Chapter 230: Insulting the Referee's IQ (18/134)
Lazio scored a goal from Barcelona in the first half, but all eyes were on Butzques' natural performance.
The TV broadcast replayed again and again the footage of Butzques rolling on the ground, while he also had the time to open his hands and peek at the referee.
Butzkes' superb performance stunned fans and commentators around the world.
Everyone couldn't do anything but be stunned in front of such a great performance.
This is no longer a performance that can be described in words.
Everyone can only watch it over and over again, and immerse themselves in this amazing performance over and over again.
It wasn't until the end of the first half that he came to his senses.
"A score of 0:1 is still within an acceptable range for Barcelona." Catalan commentators cheer on the fans.
Fifteen minutes of half-time would be a long time for Barcelona, who are one side behind.

In the dressing room, Mereles knew he would miss the Champions League final because of the yellow card, and he even shed tears of disappointment and surprise.
He felt more and more aggrieved.
Because he doesn't feel like he's fouled!
He was just spreading his arms to protect the ball, and he didn't know if he actually touched Butzkes.
He didn't think he had touched it.
When everyone saw such a sad Mereles, they all came up to comfort him.
Chang Sheng didn't say a word, didn't stop it, just watched from the side.
When the time was almost up, he came up to Mereles and said, "I know it's not fair, Raul (Raul Jose Trinda de Merreles). You did a great job in the game but you were suspended for a false yellow card and the club will do everything possible to appeal for you. But if, I mean, if...... If the appeal fails, I can assure you that. I'll give you back a chance to play in the Champions League final, and I do what I say, Raul. ”
"So now, wipe away your tears. We have forty-five minutes left, and you have forty-five minutes. If you can't play in the final, think of it as if it's your Champions League final, and Barcelona barely deserve to be in the Champions League final......
Mereles nodded and stopped crying.
Chang Sheng turned to the players and said, "Our opponent wants to beat us at all costs. Their fans set off firecrackers outside our hotel in the middle of the night. Their players are framing you on the pitch with a dastardly fake throw...... I see in these their weakness and incompetence! When a team is going to rely on this to beat us, it's dead! You should be happy because you made them not even want to be cheeky! But it's not over yet, there's a second half, and we're going to use those 45 minutes to tell them. Even if they are shameless, they still can't win us! That's the truth! ”

At half-time, Pep Guardiola tactfully criticised Butzques, telling him to focus on the game in the second half rather than on other crooked ways.
"I'm sure the referee has noticed you, Sergio. You'd better be honest in the second half. ”
Butzkes nodded.
If the manager doesn't say it, he will be honest.
In the ensuing game. He could feel that the referee was paying attention to him.
Then Pep Guardiola said to his players: "In the first half we were one goal behind and the aggregate score was ...... Let's not think about the total score. This game is already critical for us. Let's try to play this game well and then think about qualifying for the final. Leave all other distractions behind. I don't want anything but the game. Forty-five minutes left, show the best of you! Only then will you be able to defeat your opponents! ”
Pep Guardiola has also decided not to think about his battle with the ever-winning philosophy and to win this game first......

Referee De Brick and his assistant coach. and the fourth official walked back to the referee's locker room.
As soon as the door closed, there was a discussion about the controversial decision of the first half.
Debrick asked the fourth official, "Did Butzquez really fake a fall?" ”
"I can't see clearly......" replied the fourth official honestly.
"Maybe we should watch the telecasts?" The first assistant referee suggested.
Everyone thought it was a good idea.
So they turned on the television.
You don't have to look for a single station.
As long as it's the TV station that broadcasts this Champions League semi-final. At half-time, there was a discussion about Buzkes' first-half fall.
So when the referees turned on the TV, they saw the full set of actions that Butzkes and Merreles had been in contact with over and over again, from before to after the fall.
The whole process is not missed.
Multi-camera replay ensures that no angle is forgotten.
You can see it clearly.
Although the referee cannot use the live TV footage of the game as the basis for the decision, let alone change the result of the decision he has made, it is not forbidden to watch the video during halftime. The referee can also adjust the scale of the penalty blowing in the next game according to this.
Judging from the replay of the TV broadcast, Merreles did have physical contact with Butzkes, but the physical contact was very slight.
This level of contact was not enough to make Butzkes fall to the ground.
Moreover, the part of contact between Mereles and Butzkes was the chest, but Butzkes covered his face and fell to the ground, which is obviously deception. After all, hitting the chest and concentrating on the face are completely different in the referee's opinion.
He covered his face and fell to the ground to convince the referee that Mereles elbowed him in the face.
If Platini hadn't specifically greeted De Brick before the game and asked him to enforce the law impartially, he might have sent off Merreles with a red card......
Seeing the video of the game, De Brick had to be glad he didn't do it, otherwise he would have been bombarded by public opinion after the game......
He didn't want to be the center of attention.
Next, yes.
Butzkes, who had fallen to the ground, turned around a few times, then lay on his side on the ground, and then opened his hands covering his face. A sneak peek!
As for what he was aiming at, several referees present knew it in their hearts......
The fourth official couldn't help but laugh when he saw this scene: "He still has the leisure to care whether you give Merreles a card or not, De Brick!" You only gave a yellow card, I think he must have been disappointed! ”
Debrick couldn't laugh at it, he had a gloomy face.
He was upset.
Being deceived like a clown, teased, and changing anyone will be unhappy.
Butzkes is insulting his own IQ and personality.
Debrick felt unbearable.
Why does the referee hate fake falls?
Because everyone hates to be deceived. And the fake fall is precisely the player deceiving the referee and making a profit, and he is still proud after success.
They were so proud at a time. Do you treat the referee as air?
If the referee doesn't find out, that's fine.
Did the referee find out?
They will be like Debrick, angry from the bottom of their hearts.
Everyone is an adult, but they are teased like children by others.
De Brick is unlikely to have his yellow card for Mereles revoked, but there are ways to remedy it.
That was in the second half against Barcelona and especially Buzques.
In this game Butzks was on his blacklist. As long as there is physical contact, Butzquez falls to the ground. He would first consider whether Butzkes had faked another fall.
There is no way, people with criminal records can only get such treatment.

The break was over and everyone went back to their positions.
Players from both sides stand on the pitch and wait for the game to begin.
When referee De Brick was in position, he glanced at Buzques again.
The weak-hearted Butzkes also noticed this, and when he saw the referee look at him again, he shrunk his neck.
It seems that this will make the referee not pay attention to himself.
Referee De Brick saw Butzkes shrink his neck. Typical manifestations of heart weakness.
Now do you know that your heart is empty? Why did you go earlier?
De Brick quietly looked away.
Then he blew the whistle for the start of the second half.

In the second half, Lazio continued their fast-paced attacking style of play in the first half. Defensively, they also continued to use tactics to block Barcelona's passing routes and surround Barcelona players with the ball.
This style of play works well, but it just consumes energy.
Just after a fifteen-minute half-time break, Lazio's fitness is not too much of a problem. Guardiola may have to wait a long time when they are exhausted.
On the pitch, Barcelona was uncomfortable with the pace of their ever-winning teams because they insisted on playing fast. So Barcelona is being suppressed by Lazio.
Lazio's performance has left many people feeling incredible.
Lazio can suppress Barcelona on their home turf, and that's it. After all, it is Lazio's home stadium, and in its own home turf, Lazio's combat power is to be doubled.
But now it's Barcelona's home stadium, which has the advantage of being at home, with 100,000 passionate fans cheering them on.
In their own home, Barcelona is still being pressed and beaten by Lazio, which is very telling.
Being able to play against Barcelona at Camp Nou, there are very few teams like this.
It's unheard of to be able to suppress Barcelona by playing against each other!
When did Pep Guardiola's dream three team ever be so embarrassed?
In the past, they suppressed other teams, swept other teams, scored five or six goals a game and played like playing.
In last year's Champions League final, Barcelona defeated Bayern Munich, and the dignified Bundesliga boss was beaten by Barcelona without any temper, and only had the ability to parry in the game, and had no power to fight back.
Let's not talk about the score of this game, just the scene of this game...... That's enough to make people feel like it's worth the ticket price.
This is a perennial winning team...... There really are two brushes!
