Super Marshal

"hey-hey!"

Zidane walked to the sidelines and shouted loudly at the players on the court, constantly signaling them to stay steady.

Stabilizing our position is undoubtedly Chinatown’s top priority right now.

This is Camp Nou, the home ground of Barcelona. Even if Barcelona won the visiting team's draw, their advantage is still not small. If Chinatown blindly counterattacks and messes up its position, it will be equivalent to giving Barcelona a chance.

After taking the lead, Barcelona played more calmly, patiently turning back and passing the ball, trying to stretch Chinatown's defense as far as possible. However, after stretching Chinatown's defense, Barcelona failed to effectively take advantage of its central advantage. .

The reason is that the three midfielders composed of Pogba, Kante and De Bruyne suppressed Iniesta and Rakitic. Even the goal just conceded, if Messi hadn't taken the initiative to retreat. If you get the ball within 30 meters of your own side and advance with the ball, it will be difficult for Barcelona to pass it to the frontcourt.

This is Chinatown’s strength and a key factor that can be exploited.

Gao Han in the stands saw this, and Zidane in the stadium also understood the key.

Slowly, after a few minutes of adjustment, Chinatown began to get rid of the panic after conceding the goal, and gradually stabilized its position.

This group of players in the team are no longer immature. All of them have experienced hundreds of battles and are also members of the Champions League champions. The national players of various countries will no longer be disrupted by conceding a goal.

After eight minutes, Chinatown began to play a wave of offensive, focusing on the left wing.

The cooperation between Hazard and Pogba on the left is very advantageous, causing huge trouble for Alves' side, forcing Barcelona's defensive focus to tilt to its right.

In the tenth minute, Pogba took the ball in the frontcourt and cooperated with Hazard before passing it back to Alex Sandro who came in behind.

The Brazilian left-back passed the ball to the back of the penalty area without thinking. Griezmann caught a gap and inserted it diagonally into the back of the penalty area.

Seeing that the French winger was about to succeed, Bravo abandoned the goal at the critical moment. Regardless of his own safety, he rushed to save the ball before Griezmann raised his foot to shoot, and hit the ball with one hand.

Fortunately, Griezmann stopped his kick in time, otherwise, the kick hit Bravo in the face, and blood would have been splashed on the spot.

But soon, Chinatown launched another attack, again from the left.

Pogba took the ball from the outside of the penalty area, faced Barcelona's defender, and tried to pass the ball to Hazard, but the Belgian immediately passed the ball back, and Pogba moved to the right with his big foot.

Griezmann stopped the ball and passed it back to Montoya, who intervened in the attack. The latter crossed to the front of the penalty area to find De Bruyne. The Belgian found a gap in the crowd and accurately delivered the ball. Later point.

Hazard understood and chased after him, but just when he was about to succeed, Otamendi took the lead and poked the ball out of the baseline for a corner kick.

Chinatown's continuous attacks tore apart Barcelona's defense, with Pogba and De Bruyne playing key roles in both ribs, which basically reflected Zidane's tactical thinking.

In the 14th minute, after Pogba formed a cooperation with Hazard on the left side, he got the ball in the penalty area. After getting rid of Otamendi, he dribbled the ball from the baseline towards the goal and then passed the ball backwards for a penalty kick. Click on the right side and find De Bruyne who cleverly intervened.

The Belgian's kick failed to suppress the ball and went slightly higher.

After stabilizing their position, although Chinatown did not have an advantage in ball possession data, it clearly suppressed Barcelona's midfield and even focused on Messi. This made Barcelona's midfield and frontcourt basically out of touch. Even though they have possession of the ball, it is difficult to pose a threat. The three players in the frontcourt are also somewhat scattered and work on their own.

Barcelona has the ball but has difficulty creating offensive threats, while Chinatown frequently creates crises on the offensive end.

Especially in the 21st minute, Chinatown played the most threatening attack in the game.

Alex Sandro inserted into the frontcourt, received Pogba's pass, and passed it directly to Hazard on the left side of the penalty area.

Facing Alves, the Belgian made a series of fake moves to deflect the opponent's cross.

In the penalty area, Firmino got ahead of Otamendi and headed the ball with his back to the goal.

The ball fell towards the goal at an extremely fast speed. Goalkeeper Bravo was also frightened and flew to make a save. However, the ball was urgent and tricky, and the goalkeeper was basically powerless.

But at the critical moment, the crossbar saved Barcelona.

Only a bang was heard at the scene, the ball bounced back into the penalty area, and Barcelona escaped.

But before everyone in Barcelona had time to rejoice, Griezmann quickly crossed into the penalty area, got ahead of everyone, and without thinking about where the ball landed, shot directly.

There was another bang, and the ball hit the right post and bounced off the baseline.

Firmino and Griezmann both covered their faces hard, obviously extremely depressed.

Two such threatening shots, one on the crossbar and one on the post, what else could they say?

The sighs of relief from Barcelona fans could clearly be felt at the scene.

Yes, they should be grateful.

Crossbar and post saved Barcelona.

…………

…………

"What a bad luck!" Gao Han shook his head.

Luck is also a very important factor in football matches.

Just like just now, two consecutive shots were threatening, and goalkeeper Bravo basically raised his hands in surrender. The result was a crossbar and a post. It was really a bit dumbfounding. In addition to crying that the goddess of luck did not favor her, what else can I say? What?

In fact, Chinatown team Barcelona's defense is very successful. It is basically difficult for Messi and Suarez in the frontcourt to get the ball. Rakitic and Iniesta can only go to two wings. Pass the ball.

Alves is indeed old and does not have the courage he once had, and Iniesta's running is obviously not as active as before.

In Barcelona during the heyday of Guardiola's coaching, the smooth passing and receiving coordination and physical running are basically impossible to reproduce again, so Rakitic's position in Barcelona will become more and more important, replacing Harvey's momentum is already clear.

Looking back at Chinatown, youth is the biggest asset. Pogba and De Bruyne are very active in running.

Judging from the real-time data of the game, the running data of Pogba and De Bruyne are close to the sum of Rakitic, Iniesta and Busquets. Kante can allocate more energy to take care of them. Messi actively retreats.

Active movement is very important for Barcelona, ​​and the simplest one is the receiving point of the ball.

In the past, when Iniesta got the ball, there were teammates everywhere to support him, but now when he gets the ball, he can easily fall into the opponent's double-team. This is of course limited by the opponent's defensive formation, but it is also mainly due to Barcelona's own declining running ability. factor.

This situation will become more and more obvious as Barcelona's player structure ages.

Chinatown will continue to mature and reach its peak.

"Take your time, don't be anxious, there will definitely be a chance." Gao Han murmured to himself.

…………

…………

The game basically continued the situation after the opening, the only difference was the score.

Barcelona took the lead thanks to Messi's goal.

However, Barcelona, ​​which had the advantage of possessing the ball, was never able to turn its advantage into an offensive threat. Even in the first half hour of the first half, Barcelona did not have many decent offensive opportunities except for that shot.

Several threats to the Chinatown goal were resolved by De Gea without any danger.

On the contrary, Chinatown continued to threaten and frequently created crises in front of Barcelona's goal.

When the game progressed to the 34th minute, De Bruyne received a pass from Kante on the right rib, quickly dribbled the ball forward along the right side, reached Barcelona's 30-meter zone, and directly kicked the ball. , the long pass was transferred to the left.

Alex Sandro used his chest to stop the ball forward, and before the defender could get close, he passed the ball to Hazard, while he sprinted from behind Hazard towards the baseline.

The Belgian people understood and passed the ball to the baseline. Alex Sandro caught up with the ball and directly passed the ball low to Pogba. However, at the critical moment, Otamendi took the lead and destroyed the ball. The bottom line was reached and almost resulted in an own goal.

The entire Camp Nou stadium once again echoed with exclamations.

The offensive in Chinatown is getting more and more urgent.

Everyone began to have a hunch that if this continued, Barcelona would be equalized sooner or later.

Griezmann stood in the corner kick area, and the high points of Chinatown rushed into Barcelona's penalty area.

When the corner kick was taken, there was chaos in the penalty area, and De Vrij squeezed out a channel in the middle of the crowd and headed near the penalty spot, but the ball hit Pique and bounced out.

Barcelona wanted to clear the ball immediately, but outside the penalty area, De Bruyne caught up with the ball first and suddenly distributed the ball to the right. Montoya stepped in and made another pass.

At this time, De Vrij and Varane, who were still in the Barcelona penalty area, transformed into center forwards and quickly headed towards the goal.

The two high school defenders are quite intimidating in the penalty area, and Montoya's cross is aimed at them.

I only saw the forward center back Varane suppressing Otamendi with his body. Facing Montoya's pass, he shook his head at the goal from close range. The ball fell to the ground. After rebounding, it hit the goal. Into the Barcelona goal.

Faced with the sudden shot, goalkeeper Bravo could not react in time and could only watch the ball go into the net.

One to one!

Varane jumped high in the penalty area, clenched his hands and shouted.

All the Chinatown players rushed forward and surrounded him.

After half an hour, they were behind for half an hour, and now they finally equalized the score.

The entire Camp Nou stadium rang with cheers from Chinatown fans, all of whom were crazy about the players' outstanding performance.

Although the team was lagging behind in the previous half hour, no matter from any aspect, they did not feel weak or panicked, but gave people a very stable confidence.

…

"One to one, Chinatown successfully equalized the score."

"If Barcelona's goal just now did not bring panic to Chinatown, then the goal conceded this time will definitely seriously affect Barcelona, ​​because although they had the ball control advantage throughout the first half, they always Failed to threaten the Chinatown goal."

"Before, there was still a one-goal lead, but now, after Chinatown has tied, the situation will start to become more unfavorable for Barcelona. Luis Enrique should take effective measures as soon as possible to stop Barcelona's decline."

"Zidane seemed very excited. He once said that Varane would be the world's top central defender, and the French compatriot also repaid Zidane's treatment of him with a header in this crucial final. Trust and support.”

"One to one, both sides are back on the same starting line."

…

But Gao Han, who was sitting in the stands, had an extremely strong feeling.

In this game, Chinatown is safe!
