Chapter 501 Atletico Madrid is in danger
No one knows what Vilanova said to the Barcelona players at half-time.

At the beginning of the second half, Barcelona suddenly accelerated their offensive rhythm, as if they wanted to eat Atletico Madrid in one bite.

For this reason, Simeone reminded the players to retreat and defend first, but don't forget to counterattack.After all, although Barcelona's offensive power is strong today, the defense is really empty.

As a result, before the counterattack came, the penalty kick came.

With the strong support of the Nou Camp, Barcelona's players are very aggressive.Especially on the two wings, Alba and Pedro rushed into the penalty area one after another, Xavi, Iniesta, and Fabregas kept passing through, and Atletico Madrid had to tighten their defense.

Under the tide of the offensive, Atletico Madrid's defense once again had its own problems.

"Xavi to Iniesta! Give it to Fabregas! Gabi helps defend! Cross Xavi! Xavi suddenly goes straight! The ball goes past Juan Forlan! Alba cuts in at high speed and catches the ball!"

Alba's movements are quite flexible, and he also held his breath in this game.

Ever since he was defeated by the German team in the European Cup, he wanted to avenge Kaiser.

Throughout the first half, Alba was in a state of extreme excitement, inserting assists one after another, making Juan Forlan difficult to parry.

Fran is not afraid of confrontation, but a quick spirit like Alba is hard for him to parry.

"Alba rushes into the penalty area! A cross in the middle!"

This ball Alba gave a half-high ball, but the ball hit Miranda's arm in the middle and bounced towards the goal.Courtois quickly saved the ball, and the referee blew his whistle in his ears.

"Penalty kick! Let's see! The referee pointed to the penalty spot! Miranda is explaining to the referee! The ball was hit in my own hand, and I didn't intentionally handball it!"

Gabi, Godin and other team leaders surrounded the referee and kept explaining.

However, the referee raised his arm mercilessly, indicating that this is an irrefutable penalty.

"The referee upheld the original verdict! Messi came to take the penalty!"

A huge caricature of Messi winning the Ballon d'Or suddenly floated out of the stands. It can be seen that the Camp Nou fans had prepared it long ago.

The first half of the game was anxious, Messi and Caesar were evenly matched, it was not the time for this cartoon to appear.

But now, seeing that Messi is about to perform a hat-trick, overtake Caesar, and lead Atletico Madrid, the Camp Nou supporters hastened to unfold the comics, singing songs to cheer Messi triumphantly.

Courtois took the ball and walked up to Messi, who lowered his head and didn't know what he was thinking.

"You will kick the ball to the left of the goal, ground ball." After finishing speaking, Courtois stuffed the ball into Messi's arms, and Xavi also came over and pushed Courtois away.

"Leo, ignore him, kick the ball in." Xavi also whispered in Messi's ear.

The reason why Harvey is so nervous is that in the semi-finals of the Champions League last season, Messi kicked a penalty kick, causing the team to fall short.

This time, the team is 2 points behind Atletico Madrid, and Messi and Caesar are evenly matched.As long as Messi scores this goal, Barcelona can surpass Atletico Madrid, and he can also defeat Caesar and win the Ballon d'Or.

For such an important penalty, Harvey certainly hopes that Messi will score it.

Courtois stands on the goal line, constantly moving sideways.

He was interfering with Messi's judgment, slapping the crossbar with his hands up.

I don’t know if these psychological hints are useful. Anyway, Courtois was there to entertain himself until the referee blew his whistle.

Messi kept his head down, and when he looked up, Courtois suddenly felt that he had lost.

"Messi run-up! Hit the goal!"

"Spoon penalty! Scoop penalty! Messi scored Atletico Madrid with a rather elegant scoop penalty! This is Messi's 3rd goal of the game and he scored a hat-trick!"

Harvey breathed a sigh of relief, rushed up and threw himself on Messi's back.

At this time, Messi smiled very happily. He once again saved the team and helped himself to the top.

Courtois shook his head, didn't Cech say that this trick worked for Messi?

How could someone kick out a spoon?

The game continued, and Barcelona continued to attack.They have already displayed their aura, and they have even displayed the domineering spirit of the year.

Now Simeone is no longer thinking about counterattacks, but how to reduce conceded goals.

He squatted on the sidelines, staring at the past.

"Xavi controls the game! Go to Messi! Go to Pedro! Fabregas comes out to receive the ball! Go to Adriano! Go back to Puyol!"

Now it has entered the "TIKI-TAKA" rhythm that Barcelona likes. Atletico Madrid's midfielder is exhausted and just can't win.

Costa gritted his teeth and joined the press.

"Now the team lacks momentum and urgently needs an attack to break the status quo!" Boggs also walked to the sidelines and said to Simeone who was squatting on the ground.

"Has Saul gone to warm up?" Simeone asked.

"It's already gone."

"Call him back! Alba is almost stationed in our restricted area, how can he be so arrogant!"

Alba made another mistake in the European Cup, being too aggressive and forgetting that he is actually a full-back.

What Barcelona didn't notice was that Caesar fought all the way, moving from the left to the right.Turan then moved to the middle, and Atletico Madrid quietly completed the switch.

"Xavi give it to Pedro in the middle! Pedro wants to go straight!"

Vidal appeared in time for Pedro's passing position and intercepted the ball.

It's a pity that Messi appeared suddenly and intercepted the ball.Then, before Vidal got up, Messi took a step with the ball and dribbled it horizontally.

"Gabi is defending! But Messi is faster! Messi! Messi points to Iniesta! Iniesta is on Miranda's back! Short pass in the penalty area! Such a close distance! The two are still playing against the wall!"

Messi's running position and Iniesta's pass bypassed all Atletico Madrid's defense in an instant.

"Messi goes straight to Courtois! Hit the goal!"

Courtois only felt a white light brush past his ear, and then the ball hit the net again.

"4:2! Barcelona scored another goal! Expanded the lead to two! There is still half an hour in the game! Does Atletico Madrid still have a chance?"

If the fans at Camp Nou were still worried that Atletico Madrid might equalize the score, now they only have one thought.

This game is for sure!
Vilanova also sat in his seat with peace of mind. With a score of 4:2, he didn't believe that the team could still lose?

"Now I see who else says you are not as good as Pep." The assistant coach next to him said.

Since the new season, Vilanova has always heard some voices.

"Playing so well is not because of the foundation laid by Guardiola."

"My grandma can be the head coach of Barcelona!"

"Villanova is just a low-profile version of Guardiola, Guardiola can do what he knows!"

Now, I want to see who dares to say such a thing!
