Chapter 744 Barcelona's Dead End

Marcelo's diagonal long pass was transferred very comfortably.

Su Dong was on the right side of the front of the penalty area, facing Marcelo's pass, raised his right foot, stopped the ball with the inside of his foot, and stopped the ball directly under his feet.

Almost at the same time, Puyol also came in front of Su Dong, blocking Su Dong's way through the restricted area with his body.

Yaya Toure, who was originally on the right side of the top of the arc, and Sedu Keita, who was inside the top of the arc, both ran to the right at the first time.

Just as Su Dong stopped the ball, Robben was running forward along the right line behind him, ready to meet Su Dong at any time, and at the same time pulled Maxwell to the right side of the penalty area, freeing Su Dong for a one-on-one chance with Puyol.

Time is precious, and with just a second or two, Seydu Keita is almost there.

Su Dong made a decisive decision, and after stopping the ball, he took a step forward, making a gesture to rush into the penalty area, as if he wanted to cooperate with Robben.

After Puyol followed suit, Su Dong suddenly dunked the ball with his right foot, pulled his left foot horizontally, and cut inward.

This sudden change made it impossible for Puyol to seal Su Dong anymore.

After pulling the ball horizontally and opening a gap, Sudong didn't wait for Sedu Keita to approach, swung his left foot, and kicked a straight kick, which went straight to the upper left corner of the goal.

This sudden shot made the entire Bernabéu stadium scream.

Valdés originally stood on the left side, but as Marcelo's big foot shifted, he also moved to the right side, but Su Dong's arc kick turned to the upper left corner again, which immediately made Valdez feel very strenuous, and he rushed to the left front with all his strength.

Although Valdez's reaction speed was already very fast, Su Dong's shot was faster and more urgent, and the angle was even more tricky. It was almost installed on the inside of the left post and hit the side net.

"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!"

"In 3 minutes, Bayern will make another victory!"

"Su Dong scored twice!"

After Su Dong scored, the whole person rushed to the sidelines quickly, ran all the way, kept shouting, raised his left hand, kissed the ring on his finger vigorously, and finally went to the sidelines and opened his arms to the Bayern fans in the stands.

Soon, Bayern's players were scrambling to catch up, hugging him tightly one after another.

"beautiful!"

"Marcelo made a long pass, and Su Dong stopped the ball on the right side of the penalty area. Facing Puyol, in a one-on-one, a clean inside cut and a left-footed curve ball hit the goal. Go straight to the upper left corner of the goal."

"The whole process was like flowing clouds and flowing water, and it was done in one go. Su Dong didn't give the defensive players any time to react."

"Two to one, Bayern once again exceeded the score."

……

"What's going on? Why did he let him pass it?"

Mourinho opened his hands on the sidelines and asked very depressedly.

Conceding a goal first, and then equalizing the score, Barcelona can be said to be in high spirits, which is why Barcelona has maintained an overwhelming advantage over Bayern since the equalizer.

Although he has not been able to score again for a long time, he still maintains the advantages of possession and field.

But now, not long after the start of the second half, a goal was suddenly conceded, which depressed Barcelona's morale.

Mourinho is very clear that for Barcelona now, morale is crucial.

Without morale, the players' thinking is not unified, which is a taboo in the game.

What's worse, time is not on Barcelona's side now.

It is now 3 minutes into the second half. If no goal is scored, Barcelona will be in a more passive situation.

Thinking of this, Mourinho really has the urge to scold his mother.

Fuck Bayern!

Go to the fucking Sudong!

……

Puyol stood on the field very depressed, staring blankly at the backs of the Bayern players running out to celebrate, with mixed feelings in his heart.

It's not that he didn't want to stop it, the problem is, he couldn't stop it at all.

Facing Su Dong just now, he had already tried his best, but he was still slow in the end.

From one to one to one to two, the gap is very large.

It can even be said that this ball completely changed the trend of the game.

The current situation forces Barcelona to press out and attack, and must strive for another goal.

The longer the time drags on, the worse it will be for Barcelona.

The reason is simple. The most important test of Barcelona's passing and possession style of play is patience.

Only when the morale of the team is high, the players have a unified mind, and the whole team is full of patience, can they control the ball slowly, penetrate patiently, and find loopholes in the opponent's defense.

Conversely, if you are impatient, there will be more mistakes in passing and receiving the ball, and the opponent will have more opportunities to counterattack.

In a way, urgency is the natural enemy of the pass and possession style of play.

But now, Su Dong's goal is equivalent to putting Barcelona on the fire, forcing Barcelona to go all out to score as soon as possible. The longer it is delayed, the more urgent it will be.

Wanting to understand this level, Puyol regretted so much that he wished he could wring his head off.

…………

…………

The game restarts.

Barcelona began to take the initiative, pressing forward actively, looking for opportunities.

Messi and Zlatan Ibrahimovic have also become more active in the frontcourt, and Xavi in ​​the midfield has also begun to actively move forward. Alves and Maxwell are also more active on the two sides, frequently advancing forward.

Bayern is as calm as ever, patiently organizing a three-line defense, not in a hurry to attack and counterattack, but patiently defending its own position, waiting for Barcelona's attack.

This made the sidelines once again one-sided.

Barcelona had possession but failed to create chances.

……

"Barcelona's style of play is indeed very advanced and the concept is very good, but at critical moments, there is still a lack of some changes."

Zidane, who was in charge of the commentary, also thought about the dilemma facing Barcelona now.

Bayern learned the experience and lessons of conceding a goal 2 minutes after the equalizer in the first half. After scoring the lead, they continued to adopt a steady and steady strategy. Heynckes even ran to the sidelines frequently, shouting loudly at the players, asking each of them to cheer up.

Barcelona is pressing forward with all their brains, trying to tear through Bayern's defense by passing and controlling the ball.

But the problem is that when the three lines are in place and Bayern organizes a tight defense, it is difficult for Barcelona to play through.

"Mourinho should be about to make a substitution," Ronnie guessed.

Barcelona's bench also sat a Eto'o.

At this point in the game, it is no longer time to hide and hide, and you should use any tricks as soon as possible.

In fact, Barcelona now only have Eto'o this move.

If Eto'o fails to play an effective role, then Barcelona really has nothing to do.

"Eto'o went up and returned to Barcelona's traditional four-three-three formation, or simply adopted four-four-two and let Messi play the midfielder. I believe that Barcelona's offense will be more threatening at this time."

Speaking of this, Zidane changed the subject, "However, in this way, there will be hidden dangers in the defense, especially the defense against Su Dong, but Mourinho has no choice!"

Entering six 10 minutes, the time is not on Barcelona's side at all, what choice does Mourinho have?

Since Su Dong scored the second goal, Barcelona was cornered.

Sure enough, as soon as Zidane's voice fell and the time jumped to 10 minutes, Mourinho signaled for a substitution.

"He likes the substitution at this point very much. Frankly speaking, I think Mourinho's substitution is quite mechanical." Ronnie smiled wryly.

Although he is a Portuguese compatriot, he is not particularly interested in Mourinho's football.

This is not only because he played for Sporting Lisbon at the beginning, and was a deadly enemy with Mourinho's Porto.

More importantly, Mourinho's football does not advocate offense, but pays more attention to defense. For an offensive player like Ronnie, it is really not a very appetizing choice.

Zidane also disliked Mourinho's football.

Although he has been immersed in Italian football for many years, Zidane is a midfielder known for his creativity. He is practical, but he still has a tendency to attack football, and he is not very interested in Mourinho's football philosophy.

Of course, no one can deny Mourinho's achievements.

Leading Barcelona to win La Liga and reach the Champions League final for at least two consecutive seasons is already a huge success!

…………

…………

Eto'o replaced Seydoux Keita.

Barcelona's formation changed and adopted a [-] formation.

Eto'o and Zlatan Ibrahimovic were pushed up front and became a double striker. Messi was cruising behind the two strikers, more like a midfielder. Iniesta and Xavi were behind Messi, and Yaya Toure was dragged at the end.

It can be said to be four-three-three, but judging from the player's position, it is more like a four-four-two midfielder's small diamond-shaped position.

The two full-backs also actively advanced to participate in the attack, which shows Mourinho's determination and courage.

Barcelona has obviously reached a critical moment to give it a go.

After Eto'o came on the field, Barcelona's formation pressed up again, almost pushing the defense line past the center line, trying to suppress Bayern in their own half.

Heynckes kept signaling to the team to stabilize the defense, and at the same time was actively preparing for substitutions.

No.605 minutes, Bayern made the team's first substitution, replacing Marcelo with Budstuber.

This is a signal to strengthen the defense, especially the left defense.

Everyone knows that Marcelo's defense is a major weakness.

If Bayern can control the ball, then Marcelo's defense on this side is not a big problem, but now Bayern is completely suppressed by the opponent, Marcelo's defense is a big hidden danger.

I didn't think about making up before, because Marcelo's offense is the team's help.

But now, this loophole must be filled as soon as possible.

……

After the two teams made their substitutions, Barcelona continued to attack Bayern, but failed to break through Bayern's defense.

More can only threaten the goal with long-range shots, but Neuer was solid in front of the goal.

The most threatening thing was Messi's long-range arc kick, which went straight to the dead corner, but was saved by Neuer and completed a wonderful world-class save.

Subsequently, Barcelona could no longer create a threat.

In the No. 70 minute, Heynckes made the second substitution first, replacing Modric with Thomas Muller.

Both Ribery and Robben retreated sharply, defending against Alves and Maxwell, and Su Dong was relatively passive in front alone.

Heynckes replaced Thomas Müller. On the one hand, it strengthened the pressing and oppression of the midfield and relieved the pressure of the midfield, but at the same time, it also increased the threat of counterattack.
