Chapter 565 Laporta's Complaint

Guardiola naturally wouldn't believe Hugo's words, but this is not important, the important thing is that Hugo himself believes it.

Of course Guardiola did not agree to Hugo's invitation. He has already been used as a knife, and of course he will not continue to be a part of Laporta's embarrassment.

Fortunately, the tea is cold. After all, Guardiola is in the past tense. It is not surprising when he appears in the stands, and he does not attract much attention. You must know that Lombardo is also invited, and there are several others. A veteran who played for Trapani.

Platini also came to the scene today, and he was also invited by Hugo. Since he came, Hugo invited Laporta to sit together.

It's hard for Laporta to refuse. After all, I still have to give Platini some face. This is the boss of UEFA. Although Barcelona is the backbone of G14, there must be work in it!

Sit down politely to each other. Players from both sides of the stadium have already played. The Trapani Stadium is actually a professional football field, and the stands are very close to the stadium.

When it was rebuilt here, because it is an old city and the place is small, the audience seats are very close. This is also the reason why the security measures of the stadium have always been relatively strict.

Trapani is also quite kind. Of the 2000 tickets, there are about [-] distributed to Barcelona, ​​which is in short supply. Because Barcelona has World Footballer Ronaldinho, their tactics are offensive football, which is very It is beautiful and attracts countless fans, so there are also many fans who want tickets.

The visiting team's fan stand was full of Barcelona fans, and they obviously came prepared, took a lot of flags, and formed a good momentum.

The away game against Liverpool was Rijkaard's 200th game in charge of Barcelona. Due to the 0-2 loss at home in the first leg, Barcelona must score at least two goals at the Trapani Stadium in this game to be able to qualify. Rijkaard can only entertain his milestone night by comforting the players.

The biggest suspense at present is whether Rijkaard will continue to stick to the 3-back style of play. In the game against Zaragoza, Barcelona played 343 similar to 3133, with a full-time midfielder and more aggressiveness. In the game against Sevilla, Barcelona's 4 midfielders were diamond-shaped, and the two full-backs retreated to the full-back position when defending, which was relatively more defensive, but no matter what kind of change, compared to Barcelona's previous practice 433 is a breakthrough.

When participating in the press conference, Harvey hinted that the possibility of 343 appearing at Anfield is extremely high: "Because we have to attack."

In fact, Rijkaard sent a 443 formation in this game. Eto'o did not play temporarily in the last round, which caused speculation from the outside media. But in fact, Eto'o was injured during the warm-up and played against Seville. He made a comeback in the Asian game and he also entered the starting lineup in this game.

Goalkeeper: Valdes;
Defenders: Thuram, Marcos, Puyol, Oleg;

Midfielders: Xavi, Iniesta, Deco;
Forwards: Giuly, Eto'o, Ronaldinho

The formation is dead and the position is alive. It is called 433, but there are variables. Oleg can step forward and become a full-back. On the other side is Iniesta. Xavi and Deco can sit in the middle.

The bad thing about their formation and staffing is that they don't have a serious midfielder. Deco was indeed transformed into a midfielder after he came to Barcelona, ​​but his interception ability is average. What Rijkaard relies on is Control, their midfield holding ability and organizational ability are very strong. They have proved in previous games that they can rely on control to deal with the opponent's tough midfield.

Barcelona certainly hope that their opponents can have a head-to-head confrontation with them, but this is a fantasy after all, and their opponent is Ranieri.

"I think the most important thing for us is to not concede a goal! Last leg we didn't concede a goal at Camp Nou, that was important and I'm happy, and I hope we can do the same in the second leg. I want to Tell everyone that defense is the key thing." Despite the psychological stimulation of Barcelona, ​​​​who is Ranieri, he is not so stupid, and he insisted on the team's thinking in the pre-match press conference.

He has also made a lot of changes in the formation of this game, mainly in the frontcourt.

Goalkeeper: Kameni;

Defenders: Maicon, Barzagli, Samuel, Evra;

Midfielders: Mascherano, Essien, Ballack
Forwards: Di Maria, Adriano, Messi

Neither Tony nor Klose on the front line got a chance to play in this game. Why? !Because Adriano's ability to fight alone is very strong, so he squeezed out their position.

Before the game, Toni and Klose had already communicated with Ranieri, and they were unhappy. From a tactical point of view, Ranieri's choice was not wrong, and the two could only swallow their anger and accept it.

Di Maria also entered the starting lineup because of the same advantage. He is only 19 years old, but now he has a very rare starting opportunity, and it is against Barcelona, ​​so he was a little nervous before the game.

Messi, who was slightly older than him, comforted Di Maria, "You have to relax. The coach chose you because he saw your strengths. You just need to play to your strengths!"

Rijkaard looked at the Trapani players on the field and knew that the old guy Ranieri was going to defend to the death. If it was him, he would not do such a thing, even if he was only five goals ahead , He will still let his team attack, which is a different tactical concept.

Rijkaard is not an offensive madman like Zeman. He has an offensive concept, but he must combine the offensive concept with the defensive concept. How to replace defense with offense is his focus, and he does not care about his head. He won't do it.

Faced with such a formation, Rijkaard can only express helplessness. Most Italian coaches are like this, and there are not many tactical ideas that tend to attack.

Strictly speaking, Ranieri is not a conservative, he just made the most favorable choice in this situation.

The game started quickly, there was nothing to say, all the tactical practices were expected, Barcelona took possession of the ball effortlessly on the pitch, Trapani set the bus.

Less than 2 minutes after Barcelona's start, Eto'o gave Trapani a blow from the outside of the penalty area. His low shot was very powerful and brushed the post to get out of the bottom line!

"Wow!" The fans all screamed, as if they felt threatened.

Hugo "cut"!
He waved his hand and let out a sneer, very disdainful!
According to his understanding of Kameni and the positioning of the defensive players, the possibility of Eto'o scoring this goal is zero, regardless of the refraction and change of direction.

That's why he was a little disdainful, and a group of bumpkins made a fuss!
Laporta also made a sound of regret, and turned to look at Hugo. Hugo gave Laporta a very rude look, and signaled to wait and see!
The story after that was not as beautiful as Laporta thought. The world footballer ran away, the African footballer ran away, and the La Masia girl ran away... These are all in fantasy. The actual situation is that Barcelona needs space, but it is especially Lapani blocked the space so deadly!

Barcelona's players showed a better state than the previous game, but the problem is that Trapani's defensive system has always been well organized, they need space, all kinds of strong, Trapani has always put Barcelona's Players rush to the sidewalk!

Fouls, disputes... In short, Barcelona didn't have much chance. Facts have proved that they are as strong as they are afraid of the iron barrel, especially when they meet Trapani's level.

But Hugo knew in his heart that Barcelona had always been very careful, and they didn't use a lot of sudden attacks. They were worried about Trapani's counterattack, so possession of the ball was the main method.

VIP Xilaporta can't stand it, the team has no shots, let alone goals, so he keeps complaining to Platini and Hugo about fouls, bus tactics, it's hard to believe that this person is a lawyer .
