I build a giant in the Premier League

Chapter 253 Peak Offensive Battle! This guy is amazing! Tonight, we are witnessing history! [Subscribe]

On the evening of August 5th, 19:19.

Allianz Arena, Munich, Germany.

When Italian referee Rizzoli blew the whistle to start the game, Spanish striker David Villa, standing in the center circle, kicked the ball to Messi.

Messi passed the ball back to Busquets who was in the fourth position.

At almost the same time, Bayswater Chinese's front trident moved forward quickly.

This world-renowned Champions League final has finally officially kicked off!
Amid the cheers of 6 fans in the stadium, the two teams entered into a fast-paced fighting mode from the start.

As soon as Busquets stopped the ball, Lewandowski rushed in front of him, forcing the Spaniard to pass it back again.

But Bayswater Chinese's front trident also continued to press forward along the ball's path.

When Puyol stopped the ball, he found that he had no way to pass the ball.

Lewandowski's position made Puyol afraid to pass the ball to Pique and Busquets; Di Maria followed Adriano.

Alves was too far away again.

In the passing of the ball from the back line, this kind of long-distance pass is very taboo.

Whether it is a horizontal pass or a back pass, it is very easy to make mistakes.

What's more, there is the incredibly fast Gareth Bale on Alves' side.

There was no one defending Puyol, but he is a central defender.

The Barcelona captain did not hesitate and chose to dribble the ball forward himself.

But just when Puyol wanted to move forward slowly to give his teammates time to run, Lewandowski saw the opportunity and approached quickly from the side.

Puyol had no choice but to speed up and move forward.

When he was out of the 30-meter area, he found that Modric in front was also rushing towards him quickly.

Under the pressure of being attacked from both sides, Puyol had no choice but to pass the ball straight to Iniesta in front.

After Modric made the steal, Iniesta's position was left empty, but Matic also made the steal immediately.

Xiaobai didn't stick to the ball, but wanted to pass it directly behind him to Villa on the left.

As a result, the ball was a little too big and went straight out of the sideline.

Out of bounds for the Chinese in Bayswater!
At this time, the game had only been going on for 15 seconds!
The entire Allianz Arena was filled with cheers and applause from Bayswater's Chinese fans.

At the beginning, the two sides fought with real swords and guns.

To some extent, this also reflects the tactical play of the two teams in this game.

The content of this 15-second game is actually very rich!
……

Guardiola sat in the coaching booth on the sidelines and frowned.

The starting lineup of this game was actually not unexpected to either side.

Before the game, Guardiola and Yang Cheng chatted for a long time on the sidelines.

But when the real game started, both sides fought with bayonets and showed no mercy.

Although it was only 15 seconds, the starting tactics of the Chinese in Bayswater still made Guardiola see a lot.

"That's what I told you before, we can control the football, but we may not be able to control the rhythm!"

Guardiola's tone was full of helplessness.

Yang Cheng is a very ruthless and experienced head coach, and does not look like a young man in his early thirties at all.

The most important thing is that the players under his command have played under him for many years and are well aware of his tactical ideas.

For example, the moment when Lewandowski pressed Puyol just now.

I'm afraid there is no other team in the entire European football that can press like this.

Guardiola played football, so he knew Puyol's situation at the time.

The Barcelona captain is pushing the ball forward.

Lewandowski deliberately let him out, and then waited until Puyol passed Busquets' level before Lewandowski suddenly sped up to steal the ball back.

At this time, Puyol had no way to pass the ball to his right side, which was Busquets' side.

All passing routes were blocked by Lewandowski.

If you want to pass the ball back to Pique, you need to turn around.

But as soon as he turned around, Lewandowski came after him.

In addition, Modric also cooperated very well, rushing up suddenly and disrupting Puyol's rhythm.

So, the ball just now looked like Puyol had planned to make a straight pass, but in fact, his rhythm was disrupted by the opponent and he was forced to pass the ball forward faster.

Moreover, that was the only passing route.

The end result was that Iniesta was also confused.

When the Chinese in Bayswater threw the ball out of bounds, Barcelona immediately started to counterattack on the spot.

At this time, the pace of the game was already very fast.

The football was in the area from 30 meters to the center line of the Bayswater Chinese. The ball was fought over and over again, and the possession of the ball changed hands frequently.

It was not until one minute later that Barcelona managed to keep the ball.

But at this time, the ball had to be passed back to our own half and handed over to the two central defenders.

The Chinese in Bayswater took advantage of this momentum and continued to push forward. They began to cross the center line and press in the frontcourt.

"They played very aggressively tonight!" Vilanova also felt a headache.

From the beginning to now, Barcelona has not been able to bring the game tempo back to the slow pace they are most familiar with.

So there are a lot of passing errors.

Although the current ball possession data is of little reference value, preliminary estimates suggest it should be 60:40.

Under the pressure from the Chinese in Bayswater, Barcelona even had to retreat to their own 30-meter area.

When Pique passed the ball to Puyol at 1 meters, Guardiola noticed that Lewandowski retreated to the bottom of the center circle in disappointment.

But it seemed that the Chinese players in Bayswater had no intention of retreating to their own half.

Puyol had no choice but to continue moving forward.

Just like at the beginning.

Adriano and Alves on both wingers have already moved forward to a relatively forward position.

But this time, Messi in front retreated.

And he retreated very far back, directly to the same position as Busquets to receive the ball.

Obviously, the Argentine superstar also noticed the difficulty Barcelona had in passing the ball from midfield to backcourt.

"If we play like this, Messi will become no threat!" Guardiola shook his head.

How much of a threat can Messi, who is far away from the opponent's defense, penalty area and goal, pose?

This is not the most lethal Messi at all!
But even if Messi retreated, he still couldn't pass the ball.

As soon as he got the ball, he was marked by Modric and was forced to pass it back to Puyol.

The Barcelona captain once again made a straight pass, finding Adriano who was advancing to the winger position.

But as soon as Adriano got the ball, Piszczek interfered from behind.

When the Brazilian tried to turn around and get rid of the ball, Piszczek decisively poked the ball away from his feet.

Fortunately, Iniesta and others immediately launched a counterattack near the center line.

The game suddenly fell into the fast pace of the first minute.

"This rhythm is not good for us!" Vilanova was a little troubled.

Guardiola glanced at his assistant and smiled bitterly in his heart.

Before the game, Vilanova strongly suggested adopting this kind of ball-control style of play. Now, facing the pressure brought by the opponent's reckless running, the rhythm of the game has been brought to the fast pace that the Premier League is most familiar with.

What's the point of Vilanova's words?
Guardiola is well aware that ball possession is gradually becoming a curse for Barcelona.

It's a very strange feeling.

Without the ball at their feet, Barcelona seems to not know how to play football.

Or it should be said that Barcelona cannot adapt to the kind of game where they cannot control the ball.

This is extremely fatal!

Guardiola stood up from his seat, quickly walked to the sidelines, and shouted to the players on the field, signaling them not to focus on the left and pass the ball more to the right.

Pull back and forth more often!
This was the first on-the-spot command he made in the entire game.

And the facts also proved that in the next attack, Barcelona created a good opportunity on the right, which was directly given to the right side outside the penalty area of ​​Bayswater Chinese.

When Pedro got the ball on the right and made a one-two pass with Alves, the Brazilian passed it directly back to the right bottom line of the penalty area.

But just as Pedro was moving forward quickly, Thiago Silva turned around and chased back.

As the two were chasing, Thiago Silva first confronted Pedro, making it impossible for the Barcelona player to catch up with the ball.

The ball went straight out of the baseline.

But Pedro also fell on the penalty area line.

……

"We can see from the game footage that Thiago Silva walked over and tried to pull Pedro up."

"Barca's players also chased after him and separated Thiago Silva."

"Xavi is negotiating with the referee."

"From the slow motion footage, it was a very normal physical confrontation, but Pedro fell on the penalty area line."

"See how the Italian referee makes the decision."

"Rizzoli signalled to the Barca players not to get close and no foul was called."

"He thought it was a normal, successful defense."

"There was a mixture of boos and cheers at the scene."

"Goal kick for the Bayswater Chinese!"

"Looking at the slow-motion replay from another angle, we can clearly see that Thiago Silva's physical confrontation was not very strong. He just wanted to fend off Pedro, which was a reasonable physical confrontation."

"This really doesn't constitute a foul or a penalty!"

……

After Courtois positioned the ball, he slowly stepped back.

Courtois, who just turned 20, is participating in the Champions League final for the first time.

It would be a lie to say that I didn't feel any tension or pressure at all.

But he didn't think these had any impact on him.

After taking a deep breath and looking at the running position of his teammates in front of him, Courtois quickly ran forward and kicked the ball forward with a big foot.

The goal kick went directly to the left side of the frontcourt.

This was obviously beyond Barcelona's expectations.

Gareth Bale retreated to the outside of Barcelona's 30-meter area and headed the ball back to the center line, passing it to Marcelo.

The Brazilian didn't stop the ball and kicked it back with his left foot to Toni Kroos on the left side of the center line.

The German midfielder kicked the ball forward to the left side of the frontcourt.

Lewandowski ran from the middle, met the ball, and made a diagonal pass behind him.

The football went towards the bottom line on the left side of Barcelona's penalty area.

At this time, Gareth Bale had already started and sprinted forward at an extremely fast speed. He instantly left Alves behind and rushed all the way to the left side of Barcelona's penalty area.

At this moment, all the fans in the stadium cheered.

After Gareth Bale caught up with the ball on the left side of the penalty area, facing Pique who came out to defend, he made a move to cross the ball from the bottom, but suddenly stopped and dribbled the ball, pushed the ball sideways with his right foot, shook off Pique, and after breaking into the left side of the penalty area, he shot with his right foot.

On the left side of the penalty area, the power of the Welshman's right foot shot was obviously much weaker than that of his left foot.

Therefore, this shot failed to control the momentum of the ball and went straight away.

But this was the first shot of the game for both teams.

Happens at 3 minutes and 11 seconds.

“This game is really exciting!”

"From the beginning, every minute and every second was very thrilling and tense."

"The game was very fast-paced and both teams were very well prepared."

"Therefore, the technical and tactical content of this game and the content of the game are very detailed and rich."

"It's clear that both teams are working hard to target each other's strengths and weaknesses."

"This is the contest between the two strongest teams in world football today!"

……

The game starts again.

Barcelona did not kick the ball into the goal with a long kick, but wanted to advance the ball layer by layer by passing the ball from the backcourt.

But more importantly, they hope to slow down the pace of the game as much as possible through their skillful passing and controlling the ball.

In this kind of fast-paced and high-intensity game, the Chinese in Bayswater are indeed exhausted, but Barcelona themselves are also under great pressure.

What's more, for Barcelona, ​​their players are older than the Chinese in Bayswater.

Most importantly, the Chinese players from the Premier League, Bayswater, are better adapted to this fast-paced offense and defense than Barcelona.

Therefore, if this fight really comes down to it, it is not certain who will have the advantage.

But the Bayswater Chinese didn't want them to do that.

As soon as they saw that Barcelona did not kick the ball towards the goal, Toni Kroos and Modric immediately called on their teammates to press forward.

When the ball fell to the feet of Barcelona's left-back Adriano, Di Maria suddenly sped up and pressed forward, forcing the Brazilian to pass the ball forward with a long foot.

Busquets and Toni Kroos both jumped up at the same time to compete for the header, and the ball fell to Iniesta's feet.

But almost at the same time, Modric approached Iniesta.

Two players with similar styles and body shapes were fighting each other on the right side of the bottom center circle in Barcelona's half.

In the end, Modric was more tenacious. During the fight, he took the lead and kicked the ball to Piszczek.

Piszczek quickly passed the ball back to Pepe.

Barcelona immediately launched a counterattack.

Pepe passed the ball to Matic, who then passed it to Piszczek.

At this time, the Polish right back was free and he quickly pushed the ball forward along the right side.

Di Maria went to the flank and Piszczek went to the outside, the two moving forward side by side.

After rushing into Barcelona's 30-meter area, Piszczek passed the ball to Di Maria.

The Argentine stopped the ball and cut inside, but was blocked by Busquets who returned to defense in time and was forced to pass the ball back to Modric.

After Modric dribbled past Iniesta, he made a low pass with his left foot to Lewandowski in the 30-meter area.

The Poles were then assigned to the left wing.

Gareth Bale's side is left empty.

The Welsh player rushed forward with the ball and when he reached the left side of Barcelona's penalty area, he made an abrupt stop and then suddenly started again.

Bale rushed past Xavi but failed to get past the second defender Alves and was forced to stop near the baseline and pass back to Marcelo on the outside.

Barcelona also obviously strengthened its defense on Gareth Bale on the left.

Marcelo had no other options and was forced to pass the ball back to Toni Kroos on the left flank.

At this time, the attack of the Chinese in Bayswater had already reached the periphery of Barcelona's penalty area.

Toni Kroos continued to dribble the ball forward and suddenly made a diagonal pass.

Modric quickly moved forward, stopped the ball at the front of the arc, and passed it straight behind him.

Lewandowski quickly moved forward and received the ball into a one-on-one situation.

But just as the Pole was about to shoot against Valdés, the linesman raised his flag and the referee blew the whistle.

Offside!
At this time, the game had only been going on for 4 minutes.

“It’s so tense and exciting!”

"In just four minutes, the two teams faced off against each other and launched a very exciting offensive battle!"

"Although Barcelona had a slight advantage in ball possession, the Chinese in Bayswater had more threatening attacks."

“It’s really a very exciting peak showdown!”

……

Yang Cheng has been standing on the sidelines watching since the game started.

The pace of the game is very fast.

It's even a bit overwhelming.

The content of the competition is also very complicated.

This is definitely a wonderful offensive battle that all fans want to see!

Moreover, it is an offensive battle between two teams with extremely high technical and tactical levels!
But for the head coach and the players, it is really brain-burning and stressful.

The Chinese from Bayswater have already entered Barcelona's penalty area twice.

Judging from the current start, Yang Cheng can proudly say that his tactics worked!

He knew that Barcelona would want to seize possession of the ball and use it to wear down the Bayswater Chinese.

This is what Barca does best.

And there is a key point here, that is scoring a goal!
If Barcelona scored a goal first, the game would become very difficult.

Guardiola's team will continue to control the ball, even directly controlling the game until the end of time.

If you don't believe it, just look at how Bosque's Spain played in the World Cup.

Every game is won by only 1 goal!

Therefore, Yang Cheng absolutely does not want to see Barcelona score first.

Just now, Gareth Bale cut in from the right and shot, but it went wide.

But it was a pity that Lewandowski missed this one-on-one opportunity.

He should have been more patient.

It’s still a bit early to start!
On the field, Barcelona quickly took a free kick, trying to launch a quick counterattack.

Two passes went straight to Messi's feet.

The Argentine pushed the ball forward and went straight across the center line.

But at this time, there were already three Bayswater Chinese defensive players around Messi, forcing the Argentine to pass the ball to Pedro on the right.

Marcelo stuck to Pedro, forcing him to pass the ball horizontally to Messi again.

But Pedro's pass was not good and was intercepted by Toni Kroos.

After snatching the ball, Toni Kroos launched another counterattack and wanted to make a long diagonal pass to the right side of the frontcourt.

Di Maria was moving forward at top speed, and just when he was about to catch up with the target, Puyol suddenly rushed out, fell to the ground and tackled the ball, sending it out of bounds.

Bayswater Chinese throw-in.

There was warm applause again.

Piszczek stepped forward quickly and threw the ball out of bounds with force.

Lewandowski used his body to hold Puyol back, then stopped the ball with his chest and passed it back to Piszczek.

The Pole passed it to Di Maria, who then passed it to Modric.

After a feint, Modric sent a straight pass with the outside of his foot.

Di Maria quickly moved forward to the right side of the penalty area and once again penetrated Barcelona's defense.

The moment he received the ball, Di Maria felt the close marking of Pique who came over to assist, and his left foot was restricted.

The Argentine adjusted his right foot and shot directly.

But Valdes was in a very good position this time, blocking Di Maria's shooting angle and holding the ball directly in his arms.

At this time, the game had only lasted 5 minute!

But before the fans at the scene could recover, Valdes got up from the ground, ran out quickly and threw the ball hard to Busquets.

Then pass it to Iniesta in front.

Xiaobai advanced with the ball and passed it to David Villa on the left rib. When Villa received the ball, Pepe fouled him decisively from the side.

Barcelona was given a free kick more than 30 meters away from the goal.

Pepe's foul was timely, preventing Messi, Iniesta, Pedro and others from catching up.

Yang Cheng walked to the sidelines and applauded Pepe loudly.

"Well done, Pepe!"

Seeing Pepe looking at him, Yang Cheng gave him a thumbs up from a distance.

……

"The two teams played against each other at such a fast pace and so many times, but the defense of Bayswater Chinese did not make any mistakes!"

In the stands, Ferguson, Wenger, Capello and others sat together and enjoyed this wonderful game.

Ferguson was clearly particularly impressed by the Bayswater Chinese's defence.

"Pepe's foul just now was very timely, and his action was very precise. It was a foul, but he didn't get a card. This kid is really a god now!" Capello's eyes were filled with envy.

England doesn’t have a reliable central defender now!

"This is definitely the most exciting start I have seen so far!" Wenger also exclaimed.

"In just five minutes, the two sides kicked the ball so many times. The key is that the game was so rich in content. I guess this will become a research material for Coverciano!"

Several people around were famous coaches in the world of football, but they all nodded in unison.

Although it was only 5 minutes, the content of the game was so much and so rich.

It feels like taking all the highlights from 20 minutes of other football matches, or even the entire game, and compiling them into 5 minutes.

Moreover, every move in the game reflected the targeted tactics of the two teams and their two head coaches.

Guardiola just wants to control the ball and slow down the pace of the game.

Even though Barcelona does not have a clear advantage in ball possession, their offense is not threatening and they make many passing errors.

But everyone present knew that as long as Guardiola's team controlled the ball and the tempo, the Chinese in Bayswater would be doomed!
Yang Cheng's team kept trying to attack and create opportunities, and they didn't cling to the ball at all.

"In fact, Yang Cheng probably wants to use this game to tell us how to defeat Barcelona fairly!" Wenger feels that he knows Yang Cheng quite well.

"This kid is still quite proud at heart." Ferguson said with a smile.

As a bystander, he could certainly laugh.

But if you are in the game, ask yourself, no matter which of the two teams you meet tonight, Manchester United will not be able to withstand it.

At that time, he would definitely not be able to laugh.

"But the method he used is actually only possible for the Chinese in Bayswater. It's not even certain whether they can persist until the end of the game, right?" Capello's vision is still very sharp.

Everyone nodded.

Without such strength, if the Chinese in Bayswater had learned such tactics, they would have been beaten into a sieve by Barcelona long ago.

Apart from anything else, the midfield and backcourt defense of the Bayswater Chinese can be said to have zero mistakes so far!
Just for this point, which team can do it when facing Barcelona?

While the famous coaches were communicating, opportunities were created again on the field.

After several consecutive passes by the Bayswater Chinese, Piszczek, Modric and Di Maria in the frontcourt completed a beautiful three-person pass and cut cooperation.

Di Maria broke into the penalty area on the right side, received a straight pass from Piszczek, and then passed the ball to the middle with his right foot.

Lewandowski quickly moved forward and headed the ball into the goal, beating Puyol.

After Valdes blocked the ball with both hands, he took the lead to hold the ball in his arms before Lewandowski followed up with a shot.

The entire Allianz Arena suddenly cheered again!
More than 30,000 Bayswater Chinese fans at the scene were cheering wildly.

"7 minutes!"

Wenger looked at the time and exclaimed, "Barcelona hasn't had a single shot on goal so far!"

What the professor meant by this was that the Chinese in Bayswater had already made several consecutive shots?
"Yang Cheng's opening attack was truly amazing. Barcelona's defense may not be able to hold up!"

Ferguson has also played many games against Barcelona and is very familiar with Barcelona's defense.

"That's right." Capello also agreed.

"Yang Cheng's strategy is very clever. As long as the defense holds and they continue to use this kind of quick counterattack and attack, they will definitely have a chance to break through Barcelona's defense and even score a goal!"

Barcelona's defense has actually been penetrated several times.

Bayswater Chinese were just a little bit away from scoring a goal.

The game was really tense.

Everyone was fascinated by the sight.

Including these battle-hardened famous coaches.

They even believed that in today's world football, only the Bayswater Chinese and Barcelona could play such a game.

……

When the game slowly entered the 9th minute, the pace of the game was still very fast.

Barcelona still failed to create any shooting opportunities.

Bayswater Chinese also did not make any mistakes in their midfield and backcourt defense.

When consecutive passes in the midfield and backcourt failed to get through the midfield and frontcourt pressure of the Bayswater Chinese, Pique made a long pass from the backcourt directly to the left side of the frontcourt.

That is the right side of the Bayswater Chinese.

When Messi retreats, Villa and Pedro will move towards the middle, basically on the flank, forming a position similar to that of a double striker. At this time, the two full-backs will be positioned further forward and play the role of wingers.

So, when Pique passed the ball to the left side of the frontcourt, Adriano played such a role.

When the Brazilian left-back stopped the ball, he faced Piszczek one-on-one.

Adriano glanced at the midfield, and saw that Villa and Pedro were both raising their hands for the ball, indicating that they were in position.

The Brazilian dribbled the ball, first made a fake move to try to fool Piszczek, and then suddenly made a cross from the bottom.

Unexpectedly, Piszczek had rich defensive experience. He got close to Adriano and used the advantage of physical confrontation to block him, disrupting his dribbling rhythm, and then suddenly kicked the ball forward.

The ball was snatched away cleanly.

When Di Maria returned to defense, he was closely pressed by Iniesta.

But Di Maria stopped the ball, turned towards the middle, and made a cross with his left foot.

After passing the ball, Di Maria moved sideways to get past Iniesta, then pushed his legs forward with all his strength, and rushed forward quickly like an arrow.

When Modric ran over to receive the ball, he had already guessed Di Maria's thoughts, and immediately passed the ball back to Di Maria's forward route, giving him enough lead time.

The Argentine chased after him at the fastest speed, and before he received the ball, he saw Busquets rushing towards him.

Di Maria had a flash of inspiration and kicked the ball behind Busquets. He then quickly cut into the middle and caught up with the ball just behind Busquets.

"Nice pass!"

"A very creative pass from Di Maria!"

"A quick counterattack by the Bayswater Chinese!"

“Is there a chance this time?”

Everyone in the stadium became nervous.

My heart almost jumped into my throat.

Di Maria continued to move forward with the ball, leaving Busquets, Adriano and Iniesta behind him.

But at this time, Barcelona's defense also returned to defense very quickly.

Puyol and Pique followed Lewandowski closely.

But Di Maria continued to move forward, advancing and breaking into Barcelona's 30-meter area.

Lewandowski pointed to his right rear, signaling Di Maria to pass the ball there so that he could turn around and move forward.

But at this moment, Di Maria suddenly sent a diagonal pass with the outside of his left foot.

The ball was passed diagonally from the middle of Barcelona's 30-meter area to the left side of the penalty area.

Alves advanced too far and had no time to return to defense.

But a golden figure was sprinting at an extremely fast speed, like a flash of lightning, and the speed was getting faster and faster.

It's Gareth Bale!
When the Welshman caught up with Di Maria's diagonal pass in front of the left side of the penalty area, he did not stop the ball with his left foot, but dribbled directly into the left side of Barcelona's penalty area. Without slowing down, he rushed into Barcelona's penalty area.

The atmosphere in the entire stadium has reached its climax at this moment.

Gareth Bale quickly caught up with the ball he had dribbled out and sent a low cross with his left foot into the middle of the small penalty area.

Lewandowski's movement was also very smart.

He just signaled Di Maria to pass the ball to the right, and he also ran to this side.

Puyol also ran to the right side and set up defense in advance.

But in this way, the distance between Puyol and Pique was widened.

Especially when Gareth Bale caught up, Pique immediately rushed over to intercept.

At this time, Barcelona's two central defenders were in a situation where they fought on their own.

Lewandowski reacted very quickly, changing direction immediately and cutting diagonally into the middle, taking the lead in blocking Puyol behind his back.

When Gareth Bale's low ball reached the middle, Lewandowski arrived just in time and shot the ball into the left side of Barcelona's goal with the inside of his right foot.

Valdes was completely helpless in the face of such a close shot.

"The ball went in!!!"

"In the 9th minute, the Chinese from Bayswater took the lead in breaking through Barcelona's goal!"

"Gareth Bale made a cross from the left and Lewandowski shot it in from the middle!"

"1 to 0!"

"Oh my god, that was a really sharp and quick counterattack!"

“The Bayswater Chinese played very well after the opening.”

"Barcelona has a slight advantage in ball possession now, but they haven't had a single shot so far!"

"A peak showdown between two of the world's top teams!"

“Bayswater Chinese scored the first goal just 9 minutes into the game!”

In an instant, the entire stadium exploded with cheers and applause from countless fans.

All the Chinese fans of Bayswater rushed out of their seats and cheered and shouted at the top of their lungs!

Gareth Bale, Lewandowski, Di Maria and others quickly ran to the sidelines to celebrate the goal.

In front of the visiting team's coaching booth on the sidelines, Yang Cheng laughed and opened his arms.

9 minutes!

The timing of this goal is really good!
And Di Maria.

In the attack just now, Gareth Bale's high-speed run from behind and Lewandowski's calm shot and positioning in front of the goal were of course very important.

But the most important thing is Di Maria.

The Argentine's handling and passing, especially being able to see Gareth Bale's forward advance and send it to the left in time, was very, very crucial!

You are truly the lucky star of the finals!

It turns out that he always shows his strength in every major competition!

……

Guardiola was standing on the sidelines. After seeing Lewandowski score a goal, he slapped his forehead hard, obviously disappointed with the result.

Before the game, he had already anticipated that this game would be very difficult.

But when it came to the actual competition, he found that the Chinese in Bayswater were more difficult to deal with than he had imagined.

Even so, Guardiola walked to the sidelines, clapping continuously, signaling the players to cheer up.

When he was shouting, what he emphasized most was that the players should control the ball, reduce mistakes and slow down the pace of the game.

He absolutely did not believe that Yang Cheng's team could maintain this fast pace since the opening throughout the entire game!

This is absolutely impossible.

Unless they are robots!

So, the Chinese in Bayswater must have a moment to stop and take a breath.

Then Barcelona can take this opportunity to regain the initiative of the game.

Especially the pace of the game.

As long as they slow down the pace and enter the area that Barcelona is most familiar with, the outcome is still unknown.

But when Barcelona kicked off again, they found that the Chinese players in Bayswater did not choose to retreat or slow down the pace of the game after scoring a goal.

Yang Cheng's team is still insisting on pressing and oppressing in the midfield and frontcourt, and is still constantly putting pressure on Barcelona's midfield and backcourt.

This can't help but make everyone wonder.

Does Yang Cheng really intend to maintain this pace of competition?
This is obviously impossible.

If they really do this, how long can they last?

I guess he ran out of energy in the second half of the first half?
Even a team as crazy as Bielsa's Athletic Bilbao would just fight for a while and then rest for a while.

The only difference is that their "rest" is considered very quick for other teams.

……

The two sides of the game are still the same as at the beginning.

The rhythm is still full.

Barcelona still tried hard to control the ball and the tempo, while also trying to create opportunities.

As the pillar of Barcelona, ​​Xhaka is basically concentrated in the midfield.

Messi has been given absolute freedom. Whether he is retreating or moving to the side, he can move according to his own wishes and the situation of the game.

In the 14th minute, he ran to the right side of the frontcourt and cooperated with Alves.

But when he received the ball and wanted to move forward, Thiago Silva rushed forward in time and assisted Marcelo in blocking Messi.

The Argentine reacted quickly, turned around in time to protect the ball, and passed it back to Xavi to reorganize.

The Bayswater Chinese also quickly reorganized their defense.

Toni Kroos pressed the ball closely in the first place, and Xavi passed the ball back to the back line again.

The Barcelona defense continuously changed the direction of attack, but was unable to find a route to the attacking players in the frontcourt.

Pique made another long pass, trying to pass it from the right side of the bottom of the center circle to the top of the arc, looking for Villa.

As a result, Pepe got ahead and headed the ball out.

Matic rushed over quickly, but Iniesta got there first and passed the ball to Xavi.

But at this moment, Lewandowski suddenly rushed out from behind Xavi and passed the ball to Toni Kroos.

The German midfielder was originally going to step forward to intercept Xavi.

When he caught the ball, he was in an unguarded position.

After Toni Kroos stopped the ball, he saw Xavi rushing towards him, turned around, turned his back to the left, took a step with the ball with his right foot, looked up to the front right, and quickly kicked a low diagonal pass with his right foot.

The football was passed diagonally to the right side of the center circle from the left side outside the 30-meter area of ​​the Bayswater Chinese.

Di Maria quickly moved forward, received the pass from Toni Kroos before anyone else, and continued to move forward.

The atmosphere in the entire stadium was lifted again.

Barcelona's defense didn't have time to retreat this time.

Because they were attacking just now.

When they saw Di Maria dribbling the ball through the center line and moving forward quickly, Puyol and Busquets rushed over immediately, trying to team up to double-team Di Maria.

But the Argentine had already seen the clues and sent another diagonal pass with the outside of his left foot.

The ball was passed right between Busquets and Puyol, diagonally to the front left.

Pique, who originally wanted to stay in position and keep the ball outside the 30-meter area, immediately turned around and ran back.

Gareth Bale sprinted away and caught up.

After receiving the ball near Barcelona's 30-meter area, he quickly rushed to Pique.

The Welshman first slowed down a little, while using a series of feints to confuse Pique.

When the Barcelona center back retreated to the edge of the penalty area, he finally refused to retreat any further.

But at this moment, Gareth Bale suddenly started.

This time is completely different from the last time.

Just now, Gareth Bale was intent on getting into the penalty area and then making an assist.

But this time, he directly controlled the ball under his feet, ran quickly, suddenly started, forced through Pique's defense from the outside, broke into the left side of the penalty area, broke out a gap, and shot directly with his left foot.

From receiving the ball to approaching, to suddenly starting, and finally to suddenly shooting.

Pique just barely had time to lift his foot, seemingly intending to block the shot.

But it didn't work at all.

Gareth Bale fired a thunderous volley with his left foot.

The football shot towards the right side of Barcelona's goal at an extremely fast speed.

Although Valdes tried his best to dive out and even touched the ball, the ball was too fast and too powerful to change its direction at all.

The football went straight into the right side of Barcelona's goal.

The entire Allianz Arena fell into deathly silence at first, but soon broke out into thunderous cheers.

All the Chinese fans of Bayswater rushed out of their seats and cheered at the top of their lungs!
After Gareth Bale completed the shot, he already knew the ball was in!
The Welshman turned and ran, rushing all the way to the sidelines, slid to his knees, and rushed to the bottom of the team's fans' stand.

At this time, the whole audience was cheering for Bell.

Lewandowski, Di Maria, Toni Kroos and others chased out and hugged him.

"2 to 0!"

"Just 15 minutes into the game, Bayswater Chinese took a temporary lead of 2-0 with an assist and a goal from Gareth Bale!"

"It was another very sharp and quick counterattack."

"Barcelona's defense has always had fatal weaknesses, and this quick counterattack by the Chinese in Bayswater exposed them completely!"

"Guardiola's team couldn't even stop the Bayswater Chinese from passing the ball during the counterattack. Their defense was torn apart in an instant, revealing their original weakness!"

“It’s very difficult to play the game now!”

"For Guardiola's team, they can still have nothing to worry about if they fall behind by one goal."

"But now, we are two goals behind!"

“This is very difficult!”

"And it's worth mentioning that up to now, Barcelona still hasn't had a single shot on goal."

“This really came as a huge surprise to us.”

"Everyone thought it would be a close match, but Yang Cheng's team played an incredible offensive from the start."

"In the first 15 minutes of the game between the two top clubs, the Chinese from Bayswater scored two goals, while Barcelona has not even had a single shot on target!"

“This is absolutely beyond everyone’s expectations!”

“The Chinese in Bayswater are so powerful!”

"But beneath the surface of Barcelona's passing and possession system, there is actually an extremely fragile side."

Guardiola, standing on the sidelines, was also extremely shocked by the sudden second goal conceded.

At the same time, there is deep disappointment.

Even from his eyes, one could vaguely see a hint of fear.

In the past, these were usually seen in the eyes of his opponents.

But now, Guardiola is really a little worried.

Will there be a crushing defeat tonight?
In the stands, many famous coaches were also shocked by the course of the game.

The strength of the Chinese team in Bayswater did not surprise them. What really surprised them was Yang Cheng's deployment and targeted tactics in this game.

The other is Barcelona’s weakness!

Guardiola's team really seemed vulnerable under the attack of the Chinese in Bayswater.

"Tonight, we may all be witnessing history!"

Ferguson was a little excited.
