Chapter 256: Another Man Who Stood Up (2-in-1 Chapter)

Duan Xuan was worried about Li Qingshan's goal luck. But from the standpoint of the Barcelona fans, Li Qingshan's shot made them break out in a cold sweat.

At the Olympic Stadium in Berlin, almost all Barcelona fans were scared by Li Qingshan's cold shot.

They collectively let out a "nest .....", probably because they soon found out that it was too embarrassing to be scared, so they quickly rang out boos.

Naturally, Atletico Madrid's supporters would not allow their players to be booed, and they soon overpowered the boos of the Barcelona fans with loud cheers.

When Bravo put the ball on the line of the small penalty area with palpitations and sent it out in front of the goal, and Barcelona's ball control game continued, everyone was still talking about Li Qingshan's shot just now.

Turn around and volley on the spot, full of power. Simple and crude, but very effective.

This is Li Qingshan's style. He is incompatible with Barcelona's style of football, although Barcelona controls most of the ball on the field, but with sporadic counterattacks, Li Qingshan still creates enough pressure for Barcelona.

He is simply Barcelona's nemesis.

He's too strong and his header is too good........... And Barcelona is like a tight instrument that runs smoothly, and when it encounters an unreasonable hammer like Li Qingshan, as soon as the hammer goes down, something will go wrong with the gear link of the instrument.......

It's a real headache.

But to Enrique's slight consolation on the sidelines, his pre-match arrangements worked. At least Atletico Madrid can't afford to create a constant flow of crosses like they did the last time the two sides met.

Li Qingshan is indeed full of threat, but Atletico Madrid's offensive is not sustained, only sporadic counterattacks. In this way, the pressure on Barcelona is much less – albeit still very high.

Li Qingshan shot at the neutral post, and the next step was naturally Barcelona's attacking organization.

The initiative on the field was controlled by the opponent, which naturally made Simeone a little anxious off the field. Now the game has come to almost 70 minutes, this is a very critical period of time, this time period has reached a limit of physical fitness of both sides, especially for the defending team, as long as you are not careful, you may concede the goal!

Atletico Madrid's tactics are designed with Li Qingshan as the core, and Li Qingshan's greatest power is naturally super physical fitness and personal impact, which can stir up Barcelona's backline and make it uneasy. This requires Atletico Madrid to play long balls directly from the midfield even if they can't cross from the flank. But now Atletico Madrid is very difficult to win the ball, and the number of attacks they can launch has plummeted.

The key to this is Mathieu, who was just one of Barcelona's main substitutes, but he didn't expect Enrique to play such a good role with such a player at a critical moment.

On the side of Atletico Madrid, Thiago, Raul Garcia, and Miranda all had yellow cards on their backs, and Raul Garcia said that Thiago and Miranda are the defensive backbones of the midfield, and with yellow cards on them, it is natural that Messi, who frequently comes to this area, seems to be shrinking, which makes Messi's play space also play.

Simeone is about to consider substitutions, and this is also a time node that needs to be replaced!

Just when Simeone was thinking about countermeasures on the sidelines, Barcelona's offensive rhythm suddenly accelerated!

"Messi!! Messi's beautiful !! He passed Gabi who was defending him!! ”

"Oh oh oh, Gabi's next move was a foul that deserved a yellow card!! However, he still couldn't stop Messi's breakthrough, and he shoveled in the back! He didn't tackle the ball or the man!! ”

In this game, Messi frequently moved from the right side to the middle, whether it was Atletico Madrid's left full-back Siqueira, or the two defensive midfielders, they were all very embarrassed by the active Messi.

This time, Gabi simply didn't even have time to foul, he handed over his entire focus, and at this time he had nothing to do with Messi. And Thiago is also chasing after Messi at the moment, but he doesn't dare to foul now - he has a yellow card on him, and if the foul behind his back is not good, he will be shown another yellow card.

Thiago worked hard, but the more he chased him, the more distance he got between him and Messi – his speed was completely out of the way to get close to Messi.

After passing Gabi, Messi continued to dribble forward.

Godin knew that Messi could not be allowed to move forward at this time, and he rushed forward after Messi passed Gabi.

However, Messi changed direction horizontally and shot directly with his feet!

Such a change in rhythm, such a connection speed, so that Gabi has no way to stop the opponent's shot.

Fortunately, Oblak's concentration was quite focused, and he pounced sideways and used his fingertips to pull the ball off the line.

Atletico Madrid supporters gasped.

It's so dangerous!!

"Pretty !!"

"Beautiful!! Beautiful shot!! Almost, just a little!! Messi overtook the score again for Barcelona!! ”

The fans of Barcelona and the media of Catalonia are in good spirits at the moment!!

This is Messi!! Our Messi!!

Barcelona fans are rightfully Messi's fans, in their eyes, Messi is the first person to be taken for granted in today's football, in front of him, what Ronaldo, what Li Qingshan........... All the chickens and dog ears!

For Barcelona, their biggest task is to make Messi play comfortably, as long as Messi plays normally, no team in this world can stop them!

No matter how tight the defense is, Messi alone can pass all of you and then shoot and score.

The Barcelona fans in the stands burst into cheers as they stood up and chanted Messi's name.

They are like fanatics crying out to their gods.

"Messi's brilliant breakthrough shot!! This match is not only a duel between Atletico Madrid and Barcelona, but also a battle between Li Qingshan and Messi to challenge the throne!!! ”

Before the game, many media mentioned that if Li Qingshan leads Atletico Madrid to successfully defend the Champions League, he will have a very high probability of defeating Messi to win this year's Golden Ball!

This is Li Qingshan's challenge to Messi, the king of football who has won four Golden Ball awards!

Messi also has a lot of fans in China, but compared with Li Qingshan, Chinese fans still support Li Qingshan.

At least these Chinese in the stands of the Olympic Stadium in Berlin.

Messi has his followers, and Li Qingshan has his most loyal fans.

The fans in the stands also began to compete with each other, chanting Li Qingshan's name!

And on the sidelines, Simeone was ready for a substitution.

Mario Suarez and Saul stood on the sidelines!

The passivity on the pitch made Simeone make the decision to change two players. Now the time of the game is the most crucial time, Simeone wants to send two new forces to snatch the initiative back!

However, it was a Barcelona corner at the moment. Simeone pulled the pair and was going to make a substitution after Barcelona had taken the corner.

Generally speaking, when defending set-pieces, there are very few substitutions, especially when changing defensive players. Players who have just come on the pitch may not have enough pace and adaptability to the game, and it is likely to become a hidden danger to change the pitch in this situation.

Therefore, it is normal for Simeone to choose to wait for a Barcelona corner before making a substitution.

Barcelona's corner did not opt to pass the ball directly into the Atletico Madrid penalty area.

It is obviously difficult to get the Barcelona players to compete with the Atletico Madrid players for high balls. Atletico Madrid's two centre-backs are very good at defending high-altitude balls head-on, and Li Qingshan is also back in the box to participate in the defense of corner kicks at the moment.

Therefore, Barcelona multiple-choice question a tactical corner.

Standing in the corner flag area, Neymar gently passed the ball to Iniesta, who was not far from him, and then went around from behind Iniesta.

Atletico Madrid's formation began to press out, and Iniesta made a cross and flicked his ankle to push the ball towards the top of the box.

By this time, Neymar had already swam to this side, just in time to receive a pass from Iniesta.

After receiving the ball, Neymar stopped the ball a little and cut inside a little, and shot directly with his feet.

The shot was quite sudden, and the arc and angle of the shot were beyond Oblak's reach.

When the ball went in at the back post, the fans and the Atletico Madrid players were a little stunned.

It wasn't until the Barcelona players started hugging and celebrating that the Atletico Madrid players had to accept the reality that they had conceded again!!

"Neymar !!!"

"A direct shot from the left side of the penalty area, the ball bypassed all the defenders and flew into the goal like a cruise missile!"

"A perfect precision strike!!"

"Now Atletico Madrid is in trouble!! They're in trouble!! ”

"Before Neymar scored, all eyes were on Messi and Li Qingshan, as if the game between these two teams was completely a duel between Messi and Li Qingshan, but Neymar announced to us with a beautiful shot that he would also have a place!!

Simeone was writing and drawing in a small notebook, laying out something for Mario Suarez and Saul, but as soon as Neymar scored the goal, Simeone threw the pen in his hand and angrily tore up the tactical arrangement he had written.

Obviously, now these arrangements are useless, and he has to make new arrangements.

The Atletico Madrid players were a little stunned, they were bursting with confidence, but with Barcelona firmly controlling the possession of the game, the confidence of the Atletico Madrid players was shaken a little.

Neymar's goal was indeed very sudden, but compared to the previous pressure of Barcelona, the goal did not seem abrupt.

They were clearly knocked out technically by Barcelona.

Li Qingshan clapped his palms vigorously and said loudly to his teammates.

"Cheer up, there's still time to play!! We're going to score goals!! ”

In a certain box in the stadium stands, Raiola looked at Li Qingshan, who was working hard to boost the morale of his teammates on the field, and shook his head slightly.

In his opinion, the team of Atletico Madrid is no longer worthy of Li Qingshan.

With his experience with Atletico Madrid, he would never think that Atletico Madrid is a team with big ambitions, they are not willing to invest, they just want to make money with Atletico Madrid.

Of course, there is nothing wrong with making money. But Atletico Madrid's way of making money is clearly despised by Raiola, where are the big teams making money by selling players? You have what it takes to make a lot of money like Manchester United and run a lot of money through global business operations.

Atletico Madrid's hierarchy are reluctant to invest more in player recruitment and player salaries, which obviously means that the team has no ambitions.

If Li Qingshan is a veteran who is over 30 years old, Raiola will not have any opinions. But he's only 22 years old this year, a young player who has the potential to compete for the Ballon d'Or at the age of 22, staying in a team like Atletico Madrid. In Raiola's eyes, this is nothing short of a tyrannical thing!

Just like the situation on the field at the moment, Li Qingshan worked hard, but his team was still behind. Messi didn't score, but Barcelona didn't just have Messi, they also had Neymar and Suarez.

And Atletico Madrid can only rely on Li Qingshan. Once Li Qingshan's form fluctuates, Atletico Madrid will have to be blind.

How can you compete with others like this?

To win the Golden Globe, collective accolades are indispensable. However, Raiola does not think that Atletico Madrid can remain competitive for several years in a row, even if Li Qingshan stays at Atletico Madrid, other players of Atletico Madrid will become prey to the giants. A team that can't keep its main players will have to pay the price sooner or later in terms of results.

For these, Raiola has seen a lot of work in European professional football for so many years.

In professional football, of course, it is not necessary to rely on money alone, but it is absolutely impossible to do without money.

However, Li Qingshan did not seem to have any intention of leaving Atletico Madrid, which made Raiola helpless.

But the attitude of Atletico Madrid's side ........... Raiola was a little confused.

Where the negotiations between Atletico Madrid and Wang Jianling have progressed, Raiola is naturally unclear. However, there is no rush to sign a contract after an agreement is reached, and Raiola has rarely seen it. It stands to reason that Atletico Madrid should be in a hurry.

Raiola put his doubts behind him for a moment and focused on watching the game. Although I don't like Atletico Madrid in my heart because they don't have money, he Raiola likes money the most. But now, of course, he wants Atletico Madrid to win the title.

After all, if Atletico Madrid wins the championship, Li Qingshan has a good chance of winning the Golden Ball! His own players won the Golden Ball, and the benefits in this made Raiola very hot.
