Super Marshal

"Only five minutes had passed since the goal was conceded, and Barcelona quickly equalized the score."

"It has been almost thirty minutes since the start of the two teams. They have played each other unreservedly and staged a wonderful offensive battle. We can even say unceremoniously that this is the season, no, it is One of the best starts to a game in the past few seasons."

"Now that both sides are back on the same starting line, we will see how the two teams play next."

…

"Mascherano pressed Pedro up front, OK, successfully intercepted the ball and quickly passed it to the midfield."

"Man City attack again, look at this one."

"It was still passed to the left. Cristiano Ronaldo and Benzema played a one-two against the wall. Cristiano Ronaldo directly kicked off and volleyed, and the ball went in!!!!"

"Wait a minute, the referee blew his whistle to signal that the Portuguese was offside."

"Looking at the slow-motion replay, it was indeed an offside."

"When Benzema passed the ball, Cristiano Ronaldo was indeed in an offside position, about half a body over. This is indeed a pity, but in any case, Manchester City completed a beautiful attack."

…

"Barcelona was obviously not to be outdone and quickly responded with a counterattack."

"Messi took the ball, ran into the middle and passed it to Xavi."

"Harvey, just hit the door!"

"Oh my God, Xavi's shot went just over the bar."

"This time the goal was very sudden, and Barcelona still chose to attack from both wings."

"Manchester City's three-back play, and Barcelona's defense on both wings is indeed a problem."

…

"Manchester City attacked the frontcourt, Barcelona intercepted the ball in the midfield and launched a counterattack."

"Iniesta passed the ball to the left."

"Pedro received the ball on the left side of the penalty area, facing Mascherano, and passed the ball low to the center."

"Ibrahimovic stepped in from behind and grabbed some points in front of the goal..."

"Petr Cech!!"

"At the critical moment, Petr Cech flew and saved the ball."

"It was definitely a crucial save, but the ball didn't fly far and landed on the outside of the penalty area."

"Xavi grabbed the spot at the top of the penalty area and hit the goal with a volley!"

"Oops, I didn't hit the right spot, the ball bounced off the ground and hit Javi Martinez."

"The ball is still in Manchester City's penalty area, look at this time..."

"Messi..."

“The ball went in!!!!”

"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!"

"In the 37th minute, Messi scored his second goal of the game with a volley from the right side of the penalty spot, scoring twice!"

"It was a great field goal."

"Messi's shot gave Cech almost no time to react. The angle of his shot was very tricky, almost grazing the right post and entering the net. Cech was beyond his reach."

"Barcelona succeeded in taking the lead in the 37th minute."

"Manchester City still had some problems on the wing. Barcelona quickly launched a counterattack after stealing the ball. Pedro made a pass from the left. Cech's save was very crucial. Then Xavi's long shot from outside the penalty area hit the target. Javi Martinez's body then rebounded to Messi, and the Argentine superstar did not waste the opportunity and calmly volleyed the ball."

"Thirty-seven minutes from the start of the game, the two teams have been fighting fiercely. The game is very exciting."

"But now City have to deal with being behind."

"The past half hour can be said to be wonderful. It completely broke many people's traditional impression of the unknown game in the competition. In this final, both teams played very unrestrainedly and without reservation."

…

"The game starts again."

"We saw that Manchester City quickly passed the ball back after the kick-off, but the offensive players in the frontcourt were rushing forward quickly, obviously to strengthen the attack."

"Xavi Alonso made a long pass from the backcourt, and Benzema grabbed the first shot and hit it to the left."

"Cristiano Ronaldo stopped the ball with his chest, faced Alves, cut inside, and kicked off!"

"Oh my god, that kick was so powerful."

"Valdes flew to block the ball, and Puyol made a huge clearance."

"But the ball didn't fly far, and Manchester City reorganized a wave of offense."

"Modric, pass to Kaka, and then pass to Benzema in the penalty area."

"Pique blocked the ball and it fell to the left side of the penalty area."

"David Silva got the ball, passed it into the penalty area, and Cristiano Ronaldo..."

"Good opportunity, the Portuguese kicked the goal..."

"The ball hit Pique, but Manchester City still has a chance. Kaka hits again in the penalty area!"

"The ball went in!!!"

"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!"

"With less than two minutes left after Barcelona scored, Manchester City successfully equalized the score!"

"Two to two, both sides are back on the same starting line again."

"The first half of the game was ups and downs and exciting. This is definitely the most exciting first half in the past ten years."

"Both teams played unreservedly and attacked like crazy. The pace of the game was also very fast, which was dizzying."

"This time it was Manchester City's continuous attack, constantly getting opportunities to kick at the front of the penalty area. In the end, it was Kaka who seized the opportunity at the critical moment and made the final decision, sending the ball into the bottom of the net."

"The first half was really exciting."

"Two teams at the highest level in world football gave us a wonderful offensive battle."

…

"Barcelona serves."

"There are still a few minutes left before the end of the first half, but the two teams still have not given up and are still trying to attack."

"Manchester City got a corner kick."

"Modric took a corner kick, Kompany flew the header, and David Silva directly kicked the goal..."

"Oops, the ball missed a little."

…

"Ibrahimovic grabbed the spot and held two players on his back."

"The physical quality of the Swedish center is unbelievable, let's see how he handles it this time."

"Iniesta came up to receive the ball and passed it. Ibrahimovic turned around and hit the goal directly!"

"Cech jumped in and saved the ball, saving Barcelona a chance to shoot."

"The referee also blew the whistle to end the first half at this time."

"Two to two, the two sides shook hands and made a draw in the first half."

"Judging from the performance in the first half, both teams played very well."

"The ball possession rate is 48 to 52, and Barcelona is slightly better, but the number of shots is 16 to 12. Manchester City has the advantage. The two sides can be said to be evenly matched."

"This game can be said to be wonderful. Both teams played at the highest level."

"This is the UEFA Champions League final that all our fans are looking forward to!"

The first half ended with a score of 2-2, but back in the locker room, the mood of the Manchester City players was not low at all.

This kind of game makes people more excited the more they play, and the easier it is to get out of shape.

Even after walking back to the locker room, everyone's minds were still extremely excited.

Gao Han opened the door to the locker room and walked in with a smile on his face, which made all the players feel happy and shouted, "Boss."

"I am proud of your performance in the first half. I am very satisfied with your ability to withstand the pressure in the final period and equalize the score. The score of 2-2 also makes me full of confidence. The game in the second half will belong entirely to us."

Gao Han's confident words made every player in the locker room nod in unison.

In fact, this offensive battle did not exceed Gao Han's expectations before the game.

The duel between the two teams in the first half was not just a duel of offensive systems, but a battle between restraint and counter-restraint, pressure and counter-pressure and many other comprehensive factors.

But what really determines the outcome of the game is not the first half, but the second half.

"As I said before the game, in the first half we played more on the left and center, but in the second half we have to focus on the opponent's left, which is Abidal's side, Sanchez."

As Gao Han called his name, the Chilean winger stood up from his seat, nodded eagerly and said: "Boss, I can't wait for a long time." His mission in the first half was more of pulling and feinting, which was not satisfying at all. .

Especially when he saw his teammates playing so excitedly, he couldn't hold it back any longer.

"Abidal is a tough opponent. He should have consumed a lot of energy in the first half. In the second half, we have to focus on attacking this side and eat Barcelona in one go. But you must pay attention and we must have sportsmanship."

Gao Han had a warning in his last words.

Sanchez understood what the coach meant and nodded heavily in agreement.

Everyone is full of admiration for Abidal. After all, he was able to come back quickly in such a short period of time after undergoing liver tumor surgery a few months ago. This alone is worthy of admiration.

"The right wing is working hard, but the center and left wing must also keep up. Just like what I tell you on weekdays, as long as we go hand in hand and launch an attack, no team in the world can stop our offense. "

After hearing Gao Han's words, all the Manchester City players became energetic and confident.

Ever since they came to play under Gao Han, the head coach has never broken his promise.

…………

…………

Just like the general excitement among the Manchester City players, the Barcelona players were all out of breath after returning to the locker room, but everyone looked excited, obviously stimulated by the first half of the game.

But as soon as Guardiola entered the door, his first concern was Abidal.

"How's it going? Is it okay?" Guardiola asked, looking at Abidal who was out of breath.

The offensive and defensive rhythm of such a game is too fast, and the physical consumption is more serious than ordinary games. After all, Barcelona usually controls the ball. As a defender, Abidal does not need to run so much, even when facing Real Madrid. The same goes for the Copa del Rey final.

But this game is different. Manchester City and Barcelona are evenly matched in terms of possession of the ball. The two teams compete aggressively, which consumes a lot of players and requires extremely high standards.

On Abidal's dark face, his eyes were slightly red, but he kept nodding, "Don't worry, I have no problem."

Guardiola was hesitant and thought of Brazilian left back Adriano, but he was still uneasy.

With Adriano's ability, there is no way he can guard Sanchez.

"Everyone did a good job in the first half." Guardiola turned to face the crowd.

"But what I want to remind everyone is that the game has just begun. In the first half, Manchester City obviously did not fully exert their strength, especially on their right."

Abidal was present, Guardiola didn't say it clearly, but everyone understood what he meant.

Before the game, almost everyone said that Barcelona's left wing was a loophole. Guardiola was also fully prepared on this side. Unexpectedly, Gao Han did not make a fuss on this side at all, but attacked Barcelona's right wing and Central and scored two goals.

Virtual reality, this is the charm of football tactics.

"In the second half, Manchester City will definitely attack with all their strength, and we will never give in even a step." Guardiola said loudly.

His determination was felt by everyone present, including Messi.

The Argentinian superstar's eyes showed strong fighting spirit, and he had already scored twice.

"Cristiano, what about you?"
