I brush achievements in football

Even if Enrique is a fool, he should have reacted by this time.

What's more, Enrique is not a fool. Although he is not a top coach, he is a reliable and qualified head coach.

So now he has come to his senses, Southampton's previous goal was not an accident, it was not because they were under pressure, it was not because he was in a bad state, but he was focused on defensive counterattack!

It’s been more than 30 minutes since the game, and Barcelona’s possession of the ball has occupied more than 70.00%. However, in terms of the number of shots, both sides are almost the same. Southampton has four shots and Barcelona has five shots, but Southampton scored two goals in four shots. , only one of Barcelona's five shots hit the goal frame!

This is the difference.

But now, Barcelona, ​​which is two goals behind, is completely stuck.

Two goals behind, even if it is an away game, it is a big disadvantage.

But now continue to attack with the ball?They may not be able to withstand Southampton's counterattack.

No matter what you think, there is only one way at this time.

Continue to attack and try to score him two goals in the away game.

It is not advisable to recover the defense. First, it is difficult to return two goals to the Nou Camp. Second, even if the defense is recovered, can it withstand Southampton's offense?

Southampton's offense itself has made Barcelona quite fearful, and possession of the ball can also make Southampton's offense a little less.

So under his command, the Barcelona players continued to attack.

Southampton continued to defend and counterattack.

Soon, they almost scored again through a counterattack. After receiving a pass from Du Yue, Dembele broke through from the right and passed back. Prouse followed up and shot the goal immediately in the penalty area. Unfortunately, this shot Under the interference of the opponent, it went above the crossbar and failed to score a goal.

The Southampton fans in the stands let out a sigh. In their opinion, if the goal is scored, the game can be over.

Barcelona quickly launched an attack. Mathieu stepped forward to assist and then crossed into the penalty area. Suarez grabbed the header between the two tall central defenders. Unfortunately, under the interference of Van Dijk, the ball missed the post. .

Suarez waved his arm regretfully, and the Southampton fans clapped their hands in a complicated way. Suarez gave Southampton two of the best three years of his performance, and Southampton fans couldn't possibly Will forget about this.

Du Yue also had a shot before the end of the first half, but it was saved by Ter Stegen, which made Du Yue very regretful. Now he has scored ten goals in the Champions League, only one less than Messi Ronaldo has scored a lot fewer goals in the group stage this year. So far, he has only five goals. If he can score a few more in face-to-face games, it is not impossible to suppress Messi and become the top scorer in the Champions League possible things.

It is a beautiful thing to think about the two top scorers in the Premier League and the Champions League by one person.

However, in this game, Barcelona was very strict with him, and he also focused more on attracting the opponent's attention, allowing the two wingers to get more opportunities. This tactical effect is very good.

The more the situation is like this, the more rare this opportunity is, but it's a pity that I missed it.

This made Du Yue begin to feel that although he scored a lot of goals this season, it was mainly due to tactical support, and he was still a little weaker in the ability to seize opportunities and score goals in small spaces.

So at this time, I have to be more cautious, and I must seize the opportunities I can seize. After the season is over, I have to ask the boss to see if I have any areas to strengthen.

Just when Du Yue was thinking this way, the referee blew the whistle to end the first half. According to the statistics in the first half, Southampton had only 30.00% possession of the ball, but they hit the ball five times. Within the scope of the goal frame, Barcelona only once!

Southampton fully interprets the word efficiency.

"Very good. In the first half of the game, we performed quite well and fully implemented our tactical goals! In the second half, we will continue to make persistent efforts and continue to use defensive counterattacks to let them know what our sharp offense is!"

The Southampton players also waved their fists and shouted. The first half of the game seemed aggrieved, but they played heartily in the counterattack!

For Southampton, who is used to pressing the offense, this feeling is not bad.

"In the second half, Barcelona will attack, but they will not become more tenacious... This is not the style of Barcelona, ​​​​they will be a little bit overwhelmed in the second half, more firm in their possession tactics, we kill time with them That's enough." Ji Ya finally said.

Here's what he has to say about Barcelona.

This kind of evaluation is not high, but the Southampton players believe in their head coach. Since Ji Ya said this kind of evaluation, it must be true.

In the second half, the tactics of defensive counterattack were more resolutely implemented.

But at the moment in the locker room of the visiting team, Enrique looked at his players helplessly.

Although he is also a Barcelona star, he has never really established his prestige in the past three years of coaching the team.

Guardiola's imprint on this team is too deep. No matter how good his coaching performance is, he will be considered to be in the light of Guardiola. What's more, although his coaching performance is good, he has not reached the level of Guardiola. In terms of tactics, they basically follow Guardiola's tactics-this is what any sensible head coach will do.

So under the current circumstances, with Barcelona facing difficulties, Enrique found that he couldn't jump out of Guardiola's ball possession tactics, and couldn't solve the current problem.

When Barcelona has been relying on something that can no longer be relied on, it is of course a normal thing to be lost.

If you let them play fast break without possession of the ball, they will definitely be confused.

As for giving the ball to Messi or Neymar, let them toss, and others cooperate, which is contrary to Barcelona's long-standing tactics, and there will definitely not be any good results.

This situation is a dilemma.

In a dilemma, the only thing we can do is to attack reluctantly, give full play to their characteristics and abilities, find ways to use the ball to attack, score enough goals, and at least get a relatively satisfactory result.

If there are goals in the away game and only one goal is lost, Southampton will not dare to continue to use defensive counterattack tactics in the away game.

After all, the foundation of defensive counterattack is very fragile, a ball is not enough to support, and the risk is too much.

But if Southampton wins a few more, then they can have enough confidence to defend and counterattack.
