Chapter 238

Pique slowly picked the ball out of the goal, and now the expressions on the faces of the players on both sides perfectly showed all kinds of beings.

Every player in Atletico Madrid was like a big stone that was pressed in their hearts and fell to the ground in an instant. They felt extremely happy and smiled for the first time on the court.The hero of the goal, Griezmann, became the focus of his teammates and the media. Wen Zhihao immediately threw himself on Griezmann's back, almost knocking Griezmann out of his mouth. This is the most real scene.The relationship between the two is intimate, and the atmosphere in the team is harmonious and harmonious, which is the basis for Atletico Madrid's rapid rebound in a passive situation, and it is also the epitome of Atletico Madrid's performance for most of the season.

On the Barcelona side, every player has negative emotions written on their faces.Paulinho and Mascherano bowed their heads and thought about it, while Ter Stegen looked annoyed and angry, reprimanding Pique for not keeping an eye on Griezmann, and his previous save made his opponent wonderful.As the most conspicuous superstar of this giants, Messi has helplessness written on his face, complaining to several players in the midfield, dissatisfied that he has too few opportunities to get the ball.Especially in the opening stage, if Messi took the ball more times, Atletico Madrid would be more dangerous, but the midfielder wanted to gain a sense of presence too much, and his chances were worn out, leading to the current situation.

Valverde smashed a bottle of mineral water on the ground angrily, hurling the Spanish national curse: "gilipollas" (meaning similar to sb in Spanish).As the head coach, he is very clear that this goal may completely set Atletico Madrid on the rise, making the scene difficult to control.Valverde will naturally not sit still.Just after half an hour in the first half, Barcelona made its first substitution.This time to make personnel adjustments, except for passive injury substitutions, tactical adjustments are rare, and there is only one situation that can explain it: the performance of certain players has made the head coach very dissatisfied.

"Little White" Iniesta was waiting to play on the sidelines, and everyone's first reaction was to replace Paulinho.Although he worked hard to mark Wen Zhihao for half an hour, he didn't play well on offense and defense on the whole.The loss of the ball was directly related to his mistake in stealing against Wen Zhihao in the midfield.If Valverde intends to settle accounts after the autumn, Paulinho must bear at least half of the responsibility for the conceded goal.

The fourth official slowly raised the substitution card. Paulinho looked towards the sidelines unconsciously. He was unwilling to be replaced like this. He felt that no one knew Wen Zhihao better than himself. If he was given another chance, he would definitely be able to make up for his mistakes.

However, when the camera pointed at the sign in the fourth official's hand, everyone was slightly surprised. Iniesta came on the field and replaced Paulinho, not Paulinho, but Rakitic!

Many Barcelona fans can't understand that Rakitic's half-hour performance was quite satisfactory and he didn't make too many mistakes. He can stay on the court for a while. Why did he replace him so early?
The more professional narrators pondered carefully and quickly figured out the reason.Iniesta and Rakitic generally belong to a type of technical midfielder. In comparison, Iniesta has a stronger control over the rhythm and the ability to pass the ball forward to tear through the defense.As for Paulinho, his role is specific.Wen Zhihao was still on the field, and substituting him weakened the strength of the midfielder's defense.

Rakitic looked depressed when he walked off the court.In the first game against Atletico Madrid, I still played half of the game and was not replaced until halftime.I didn't expect that I only had half an hour today.Originally, some media criticized him for not being able to play strong-for-strong dialogue games. Rakitic wanted to prove that he could not only bully weak teams, but because of a conceded goal that had little to do with him, he finally let himself pay the bill.

When Iniesta played, Barcelona’s midfield seemed to have an extra high-intelligence processor, with speed and speed, and a smooth connection between the front and the back.

Saul, who originally went up to support Wen Zhihao's attack, had to retreat to his position and participate in the press against Iniesta.Everyone knows that Iniesta is currently the strongest brain in Barcelona's midfield. You only need to cut him off. The organizational skills of Paulinho and Busquets will not pose a fatal threat to Atletico Madrid.

However, this is only on paper.He has been able to fight the world with the legendary midfielder Harvey since the Guardiola era, won the professional player's Grand Slam as a main player, and scored a lore goal in the World Cup final in South Africa.Although he is 34 years old and has entered the late stage of his career, Valverde can be sent to fight the fire without hesitation at a critical moment. How can Iniesta be so easy to deal with?
Iniesta's playing style is almost the same as Harvey's. His body is not outstanding, but his control of rhythm, passing timing and line selection all reflect the level of a master.

When Iniesta was in possession of the ball, Wen Zhihao was watching secretly not far away.It is a rare opportunity to observe the actual combat demonstration of the legendary midfielder up close.Although Wen Zhihao has heard countless praises and praises along the way, he can still recognize himself clearly.At least compared to the current midfield master who is getting older and more bewitching in possession of the ball, I still have a lot to improve.

Standing behind Iniesta, observing Iniesta's ball control rhythm and kicking habits.Wen Zhihao felt that the other party had a very special temperament.The three defensive midfielders on his side used wheel-to-wheel battles to mark and press him. Sometimes it feels like he has been pushed into a dead end, but Wen Zhihao can feel that Iniesta's ball control is still calm, with full control of the ball under his feet, and his eyes are still monitoring the audience like a camera lens.

Iniesta's ingenious passes won the Camp Nou applause, and even Atletico Madrid fans were stunned for a moment, not to mention Wen Zhihao who was closer.With his excellent golf quotient, he couldn't figure out how the opponent did it in a short time.

Iniesta's frequent passing of fairy balls made Atletico Madrid's defensive system inevitably loose. No matter how tough Atletico Madrid's defense is, facing the sharp penetration of Barcelona's offense, it is difficult to keep the goal without losing the goal, even if God blesses it.

What's more, here is Camp Nou, God tends to favor the home team more.

……

Iniesta gave Messi a textbook-like behind-the-back single-handed shot. Messi turned offside and plugged in. Facing Oblak, he lightly lobbed and flew into the dead corner.Barcelona equalized the score!This goal completely detonated the Nou Camp. The huge team flag on the stands and the breathtaking red and blue ocean made the whole stadium overlooked from the air, which was extremely spectacular.

"Iniesta is the real king, and with the omnipotent King of Camp Nou, Leo Messi, the great Barcelona can achieve any goal they want!" Catalonia TV commentary finally seized an opportunity to vent their admiration for the home team.

He Wei seemed to have no passion, and Atletico Madrid was the home team in his heart.

"The score became 1:1, and the goal is not surprising. Atletico Madrid is indeed a bit lax, and Barcelona is playing at home. It is strange that there is no goal! Now the game is less than 10 minutes, and Atletico Madrid has regained its momentum. Anything can happen."

Everything changed when Iniesta played.An old house where a treasure.Iniesta once again proved the value of a veteran who can play a decisive role at critical moments, and among Atletico Madrid's field players, there is a lack of such people.
