Messi is receiving a therapeutic massage from Barcelona's physiotherapist Vlado. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 Info After the day's training, he felt a little stiff and he didn't want to let that affect his chances of playing in the game, so even though the team doctor didn't say anything, he insisted on the massage to relax.

Barcelona coach Rijkaard announced that Messi's name is in the eighteen-man squad, and the young man who is about to turn 18 is very excited, and he is certainly eager to play in such an important game.

"You're just a little nervous and your muscles are tired and stiff. Physiotherapist Vlado said.

"I'm not nervous. Messi, who was lying on the bed and enjoying the services of a masseuse, argued that in the eyes of this shy young man, nervousness before the game was a loss of face and a coward.

"Haha, not nervous, not nervous. Vlado said with a smile, "Little Leao is a big star who wants to score goals in the game." ”

Since the young Messi joined Barcelona, he has been very optimistic, and the staff of the Barcelona club also like this shy young man, and it is not too much to describe Messi's situation in Barcelona with thousands of favors.

Messi smiled a little embarrassedly, then closed his eyes and enjoyed the massage, but there was some crankiness in his mind, the sudden rise of Sporting Gijón this season shocked everyone, and Messi was even more so, he couldn't imagine that the Chinese coach who once led Real Madrid's under-seventeen junior A team can now lead Sporting Gijón to such incredible results.

Messi can't forget the game with Real Madrid's under-17 junior A team, and can't forget the Real Madrid coach Li Ang, that game lost to Real Madrid, which was the first victory Barcelona suffered in the youth competition that season.

Unexpectedly, the coach of the Real Madrid youth team, in less than two years, actually coached the first team of La Liga, and led the team to become a big dark horse that shocked the entire Spanish football league, and now he is competing with Barcelona for the league championship!

Messi really thought it was incredible.

He admired Li Ang a little, that person was really powerful.

However, no matter how good you are, the championship will still be Barcelona in the end! And if you have the opportunity to play, you must work hard to score goals and contribute to the team's victory - Messi thought so, in fact, he still has a careful thought, he wants to take revenge, revenge for the loss to Leon's Real Madrid under-17 junior A team.

This young Argentine is holding his breath for revenge.

Just when Messi was still thinking nonsense, the physiotherapy massage was over.

The physiotherapist Vlado gently patted him on the shoulder and woke up the little guy who was in a daze: "Leo!

Messi nodded vigorously.

***********

Barcelona's assistant coach Ten Carter noticed that Rijkaard was a little distracted, and couldn't help but be a little worried, could it be that Rijkaard didn't have any confidence and confidence in the game? That would be bad, so he couldn't help but ask, "Frank, tomorrow's game ......"

"Do you want to ask how sure I am of winning?" Rijkaard said with a smile. "To be honest, I don't know. ”

This answer surprised Mr. Assistant Coach a little, and he did not expect Rijkaard to give a less optimistic answer with such certainty.

"Frank, this ......," Tencart said.

"Don't worry!" Rijkaard knew what his assistant was worried about, "I don't know how sure we are of winning, but we have to give it our all in this game! ”

"Are you worried about anything?" asked Tencart.

'The pressure is on our side for this game. "We have to win this game, and Leon has a lot of leeway and a draw is something they can live with, so they have a lot of room for a strategic switch. ”

"Are you worried that they'll be more conservative?" asked Tencart.

"Yes. Rijkaard nodded, this is his biggest concern, if Sporting Gijón puts on a defensive tactic, it will be difficult for Barcelona to win, it will be difficult to break down the dense defense.

"I don't think so. Tenkat thought about it, but raised an objection.

***********

"Oh? "Rijkaard is interested.

"I don't think Sporting Gijón will be conservative in this game!

"Why do you say that?" asked Rijkaard.

"Because of Leon this person. Tengkat touched his nose, "I have studied this man carefully, although this person is sometimes a little conservative, but sometimes he is very aggressive, he has a lot of gamble! This game, once Sporting Gijón can win us, they will be more than five points ahead of us in the standings, which is a temptation for Leon, I think they will choose more proactive tactics." ”

Rijkaard touched his chin and thought.

"There's a reason why I say that. Ten Carter was happy to see that what he said caught Rijkaard's attention, and continued, "Also, I still think that Leon and Sporting Gijón want to win the championship, it's just their slogan, or they do have the desire to win the championship, but maybe not so strongly, they should be clear about the gap between them and Barcelona!" Therefore, this will make it easier for Sporting Gijón, this game, even if they lose, even if they only finish second in the league, it is a great achievement for them, so in this game, they are relaxed, but they may play actively. ”

Tengkat talked eloquently, as he himself said, he has been studying Leon all this time, studying Leon's psychology, studying Leon's style and tactics, and has figured out a set of his own experience, and now he has the opportunity to give advice to Rijkaard, he is very happy.

When Rijkaard heard what he said, he was stunned for a moment, and then said: "What you said does have some truth, which inspires me, and I have to think about it." ”

At the same time, Rijkaard breathed a sigh of relief that as long as Sporting Gijón were not so conservative, Barcelona's hopes of winning the game were greatly enhanced, "Thank you, Genk. He thanked his assistant. Tengkaert's analysis sounded plausible, and Rijkaard thought it would be nice that maybe things were really as his assistant had guessed

"I'm happiest to be able to help you. Tengkat said happily.

***********

On Sporting Gijón's side, Leon is also in a meeting with his coaching staff.

'Our scouts got the video of Barcelona's training and they were practicing attacking tactics and of course it was no surprise that they had to win the game and they had to attack. Leon's words caused everyone to laugh good-naturedly, and it was clear that it was something to be proud of and proud of to be able to pull Barcelona off the horse and force Barcelona to fight against the odds.

Leon suddenly turned his head to look at Banderas, "Pablo, what do you say we are going to do in this game?"

Pablo thought for a moment and said, "It's safest to defend and counterattack, but I guess maybe you want to fight against Barcelona?"

There are two sets of tactics practiced by Sporting Gijón in the past few days, one is very aggressive, and the other is somewhat conservative, which shows that Li Ang and the coaching staff have been preparing for both. I haven't made up my mind.

"Opposite?" Leon didn't answer, but Scott frowned, "It's a little crazy." ”

"We really need to show our attacking quality in this game. Leon said.

Scott frowned, and was about to open his mouth to refute, he is a more conservative character, this game is acceptable even if it is a draw, and there is no need to risk it under the premise of maintaining a draw.

***********

Leon waved his hand and signaled Scottry not to be in a hurry, "Listen to me, this game, I will divide it into two phases, the first stage, I call it the stalemate stage! The so-called stalemate stage means that we have to do a good job of defense, consume Barcelona's offensive energy, and try our best to defend the goal! Consume their patience." Of course, you still have to fight back when you have the chance, but defense is the first priority!"

Both Banderas and Scottery nodded, this was the safest tactic.

"What about the second phase?" Banderas asked.

"In the second stage, I call it a thunder strike!" Leon said with a little excitement, "Whether our previous defensive counterattack was successful or not, when the game reached a certain level, I thought the time was right, press out, as Pablo said before, and attack against Barcelona!"

"According to the inertia of human thinking, we have kept most of the game, and we are getting closer and closer to a draw, and the Barcelona people must have thought that we would be content with a draw, so our sudden aggression is very likely to catch the opponent off guard. Leon said.

"Of course, you have to defend well, and if you concede the ball early, then it doesn't make much sense. Leon added.

Banderas and Scottry thought about it for a while, and they both expressed their support for Leon's two-stage tactical concept, of course, as assistants, their main task was to support Leon's work and make up for the gaps, and it was Leon who really made the idea.

***********

"I suddenly had a gut feeling. Banderas finally said suddenly, "Maybe the Barcelona people will think that we will be more aggressive, that we will fight them at the beginning. ”

"Why do you think that?" asked Leon in surprise.

"Because it's more in line with your personality. Banderas said.

"Is my gambling so strong?" Leon touched his nose, and at the same time felt a little weak, Banderas may not know that Leang was really going to attack Barcelona at the beginning of the game with Barcelona, and he wanted to fight with Barcelona vigorously, but Leon thought for a long time, and finally gave up the idea that it seemed to be vigorous but had a big hidden danger, and it was better to be safe and safe, and to start the counterattack steadily! Barcelona is more anxious than Sporting Gijón in this game, in this case, Sporting Gijón can sit firmly on the Diaoyutai, do a good job of defense, and wait for the opportunity to counterattack, there is no need to gamble and take risks.

At this stage of the league, the two teams are so close in points that every game, every detail can affect the result of the league, so it is important to be safe and not make mistakes.

Now is the time to compete for internal strength, although Barcelona's strength is much stronger than Sporting Gijón, but the more this time, the more Sporting Gijón can not panic, can not be opportunistic, everything is based on steady and steady.

Li Ang didn't expect that his 'epiphany' wanted An An to be a beautiful man who was steadily advancing towards the championship, but he dug a hole for Barcelona by mistake.

***********

April 17, 2005, Gijón, Estadio Elmolinon.

The entire stadium was packed.

Players from both sides enter, stand in line, shake hands with each other, and guess sides.

Guessing the side, Sporting Gijón captain Fernando Hierro won against Barcelona captain Karls Puyol, Sporting Gijón won the right to pick the edge, and Barcelona kicked off first.

Leon nodded on the sidelines, Barcelona kicked off first, and Sporting Gijón responded to all changes with the same and defended well.

In the away team's coach's box not far away, Rijkaard is frowning, and it can even be said that he is quite angry.

He was holding the starting list of Sporting Gijon in his hand, looking at the names, looking at the players in the stadium, Rijkaard was extremely depressed, saying that Sporting Gijón would fight against Barcelona?

Now Rijkaard sees a different script than the designed, even very different.

But he forgot that Sporting Gijón would play actively, and even play against Barcelona, was completely influenced by his assistant coach Ten Carter's 'very reasonable' analysis, and it had nothing to do with Leon.

Rijkaard is feeling very bad now, judging from Sporting Gijon's starting list, Leon has made up his mind to be conservative, and Barcelona's starting list is completely arranged by Rijkaard according to the speculation that Sporting Gijon may play aggressively, and now he misjudged and lost the first step, which feels terrible.

The fighting style of the head coaches of both sides starts from their own starting list arrangement and guessing the other party's starting list.

PS: The weak ask for support.
