Chapter 176 I'm sure to win this match!
Manchester City, which won the Premier League title seven rounds ahead of schedule, played with a team mostly made up of substitutes and defeated Bournemouth [-]-[-] away.
Zhao Jinge, who came off the bench in the second half, scored two goals to help the team continue its unbeaten record in the Premier League in a single season, and successfully unlocked the No. 40 Premier League goals in a single season.
After the game, the excited British media were discussing how high Zhao Jinge will bring the Premier League single-season scoring record.
At present, there are still six rounds left in the Premier League. Anything is possible. Some crazy media have already shouted the slogan of hitting [-] goals, and they did not regard the remaining six opponents of Manchester City as human beings.
Regarding the scoring record, Zhao Jinge of course wants to raise him as high as possible, and after the pressure of performance is gone, his teammates are also willing to help him create more shooting opportunities in the game.
However, under the hype of the media, Zhao Jinge has long been a thorn in the side of the defensive players of other Premier League teams.
No one in this world wants to act as a glamorous background board for others, especially if this person wants to step on you.
This is the situation Zhao Jinge is facing now. His two goals in the game against Bournemouth tonight were all scored by long shots.
As for their penalty area, Zhao Jinge couldn't squeeze in at all, and fouls by opponents were commonplace.
In such a severe situation, Zhao Jinge will definitely not risk being maliciously fouled by the opponent to pursue goals excessively.
Although I have hung up, but the spike kicked my leg, the pain is really painful!
Apart from Zhao Jinge's scoring record, there were not many other highlights in this game.
Guardiola also only arranged for three main players to come off the bench in the second half to stimulate the state of the game.
Everyone knows that this game is not valued by Manchester City at all.
Today's Guardiola and Manchester City only have the quarter-finals of the Champions League in their eyes.
……
As the match day approached, various news about Manchester City and Barcelona began to emerge in an endless stream, and discussions about the recent status of the two teams were also the focus of attention of the fans.
The recent Manchester City can be said to be proud of the spring breeze. It has won two domestic championships in a row.
Enrique's team first drew with Villarreal [-]-[-] at home in the last round of La Liga before the national team match day.
Then on April 4, in the second national derby in La Liga this season, they lost to their absolute rival Real Madrid at the Nou Camp with a score of 3 to [-].
Before the Champions League match with Manchester City, he lost to his old rival. This is definitely not good news for Barcelona.
Guardiola is also studying the video of Barcelona's last few games.
He has found a clear dividing line in Barcelona's recent rounds in La Liga.
In the five rounds of La Liga before Barcelona's draw with the Yellow Submarine, facing the middle and lower reaches of La Liga, Barcelona won five consecutive victories while keeping zero goals.
But in the next two rounds of facing the strong La Liga teams in the Champions League, Barcelona was scored two goals in two consecutive games by their opponents. This actually proves that there may be problems with the defense of the Red and Blues.
Why is this so?
Studying the starting lineups of these few games in Barcelona, it is not difficult to find that, in fact, Barcelona's starting central defenders on the defensive line have always been Pique and Mascherano.
Unless two people are injured, they are the starters of Barcelona's iron fight, and their playing time and the number of appearances in various competitions are extremely high.
Coupled with the factors of Barcelona's tactical play, Pique and Pony will have an increased running distance compared to other teams, coupled with the factor of older age.
In the latter part of the season, when the physical decline was serious, the Barcelona defense line led by these two men was a little unstable.
Especially when facing a strong team, facing a weak team, Barcelona can still suppress the opponent with its super high ball possession rate and strong attack line, so that its own defense line can rest easy.
If there are weak teams attacking desperately, most of Barcelona's [-]-[-], [-]-[-] massacres in recent years have been obtained from these weak teams, and they will be properly awarded points.
However, when facing some stronger teams, Barcelona's defense line, which usually presses high, will suffer. Whether it is a defensive counterattack or a high-pressure press, the counterattack of the strong teams will always make Barcelona's unstable defense. Defense line, feel the pain of losing the ball.
The main reason is that these two central defenders have good ball skills and must fit Barcelona's pass and control tactics.
He has good skills at his feet, strong ability to play the ball, and a top defender in defense, which is almost impossible to find on this planet.
In the absence of being able to cover everything, the Barcelona central defender who prioritizes technology and ball play,
Compared with the defense lines of other top teams, if you only look at the defensive strength, it must be weaker.
The two full-backs are all offensive, and they can hardly share the pressure of the central defense.
In this stalemate of the deadly main force and declining physical fitness at the end of the season, Barcelona's central defense has become a breakthrough for this cosmic team!
Some people may also say, how can Enrique not think of this problem that ordinary fans can see?
Of course Enrique knew about the problems in the back line, but he really didn't have anyone in his hands!Otherwise, he wouldn't use Brother Ma to play as a central defender!
The young man Baltra, after Bell staged a good show of overtaking in a corner, was directly nailed to the pillar of shame and labeled as an unreusable label.
Another newly-introduced central defender, Mathieu, is a year older than Pony. In the Barcelona game, his performance was also very abstract. He just staged it in the draw with Villarreal. Own goal.
It's two people, the only two first-team central defenders in Barcelona besides the two starters!
What do you ask Enrique to do?If the club doesn't buy people, even if he can play well, he can't help it!
If you really want to use these two backup central defenders, Barcelona's defense line should not be defended at all. To say that he is a ragged padded jacket is an understatement!
As early as the beginning of Enrique coaching Barcelona, he wanted to improve Barcelona's central defender combination, but Chairman Pi's unshakable main position, coupled with the older and more demonized Mascherano, and the club's buyers who often stepped on the pit Influence.
In addition, relying on this not-so-top defense, Barcelona even won the Triple Crown in [-] years. With the blessing of various influences, Enrique also put out his thoughts on improving the defense.
However, he didn't expect that the one-year-old defense line would suddenly be unable to hold on at the end of the season.
In the last few rounds, Barcelona's defense has had a big problem, and it has almost become a colander.
In the time and space of the original history, in addition to losing the national derby at the beginning of April, in the next four consecutive games, except for the [-]-[-] narrow victory over Atletico Madrid in the first round of the Champions League, the next three games were directly defeated. !
In La Liga, they suffered a three-game losing streak that has not been seen for many years. The point difference directly from No. 2 Real Madrid in the La Liga standings was suddenly reduced to one point.
Fortunately, Enrique reined in at the last moment, and there were no new problems in the last few La Liga games.
Otherwise, Real Madrid, who have been winning consecutively in the last dozen rounds of La Liga, may really stage a big comeback when they are behind by more than ten points!
The opponent's two central defenders are their biggest breakthrough. Guardiola easily came to this correct conclusion, but how to use this breakthrough to win is also a headache for Guardiola.
In the subsequent tactical discussions between the coaching staff and the players, Guardiola clearly pointed out this point.
"I think that Barcelona's offense and defense are a bit out of balance now. They only care about offense but not defense, so Barcelona's offense is very sharp now, but defense is very problematic.
Of course, this is in the case of facing a strong team of the same level, you must have a strong enough offensive line to catch the loopholes in their defense.
Fortunately, we are that strong enough competitor, and we also have a super strong attack line that the whole of Europe is looking at. How to use our advantages to defeat our opponents is the breaking point we need to find recently! "
In the middle of the meeting, as Guardiola's important assistant coach, Domenech Torrent, who has been following from Barcelona to Bayern to Manchester City, gave his own opinion:
"They are very similar to our last opponent, Bayern Munich is also the same, their defense has become a breakthrough for the team because of injuries and aging.
Although the reasons for their formation are different, from a common point, when they met us, these two teams were top-heavy.
Think about how we beat Bayern Munich in a row, pressing high pressure, constantly passing and controlling, striving to improve effective ball possession, and actively attacking!
We won by offensive football, and judging from our defense this season, we can't resist the ferocious firepower of MSN!
In a sense, we are a top-heavy team like Barcelona, but our offense and defense will be more balanced,
Especially after Kanter and other players joined in the winter, we have found a balance between offense and defense. In terms of offense and defense, we have reached the top level. Now is the time to compete for hard power!
Barcelona have no choice, they have to fight us for real, it will be a wonderful battle! "
"You are right, Domenech! We really have to stick to our own tactical style, we have indeed found a balanced way to win, which is worth sticking to.
However, we still need to make more detailed adjustments against Barcelona. They are different opponents. We must prepare carefully, be more careful! "
Taking advantage of the two or three days before the game, Manchester City is seizing the last free time, carefully preparing for the game against Barcelona, and the same is true for the Red and Blues.
Both teams are determined to win this game, especially Barcelona.
Anyone who is familiar with football knows that in the strong dialogue at home, every detail is crucial.
Because no one can expect that they can grab more opportunities in the away game, otherwise, what is the point of home and away games?
If it weren't for the fact that away games are more difficult, UEFA would not have formulated the rule of away goals.
This is why, after Manchester City double-beat Bayern Munich with a big score at home and away, it will cause fierce repercussions in world football.
Compared with the treacherous and unpredictable away trip, the first round of the game, and it is still at home, Barcelona must show the courage that is inevitable.
Now, it's Barcelona's turn to face the winning Manchester City.
Time flies, and two days before the start of the game, the Manchester City team, which is ready to go, has already flown to Barcelona.
After finding this familiar land, Guardiola was interviewed by media reporters in the hotel where the team stayed.
Facing the swarming media from all walks of life, Guardiola did not shy away from the recent defeat of his old club.
"Although Barcelona played poorly in the last two games, it does not affect their strength in the Champions League.
Luiz and Barcelona are worthy of any championship, and they were the treble champions who dominated Europe last season!
This season they led the La Liga standings with a seven-point advantage and reached the final of the Copa del Rey.
Being able to maintain the competition for multiple championships for multiple consecutive seasons, Barcelona has long needed to prove its own strength, and Luiz has also proved that he is one of the best head coaches in European football today. "
"I know Luis very well, I know Barcelona very well, I know how strong they are, this will be our most important game of the season and our strongest opponent."
"In the past period of time, and the next period of time, we have been preparing for this game. I believe that we can adjust to the best state before the Champions League game!"
"In Barcelona, we have only one goal, and that is to win! After winning those two domestic titles, we can't wait to show our strengths in the Champions League!"
In addition to Guardiola, Manchester City players such as Zhao Jinge, Aguero, David Silva, De Bruyne and Yaya Toure, all publicly expressed their vision and expectations for the Champions League in interviews with the media .
They are all ambitious to defeat a powerful enemy and return to Manchester with success!
In front of the media, Zhao Jinge shouted in a rare high-profile way:
"We are bound to win this game! Our goal is the European champion!"
Such a high-profile slogan.
It can be seen that the Manchester City locker room is already determined to win this game!
The same is true of the British media.
Whether it is the Sun or the Daily Mail, the media, large and small, are supporting Manchester City, hoping that Manchester City can regain a Champions League for England and achieve the Triple Crown.
But there are also some media reminding Manchester City that it is not easy to achieve this.
"Enrique and his Barcelona are also aiming at the treble!"
After beating Valencia, Barcelona need only beat Sevilla in the Copa del Rey final to be crowned the champion.
In La Liga, with Barcelona's current situation, it is basically guaranteed to win the championship. After all, Barcelona, which has not yet collapsed at the end, is still ahead by a full seven points.
The two teams are also aiming at the triple crown, which makes the media and fans all over the world feel extra excited.
This is definitely an extremely rare scene in the entire world of football.
No matter who wins, everyone has the opportunity to continue chasing the highest honor of becoming the Triple Crown!
Become the second team in the history of the national league to win the treble and will make history.
After the Spanish media reported the menacing news of Manchester City, they also reminded Enrique and his Barcelona to be careful of Manchester City, especially Zhao Jinge, who has performed really well recently.
It can be said that the current Zhao Jinge is the sharpest fang of this Manchester City team.
The collision between Zhao Jinge and Messi has also become the focus of attention of all fans!
