In the last round between Barcelona and Atletico Madrid, Lin Rui left a deep psychological shadow on Mascherano.

However, he remembered the pain caused to him by having a head-on confrontation with the opponent after he released the shovel.

That time he lay in bed for more than a month.

Before this competition, he once made bold words to make Lin Rui look good.

At the beginning of the game, he did work hard to defend Lin Rui, and Lin Rui’s several breakthrough attacks were indeed unsuccessful.

This gave him the illusion that Lin Rui was restricted by him.

Just when he was satisfied, he didn’t expect Lin Rui to give him a loud slap in the face.

The opponent’s overhead shot just now was completed under his nose.

He didn’t even have the slightest idea, and he used all the tricks he could, but in the end he still couldn’t prevent the opponent from scoring.

To be honest, he felt very powerless at this moment.

It is the feeling of powerlessness against absolute power.

As an iron-blooded defender, he has rarely felt this powerless after so many years on the court.

How many powerful forwards have failed in front of him, but he has never been afraid of anyone.

But at this moment, he was really afraid of the Chinese man.

It is a kind of awe for the strong and a kind of despair for the huge gap between oneself and the other party.

He felt a little ashamed of this feeling, and he didn’t want to admit it, but it was real.

He can put on a nonchalant look on the surface, but he can’t deceive himself on the inside.

“Hey! Javier! What are you thinking about? Don’t think too much. No one can guarantee 100% success in defending that guy.”

While Mascherano was fighting, the voice of captain Puyol came to his ears.

Hearing Puyol’s words, Mascherano nodded and said helplessly:”I understand. , but I just feel very unhappy”

“I understand how you feel. That guy is not a human being at all. We ordinary people should not compete with a beast. Next time we will deal with him together.”Puyol patted Mascherano’s shoulder and consoled him.

“Well, you’re right, I really shouldn’t be wrestling with a beast.”Mascherano seemed to have figured something out, and the expression on his face became much more relaxed.

At this time, the Atletico Madrid players who had finished celebrating had returned to their own half.

Seeing that the players on both sides were all in position, the referee The whistle was blown to restart the game.

A delicate balance is formed between the two sides. For a moment, who There was nothing anyone could do.
