Pep Guardiola immediately stood outside the penalty area and shouted at the closed gate: "Tony. Donne, you shrunken turtle! What a hero is hiding inside! I have the ability to come out and fight to the death with my grandfather!! ”

Tang En hid behind the high gate and the city wall and replied, "Whether I am a good man or not, you are not qualified to evaluate. Aren't you known as the number one in the world? You have the ability to attack it! If you can't get in, you can only shout, what kind of hero is it?! ”

"You have the ability to come out!"

"Cut, I don't want to, you bite me?"

"You shameless old thief! Come out and fight me to the death! ”

"I can't get out, what can you do with me?"

"Hah! Don't dare to come out and fight with dignity like a man. Girls who can only hide inside with their necks bent! ”

"Haha! Am I a man, do you want to come in and experience it for yourself? ”

"Okay, you shameless Donn, I count three times, you can't get out?"

"What are you going to do if I don't come out!"

"You're not coming out...... If you don't come out, I'll go in!! ”

"Okay, okay, you have the ability, you can try it!"

"One!"

"Keep going."

"Two ......"

This time, before Guardiola counted the "three", the city gate suddenly opened in front of him, and a team of hussars rushed out, killing him by surprise!

※※※

"Pepe cut off Bojan's pass to Silva, he was in the right position and judged the way in advance! He handed over the football to George, who picked him up. Wood! ”

The man who came out with the ball was none other than George. Wood. He leaned on his body to lean on Andres Iniesta, who had stepped forward to defend him, and then passed the ball diagonally to Lennon on the wing. It was up to Lennon to lead Nottingham Forest's quick counter-attack.

'Nottingham Forest have had very few decent counter-attacks so far and have not been a threat on the counter-attack due to the lack of force up front. Is it the same this time? ”

No, this time is very different!

After Wood finished passing, he did not stay at the back to prepare for the defense, but followed Lennon through the midfield.

"Lennon is very fast! Barcelona pressed collectively, and the back defense was weak, which was a great opportunity to counterattack! ”

Ram had just pressed up and attacked, and was now desperately chasing after Lennon's ass. However, his speed could not keep up with Lennon's speed with the ball. So Pique, who was in charge of the middle, was moving towards Lennon, intending to block his former teammate in front.

Pique was familiar with Lennon, and Lennon was as familiar with Piqua as he saw Piqua coming up, and he knew that the middle would inevitably be empty. At this time, it depends on whether you have the awareness and skills to change the football out.

Who's in the middle of the lane?

Ibisevic!

Lennon passed the ball as Piqui rushed up to block him, but he didn't stop after the pass and continued to run forward.

All Nottingham Forest players don't stop when they pass the ball on the counter-attack, but keep running forward. This is an important condition for counter-attacking - playing in place will not be able to play a quick counter-attack for a lifetime.

Lennon was running forward, Matthias on the other side. Fernandez is also running forward, as well as Shaheen and George. Wood, and even Thiago, are sprinting in full force. This is the opportunity they have been waiting for for most of the half, and they must not let it go!

Ibisevic received the ball and passed it to Fernandez to the right without waiting for Puyol to press it.

Because Alves assisted too far forward, he was still chasing behind Fernandez at this time. And Fernandez has a flat front in front of him!

"Barcelona's defence is completely empty! None of them expected Nottingham Forest's counterattack to be so resolute and deadly! ”

Tang En crossed Erlang's legs off the court, and a smug smile appeared on his face.

"Now it's three against two...... No, four, five, four! ”

Ram managed to drive back, but instead of chasing Lennon, he made up for the middle. At this point, Nottingham Forest's chances of playing the ball to the left are too slim. The end point of the attack must still be in the middle, and only the defense back to the middle is the most correct choice.

Also in place is their midfielder Yaya. Toure.

Mathias. After Fernandez cut into the box, Puyol got in and Ibisevic had Yaya. Toure helps him with the marker and he can focus his full attention on Fernandez.

Seeing that he could not shoot directly, Fernandez made a quick stop to pass the ball to the back.

Ibisevic took the lead and rushed to the front, and the football was clearly not passed to him.

Shaheen was unmarked when he received the football, and he didn't hesitate to shoot directly with his feet!

"Shahin shoots from distance!"

Fortunately, Valdés was quick and focused, and was not deceived by Fernandez's incision, who was on the lookout for the Forest players in the middle as well as Fernandez.

Valdés wanted to hold the football directly, but the moment the football touched his fingertips, he realized that the football itself had a very strong rotation, and his original gesture could not hold the football, so he could only rush to hit it.

The soccer ball bounced off his fingertips and was out of his hands!

"Vedad. Ibisevic! He appeared at the point where the ball landed...... Header! goal！ goooooal！！ goooooooooooal——！ ”

Yaya. Toure lost his target the moment Shaheen shot as he turned his attention to Shahin, who was shooting. Ibisevic passed him and waited for Valdés to get out of the way.

The Barcelona players had doubts about Forest's goal, believing that Ibisevic might have been in an offside position before Shaheen's shot, but in fact he only moved forward after Shaheen's shot and was not offside.

Don slapped hard and got up from his seat, very excited. He finally got the away goal!

Guardiola, on the other hand, waved his hand helplessly. He knew Nottingham Forest would fight back, but he didn't expect it to be so sudden...... Because it was the peak of his team's offensive at that time, it seemed that he was only one step away from scoring a goal. Unexpectedly, Nottingham Forest went against the tide and equalized with a counterattack.

Ibisevic celebrated with a slap after his goal, and the England commentator was particularly excited: "This is Super Ibby's twentieth goal of the season!" Hey, Carl. Mr. Spike, are you watching this game? Are you ready to say goodbye to your hair? Ha ha! ”

Although the person who Ibisevic fanned was Karl. Spike, but the Barcelona fans, who don't know the inside story, took this action as a provocation by the Nottingham Forest players to themselves, and there was a big boo for a while.

In the midst of such boos, Ibisevic switched to another celebratory gesture - he put his finger to his lips and motioned for everyone in the stands to shut up. That's really provoking Barcelona fans......

"Well done, Super Ibby!" Nottingham Forest fans stand in solidarity with Ibisevic. Fight with their singing and the boos of the Barcelona fans.

Forest's players congratulated Ibisevic on his twentieth goal in helping the captain win over Karl. Spike's bet.

Donn smiled at those around him from the sidelines: "Back in England, it's time to urge Spike to make good on his promise as soon as possible." He'd better come to a live broadcast with a shaved head, ha! ”

Donn, who scored an away goal, was in a good mood and was already thinking about humiliating Spike, maybe he would have to call him "Bald Spike" in the future?

※※※

The scoreline was levelled and Barcelona's players suffered a little bit – and then they were less aggressive than before, as there was always a fear of another sharp counter-attack from Nottingham Forest. Nottingham Forest's attack has been strong for a while, and they are looking to take advantage of the opportunity to score two goals to basically set the tone for the second leg.

Unfortunately, they were a little unlucky, and Barcelona's defense was not in vain. Piquet pushed the ball out of the box twice in a row to defuse Nottingham Forest's attack.

After that, the game was back to its previous form, with Barcelona attacking continuously and Nottingham Forest shrinking their defence. However, there were some slight changes: Barcelona began to pay a lot of attention to their backs while attacking, and the number of assists from Alves and Lahm had obviously decreased. Nottingham Forest, on the other hand, was more resolute and daring to commit troops when it came to counter-attacking.

It looks like everyone doesn't want to end this game with a score of 1:1.

※※※

When the game reached the 70th minute, Messi was alive again. He broke through the Forest defence in quick succession in the middle and on the flank, but both saved Akinfeev.

Messi, after a moment of silence, used those two shots to tell everyone in the Forest team that he was the most dangerous player in the game and that if he was ignored, he would die.

One thing Messi knows very well is that Pepe, Barnes and Thiago all have a yellow card in front of him right now, and no matter what he does, he has to make sure that one of the three is sent off, preferably at centre-back, if possible.

So he cut inside from the wing many times to find Pepe.

Pepe also spotted Messi's intentions, but there was nothing he could do about it. Because he can't just run away because he has a yellow card. What to do in normal times and what to do now, he can only pay attention to his defensive actions, don't give Messi the possibility of succeeding, and if he must foul to stop the opponent, the place of the foul cannot be placed in the penalty area.

In the 77th minute, Messi forced a breakthrough through George in the middle. Wood. Wood wanted to use a foul to stop him, but the opponent's body was too flexible, and the slightest gap made him flash out. Now he can face Pepe directly, and if he passes Pepe, Akinfeev will be the only one left in front of him!

Pepe stretched out his foot to break the ball, but asked Messi to push the ball away first. Messi, who turned off the football, did not dodge Pepe, and at that moment his body seemed to have become extremely clumsy, and it seemed as if he couldn't dodge and hit Pepe headfirst, rolled and fell to the ground, and he didn't forget to cover his ankle.

The referee's whistle rang out along with the boos of the Barcelona fans.

"Block the foul! And kicked down Messi! Pepe looks like he's in trouble......"

While Pepe went to pull Messi, he reached out and shook it to the referee, indicating that he was not a foul. What made him so anxious was that he had seen the referee reach for his chest pocket......

What does that action mean?

"No!" Don also shouted loudly when he saw this scene from the sidelines. "It's not a foul! This is definitely not enough for a yellow card foul! Are you a referee who is intentional! ”

His shouting didn't stop the referee from showing Pepe a second yellow card and the Brazilian was sent off!

A crowd of Nottingham Forest players swarmed up and surrounded the referee, who could not accept such a result.

"Actually, there is nothing to argue, if Pepe doesn't foul, Messi will break through him and then face goalkeeper Akinfeev directly, it will be a one-on-one goal! It's not wrong to give a yellow card! ”

When Don saw the referee pull out the red card, he flew into a rage off the field. An equaliser would have been equalised, and as the clock ticked down, things should be getting more and more in their favour for Nottingham Forest. Now that the main central defender has been sent off, facing Barcelona's bombardment, how will Nottingham Forest play?

Playing against a team like Barcelona, one less person and the same number of people is very different. There will never be a situation where one person is less than the same.

The fourth official came up and told Don to stop a little, and Don turned around and walked back with a curse. Pepe's sending off is irrevocable, and in all fairness it was a foul, and he had to accept it if he was unhappy.

The referee dispersed the crowd and urged Pepe to leave the pitch quickly. The Brazilian defender just left to the boos of the home fans.

However, he did not return to the locker room, but stood at the entrance and continued to follow the game.

※※※

Pepe was sent off and Donn was forced to make a substitution. Woodgate replaced Shaheen. When Shaheen was off the field, Don stepped forward to shake his hand and comfort him. There's really no way around it...... Shaheen's performance was not bad, and he also indirectly assisted Ibisevic's goal. But in this case, the two midfielders must not move, and neither can the forwards, because Don still wants to counterattack. The two wings are unbalanced, and the only person who can move is the forward Shahin.

"You've done a good job, Nouri. There's nothing to be frustrated about, it's just our luck...... A bit ...... poor"

Don said it to Shahin, and he told it to himself.

It's a tough game...... Defending this one ball may be the highest goal.

※※※

"Barcelona stepped up their attack, facing Nottingham Forest, who had one man less, and they pressed all over the line, intending to take advantage of the opportunity to finish off their opponents! Pepe's unexpected departure caused a lot of trouble for Forest. Maybe Tony. Don should think about it, being able to leave Camp Nou with a 1-1 score would be the biggest win...... But will Pep Guardiola give him such a chance? This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for Barcelona! I think Nottingham Forest is in danger. ”

"That's right, Calvin. But I don't think Nottingham Forest will lose 1-2 to Barcelona, it's not unacceptable, they still have a home stadium, and it's hard to say what will happen then. If Pep Guardiola wins himself, he will regret going to England. With about 12 minutes left in the game, Barcelona would do well to score two more goals to put Nottingham Forest's hopes of qualification to an end once and for all! With Barcelona's attacking prowess, I don't think it's an impossible task......"
