In the game in the rest of the first half, Zhen Shaolong's feelings were not very good, and there were two helpless points-

One is that it is very depressing to be defended.

The second is that Messi is not performing well.

Barcelona have greatly strengthened their defence against him since the opening of the centre circle into the goal, and when Newcastle United attacked head-on, he had two players around him outside the box, and when he arrived in the box, he was 'besieged' by three men for a long time.

That treatment......

Zhen Shaolong thought of Zhou Xingxing's kung fu football movie, where the protagonist was surrounded by several players holding hands in the middle, and he didn't expect that he could enjoy such treatment, the difference was that the other party was not 'shameless' to hold hands in a circle.

But I'm also very depressed!

Anyone who faces this kind of defense will not have a way, Zhen Shaolong feels that he is very special, very special, because he has a way, for example, if Messi performs well, he may be able to rush up and get rid of the defense if he accumulates more breakthrough effects of "Forced Copy".

Unfortunately, no.

In the following time, Messi's performance was not good.

"Messi's mentality has probably been affected? Was it so shocked by my performance? ”

"It should be so, but it can't be helped!"

"I'm taller than him, more handsome than him, and more popular than him...... The kick is better than him, he is hit in all directions......"

Zhen Shaolong sighed regretfully, "I would have encouraged him if I had known!" I encouraged him several times, but it was completely useless, and his mentality was so bad! ”

He couldn't help it when he was depressed.

For the rest of the first half, he was heavily defended for most of the time and didn't show much at all.

The midfielder came.

The score was 1-3 in the first half, with the home team in front and the visitors behind, with Barcelona trailing by two goals at home.

This is not something that Barcelona can accept.

Barcelona are one of the most brilliant teams in Europe, and they are at the peak of their game, not only playing good football, but also beating their opponents with ease.

The Barcelona players also have their own pride, and they are all big stars on their own.

Even Thierry, who has won the Premier League top scorer in a row, is just an ordinary player when he comes to Barcelona, and it is not easy to even ensure the main position.

This is the mighty Barcelona.

The stadium where the game is played is called the Camp Nou, and there is no need to talk about how glorious the history of the Camp Nou is, as the mecca of football in Catalonia, Barcelona will feel comfortable beating their opponents when they play here.

Barcelona only accepted the win at Camp Nou, and a half-time draw was hard to accept, let alone two goals down at half-time.

Disgrace!

Shame!

The Barcelona players were thinking about the game, and there was nothing they could do about the 'shame', the opponent was completely leading by strength, and there was not even a little luck in the middle.

The first two goals were all individual performances, and what else could be done if the Barcelona defence couldn't defend against the other side?

Skills are not as good as others!

It's helpless.

They all felt convinced.

Anyway, it didn't feel good to lose, and every player walked into the dressing room with their heads down, and they were a little depressed and at a loss for the rest of the game.

This should not have happened to Barcelona.

O Barcelona!

One of the strongest teams in Europe.

Every player in the team is a top star, they have the best quality and they have a lot of experience.

What is the half-time defeat?

But Zhen Shaolong's performance was too shocking, especially the second goal, he kicked off halfway and ran wildly with the ball, and broke through all the way to the goal to score the ball.

If you ask the Barcelona players to give an evaluation, they want to ask, "Is this human?" ”

"We're not going to be different species, are we?"

Of course.

Just kidding.

The more powerful the stars, the more shocked Zhen Shaolong's performance will be, because they will know how difficult it is to complete that kind of goal.

Messi, Xavi, etc., players who are good at breaking through, this is even more so.

They are the most shocking.

This psychological shock also directly affected the performance, on the contrary, some defenders are not good at attacking, they only know that the opponent is very good, they know that they have to be closely marked, and their state has not been affected too much.

Coach Pep Guardiola's mood is also very heavy, he knows that the score is not to blame on the players, it is completely the opponent's performance is too good, the kick-off in the middle circle broke all the way to the goal, not to mention the average player, even he felt very shocked, doubting whether he could defeat such an opponent, but as the head coach of the team, he must remain sane.

He didn't want to lose.

The Champions League games are too important, especially the Camp Nou game, losing is not only the points, but also the face of Barcelona and Camp Nou.

For a top club, the latter is even more important than the former.

When the players returned to the dressing room, Pep Guardiola told the players: "I know that the other side is doing well, yes, no one can deny it. ”

"That's shocking!"

"Kick off in the middle circle, break through to the goal, don't say it's you, even I was surprised, I've never met an opponent like this in my career......"

"But he can't always be that good!"

"That's only once in a while!"

'He's really good, it's hard to understand, but you have to note that he only scored two goals and most of the time he couldn't get the ball in connection and our defence was useful. ”

"Now we're just two goals behind, and two goals is a lot?"

"We have plenty of time to chase it back!"

Pep Guardiola's words brought the players back to their senses.

Indeed it is!

No matter how good the opponent is, he only scored two goals, and it is impossible to continue to perform so well.

As a top star, there are always times when the performance is very good, such as Messi, Messi has also scored very wonderful goals, breaking through three people in a row, from the half-time breakthrough to the goal before the goal, it is a visible performance.

The other party just behaved more amazingly.

Quite a few players figured it out.

No matter how powerful the other party is, what about it? It's just a player.

In addition, they are all professional players, the top professional players, professional players play football as a profession, even if they don't think about the outcome of the game, they have to try to perform as hard as possible on the field.

This is the sportsmanship that belongs to professional footballers.

Next, Guardiola pointed out the points that need to be paid attention to in the first half, such as the forward pass was a little hasty, such as the backfield defense was too focused on Zhen Shaolong, allowing other players on the other side to have a chance.

Subsequently.

Pep Guardiola is considering a substitution.

In professional football, substitutions are very important, and those players who are not performing well and are not in good form are replaced, and others come off the bench and maybe do well.

This is also a healthy competition within the team.

Pep Guardiola decided to bring Samuel Eto'o on, who was average as a winger, barely contributing to the attack and wasting a starting spot.

It's not that Pep Guardiola is dissatisfied with Eto'o, everyone knows the reason for Eto'o's poor performance - position, Eto'o is a little uncomfortable playing as a winger.

But that's the case with the team.

After Henry joined last season, Eto'o happened to be affected by injury, and Henry quickly occupied the starting position of center forward, and his performance was not worse than Eto'o, and the goal efficiency and containment of the forward line have brought great help to the team.

Samuel Eto'o has recovered this season, but he can't play in place of Thierry Henry, who is still very consistent and even more efficient as he adapts over the season.

So Eto'o was a little embarrassed.

Many players have speculated that the situation has not changed, and Eto'o may leave the team at the end of the season, after all, he is also a world-class striker, and it is impossible to be willing to play as a substitute.

Pep Guardiola opted to bring on Andres Iniesta to replace Samuel Eto'o.

Andres Iniesta is a talented La Masia academy, he has played frequently for Barcelona at the age of 18, and he has started to play the main team at the age of 20.

Samuel Eto'o's path belonged to Andres Iniesta, and it was only natural to let Iniesta play.

Subsequently.

Pep Guardiola looked at Messi, "Do you want to replace Messi?" "He was thinking about replacing Messi out of a protective mentality.

The outside media have compared Messi and Zhen Shaolong, judging from the performance of the game, the two cannot be compared at all, Messi's mentality in the second half of the year has been affected, and his performance has also been greatly affected.

"Replaced?"

"Not changing?"

Guardiola thought a lot, but still dismissed the idea of replacing Messi, because replacing Messi is tantamount to admitting that Messi is not as good as Zhen Shaolong.

That may have hit Messi even harder.

On the contrary, Messi will continue to stay on the field, he will try to perform, and maybe he will be able to find confidence.

The other side.

In the Newcastle dressing room, the atmosphere was very relaxed and everyone had a smile on their faces.

Head coach Kevin Keegan praised all the players, "Everyone did a great job, but we have to keep working hard and we better be able to finish the game still ahead!" ”

That represents victory.

Keegan's praise is sincere, Zhen Shaolong's performance is needless to say, 'God possessed' can't be described, and the other players are also quite good, especially in the follow-up time, taking advantage of Barcelona's absence, the team can play an offensive and find opportunities to complete the goal, which is quite commendable.

Keegan also talked about the way he played in the second half, and his main meaning was, "Just play like this!" ”

"We're going to keep going defensively."

After praising all the players and making adjustments for the second half, Keegan stood in the small window, looking out at the fans and the stadium, thinking that he might beat Barcelona, and he suddenly felt a wave of excitement welling up from the depths of his heart.

Yes.

Excited.

Keegan originally thought that losing the concept of football and coaching with a utilitarian winning mentality would be equivalent to losing the discipline and soul of coaching, and he completely regarded coaching as a job and would not have a little emotional color into it, but when the team achieved good results, especially when he could beat Barcelona at Camp Nou, he felt a sense of accomplishment in winning.

Is that what success brings?

Keegan couldn't believe it, but he also felt very ashamed.

"I shouldn't feel this way......"

"Success? No. It's not my success, it's the stolen success! ”

Keegan guilty.

He suddenly appeared in his mind, after losing his discipline and bottom line, he used the professional rights in his hands to get a large amount of black-hearted income.

Is that an achievement?

No!

That's sin!

————

Soon the second half began.

Amid the cheers of the surrounding fans in the stands, the Barcelona players rekindled their fighting spirit, continued to skillfully control the style of play, and continued to control the football, and immediately suppressed Newcastle United in the half.

Barcelona went on the attack.

The first wave of attacks lasted nearly three minutes, and although they couldn't finish the goal in the end, it was also an excellent skill to keep the opponent from getting the ball in a row.

That would make the opponent despair.

Fortunately, Newcastle United's mentality is good, they have long been mentally prepared, and when they are two goals ahead, they will properly stabilize the defense and try not to give the opponent any chance.

Barcelona soon regained control of the ball and continued to press Newcastle United, who were noticeably better than they were in the rest of the first half.

They have regained their fighting spirit, their form, and their accustomed rhythm.

Every player is doing well.

The same goes for Messi.

Fifteen minutes in the midfield are enough to make people think calmly, and Messi has already figured out that the opponent is indeed very good, so good that the opponent feels desperate.

So what?

What does it have to do with him?

If you put the mentality a few years ago, many players in the world were better than him, and he never imagined that he could get to where he is now.

So, take it easy.

No one can guarantee that he is the best in the world, it is normal for someone to be better than himself, and he is still very young, he has a long way to go in the future, and he will continue to grow and improve, maybe one day in the future, he will be able to catch up with each other and stand at the same height as each other.

Now all he has to do is try to perform.

Don't think you're a big star, don't compare yourself to the other team, you're just a normal player, try to play on the pitch and help the team beat the opponent.

That's all.

After Messi calmed down, his performance improved significantly, and he returned to his previous form.

Successful breakthrough!

Wonderful passing!

In the 52nd minute of the game, Messi used his personal performance to almost help the team complete the goal, but unfortunately in the end, Hleb's shot was a little weak, and the football grazed the post and flew into the bottom line.

"Hula......"

The fans in the surrounding stands let out a sigh of regret.

It doesn't matter!

There's still a lot of time!

Barcelona reinvigorated their morale and launched waves of offensives.

Middle circle.

Zhen Shaolong stood in the middle, motionless, like a statue standing tall, unlike the nervous mood of other teammates, he exhaled a long breath, "It's normal now!" ”

"Messi should be so good!"

As long as Messi can break through continuously, he can help accumulate the breakthrough effect of "Forced Copy", and no matter how dense the defense is around, it is not an insurmountable obstruction.

Messi's performance is really outstanding.

In the sixty-first minute of the game, Messi received a pass at the front of the penalty area, and anyone thought that he would continue to pass, either by passing back to his teammates, or by kicking the penalty area, but he didn't expect him to turn around and bring it himself.

Faced with Jean and Geremi's flanks, Messi dribbled through between the two.

After Messi broke through the two, he had already rushed to the penalty area, and there was still room to shoot, and after he glanced at the goal, he waved his foot without hesitation.

"Bang!"

The ball instantly rushes to the left side of the goal.

Goalkeeper Given's reaction speed was fast and his save judgment was very accurate, but there was still no way to defend his shot from such close range.

"The ball is in!"

"Messi! Messi! ”

'He broke through on the edge of the box and sent the ball into the Newcastle goal!'

"The score became 2-3! Barcelona pulled a goal back and they were only one goal behind! ”

on the field.

Barcelona didn't celebrate too excitedly, Messi just clapped his hands on the opponent who rushed in, and immediately ended the celebration and was ready to start the game again.

They were still one goal behind, but it wasn't time to celebrate.

The Barcelona fans in the stands around were excited, they cheered wildly, and they also had a reason to cheer - Barcelona had already begun to hope for an equaliser.

The first half was a depressing one.

Barcelona fans feel the same as fans, they are shocked by Zhen Shaolong's performance, and they all feel that the game may be lost, Barcelona's performance is not bad, but the opponent is too powerful, what can be done?

Is there anything more amazing than a ball in the middle circle to break through to goal?

Barcelona fans were shocked.

Now seeing the performance of Barcelona and Messi's goal, the fans see hope again, they feel that the equalization is very promising, and after the equalization, they can expect to overtake, they can still win at Camp Nou.

People, most importantly, is hope.

As long as there is hope, there will be motivation, expectation, and mood, on the contrary, no hope is hopeless.

At this time, the Camp Nou stadium was full of hope, if you don't know the game on the field, just look at the excitement of the fans, and think that Barcelona is ahead by a big score.

The shouts of the fans in the stands were also very exciting.

"Barcelona, come on!"

"Messi, come on!"

"I love Barça, long live Barça!"

The Barcelona fans had reason to be excited, and the players on the pitch had reason to play hard and expect a better performance to equalise the scoreline, but they were still behind for the time being.

The ball is also in Newcastle United.

Michael Owen was standing in the center circle, with a football under his feet preparing for kickoff.

Zhen Shaolong stood next to him, staring at the goal in the distance, pondering, "Six seconds, it's a bit insufficient!" ”

"Forget it!"

Zhen Shaolong shook his head.

When the referee announced the start of the game, Owen kicked the ball over, Zhen Shaolong did not take the ball directly, but kicked the ball to Grami behind him.

This is regrettable.

Many Newcastle fans and even the media still have expectations for Zhen Shaolong's 'one more dragon', but unfortunately Zhen Shaolong has no intention of trying to do it.

They think it's extravagant.

That performance again, Barcelona raised their hands and surrendered!

The British commentator is also talking about this topic, "It's a pity that Zhen Shaolong didn't carry the ball by himself, and I would love to see him do another dragon." ”

"Barcelona's mentality will definitely collapse when the time comes......"

"That's interesting!"

"It's a pity...... Newcastle launched the attack normally, and came to see Geremi receive the ball......"

"Oh-"

"This ball!"

As the commentator's voice turned, everyone's attention returned to the court.

Newcastle United took advantage of the kick-off opportunity and played to the right side of the pitch, where Damion Duff found position and played a ball to Grami.

Grami was about to continue to transfer, when he found Zhen Shaolong turning around and running over.

Zhen Shaolong was very tightly defended, followed by Pique and Busquets, but it was impossible for the two to completely restrict his running, and after finding his teammates attacking the front, he immediately retreated and ran back.

Pique and Sergio Busquets followed.

If it is placed on other players, even if they retreat and receive a pass, because they are blocked by two people behind them, they can only transfer the ball to others.

Graimi judged the situation, and with a little hesitation, he passed the ball anyway.

Ordinary people are ordinary people, is Zhen Shaolong an ordinary person? He's not even ...... Ahem.

Geremi's answer is no.

Zhen Shaolong dropped back to get the ball to make Barcelona feel a little nervous, but Pique and Busquets were right behind him, which relieved the backfield defence.

Zhen Shaolong thought the opposite, he saw an opportunity instead!

Originally, Zhen Shaolong wanted to use the two 'football follow' effects accumulated in "Forced Copy" to forcibly wipe Pique and Busquets, but when he found that the two were following behind him, he suddenly felt that he should not waste his skills.

When the football was about to reach his feet, Zhen Shaolong immediately started "Attack".

"Strike" is also a 'football follow' effect, but "Strike" has the advantage that it can be triggered in advance, as long as the ball is within one meter of you.

Opening "Assault" gave Zhen Shaolong the advantage of 'one step ahead', neither Pique nor Busquets expected that Zhen Shaolong's stopping and ball control would be so smooth, as if it didn't take up any time, and when Zhen Shaolong turned around and rushed to the side, Pique was still looking for 'where is the ball', Busquets took the first step to chase Zhen Shaolong, but his reaction was still a little slow.

Zhen Shaolong took the lead in starting the sprint.

Although there was still a physical collision with Butzkes in an instant, and the effect of "Assault" was about to end, the football was already at his feet, and he used the ball forward, and then followed the step and chased it.

By the time he got to the ball, Butzkes had been thrown a full two metres away.

The other Barcelona players were also five metres away.

Zhen Shaolong glanced at the goal, judged the distance, and immediately waved his right foot high.

"Bang!"

Shot!

The ball soared into the sky and slashed over a distance of 30 meters and quickly flew to the top left corner of the goal.

This is a theoretical dead end.

Valdés in front of the goal realized that Zhen Shaolong might shoot, but he still didn't expect that the opponent's shot was so fast and tricky, he made a save, but when he pounced on the position, the football had already rushed into the goal first.

There was a moment of silence at the Camp Nou.

Correspondingly, the BBC live broadcast in the UK fell into a frenzy, and the commentator hysterically yelled, "The ball is in!" The ball is in! Zhen Shaolong, a long-distance shot! ”

"Thirty meters! It's about thirty meters! ”

"The moment Zhen Shaolong received the ball, he rushed up to shake off Pique and Busquets, and directly kicked the ball into the goal!"

"Well done!"

"It's so beautiful!"

"This goal is very fast, the Barcelona fans are still celebrating the goal one moment, and Zhen Shaolong has completed the goal the next moment!"

"Barcelona fans would never have imagined that their joy would only last for a minute, yes, not a minute, fifty-six seconds to be exact!"

"2 to 4!"

"Newcastle United have opened up the gap again! This goal will probably be a big blow to Barcelona......"

The blow was too big!

The Barcelona players looked at the goal in the goal, their faces were not very good, some players had the urge to cry, they just saw the hope of equalizing, regained some fighting spirit and morale, and the opponent quickly completed the goal.

How is this game still played?

Their whole team has been working hard for a long time, and it is not as good as the performance of the opponent in a few seconds!

Can you still play normally?

They feel hopeless......
