Chapter 250 The football world has officially entered the Romance of the Three Kingdoms from the era of the peerless two heroes!
“goal!!!”
"It's unbelievable, I can't believe that Manchester City was the first to score at Camp Nou!"
"Lin, this 18-year-old young player made his first appearance in Camp Nou, broke through the goal of his old club. He stood up again when the team was in danger and scored a gold with a long-distance raid.
A goal like that!”
"You can always trust Lin!"
"Barcelona is in danger. If the game ends with this score, it will be very unfavorable for their promotion!"
"Even if they defeated Manchester City in the end, giving Manchester City a away goal at home is very unfavorable for Barcelona's promotion situation!"
The commentators from major TV stations all fell into madness when Lin Quan scored this goal.
There are very few people optimistic about Manchester City before the game. Judging from the situation in the first thirty minutes, the game trend is in line with everyone's expectations.
The powerful Barcelona has the advantage, Manchester City is shaking under Barcelona's fierce attack, and Barcelona's victory seems to be just a matter of time.
However, Lin Quan's goal shattered all this!
No matter how high the ball possession rate is, what's the use of no matter how many shots are?
As long as you can't score the goal, these advantages cannot be converted into victory.
After all, the football game is a game that can score more goals. Now, Manchester City has scored a goal, but Barcelona's account is still a zero egg!
Therefore, many experts began to doubt their judgments.
Does Barcelona really have an advantage?
On the sidelines, Barcelona's coach Martino is also thinking about this issue.
After coaching Barcelona, he had already discovered that Guardiola's pass-by tactics remained are not as useful as before.
Passing and controlling football requires a high level of strength for the team's lineup. Players on the court need to have strong ability to shoot balls and have sufficient physical fitness to allow them to perform high-pressing tactics in the frontcourt.
Controlling the ball at your own feet and replacing defense with offense is the essence of Guardiola's passing and control tactics.
This tactic was a great success a few years ago. In addition to the lack of understanding of this tactic, it is also related to Barcelona's lineup at that time.
The Barcelona lineup during Guardiola's period was obviously younger. When he led the team to win the Champions League, Messi was only in his early 20s, Xavi was less than 30 years old, and Berkets and others were also in the 23-26-year-old Gold
Within age.
At that time, they had sufficient physical fitness to implement the tactic of high-pressing frontcourt pressing. When other teams faced Barcelona, they either could not get the ball at all and could only defend passively.
Either they finally got the ball, but because they did not have a ball route, they quickly snatched the ball away by Barcelona's high-level pressing tactics, and then they fell into a situation where they could not get the ball and were passively beaten.
But now, it is difficult for Barcelona to implement this tactic of high-pressing.
The players are too old and their running ability is not as good as they were back then. In addition, inspired by Mourinho, other teams have developed methods to pass and control tactics against them - exchange space for time!
Football matches are nothing more than a game of time and space!
Barcelona's pass control uses the space to the extreme. When football is at Barcelona's feet, they will patiently turn their feet down, use frequent shifts, sideways and midfielders to attack, etc. to pull the opponent's defensive formation, looking for
Breakthrough.
Once the opponent makes a mistake, Barcelona's thunder strike will come.
However, because they organize attacks for a long time, their efficiency in using time naturally becomes very low.
Mourinho did the opposite, giving up the competition for space, greatly improving the efficiency of time.
His team does not pursue ball possession rate, and the empty ball rights are left to you. I will seize your chances of offensive mistakes.
Once the ball rights change and it is his team's turn to launch an attack, he will pursue the most extreme and most efficient counterattack. Players do not need to have as complicated running and passing and cutting as Barcelona. After getting the ball, they will pass it straight forward.
The forward in front ran forward desperately.
With just two or three passes, the football has already come from his own penalty area to the opponent's penalty area.
Real Madrid in Mourinho's era had the ability to complete an attack in ten seconds or less.
Because the time is too short, most of the opponent's players don't have time to retreat, so their counterattack efficiency is very high. As long as the ball is successfully passed to the forward's feet, it is very likely to be converted into a goal.
And Manchester City's attack is simply a replica of the Real Madrid team.
It is precisely because of this that Martino's heart began to shake.
Guardiola's Dream Three Dynasty did not gain any advantage when he fought with Mourinho in the later period.
Barcelona, whom he took over, is two years older than that time. Can they defeat the opponent in the face of Manchester City's tactics?
It was not just Martino who had such an idea. After seeing Lin Quan scored, many players in Barcelona felt a sense of frustration.
They worked hard to control the ball for 30 minutes and completed 6 shots, but failed to get a single shot.
But the opponent only launched a counterattack and scored a goal!
The contrast is too strong, which inevitably leads to some frustration in Barcelona players.
Neymar, who only joined Barcelona last summer and has not experienced his peak period, even began to doubt whether the pass-by tactics are really right?
Messi stood on the court, looking at Lin Quan who was surrounded by his teammates to celebrate with his hands on his hips.
He was not surprised by Lin Quanneng's goal.
What really made him care about was why the other party knew so well about his football style and could predict his movements.
Is it fooled?
Or is his understanding of himself really reaching this level of nuance?
Messi plans to give it another try!
After the game started again, Messi took the initiative to ask for the ball.
The teammates trusted Messi's ability very much and immediately passed the ball to him when he saw him taking the initiative to ask for it.
Unexpectedly, Lin Quan appeared in front of him again.
Messi was not careless this time. Although the opponent was not a special defensive player, judging from his last defense, Lin Quan's defensive ability was not bad.
He made a fake move, shifting his center of gravity to the right, while he was immersed in his shoulders to prepare for a breakthrough.
Seeing Messi's actions, Lin Quan immediately became alert.
Here comes!
The dilemma of defensive players when facing Messi!
Ignoring his fake moves, he will turn the fake moves into real and then break through. Following his fake moves, he will adjust it at a faster speed and then pass it.
Anyway, no matter how you choose, it seems to be wrong!
Lin Quan often uses this move when one-on-one, and the effect is very good, and the success rate is extremely high when one-on-one.
Knowing the power of this move does not mean that Lin Quan can defend it!
Although he knows Messi's playing football style and even habits very well, he is not Messi after all, and he doesn't know what choice the other party will make.
When he uses this method to make the final decision based on the choice of the defensive player.
Seeing that Lin Quan did not make a choice, Messi immediately completed the breakthrough from his right.
Lin Quan turned around and slowed down, and it was too late to chase him.
When Cross saw Lin Quan had been passed, he immediately came up to intercept him.
Messi passed the ball to Neymar, who went down the bottom along the wing.
Manchester City's full-back rushed up, but Messi didn't know when he came to the wing. He received a pass from Neymar and immediately cut inward and killed towards Manchester City's penalty area.
Kompany immediately stepped forward to intercept and block, not giving Messi room to shoot or break through.
Messi passed the ball out again, and Iniesta had already stepped forward to the front of the penalty area at some point.
After receiving Messi's pass, he passed the ball to the left of the penalty area. There was no one here at the moment, but Xiaobai knew that Messi would definitely run here.
Sure enough, Messi did not see how Iniesta handled the ball after passing the ball, and he chose to believe in the tacit understanding between his teammates and him.
If Messi runs directly into the open space on the left side of the penalty area, then Manchester City's defender may be more alert.
But Messi is very smart. He took a step back after passing the ball and performed a reverse run.
This confused Manchester City's defenders, preventing them from following Messi when he ran back, giving Messi room to catch the ball!
For a player like Messi, giving him such space is definitely a fatal mistake!
People arrive, ball arrives!
Messi had just run to the open position on the left, and Xiaobai's pass came as scheduled.
The rest was very simple. Messi stopped the ball with his chest and then shot it into Manchester City's goal.
Manchester City defenders raised their hands to signal, believing that this was an offside goal.
