Green Dragon

Chapter 181 This Barcelona is a bit strong

The turf of the Camp Nou stadium is very soft, the grass stem length is moderate, dry and soft, which is the most suitable condition for the game.

The uniform shouts of "Barcelona, ​​Barcelona" sounded from the stands, accompanied by waves of people one after another, which was extremely visually and aurally shocking.

In the wave of red and blue, many fans have even turned gray at the temples. It can be seen that it is a habit of watching football developed for decades, and they are true loyal fans of red and blue.

Many Ajax players are still lamenting the facilities and atmosphere of this five-star stadium, only to find that their city gate has been broken in the blink of an eye!

The moment Iniesta scored, Van Basten was even bragging to Bergkamp that he guessed Guardiola's formation correctly...
-
"Uh, only 2 minutes into the game, Barcelona made a blitz, and Ajax fell behind by one goal..."

Duan Yixuan, a CCTV commentator who was thousands of miles away, did not recover for a long time.

According to their habits, the starting lineups of the two sides are basically introduced 5 minutes after the start of the game, but today he just had a casual chat with the guests, before he had time to look at the analysis list carefully, Iniesta He scored a goal so unceremoniously that he didn't even see the scoring process at all.

The guest Zhang Lu is more conscientious than him: "This is the most common style of play in Barcelona. The side dribbles the ball at high speed, and the center and the other side disrupt the defense by running without the ball. The opponent was dazzled and exhausted, but finally used the least effort to complete the blow in front of the goal..."

"It's still Messi," Duan Yixuan couldn't help but sigh after watching the replay, "Ajax has sent Long Shute, who is the best at defense, to guard Messi closely, but he still got rid of him..."

Zhang Lu also expressed his opinion: "Long Shute's marking may be quite in place for ordinary opponents, but he should remember that his opponents today are not ordinary people. As long as he relaxes a little bit, Messi can complete it." Deadly move!"
-
Long Shute felt a little regretful:
If he had been able to start earlier just now, Messi would not have gained that half-step space; if he had converted his physical energy into acceleration in time after Messi started, maybe he could catch up...

But there is no regret medicine in football games. Even if he can freeze Messi in the next 88 minutes, there is no way to make up for the loss of the ball just now.

So he repented, but it had no effect.
-
Messi, meanwhile, was delighted with his wise decision.

The player responsible for defending himself has excellent speed and reaction. Ibrahimovic, Kaka, Ronaldo and many other players have failed to defeat this unknown little guy. With these lessons learned, Messi will certainly not be careless.

So when he received a pass from Adriano, he chose to pass the ball instead of unloading the ball, adjusting it, and then rushed to the penalty area with the ball, because he knew that with Long's special explosive power and sprint speed, it was very The overtake may be completed in an instant.

The advantage of half a step distance is not even enough for Messi to swing his legs and shoot, because his opponent is too fast and doesn't give him so much time!
-
"Never mind, Dragon."

Suarez, who stepped on the football again, patted Long Shute on the shoulder:

"Pay attention to my running position at any time, and I will help you vent your anger."

Long Shute took a sip: "As the top scorer in the Ajax team, I don't think I need you to help me find my place."

Suarez laughed: "But... don't you think your position is too late today?"

Long Shute shrugged: "Is this distance a problem for me?"
-
After the referee blew the whistle, Ajax's captain and deputy captain passed the ball back to the backcourt.

The Dutch overlords began to organize their first offensive.

With Barcelona's exquisite coordination in front, the Ajax players obviously did not want to be criticized for being a big knife in front of Guan Gong. Everyone passed the football carefully, and then handed it back to the frontcourt as soon as possible.

"Ha ha……"

A Catalan TV commentator gasps with laughter:
"I couldn't believe my eyes just now! Ajax, who have always advocated attacking... in the Nou Camp, they actually put up three defensive midfielders! How afraid of us is Van Basten?"

Although he almost suffocated from laughing, the complacency and conceit in his laughter couldn't be more obvious.

But even the die-hard Ajax fans couldn't refute them, because Van Basten put on an iron bucket formation at the Nou Camp!

In the league, Van Basten's favorite lineup is 4231. The double midfielders of Enno and Longshu form an iron gate in the middle. Perhaps it was influenced by playing in Serie A in the player era. His tactical play The defense is highly respected here, so whether it is Romedal and Emmanuelsen who have left, Suarez who has been made the core of the offense by him, and the newcomers Long Shute and Eriksson who have been promoted to the first team, all It is the type that is good at quick counterattacks.

But in today's starting lineup, he put Anita, who had changed to a full-back, back in the midfielder position, further strengthening the defensive strength in the center.

Longshu specialize in defense against Messi, Enno in charge of Xavi, and Anita to deal with Iniesta, who likes to slant through the ribs.

Keita, who has a long shot, is handed over to De Zeu, who runs diligently. As for Mascherano, he is almost no threat on the offensive end. Don’t worry even if you leave it alone. De Jong is strong enough to stop him. Down.

However, because Barcelona players often cross and change positions, these defensive players must also be ready to switch defense zones or change targets at all times. Execute to the end.

Van Basten has arranged all the changes he can think of, but the price of paying attention to defense is that he cannot concentrate firepower.

Ajax's offense quickly fell into a quagmire. Although Barcelona's frontcourt players were generally of average height, none of them had soft feet when pressing. De Jong made a close press, and although Messi's defensive skills are average, his frequency of shots is enough to make Long Special a headache.

Their penetration in the middle will often be terminated by Mascherano and Busquets, and the two counterattacks they finally made have all evolved into a situation where Suarez singled out Barcelona's entire defense line.

It's not that Gu Yasu is greedy for meritorious deeds, but that Long Shute and the others often have to retreat very deep in defense. When they find a chance to counterattack, there is at least 30 meters between him and Suarez, except for a long pass. Besides, they can hardly help the captain at all.

On the contrary, Barcelona used their tacit cooperation to threaten the visiting team's goal again and again.

In the 23rd minute, Busquets who robbed stopped Dezeu's cross, and the football was directly handed over to Harvey near the center circle.

Barcelona's brain and his good brother Iniesta completed the crossover very naturally as they moved forward, and the football also came to Iniesta's feet in the process of changing positions.

Long Shute had already been dragged to the opposite side by Messi before. He could only watch helplessly as Iniesta flicked his ankle, and the football scraped the turf and pierced through the left back of Blind Jr. zone...

Alves completed overtaking from Blind like a wind, and then blasted a powerful heavy artillery in the penalty area!

Vermeer finally reacted this time. He opened his arms and stretched them with all his strength, trying to prevent the football from crossing the goal line, but the full blow of the Brazilian defender was so fierce that although his fingertips hooked the football, But there is still no way to complete the save!

Guardiola clapped his hands on the sidelines with a relaxed look on his face.

Platini didn't lie, the feeling of getting a big gift bag...it's great!
