Chapter 403: Hold on to victory

Barcelona seem to have lost their sense of proportion from top to bottom.

Their players were frustrated. Valdés lay on the goalline, reluctant to get up for a long time.

In this game, his goal was breached three times, and this humiliation has not been seen in Valdés' game for a long time.

Conceding more than three goals in a game?

Such a match is really rare in Barcelona, at least not even Valdés can remember the last time he conceded more than three goals....

Puyol stood in the stadium with his waist in his hand, and the game came to this situation, and the captain of Barcelona already knew at this time that Barcelona was finished, and this season's league was over.

Pep Guardiola thought the same thing, turning around and sitting back in the dugout.

If Barcelona can play a wave of attacks at the beginning of the second half, even if they can't score, it will definitely boost the morale of Barcelona's players.

And it's not too much of a problem to be two goals behind. As long as Barcelona can score early in the second half, with only one goal behind, Barcelona at home will definitely have a chance to chase the score back.

But now....... Atletico Madrid unexpectedly took advantage of their kick-off in the opening game, and pressed up to attack a wave, which of course surprised Barcelona - if Atletico Madrid was willing to attack Barcelona in the first half, Barcelona's players would naturally not be afraid, but Atletico Madrid had been defending and counterattacking in the first half, and suddenly exerted force on the offensive end in the second half, which naturally made Barcelona's players a little uncomfortable.

And to make matters worse, Atletico Madrid's attack scored a goal!

This is even more terrible! Three goals behind! How else is this ball played?

So when the game resumed, the Barcelona players were indeed very chaotic for a while, some players wanted to attack, some players were immersed in the blow of conceding the goal and did not come to their senses, and some players wanted to stabilize the situation first.

Barcelona was out of line, the offense and defense were unbalanced, and the front and back were divided.

After Gao Bo saw such a scene on the sidelines, he immediately shouted to the Atletico Madrid players to continue attacking!

Now is a good opportunity to take advantage of Barcelona's chaotic period to score another goal, and this game will be even more stable!

And as a sworn enemy, Atletico Madrid certainly wouldn't mind stepping on Barcelona's corpse a few more times.

A few minutes after Atletico Madrid's third goal, Barcelona's defence was once again under attack from Atletico Madrid!

In the exclamations of the stands, Valdés made several thrilling saves in a row, so that Barcelona did not concede the fourth goal!

And Pep Guardiola, who was on the sidelines, also knew that what Barcelona needed now was unity of thought, so he kept reminding Barcelona's players with gestures and shouts on the sidelines.

Barcelona's players are all world-class stars, so their panic didn't last long, and soon Barcelona regrouped, and once they stabilized the situation, they started to attack!

It's a shame not to get on the scoresheet, but the three-goal lead is already very satisfying for Atletico Madrid.

So after Barcelona stabilized, Atletico Madrid did not press up and fight against Barcelona, and now they have a three-goal advantage, and it is undoubtedly risky to go against Barcelona.

What if you concede a goal?

In the middle of the half, it is not difficult for Atletico Madrid to hold on to three goals. On the road, the most important thing is to get the three points steadily.

So Atletico Madrid immediately resumed their momentum in the second half of the first half, and they tightened their defense!

Although Barcelona is gradually recovering from the blow of conceding the goal, it may not be easy to reach the mental state that just started in the second half, so it is difficult for them to create any good chances for a while in the face of Atletico Madrid's copper money iron wall!

The game began to be deadlocked, and the two sides continued to entangle in the midfield.

This kind of game situation is naturally acceptable to Atletico Madrid, even if this situation is maintained until the end of the game, it doesn't matter to them, anyway, they are now the leading side, and it is just Barcelona who should be in a hurry!

So Gao Bo crossed Erlang's legs in the coach's seat, now for Gao Bo, Atletico Madrid has an absolute advantage in the situation, although now the possession rate is more than Barcelona, but this is not a big deal, as a head coach, he only cares about the result!

As long as they can get three points in this game, Atletico Madrid will have an absolute advantage in the battle for the league title.

Therefore, Gao Bo will not take the initiative to make changes, and it is Pep Guardiola who needs to make changes.

Gao Bo looked inside the stadium and looked at the Barcelona coach's box.

Barcelona's bench players are all out and now for Barcelona, they have to make some changes.

Gao Bo is ready to see how Guardiola makes substitutions and then makes adjustments.

A minute or two later, Boyang was standing next to Pep Guardiola.

Gao Bo showed an expression that was really like this, Guardiola can not adjust much, on the bench of Barcelona, there is only one Boyang who can play forward, most of Barcelona's substitutes are concentrated in the midfield, the midfielders have Keita, Afelai, Mascherano also sat on the bench, as well as central defender Abidal, fullback Adriano and others.

If Guardiola wants to strengthen the attack, he can only make a fuss in the midfield, and Boyang may be the best option for Guardiola at this stage.

La Masia's new talented attacker, who is even on par with Messi in the youth team, is seen as the future of Barcelona.

But Gao Bo knew that Boyang's future development was not going well, and after a few seasons, as he grew older and Barcelona brought in more strikers, Boyang lost his place at Camp Nou, and the La Masia talent had to leave for opportunities elsewhere.

"In the 60th minute of the game, Barcelona were ready to make a substitution! Boyang came on, and he was going to replace Maxwell!! ”

Aduris said from the commentary seat.

"Replace a defender, replace a striker, Barcelona are ready to make a last stand!"

Boyang was soon on the field.

Then Gao Bo also warmed up with his players on the bench, and then he came to the sidelines, he was going to take a look at Barcelona's specific tactical changes first, and make targeted substitution adjustments.

Sixty minutes into the game, it was time for a change.

After Boyang came on the field, he played to the right side, while Messi went to the middle, retreated to a deeper position, and Xavi and Iniesta worked together in the middle of the front field to pass and cut, Boyang and Pedro were responsible for opening up the space, and in the back, Busquets and Alves and Pique came up together to control the landing point on the periphery, while Puyol dragged alone at the end, as the last central defender who dragged behind.

Barcelona almost turned the formation around, piling up several attackers in the front, especially in the midfield, Barcelona piled up an absolute numerical advantage!

Gao Bo also responded at this time!

Mario Suarez was standing on the sidelines, ready to play, and he was going to replace Reyes!

Gao Bo is ready to send an interceptor in the midfield to continue to strengthen the defense of the midfield!

There is still about half an hour left until the end of the race.

Gao Bo intends to gradually increase the pressing in the central midfield, slow down Barcelona's attack as much as possible, and keep the football away from the Atletico Madrid penalty area, so that Atletico Madrid's defense will naturally be more solid.

Mario Suarez was on the pitch soon and now Atletico Madrid's formation has changed to 442.

N'Golo Kante and Mario Suarez form a barrier in the middle, with Sergio Aguero and Antoine Griezmann in front of them, while Luka Modric and Raul Garcia flanked them in midfield.

Atletico Madrid was fully on the defensive.

Gao Bo is ready to defend this victory!
