Chapter 118, Guardiola's Troubles
The PSV players were ecstatic when they found out they were indeed ahead of Barcelona.
Their celebration was even a little exaggerated.
But Barcelona did not protest.
In the beginning, they were still in shock because they hadn't recovered from the shock—our mighty Barcelona was beaten by Eindhoven?
To be led by such a team?!
They can accept being led by Liverpool and Real Madrid. After all, these two teams have the same strength as them. Even if they are ahead, it is normal.
But PSV Eindhoven and them are so different!
To be able to lead Barcelona in the first 12 minutes of the game!
This kind of reality is too cruel, too shocking.
And when they finally recovered from the shock and began to gradually accept this reality, there was another thing that made them a little flustered.
After all, Guardiola is the head coach of the team, not as vulnerable as others, he quickly calmed down and accepted this reality.
Now it's time to think about how to fight back, not here thinking "This is impossible! This is impossible! How is this possible!"
So when he came back to his senses, he naturally noticed Vilanova next to him. He rang, and when Eindhoven scored, Vilanova suddenly stood up with a strange expression on his face.
It's just that now Vilanova was frightened by the fact that the team in front of him was behind, and he didn't respond anymore.
He turned to look at Vilanova, "Tito, do you seem to have something to say to me?"
After hearing Guardiola's words, Vilanova reacted
"Uh... yes...
He remembered what he was going to do.
It's just that when he thinks about it, the expression on his face becomes even uglier.
Guardiola watched the expression on his face change
"What's wrong?"
"Ugh...Liverpool scored. Su Han scored, just as we conceded...Liverpool took the lead!"
Guardiola was also stunned.
Then he reacted———this is really too bad!
Own team trails and Liverpool leads.
He is too familiar with Liverpool and took the lead at his home court, even a lead of ten goals is enough.
In the future, Liverpool will play more and more smoothly, while Naples will have no power to fight back.
Maybe Liverpool can end the suspense of the two rounds at home.
In that case, no matter how terrifying and hellish the St. Paul Stadium is, what threat is there to Liverpool?
Only then did Guardiola realize the problem he had been ignoring before...
He only saw the advantages and disadvantages of the schedule, but he forgot that Liverpool, who played at home first, could completely crush Naples and end the suspense of the quarter-finals by virtue of their strong home advantage. After all, Naples is far behind Liverpool in terms of strength, and this possibility does not exist.
In this way, I may not be just waiting for work at leisure!
So now what I should think about is how to solve Eindhoven as soon as possible in the away game, just like Liverpool, so that the second round of the match between the two sides will be meaningless!
Thinking of this, he nodded to Bilanova.
"I see, Tito. You continue to pay attention to the movement over there, and tell me if there is any situation.
After assigning tasks to Vilanova, he took a few steps forward and walked to the edge of the coach's command area.
This time, many of the main players did not come to the Netherlands with the team. This is to deal with Liverpool and let them get a better rest as much as possible.
However, some players followed the team to the Philips Stadium.
As the trump card of the team, Messi is sitting on the bench at this time.
If Messi is sent, the game will end soon.
It's just... when I run into PSV Eindhoven, I have to send out the strongest players, will it appear that I am too incompetent?
