Super Marshal

Single sword! ! ! !

For a moment, the air in Camp Nou seemed to freeze.

The nearly 100,000 fans in the stands stared wide-eyed at what was happening on the court.

Aguero was like a sharp arrow, penetrating Barcelona's defense and chasing the ball. Behind him, Puyol and Pique were shocked and turned to chase.

Everything seemed to slow down, until the commentator screamed uncontrollably from the live broadcast.

"Danger, single sword!"

Only then did everyone suddenly wake up and react.

But at this time, Aguero had already caught up with the ball at an extremely fast speed and entered the penalty area. Facing the attacking goalkeeper Valdez, the Argentine forward made a flexible fake move and deceived Valdez. Suddenly, Spiking the ball to the left, he easily pushed the ball into the empty goal with his left foot.

"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!"

"The ball went in!!!"

"Goal from Sergio Aguero!"

"Four to two, Bayern Munich wins again."

"Oh my god, this is a nightmare for Barcelona."

"Puyol looks extremely frustrated. He should be responsible for his mistakes, but we should also be understanding. After all, he did play too many games and was very exhausted. This game lasted for such a long time. With the fast-paced offense and defense, it is understandable that mistakes will occur.”

"But the current situation is definitely unfavorable for Barcelona. Two to four, they have been beaten by Bayern Munich to a desperate situation, especially giving their opponents four away goals. This is simply a game in the Champions League knockout rounds. Nightmare."

After scoring the goal, Sergio Aguero was so excited that he rushed out of the stadium and ran around the stadium. He celebrated wildly amidst the boos of Barcelona fans until he was tackled by his teammates who were catching up behind him. .

Bayern Munich players cheered on the sidelines, celebrating the team's fourth goal.

The players of the home team Barcelona all had their heads drooped, looking very frustrated and depressed.

Tonight was destined to be uneventful, and they all walked into the stadium with sufficient psychological preparation. But what they didn't expect was that Bayern Munich still gave them a huge blow. The powerful attacking power of the Bundesliga giant, and Targeted tactics put them in a dilemma from the very beginning.

Conceding two goals in a row forced them to increase their offensive intensity. As a result, the game completely turned into an offensive battle.

Puyol, who was wearing the captain's armband, squatted on the ground, holding his head and looking very painful.

He has an inescapable responsibility for the goal he just conceded, because his kick was more like assisting Aguero. Such a clumsy mistake should never have happened in a high-level competition like tonight. .

But the paradox is that it happened unexpectedly, and it happened to me.

Puyol knew that as captain, he should come forward to encourage his teammates at this time, but it was difficult for him to stand up and take steps because he was a little ashamed of his teammates and the head coach Guardiola on the sidelines. I feel even more ashamed of the fans in the stands.

He couldn't even forgive himself, let alone ask for forgiveness from others.

Barcelona's other players were also scattered on the court, seemingly at a loss.

When the game reached this level, they were all a little confused and didn't know how to continue.

At this moment, a shout suddenly came from the sidelines.

"What are you doing? Is the game over?"

Everyone looked around and saw head coach Guardiola pointing at the court, as if pointing at each of them. The scene seemed very impressive, and everyone was the first to bear the brunt, as if they were being questioned face to face.

"That's it, do you want to give up? Do you deserve this jersey? Have you forgotten where this is?"

Guardiola's scolding was like a bolt from the blue, causing everyone on the court to suddenly wake up.

Puyol even raised his head suddenly, slapped his hands hard, held his head, woke himself up, stood up from the ground, and clapped vigorously.

"You're right, this is Camp Nou, the game isn't over yet, we can't just give up."

"Yes, the game is not over yet. We still have time and opportunities." Harvey also came over and encouraged his teammates loudly.

Pique even walked over and pulled his teammates together one by one, "Don't be like this, we haven't lost yet."

Under the greetings of several local Barcelona players, other players gathered together one after another.

By the time Bayern Munich's players returned from the sidelines to celebrate, Barcelona's players had already set up their positions, regained their fighting spirit, and even looked more determined than before.

This made Gao Han on the sidelines nod his head.

"This is the role of local players. At critical moments, they are more reliable than anyone else." Gao Han praised.

As a head coach, Gao Han knows very well that the most important thing for a team is to have cohesion.

In other words, a team without cohesion, no matter how excellent their skills and tactics, or how strong their players are, will be difficult to succeed because they will be like a piece of loose sand on the court.

So how to make the team more cohesive?

The answer is both simple and difficult.

That is to have a group of players who agree with the club's philosophy from the bottom of their hearts and truly love the club. This type of players are often local players or even their own youth training, because they have grown up under the training of the club since they were young.

Throughout the ages, all successful teams have always been supported by a group of local players. They are like a giant pillar supporting the entire locker room, while other players are attached to the four pillars. All around, everyone is working together in one direction, and only then can they be able to achieve unfavorable results.

AC Milan back then, Ajax later, Real Madrid, Bayern Munich, Barcelona later...

The locker rooms of these super teams that once swept across European football are often supported by an extremely strong local force. They all agree with the club's culture and philosophy and are highly loyal.

Real Madrid's case is actually the most convincing.

At the turn of the century, Del Bosque's team was able to stage a classic counterattack and win the Champions League. Local players played a decisive role. However, during the Florentino period, he always believed in the supremacy of capital and was superstitious. Superstars ignored local players, which resulted in the departure of local backbones such as Bosque, Morientes and Hierro. Local players such as Raul, Salgado and Casillas lost power. Even Raul was not allowed to flag. Don't give way to superstars frequently.

The year 2003 was such a critical turning point. Since then, Real Madrid has never won the honor again.

Therefore, every time Gao Han takes over a team, his first consideration when forming the team is how to create a local force, and then introduce other types of players.

Needless to say, Atletico Madrid, Chelsea's Terry, Lampard, Joe Cole and Bridge, Inter Milan's Cannavaro, Materazzi and Zanetti and other players, and when it comes to Bayern Munich, Hummel Si, Lahm, Bastian Schweinsteiger, Neuer, Thomas Muller...

The same situation also happened to the Chinatown team.

Gao Han started running this team from the youth training, with the purpose of first cultivating a group of his own players. But now, having entered the Spanish Second Division, most of the players he has introduced are young players around the age of nineteen. , highly moldable, and many of them start their official careers in clubs, so it is easy to become emotionally dependent.

When the players in the club's youth training camp grow up and mature, they will form the core of the Chinatown team.

It can be said that the Chinatown team has been created from scratch, and every bit of it has been integrated with Gao Han's understanding and knowledge of professional football, and this team is also practicing Gao Han's philosophy step by step.

As for how far it can develop in the future, who knows?

…………

…………

After the restart, Barcelona suddenly launched a fierce counterattack against Bayern Munich.

The Bundesliga giants also made no concessions. The players faithfully implemented Gao Han's arrangements during the midfield and continued to have a fierce offensive battle with Barcelona. The game also continued the exciting confrontation since the first half and the beginning of the second half.

Both sides kept creating opportunities and missed opportunities again and again.

Although he failed to score a goal, every time he made a threat, the nearly 100,000 fans in the stadium were shocked and every attack could arouse their emotions and make them fearful.

The ten minutes or so passed by quickly.

In such a high-consuming confrontation, the physical energy of both sides was exhausted very quickly, but both sides were holding back their energy and did not make substitution adjustments. They were both struggling to support themselves.

Finally, in the 78th minute, Barcelona once again got a chance. After Messi retreated to get the ball, he used his superb dribbling skills to get rid of Bastian Schweinsteiger and Lucio. Pushing the ball forward, Henry started quickly. After receiving the ball, he entered the penalty area from the left rib and pushed the ball into the near corner to score, three to four.

After scoring this goal, both sides seemed to have exhausted their energy.

Guardiola took the lead in making substitutions and substituted two at once.

Gao Han also quickly made adjustments, using two substitutions in just three minutes, and the last substitution was also used in the 82nd minute.

Following Gao Han, Guardiola also used up the last substitution in the 85th minute.

The adjustments of the two teams slowed down the pace of the game slightly, but the situation on the court was still very tense.

The score was once again brought closer. Barcelona wanted to increase their offensive, strive for goals and equalize the score, but Bayern Munich refused to give in and frequently created threats, forcing Barcelona to exert all its strength in the attack.

In the last few minutes, the situation on the court was still a back-and-forth, inextricable fight, but no one was able to create better opportunities, and no one was able to get another good chance to score.

Especially at the end of the game, Barcelona's players were obviously out of control. In the second minute of stoppage time, Messi tackled Bastian Schweinsteiger while retreating to defend, and was shown a yellow card by the referee.

Abidal also made an excessive move when defending Robben and received a yellow card.

Among them, the French left back will miss the second round of the game due to accumulation of yellow cards.

In the last attack of the game, Lewandowski, who came on as a substitute, received a through ball from Toni Kroos and once again scored a solo goal. As a result, the Polish forward was half a beat slower when he came in, causing the ball to be blocked. Valdes, who struck decisively, sabotaged the ball at the front of the penalty area and missed an excellent opportunity to score.

After this attack, the referee finally blew the whistle to end the game.

Bayern Munich beat Barcelona 4-3 at home.

But at the moment when the game whistle sounded, Gao Han, who was in front of the visiting team's coaching bench, suddenly slapped himself in the face and shouted regretfully, "Oh my God, I forgot to use my special trick!"
