On March 3, this day came.

The entire Camp Nou has turned into a sea of ​​red and blue. It has been three years since their last Champions League champion.

Manchester City doesn't want this to happen, they need to score, because Barcelona has two away goals, so it is bound to force Manchester City to come out and attack!
But the pedigree in Barcelona's bones is not defensive counterattack, they need offense.

Ball control and offense are things in the blood of Barcelona, ​​and this game is no exception.

At the whistle, the game begins!

Barcelona sits at home, they still choose to take the lead in attacking.

What they need is space, so after the kick-off, their players are very scattered, but they can receive the pass from their teammates as soon as possible while running.

At this time, it is Iniesta who dominates Barcelona's rhythm. Under his combing, every wave of Barcelona's running drives Manchester City's defense. It feels like peeling an onion, layering Manchester City's defense layer by layer. peel off.

Messi's running to the bottom line on the right attracted Fernandinho's attention. It is impossible to let this Barcelona heavyweight go unnoticed.

Once you let it go, you can know the consequences with your ass.

With Fernandinho being pulled away, David Silva is also wary of Rakitic, and the midfielder who can serve as Barcelona's starter will naturally not be weak.

After Rakitic received Xiaobai's pass, he judged the situation and kicked a high ball directly to Suarez who retreated to the midfielder.

The location of this pass was predicted by Zheng Lin. He strode forward and wanted to intercept it.

But he didn't notice the position of Suarez behind him.

"boom"

The two collided abruptly.

Judging from the camera, both of them collided into each other without slowing down in order to fight for the ball, and both of them fell to the ground hard.

Judging from the take-off situation, Zheng Lin was at a disadvantage, and his brow bone hit Suarez's raised elbow.

This wave directly spilled blood on the spot.

After landing, Zheng Lin looked behind him. He realized that he was injured. This was the first time he saw blood on the field!

"drop!"

The game was immediately suspended.

Zheng Lin was arranged to deal with the wound on the sidelines. After all, this situation must be dealt with.

"Can this be dealt with immediately?"

Zheng Lin gasped and asked. He felt very uncomfortable when he hit someone's elbow just now. Fortunately, after he calmed down, he felt that the current problem is not serious, but the bleeding problem It must be resolved.

"Yes, don't move!"

The team doctor wiped off the blood flowing from Zheng Lin's face, and at the same time put gauze on Zheng Lin's brow bone.

After reconfirming that the wound had stopped bleeding, Zheng Lin was allowed to return to the field.

Because Zheng Lin ended up dealing with the wound, the situation on the court was extremely suppressed by Barcelona!
From the perspective of a bystander, Manchester City's goal will appear sooner or later, after all, there is currently one less player fighting.

With Zheng Lin back on the field, Manchester City's midfield defense gradually stabilized, and Barcelona's offensive also weakened. Instead, they began to increase their possession rate to find opportunities to score.

This is a major feature of Barcelona. When they cannot quickly convert the offensive into goals, they will reorganize the offensive situation on the field through continuous passing.

At this moment, they still have this choice.

Under the effective scheduling of Iniesta, the football began to pass back to the position of central defender Pique. They used this situation to re-open the space for the front trident.

For MSN, if they have room to make adjustments, then there is a chance to form a goal in the cooperation of the three.

Sure enough, after Iniesta's redistribution, Rakitic scored the ball to Alves on the right.

As one of the representatives of full-backs known for their attacking ability, Alves has also shown his ability at this moment.

I saw that he was facing Fernandinho who was defending in the past, and he made a fancy move to match his rhythm, and passed the person, but as long as he moved forward with a distance of about ten meters, he would be able to It hit!

Kolarov wanted to step forward to make up defense, but after Alves scored the ball, he continued to advance, which also caused Kolarov to fall into a dilemma. Fortunately, he had Zheng Lin who returned to defense, otherwise he would You can only defend Messi!

After Messi received the ball, he failed to pass Zheng Lin with two fried balls in a row, but his small step-like dribbling advance still caused Zheng Lin's center of gravity to deviate.

This deviation was also noticed by Messi, who knew very well that this was his opportunity, so he took a fake action to continue to deceive Zheng Lin's center of gravity, because only in this way can he proceed to the next step.

With this in mind, Messi really made Zheng Lin's center of gravity unstable.

This situation also made Zheng Lin feel a little emotional. Messi is really strong. At this time, his ability to protect the ball is first-rate, not to mention his excellent shooting skills and that excellent free kick.

It was too late to feel emotional, when Messi grabbed Zheng Lin's center of gravity and shifted to the right, he directly pulled the ball and cut inside!
After a stagger, Zheng Lin relied on his body's flexibility, he quickly stabilized his figure and chased up again.

After the inside cut, before Zheng Lin returned to the defense in time, Messi made another adjustment and hit the goal directly against Demichelis!
The goal of this kick is directed to the left side of the goal.

Seeing that the goal is about to be lost, Joe Hart, as the goalkeeper, made everyone unforgettable tonight.

"Messi hit the goal, and this kick went straight to the left of the goal. Joe Hart refused this shot again! Tonight, Joe Hart seems to have three heads and six arms. Facing Barcelona's powerful attack line, he has already Made amazing saves many times, guarding the last line of defense for Manchester City!"

For failing to score, Messi waved his hands a little annoyed. For Manchester City in the past few games, he seemed not very comfortable playing.

This is the fourth time he has faced Zheng Lin. Although he won the final victory last year, Zheng Lin's performance surprised him a little. look!

This is a game of life and death. Although Manchester City is not as strong as Barcelona, ​​there is never a shortage of upsets on the football field!
Manchester City quickly launched a counterattack after Messi missed a shot.

If you want to advance to the next round, you must win Barcelona away. If not, then unless there is another 2-2, Manchester City will eventually be eliminated.

So for Manchester City, they must play fast and run, because Barcelona, ​​​​who are fighting on the third line, does not have so many rotations, and their physical fitness will eventually be problematic!

After Manchester City's offensive players dispersed, Zheng Lin was in the position of left midfielder. This is not the first time he has appeared there, but his previous performances were extremely bad, and this time Pellegrini arranged him I didn't know what I was thinking about in the past.

Football is under the control of Moussa Sissoko. As a combination of Mohamed Diarra and Vieira, his attacking ability is not bad, and he also has a good long-range shot.

Although Zheng Lin also has a long shot, but this guy seems to use it less, I don't know what he thinks.

In the small-scale cooperation of the four-person team in the frontcourt, Zheng Lin is in an excellent position, which happens to be within his shooting range.

David Silva, who served as the front midfielder, saw immediately that he was pretending to approach Navas on the right, and suddenly passed the ball with a strong kick in the middle, and the ball was very fast, which also caught Mascherano by surprise.

Zheng Lin made some adjustments and kicked the door violently.

"Pass the ball, David Silva is a move, he tricked Mascherano, the football came to Zheng Lin on the left side, is he shooting directly or is he passing the ball further forward Aguero?"

"Here is also within his shooting range, as long as he kicks, then he has a chance to directly threaten the goal!"

"OMG! Zheng Lin shot directly, ignoring Pique and the others. This choice is a bit sloppy. If we continue.
The ball went in! ! !
In the 33rd minute of the game, Manchester City, who had been pressed by Barcelona for nearly 20 minutes, ushered in their first attack. After their midfielder Zheng Lin received a pass from David Silva, he directly Explosive shot, scored a valuable goal for Manchester City in the away game! "

"At this time, Manchester City is 1-0 ahead of Barcelona at home!"

For this goal, Manchester City's hope of advancing is still slim. Judging from the current suppressed situation, unless Joe Hart has a god-level performance this time, it will be a matter of time before Barcelona breaks the goal.

After a rough calculation, Joe Hart has made more than five saves in just over 30 minutes. Without his performance, Manchester City would have already been scored.

With this goal, the Nou Camp booed, they had nothing to say about Manchester City's performance, they expressed their protest to Barcelona's defense more.

The game restarts.

After falling behind by a goal, Barcelona played very patiently. They no longer chose long passes that might make mistakes, but more through short passes in a small range to penetrate Manchester City's defense.

This situation makes Manchester City a little uncomfortable, because when two defenders face two or more defenders, it is difficult for them to make the best choice. At this time, they can only defend according to the direction of football transmission. .

In the 43rd minute of the game, Rakitic and Iniesta in the midfield and the trident in the frontcourt had already suppressed Manchester City in front of their penalty area.

It's just that they don't have a good chance, and they are still passing the ball continuously.

Iniesta kicked a through ball, allowing Suarez to divert the defense, and because the opportunity was not good, Suarez directly chose to pass it diagonally to Messi.

Zheng Lin, who was going to mark Messi, never thought that Messi would take advantage of the trend, and then the football fell to Rakitic who was behind him.

Rakitic just pushed and shot.

"Messi made a beautiful goal, followed by Rakitic with a push and the goal scored!!!!"

"At the end of the first half, Messi made a clever choice to get Barcelona back a point. At this moment, all the pressure came to Manchester City.
If Manchester City can't score in the second half, then this season's Champions League will come to an end for them! "

The total score has come to 3-3, because Barcelona has 2 away goals. At this time, the score on the field is still in a 1-1 situation. If you want to go further, then Manchester City can only go all out!
For the first half of this game, Manchester City seized the few opportunities, but their situation on the court was too passive, which also caused them to be at the risk of being scored at any time. In the next game, they must strengthen their defense.

But the most uncomfortable thing is that Manchester City cannot come up with a very effective way to face Barcelona's MSN, especially when Suarez has been integrated into Barcelona's tactics, this omnipotent center is really too much. It's scary.

Not to mention Messi and Neymar at the winger positions on both sides.

One is a talented player from Barcelona, ​​and the other is the most outstanding genius in the Samba Kingdom. Both of them have top talents. With a flash of inspiration, this is all panic for Manchester City's relatively "weak" defense.

During the intermission, Manchester City must come up with a better defensive strategy.

And Barcelona felt sorry for their failure to score more goals in the first half, but they did not lose confidence because of this!

Enrique, who is the head coach, once again emphasized, "Don't worry, let's take our time, we still have an advantage. In the second half, Javier, you should pay attention to the movement of Manchester City's midfield. Jeremy, you should take the initiative. Don't be so passive, after Jordi goes up, you take care of the touchline!"

He points to Mascherano in the defensive midfielder and Mathieu in the central defender. For these two players, he may be worried about Mathieu. If Busquets cannot play, then They will not be so passive in this game.

As the head coach, he has naturally heard rumors that Mathieu is a man with 0-1 attributes, but it is normal for someone to break the goal. Players are human beings, not machines, so they will always There are mistakes, but as long as you make mistakes and correct them in time, you are a good player!

In the second half, they changed sides and fought again. Barcelona is ready, and they are bound to advance to the next round!
As for Manchester City, they can only say one thing: We will step on your shoulders to the end and win the championship in the end!
As a giant in La Liga, Barcelona needs this championship to tell the world that we, Barcelona, ​​are back!
