Chapter 366 Fang Jue Guardiola/First Intimate Contact (Part 1)

Lewandowski, who scored the goal, ran to the corner flag area with his arms wide open, followed by the excited Ibiza players!

Among them, Yordie Alba seemed even more excited than Lewandowski.

This Lamacia youth training player was determined to return to Barcelona. He was waiting for Barcelona's call, but until the transfer window closed, Barcelona did not intend to introduce Alba, which also made Alba a little disappointed.

Then, Alba finally nodded and agreed to complete the contract renewal with Ibiza.

Now, Alba is very excited to perform well and contribute assists in Barcelona.

"It looks like Jordi is very excited," said Sebalos.

"The deeper love is, the more hatred you have." Fang Jue said with a smile.

"It seems that Alba has no idea to go back to Barcelona to play football."

"This may not be necessary." Fang Jue shook his head. In his opinion, Alba was more like using this method to show Barcelona his abilities.

...

On November 2, 200, in this La Liga match between Ibiza and Barcelona, ​​Fang Jue and Guardiola's first meeting was destined to be a very classic memory in football.

Ibiza relied on Lewandowski's goal to take the lead in the score.

Guardiola frowned slightly, and the concealment of the ball made him feel a little unhappy.

However, Guardiola had to admit that Ibiza's goal was very beautiful, from Modric pressing to Mata's successful steal, and then Ibiza launched a fast counterattack. The entire counterattack process was very fast, and Barcelona's defense was completely exhausted.

Guardiola naturally saw where the team's problems appeared. Ibiza's attack started with the pass after Yaya Toure was cut off.

"Yaya Toure is a single midfielder, and it is very stressful." Tito Biranova said.

"I know." Guardiola nodded. How could he not know? In fact, when placing this lineup, Guardiola knew that Yaya Toure might become the focus of Ibiza's attack, but he still insisted on such tactics and lineups. This is because, "The important thing in this game is not defense!"

Tito Biranova glanced at Guardiola and understood.

This is to play completely against Ibiza and score a goal.

Yaya Toure has both offense and defense, and is now besieged by Ibiza. Although it may be difficult to defend on one end, the Ivorians should be able to make more contributions on the offensive end.

"The team must push it out and use offense to suppress Ibiza's offensive." Guardiola made a judgment.

However, he did not expect that Barcelona's second goal was lost so quickly.

...

In the 31st minute of the game, Modric sent a long pass. After Reus dribbled the ball into the penalty area, he made a move and tricked the Mexican veteran Marcos to make an action, but passed the football out. Lewandowski, who followed, withstood the ball with Puyol and half turned around and shot. After Valdes stretched his legs, Mata, who followed, grabbed Pique's shot in front of Pique and completed the supplementary shot. The football slammed into the net.

“gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool!”

"Juan Mata! Mata! Mata! Mata! 2-0! Ibiza leads Barcelona two goals." David Zamora shouted, "It's so crazy. Faced with Ibiza's offensive, Barcelona seems to have no choice. Their defense line has been torn apart again, and their offense still has no improvement. Messi, Henry, Etoo, Xavi, Iniesta, Barcelona's big-name stars are like sleepwalking."

Yes, Zamora is not wrong. Barcelona stars including Messi, Etoo and Henry have not been able to pose any threat to Ibiza's goal on the offensive end without the support of the midfield.

While Aubameyang was celebrating the goal with his players in Ibiza, the young Messi put his hands on his hips and looked at the grass beside him. Etoo spat on the ground in dissatisfaction. Not far away, Henry shook his head helplessly.

Barcelona's offensive trident was depressed and even felt depressed. When Xavi and Iniesta had to help Yayaturi defend, the Trident, which did not receive midfield support, had to retreat and get the ball frequently, trying to use personal skills to tear open Ibiza's defense. However, facing Ibiza's tight and tough defense, the effect was very average.

...

At the end of the first half, the score on the field was 2-0.

During the entire first half, Ibiza almost firmly controlled the game. Ibiza had eight shots in the first half and Barcelona had only three shots. Such data well reflected the situation in the first half.

This also shocked the reporters in the media table. This is Barcelona. Barcelona, ​​which has won five consecutive victories before, was beaten by Ibiza away without the strength to fight back?!

How is this possible?

"The problem lies in Yaya Toure." Dolores commented, "The Ivorians are the key target of Ibiza's attack, and Barcelona is very passive, which drives the defensive crisis of the whole team. The defense is not good, and then it will inevitably affect the offensive end."

"It's not just that," said David Zamora. "It's impossible for Guardiola to not see this problem, but he hasn't made adjustments, not just because it's just a matter of time in the first half. In my opinion, Guardiola is too confident about Barcelona's offensive ability. He believes Barcelona can respond with a strong offense, but obviously, this situation has not happened."

During the halftime break, Fang Jue praised the players.

However, after praising him, he did not forget to remind the players.

"The football game is ninety minutes, and the 2-0 first half cannot say anything, and it does not ensure that we win the game."

"Be careful of Barcelona's counterattack in the second half."

"Our tactics were very successful in the first half, and the second half continued." Fang Jue drew a circle on the tactical board with Yaya Toure's name written on it, and everyone understood what the coach meant.

Fang Jue paused and continued, "However, obviously, Guardiola also knows the problem with his team, so he should make adjustments in the second half of the game. Barcelona may have two changes-"

Fang Jue raised a finger and said, "Swap Yaya Toure and replace Busquets."

"Swap Iniesta, replace Busquets, or replace Keita."

"No matter which one it is, remember." Fang Jue knocked on the small blackboard, "Barcelona made adjustments, from a single back midfielder to a double back midfielder, and our tactics also changed-"

"Focus on defense of Xavi."

"Xavi is Barcelona's brain. If Xavi limits Xavi, Barcelona's offense will be paralyzed halfway!" Fang Jue looked at the players, "Remember, this is the key."

Barcelona was caught off guard by him in the first half. In this case, Guardiola would definitely make adjustments if he was not stubborn. In addition, as a super giant, these stars are all tried-and-true top stars. After fifteen minutes of halftime adjustment, they may have recovered.

In this case, Ibiza has to be careful of Barcelona's attack.

"In the second half of the game, if Barcelona changes the lineup, we will fight against them to defend and counterattack." Fang Jue knocked on the tactical board and drew a few arrows. "Two to zero, we have the qualifications to fight back. Stay calm. Even if a ball is recovered by Barcelona, ​​don't panic, they are more anxious than us."
