MM Racing Chapter 229
Chapter 229
The frenzied celebrations lasted for a long time before the Manchester City players collected their emotions and returned to their own half to restart the game.
Messi stood in front of the ball with a slightly disappointed expression, and seemed to have a somewhat dazed expression.
This is probably what he has been criticized by some fans!
Compared with Ronaldo's courage to stand up and motivate his teammates at key moments, Messi's silent performance is easily attacked.
In fact, personal personality problems really do not mean that they can be changed.
Messi is humble, not rebellious, and Ronaldo is naturally not a type.
He was even the absolute core, but he was never the leader of the team!
At Barca, Puyol was the leader who could motivate his teammates.
In Argentina, Messi has never been a leader.
Earlier, Riquelme took him, and by the 10th World Cup it was Ayala, but at that time, the big names in the team gathered, and few people listened to Messi!
So Messi's silence in Argentina is entirely predictable.
Of course, it was only later, when everyone began to fight for Messi, that loose Argentina became united and finally stood on top of the world!
In any case, it is not easy to expect Messi to achieve a big reversal during this period.
Besides, when Manchester City really came to the game?
Maybe Argentina hasn't done anything yet, and Manchester City have scored again!
The referee blew a whistle, Messi dialed the ball to Pedro, and then rushed forward according to Enrique's established tactics.
In the absence of the latest instructions from Enrique, even if Messi knows that this style of play does not have much effect, it must still be carried out.
Sure enough, Barca still kicked off this set.
Neymar and Zabaleta constantly physically fought each other, and in the end, Neymar still suffered a loss in the confrontation against Zabaleta and failed to grab the ball.
The ball is back in the hands of Manchester City.
And just now, Pellegrini has made a new tactical arrangement.
Zabaleta pushed the ball forward and sent it to the feet of Keylor Navas.
The Spanish winger and the incoming Yaya Toure made a wall-hitting combination, dodging Pedro's diagonal charge.
Then, go straight to the front!
In the next second, amid the cries of Manchester City fans, Xu Ning unbelievably appeared in the trapezoidal frame where Barca's shape remained intact.
What is he going to do?
In the eyes of many people who have a clear understanding of Barça's tactics, Xu Ning is simply throwing himself into the net!
Sure enough, as soon as he saw Xu Ning's action, Barça immediately began to tighten his mouth.
Except for Pique who remained in the box to keep an eye on Dzeko, the other four players immediately contracted and surrounded and pressed towards Xu Ning in a diamond shape.
Seeing it, Xu Ning didn't have any room to dribble!
But at this moment, Xu Ning suddenly stopped and slammed the ball backwards.
The ball broke through the not yet completely closed void between Busquets and Mascherano and reached the feet of Yaya Toure.
And the next second, Yaya Toure immediately sent the ball diagonally to the left forward.
Keylor Navas got the ball again!
At this moment, because the defensive space was compressed to Xu Ning just now, the defense of Barca's two wings has completely become empty!
Navas carried the ball forward unbridled, until he met Alba's defense, and finally slowed down.
But at this time, Barca's defensive position has been completely torn to pieces.
The four people in the diamond-shaped position immediately scattered, looking for the position where they were most urgently needed.
The defensive loopholes have been exposed, how can it be so easy to save them.
After Navas shook the passing space with a continuous feint, he passed a low flat ball directly into the box!
Dzeko's sudden front thrust flung off Pique and finished a poke in front.
Valdés, who lowered his center of gravity and fell, failed to stop the ball and watched it enter the goal he guarded!
Scored again!
The excited Dzeko directly took off his shirt, waved it in his hand, and roared and rushed to the stands.
The Etihad Stadium is once again in a terrifying carnival atmosphere!
This goal simply drove all the fans crazy!
Xu Ning and his teammates laughed and ran over and joined the celebrations.
A two-goal lead means Barca have fallen into absolute passivity.
If they want to make a difference, they will inevitably have to make adjustments, and then it may be an opportunity for Manchester City.
The narrator's voice was filled with uncontrollable excitement and trembling.
"I have to admit that Barca's tactical arrangement against Manchester City in this game has completely failed!"
"Although Enrique's arrangement is original, the practicality has been proven in the competition and it obviously does not work!"
"It seems to completely restrain Xu Ning and limit Xu Ning's room to play, but you know, other players in Manchester City are by no means white-collar salaries!"
'After Xu Ning attracted City's absolute defensive focus, the other players had plenty of room to play.
"It's like this goal just now, Xu Ning definitely has to take a large part of the credit, there are four defensive players around him!"
'It was only after he attracted the defence that Yaya Toure sent the ball to the wing, creating chances for Keylor Navas' cross and Dzeko's shot.
"Barça has to change!"
"If they can't limit Xu Ning in another way, then the suspense between the two teams will probably be ended by Manchester City in the first leg!"
.......
Even if Barça fans hate such explanations, they have to admit that he is right!
Barça's problems have come to light.
That's how to defend Xu Ning!
Having abandoned the pass-and-control style of play, Barca no longer have conventional scoring means and can only rely on the individual play of Messi and Neymar.
But the problem is that before the two can play, Barca's defense has collapsed first!
Losing two goals in a row proves that this way of defending is not good!
Without adjustments, the suspense will really end in this first scene.
Check out Pellegrini's infuriating approach!
There was no need to even stand on the sidelines to direct the game, Shi Shiran sat back on the bench, easily watched the game, and looked like ordinary fans.
How controlled does this have to be to be so easy?
Enrique, on the other hand, was so worried on the sidelines that his facial features were screwed together.
If he was born with a face like this, he would definitely be treated as a deformed child....
Enrique is really a little convinced!
Seeing that elaborate tactics must be overthrown, Enrique is not a hesitant person.
Back on the bench, Xavi and Andres Iniesta to warm up, Barca must get back to their most regular style of play.
And seeing Xavi and Andres Inesta warming up, Manchester City fans did not hesitate to give them the biggest boo!
Of course, this boo is more for Enrique!
It was completely a bizarre defensive tactic designed by thinking he was smart before mocking him.
Now the defensive tactics have failed, and they have to change back to regular tactics, the team is still two goals behind, don't mock who you mock!
