"Almost ten minutes into the first half, Valencia didn't look at their best because they were beaten by the home team Barcelona during this time, and the defence looked a bit chaotic, not to mention the quick counter-attacks that they are good at! If...... If this continues, then ...... This game will most likely be in the hands of Barcelona. ”

Huang Jianxiang looked at the game on the big screen, and felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, after broadcasting so many games in Valencia, he had already made himself a fan of Valencia, but his only remaining professionalism allowed him to watch the game from a neutral point of view.

"It's not okay to go on like this! We must do our best to make a change!! 'Hyde was the most nervous in recent times about the game between Valencia and Barcelona because the game at Camp Nou is very important and if you are not careful, it will bring endless disasters.

Barry took over at the right time, "That's true, we have to do everything we can to make changes, otherwise if Barcelona continue to play like this, we will play very passively, and if we lose the goal, we will be even more ......"

Before Barry could finish speaking, Barcelona organized an attack at this time.

As usual, Deco and Xavi passed the ball to each other in midfield, and if a Valencia defender came up, it would move the ball to a safer place.

Baraja and Albelda thought the same way.

Because for almost ten minutes in the opening game, Barcelona played like this, using their traditional pass-and-control football to consume the body of their players.

At the same time, Messi, Samuel Eto'o and Ronaldinho also started to run without the ball at this point.

Rufit, Marchena and Aurelio each stared at a Barcelona player without feeling any pressure, knowing that as long as they did in the previous minutes, paying attention to cutting off the link between the Barca midfielders and the frontline players would make it easier to defend this time.

At the same time, they also know to pay attention to whether the Barcelona players will suddenly make a lethal pass under the careless passing, so the attention of the players in the back line is very focused, without a trace of relaxation.

But it is this kind of focused look that often causes irreparable damage.

So at this time, left wing-back Van Bronckhorst quietly stepped forward, but no one noticed, and right-back Moretti only focused on Ronaldinho, the world footballer.

Thereupon...... Xavi did not stop the ball when he received the ball from Deco, but to the surprise of all the Valencia players, he suddenly picked up the pace and made a long pass.

The ball streaked through the air, and Marchena, who was dragging at the back, subconsciously wanted goalkeeper Canizares to handle the ball.

But the moment he turned around, he suddenly smelled a dangerous smell.

Really!

There is a Barcelona player in a red and blue jersey who is approaching the football at high speed, and he is also closer than the goalkeeper Canizares.

Canizares glanced at Van Bronckhorst, who seemed to be closer to football, so he decisively stepped back towards goal, while also reminding defenders to make up for it.

Marchena was immediately so frightened that the three souls were gone, and the seven spirits were gone, and he chased back.

Of course, while chasing back, he did not forget to raise his right arm and remind the linesman that the Barcelona player was suspected of offside.

It's just that it's all in vain.

He was joined by Ayala and Moretti, who wanted to defuse Barcelona's attack.

Van Bronckhorst swept the ball into the box against the football, and Marchena's outstretched right leg was half a beat late, and the ball rolled into the box at high speed.

The goal was so quick and fast that the Valencia defenders in the penalty area did not dare to stretch their legs at will, for fear of accidentally causing an own goal.

So they focused their attention on Ronaldinho and Eloao who were ready to receive passes, while Messi, who was the shortest, was habitually ignored by them.

But it was this neglect that caused Valencia irreparable damage.

Messi is like a loach, from the crowd into the small penalty area, and then the short leg stretched, the football changed direction, Canizares subconsciously made a save, but was powerless to return to the sky.

The ball grazed the far corner post and rolled into the net to break the deadlock!

Suddenly, the Camp Nou stadium erupted in long-lost cheers!

Finally ahead of Valencia at the Camp Nou, not easy!!

At the same time, Messi also clenched his fists!!

Finally! In the semi-finals of the Champions League, he knocked on the goal of Valencia.

Of course, at this time, Messi also had to show off to Iroh.

However, he regretted that Iroh was not annoyed by this, but smiled and shook his head, looking very unconcerned.

But this expression is a different flavor in Messi's eyes, so you can continue to pretend! By the time you lose at Camp Nou, you'll know how painful I felt when I was in pain!!

*****

Messi's goal thrilled Barcelona fans and made Valencia fans unhappy, but their less than 10,000 people couldn't compete with nearly 80,000 home fans anyway.

Conceding the first goal made Valencia's players feel uneasy.

That's the difference between a league and a cup.

Because the league is a long season, if you lose, you will lose, and the next game will come, but the cup is different, and it is only a two-legged knockout round, and even one goal will affect the final result.

So...... Valencia's players are starting to panic.

After all, with the exception of Albelda and Canizares, none of the players on the pitch had experience in the Champions League semi-finals, so they didn't know what to do when they were behind.

Although Albelda worked very hard in midfield, he could not comb the whole midfield by one person, and it took every team-mate to cooperate.

After conceding the goal, in addition to the three veteran players of Canizares, Ayala and Albelda, who are more normal, Ailo in the front court is more normal.

However, Albelda alone in midfield cannot take care of both his own defense and attack, because he is now negligent in defense and has no extra energy to devote to attacking.

So Valencia's offensive could not be stretched.

It was not a solution for Iello to stand alone in the front court, so as Barcelona attacked, he also returned to the first 30 meters of his own half to help defend.

Flores looked at the mental state of the players on the field, and his brows were about to change from Sichuan to wavy.

He was afraid that Barcelona would take advantage of the momentum of the goal and kill the game directly, and it would be really difficult to do it at that time.

"Forget it, let's defend first!" Flores muttered.

Taking advantage of a dead-ball opportunity, Floreston Guò Ailo sent a message to the players on the field, which was to defend first and then counter-attack when the opportunity came.

After all, it's the semi-finals of the Champions League, and even a goal at Camp Nou is acceptable.

But once you concede two goals on this pitch, then the Champions League final is difficult to say.

Judging from the previous ten minutes of play, the Champions League is really different from La Liga.

Like in the league, players like Ronaldinho, Eto'o and Deco are not in this state at all, if the current table xiàn is a superstar level, then the table xiàn in the league can only be regarded as a first-class star level.

So it's still necessary to shrink the defense during this time.

With Valencia retreating, Barcelona have fewer and fewer chances.

Interestingly, as Valencia's defence became more solid, the chances of counter-attacking began to increase, and gradually the tempo of the game increased.

The six attacking players of Elo, Vicente, David Villa, Ronaldinho, Samuel Eto'o and Lionel Messi were all players of great speed, so there was a period of continuous long balls.

That is, after the two sides successfully defended, they did not pass through the organization of the midfield, but directly passed the guò long pass to organize the attack and hit the opponent's back.

After a few rounds of these attacks in turn, the tempo on the field became a bit chaotic.

In the words of Sky TV commentator Andy Gray, "I felt like I'm back in the Premier League in the last few minutes! ”

Rijkaard's face obviously became very unsightly when he saw that the rhythm of the field was confused by Valencia's defense!

He coached Barcelona with a mastery of pass-and-possession football, and it was only possible to score goals under constant pressure, just like the goal that had been playing less than 10 minutes into the game.

If the tempo is too chaotic and the attack cannot be started, then the scale of victory will most likely tilt in favor of the visiting team Valencia.

That's not what he wants to see.

Because there are too many games to lose to Valencia this season!

At this moment, Valencia organized an attack, and Albelda this time directly bypassed the midfield and came directly with a long pass, which flew straight to the left side of his attack.

Facing Oleg's defense, Iello rubbed the football directly with his chest against the gap between the latter and Puyol, and then started at high speed, instantly overtaking Puyol and Oleg.

Fortunately, in the end, Oleg reacted quickly at this time, sacrificing the ego to fulfill the ego.

Sensing something was wrong, he knocked Ellora to the ground and put an end to Valencia's attack at the cost of a yellow card.

It is worth mentioning that this decision also caused Valencia to be dissatisfied, because from their vision just now, Ailo was basically in a one-on-one position, and Oleg's foul should have been directly red card instead of yellow card.

However, the referee's decision was very resolute and did not change the decision, but showed a yellow card warning to Aimar, who was the most excited.

Oleg paid a yellow card for a defensive success, and it was well worth it.

So Rijkaard, who was on the sidelines, gave him a high thumbs up.

The ensuing game went into a state of attacking and defending each other, with Barcelona beware of Valencia's counter-attack, while Valencia beware of Barcelona's backball, so both sides focused on the midfield battle.

As a result, there are far fewer chances to threaten the opposition goal.

The minutes passed until the referee blew the whistle at the end of the first half, and the score was still 1:0 and the home team was ahead.
