Chapter 97

If you don't talk about the handling of high-altitude balls, Alba's performance in other defensive scenarios is definitely the top of the top.

Compared with Falcao and Roberto, he is the fastest of the three!
Seeing that the situation was not good, he immediately resorted to his extremely high-frequency steps and went straight to Falcao.

But the current scene is that Falcao in the middle drives straight in.

Alba and Roberto are on the left and right, and it will take some time to complete the encirclement of Falcao.

However, with a distance of tens of meters and the position at the front of the restricted area, Falcao can kill in a blink of an eye.

If the two defenders can't get into a good defensive position before he gets in range, the ball is in jeopardy!
"Hold him, Serge!"

Seeing that Roberto was closer to Falcao, Alba could only call him anxiously.

Alba's meaning for this ball is very obvious. He didn't want Roberto to try a 1v1 interception.

Against a forward with the ball at full speed, the best defensive strategy for a defender is to force the striker to slow down or take the ball further away from the goal by occupying a good defensive position or using a certain degree of physical confrontation.

However, Alba far overestimated Roberto's understanding of defense.

When there was still one body away from Falcao, Roberto was in a hurry!

At this time, if he pulls Falcao with his hand, or leans on Falcao with his shoulder, the defensive effect may be much better.

However, after approaching Falcao, Roberto had a premonition that his speed could not keep up with the opponent.

In this case, Roberto was afraid that the opponent would roar past him.He was so heartbroken that he chose to give it a go!
Lower the center of gravity of the body, and put the right elbow on the ground.

Lying sideways on the ground, Roberto's left leg hooked towards the ball under Falcao's feet!

This is a very professional side tackle position, however, it is not the best choice.

Roberto's position puts his ankle in the safest possible position.

But the sideways gap just gave Falcao enough time to dodge.

Oops!

Watching Roberto put the shovel sideways, Alba frowned, feeling that something was going to go wrong.

Even if Roberto puts a shovel on this ball, he should use the closest foot, which is the instep of his right foot, to hook.

First, it reduces the time required to turn sideways, and second, the downward inertia of the body will also make this movement faster.

Shaking his head, Alba felt that shoveling the ball was not a good choice at all!

Facts have proved that Alba's judgment is still more accurate.

The moment Roberto lay on his side, Falcao sensed his intentions.

The Colombian striker took the ball, exerted force on his calf, and jumped into the air.

The ball is divided!

In an instant explosion, Falcao's men and the ball avoided Roberto's tackle respectively.

With both feet on the ground, Falcao saw a large open land in front of him.

"Pretty!"

"Falcao got rid of Roberto's defense and kept going!"

"Alba is still catching up, he is likely to get a one-handed chance!"

As a goalkeeper who has experienced various big scenes, Ter Stegen is obviously more courageous than the young Luca Zidane.

Faced with this situation, even though Alba still has a few percent chance of catching up, he resolutely chose to abandon the door and attack!
Gritting his teeth, the German came straight to Falcao like a lion out of the cage.

For some inexperienced strikers, Ter Stegen's fearless aura will largely affect their determination.

However, Falcao is the top scorer in the history of the Colombian national team after all. Facing Ter Stegen's challenge, he did not show a trace of fear.

At a suitable distance, he slowed down a little and raised his toes slightly!
"Ter Stegen strikes!"

"Falcao! Falcao! He chose a kick!"

"The goal is scored! This goal is scored!"

"Goal, Goal, Goal, Goooooooooooooooal!"

In the 22nd minute of the game, Vallecano relied on a counterattack from a corner kick, and Falcao scored the goal.

1:1, Vallecano tied the score!

"Ter Stegen did well enough for Vallecano's goal! He chose to take the initiative when his teammates made defensive mistakes."

"However, it can only be said that the opponent's performance is even better. The German goalkeeper can only look at the ball and sigh!"

The commentator seems to prefer aggressive goalkeepers, and he doesn't think Ter Stegen needs to take responsibility for Barcelona's conceded goal.

In fact, in the conceded goal just now, Ter Stegen really couldn't do better.

It can only be said that Roberto is a bit outrageous, or Falcao is really too good!
Falcao's goal changed the situation on the field for Vallecano, but Barcelona did not seem too pessimistic.

If this kind of scene happened under Koeman, Ter Stegen might pull Roberto and give him a good lecture.

But since Koeman left, everyone seems to be in a better mood!
Even if Roberto was off the mark, Pique and others just patted him and told him not to care.

After all, it was still Barcelona's home court, Camp Nou. After celebrating for a while, Vallecano's players returned to their own half.

After the re-kick-off, the two sides seemed to have warmed up the atmosphere of the game because of the two goals, and they all opened up their postures, preparing for a big fight.

On Barcelona's side, Menino has been in a low-post defensive state.

With his delay, the central midfielders De Jong and Pedri can participate in the attack without distraction.

Under the instigation of the two offensive central midfielders, Alba and Roberto were promoted step by step on the two wings.

For a while, Barcelona's midfielder actually piled up nearly 7 offensive players.

Although Vallecano's 4-2-3-1 formation has strong defensive ability, his counterattack ability is not bad.

But after returning to their familiar rhythm of the game, the mentality of the Barcelona players was obviously more confident.

Unlike before, every offensive player will take the initiative to signal to his teammates for the ball after running to a suitable position.

One by one, red and blue elves interspersed back and forth in Vallecano's formation, and the ball was also spinning rapidly under their feet.

Through a lot of quick passes, Barcelona's players kept pressing Vallecano's formation.

In order to ensure that their defense line is not broken, Vallecano's players are constantly adjusting their positions.

The Barcelona players seemed patient enough, they were waiting for the fatal flaw revealed by Vallecano in the process of adjusting the dynamic balance of the formation.

Just when the two sides were attacking and defending, and the scuffle was intense, De Jong made a horizontal long pass and passed the heads of the crowd in the air.

A wonderful arc cut through the sky!
