Chapter 398 Defensive counterattack? !

Guardiola frowned.

He is also looking at Griezmann!

He thought of everything in this game, but he didn't expect that this game... Gao Bo actually focused his attack on Griezmann? !

Guardiola has seen many games of Gao Bo's team. He believes that Gao Bo is a head coach who emphasizes the whole and advocates the coordination of passing.

Therefore, his arrangement in this game is also focused on cutting off the connection between Atlético de Madrid's frontcourt players.

And this also objectively gave Griezmann room to break through.

Of course, it is undeniable that Griezmann's goal is indeed quite wonderful. If it were not for Barcelona's goal, Guardiola would probably applaud this goal.

Less than two minutes into the game, Barcelona conceded the ball.

This situation is extremely unfavorable.

Guardiola has his sights set on Messi.

To a certain extent, Gao Bo and Guardiola thought about it.

Guardiola is also preparing to give full play to Messi's personal abilities in this game. In such a close contest, Guardiola is too aware of the value of a superstar.

Before the game, Guardiola thought that Barcelona's biggest advantage over Atletico Madrid was that they had Messi, the world's number one superstar.

But judging from Griezmann's recent series of performances, the French boy may also be on the road to approaching Messi...

Guardiola took a deep breath. He did not expect Griezmann to break out in this way in this game, but this did not prevent him from adjusting his tactics.

The ball is still the main axis of Barcelona, ​​but at the same time of the ball, this game... Messi's proportion will be more important!

The telecast also gave Messi a close-up.

The little flea was expressionless. He stood in the middle circle and prepared to tee off with Villa.

Less than two minutes after the opening, Messi contributed a shot, but Griezmann scored directly.

Messi looked at Griezmann, who was also not very tall not far away.

The youngster, who is three or four years younger than him, made Messi feel a touch of competitive pressure.

The performance of the other party just now was really great, and the competitiveness in Messi's heart was inspired!

He looked at the opponent's goal.

"Long time to play! David!"

Messi suddenly said.

Villa was stunned for a moment, he didn't know why Messi suddenly said such a word without a brain.

Messi stopped talking.

Is the game still long?

Villa is chewing Messi's words.

Of course, Villa understands the meaning of this sentence. The opponent scored an early goal and there is still a lot of time left in the game, which also means that Barcelona has enough time to tie the score and even overtake.

But shouldn't this sentence usually be said impassively?

And what Messi just said was very calm, as if he was saying "the weather is good today".

.....

The game resumes soon.

The current situation has forced Barcelona to attack. They began to press up and try to squeeze Atletico Madrid's defense back from the midfield as much as possible. Until Atlético Madrid is squashed, Barcelona can be in the area near the top of the penalty area. Got a chance.

But of course Atletico Madrid will not let its formation be squashed. In the midfield, Atletico Madrid's players use active movement and compact formation to stalemate with Barcelona. Get the ball back from Barcelona.

Villa quickly learned what Messi meant when he said "there's still a long time".

In the seventh minute of the game, Messi got the ball on the right. He threw the ball with his right foot the first time he saw the ball. After the football passed by Raul Garcia, Messi suddenly accelerated and got rid of Raul. Garcia.

After that, the left back Sandro came up, he lowered his center of gravity, and fought and retreated.

Messi took the ball to the middle and cut in horizontally.

Sandro hurried over to prevent Messi from directly cutting inside and shooting.

However Sandro moved, Messi moved too!

Messi suddenly pushed the ball to the outside again, and the ball passed Sandro's left foot.

Sandro hurriedly twisted his body again, and at this time Messi passed by him like a gust of wind! !

Sandro makes a tackle, but he doesn't get the ball! !

"Messi!! Messi is gone!!!!"

The commentator exclaimed, and the fans in the stands began to cheer loudly!

Gao Bo on the sidelines immediately became nervous. It seemed that Guardiola had the same idea as him!

Messi quickly broke in from the outside, and he made his way into the penalty area.

The cheers in the stands are boiling!

"Messi has entered the penalty area!!!!"

In the penalty area, Boateng was stuck, but when facing Messi, Boateng was still a little nervous.

"Watch closely, Jerome!!"

Godin behind him reminded Boateng! On the other hand, Juanfran also shrunk back to the penalty area, and Kante and Modric also returned to the penalty area to participate in the defense.

Boateng stared at Messi's feet. Messi didn't have any dazzling fake moves. He just controlled the rhythm of dribbling the ball, but Boateng didn't dare to take it lightly.

He is facing Messi!

Messi's foot movements suddenly became faster. He first made a fake move to break through from the outside, and then suddenly changed direction. When Boateng reacted, Messi had already shot directly in the penalty area! ! !

"Beautiful!!! Kante's Blocking!!!"

The narrator's voice rang out.

When Messi cut inside, Kante, who rushed into the penalty area, fell directly to the ground, his body crossed over to block Messi's shooting line, and the ball hit him directly and went out of the bottom line!

Barcelona corner!

Iniesta takes the corner, a tactical corner.

Messi moved to the left again.

This time Juanfran was passed by Messi, and Messi passed the ball back to the top of the penalty area arc near the bottom line.

Pedro took the initiative to give up the position to Messi after Messi reached the left, and he came to the middle himself.

And this time the switch allowed Pedro to get a kicker shot.

At the top of the arc in the penalty area, Pedro volleyed with his right foot!

The football was thrown by Navas and returned to the penalty area, after which Boateng cleared the ball.

Barcelona controlled the ball in the backcourt and continued to attack!

Messi is in the middle again!

Messi passed the ball to Xavi in ​​the middle, and then inserted himself in the middle.

Xavi's pick came in quickly, Messi then plugged in to catch the ball and volleyed the ball, and the ball went over Navas's head and entered the goal.

Before the stands could cheer, the referee's whistle sounded first.

It turned out that Messi hooked Godin with his foot before receiving the ball, and he fouled first.

Such a penalty naturally made the Barcelona fans quite dissatisfied. They didn't care whether Messi had fouled or not. In the eyes of the fans, this was a goal that the referee blew away from Barcelona.

Guardiola was very excited on the sidelines, and the words that came out of his mouth immediately made the fourth official concerned.

Gao Bo can't stand a little bit. Barcelona's offensive has become more and more fierce during this period. Messi's threat level on the court is too great, which makes Atletico Madrid have to defend!

"Defense!! Back to defense!!!"

Gao Bo handed Raul Garcia to the sidelines.

"Don't give them room to break through, especially Messi!"

The solution that Gao Bo thought of was not to arrange a few players to specifically mark Messi, but to immediately form a tight defensive formation in the backcourt!

Atletico Madrid is now one goal ahead, which means that Atletico Madrid has an advantage strategically.

Since Atlético de Madrid can carry out an airtight pressing in the frontcourt, now they have moved this set to the front of their penalty area, which is also not uncomfortable.

When the game resumed, the Barcelona players quickly found that their offense had hit a wall!

A wall at the front of the restricted area!

Atletico Madrid actually immediately retreated as a whole and played a defensive counterattack?

Guardiola's head started to ache....

If it is facing the opponent's intensive defense, and in fact, Guardiola also knows that Atletico Madrid can be tight in the front of the penalty area. He has studied Atletico Madrid.

Atlético de Madrid rarely played this kind of defensive counterattack directly back to the penalty area before, but this game was different.

Since it is already in the lead, Atletico Madrid chooses to play defensive counterattacks... Barcelona also don't have much way to take them.
