Midfielder Ruler

There were about five minutes left before the start of the game. Players from both sides came to the player tunnel one after another under the reminder of the Spanish Football Federation staff to make final preparations.

Through live television, fans sitting in front of the TV can see the mental outlook of the players on both sides of the game.

Whether it is the home team Barcelona players or the visiting team Real Madrid players, most of them seem a little nervous, because the next game will directly affect the competition for the league championship this season, so the players on both sides are under tremendous pressure.

Including Barcelona star Messi, who frowned and was worried.

When the on-site director's close-up shot showed Real Madrid No. 10 Tang Zheng, Central 5 commentator He Wei laughed and said: "It's exactly the same as the Tang Zheng we knew in the past. Tang Zheng doesn't know what nervousness is at all! He's about to win the league championship. If you have this mentality in the national derby, how can you not perform well?"

Because the game was so important, there was no communication between the two national players. At most, they just nodded and made haste.

It can be seen from this that the important nature of this national derby is evident.

In the past two minutes or so, referee Raos and his assistants led the players from both sides of the game into the stadium from the tunnel.

"Ouch, ouch, ouch -"

Suddenly, the packed Camp Nou stadium erupted with a loud roar like a mountain roar and a tsunami.

A few more seconds passed, and the huge cheers subsided.

It turned out that the Barcelona team song ":HIMNE-DEL-BARCELONA" sounded on the live broadcast, which translated into Chinese is: Barcelona Ode.

All Barcelona fans in the stadium sang Barcelona carols. The neat and tacit singing made the fanatical atmosphere of Camp Nou reach the clouds early, so that the hundreds of millions of Barcelona fans in front of the TV felt heartfelt pride.

Real Madrid fans and neutral fans also have a special feeling called...shock!

Barcelona fans have worked very hard to prepare for this closely watched national derby.

While singing, Barcelona fans also held up the mosaic boards placed under the seats in advance. In the stand opposite the main stand, which is the main stand, Barcelona fans pieced together a Barcelona home jersey with the Arabic numeral '12'.

The meaning is self-evident, Barcelona fans compare themselves to Barcelona's twelfth man!

On the other three stands, there are red and blue horizontal stripes, which form the traditional colors and team emblem of Barcelona.

Those fans who are not able to watch the game live can directly feel the fanatical atmosphere on the live TV, and the feeling of the Real Madrid players on the field is the most intuitive.

Feeling the fanatical atmosphere that hit his face, Tang Zheng, who was originally calm, also felt a little uneasy.

In this way, Barcelona fans tell the Barcelona players on the field that they have been preparing for this game for a long time, and should the Barcelona players in the game perform satisfactorily?

Messi, who has performed poorly in the past few El Clasicos, felt the hope of the fans. Messi secretly clenched his fists and worked hard to perform well in the next El Clasico and prove himself!

He has missed the FIFA Ballon d'Or for two consecutive years. If he wants to regain the FIFA Ballon d'Or, he must first show a convincing performance in the direct confrontation of El Clasico!

"Beep~"

With the whistle of the referee Raos on duty, the 28th round of the 2014-2015 La Liga season officially started!

Barcelona fans, who had a kick-off advantage, quickly launched a threatening attack under the leadership of Messi.

If Tang Zheng hadn't made up the position in time and made a tackle when Messi received the ball from Suarez, Messi would have very likely taken the ball and scored directly.

However, Tang Zheng, who blocked the ball, did not dare to control the ball too much and handed it directly to the left back Marcelo. The latter was pressed by Iniesta and lost the passing angle, so he had to choose to kick the ball out of the sideline, giving Barcelona a forward Sideline ball.

"Ouch, ouch, ouch—"

Although Barcelona only got a sideline ball, the Barcelona fans in the stands seemed to have seen the team's hope of winning, so they made huge cheers and cheered for the team, hoping that the team would score as soon as possible!

The fanatical atmosphere at home directly led to an improvement in the status of Barcelona players. In addition to Messi's excellent competitive level, Neymar and Suarez also performed well. However, facing the united Real Madrid defense, there was still no way to score in a short time.

The first five minutes passed quickly. Barcelona, ​​which had the advantage of home court, controlled the rhythm of the game. Real Madrid, the league leader, could only defend passively. Tang Zheng, who had been in excellent form recently, could only maintain a passive defensive posture.

Even Cristiano Ronaldo and James Rodriguez fully retreated to the half-court to assist the overall defense, leaving only Benzema wandering between Barcelona's two central defenders as a tactical suppression.

Once again, when faced with Tang Zheng's assisting defense, Messi did not choose to break through directly. Instead, he chose to cooperate with his teammates and wait until he was out of Tang Zheng's coverage before breaking through with the ball or passing a threatening ball.

It's not that Messi doesn't dare to go one-on-one with Tang Zheng, it can only be said that Messi is more stable and mature.

The bravery of an individual has no meaning in a football match. After all, football is a team sport, and you need to link up with other teammates to play good football.

The effect of Messi's wide-range running is obvious. He can give Neymar on the left a breakthrough space.

Whether it is Toni Kroos or Modric, their defensive skills are very poor and they can only suppress Neymar through numbers.

However, before the game, Barcelona coach Enrique emphasized that Neymar should break through decisively after Messi attracted Tang Zheng's defensive attention and open a gap from the offensive left. Therefore, he chose to break through even when faced with the tight marking of Real Madrid players.

Neymar is skilled at his feet and has strong explosive power, so he often has a very high success rate in breaking through with the ball.

It is a pity that the cross after the breakthrough was almost meaningless, otherwise Suarez, who is extremely capable of grabbing points, may directly threaten Casillas guarding the goal...

※※※

During this period, Tang Zheng felt a lot of pressure, and this pressure came from the more mature Messi.

If Messi chooses to break through with the ball, Tang Zheng is confident to limit Messi, but Messi chooses to cooperate with his teammates, and Messi has good control of the timing, knowing when to break through, knowing when to pass the ball, and how to defend the opponent. pose the greatest threat.

As time passed, Tang Zheng truly felt the terror of Messi.

However, Tang Zheng was able to obtain the honor that countless players dream of at the age of twenty-five, so there is something special about him.

Don’t admit defeat!

When we meet on a narrow road, the brave wins!

Barcelona during Guardiola's coaching period was known as the third dream team. The key player was not Messi, but the core Xavi.

Nowadays, as Xavi's age has increased and he can no longer meet the needs of focus battles, Iniesta and Messi need to bear Xavi's responsibilities, but some players are irreplaceable. Messi has his own playing characteristics, let him do it Any changes will inevitably affect the quality of Barcelona's frontcourt offense.

Messi's goals in the past two seasons have always been lower than Cristiano Ronaldo's. This is not because of a decline in his shooting skills, but because he is more involved in midfield offensive organization. The direct result is that the number of goals and assists have decreased. Increase.

You must know that the most worrying thing about Messi is shooting. Now let him share more offensive organization tasks. On the surface, it does solve the offensive organization problem caused by Xavi's absence. In fact, it sacrifices Messi's scoring. ability.

Before the game, Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti talked about this issue and wanted to keep Messi as far away from the goal as possible, so organizing the offense in the midfield can indirectly solve a big problem on Real Madrid's defensive end.

Although Barcelona has the absolute initiative, the shooting opportunity that actually threatens Casillas' goal has not yet appeared. The Barcelona fans in the stands enjoyed watching it and were in high spirits. However, Enrique, who was standing in the command area of ​​the home team coach, frowned. Locked up, uneasy.

Not scoring when you have the upper hand is a taboo in football!

In the blink of an eye, the game reached the 18th minute, and Barcelona attacked from the right to the left.

Neymar tried to break through the defense of Carvajal and Modric. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Suarez asking for the ball. He flicked the outside of his right foot very secretly. The ball rolled towards Sulia who pulled out of the penalty area and attacked the left rib. Reis's feet.

I don’t know if Pepe has been under tremendous pressure from Suarez in the past ten minutes. He made great defensive moves. Even though Suarez had his back to the goal, he pushed Suarez down behind him. The referee Rao was on duty. Si blew the whistle decisively and gave Barcelona a direct free kick attacking the left rib.

Because the position is relatively biased and the shooting angle is very small, the best solution is to pass the ball to the center of the penalty area, and let the taller players compete for the top.

Real Madrid's defensive players didn't care, because they had an absolute height advantage in the penalty area and were not afraid of Barcelona's high-altitude ball.

Immediately, the broadcast screen came from the Real Madrid penalty area to Messi and Neymar - they covered their mouths with their hands and were talking about something.

It is not difficult to guess that they are discussing how to take this free kick.

"Beep~"

Soon, the referee Raos blew his whistle, and the players on both sides of the Real Madrid penalty area became nervous.

At the same time, Neymar and Messi, who were standing in front of the football, both started running, but Neymar stopped after taking two steps.

"-Leo Messi!!"

Messi touched the ball on the inside of the instep of his left foot, and the ball flew forward, over the head of the double wall composed of Toni Kroos and Carvajal, and flew to the center of the penalty area.

The entangled Tang Zheng, Busquets, and Pique took off at the same time, but no one hit them and the football flew backwards.

Ramos did not expect that Tang Zheng would not be able to hit the football, so Ramos, who was guarding Mathieu, did not fully take off and was pushed forward by Mathieu who jumped high and hit the football.

The football changed direction and flew towards the lower right corner of the goal. Goalkeeper Casillas subconsciously made a save, but it took time for his body to sink...

※※※

"Ouch, ouch, ouch—"

Suddenly, the Barcelona fans at Camp Nou released their energy passionately, creating a roar as loud as a mountain and a tsunami.

Mathieu, who scored the goal, selflessly vented the pleasure of scoring, because Real Madrid can be said to be the guarantee of his goal account.

Mathieu has scored a total of seven goals since joining La Liga in the summer of 2009, three of which were scored against Real Madrid. Now he has scored against Real Madrid on behalf of Barcelona in the El Clasico. How can you not be excited?

The Barcelona players celebrated the goal excitedly, and Tang Zheng walked towards the referee Laos and complained that Pique and Busquets had committed an obvious foul during the aerial battle.

Immediately, the on-site director gave a close-up shot of Tang Zheng and the referee Laos - Tang Zheng was holding the deformed and torn jersey with his right hand and was saying something to the referee Laos.

Looking at the slow-motion replay on the broadcast screen, Central 5 commentator He Wei was very excited, and his tone was a little dissatisfied: "The movements of Busquets and Pique's hands were very obvious, especially Busquets in front of him, he even tore it apart. There is no doubt that Tang Zheng's shirt was opened! This is a foul! The goal should be disallowed!"

As soon as he finished speaking, He Wei had to shake his head and said: "What a pity! The referee Laos didn't notice this. Otherwise, with Tang Zheng's jumping ability and control of the landing point, how would Mathieu get the ball? "

Real Madrid captain Casillas and deputy Ramos also tried to persuade the referee Laos, but Laos insisted on his own judgment and believed that the physical contact between Tang Zheng, Pique and Busquets was within the normal scope.

Real Madrid players were very helpless about the referee's decision.

Not many people noticed that after celebrating the goal, Busquets intentionally or unintentionally raised his right index finger towards Tang Zheng as he walked back, and then said "trash" in a low voice.

Although the noise at Camp Nou was huge, Tang Zheng was able to understand what Busquets wanted to express based on his mouth movements.

However, Tang Zheng did not respond tit-for-tat on the spot, because he knew that the best way to slap him in the face was to ignore him and then hit him with a goal.

In the past few seasons, Tang Zheng started playing for Dortmund and went to Real Madrid. As long as he played in the game, he has not lost a game. I don't know where Busquets got the courage to challenge.

In order to fight back better, Tang Zheng, who was full of anger, held back his energy and thought about giving Busquets the most direct slap in the face in the next game!

Busquets looked at Tang Zheng who turned away and grinned. He thought this was a sign of Tang Zheng's lack of self-confidence. His mind suddenly opened up and he was thinking about whether to continue to provoke in the next game.

In Tang Zheng's resume, there are records of losing control of his emotions, even though they have been rare in recent seasons...

Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti has a habit of frowning, and with half his silver hair, he gives people a worried look.

Before the game, he thought that he would fall behind in the away game, but he did not expect to lose the ball in this way, because Real Madrid has an absolute advantage in height, which means Barcelona scored using Real Madrid's usual scoring method.

Of course, there is some suspicion of foul play in Mathieu's score, but this is a football game!

The game restarted, and Real Madrid, which had a kick-off advantage, did not rush to launch an offensive, but organized the offense step by step.

After passing the ball several times in a row, the football came to Tang Zheng's feet. From the corner of his eye, Tang Zheng saw a Barcelona player speeding up from the side. He subconsciously pulled the ball back with his right foot and made a standard ball-protecting action.

But Busquets did not stop his kick and kicked Tang Zheng's heel directly, and the referee Laos' whistle sounded.

"Stop pretending!"

Tan Zheng held his sore heel and felt like he was about to explode when he heard Busquets' verbal provocation. However, he had strong emotional control and did not get angry but smiled instead: "Grandson, yes! Just wait for me!!"
