Chapter 805 Prove yourself
A close game is always better than a one-sided game. Although Barcelona cannot be evenly matched with Notts County for the time being, it is better to be able to play their own offense than to be defeated by Notts County.
Ronaldinho, the world's number one star, does have the strength to surpass any player. Even though he was trapped in a double-team, he was still able to get rid of it with ease and create a threat to Notts County. Ramos, a stunned young man, was really not enough in front of him. Look.
In fact, Loew had considered before the game, let Mascherano start the game full-time to mark Ronaldinho, and with his defensive ability, even if he could not completely limit the performance of the Brazilian Elf, he would not let him do so. On the other hand, in many games, Xiao Ma has guarded the opponent's top star so that he has no temper.
However, after thinking about it, Loew still decided not to change the lineup. Although Barcelona is strong, as long as Notts County strengthens its own style of play and plays it normally, the advantage is still great, and there is really no need to sacrifice the attack.
The current situation is that the threat to attack Notts County can account for more than seven points, while Barcelona is less than three points. This is still in the case that Notts County did not deliberately mark Ronaldinho. As long as the luck is not too bad, Loew believes that The team can still win.
However, David sitting on the coach's bench is always worried about accidents. What happened on some important occasions in his previous life, almost all of this life has been fulfilled by Notts County. If Joe Hart also comes, he will be punished. What a tragedy for Notts County!
Notts County has an advantage in strength, but not enough to ignore the numerical disadvantage.
Alas, I hope the mess doesn't happen!
At this time, the offense of Notts County came again on the field. Deco and Alonso organized the offense with ease, and slowed down the pace a little. The deadliest.
Alonso divided the ball to the right, Messi and Ramos who had an assist made a two-to-one match, and then he couldn't count on Ramos. Shui Ye can't be too high, he has to score a lot. Most of the energy to mark Ronaldinho it.
Facing the Dutch giant Van Bronckhorst, Messi had no stage fright at all. Although his opponent was Barcelona, whom he loved, he was only familiar with Iniesta and Xavi in the current Barcelona lineup, and had nothing to do with others. Where is the need to save face for them!
The simple movements of the feet and the rapid movement of the center of gravity seem to many people to be completely amateur-like extraordinary movements, but no defensive player can keep up with his movements. Messi used his flexibility to directly get rid of the Netherlands. Full-back defense.
After that, Messi did not make a cross, but forcibly cut in from the outside with speed. Facing Marcos who came out, he also quickly changed direction and buckled.
Then aim at the far corner of the goal and draw a small arc.
This is Messi's best way to score goals. Often as long as his speed increases, it is difficult for someone to defend. It can be said to be his signature move.
After Robben was suspended from within the team, Messi was under more pressure. Although his ability was not inferior to Robben's, or even better in some respects, he was suddenly ordered to take the team's left wing. The heavy responsibility of the attack was on his shoulders, and he still felt a little breathless.
Countless people are holding grievances for Robben, and there are countless people who question themselves, and even sometimes lose sleep because of it.
He is not a person who can be easily defeated by setbacks. He kept telling himself that he should use the most perfect performance to fight back doubts to prove that he is worthy of the core player position of Notts County.
Opportunity is at hand!
Go!
With Messi's inner roar, the ball passed Puyol's sliding tackle, passed Valdes' outstretched hands when he made a save, rubbed the inside of the column, and got into Barcelona's goal.
The audience was silent for a moment, as if time had stopped.
Messi's pupils shrank violently, and great joy flooded into his heart and mind instantly, as if struck by lightning. That feeling made him forget everything.
After a brief silence, the Stade de France erupted with the most enthusiastic cheers, from the stands of Notts County fans, while on the other side, there was a sigh.
Villa flew over and jumped up and jumped on Messi. Messi was happy and fortunate at the same time. Fortunately, Drogba was not starting today, otherwise his small body would not be able to bear it.
The other players also came over with expressions of excitement on their faces, patted Messi's head, patted his butt, and congratulated him in various ways.
Notts County's goal is not abrupt. After all, Notts County has an advantage, and the positional attack is pressing Barcelona. Several good opportunities in front of the goal have not been seized, but it has also given Barcelona a certain psychological preparation, but really When it came time to concede the ball, the Barcelona players still sank in their hearts and felt very bad.
They will not think that their strength is not as good as Notts County, but the team is at a disadvantage on the court. This is a fact that no one can ignore. Their attack is difficult, and more can only rely on Ronaldinho's personal performance, but the overall attack is not. If you can't score, you can only rely on flash of inspiration and luck to score goals. It's not that easy. Now that you lose the ball, it's even harder to equalize!
Rao is Rijkaard's strong psychological quality, but at this moment, his mind is blank, and he has no thoughts.
He knows very well what kind of situation Barcelona will face once it is led by Notts County. The data shows that the Magpies have never lost the game where Notts County scored the first goal, and no giants have ever completed a match against Notts. County's big reversal.
Once Notts County's formation shrinks and begins to make a fuss in the midfield, high-pressure pressing and quick counterattacks can make any team miserable and can be called Notts County's biggest killer.
Although Rijkaard wanted to comfort himself that if Notts County really retreated, then Barcelona would be able to attack and play their own football, but reason told him that this was simply a new delusion. Score a goal, but the defense will definitely be beaten into a sieve.
What should I do?
For the first time in his coaching career, Black Swan felt overwhelmed by pressure.
Notts County is celebrating the goal. Messi did not refuse to celebrate because he was from Barcelona. His memories are more of La Masia, rather than selling him to Barcelona in Notts County for money. He will not Self-deception.
A goal that directly changes the course of the game, it may be a goal that decides the title, it is very important.
Notts County's goal celebration ended with the intervention of the referee, as both sides returned to their respective fields, ready to restart the game. (To be continued.)
