Liverpool are four goals ahead of Barcelona. Is there any chance for Barcelona now?
They have to score four goals less at Camp Nou to get the game back to the starting point, which is too difficult! It’s too difficult!
After the celebration, the Liverpool people walked towards the backcourt with their heads held high, and Gerrard waved his arms in the direction of the stands where the visiting fans were, hoping that the fans would cheer for them even more.
Of course, the fans of the Red Army will not be stingy. They are waving flags, holding up slogans and doing their best to shout the name of Liverpool floating in Camp Nou.
Guardiola’s face is dignified, and he sighs in his heart.
He did make plans for Qin Xiong, but it is difficult to be perfect. Giving Qin Xiong a chance may cause great disaster.
And he also lamented the bad luck.
Who would have thought that Reina’s bigfooted clearance ball directly sent the ball to Qin Xiong’s square and became a fatal counterattack by Liverpool?
This allows Barcelona to defend the frontcourt without harassment and delay the backcourt. No!
It can be said that Liverpool is so lucky!
At other times, it is difficult for Liverpool to counterattack with such horrible efficiency.
After all, Barcelona also strengthened the counterattack in the middle and front court to undermine Liverpool’s counterattack
Coleman clenched his fist and waved it twice, then pressed his hands against the players on the court.
It means keeping the players calm and restrained.
There’s still a long way to go in the game. Don’t underestimate Barcelona. Once Liverpool relax, let alone score a few goals in 60 or 70 minutes. Maybe give them 20 minutes to score four goals!
Barcelona people look almost the same, and everyone is ready to cross the rubicon!
After the resumption of the game, Barcelona further strengthened the oppression of the front court.
They need to constantly put pressure on Liverpool and solve defensive problems at the same time, and their thinking has changed.
We can’t expect the backcourt defense to contain Qin Xiong, but start from the source of Liverpool’s counterattack. Then Qin Xiong Torres will naturally not get a chance to play in the frontcourt or will not have a particularly good opportunity to facilitate the backcourt defense to contain Liverpool’s counterattack.
Harvey Ibrahimovic, Iniesta, Yaya Toure will take the initiative to grab the ball in the frontcourt and keep an eye on Gerald Alonso.
These two men are the main source of the Red Army’s counterattack, and letting them control the ball smoothly can greatly reduce the threat of Liverpool’s counterattack.
This defensive change in Barcelona has made them receive good results and also allowed Barcelona to better control the situation.
The trend of the game fell to Barcelona in a scene that could not be directly observed by the naked eye.
[The first volume of the sword has not been unsheathed, and it has become the hope of 1149]
Barcelona’s adjustment caught Liverpool off guard.
Guardiola’s confidence in the team was rekindled with a little peace of mind on the sidelines.
After constantly trying to limit Liverpool’s counterattack, it seems that the correct password has finally been found.
Liverpool’s body is a tight defensive formation, and the backcourt is tight. When Barcelona is more oppressive and takes targeted countergrab, it is difficult for Gerrard or Alonso to accurately send the ball to Qin Xiong or Torres’ feet.
A slight deviation of the ball will lead to a different result.
Qin Xiong Torres stayed in the center and frontcourt for a long time, but he couldn’t wait for his teammates to deliver a good chance. They ran the ball frequently, but Barcelona’s center and backcourt defenders also adjusted their positions with the team to form a joint defense, which made Qin Xiong Torres seem to be running in a cage, but it was difficult to find freedom.
Barcelona kept shooting to threaten Liverpool’s goal.
In the 23 rd minute of the game, Messi ran horizontally in front of the penalty area and caught Yaya Toure’s ball. He didn’t stop and volleyed the football directly off the goal.
Three minutes later, Ibrahimovic hit the wall in front of the restricted area and cooperated with Iniesta, then inserted and grabbed the shot and hit the nearangle shot, which was blocked by Reina, who threw it away.
When the 32nd minute of the game came, Yaya Toure suddenly cut in front of the restricted area. He entered the Liverpool defensive fortress like a tank, and then he squeezed Lucas Harvey with his big body and sent the ball to his feet.
Yaya Toure again resisted Alonso and blocked the ball obliquely to the left rib of the penalty area.
Iniesta put forward behind Johnson and cut into the penalty area close to the baseline. He swept the ball directly to the back of the goal after receiving the oblique plug from Yaya Toure.
Carragher held Ibrahimovic when the football rolled over the goal and failed to make Ibrahimovic form a point in front of the goal
However, it was too late for Skrtel to try to shovel the ball out of the baseline at the back of the goal. He watched the football slip by his eyes and his toes almost reached it.
Aurelio lost to Messi in the speed of the fight. After all, he wanted to turn around, and Messi’s direct sprint speed was comparable.
Messi neatly pushed the ball into the goal with his left foot against Liverpool!
Camp Nou finally heard a passionate cry for a long time.
Barcelona fans seem to see hope after seeing Messi break the door!
Guardiola also nodded violently on the sidelines, then applauded and told the players to return to the half court to prepare the ball.
Messi rushed into the goal after scoring, and his expression was always calm. It seems that scoring didn’t bring him joy, because now Barcelona is racing against time!
Messi! Messi Barcelona pulled back a goal! Assist from Iniesta
Barcelona seems to have found a way to conquer Liverpool’s defensive fortress, that is Yaya Toure. He is the strongest physical opponent among Barcelona midfielders. He can hold the ball when he enters the frontcourt. Liverpool players can fight against the wind, and then he can make a good goal to continue Barcelona’s attack!
That’s the goal. Yaya Toure gave Iniesta a beautiful goal. That’s why Iniesta assisted Messi to score easily!
It is true that Guardiola still has an idea about the tactical arrangement of this game, and Yaya Toure is indeed a key link.
After solving the defense in Barcelona, the attack can play the expected effect!
Liverpool’s people feel awkward, and so does Coleman.
After Gerrard Alonso was restrained, Torres Qin Xiong couldn’t get support in the frontcourt, so Liverpool’s attack was useless!
Liverpool players communicated with each other before the ball.
Qin Xiong Alonso and Steven Gerrard were together. Steven Gerrard suggested, How about my seat near the front? There will be more in midfield.
Alonso shook his head and said, In that case, the midfield may be completely out of power. Today is very different from a match.
His speech made Qin Xiong nod in agreement.
Compared with a game in Barcelona today, the hardness of the midfield is definitely a level higher.
Once Gerrard’s midfield confrontation is hard, it is very likely that Barcelona will dominate. At that time, it may not even have a chance to counterattack, but it will be suppressed by Barcelona!
After thinking about it, Qin Xiong said, Let’s change our thinking and try not to deliberately pursue the ground ball for a walk.
In normal times, Qin Xiong’s proposal will not be adopted by everyone, because the ground ball is more accurate and it can make it easier for the offensive players to handle the ball.
But in today’s competition environment, maybe the high ball will have a better effect if it is held high and hit high.
Because even though Barcelona’s defenders in the backcourt are blocking Qin Xiong and Torres, after all, Barcelona will attack the backcourt with a small number of defenders, and both Torres and Qin Xiong have highspeed balls. First of all, there is an uncertain probability of success in fighting for the landing point
Gerald Alonso nodded in agreement.
Liverpool adjusted themselves and rescored.
