277 The Son of God joins the war!(1/2)
Camp Nou Stadium.
The first half of the La Liga top battle ended.
Ye Yifeng and Messi each made a contribution.
The two teams returned to the locker room for a short rest.
Simeone was a little irritated and asked the team to continue to improve their defensive aggression in the second half and take more decisive fouls!
Facing Barcelona, conventional methods are almost ineffective.
The key point is whether Barcelona's shot against Oblak can save.
The so-called state gap is not the initiative of Atletico Madrid players.
As long as Messi, Neymar, Suarez are in full form, they can make their opponents' defense line difficult to defend.
There is no doubt about this.
What makes Simeone more optimistic is that Ye Yifeng is also in great shape at Atletico Madrid.
With room for counterattack, Barcelona may not be able to stop their quick counterattack.
However, most of the time the ball is open 37, sometimes it is open 28. Atletico Madrid does not always succeed in defending and can turn into a counterattack, but as long as Barcelona controls the ball, they can brew a threatening offensive.
The two teams returned to the court and changed sides and fought again.
Amid the passionate cheering, Barcelona's offensive rhythm became faster and faster, and the threat became greater and greater.
In the 52nd minute of the game, Rakitic's long shot outside the penalty area was blocked by Jimenez with his body. After the ball that popped out was controlled by Busquets, Barcelona launched a fast attack from the left.
When Neymar cut in and ran, Alba passed the ball to the middle, and Iniesta accurately sent the ball to the left in front of the penalty area before Gabi pressed.
Neymar stopped and moved in a row to break into the penalty area. Godin was at the top of the defense and blocked Neymar at the penalty area. Neymar overturned to the ground again. The referee blew a whistle and showed Godin a yellow card.
Although Barcelona fans are used to the practice of Atletico Madrid's fouls, they still can't help but get angry every time they experience it.
This is a collision of football philosophy, and the gap in the overall strength of the team forces Atletico Madrid to use this method.
If you have stronger strength, Simeone might try Bielsa's passionate offensive football that "did rather die if you don't attack."
But he coached Atletico Madrid.
The difference between the team and Real Madrid and Barcelona is more than just whether there is a difference between Ronaldo and Messi?
The world's strongest midfield combination is Real Madrid, and the second strongest is Barcelona.
The gap is all-round.
Even in terms of data, how can Ye Yifeng replace Messi and Ronaldo with his pair, how can Griezmann and Torres offset Bale and Benzema, Suarez and Neymar?
What to do with Atletico Madrid skills?
Can't defend against it, don't foul.
Waiting for Barcelona to score and ravage.
Then applaud Barcelona and cheer.
Lost with confidence.
Conquered by beautiful football.
Become a martyr in offensive football?
Some teams will do this.
But Atletico Madrid chose to say no.
Because they also want a championship, they did not choose the same track to catch up with their opponents, but instead took a different approach and chose to collide with their opponents head-on!
See who can survive to the end!
In the 56th minute of the game, Juan Fran defended Alba from the side and then passed the ball straight ahead.
Cork instigated a counterattack and passed the ball straight ahead.
When Griezmann dribbled quickly, Mascherano took the initiative to step forward to prepare for an interception.
If you can't intercept it, you will be fouled.
Barcelona is also not easy to face a counterattack.
Griezmann knocked the ball across the middle, but he still looked for Ye Yifeng to see if Ye Yifeng and Pique could win another set.
However, Ye Yifeng just stopped the ball this time and was tripped by Busquets from behind to his running foot.
Ye Yifeng fell to the ground, and the referee also showed a yellow card to Busquets.
Barcelona will also use tactical fouls.
While Harvey was still there, he was also a decisive executor of tactical fouls.
Ye Yifeng found that if he continued to play like this, Atletico Madrid's fast attack lacked changes.
He thought about how to make some changes.
In the 59th minute of the game, Messi once again ran a rampage on the right side of the frontcourt and cut inward. After Saul blocked his inward line, he dribbled back and suddenly sent out the overhead oblique plug.
Neymar quickly stepped forward and volleyed in the left rib of the penalty area!
He hit the football in the lower right position in the middle of the goal.
Oblak flew to save and happened to block the ball with one hand!
Neymar was stunned and felt incredible that the ball could not be converted into a goal.
The audience was also amazed.
To be fair, Oblake's performance last season was barely outstanding, but his performance in the battle has steadily improved.
I dare not say that the number one goalkeeper in La Liga, but I definitely deserve Atletico Madrid's position in La Liga.
In the 62nd minute of the game, Gaby made a short cross in the middle of the backcourt.
When Ye Yifeng was controlling the ball and dribbled forward, Busquets intercepted him from the front, and Rakitic came from behind. When Busquets predicted that Ye Yifeng would inevitably accelerate the breakthrough, but he was unable to determine which direction it was, Ye Yifeng pulled the ball and turned around.
Just dodged Rakitic's press.
Fight quickly, and always pursue fast.
But Ye Yifeng slowed down and passed the ball to the left to find Carrasco. Ye Yifeng then ran to the left side of the front court.
At this time, Rakitic rushed to the side. Alves was afraid of Ye Yifeng's threat of forward entry, but instead did not dare to go forward and counterattack easily on the side.
Carrasco sent a direct pass.
When Ye Yifeng stopped the ball and took a step towards the steering wheel of the backcourt when he responded in front of Alves, he observed the situation during this process.
When Busquets and Alves joined forces to grab the ball, Ye Yifeng sent the ball to the right side with a precise diagonal pass.
After getting the ball, he quickly cut inside and rushed into the middle of the penalty area.
Although Atletico Madrid's counterattack slowed down, the scene was even more open.
Cork stopped the ball from the right and walked into the inside line, and Alba chased and ran over the head from the outside.
Because there is enough space in the middle, Cork sends a diagonal pass when he dribbles into the offensive dangerous area.
Ye Yifeng stopped the ball in front of Pique and slowed down again, but Pique stepped forward nervously, and Mascherano was marking Griezmann, who was invading in front, retreated into the penalty area.
Ye Yifeng pulled the ball to the right and tried to find the space for passing the ball. Pike didn't have that much, and he kicked Ye Yifeng's ankle from the side while stretching his legs and pressing.
The referee blew the whistle and came to show Pique a yellow card. Pique was also very irritable and angrily scolded his midfield teammates for allowing Atletico Madrid to counterattack and play!
If he didn't make a foul just now, Ye Yifeng made a straight pass and Griezmann would get an excellent chance to start a shot!
Enrique also walked to the sidelines and clapped his hands to remind the players in the frontcourt: Strengthen the return to defense!
Ye Yifeng slowed down the pace and counterattacked. If Barcelona's frontcourt players did not strengthen their return to defense, then Atletico Madrid would likely support the frontcourt fast break and smash Barcelona's defense line!
The game time is getting less and less, and the pressure is getting bigger and bigger on Barcelona.
In the 65th minute, when Messi attracted Felipe Luis, Carrasco and Saul from the right fast break in the frontcourt to attack him, he knocked the ball across the middle.
Iniesta scored a goal and passed it to the right side in front of the bottom line.
Alves stopped the ball from the bottom and adjusted it and sent out a cross.
Suarez and Messi, who cut in front, were blocked by key points, but Alves' pass flew to the back point of the penalty area.
I thought Neymar might have been forward, but Alba unexpectedly responded and stopped the ball in his chest and shot directly from the side!
The football hit the net on the goal net near the outside of the goal post.
Barcelona fans in the Camp Nou stands cheered.
The cheers came to an abrupt end.
The first time they thought the ball had entered!
Alba was extremely disappointed, but Barcelona's attack made Atletico Madrid frightened.
Simeone made a substitution.
To be continued...
