Chapter 478 Tiki-Taka
Valencia started the second half as if they had changed a team. No matter what happened to Barcelona, ​​Valencia began to use Barcelona's tradition to attack Barcelona.

Although Vincent didn't tell the players now, it does look like Tiki-Taka, but Barcelona likes to pass the ball into the goal, and now Valencia tries to send it into the air as much as possible.

To be honest, Tony's height and weight have absolute suppression in La Liga, and Barcelona have always liked to use central defenders who are not tall and have good mobility. Tony's existence is painful for them, and De Boer is not in the national team. For the high-altitude ball, there is Stam in the Dutch team.

Now Valencia doesn't care about anything else, just smashing on Tony desperately. Once or twice, De Boer and Puyol can use their bodies to control Tony's bounce, but there are always times when they can't take care of it, and they can't Turn a blind eye to Valencia's two midfielders and have to take care of them, so the opportunity to distract Tony will come.

In the 57th minute, Angulo had already broken through to the corner of the penalty area, but instead of continuing to cut in and shoot, he still kicked the ball into the air.

Tony wasn't ready for the ball first, he thought Angulo would shoot or cross.But Tony was not ready, and De Boer and Puyol were even less likely to be prepared. The ball flew to the goal unexpectedly.

Tony, De Boer and Puyol are all a bit slower, but at the same time they are at a point where they can be recovered. Now it depends on who can touch the ball forward.

The reaction was so hasty this time, De Boer and Puyol didn't have time to use any free jumping movements for Tony. When the two raised their feet and ran back to chase the ball, Tony was different from them, with both legs exerting strength. Leap forward vigorously.

The two people running back must not be as fast in the air. Just when the two central defenders were in place, Tony's head had already made contact with the incoming ball.

Then he flew towards the goal. By the way, there was actually another person who grabbed the ball just now, that is, the goalkeeper of Barcelona. As a South American, Bonano chose to attack this half-deep ball, but the price of this attack was that he was away from the goal. The ball was too close to react to Tony's dive.

The second goal happened like this, but Tony collided with Bonano after he headed the ball. Although the goal was scored, Tony did not celebrate. De Boer and Puyol confiscated their feet and pressed them again, which made the injuries of the two players worse.

Fan Shang didn't have the time to celebrate, so he hurriedly ordered the team doctor to go up and take a look, while he waited anxiously on the sidelines. Tony was too important to Valencia. If the fulcrum in the penalty area was lost, Fan Shang's entire offensive system would be overthrown. Come on, the substitute players Alonso and Zigic can be replaced occasionally. If Tony is injured for a long time, Vincent will really be passive.

Just thinking about it, a substitution gesture by the team doctor made Fan Shang feel like falling into an ice cave. The matter was really unspoken, and Tony was really injured.

Vincent had no choice but to let Diego Alonso warm up, and then Valencia replaced two people in a row, Diego Alonso replaced Tony, and Abidal replaced Djukic.

Although Alonso is also a good center forward, he is far behind Toni in terms of deterrence, especially in the face of Barcelona's defense. Toni can have some advantages by virtue of his body. Tony, so he was eaten to death by the two central defenders of Barcelona.

Fan Shang is now worried about why he didn't include Zikic in the substitute lineup. Anyway, with a height of 2 meters, he can scare Barcelona even if he is scared.

However, Fan Shang also anticipated this situation when he made the substitution, so he told captain Albelda the solution in advance, and now Alonso only has a diversionary role, anyway, Barcelona will not let a center forward in the penalty area In an unmarked state.

Fan Shang's instruction was to let the four attacking midfielders find opportunities to shoot as soon as they entered the penalty area, and don't look for any center forward's head. Now the center forward's head is not hard enough.

So Mendieta and Angulo stepped up their cut-in shots, and Belleron and Aimar often went to the wing to assist them to break through the penalty area. The long-range shots were usually placed by Albelda, and Barra Ha, let's go back a little bit. After all, Valencia doesn't have many defenders now, so Baraja still needs to take care of it.

But after all, there have been training and games supported by the center before, so now they don't need to pass the ball to the center, which makes these midfielders really at a loss.

Barcelona's attack in the second half turned into a counterattack because of Vincent's request to Valencia. In the second half, several Valencia midfielders firmly controlled the midfield under Vincent's request. Several people passed each other to run. They all have a tacit understanding, which makes several Barcelona midfielders exhausted.

Before the 70th minute of the game, Barcelona also changed two people, first replacing Gabri with Reziger, and then replacing his compatriot Giovanni with Roschenback.

By the 75th minute, Barcelona's defense was really under too much pressure, so they made another substitution, replacing Anderson with Saviola, so that Barcelona became a 532-[-]-[-] formation. People make Fan Shang very incomprehensible.

From Vincent's point of view, Barcelona has always been attacking before, but they didn't retreat to defend after being scored two goals. If Vincent's intention is followed, they must continue to change frontcourt players. .

In the 80th minute, Valencia also made a third substitution. Vincent replaced Aimar with Toftin. Valencia has besieged Barcelona for so long without success, and Vincent is also planning to let the team retreat. Yes, after all, Barcelona has strengthened its defense now, and Vincent felt that the gains outweighed the losses if he tried to dig in.

The two teams on the field are indeed a little tired, and the two teams are thinking about how to use up the remaining game time.Especially for Barcelona, ​​if they still wanted to hit Valencia's goal before the substitution, Barcelona's heart was completely vented after the substitution, and they directly broke the jar and started individual combat.

Kluivert started to take the ball from the midfield and played a long drive, but his long drive lasted only a dozen meters before being intercepted by Ayala. The same is true for Enrique. was stopped.
