Chapter 77 Jedi Counterattack
In the lounge, the players all lowered their heads and didn't dare to breathe. They all knew Aragones' temper. It's no wonder the coach didn't lose his temper in such a rout in the first half!
There was a sound of opening the door, and then a familiar sound of footsteps came, and the players knew who was coming without looking up.

They were waiting for the roar of the old man, but after waiting for almost a minute, the expected storm did not come, but a breeze blew:
"Everyone played well in the first half."

The team members raised their heads in surprise. Is this what Aragones said?In Spanish football, Aragones' violent temper is well known, and some people even compare him with Sir Alex Ferguson in the Premier League. Facing the situation where he fell behind by three goals in the first half, he would actually say "playing well." "?
For a moment, almost everyone thought they had heard it wrong.

They heard it right, and Aragones went on to say: "This situation occurred in the first half, and the main responsibility lies with me. I miscalculated the situation, and I also made improper use of personnel."

"Pei Wei, your specialty is offense, defense is not something you have to do, but I forced you to defend, which didn't help but caused us to misfire on offense. This has nothing to do with your performance, you guys Be tenacious and I'm so proud of you."

The players are excited, indeed, what they need now is encouragement, not blame.

Nadal made a statement on behalf of the players: "Coach, please rest assured, we will definitely play our momentum in the second half, and will not let the opponent underestimate us again!"

Aragones nodded: "Very well, you are worthy of Mallorca's fighters, but to be honest, at the Nou Camp, I don't think we have any hope of winning, but we can't continue to be depressed, Pei Wei , In the second half, you don’t care about defense, you attack and score goals for me! Even if we lose, we will lose vigorously!"

"Yes!" Pei Wei said loudly.

"Okay, the second half is about to begin, let's go, my warriors!"

The players ran out in a swarm. Before going out, Aragones grabbed Palovic and said something in his ear:
"Remember, you are now our main defensive midfielder on the field, and the task of dealing with Rivaldo is entrusted to you. Although he is the world's footballer, I believe in your ability, and I also believe that you will not let me down. of!"

The second half started, neither side made substitutions, they were all the same players from the first half.

"He didn't make a substitution?" Rexach frowned: "Could it be that this old guy has given up on this game?"

He didn't have time to think about it, because the game had already started.

The Mallorca team kicked off, they didn't seem to be eager to attack, but back and forth in the backcourt.

The Barcelona players saw that the opponent was so unwilling to make progress, and they were also happy to save their energy-the league had just started, and they didn't waste their energy in order to increase the goal difference when they were sure to win.

Rivaldo, who was running in the midfield, seemed to smell a trace of uneasiness. He looked around, and sure enough, as the Mallorca team stepped back unhurriedly, their frontcourt players had slowly pressed up. .

"Not good..." Just as Rivaldo was about to remind his teammates, the Mallorca team moved!

Nadal got the ball in the backcourt and pointed his right hand to the sky.Luke suddenly started running into the penalty area, and then Nadal made a big long pass!

Luke, who had already reached the opponent's penalty area, leaped high, won the ball over Anderson's head, and then ferried it to Eto'o behind him!
Things happened suddenly, Barcelona's players were a little distracted for a while, and Eto'o got the ball comfortably in front of the penalty area.

Although De Boer reacted slowly, he still quickly met Eto'o, ready to break his ball.

Eto'o ignored him, but turned around and passed the ball back.

A Mallorca player in a white jersey with a big number 18 on the back is running towards the ball!
Keku is desperately chasing back, but speed is not what he is good at, so he can only watch helplessly as the distance between Pei Wei and him grows farther and farther.

Pei Wei rushed to the ball, and no one was guarding him!

"Come on!" Xiao Jun couldn't help shouting from the sidelines, startling the photographer next to him, but he didn't realize it.

The goalkeeper of Barcelona, ​​the Argentine Bonano, bent slightly. After Roa withdrew from the national team because of his belief, he became the well-deserved No. 1 goalkeeper, and his wonderful performance is absolutely worthy of his back The number [-] number!
He was very leisurely in the first half today, and the Mallorca team almost didn't have a decent attack, but as an excellent goalkeeper, his spirit is still very concentrated.

"Long shot?" He thought to himself, a shot from this distance shouldn't pose any threat to him.

Pei Wei stepped heavily on the side of the ball with his right foot, raised his left foot high, and suddenly drew to the lower part of the football. The moment he touched the ball, his calf suddenly pulled upwards, and the impacted ball rushed quickly. Up to the sky!
Bonano made a judgment in an instant: "The speed is really fast, but unfortunately it is too high. The ball will definitely be higher than the crossbar."

But Rivaldo, who saw his shooting action behind Pei Wei, didn't think so: "No, this ball is..."

"Ah!" The surprised voice of more than 8 people sounded, and then there was a "beep--" whistle on the court, and then there was a burst of boiling on Mallorca's bench...

Bonanno kept the same posture as when Pei Wei shot just now, but his head turned around, staring blankly at the football bouncing in the net!
"It's a strong backspin! His foot spins upwards when he hits the ball! It's interesting that this little guy can shoot such a shot!" thought Rivaldo.

The shot that was obviously going to be higher than the crossbar suddenly fell in front of the goal, and got into the net between the crossbar and the post!

In the 5th minute of the second half, the Mallorca team relied on Pei Wei's long-range shot to recover the score by one point!
After being quiet for a while, the Barcelona fans began to cheer more enthusiastically. What is a goal? Aren't we still leading by two goals?

After Mallorca scored, Rexach just frowned slightly, but did not move.

The opponent scored the goal very beautifully. They first used the backcourt to make the players of the team relax, and then launched an attack suddenly. The shot was completed after only three passes.

But there is no need for him to panic. The strength of the Mallorca team is far from that of Barcelona's opponents. The results of the first half have already demonstrated this point.

The opponent's goal just made Barcelona's players more focused on the field.

Sure enough, although the Mallorca team pulled back a goal, it made the Barcelona players angry.

In just 10 minutes after the goal, Barcelona created no fewer than five shots to push Mallorca to the half-time again, only to be missed by Roa's outstanding performance.

Unlike the first half, the two forwards of the Mallorca team did not retreat, but took advantage of the opportunity near the center circle.

Rivaldo gestured to Harvey who was holding the ball on the wing. Harvey nodded knowingly and quickly passed the ball to his feet.

Just when Rivaldo was about to catch the ball, Palovich suddenly rushed over from the side and intercepted the ball in advance!

Rivaldo looked at him in surprise, when did he come up?

Palovich did not pause, but passed the ball to Pei Wei in front.

Pei Wei said in his heart, "Okay!" Now is the time for Barcelona to switch from offense to defense, and it is also the time when the defense is weakest!
Pei Wei took the ball and turned around, the movement was done in one go.

As soon as he turned around, a Barcelona player had already met him, it was the Dutchman Cocu.

Pei Wei glanced ahead. Eto'o and Luke had been stared at by Barcelona's two central defenders respectively. If he wanted to pass the ball to them, he had to break through the opponent in front of him.

He knows the weight of the opponent in front of him, Philip Cocu, born in 1970, is now over 30 years old, a frequent visitor to the Dutch national team and the current captain of the Dutch team.

Pei Wei knew that it would be difficult to think about him relying on his own skills. The one-on-one match against Nadal at that time showed this point, but the opponent is a 30-year-old veteran, so his speed should play a big role.

Pei Wei did not stick the ball, but poked the ball forward while catching the ball, and then accelerated past Cocu.

There were boos everywhere on the court, and Pei Wei found out that although Cocu passed by, the ball stayed where it was.

It turned out that Cocu swung his calf quickly when the ball was about to pass through his crotch, and the castration of the ball stopped. Then he stepped on the ball and drove towards the frontcourt with his big foot.

Kluivert jumped high and headed the goal!

Luo A flew to save, but it was still a little short. Fortunately, the ball flew out of the baseline against the post.

Roa took the goal kick and he didn't have time to panic because 10 minutes into the second half and they were still two goals behind.

The ball was once again sent to Pei Wei by Ibagaza, because he had been firmly marked by Puyol, the new leader of Barcelona's defense, and he had no chance to break through. Now he can only rely on Pei Wei.

When Pei Wei saw the ball passing, he took a step back and prepared to catch it.

But Keku also squeezed over and pressed Pei Wei tightly with his body. Pei Wei wanted to push him away, but although Keku was a little shorter than Pei Wei in height, his body was much stronger and he was not Squeezed by Pei Wei, he stretched out his legs when the ball flew over, and blocked the ball to his teammate Harvey.

Pei Wei shook his head regretfully, and ran towards Hui. He knew that it would not be easy for him to get rid of this opponent, but he didn't expect it to be so difficult.

Rivaldo got rid of Palovic and sent a through ball, but Nino snatched the ball before Saviola. Finidi got the ball and gave it to Campano. Campano He dribbled the ball across the midfield, but was stared at by Sergi. He had no choice but to pass the ball to Pei Wei in the middle again.

This time Pei Wei took the ball directly to Cocu, and Cocu came up to meet him. Pei Wei pretended to break through to the right, but when he rushed to the right, he passed the ball to Ibagaza on the left.

"Okay! Pei Wei is very calm, he is not reckless!" Aragones thought.

Just when Ibagaza was about to meet the ball, he suddenly felt a strong force coming from his shoulder, and he was squeezed away, and it was Puyol who was defending him.

Puyol kicked the ball forward and Barcelona continued to attack.

"Pei Wei's intention to pass the ball was completely seen through by him, and he really deserves to be Barcelona's new generation of defense leader." Xiao Jun said with emotion from the sidelines.

On the field, Puyol's long pass flew to the head of Saviola in the frontcourt, but he was only 1.6 meters tall and he was no match for Nino in the header. The ball was ejected, and Palo Vic kicked the ball ahead of Rivaldo.

Palovich's performance in the second half was completely different from that in the first half. Although it was impossible to completely control Rivaldo, it also minimized Rivaldo's role on the field.

The ball flew to the frontcourt. Pei Wei did not stand and wait for the ball like last time. He took advantage of his speed and finally got the ball ahead of Cocu.

Kecu was not as fast as Pei Wei, but he had already stuck to Pei Wei when Pei Wei got the ball, and Pei Wei even had difficulty turning around.

At this time Eto'o ran back, and he called out: "Pei!"

Pei Wei knew it was him as soon as he heard it, first made a fake shaking move, and then knocked the ball across.

This time no one came up to intercept the ball, Eto'o did not stop the ball, he passed the ball forward, at this time Pei Wei had already thrown off Cocu and received the ball.

Two over one!

But Keku did not give up, he was still chasing after Pei Wei.

When Pei Wei arrived in front of the penalty area, De Boer rushed out and flanked Cocu back and forth. He knew he couldn't let Pei Wei kick. God knows if Pei Wei's goal just now was fooled. He didn't want to pin his hopes on Pei Wei's shot. Mistake on.

Seeing De Boer rushing towards him, Pei Wei didn't want to fight him resolutely, so he dunked the ball with his right foot and crossed the ball.

De Boer followed closely, and at the same time stretched out a foot, ready to block his shot or pass.

Where's the ball?

De Boer's eyes were full of surprise, the ball that was clearly within his sight suddenly disappeared!
Xiao Jun on the sidelines could see clearly that after Pei Wei swung the ball horizontally, his right foot suddenly took a step forward, blocking the ball behind his own foot, and then he dragged the ball behind his left foot As soon as he knocked the ball, the ball flew out from behind his feet!

This pass flew past Barcelona's defense, and Luke, who came in behind, seized the opportunity of Anderson's momentary loss, rushed into the penalty area, and kicked the goal!

"Damn it!" Xiao Jun jumped up holding his head on the sidelines: "Is there a mistake! I won't enter like this!"

Luke shot a far corner. Bonano stretched his fingers and couldn't touch the ball, but the ball passed his hand and hit the post with a clang!

Luke hugged his head, but the exclamation in the field made him raise his head again!
The ball didn't bounce far, because just now Luke considered more speed than power when shooting!
Two figures are running against the incoming ball, one white and one blue, they are Ibagaza and Puyol!

Obviously, Ibagaza's speed is faster. He is already half a body ahead of Puyol. He is about one meter away from the ball. In order to save time, he quickly fell to the ground and shoveled!
Puyol also fell to the ground at the same time. He was also a flying shovel. Even if he couldn't shovel the ball with his amazing momentum, the opponent would not dare to shoot with all his strength for fear of injury!

Who will touch the ball first?

The answer was revealed a second later. After all, Ibagaza fell to the ground first, kicked the ball hard with his foot, and the ball flew towards the empty goal!
Bonanno got up from the ground, rolling and crawling, and flew over with a glimmer of hope!

The entire Camp Nou fell into silence, leaving only the cheers of more than 1000 visiting team fans who came with the team!
After all, Bonano was a little slower, the ball passed between his fingers and flew into the empty goal!

2: 3! No.208 minutes in the second half, Mallorca tenaciously narrowed the score to one goal!
The goal hero, Ibagaza, did not stand up and cheer. He fell to the ground clutching his left leg, with a painful expression on his face, and big beads of sweat oozing from his head!
Puyol, who couldn't hold his feet, kicked his calf firmly, and almost half of the long spikes were buried in Ibagaza's muscles!
"Damn, did you do it on purpose?" The fiery Luke rushed up and asked loudly.

Pei Wei quickly blocked him, and Luke, who couldn't control himself, was about to swing his fist.

The team doctor had already caught up. He only took a look, and then shouted to the audience: "Ambulance! Call an ambulance!"

An ambulance parked outside the stadium rushed over immediately, and the medical staff carefully carried Ibagaza onto the stretcher, and the ambulance drove away with a "wow".

The referee showed Puyol a yellow card, and the fans booed the referee. In the eyes of the home fans, this was not Puyol's intention at all, but just an unstoppable collision.

Aragones was nervously asking the players to warm up. Ibagaza's injury made the left completely lose his offensive ability. Now is the time to show his substitution ability.

Aragones made two consecutive substitutions, Marcos replaced the injured Ibagaza, and another substitution was a bit surprising.

Argentine winger Bagani replaced Campano, and the Mallorca team changed to a 4-3-3 formation!

Marcos and Palovic played double defensive midfielders, Luke played center forward in the middle, Eto'o went a little to the left, and behind them was Pei Wei!

Aragones is at the bottom of the boat, there is only one goal difference, why not fight it?
