Chapter 225 The Spectacular Camp Nou
When the players finished warming up and returned to the locker room, Chang Sheng was already there waiting for them. m
"Isn't the stands at the Camp Nou spectacular?" Chang Sheng asked.
Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, not knowing why their boss was talking about this.
The opponent's stands are spectacular, doesn't that mean that their home court atmosphere is good?
This is a kind of pressure for Lazio, right?
Chang Sheng continued: "It can be seen that Barcelona is bound to win this game. They have found all the fans they can call on to come and cheer for Barcelona. They are looking forward to seeing a super reversal. If we make them happen, we're the world's most idiotic morons! Guys."
"Remember the firecrackers in the wee hours of the morning? Remember those Barcelona fans laughing in the street? They thought they could stop us with such despicable means, so let's tell them how wrong they are. Outrageous! Since they don't even want face to beat us, how can I let them get what they want? Of course we want to make them shameless and unable to win! So in this game, we will completely destroy them! From the top You can already see it in a game. We are superior in strength and tactical suppression. Why can’t we win? Of course we want to win! They have a lot of fans? Personal performance, not whose fans admit defeat more!"
"I'm angry about getting up. If I didn't sleep well and was forcibly woken up, I would be very, very upset. I don't know if you have the same feeling. If you sleep well, but you are suddenly awakened, then The heart is beating like a heart attack. Anyway, I am like this. If you are also angry to get up. That's good, the culprit that makes you sleep badly is on the field, in the stands. Vent all your anger on them, and let them know what a serious crime it is to disturb a person's sound sleep! The crime is unforgivable!"

Puyol was injured and could not play, which was the biggest headache for Guardiola.
The partnership of Marcos and Pique is not the best configuration, but now he can't help it.
This week he focused on the cooperation between Marcos and Pique.
In the weekend league, such a starting central defender combination was also arranged, hoping to cultivate the tacit understanding between the two as much as possible.
In the locker room. He repeatedly explained this tactic, what should Barcelona do in the face of such a fast offensive style of pulling up.
It's not the same as before.
Instead of swarming the opponent in the frontcourt, he quickly returns to the defense.
Siege is basically useless.
He has been a coach in Lazio, and he knows very well that Lazio usually trains.
Lazio's passing level in fast movements even surpasses that of Barcelona. This he had to admit.
Do you know how many people can use dogs to train players to pass the ball? Guardiola only knows one winner...
If Lazio takes the ball in Hou Chan, start to organize the attack. If Barcelona goes up to siege, there is little chance of being able to steal the ball directly. It is very likely that Lazio will use fast passing and cutting to send the football to the front.
While Barcelona's players are all scrambling in the frontcourt, there will naturally be more space in the backcourt.
Once caught by Lazio at that time, it may be fatal.
Guardiola dare not take this risk.
Barcelona lost two goals in the first leg and looked like they needed to attack. But in fact more need to defend.
Because Barcelona's opponents are not the kind of team with weak attack power, if you give them a chance, they have a high possibility of scoring goals.
If Barcelona completely ignore the defense. If you rush out to attack Lazio, what if Lazio gets the ball first?
Even if it's not the first goal, but the second goal, as long as the goal is scored...
Lazio scored a goal, which offset Barcelona's away goal advantage in the first round.
So first of all don't lose the ball. Only by not conceding a goal can Barcelona have a chance to win this game.
Although he played offensive football. Although he also broke up with Chang Sheng because of his disagreement, he still agrees with some of Chang Sheng's ideas.
That is, all offenses originate from defense, without defense, there is no offense. The better the offense, the better the defense.
Take La Liga and Serie A, the two leagues Guardiola is most familiar with, for example.
Just find a few seasons, from the 2006-2007 season to the 2008-2009 season. In these three seasons, the team with the most goals is the team with the fewest goals conceded.
Last season, the 2008-2009 season, Barcelona was the league champion, scoring 105 goals and only conceding 35 goals. In the 2007-2008 season, Real Madrid was the league champion. They scored 84 goals and conceded 36 goals. They were also the team with the most goals and the least conceded goals. In the 2006-2007 season, although Barcelona was not the league champion, their 78 goals were also the team that scored the most goals in the season, and 33 conceded goals were the team that conceded the fewest goals.
Not to mention Serie A, Lazio wins the league championship every year, and is the team with the most goals and the fewest conceded goals every year.
A team that can't do a good job on defense can't do a good job on offense.
This is normal.
Modern football is a whole, and both defense and offense must pay attention to the whole. It is no longer like before, defense is defense, and offense is offense. There is defense in offense, and offense in defense, which is the development trend of modern football.
Barcelona must first do a good job in defense before they can talk about offense. Otherwise it will only be a fiasco.

Players from both sides soon met in the channel.
This time even Falcao did not take the initiative to find his former teammates.
Because he knows very well the atmosphere in the Barcelona team this week.
As a former Lazio player, he had to keep a low profile with his tail between his legs.
Lazio and Real Madrid have surpassed each other and become the opponents that Barcelona players most want to beat.
Before such an important game, he ran to chat with Lazio players, how would he feel in the eyes of his teammates?
So Falcao is very low-key.
Not only Falcao, the players of both teams are like this.
Although the two sides stand side by side. But they didn't look sideways, and they didn't look at each other.
There was no communication between the two sides until they entered the court.
When the players began to enter the field, the live broadcast was just introducing the rosters of both sides.
At the beginning, it was Lazio's starting list. Before a name was called, there would be merciless boos from Barcelona fans.
The last one to be named was Lazio coach Chang Sheng, who naturally received the most boos.
He and Barcelona can be said to have blood feuds.
So even if Real Madrid slapped themselves to find Chang Sheng, I hope he can return to Real Madrid.
And Barcelona never mentioned it.
Chang Sheng sat on the coach's bench under the boos all over the sky, turned a deaf ear to the boos from the stands, and did not respond.
Next is the list of Barcelona players. The treatment with Lazio is completely different.
Every Barcelona player whose name is reported will get a huge cheer from the Barcelona fans in the stands.
Barcelona fans wanted to use this method to inject strength into the team and at the same time intimidate the Lazio players.
tell them:
You are fighting against the great Barcelona at Camp Nou!
※ ※ ※
Cheers from the Barcelona fans. The cheers even overwhelmed the Champions League theme song played live.
It wasn't until the end of the game that the sound stopped for a while.
When the reporters in the media seats heard such a voice, their colors changed.
They are worried about whether Lazio can still play normally in such an environment.
Plus they didn't have a good rest the night before. How good this state can be...is also doubtful.
In the hearts of these reporters, this game may be very difficult for Lazio...
Catalan journalists heard the cheers, and their faces were filled with pride.
This is the strength of Barcelona at home! How about it? Is it more shocking than your Rome Olympic Stadium? The Stadio Olimpico, which can accommodate 70,000 people, was not even full at that time... What a shame!
With such an atmosphere at home, Barcelona's reporters firmly believe that the team will be able to complete a major reversal.

Lazio lost the toss in the coin toss, but they got the kick-off.
Cavani and Gotze stood in the middle circle with footballs under their feet.
Wait for the game to start.
"The boss is right. It's really spectacular..." Gotze looked at the opposite stand, which happened to be the pattern of the Barcelona team flag.
"Feeling the pressure, Mario?" Cavani asked him.
Gotze shook his head: "Of course not. I just think that Barcelona fans are a bit like Dortmund fans. Dortmund fans also like to put various patterns on the stands of the Westfalenstadion. However, Dortmund fans Can keep putting pressure on the visitors, can Barcelona?"
"Whether they do or not, they have to lose," Cavani said. "Just for yesterday. No, they didn't let me sleep well this morning. They have to lose too!"
Gotze laughed loudly: "That's right, that's right! I think so too! Anyone who disturbs our sleep will die!"
※ ※ ※
The Barcelona players Falcao, Messi and Pedro standing opposite all saw Gotze laughing.
They looked at each other.
I don't understand why Gotze can still laugh before such a crucial game?
And laughing so happily, it's not like pretending at all...
What did they talk about that made Gotze so happy?
Isn't this a game played under a lot of pressure?
Why do they feel that Lazio is quite relaxed?
Is this their psychological warfare, or do they really think so?
Just when a group of Barcelona players were puzzled, the referee's whistle sounded.
Game start!
