Chapter 722: Gap (2)

After listening to Xu Luyang's translation, Pedro immediately smiled and said, "You still underestimate yourself a little too much, now you are standing in front of him, you must know that everyone is comparing the three of you together, and this comparison will eventually be put on a field, you always have to distinguish between high and low, and in my opinion, Messi has his own problems, and he also has his own advantages, but his personal strength is no longer as good as yours."

Ai Huan just smiled but didn't speak, he also knew that this day would come soon, in fact, it was only next week, and at this time his heart was already looking forward to that game.

Schalke's lineup also appeared on the screen immediately, and it is obvious that Magath has made a new arrangement today, even at home he has no intention of playing against the opponent at all, he wants to try to equalize the score with Barcelona, and the real decisive battle will be next week, when Ai Huan returns.

Schalke set up a 4-3-2-1 formation today, which is very different from usual. The goalkeeper is Zhang Chong, who has finally returned from injury, which is also the biggest test for the Chinese goalkeeper, and it is also a decision made under pressure for him to be able to play Magath.

At the back, Escudero, Hovidez, Metzeld and Crishitto are the best backline he can come up with. Midfielders Ilkay Gundogan, Maputi and Fuchs came on in quick succession, putting on a defensive posture in front of the backline, with the presence of a back three already making a gesture.

Mata and Joaquín appeared on both sides of the midfield on left and right, while Raul was placed on the front line alone, and the three Spaniards formed Schalke's attacking combination, fortunately, all three of them had broken through Barcelona's goal, so the three of them have also become Magath's biggest hope, he doesn't hope that he can beat the Cosmos team at a glance at these three people, but he can always make Barcelona dare not press the whole line and launch an onslaught without care.

Uribe looked at Schalke's formation, his brows furrowed tightly, and Ai Huan also felt very curious, so he leaned over and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

Uribe shook his head, "That's a joke, you don't always talk about it, I'm really not that arrogant, but today's Magath gave me a lot of inspiration, he dared to put on this formation in his home stadium, he was completely not afraid of criticism, it seems that he really doesn't care about others saying that he is relying on you." ”

"What is this called? Is it a shame to rely on me? Why can't you rely on good players? Isn't it your usual style to create tactics for a good player? Why is it like this now? Don't you really think that leading China to win the Asian Cup is equivalent to reaching the top? It's too simple to think. ”

Unexpectedly, this simple sentence made Uribe's eyes light up, and his expression was much more relaxed, but why it was like this Ai Xuan didn't know at all, and at this time the game had already begun.

However, it is very surprising that although Schalke made a defensive posture in the arrangement, they did not relax in the attack at all, and the two sides directly began to attack each other as soon as they started, which also shocked many people.

In fact, these two teams have not played each other at all in five years, and even if they played before, they had nothing to do with the current team, one was the universe team that dominated Europe in the past two years, and the other was the most popular upstart this year, and their fight could indeed attract attention, but no one expected that the scene would not even have a little temptation and directly opened the stance, which made many people cry out in surprise.

Just 140 seconds into the game, Iniesta combined with Messi's kick against the wall, but there was no power in front of goal and the ball went wide of the near post.

In the fourth minute, Raul burst into the left side of the penalty area, Pique slid accurately, and the ball bounced off Ibrahimovic's leg.

A minute later, Joaquín transferred a long pass on the left side, and the right side of the quickly inserted Fuchs penalty area was vigorously swept in front of the goal, and Barcelona immediately counterattacked, Messi broke through and dodged Metzelde, and fired a low left-footed shot from the left side of the penalty area but was blocked by Zhang Chong.

"It's so fast. Xu Luyang and Zhang Lindong said it almost at the same time, and then glanced at each other, and Barcelona is not only fast but also more powerful is their cooperation, it is like playing a video game, as if as long as the football is transmitted, there will always be someone to answer, facing this kind of team is really terrible.

Sure enough, under this super style of play, Schalke's defense was very difficult, in the seventh minute, Alves passed back on the right side of the penalty area, Fabregas did not stop the ball in the middle and volleyed directly through the defense line, Messi directly faced Zhang Chong on the right side, and shot low but missed the far post.

"It's not a good sign, Schalke's defence is very layered, but if they are dragged down like this, they will collapse very quickly. Pedro said as he reached out and touched his beard, he also saw the problem, and also remembered the situation when they met this team two years ago, when they were also beaten and had no way to do it, if it weren't for the existence of a ruthless person like Ai Huan, maybe Elche would have been directly disabled at that time.

Sure enough, the game only went to the tenth minute, Schalke made a huge mistake, Hovedes stopped the ball and hesitated, Messi directly stepped up to steal the ball successfully, and then broke into the left side of the penalty area, but he did not shoot but passed back to Xavi, Xavi passed the ball to Gundogan's leg and bounced to the left, Messi took the ball again but was tackled by Maputi who turned back to grab, and the Dutch referee Kuipers decisively awarded a penalty and showed a yellow card.

Next, Messi took the penalty, he pushed the lower left corner with his left foot, Zhang Chong still wanted to use his best psychological warfare to influence the opponent, but Messi didn't eat this set at all, his free throws were not affected at all, and flew directly into Schalke's goal.

This season, Messi set a record for the youngest to score 50 goals in the Champions League, and became the first person to score 25 goals in the knockout rounds of the Champions League, but these records always seem a bit weak, because looking at the terrifying Ai Fan, everyone knows that this record will soon be broken.

"It's Messi, it's really amazing. Uribe sighed, then turned back to Ai Huan and said, "What are you going to do with him when you go back?"

"Didn't you think about it, do you have any good suggestions?"

"Don't fight with him, just compare speed and height with him, Messi can't do anything about these two points, and the midfield must be tougher, only if you cut off their ground cooperation, you will have a chance. ”
