Chapter 222 Offense is the best defense

After scoring the goal, Barcelona was even more aggressive. It seemed that they wanted to score another goal before the end of the first half. If they could reduce the point difference to two goals, then the second half could really come back.

When the referee blew the whistle at the end of the first half, it could be seen that every Barcelona player ran off the field with their heads held high. They seemed eager to start the halftime break earlier and then listen to the head coach's adjustments in the locker room.

In other words, they can't wait to skip the intermission again, just like overtime, end the first half, switch venues directly, and start the second half of the game.

Messi, Suarez, and Pedro Trident walked down while covering their mouths with their hands, obviously talking about something.

"...They may be summing up the experience and lessons of the first half so that they can score better in the second half. To be honest, the connection between the three people in the first half was not enough. If they can be closer in the second half, they will definitely be able to score against Atletico Madrid. pose a greater threat..."

Jose Maria was feeding Atletico Madrid fans reassurance: "Although Barcelona scored a goal, we still have a gap of three goals with them. I believe that with Atletico Madrid's defensive ability, it will not be so easy. Let Barcelona score three goals in a row in the second half. So don’t worry, play steadily in the second half, first solidify the defense, and then wait for an opportunity to counterattack, maybe you can steal a goal from them?”

Both sides are playing their own wishful thinking.

※※※

The intermission passed quickly, players from both sides returned to the court, and the second half of the game was about to begin.

Judging from the close-up shots of the TV broadcast, both Barcelona players and Atletico Madrid players seemed confident, as if they felt that they would definitely be the winner.

The singing at the Nou Camp Stadium has never stopped since the start of the game. Even during the intermission, the Barcelona fans seemed to be having a concert in the stands, singing one song after another non-stop.

Because of the goal in the first half, Barcelona fans saw hope.

After the start of the second half, Barcelona's offensive is still as fierce as the first half. Obviously, Enrique gave them an order during the intermission, requiring them to attack at the beginning of the second half, and strive to score goals at the beginning of the second half.

If successful, Barcelona will have plenty of time, and with high morale, there is a high chance of scoring again in a short period of time. At that time, the situation will completely fall to Barcelona, ​​and Atletico Madrid will fall into a comprehensive passive.

Diego Simeone is also very clear, so he repeatedly emphasized this point to his players during the intermission-in the first ten minutes of the second half, we must defend firmly, improve our concentration, and don't be distracted. Withstood Barcelona's offensive.

We played five minutes in the second half, and that's true. Barcelona bombed around Atletico Madrid's goal. Even central defenders Pique and Mascherano have already mentioned the center line position, which looks like a midfielder...

The Barcelona fans in the stands cheered louder and louder.

A storm has formed over the Nou Camp, vowing to completely destroy Atletico Madrid.

But at this moment, Atletico Madrid launched a counterattack from the backcourt.

Gao Zheng took the ball and rushed towards Barcelona's penalty area. Pique came up to defend. Gao Zheng didn't entangle him too much. Instead, he passed the football to Griezmann. He cut and ran towards Barcelona's penalty area. .

Pique didn't think that Gao Zheng was no longer a threat because he passed the football, but continued to follow him closely. He has already suffered from Gao Zheng several times, if he doesn't have a long memory, then he has suffered so much for nothing.

Although Pique was following him, Gao Zheng raised his arms high when he was going forward, signaling Griezmann to pass the ball to him.

Facing Mascherano's defense, Griezmann can indeed only pass the ball.

Although he didn't know how Gao Zheng would get rid of Pique's defense,

But as long as Gao Zheng raises his hand to ask him for the ball, he will pass the football. This is his trust in Gao Zheng.

Instead of passing the football to Gao Zheng's feet, he passed the ball over the header, letting the football pass Pique's head and chase Gao Zheng in front of him.

While running, Gao Zheng looked back to observe where the football landed.

Pique directly clamped Gao Zheng's arm with his arm, interfering with him and preventing him from getting the ball easily.

When the football flew over, the two were still entangled, and Gao Zheng had no room or chance to get the ball.

"Pique entangled Gao!" The Catalan commentator said excitedly.

In fact, Pique's defensive action is suspected of fouling. If Gao Zheng falls to the ground, the referee may blow his whistle.

But Gao Zheng didn't do that, because it was a matter of probability. It didn't mean that if he fell down, the referee would call Pique a foul. After all, this is Barcelona's home court, and the referee will be extra cautious when making every penalty.

If it weren't for Pique's foul that was very obvious, he probably wouldn't even call it.

At that time, I fell to the ground, but if the referee didn't call Pique a foul, wouldn't it be embarrassing? Such an offensive opportunity was wasted by him.

So Gao Zheng would rather give it a go than give up the opportunity to attack so easily.

Pique stalks him, he doesn't have room for the ball, yes.

Then don't take the ball!

Under the entanglement of Pique, Gao Zheng began to adjust his pace.

When the football flew over, without any hesitation, he swung his left foot while running, and in front of Pique's eyes, he drew the ball passed by Griezmann towards the goal!

With a bang, Pique saw the football suddenly accelerate and fly towards the goal guarded by Bravo!

Because he was entangled with Gao Zheng and due to his position, he couldn't destroy Griezmann's pass in advance. Now he can only watch Gao Zheng complete the shot. All he can do is Pray, pray that Gao Zheng can't hit the ball within the range of the goal frame, or pray that Bravo can save the football.

In his field of vision, Bravo is already flying up, reaching for the football with outstretched arms.

But Bravo couldn't touch the ball.

Gao Zheng ran to the left, and the football he volleyed with his left foot did head towards the upper right corner of the goal.

Bravo was originally following the football to move towards Gao Zheng's running direction, but Gao Zheng hit the football back, and he couldn't do it any more.

"gaoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo——" Jose Maria elongated his voice, and amidst his roar, the football passed Bravo's finger tube and fell into the goal from the upper right corner!

"oooooooooooooooooooooooool!!! A clean volley! Gao didn't hesitate, he hit a world wave!! Atletico Madrid equalized the score away, and there is an away goal! Gao's goal is almost Sentenced to death for Barcelona!"

The concert in the stands of the Camp Nou came to an abrupt end, and it was over. (=easy to read novels)
