The days of playing football with Da Luo

Chapter 484 Fragile Barcelona

The Barcelona players are very impatient and jump fiercely, always trying to grab the ball as soon as possible.

Ricciardo dropped deep to help the midfield organize, and according to Pellegrini's instructions, the players also regarded him as the core and always gave him the ball.

Using his skills, he can easily avoid the press of Barcelona players and send the ball out.

Most of the time, in pursuit of security, he passes the ball across or back.

But on a few occasions, he will also send a through ball forward to suddenly speed up the slow rhythm.

And the threat is hidden in these through balls.

In the 13th minute, Ricardo took the ball, Harvey and Deco stepped forward to press at the same time, Ricardo pulled the ball continuously to avoid their steals, and suddenly stuffed the ball forward.

Ruud van Nistelrooy started early on, running away from the defenders to get the ball in space.

Of course, this vacancy was only fleeting. Barcelona's defense immediately moved and adjusted.

Ruud van Nistelrooy didn't stick the ball, Puyol hadn't caught it yet, he had already passed the ball to the right.

Raul rushed up to get the ball, and then directly stuffed it back to Van Nistelrooy, successfully playing a 2-to-1 cooperation.

Ruud van Nistelrooy took the ball and took a step. Although the angle was already very small, he tried to take a shot himself. The ball bounced off Milito's leg and rolled right under Raul's feet.

Raul easily accepted, kicked the ball in the opposite direction, and the football hit the net.

"Raul Goallllll! Real Madrid leads 1-0 at home!" The commentator said, "Now the total score has become 3:1, and Real Madrid still has 2 away goals. The situation is already very serious for Barcelona. They You must score at least two goals to ensure that you will not be eliminated after 90 minutes of the game. But it is not easy to score two goals at the Bernabeu!"

After the re-kick-off, Barcelona played more impatiently, while Real Madrid controlled the ball calmly, which made Barcelona play very uncomfortable.

Messi's injury has not healed, which makes him a little timid and unable to let go, and today's threat is greatly reduced.

Harvey and Deco are not tough enough. Although they can control the game through ball control and slow passing, they don't need them to control the game today, but need them to play a sharp attack and try to score as soon as possible!So they have to pass forward more, and to pass forward, they need to be able to hold the ball and swing out of space.

In this case, they must often collide with Baptista and Diarra.Their confrontation ability is obviously not as good as their opponents, which makes it difficult for them to pass a good ball forward today.

Pellegrini is very satisfied with the team's performance and is also very optimistic about the situation on the field. He sat on the coach's bench with his legs crossed, with a smile on his mouth, watching Real Madrid threaten Barcelona through counterattacks again and again.

In the 16th minute, Zambrotta pulled down Ricardo who was running at high speed, received a yellow card, and gave Real Madrid a free kick in a good position, but Ricardo's free kick hit the wall.

In the 20th minute, Ricardo suddenly distributed the ball to the center during the counterattack, and Kaka volleyed the ball slightly higher.

In the 22nd minute, Real Madrid's offensive changed to the right, Raul and Ramos played a cooperation, and Ramos was brought down by Abidal when he was about to cross.Ricardo took a free kick to the penalty area, Ruud van Nistelrooy headed to the top and once again broke through Valdez's ten fingers.

"Van Nistelrooy Goallllll! Real Madrid is leading 2:0! The game has only lasted more than 20 minutes. Barcelona must score 3 goals to come back. This is almost an impossible task!"

"Barcelona is more fragile than ever today. Real Madrid has boosted their morale and confidence. Their prospects for reaching the final are bright!"

The Meilingers in the stands had already exerted all their strength and sang "Forward Madrid" loudly. The white wave was so turbulent that it seemed to sweep everything.

"Today's Real Madrid is like an invincible galaxy battleship!" The commentator said excitedly, "If they can maintain this state, it is by no means a dream for them to win the double crown this season!"

Rijkaard's face was gray and defeated. After the re-kick-off, he immediately made substitution adjustments.

Henry played and replaced Deco, and Barcelona once again offered 4 forwards.

Deco looked very unhappy, was replaced in the first half, no one will be happy.

"Isn't it too early to make a substitution now?" The commentator was skeptical about the substitution, "I always feel that this is not a rational decision, but that Rijkaard is struggling desperately. Is it really useful for Barcelona to replace a striker in the field? Barcelona's midfielder has lost control of the situation in this game and is a bit out of control. Making such a substitution and hoarding 4 forwards can turn the situation around? It's no use for a striker if he can't get the ball."

However, Henry, who had just appeared on the field, dispelled people's doubts with a wonderful individual performance. He pulled to the left side of the penalty area to make a breakthrough, and then suddenly passed the ball back. Messi followed up with a volley and played with high quality. Casillas barely holds the ball.

Soon, he threatened Casillas' goal with a free kick.

But it looks like this is just a flashback for Barcelona.

They were at a complete disadvantage in the midfield competition, with Real Madrid taking control almost effortlessly, playing steadily, and Barcelona couldn't play a decent attack for the rest of the first half.

Instead, Real Madrid kept threatening the opponent's goal.

In the 34th minute, Ricardo's free kick almost broke the goal, but Valdez was brave enough to use his fingertips to dial the ball straight to the dead corner.

In the 40th minute, Ricardo made a breakthrough from the left and made a pass. Diarra, who followed up in the middle, headed the ball high without any defense, and missed a good opportunity to expand the score.

One minute later, Kaka broke through the middle and then split the ball to the left. Ricardo had no time to adjust under the close defense, and directly kicked and shot, but Valdez blocked the ball with his feet.

In the 44th minute, Diarra passed the ball into the penalty area, and Raul shot with his left foot and went slightly wide.

In the first minute of stoppage time in the first half, Ricardo stumbled into the penalty area with the ball and passed the ball to the back point. Raul volleyed from a small angle without marking and hit the ball on the side netting ...

The commentator analyzed: "Real Madrid bombarded their opponents indiscriminately. If Valdez hadn't performed well, Real Madrid would now lead by 3 goals or even 4 goals. Rijkaard's substitution did not have an effect. It is clear that Barcelona are completely out of control in the midfield, they are being suppressed by the opponent. Rijkaard has to find a way immediately, if he does not want to suffer a disastrous defeat, Barcelona must make changes immediately."
