Star Coach

Pedro's ball protection was not as stable as Iniesta's and Xavi's. Several players from West Ham suddenly attacked and the ball was intercepted immediately at his feet.

West Ham grabbed the ball, but Glen Johnson just knocked the ball forward to Bale.

Bell roared excitedly, opened his legs and was running into a Mercedes. He jumped in at high speed, faster than any player. Abidal followed him and ate grass.

West Ham's counterattack reached Barcelona's penalty area in a blink of an eye. There was wind at Bale's feet. Facing Puyol, he immediately knocked across the ball and moved to the center.

Under the care of Busquets, Suarez used his body to force his opponent, twist the ball, and walk down. The movement was simple and sharp, quite imaginative, and it really tore through Barcelona's defense. Fortunately, Mascherano moved just as fast. He stayed close to Suarez, not giving him any room to kick.

"No, it's behind him." Guardiola jumped on the sidelines, and the team's defense was easily torn apart. What the hell? The ball was stolen just now and couldn't even organize a counterattack. West Ham's players were too fast.

Suarez knocked his heel and the ball was sent to Lewandowski's feet. In Lewandowski's position, only Xavi was interfering with him.

Do you still need to watch it? He kicked off and shot directly. No need to negotiate, this is a good opportunity.

Barcelona could not get close to West Ham's penalty area with the ball, and Messi could not even receive the ball. On the other hand, West Ham's clean passes had already posed a huge threat to Barcelona's defense.

Whoosh!

The ball flew up very quickly, and the angle was not tricky, but more stable. Jiang Shan shook his head. Lewandowski was still pursuing a sense of security too much. If he had used his toes to shoot and quickly hit the corner, the goal would have been there.

Sure enough, Valdes flew to save the ball and lifted the ball over the crossbar, breaking into a cold sweat. West Ham's first wave of attacks immediately threatened. Barcelona stayed outside for a long time, soft and unable to get in.

Only in the 5th minute of the game, Guardiola realized that something was not going well and quickly changed his tactics. He had a plan before the game. He just laid out the arrangements before the game. It was very easy.

Guardiola decided to open from the wing first. West Ham's defense is solid in the middle, and there will definitely be vacancies on the wing.

In the Barcelona team, Alves has always been so stable that he can take off. After receiving the order, Barcelona's lineup began to move to the wing. Alves held the ball more and went straight through the half.

But the situation didn't seem quite right. Royce returned to defense very quickly, and Baynes was very bold and rushed directly to the half-court to intercept.

No matter how powerful Alves is, facing the encirclement and suppression of two people, he will never be able to break through all the time. He still chooses to pass the ball, but he is bolder and passes it directly to Messi's feet.

Four people appeared next to Messi in an instant. Hummels was lifted up, ready to intercept the ball at any time. Kroos was close to Messi. He was the main force on the defensive end, with Modric and Reus assisting him in defense.

breakthrough? There was no way out, so he had to continue to return the ball to Xavi.

Xavi is also stuck with Suarez, which is not easy. Guardiola's expression finally changed. West Ham's movements were very fast, the speed of passing and cutting and the tacit understanding of the players were not bad.

The most critical thing is that the players in their frontcourt are so fast that they are simply unstoppable.

No, Suarez grabbed the ball and kicked it, sending the ball directly to the wing. To Reus, Reus got on the rocket and flew towards Barcelona's backcourt.

Barcelona's counterattack force still failed to work, and Alves had to be forced into the half court with a heavy defensive task. Baynes was also very bold and went directly to the baseline to receive the pass.

Baines attracted the attention of the defensive players. Suarez and Lewandowski were both running. Everyone's steps were planned and they ran into position easily. The opportunity appeared again.

Suarez stretched the space and attracted the defense. Bell also appeared, and his lethality on the wing was equally terrifying.

Royce gave the ball to Baynes in front of him. Baynes kicked off and the ball flew high.

Barcelona's defense was not high enough, so Lewandowski pushed past the defenders and headed directly into the goal, shooting from close range.

Valdes had no choice. Lewandowski had no opponent in the air and could even take aim. He found a tricky angle and the ball went into the upper right corner of the goal to open the scoring.

Jiang Shan raised his arms, stood up and cheered, then sat down calmly. This goal tactic was similar to what he expected. The team had a 70% chance of scoring a goal.

Lewandowski's shooting skills are getting better and better, and his header bombing is also very threatening. After scoring, he hugged and celebrated with his teammates.

In the 13th minute, the score became 1:0, West Ham took the lead, and the Champions League champion Barcelona rarely fell behind.

West Ham scored and took the lead. Countless coaches at the scene were immediately excited, "It turns out that Barcelona is not invulnerable. They also have an embarrassing side when faced with quick counterattacks and quick counterattacks."

"Moreover, Jiangshan has made good use of the players' physical fitness. The physical fitness of Premier League players is indeed stronger than that of La Liga players." Ferguson nodded slightly, "It's a pity that Nani and Valencia have too obvious shortcomings, otherwise we would face Barcelona , and won’t be so passive.”

Guardiola looks ugly, is West Ham so difficult to deal with?

The scene of chopping melons and vegetables did not appear, and Messi was also restricted. So far in the game, he has no shooting opportunities, which is quite uncomfortable.

He didn't know how long it had been since the team had felt such pressure. What should he do? Guardiola couldn't think of a way to crack it for a while.

The game is still going on. Messi took the initiative to retreat and get more balls. Facing West Ham's defense, his breakthrough threat is also very big. With Iniesta and Messi on the field, no team can relax. Their breakthrough is simply impossible to defend.

Messi held the ball at the edge of the penalty area and cruised along Messi's corridor. Unfortunately, Hummels did not give him a chance and directly blocked his position. Glen Johnson confronted Messi, which was a depressing physical confrontation. Modric also came to help, and Messi had to return the ball to the wing.

Pedro rushed forward, this is an opportunity.

Bang!

Bale didn't know when he had been lurking near the penalty area, and directly blocked the ball out of the bottom line, giving a corner kick to Barcelona.

Tactical corner kick, Barcelona has no high point in the penalty area, and it is futile to open the penalty area.

But West Ham's small-scale pressing came again, and Pedro quickly passed the ball to the backcourt, Abidal.

Barcelona's pass was also very straightforward. Abidal did not stick to the ball, Xavi Busquets, then Alves, and then it was at Villa's feet.

Baines is not slow, blocking the position, Reus defends, Kroos also sticks to him, his movements are fast, and the rhythm is well controlled.

Steal the ball.

Villa's footwork is also not as good as Messi's. Baines grabbed the ball and kicked it at the first time, flying across the half court.

"Oh... God, Baines's pass is so accurate." Ferguson couldn't help but shout, "It's a pity that we didn't buy him."

Baines made a long pass directly across the half court, Suarez received it, facing Busquets, without stopping the ball, the ball hit the right, and Bale sprinted.

Bale attracted the defense, and Lewandowski shuttled smoothly to the wing. Bale continued to break through, cooperated with Suarez's running position, and cut inside.

There was a chance to shoot, but he didn't shoot, and passed the ball to the wing, Lewandowski's position.

Lewandowski paused, passed back, and gave it to Suarez. He kicked it, a clean shot. It penetrated Barcelona's defense again, 2:0.

An undisputed goal.

The first goal was achieved through high-speed cooperation in the frontcourt, and the second goal was achieved through a long pass from the backcourt. All kinds of tactics can lead to goals, so what about Barcelona?
