nani's right side defensive power unprecedentedly weak, and Nani also got a chance to fight , but the Portuguese winger failed to grasp it once.

At the critical moment, Bayern's defensive players even dared to let him shoot and not defend. From this, one can imagine how rough this guy is, and his roughness made opponents feel at ease about him.

Although other Manchester United players were not named and criticized, they were not praised either. Overall, they lack presence. The only person who received praise was Bell. He set the record for the fastest goal in the Champions League and helped Manchester United get a valuable away goal. In the ensuing game, Bell also worked very hard, and his breakthrough on the left was very sharp. , forcing Bayern to concentrate two or three people on him at any time for targeted defense. If it weren't for Bell's existence, Manchester United would have been lucky not to have won an away draw.

When the British media overwhelmingly criticized the performance of Manchester United players, another Champions League semi-final was also played at Stamford Bridge.

Although all aspects were optimistic about the Cosmos team before the game, Di Matteo's Chelsea played very resolutely at home. Italy's chain defense made Barcelona's defense without temper. In terms of offense, the 33-year-old Drogba alone disturbed the defense of the red and blue champions, and finally scored the winning goal to kill Barcelona.

It is worth mentioning that this goal is Drogba's 5th Champions League goal this season, and it is also the 9th goal he has scored in the last 8 matches against La Liga teams on behalf of Chelsea, averaging over 1 goal per game Let Warcraft become a nightmare for La Liga teams.

Hull City striker Altidore tweeted: "Drogba is a monster!"

Premier League star Savage said: "Pay attention to Drogba's feet, his feet can always create magic!"

Drogba's counterpart, Newcastle striker Demba Ba lamented: "Chelsea fans can once again shout 'Thank you! Drogba!'"

Also today, Messi became the only football player among Time Magazine's 100 Most Influential People in 2012, the other being Bale. But at Stamford Bridge tonight, Messi failed to continue his recent fiery feeling in front of goal. And it is extremely rare that the fleas also need to take full responsibility for Barcelona's conceded goals.

Tonight is the seventh time in Messi's career against Chelsea, and the fleas still haven't been able to find a magic weapon to break through the Blues. Chelsea stationed heavily in the middle, and Messi had almost no room to display his personal abilities. Although Messi had 7 shots throughout the game, only one long-range header created a slight threat.

Messi is really good at breakthroughs. The fleas succeeded in all 6 breakthroughs and created 2 yellow cards for the opponent. But even if the Argentine can break through three defensive players, Chelsea's fourth man will complete the steal, and the fleas conceded as many as 10 times in the game.

A hungry tiger can't beat a pack of wolves, and Chelsea's extremely targeted defensive system has greatly reduced Messi's power. Due to the lack of sprint space, Messi also failed to complete the grab point in the penalty area.

Messi worked very hard, and the fleas also tried to break through and score the ball, but his teammates were not strong. Messi once stole Mikel in the midfield and sent a one-handed goal for Cesc Fabregas. It's a pity that Xiaofa's shot from the left side of the penalty area was too weak, and Ashley Kerhou made an easy clearance in front of the goal. Messi also sent Puyol a great free kick in the 86th minute, but Petr Cech made a world-class save.

For Barcelona, ​​Messi's dependence is a very sensitive topic. Flea can almost always maintain a very high competitive state, which makes Barcelona can rely on him most of the time. But once Messi is blocked, the red and blue army will be in big trouble, and tonight is the best example.

In the last 15 appearances, Messi scored in 13 of them, and the fleas scored a total of 26 goals. But when Messi didn't score, Barcelona handed in consecutive goalless draws. Their opponents were AC Milan at San Siro and Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.

How to activate the firepower other than Messi is a problem that Guardiola must solve before the second round. Chelsea will definitely continue to place a bus in front of the door, while Barcelona cannot respond to changes with the same.

On the offensive end, Messi lived up to Guardiola's trust. And one of his careless mistakes may end Barcelona's Champions League dream this season.

During stoppage time in the first half, Messi slipped and fell to the ground while running in the frontcourt. The fleas, while not injured, were clearly affected psychologically.

Tens of seconds later, Messi tried to spike the ball to break through Lampard when the midfielder was in possession of the ball, but Chelsea No. 8 easily completed the steal. Lampard then sent a long pass, Ramirez assisted Drogba to score.

Messi's needless midfield goal caused Barcelona to be kicked out by the opponent for a quick counterattack, which directly led to the loss of points.

Fleas made the wrong decision in the wrong spot, and he could have opted to cross the ball to a teammate instead of risking a breakthrough. Because even if Messi broke through Lampard, it would not help Barcelona's offense at that time.

………………

In fact, Manchester United is also facing the same problem as Barcelona, ​​and that is Baer's dependence. The goals made by one person accounted for nearly 60% of Manchester United's offensive firepower. The role of Manchester United is more critical than Messi's role in Barcelona.

Manchester United's away game against Bayern has many similarities with Barcelona's away game against Chelsea. For example, on the scene, they are all anti-customers and occupy the obvious advantage on the field, such as the results of the game are very regrettable, and so on.

However, Bell is obviously more trustworthy than Messi. It was he who helped the team score early and disrupted Bayern's rhythm, which made Manchester United calm in the away game. In the subsequent game, although Bell failed to score again, it involved too much defensive power of Bayern. It was only because his teammates failed his efforts that Manchester United failed to further rewrite the score.

Moreover, Bell not only made significant contributions on the offensive end, but also contributed a lot on the defensive end when the team's defense was tight.

It is precisely because Bell performed so well that it seems a pity that Manchester United only got an away draw.

In response to the performance of the two, the British media is very proud to say that this is the reason why Bell can overwhelm Messi and become the number one player in football. Compared with Bell who always performed eye-catching at critical moments, Messi is habitually lost at critical moments. This is the gap between the two.

………………

The two games in the first round of the semi-finals are over, and the score is very ideal for the Premier League duo. This made the British media very excited. The scene that appeared in Moscow four years ago will be reproduced at the Allianz Arena.

Recalling that before the quarter-finals, all parties were optimistic that there would be a civil war in the Western Super League in the final. No one thought that the real possibility of a civil war in the final would be a civil war in the Premier League. First, Real Madrid was eliminated by the Red Devils Manchester United without any suspense, and now the Cosmos team Barcelona is also cornered by the blue team Chelsea.

The British media have such confidence, and the problem is mainly with Barcelona. Barcelona has lost in the first round of the Champions League semi-finals 6 times in history, and only one of them has advanced. That has to be traced back to the distant 1986-1987 season. Lost to Gothenburg from Sweden 0:3 away in the round. In the second round, Pizzi staged a hat-trick to equalize the score at Camp Nou. Barcelona advanced to the final through a penalty shootout. In addition, Barcelona lost all the remaining 5 times.

But it doesn't mean that Barcelona really has no chance, because they have staged a comeback against Chelsea. In the quarter-finals of the Champions League in the 1999-2000 season, Barcelona once staged a shocking reversal against Chelsea.

At that time, Barcelona lost 1-3 away in the first leg. In the second leg at Camp Nou, Dani scored a key goal in the 83rd minute, helping Barcelona equalize the total score and dragging the game into overtime. Rivaldo made a penalty in the 99th minute. A penalty kick was scored, and in the 104th minute Kluivert scored a goal to seal the victory. Barcelona completed the reversal 5:1.

What's more interesting is that the two head coaches Guardiola and Di Matteo both participated in that game as players and played 120 minutes.
