Chapter 172 All for the Champions League Final

The second half of the game has just started.

Everyone can see that Barcelona has accelerated the passing speed and the overall formation has moved forward.

"Barcelona is going to attack!"

In the commentary booth, the Catalan commentator cheered up. In his opinion, as long as Barcelona wants to attack, no team can resist it.

The fans of the home team were also very excited.

The cheers from the stands of Camp Nou resounded through the sky, forming a violent sound wave in the stadium, sweeping and hitting the chests of all the players.

The roar of nearly 10 people, no matter who is in it, will inevitably be affected.

In such wild cheers.

Barcelona launched wave after wave of attacks into Malaga's penalty area.

Barcelona's offensive was surging and the momentum was astonishing, which made Malaga's supporters worry.

"Messi... shot!!" Duan Xuan exclaimed.

Although Caballero took the ball off in the end, this time Barcelona's offensive still left Duan Xuan with lingering fears.

"Malaga can't be beaten passively, they must have a counterattack, otherwise... they may not be able to withstand 45 minutes."

Of course, Malaga is very clear about this truth.

But they need to wait for the right moment.

Ye Luo's position retreated deeply.

He was the only counterattack point in this game-even so, Barcelona was on the verge of a formidable enemy.

Busquets stared at Ye Luo and stopped talking.

Barcelona's two full-backs also took turns receiving the defensive midfielder position to participate in the defense-this is a pioneering work by Guardiola.

Generally speaking, the strategy for topping the opponent's retreating striker is to let the central defender go up.

But Guardiola chose to let the two full-backs take turns inward in this game.

This is because he does not want the central defender to have fewer people, and at the same time, he also takes advantage of the characteristics of fast full-back and strong recovery ability.

In other words, Barcelona played a bit similar to the Italian-style 3.5 defender tactics in this game.

The full-back plays an increasingly important role in modern football tactics.

The most popular formation in the classical era was the 3223 formation, which is the famous MW position.

Three defenders, two midfielders, responsible for defense, two midfielders, and three forwards, responsible for offense.

The division of labor is very clear, and the well water does not violate the river water.

Defenders defend, forwards attack,
But with the development of the times, such a rigid strategy is obviously becoming more and more inappropriate.

Ever since, various new tactics and changes in player positions have emerged.

The most classic is nothing more than the 442 formation that many English teams still insist on playing, with 4 defenders, 4 avant-gardes, and 2 forwards.

This kind of formation can make good use of the width of the court. It can advance to the frontcourt through the offense on both sides, and play cross tactics. The two center forwards can also ensure the offensive firepower in the middle.

Of course.

In Spain, which pursues foot control, the 433 position began to occupy the mainstream.

In Italy, where defense is important, many coaches have begun to study the impact of full-backs on offense in order to accumulate a numerical advantage on the offensive end.

The most classic is the 3.5 guard tactics often used by Lippi and other head coaches.

In the Italian 3.5-back tactic, one full-back presses up, and the other full-back returns to the central back line, forming a 3-central back position with two central backs.

But in the hands of Guardiola.

The recovered full-back position is close to the front, forming a double midfielder position with Busquets.

This is undoubtedly a pioneering work.

But the effect is very good, at least for now Ye Luo hasn't been able to create much threat.

But Ye Luo is not in a hurry, he is still running, looking for opportunities.

His mentality is also the mentality of Malaga now.

The team's defensive pressure is indeed great, and Barcelona's offensive is indeed fierce.

But after so many strong dialogues, the players have also developed their mentality through experience-how can I say that high-intensity games are the best exercise for a team and players.

Now the Malaga players firmly believe that they only need one chance, and they can put Barcelona to death!

Because, their captain, Ye Luo, is sure to seize the opportunity.

As long as Ye Luo stands in front, as long as Ye Luo is on the court.

The Malaga players believed in that.

have to say.

The power of trust is powerful.

Even if the current situation is very passive, even if Barcelona's offensive becomes more and more fierce, as long as they believe that Ye Luo can bring goals, they will not be defeated!
Huge waves smashed down.

Malaga is like a submerged reef, which is still hard to come out after being hit by huge waves.

After 15 minutes of Barcelona's opening onslaught.

The score on the court was still zero to zero.

In these 15 minutes, Malaga had almost no chance of possession of the ball.

Barcelona kept on pressing.

It did create some dangerous situations.

But they were all resolved by Malaga's defensive players.

Everyone is desperately defending, using every part of their body to block every shot from Barcelona!
The Catalan commentator looked a bit serious: "Malaga's defense is too dense."

As the game time goes on.

The sharpness of Barcelona's offense has also begun to decline-don't think that such a fast-paced offense and defense will not consume Barcelona's physical energy.

In fact.

The current situation is a double test of Barcelona's physical fitness and spirit.

Many Barcelona players began to feel a little anxious, and their tempers became more and more irritable.

On the contrary, Malaga began to gradually gain the opportunity to control the ball, attack and counterattack.

The balance of offense and defense began to tilt slowly.

Game No.605 minutes.

Malaga started to make substitutions.

Pellegrini replaced Ruud Ruud, replaced Juanito.

Thus.

The midfield midfielder combination is Camacho's partner Tulalang, while Joaquin and Cazorla are separated on the left and right, and Ye Luo and Ruud van Nistelrooy stand one behind the other.

This substitution is obviously a signal that Malaga will start to exert strength on the offensive end!
Fanny's appearance greatly relieved Ye Luo's pressure.

This also makes Malaga's offensive threat even greater!
However, Barcelona has also made a targeted strategy-to make the two full-backs try not to press up and assist as much as possible.

But in this way, Barcelona's own offense will inevitably be affected.

Therefore, after Malaga overcame Barcelona's onslaught in the opening 10 minutes of the second half, the situation on the field turned into a tug of war.

Both sides have no chance to counterattack, and their respective offenses must face the opponent's complete defensive system.

In other words.

For both parties.

We must be prepared for positional warfare.

The game changed from the initial one-sided onslaught of Barcelona to a struggle between the two teams in the midfield.

The game continued until No. 80 minutes, and the score was still zero to zero.

The momentum of the Barcelona fans in the stands of the Camp Nou is not as good as before, because many Barcelona fans are standing in the stands, looking dignified, watching the stadium anxiously, and have no energy to make any noise.

The mentality of the Barcelona fans actually reflects the predicament Barcelona is facing now.

Guardiola couldn't sit still anymore, he stood on the sidelines, frowning.

Malaga's performance in this game was very calm, they took advantage of their lead, first used defense to wear down the spirit of Barcelona's attack, and then replaced the attacking hand to reverse the situation of the game, and now both sides are playing in the midfield There was a fierce fight, and players from both sides kept colliding, fouling, and even clashing in the midfield.

Every time the game stops, it kills the game time. The less game time, the more anxious Barcelona is.

Game time is getting less and less.

For both sides, the scene is more anxious.

Guardiola looked at the game time and took a deep breath.

He swung his right hand forward.

This is the signal of Barcelona's general attack.

Barcelona's players reacted quickly after receiving Guardiola's signal.

The most obvious change is the position of the two full-backs, Abidal and Alves, who press the half-court at the same time, and the full-backs are used as wingers.

Increasing the number of offensive players in the frontcourt is the most commonly used method to break the balance between the two sides.

But this also means that Barcelona must bear certain risks.

It's the last 10 minutes of the game.

Barcelona must have goals.

They have no way out!
"We just need one goal! One goal!!"

The Catalan commentator was also anxious.

Game No.805 minutes.

Malaga got a chance to fight back.

But Barcelona responded quickly.

When Malaga's counterattack advanced to the 30-meter area of ​​the frontcourt, many of Barcelona's defensive players had already returned to their defense.

Both full-backs are back.

Meanwhile, Busquets and Xavi are back in position.

And here in Malaga.

Cazorla is holding the ball, Joaquin is on the side, Van Nistelrooy is also pulling sideways to widen the width of the attack, the one in the middle is Ye Luo, who is entangled by Puyol and Pique .

Joaquin was positioned close to the wing, and Abidal was stuck on the line of his oblique penetration into the penalty area.

On the other side, Alves is defending, and his defense is under a lot of pressure, because Ruud van Nistelrooy is pulling to this side, and Camacho is making a diagonal thrust to this side.

He can't do both, so he can only position between the half and the wing, so that no matter who the ball is passing to, he can react in time.

When Cazorla took the ball and looked up.

The chance to fight back is gone.

It has become a positional battle again.

Up to now, both sides are actually very wary.

Especially on the Barcelona side, they want to attack, but they are worried about defensive problems. If they lose the ball at this time, then Barcelona will be over.

And for Malaga.

They really only need one goal.

A game-killing goal!

Cazorla can't keep the ball under his feet for too long, and the other Barcelona players are not pegs on the pitch.

However, the situation in front of Cazorla is actually not good. Most of the players are defended, and any pass looks ordinary, not enough to produce the effect of tearing the defense.

So what to do?

Cazorla used to look at Ye Luo's position.

Ye Luo didn't stand still in the penalty area, the opportunity came out only while running.

He turned, ran to Cazorla, and raised his hand.

Seeing that Ye Luo asked for the ball, Cazorla didn't hesitate and passed the ball to Ye Luo's feet.

Barcelona's players also knew that Malaga's players would look for Yello's position most of the time in the frontcourt.

Because Ye Luo's threat in the frontcourt is too great.

When the ball is at his feet, he can create chances.

Puyol and Pique dare not neglect.

They rushed up immediately, one on the left and one on the right, forming a pincer attack on Ye Luo.

Not only Puyol and Pique, but Alves and Busquets are also eyeing Ye Luo.

They all know that Ye Luo has now scored 23 goals in the Champions League. He definitely hopes to continue to expand his record. In addition, Ye Luo also tends to shoot by himself in most cases in this area.

Everyone knows how powerful Ye Luo is.

In the last round of the league, he just defeated Real Madrid with a hat-trick, helping Malaga to the top of the list.

Although Barcelona is the defending champion, they have been suppressed by Malaga and Real Madrid in the league this season.

Especially Real Madrid, this season Real Madrid defeated Barcelona at home, and Mourinho's transformation of Real Madrid was quite successful.

Facing such a line of defense, Ye Luo could still perform a hat-trick.

What's more, Ye Luo also played well when facing Barcelona. The painful memories of the previous few matches made the Barcelona players dare not underestimate Ye Luo.

When he saw Cazorla pass the ball to Ye Luo, Alves shrank to the middle. He even forgot that Ruud van Nistelrooy was beside him, but turned around and rushed towards Ye Luo.

Because at this time, Ye Luo had already caught the ball and turned around.

Ye Luo didn't stop the ball, but turned around with the ball inside his instep, which was his standard action before he was about to shoot.

Turn around and volley.

Near the penalty area line, no one dared to let Ye Luo shoot like this.

So when he saw that Ye Luo was about to turn around, Alves rushed up directly, because the direction Ye Luo turned around was the area where he was.

Almost everyone thought that Ye Luo would definitely shoot by himself.

There are many reasons.

First of all, Ye Luo is the top scorer in Malaga and has unlimited shooting rights. His shots account for the vast majority of Malaga's total shots, so Ye Luo has a strong desire to attack the goal. Who is this? It's all clear - otherwise he wouldn't have scored so many goals.

Secondly, Ye Luo definitely wants to continue his scoring record and consecutive scoring games-he has scored goals in every Champions League game this season.

Up to now, goals have been scored in 10 consecutive Champions League games!
This is also a record in the Champions League.

therefore.

No one doubts what choice Ye Luo will make.

He will definitely shoot!
Ye Luola turned around, looked up, and saw three defensive players in front of him, and Busquets and Harvey on the side.

He can't see the goal.

Or.

He couldn't see a line that could be connected between the football and the goal.

He can of course force a shot and, with luck, get the ball in range.

But in this way, there is a high probability that an opportunity will be wasted.

at this time.

Out of the corner of his eye, Ye Luo saw Fanny who was vacant.

Pass the ball to Van Nistelrooy and he will have a better shot than himself.

Although this way.

His record of consecutive goals in the Champions League may be interrupted because of this.

This question did not cross Ye Luo's mind.

Because to him.

Entering the Champions League final is far more important than any record.

If there is any accident in this game due to his own record, wouldn't it be a sesame seed and a watermelon?
In the eyes of the Barcelona players, when Yello raised his right foot, it was a sign that he was going to shoot.

Everyone's heart tightened.

at this moment.

Pique, Puyol, Busquets, Xavi, and Alves all made defensive moves.

The two central defenders immediately made an action to block the shooting route. Alves rushed forward and narrowed the angle of Ye Luo's shot as much as possible.

At the same time, Xavi and Busquets both chose to hit Yello from the side and rear to interfere with Yello's shot.

When Busquets bumped Ye Luo's side with his shoulder, he felt that Ye Luo didn't complete the shot because the force felt different.

Busquets was overjoyed.

This time the defense succeeded!
The narrators exclaimed.

"Yellow. Pass the ball!!??"

Almost all commentators thought that Ye Luo would choose his own shot in that position.

But in fact it is not.

The moment Busquets hit Ye Luo.

Ye Luo flicked the ball to the right with the outer instep of his right foot.

at the same time.

Ruud van Nistelrooy, who had been aiming at Barcelona's defense and pressing the offside line to avoid offside, moved forward quickly!
In fact, he wanted to rush forward to make up the shot.

At that moment, he himself thought that Ye Luo was going to shoot.

Because Ye Luo was surrounded at this time, it would be great if he could control the ball, let alone observe the surrounding situation. Fanny also knew that if Ye Luo sent the ball to his feet, it would actually be a better opportunity. But he didn't expect Ye Luo to be able to observe his running position in this flash.

Therefore, his forward penetration is more for jumping up and making up shots.

This also led to his forward speed very fast. It just so happened that Ye Luo's kick appeared in front of him, and Van Nistelrooy almost didn't need to adjust after the acceleration.

"Offside!"

Harvey, who was returning to defense, raised his arm to signal the referee and the linesman that Ruud van Nistelrooy was in an offside position.

But neither the referee nor the linesman said anything.

"It's not offside! The cooperation between Ye Luo and Van Nistelrooy is perfect!" Andres exclaimed.

There were boos everywhere at the Camp Nou, and among the boos everywhere, even a lot of screams were heard.

Many Barcelona fans put their heads in their hands and looked at the pitch in despair.

Van Nistelrooy didn't intend to stop the ball, he adjusted his pace during the run to allow himself a comfortable shooting position.

Puyol's reaction was quick, he didn't care whether Ruud van Nistelrooy was offside, he turned around and rushed over.

But Van Nistelrooy did not give Puyol a chance, he took two steps and volleyed directly with his right foot!
When Ye Luo took the ball.

Valdez stood in the middle of the goal, and he focused all his attention on Ye Luo. He judged that if Ye Luo wanted to shoot, he would most likely shoot in the opposite direction, because there were several players standing there in the near corner, It is not easy to penetrate. If Ye Luo wants to shoot, the direction of the far post is the only way.

Therefore, when Ye Luo raised his right foot, he couldn't help but move a step to his right, which is to the left of Ye Luo's shooting direction, so that he could get a better saving position.

But right now.

Ye Luo passed the ball!
Valdes turned pale with fright, he rushed over in a hurry, intending to block the near corner.

But I didn't expect that just as he rushed over, Ruud's shot went towards the far corner! !
Valdez was still on the move, unable to react in such a short period of time, he could only watch the football pass by his feet.

"ball"

The football hit the side netting, but from inside the goal!
"Roud van Nistelrooy! The goal has been scored!! Malaga lead Barcelona [-]-[-] in the away game! This goal put Barcelona in a desperate situation!! Malaga has already led [-]-[-] on the total score!! Barcelona must at least win the rest of the game Two goals in a few minutes to send the game into overtime!!"

"This is a lore!!"

Duan Xuan was shouting.

Although, there are still a few minutes before the game is over.

But now the excited Duan Xuan can no longer care about rational analysis.

The word lore, blurted out!

Ruud van Nistelrooy, who shot the football into the goal, looked at the football inside the goal, and then looked at the sideline. The linesman did not raise the flag, and the referee blew his whistle and pointed to the center circle!
The goal is valid! ! !

Just as Fanny was about to celebrate, he was thrown to the ground by Ye Luola.

"Nice job!!!"

"Yello passed the ball! Yes, in that position he chose to pass the ball, and it turned out that his pass choice was correct. At that moment, almost all Barcelona players did not expect that Yelo would pass the ball, yeah , who would have thought that Malaga's top scorer didn't kick himself when facing the goal head-on!"

"It was this unexpected pass that broke the balance on the court. The Barcelona players stared at Ye Luo, but forgot Ruud van Nistelrooy, the king of the small penalty area!"

"Roud van Nistelrooy's shot is very decisive. Even though he is 35 years old and his physical function is not as good as before, he will not miss such an opportunity in the penalty area!! A wonderful volley from the far corner, piercing through Barcelona's goal! "

"One to zero! Malaga took the lead at the Nou Camp. This goal not only canceled out Barcelona's away goal, but also extended the total score to just three to one! If Barcelona wants to turn defeat into victory, they must To score two goals in the last few minutes is possible to drag the game into extra time, and as for the direct promotion, they have to count on God to be on their side."

"Yellow gave up his chance to expand his record, and he may also give up his chance to continue the Champions League scoring streak. He passed the football to Ruud van Nistelrooy who was in a better position. Maybe people will feel strange-in people's impression , Ye Luo is a player with a strong desire to shoot, but in fact, he actually has a lot of assists. This season, Ye Luo has completed 15 assists, which is one more than his teammate Cazorla. The La Liga assists list is second only to Messi who has completed 16 assists, ranking second. In fact, he is not a too unique player."

While Malaga's players were wildly celebrating their goal.

The commentators from all over the world used their own predictions to explain the ball passionately.

At this time, the Barcelona players no longer had any calm look on their faces.

Pique was slapping Caipi angrily, Puyol was loudly encouraging his teammates, Xavi, Iniesta and other players also showed anxious faces, urging the Barcelona players to cheer up.

Now for Barcelona.

It takes a miracle to drag the game into overtime.

in the stands.

The Barcelona fans were also dumbfounded. They put their heads in their hands, and some of them looked at the big screen in the stadium with some luck.

Current game time: No.805 minutes of the game.

Time is still moving forward.

There is really too little time left for Barcelona.

Score two goals in a row in the last few minutes. Most Barcelona fans know that it is really difficult to do this.

This situation is very, very, very bad!

Only the cheers of Malaga fans remained in the Nou Camp.

Guardiola knelt down after seeing the goal scored.

He knelt down on his knees, emotions such as annoyance and anger were fully reflected in him.

But by this time, Guardiola has no time to think about anything else.

Barcelona need to attack.

So he looks to the bench.

On the bench, the offensive players available to him include Fabregas and Pedro.

Then why hesitate?

Come on!
So, while the Malaga players were still celebrating.

Fabregas and Pedro are already warming up.

"Barcelona this season is likely to be empty of the four majors. Oh, it is not right to say that the four are empty. They have at least won a European Super Cup and a Club World Cup. However, they lack the league championship, the Champions League champion, and even the King's Cup champion. With such a heavyweight trophy, Barcelona this season is really not a success."

"Guardiola has decided not to renew his contract with Barcelona after the end of this season. Maybe he wants to bring Barcelona a new Champions League champion, but now it seems that this hope has become more and more remote, and in the league , although Barcelona is still in the championship group, they are clearly at a disadvantage."

When the commentators saw this scene, they all sighed with emotion.

Guardiola established a dynasty for Barcelona, ​​​​but any dynasty will collapse one day.

It's just that no one thought
Cosmic team Barcelona will be eliminated by Malaga in the Champions League this season.

Barcelona this season is likely to have no heavyweight champions.

This result is not very embarrassing.

However, for Barcelona, ​​their lineup is still top-notch.

Even Guardiola left.

Barcelona is still the top club in La Liga and Europe.

Yello's passing assist helped Malaga score the decisive goal.

Malaga lead Barcelona [-]-[-] away.

This goal completely sent Barcelona to a dead end.

"Long live! Malaga! Long live! Ye Luo!"

At the site of the away team stands, in downtown Malaga.

Such voices resounded from every corner.

Many Malaga fans burst into tears, unable to help themselves,
Yes.

Malaga is about to reach the Champions League final!

Who would have thought, who would have thought that Malaga could have such a peak!

This is the most glorious moment in the history of Malaga club.

Malaga fans sang praises from the stands.

In fact.

At the last moment of the game.

The entire Camp Nou stadium is their voice.

And in the next time.

The commentators were not focused on the game.

They are all talking about Malaga's historic breakthrough to the Champions League final, and they are also talking about Ye Luo's assist.

"At that moment, if Ye Luo chose to shoot himself, no one would blame him. I believe Ye Luo could have scored if he shot himself, but obviously Van Nistelrooy is in a much better position than him. Pass the ball to Van Nistelrooy. It's more likely that Nee will score."

"Actually, I was quite surprised. I didn't expect Ye Luo to pass the ball, because every goal he scored now is an expansion of the record."

"Ye Luo's record of consecutive golden goals in the Champions League may stop at the tenth game, but it doesn't matter, because Ye Luo created another miracle. He led Malaga to the Champions League final in a historic way!"

"At the critical moment, Ye Luo made the right choice! The team's victory is the most important thing!"

When the narrators were talking.

The time of the game is also passing by every minute and every second.

In fact, Ye Luo is also pursuing goals.

But what the team needs now is defense.

Off the court, Pellegrini waved his hand, and almost all Malaga players retreated to the third defensive zone.

Malaga is going to be completely defended!
As long as they don't concede two goals in a row in the last few minutes, Malaga will advance to the Champions League final!

In this case, how could Pellegrini not know what to do.

The sky and the earth are big, not as big as reaching the Champions League final.

Everything must be prepared in order to eliminate Barcelona and advance to the final!

When all the players retreated and Ye Luo himself returned to the top of the penalty area to participate in the defense, and even returned to the penalty area to defend against high-altitude balls at critical moments, he actually didn't have many chances to attack.

However, the recording is interrupted as well.

There will be opportunities later.

The point is, reaching the final and winning the Champions League is the real goal!
"No.904 minutes into the match, the referee is already looking at his watch."

on the commentary.

Many commentators have already stood up.

In the stands of Camp Nou, many Barcelona fans were numb and sat down in their seats, waiting for the fateful verdict.

As the referee whistled three times, the numb Barcelona fans finally gave up. The theoretical luck, all, no longer existed.

In the visiting stands, the Malaga fans were in tears.

On the bench, Malaga's substitute players rushed into the field excitedly, hugging their teammates when they saw them.

Isco, who was injured and could only sit in the stands to watch the game, turned over the Nou Camp stands, entered the stadium, and joined the celebration with his fists clenched.

"What a pity, Yeh, you're only one goal away from scoring in ten consecutive Champions League games."

Isco put his arms around his good friend and said, his face was rather regretful.

"It's no big deal." Ye Luo laughed loudly, "Isn't it just a small record, there will be opportunities in the future."

"The point is, we made it to the final!"

Isco also laughed.

Whether it is for Ye Luo or Isco.

this season.

It means a lot to them -- both of them may be on the verge of achieving a zero breakthrough for a major championship.
