No. 359: Mighty Barcelona!
At 7:45, with the referee's whistle, the 09 UEFA Super Cup officially began!
Barcelona, who took the lead in serving, moved the football to the backfield, and the Wolves midfield flooded the midfield like orange across the half!
Barcelona moved the ball very quickly, basically a one-kick pass, and did not give Wolves a chance to press close in midfield.
But the Wolves players were not discouraged and still frantically launched the siege.
If the Barcelona players are red and blue flowers, then the Wolves players are like tireless bees, flying from one flower to another, busily flying around on different flowers.
Barcelona advanced layer by layer, and the Wolves defence had to move back step by step. Two full minutes passed, and the Wolves players did not even touch the edge of the football, and the football was firmly controlled by Barcelona at their feet!
France TV 2 lamented: "Except for Barcelona, it is difficult for other teams to replicate this style of play that develops passing and control to the extreme!" β
Catalan TV laughed and said: "Isn't this walking monkeys?" β
Sky TV said: "Wolves must not be discouraged, they must be patient, they must defend well, there are always times when the opponent makes mistakes. β
Major TV stations have expressed their opinions.
In the VIP seat, Rijkaard looked calm, perhaps in his opinion, it is very normal for Barcelona to have the upper hand. Blatter nodded slightly, Barcelona is the future direction of football!
Ince, who was standing in the command area, saw that his players were so "elegant" and shouted towards the court: "Be aggressive!" β
If the pace of the game is completely controlled by Barca, it will be a joke for Wolves to try to compete with them.
The Wolves players listened to Ince's shouts and moved more and more, and the moment Messi got the ball in the heart of the Wolves in the third minute, Kentin took it down strongly.
"Tick! ......" The referee blew the whistle and awarded a direct free kick to Barcelona. Peter came up to Messi, bent down and sneered: "You are too thin! β
Alves raised an eyebrow. He pushed Peter away and scolded, "What's the use of being strong? Have you ever touched a football? β
Peter's face was ugly, he was originally here to block Messi, but in the end it was really himself. The Wolves striker snorted coldly and said, "We'll see!" β
The free-kick was far from the pitch and it was not easy to shoot directly, but it could send the ball into the box and allow Ibrahimovic to head the ball.
However, Barcelona abandoned this tactic, and Messi passed the football to Xavi next to him, who immediately passed the football back to the back line.
Barcelona played unhurriedly. Keeping the ball firmly under your feet is like showing the world what passing is. Wolves players can only interrupt the opponent's rhythm with fouls again and again.
For a while, the Barcelona players fell to the ground one after another.
In the sixth minute, Peter brought Xavi down in the hinterland and the referee awarded Barcelona a free-kick. Messi didn't wait for the referee's whistle to blow a quick free kick and pass the football to Henry in front of his left!
Henry understands it and passes it horizontally!
At the moment, the Wolves backline is in chaos. They didn't expect Barca's free-kick to come so quickly. Oakes yelled: "Block! Blocked! β
Who did the Wolves captain let his teammates block?
At the front of the Wolves penalty area, Messi received Henry's cross, led it with his right foot, and dribbled the ball horizontally!
Kending yelled. Pounced on the Argentine striker!
Messi suddenly accelerated, flicked his right foot forward slightly, and left Kending behind him in one step!
The air in the stadium suddenly became tense, and there was a passage between Messi and the goal. It was enough for the Argentine star to finish off with a long-range shot.
As soon as Kending's center of gravity dropped, he wanted to block the route with a sliding shovel!
Wolves centre-back Craddock moved his position quickly to block the space that appeared in this instant!
However. When he had just taken a step, his face turned white.
Standing on the goal line and preparing to save Messi's long-range shot, Oakes was shocked!
Last season, Barcelona completed the treble, Messi contributed a lot, and his prestige spread far and wide, becoming the most popular candidate for World Footballer of the Year this year.
As long as he has the ball at his feet, he will attract a lot of attention from the opposition backline, not to mention that he is dribbling the ball outside the box at the moment and has space to shoot.
The entire Wolves backline was focused on Messi, and their first instinct was to block a shot at the heart of Barca.
"Smack! ......" There was a crisp sound, and Messi did not shoot directly, but with a diagonal shot, passing the football to the penalty area.
The ball flew past Vekradok's left, and the tall Ibrahimovic stepped forward and waved his right leg!
Standing in the command area, Ince, his eyes glued to his team's penalty area, his heart stopped beating at this moment. His face turned pale due to lack of blood.
Not far away, Pep Guardiola couldn't help but applaud loudly......
Catalan TV shouted: "Wonderful story! Ibrahimovic shoots! β
"Smack! ......" There was a crisp sound, and the football flew out of Ibrahimovic's right foot!
The stadium fell silent!
Beneath the silence swelled with volcanic passion, and the bitter cold of winter. The use of ice and fire to describe Wolves fans and Barcelona fans is the most vivid.
Oakes kicked his right foot violently, roared, and flew out to his right front!
The next moment, Oakes' right hand came into close contact with the football, and then the football flew out of the bottom line!
There was a huge exclamation in the stadium, followed by a huge round of applause. The Barcelona fans gave a round of applause to their players, who played a brilliant combination and almost broke the opposition's goal.
Wolves fans gave applause to the Wolves captain who performed magically, and it was he who used his magical performance to keep the goal intact.
After Oakes got up from the turf, he didn't blame his teammates, but slapped them twice hard, encouraging his pale teammates.
The Wolves fans in the stands looked serious, Barcelona's first attack almost broke through the Wolves goal, can Wolves withstand Barcelona's mercury-like attack?
Sky TV shouted: "Oakes! Oakes saved Ibrahimovic's inevitable shot and his form was red-hot as he continued the magic of the game against Manchester City seven days ago! β
"In the third round of the Premier League, Wolves challenged away, and at the beginning of the game, the referee awarded Manchester City a penalty, and Oakes miraculously saved the football twice. In that game, Wolves reversed away and won the final victory, winning three consecutive Premier League wins in the new season! β
"Wolves have such a good goalkeeper, they have a chance to create better results!"
Catalan TV exclaimed: "Although the goal was not scored, we can see that Ibrahimovic has gradually integrated into Barcelona's attacking system!" β
Messi's pass was just right, but unfortunately the Swede's shot was too straight and was saved. A full six minutes have passed, and the Wolves have not even touched the side of the football except for fouls, and the difference in strength between the two teams is obvious! β
Barcelona's attack was wave after wave, and the Wolves were completely out of breath.
In the seventh minute, Keita tried a long-range shot from outside the box and the ball slid out of the goal!
In the ninth minute, Wolves counterattacked, Bale passed the football into the opponent's penalty area, and the lion king Puyol roared and forced Peter to push the football out of the box. Wang Rui, who was ambushed outside the penalty area, met the ball and shot angrily, and the football flew off the crossbar and out of the bottom line.
Wang Rui completed the first attack of the Wolves team.
In the thirteenth minute, Alves assisted, about five meters from the bottom line, and made a cross!
The football went straight to the small penalty area, and the Wolves penalty area was in a panic, and the air on the pitch became tense again. Ibrahimovic at the front of the post stepped in at high speed to get ready to grab the spot, but Craddock took the lead and kicked the ball out of the box to clear the ball.
In the fifteenth minute, Barcelona made a comeback, and they made a dazzling series of short passes in front of the penalty area, and Thierry Henry crossed diagonally, and he was about to pass the ball to Ibrahimovic.
However, the Swede was half a beat slow to react, and Craddock managed to keep the ball at his feet first. The Wolves central defender made slight adjustments and passed the football to Wang Rui, who was responding in the hinterland, with a direct pass.
This is Wang Rui's third touch of the ball so far in this game, in previous games, the game lasted more than ten minutes, and he should have touched the ball more than 20 times.
From this point of view, how terrible Barca's possession was.
Wang Rui, who took the ball, turned around to the right and a half, and an orange figure in front of him on the left was like a sharp arrow.
The essence of a quick counterattack is a "fast! βοΌ
Pass the ball fast, cut forward fast!
With a "snap ......", Wang Rui didn't wait for Yaya Toure to pounce on him to block, and hit Alves behind him with a kick in the air!
Wolverhampton TV football commentator Andy? Keogh yelled: "Strike back quickly!" β
Two steps, the Welshman only took two steps to leave the Barcelona right-back behind!
Bale takes control of the football and kills the Barcelona penalty area!
In the stands, Wolves fans let out loud cheers, Ince, who was standing in the command area, clenched his fists, and Guardiola frowned slightly......
The Lion King Puyol quickly stepped in and he was going to intercept Bale. In the Barcelona half, Alves and Puyol were the closest Barcelona players to the Welsh, with Pique in the middle, Abidal marking Peter, Wang Rui and Yaya Toure moving forward quickly.
The Wolves trident is like three arrows, and it is quickly inserted into the Barcelona penalty area!
The Barcelona captain has made a name for himself for a long time and is one of the best central defenders in the world today. For some reason, Bale watched Puyol pounce on him, and instead of continuing to dribble the ball, he crossed it horizontally.
Wang Rui moved to meet the ball, Yaya Toure was very accurate, and he didn't give Wang Rui a line to accelerate forward at all.
However, the scene that shocked the whole stadium appeared, Wang Rui did not control the football, but stepped forward and kicked with his left foot. The next moment, the ball makes a wonderful arc in the air!
Sky TV yelled: "Wonderful story! The ball flew right over Abidal's head and Peter caught the ball! β
Catalan TV exclaimed: "ValdΓ©s, now it's up to you!" β
Milan TV exclaimed: "It's a pass in the style of Andrea Pirlo β sudden, precise, tearing through the opposition defence in one fell swoop!" (To be continued......)
