Xu Zhu's Successor's Football Journey

Chapter 353 The Opening of Mars Hitting Earth

The referee of this game is the famous bald referee Collina from Italy, which he voluntarily asked to enforce.

In front of the player channel on the west side of the stadium, when the players were not on the field, Collina stood there and attracted the attention of most fans.He has a barren scalp, a forehead with exposed veins, and a pair of glaring eyes. This image is easily reminiscent of some kind of marine life or from a planet outside the sky. This is what Corina has been fascinated by for ten years. The only image in our hearts.

Regrettably, Collina has become an international referee since 1995, and it has been exactly ten years this year. According to the age limit for referees stipulated by FIFA, the 45-year-old Collina will be with his international referee in June. Waving goodbye to his career, before that, of course, he will take the initiative to officiate some top games to end his refereeing career, and this battle of the century at Camp Nou must be a classic, and Collina will not miss it.

At this time, Collina looked down at his watch, then raised his head to stare at those terrifying eyes, and whistled lightly, indicating that the players of the two teams can start to enter the field.

Wang Li followed Chelsea starters out of the player tunnel and entered the Camp Nou. At this time, the huge stadium was already crowded with people, most of them were Barcelona fans. There were many slogans and banners in the stands cheering for Barcelona. , and some radical Catalan fans labeled Chelsea as satirical, such as 'traitor, get out of the Nou Camp' and so on.

However, perhaps these Catalans don’t know Wang Li at all. Anyway, there are very few slogans about Wang Li in the fans’ stands. This aspect reflects Ronaldinho’s status in the hearts of fans. Although the media The duel between the two was hyped vigorously, but in fact, fans did not believe that Wang Li, who was only 18 years old, could beat the world footballer. On the other hand, it was Wang Li's influence, although almost everyone in England knew him Everyone knows, but in Spain, his influence is not worth these fans turning their focus to him——
Perhaps there is another reason, these Catalan fans do not want to admit that he has the same strength as Ronaldinho.

At this time, Wang Li, who had just walked into the stadium and lined up with the team, heard the commentator at the Camp Nou stadium introduce the players one by one.

"Deco!!!"

There was a sudden burst of enthusiastic shouting from the fans. They used this way to express their love for Deco. Obviously, this old player of Mourinho conquered many Barcelona in just over half a season. The heart of the fans.

"Ronaldinho!!!"

With the shout of the on-site commentator, almost all the Barcelona fans in the audience shouted neatly, this is the influence of the World Footballer.To be sure, over the past two years, Ronaldinho's popularity in Barcelona is by no means comparable to that of ordinary players. He uses the Brazilian samba-style gorgeous footwork, continuous attack and stable performance, Has conquered all Barcelona fans! !At the Nou Camp, he is the unique king! !
Hearing the voice in his ear, Wang Li didn't show any cowardice, but instead smiled evilly in his heart.Imagine if you used your feet to conquer the world's most magnificent stadium in front of nearly 10 Barcelona, ​​that feeling is really exciting! !

Of course, this has become a blow to Barcelona fans.

After the players of the two teams stood up, with Collina's whistle, the game finally started amidst everyone's expectations.

Barcelona kicked off first. Their players wore a traditional Barcelona jersey today. The large red and blue stripes represent the will and spirit of Barcelona. Today, these players seem to be in good spirits. Before the game, Ronaldini O'Neill even declared that 'all the Premier League teams have lost', on the other hand, it also showed the confidence of the Barcelona players in this game.

It was just the beginning of the game, and the game on the field was already extremely fierce. The two teams fought around the center line, but despite several crises, the ball was still at the feet of the Barcelona players, which even made defender William Garcia Lars wanted to go forward, but he was held back by John Terry. Turning his head and looking at the captain's eyes, Gallas also understood that the opponent is Barcelona now, and the most important thing in their territory is Hold your defense.

Before the game, Rijkaard had been worried that the winning streak of Barcelona, ​​the midfielder would be slack and be used by Chelsea, but after more than 1 minute of fighting, the football was still at the feet of the Barcelona players, which made Rijkaard long A long sigh of relief, at least facing Chelsea, the Barcelona players were not too careless.

Barcelona's football style is very similar to that of the Spanish national team, and it is in fact the same. It should be said that Barcelona's style has seriously affected the Spanish team, because half of the main lineup of the Spanish national team in each world is from Barcelona. This style is to continuously invert and pull the opponent's defense line in the backcourt to create opportunities for one's own side and strive for a sure hit.

And this is different from Juventus, the "Old Lady" team. The "Old Lady" approach is to master the rhythm, that is to say, they are good at using the change between rhythms to make the opponent The purpose of panic, and the inverted kick is more to prepare for a fast attack, but Barcelona's inverted kick is as fast as the offensive rhythm, and they are better at coordination and technology.

This is the difference between a traditional Italian style and a Spanish style influenced by South America.

At this time, almost all the fans in the stadium were cheering for Barcelona, ​​and the Blues with only a few thousand people, their shouts were as fragile as a drop in the ocean.

Wang Li was also wandering in the frontcourt. When he saw the football passed to the opponent's No. 12 Van Bront Horst, he immediately approached Ter Horst unconsciously, wanting to seize the opportunity to steal the ball and counterattack.

However, Barcelona's passing frequency is very fast, and the general short-distance cooperation is almost a one-kick pass. After Van Bronthorst got the ball, he only took a step forward and kicked the ball to Marl. Quez, this kind of cooperation seems to be in the bones, and even left Wang Li behind, and the latter's running also dodged Drogba's steals. This efficient cooperation can't help but make Wang Li feel Some weak.

However, Chelsea's midfielders are very capable. As soon as Marquez got the ball, Thiago Mendes, who started the game, forced him over. During the run, he also bet on Marquez And most of the passing routes in the frontcourt, which made the latter a little hurried. He turned his head and looked, but found that the black-haired boy with the number 21 of the opponent was also pressing from behind, so he immediately drove the ball to the back field.

Wang Li and Mendes, who failed to double-team, looked at each other helplessly, turned their heads and went to grab the ball again.

At the beginning of Chelsea's game, most people couldn't adapt to Barcelona's ball-controlling style of play. Although Mourinho carefully explained to them the tactics and style that Barcelona is good at using before the game, after all, written knowledge It was different from a real match. Fortunately, there was John Terry's command in the backcourt and Wang Li's pressure in the frontcourt, so that the formation did not become chaotic.

The football has been under the control of the Barcelona players. After more than a minute, they launched an attack after two quick passes. At this time, the voices of the fans in the audience became more violent.

On the 5th, Puyol inserted into the center line and cooperated with the winger Albertini to make a two-footed short pass to let the ball go straight to the outside of Chelsea. Then Albertini made a pass before Makelele stepped forward to grab the ball. It was given to Deco in the middle, who missed the ball and directly past Lampard's steal, and the ball went to Ronaldinho's feet.

As early as the 2002 World Cup in Korea and Japan, Ronaldinho had already proved his ability. After transferring from Paris Saint-Germain to Barcelona, ​​he became the stable attacking midfielder of this world-class giant team. The core of the offense, the engine of the whole game, as a midfielder, Ronaldinho makes the fans never forget his gorgeous skills with a serious Brazilian style, as well as his precise passing ability. It seems that these are secondary, and the ability to control the audience is the most important.

To use a professional term, it is the overall situation.

In the game, Ronaldinho's overall view is definitely the top in the world, at least the current Wang Li is far behind.

At the moment Ronaldinho received the ball, the cheers of the fans suddenly reached a high level, as if accepting this kind of enthusiastic cheers, Ronaldinho flicked his left foot with a juggling heel With one pad, the football flew directly into Chelsea's penalty area.

Samuel Eto'o! ! !
The big black man who won the African Footballer of the Year in 2003 and 2004, joined Barcelona at the beginning of this season, but he has now become a stable main player.In the last summer, he had the opportunity to join Chelsea, and he himself wanted to try in the Premier League, but Mourinho gave up on him and chose Didier Drogba. Now he is facing Chelsea and Drogba on the field Ba, he held back a lot of energy in his heart and wanted to prove to the world that he was better than Drogba! !
The game just started, and the opportunity came. At this time, Chelsea captain John Terry blocked Eto'o's position to prevent him from getting the ball, but Eto'o unloaded the ball with his back heel. Bring it to the front, turn to win and volley directly! !

"Eto'o, shoot!!!"

The point where Eto'o shot was only about 7 meters away from the goal. Petr Cech, who was starting in front of the goal, was very nervous. He came here, but at the next moment, he let out a long breath in his heart.

John Terry fell in the path of the football and blocked the shot with his body.

This time, even the Barcelona fans in the audience couldn't help giving Terry a thumbs up. This Chelsea defender is definitely not touted. He can be selected into the best team in Europe in almost every month. His strength, but also because of his "desperate Saburo"-like will on the court! !

The football was directly blocked out of the penalty area by Terry's body, and Paul Ferreira, who was next to him, hurried over to help Terry up to see what was going on with him.

"Look at the good man, what are you doing!!"

What the Portuguese defender didn't expect was that Terry stood up and didn't thank him, but yelled at him directly.

In fact, the same is true. The game did not end. After the football popped out of the penalty area, it still snatched the Barcelona players to their feet.However, Chelsea is by no means a soft persimmon. After the forward Giuly grabbed the ball, Lampard immediately pushed back. During the fight, Giuly inadvertently took the ball out of the sideline.

In less than 3 minutes of the opening, Barcelona's first attack caused Chelsea to break out in a cold sweat. Wang Li, who was in the frontcourt, watched Barcelona's attack and was inexplicably excited. For him, this kind of opponent It's interesting to win, and this is the battlefield where you can really test yourself.

While the Barcelona fans in the auditorium were still engrossed in the attack just now, Thiago Mendes was already standing on the sideline and ready to serve the sideline kick. However, at this moment, two Barcelona players pushed forward. And other Barcelona players also stared at the Chelsea players who could catch the ball, which made Mendes a little at a loss, he didn't know who to throw it to.

While Mendes was still looking for someone, Wang Li, who had been entangled by Barcelona players about 10 meters in front of him, frowned and shouted: "F..., pass it here!!"

In fact, as the absolute main force of Chelsea, Wang Li and Mendes are by no means all the same. He usually cooperates very little with this Portuguese midfielder in games, so he doesn't know Mendes very well. Des should know himself very well, after all, many of Chelsea's offensive tactics are built around him.But now, it seems that Mendes glanced at him but didn't pass the ball. Wang Li couldn't help but swear and was about to burst out. Fortunately, he held back. A free yellow ticket.

When Thiago Mendes heard Wang Li's voice, he didn't care about his tone at all, and just threw the ball over. In his opinion, this black-haired kid is the last person in the Chelsea team to provoke, because he not only It will only make him untenable in the locker room, and even whether he can stay at Chelsea in the summer is a deep suspense-although he did not perform well at Chelsea, he does not want to leave this club that can earn a lot of money. , and always a winning club.

In fact, according to the judgment of normal players, Wang Li's point just now was not good, because Deke stopped in front of Wang Li.

But just as the Chelsea players imagined, Wang Li stepped up and walked in front of Deco in an instant. While Deco was dumbfounded, he had already caught the ball and walked away.

There is no need for the captain's command at all. All Barcelona players know that Chelsea's most threatening player is definitely the No. 21 black-haired boy who is dribbling the ball. So, seeing Wang Li dribbling forward, they immediately returned to defense. Albertini and Marquez also ran towards Wang Li.

At this time, the Barcelona players were desperately running towards their own half, while Chelsea's offensive players quickly inserted into the Barcelona half. Wang Li dribbled the ball from the side, and only Joe Cole and Lampard were in the middle. Just two people.

From here we can see the difference in offensive styles between Chelsea and Barcelona. Barcelona is a total attack and total defense, while Chelsea is a balance of offense and defense. Of course, both have advantages and disadvantages.

Now, the disadvantages of both sides are reflected. Since Chelsea is not all-out attack and full-defense, many backcourt players are not good at attacking, so Wang Li has many choices. He can only take the ball by himself or pass it to the nearest Joe Cole, but it is difficult to pass to Lampard.

The same is true for Barcelona. Due to the too much offensive force invested just now, they have not been able to return to the defense when Mendes sent a sideline kick. It is only a few seconds away from now. It was chaotic, and even many players were still changing positions, and the temporary rear adjustment ability was poor.

However, Chelsea's disadvantage did not appear too serious. Wang Li's excellent personal ability has made up for this very well. He didn't have to worry about the choice, and he didn't have to think too much. Cole turned to take Limbo Microwave and passed the defense of Albertini and Marquez in a flash.

The Barcelona duo were caught off guard by the way they didn't know whether to go for the ball or chase Wang Li back, but Joe Cole's return kick helped them make the choice and, as it turned out, at Chelsea In addition to Robben and Duff, Joe Cole and Wang Li are the most tacit understanding.

Wang Li and Joe Cole's 2-over-2 cooperation directly penetrated the defense of Barcelona's side. After Wang Li received the ball, he ignored the two men who were following behind and directly dribbled the ball inward to look for an opportunity.This way of dribbling, he learned from Alkin Robben. The direct and large-angle dribbling transfer not only makes it difficult for the opposing player to adapt, but also makes it easy for him to be in the most appropriate position and run with the ball. Come on, there will definitely be more chances to shoot.

In fact, this is also the case. Albertini and Marquez behind Wang Li and Puyol in front of him were directly left behind by his dribbling method. Just glanced at Barcelona's goal, and in the running rhythm, throwing off his right foot was a big hit! !

This unexpected shot made the Barcelona defenders next to him horrified, and the eyes of the audience all looked at the Barcelona goal in unison.

At this time, the Barcelona goalkeeper Valdez standing in front of the goal was still at a loss. Under the blocking of the defender, he had no idea that the football was flying towards the goal.

"Boom!!"

With a muffled sound, the goal post saves Barcelona! !
The football hit the crossbar on the right and directly popped off the bottom line. The Barcelona fans in the audience breathed a sigh of relief. After reflecting, they all looked up at the black-haired man on the field who was running back with his hands on his head in annoyance. boy.

fear! !

Horrified! !
Danger! !
They didn't know how to describe this attack, but Wang Li's performance let them know that the strength of the young black-haired boy with the most scoring efficiency in the Premier League and even the world was not praised by the English media. It can be seen from the second attack that he almost picked out half of Barcelona's defense line by himself. During the attack, he only cooperated with his teammates once. Efficiency is unmatched——
Not even our players.

As soon as this idea came up, the Barcelona fans drove him out of their minds. Now the most important thing is to build up the confidence of the hard-working players on the field, not to praise the strength of the opponent's players.

Only 4 minutes into the game, Barcelona played a steady attack, threatening Chelsea's goal, and Wang Li's quick counterattack ended with a shot at the post. Judging from the formation, the two teams played evenly.

The game was just as the media imagined before the game. The start showed the momentum of "Mars hitting the earth", which made everyone in the audience look forward to the next game even more.
