football's number one madman

Chapter 332 Why Doesn't Messi Defend? !
"This defense...doesn't seem to be a problem?"

Even after watching the playback footage three times, the two narrators didn't find too many problems.

Van Dijk stretched out his foot from the front, grabbed the ball directly before Messi changed direction, and did not touch Messi's calf afterwards, but Messi lost his balance and fell to the ground.

"As for Li Polo...it's not surprising that he got a yellow card for a verbal conflict."

On this issue, Wang Tao and Miao Kun maintained a high degree of agreement.

Even though they didn't know it, Lee Polo didn't say any insulting words at all...

But in their inherent impression, Li Polo, even if he doesn't swear, he can still make his opponent mad!
-
"..."

Looking at the serious Manzano, Li Polo's eyes gradually turned cold.

Under his murderous eyes, Manzano couldn't help swallowing his saliva, and his huge Adam's apple visibly trembled.

Then Li Polo suddenly laughed:
"I was wrong, Mr. Referee. I shouldn't have doubted your level of law enforcement."

Manzano gave a dry laugh, and secretly heaved a sigh of relief:

"It's good that you know you're wrong, hurry up and line up the wall."
-
As Lee Polo took the initiative to show weakness, the game restarted.

Probably because the distance was too close, or maybe it was because Li Polo was standing in the crowd, Messi personally took the free kick with a bit too high arc, goalkeeper Alves didn't even stretch out his hand, just looked at The football flew directly over the crossbar.

I don't know if it was intentional or not, but the two ball boys on the left and the right threw the ball into the field almost at the same time. According to the referee, the game had to be stopped to ensure that there was only one game ball in the field.

After Alves kicked the ball out, all 11 Barcelona players had already defended in place. Valencia wanted to quickly advance to the opponent's half, but it was completely impossible and had to reorganize the positional battle.

Van Dijk crossed Jones, Jones split to Montoya, Montoya passed forward to Parejo, Parejo passed to Perez to the left.

Perez, who was pressed by Suarez, simply passed back to Van Dijk, and Van Dijk gave a kick to the left back Bernat.

Bernat glanced at Messi and decided to push the ball forward himself.

Messi stretched out his foot to block it, and he had fulfilled his defensive responsibility, so he let the left back pass.

Anyway, there are Rakitic and Rafinha behind them, one of them can stop Bernat, right?

But to his disappointment, the two teammates surnamed La failed to complete the job.

Bernal formed a small group with DePaul, Perez, and Rodrygo. The four passed quickly, almost ignoring Barcelona's midfield defense.

It wasn't until they advanced to Barcelona's big penalty area that they slowed down.

After all, seeing Javier Mascherano, the iron-blooded soul of the Argentine national team, whether it is Perez or DePaul, it is inevitable that their confidence will be shaken.

So they handed the ball to Rodrygo and let the Spanish striker take care of the finishing blow.

Rodrigo is not stupid either. His breakthrough ability is not enough for him to single out experienced old horses, and he has to rely on the cooperation of his teammates.

I saw him knock the ball to DePaul at the back side, and then go straight forward along the sidewalk.Mascherano hesitated and looked at DePaul, who had already sent a kick to the ground!
The football brushed past Marco's left leg and easily penetrated Barcelona's defense!

Rodrigo, who completed the anti-offside, dunked the ball and cut into the penalty area from the left wing before Mascherano returned to the defense!

Ter Stegen had to jump to the near post, even though... he knew that Rodrygo was very likely to fake a real pass, and he had to do it!
Fake ejaculation true pass!

Rodrigo really chose to pass the ball!
He swept the ball towards the 12-yard point near the edge of the six-yard box!

Ter Stegen could only pounce sideways in the opposite direction!
Li Polo and Pique appeared in that area almost at the same time, but the Warren striker with bright eyes was one step earlier, blocking the position with his body.

Seeing that the football was about to fly to his feet, Pique slammed into it with a heart attack!
But he seemed to be half a step too late. He originally wanted to shoot Li Polo in the upper right corner, but after being disturbed, this kick turned into a volley to the lower left corner!
Ter Stegen, who just jumped from the left to the right, was completely caught off guard!
"Whoosh!"

He could only watch the football fly across the goal line from his opposite direction!

0: 2!

Barcelona, ​​playing at home, conceded another goal in the 38th minute!
[Negative emotions from Pique, +98! 】

[Ter Stegen, +84! 】

【Javier Mascherano, +67! 】

[Messi, +48! 】

[Suarez, +112! 】

[Enrique, +105! 】

……

[Camp Nou fans, +19356! 】
-
"Javier Mascherano has actually tried his best, and Ter Stegen and Pique have no responsibility. If the teammates in the center and frontcourt could support them immediately, this goal could have been avoided..."

On Spanish television, two commentators Valdano and Salgado are criticizing Barcelona's defense.

Especially for Messi, the two Real Madrid legends criticized in different ways:

"Messi's defense is too lax, he should have posted it before."

"Although no one would expect Messi to defend desperately, at least we should slow down Bernat's advance speed and give his teammates a little time to help defend!"

"For Barcelona with Messi, they only have 10 men in defense!"

The Barcelona fans in front of the TV were so angry that they turned off the sound!
[Let Messi, the number one superstar in history, defend? 】

[You are simply insulting the sport of football! 】

[He only needs to attack, dribble, dribble, assist or score! 】

[This is the biggest charm of football! 】

[Defense?Is that the job of the ball king? 】

In the last minute of the first half, Messi, who had been quiet before, finally exerted his strength.

This was originally an attack by Valencia, but Rakitic desperately returned to the defense, and finally, with the assistance of Mascherano, broke the ball from DePaul's feet.

Rakitic quickly transferred to Rafinha. The latter did not dare to miss the opportunity. After consecutive transfers by Busquets and Iniesta, the ball was sent to Messi's feet.

Perhaps it was repeatedly deflated by Van Dijk's defense. Messi appeared on the left this time, and the Dutch handed over to Suarez to contain him.

Facing Messi's assault, Jones was somewhat nervous. He put his hands behind his back tightly to prevent being handballed, and his feet quickly followed Messi to retreat backwards, ready to steal.

But Messi's stride frequency and sense of the ball are indeed beyond Jones' grasp. The chubby football seems to be standing on the left foot of the little Argentine flea. Even if it is separated occasionally, the furthest distance will not exceed 20 centimeters. Jones After retreating nearly 15 meters in a row, he didn't find a chance to step down until he reached the edge of the restricted area!

Jones, who only joined Manchester United in the summer of 2011, has not experienced the night of the Champions League that made Ferguson tremble, but when Messi showed his strength close to the peak to force him, he suddenly faced Vidic, Ferdinand and other veterans. The helplessness of the seniors at that time empathized...

[No more withdrawals! 】

[Take another step back, it's the restricted area! 】

Jones was heartbroken, and stretched out his right foot towards the football at Messi's feet!

But with a flash in front of his eyes, such a big football disappeared out of thin air!
Out of the corner of his eye, Messi's shoulders sank, apparently about to drive the ball into the penalty area from the left!
[Van Dijk was restrained by Suarez, it is impossible to fill in for me! 】

Jones' expression instantly became extremely ferocious in the live broadcast. He used his left foot as the axis, stretched his right foot halfway, and suddenly swept over with force!
Like a prophet, Messi chose to volley with his left foot at this moment!
The football flew into the net against the goal post, but Jones' sweeping kick hit Messi's ankle at the same time!
Before the stands of the Camp Nou had time to cheer, they saw their own team doctor rushing into the field!
1: 2!

But the player they relied on the most fell under the opponent's iron hoof!

"drop!!!"
