Chapter 481 Counterattack!Fight back!
Chapter 481 Counterattack!Fight back!
Looking at Arsenal retreating across the board, Harvey hesitated rarely.
Not only because Arsenal's counterattack is very sharp.
Arsenal's current formation is indeed very strong in counterattack, but their offensive ability in Barcelona is equally strong, with Ronaldinho on the left, Messi on the right, and Habaiya Toure in the middle. If you really want to say, their winning percentage is even higher a little.
But, this is the Champions League final!
There is a saying called [final unnamed game].
This is actually like the college entrance examination. Most people take the exam casually in school, but they even double-check when drawing the answer sheet for the college entrance examination.
This is because the huge psychological pressure makes people become much more cautious than usual!
Thinking affects action, and Harvey is the brain of Barcelona. With his hesitation, the tactical tendency of the Barcelona team is also visible to the naked eye. Even the Barcelona fans in the stands noticed this, and the crowd gradually became restless. , Some people are cheering, some people are shouting.
"He's numb, but he can't relax yet."
The atmosphere on the sidelines became more and more restless. How could Chen Mo not know what the fans knew.Seeing that Harvey fell into a state of hesitation, Chen Mo was overjoyed, and then quickly tensed up.
Harvey, as the brain of the team, decides the fate of the team. At this time, he bears the greatest pressure of the team, so he is naturally more numb, but other players are not necessarily, especially those two guys!
With this in mind, Chen Mo will immediately focus on Ronaldinho and Messi!
Ronaldinho is an optimist, you will never be able to watch it on a person who went to Longguo to do promotional activities, then recruited his stepdaughter in the middle of the night, and still had a good time, and ended up working until midnight when he was hungry, and insisted on asking his stepdaughter to buy him pizza to any tension.
And Messi. This guy rarely shows any expression of determination, but a child with dwarfism can step up to the top of the world step by step. Without a strong heart, it is impossible to do this !
"We must guard the two sides!"
Without any hesitation, Chen Mo immediately called out to his teammates to pull the defensive formation slightly to the sides!
"Smart boy!"
The moment he saw this scene, Wenger clenched his fists excitedly on the sidelines!
Normally speaking, if the formation is stretched to both sides, there will definitely be holes in the middle, but Arsenal is now in a 451 formation with a lot of midfielders. Even if they are stretched, the defense in the middle still has not much impact.
Faced with this situation, Barcelona can only put the two full-backs on, and even go to the winger position to help Messi and Ronaldinho attract defensive players. But in this way, Barcelona's ability to resist counterattacks will become worse!
Chen Mo's command this time is tantamount to directly cornering Barcelona!
Either a 100% defensive midfielder or a 100% offensive team presses up, there is no option for both offense and defense!
In this situation, not to mention Harvey on the field, even Guardiola can't make up his mind!
The coach is hesitating, and the brains on the field are also hesitating!
Undoubtedly, as time went by, Barcelona started to play more and more uncomfortable. Although Ronaldinho and Messi have been trying to retreat to get the ball, there is no way to cause damage at all.
Full-back Gabel or Di Maria's two-man defense, and Rakitic or Makoto's replacement next to him, even if they pass the three, they will eventually face the Arsenal central defender!
Three lines of defense!
Facing such an impregnable wall, it is impossible for Messi to complete the explosion with three legs!
Uncomfortable!
Barcelona played very uncomfortable, and the root of all this is because, "The midfield operation is not delicate enough!"
On the sidelines, Guardiola rubbed his hair anxiously as he watched Barcelona gain momentum and fail to score.
Pass control not only emphasizes attacking tough areas on the side, but also emphasizes all kinds of sharp moves in the middle, and then combines the side and the center to check each other, but now Harvey is locked in the back.
Not only because Chen Mo's pressing effect is good, but also because Yaya Toure doesn't have the ability to act as a metronome and guide the midfielder. Yaya Toure doesn't do this kind of thing.
Therefore, the midfielder of this team is Yaya Toure, but Harvey can only be dragged in the back position to ease, and Harvey dragged in the back, and Iniesta alone is not effective in pressing forward.
Of course, Yaya Toure can also press forward, but the problem is that Yaya Toure's offensive method is simple and violent, mainly hitting the penalty area directly, and does not have the Tiki-Taka pass and run in the small area at the top of the arc like Habai. Effect.
If Yaya Toure and Iniesta press forward together, it will be a chicken talking to a duck, each kicking their own way.
This is where Barcelona is struggling now. At the same time, this is why Chen Mo has been studying Yaya Toure's game video before the game, and why Chen Mo dared to kick 451 and shrink back!
This Barcelona's central attack looks strong, but it is actually very inconsistent and cannot form an effective attack!
If there is no threat in the middle, Barcelona's side will be under more defensive pressure!
"It's a pity, just give me one more year!"
With an anxious face, Guardiola glanced at a Barcelona player on the bench who looked like a big nut—Busquets!
Busquets was single-handedly promoted from the Barcelona B team in 06. Busquets was also a midfielder he trained according to the characteristics of Xavi Iniesta and Barcelona!
The main ability is to delay the response, connect the midfield and the backcourt, pass the threatening ball to speed up, and don't look at his slow movement, in fact, his ability to protect the ball is not bad.
As long as Busquets is on, Xavi can safely go up to the front to dance cha-cha with Iniesta, and then Barcelona's midfield operation will be completely perfect!
The style of play is suitable, and the overall operation will definitely be perfect under no-stress conditions, but that is under no-stress conditions!
Busquets had just joined the first team from the Barcelona B team four months ago!
It's the final of the Champions League, if Busquets plays, he will face Chen Mo directly!
Do you understand what it means to drop ten meetings with one force!
Unless it is a last resort, Guardiola dare not let Busquets play at all!
Guardiola on the sidelines was anxious and pained, while the game on the field continued.
Guardiola's analysis is indeed correct, the center cannot be opened, although Barcelona's offensive is getting more and more fierce, but it has been unable to cause effective damage, but Barcelona must create damage!
In this case, Barcelona can only fight hard!
In the 407th minute of the game, Barcelona right back Alves went forward to the winger position to attract Marcelo, while Messi retreated from the right to get the ball.
Messi.
Bale-Mr. Chen Mo-Rakitic-Di Maria.
Messi is now Barcelona's biggest explosive point. There is no doubt that as soon as he retreated, Bell immediately stuck to him.
Pass Bell, and there is Xiao Ma's replacement. Even if Xiao Ma passes, there will be a central defender's sister-in-law who will grab it immediately.
Three lines of defense, the pressure is great, but amid the cheers of the Barcelona fans, Messi, who got a one-on-one chance with Bell near a 45-degree angle, still kept his upper body straight, licked the ball with his left foot and slowly pushed forward, while his eyes He stared at Bell's feet in front of him.
"He's going to wait! What's the situation with this guy?"
As soon as Messi made this posture, the corner of his eye glanced at the 47:23 timer, and Chen Mo knew it, but at this moment, the corner of his eye suddenly caught a huge black shadow advancing rapidly in the middle!
Yaya Toure? !
Seeing Yaya Toure's advance, Chen Mo was stunned, his eyes full of surprise, but he didn't approach Messi to make up for the first time, nor did he care about Yaya Toure who advanced, but stood Moved closer to Iniesta.
"Damn! What is he doing?!"
After capturing Chen Mo's movement, Iniesta, who was about to step forward to the top of the arc to help build the wall, also flashed a strong puzzlement in his eyes.
Messi is a left-footed right winger who relies on cutting inside, and after cutting inside, he often likes to find teammates in the top area of the arc as a wall, and then go around the arc with his left foot.
At this time, the most important test for teammates is the ability to run and play the ball in a small area. When Messi wants to cut inside, the threat of Iniesta and Xavi going forward is far greater than that of Yaya Toure!
But Yaya Toure moved forward!
No team dared all the midfielders to go forward at the same time, not to mention Iniesta, even Guardiola on the sidelines was stunned for a moment after seeing Yaya Toure go forward, and then rushed to the sidelines to shout!
There is no doubt that this is not their pre-match arrangement!But under the high-intensity mental pressure during this period, Yaya Toure made a wrong tactical choice!
Just two seconds after Yaya Toure moved forward, Messi also dropped his left shoulder to get rid of Bell, and dribbled the ball all the way to the top of the arc.
run wild!
The moment he got rid of Bale, and the moment he was overtaken horizontally by Xiao Ma, Messi immediately looked for the wall on Arsenal's striker!
What is a wall? !
To put it bluntly, A passes the ball to B, and B passes the ball to A. This B is the wall.
This wall is critical!
Don't underestimate that it's just that one flick, but that one flick can keep Messi off the ball in less than a second, so that he can adjust the step frequency as he likes!
You must know that Messi's step frequency is already very scary when he is in possession of the ball, and it is even more terrifying when he is off the ball. He can even rely on this moment to block the opponent's step frequency!
It is not luck that Messi wears so many crotch balls. Anyone who has played football games knows that when there are defensive players in front of him, most of the shots will be blocked by directly stretching his legs. Messi can wear crotch, such as in the World Cup. Ke sent the eye of God, such as kicking Mexico through the crotch and kicking a sword to seal the throat, all of which caught the opponent's pace!
This wall is the key step for Messi to make the last step adjustment!
It can be directly understood as an amplifier!
Very critical!
But soon, Messi, who dribbled the ball all the way inside, became confused!
There are no walls!
Villa was entangled by Chiellini's death and couldn't stretch out his feet at all. Iniesta, who was thrusting forward, was stuck in front of Chen Mo. Let alone stretching out his feet, he could only see Iniesta hugging him from behind Chen Mo's hand!
All Messi could find was Yaya Toure, who stood on the penalty area line and stuck his sister-in-law with his body!
Yaya Toure has room to catch the ball, but!
"He didn't have a route to the ball!"
"I can't pass the ball back, and he can't finish it by himself!"
"Their attack failed!"
Yaya Toure can catch the ball, but his position is too deep, and he can't bounce the ball when he catches it!
Messi understands all of this, and not far away, Chen Mo also understands all of this. In the blink of an eye, Chen Mo was ready to fight back, but in the next second, in Chen Mo's eyes that were gradually widening, a figure with long brown hair appeared At a distance of about five meters from the top of Arsenal's arc!
That is? !
"Puyol?!"
"Damn!"
The moment he saw the figure clearly, Chen Mo's head went numb. Without any hesitation, he gave up on Iniesta and turned around and rushed into the penalty area. Just a second before he turned and sprinted, Messi cut diagonally from right to left at the top of the arc. A direct kick kicked the ball to Puyol outside the top of the arc. In the next second, facing the rolling ball, amidst the exclamation of the fans, Puyol made an emergency stop and pulled his center of gravity back , Then, the right foot was flattened, and the arch of the foot pushed towards the ball rolling to the right!
Pick the ball!
Backspin pick!
The ball drew a rainbow in the heavy rain, and it was hoisted directly to the right side of Arsenal's penalty area, to the direction where Yaya Toure turned and advanced!
"My God! Puyol went forward! No one in Arsenal's 451 formation can defend the Barcelona defender! Would playing 451 be the worst decision Chen Mo made in this game?!"
"Never mind that! Puyol lobs! Yaya Toure goes forward! Thiago Silva can't stop him!"
Amid the exclamation of the fans, the ball fell to the right side of Arsenal's penalty area!
The ball is flying in the sky, and Yaya Toure is chasing it on the ground!
Also rushing towards the ball was Arsenal goalkeeper Almunia!
The audience erupted instantly, but the ball only flew halfway.
"Damn knees!"
"He passed the ball too big!"
The moment Puyol saw the trajectory of the ball, Puyol gritted his teeth and turned back to defend immediately!
Puyol, like Ramos, was a full-back in his early years and had passing ability, but he suffered a cruciate ligament injury in his right knee in the first half of this season.
Of course, the injury was not serious, and he returned to the game after a two-month break, but the impact of the injury still exists!
Just kidding, even Chen Mo had to go through hellish rehabilitation training and cheating to fully recover, not to mention Puyol, and this kind of lob under the high pressing formation, less power will be cleared, and more points will be cleared If you force yourself, you will be thrown by the goalkeeper, which is a test of your skills!
And obviously, he didn't pass the ball well!
Very weird situation!
The entire Barcelona team was pressing forward, and the entire Arsenal team was also retreating, but Chen Mo and Puyol rushed in the opposite direction like fish swimming against the current, and as the ball fell, the audience broke out again. Exclamation!
"Beautiful! Goalkeeper Almunia attacked Yaya Toure one step ahead and hugged the ball! Barcelona's attack was turned! Wait! What's going on?! Why did Chen Mo appear there?!"
"Arsenal's counterattack is coming!!!"
The audience exclaimed, under the wide-eyed gaze of everyone, the goalkeeper Almunia immediately wanted to make a long pass, but just as he took the ball and rushed forward two steps, Yaya Toure was in front of him!
Don't give the ball!
Yaya Toure stared at the ball in Almunia's hand, ready to take out his big black legs and stretch his feet to destroy it as soon as Almunia let go of the ball to make a long pass!
"Damn!"
Seeing Yaya Toure's movements, Almunia's face was full of anxiety!
Chen Mo had already rushed to the center line at this time, and he didn't have the skill of throwing the ball vigorously!
The hand can't be thrown that far, but there is no way to open it directly!
anxious!
It hurts!
And at this moment, out of the corner of his right eye, he caught a figure retreating from the side!
Di Maria, wearing Arsenal's red and white NO.11 jersey, is waving anxiously on the right!
