Chapter 43 Messi is here, Barcelona can't be bullied!
It actually gave Yan Feng such a feeling. made him a little puzzled, so why did the Barcelona team occupy the top spot?
Could it be that the Barcelona team is deliberately showing weakness?
With such thoughts, Yan Feng felt that he needed to be cautious and never give the Barcelona team any opportunity to take advantage of.
It is impossible to be too cautious in the face of a team with such a foundation as Barcelona. Even if at the moment, it seems that Granada has the upper hand at home. But Yan Feng has reason to believe that if he is not careful, he is likely to be hit by the Barcelona team.
In order to guard against any possible threat, Yan Feng resisted the desire to step forward to participate in the attack, and was determined to take root in the midfield and make his teammates have no worries. Leave the task and glory of scoring goals to your teammates.
Yan Feng is dedicated to sitting in the rear, which really allows his teammates to give full play to their offensive talents without worrying about the problem of defense.
Barcelona are certainly not a team lacking in counter-attacks, and they still play some beautiful attacks from time to time when Granada have a slight advantage. Helplessly, the defense led by Yan Feng made it difficult for them to perform.
Barcelona can fight back, but the strength of the fight back always feels a little weak in everyone's opinion. Messi is the target of Yan Feng and his teammates. And Suarez, another sharp knife of the Barcelona team, is relatively less valued. In such a situation, Suarez should have a lot of chances, but today he didn't look like he was at his best.
The two sides continued to attack and defend each other, and as time went on, Granada's confidence doubled. Barcelona looked a little inferior to Real Madrid's attacking prowess, putting pressure on Granada. In this way, the offense is even more inconsiderate.
In Yan Feng's opinion, the Barcelona team's offense is not as good as last season, and the defense has also dropped a lot. With the odds and the odds, Granada are more likely to beat Barcelona today than ever before.
"Brothers, attack me. We're behind us, let's attack and defeat them!" Yan Feng shouted to his teammates with confidence. More and more, he felt that the game was less difficult than he had imagined.
Yan Feng's high spirits made Modric and others more confident and more able to find the loopholes in the Barcelona team's defense.
As strong as Barcelona's, the leakage of the defence becomes more and more difficult to avoid after the control of the central midfield is weakened. Under the patience of the Granada team, by the 35th minute of the game, a hole in the Barcelona midfield was caught by Modric.
A kick as accurate as a missile's straight plug was appropriately delivered to the feet of Sandel, who was taking advantage of the running position to get a gap. Sandel took the ball straight into the box and, with Pique's interference, calmly fired low into the far corner.
“GOAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
Goalkeeper Schgent couldn't stop Sundel's tricky shot and could only watch in pain as the ball rolled into it.
"Yay!
"Hooray, in!"
"We're ahead! we're ahead!"
The Granada Stadium was instantly in a state of flux, and cheers resounded throughout the stadium.
1:0, Granada took the lead in breaking the deadlock at home. The goal came at the right time and it brought the morale of the whole team to a high point. All of them were cheering wildly and celebrating.
Compared with the surprise of the Granada team, the outside world does not seem to have too many surprises about this. In addition to praising the excellent performance of the Granada team, many media people have also begun to express that the Barcelona team has finally been exposed after Neymar leaves.
After taking the lead, Granada became more aggressive and they were excited to keep up the push and try to score again. With the momentum of the goal, Granada suppressed Barcelona after the restart.
After conceding the goal, Barcelona tried to launch a counterattack, but the attack was not too resolute, which made it feel that they had lost confidence psychologically.
This provoked the aggression of the Granada team even more, and they surrounded the Barcelona team with a more fierce attack. The Barcelona team has fallen into unprecedented passivity, both in terms of momentum and on the field.
Rao is so passive, but the Barcelona team is not a fish belly team after all, under the pressure of the Granada team, they appropriately shrink the formation and grit their teeth to insist. Under the stubborn shift of the Barcelona team, the momentum of the Granada team repeatedly returned in vain. Despite the fierce attack, they failed to score again until the end of the first half.
In the end, the first half ended with Granada leading by 1 goal.
Although there was only one goal in the first half, it was a perfect first half for Granada.
The first half of the game gave Granada enough confidence and momentum. At the start of the second half, they were still aggressively attacking Barcelona.
In the face of such a Granada team, after the adjustment of the midfield, the Barcelona team shrank in due course. The tactical contraction, while a bit of a sign of weakness, allowed them to deal with the seemingly ferocious attack of the Granada team more calmly.
Shrinking the formation, shrinking the space, and strengthening the defence of Luka Modric in a targeted manner did a great job in limiting Granada's attack.
If Modric's role is weakened, then the attacking intensity from other directions will be increased. Anthony Martial and Riyad Mahrez have been placed more heavily on their wings. They continued to unleash their offensive talent, but the opponent strengthened the defense, and the outflankers lacked a bit of luck, so they were helpless to take the Barcelona goal in a short time.
Over time, Barcelona gradually stabilized their position. They counter-attacked at every opportunity, and Suarez began to bounce back, constantly attacking the Granada team. It's just that Neymar is less restrained, and as soon as he saw him play, he was immediately taken care of by Yan Feng and others. Then Suarez's play can only play some diversion role. Still couldn't bring a goal to Barcelona.
Although Barcelona's performance is starting to stabilize, with both Messi and Suarez locked down, their midfield seems to lack the strength to support the front.
This makes more and more people feel that the Barcelona team is hopeless in this game. It seems that the situation is getting more and more favorable for the Granada team as time goes by.
As the clock wore and the stamina began to drop significantly, the Granada team had to slow down their attacks.
The offense had to be weakened due to physical reasons, but the Granada team's defense had Yan Feng there, so naturally it would not weaken much of the defensive strength. This left Barcelona wanting to fight back after the threat was reduced but still had few chances.
At this time, Messi, who had been silent for almost half the game, began to exert his strength. He often relied on his super individual ability to carry the attack of the Barcelona team. Unfortunately, without the effective support of his teammates, even if he can break through one layer and two layers of defense, it is difficult to break through more defenses.
Messi and Suarez both exerted their strength, and Yan Feng immediately commanded his teammates to strengthen the defense of these two. Feeling the power of Messi, Yan Feng began to experience the biggest pressure since this game.
Fortunately, Barcelona's midfield is not strong enough. Either it is too old to support, or the impact after follow-up is insufficient.
After defending with all his might for a while, after the Granada team withstood the impact initiated by Messi, Yan Feng began to feel that the game was stable.
Looking at the opportunity to take advantage of the Granada team's long-term offensive to slow down the offensive, after Messi worked hard but couldn't support it alone, people on and off the field were like Yan Feng, and felt that the Granada team's chances of winning began to become greater.
After Messi exploded for a while, he began to show an ugly look on his face after frequent futility. Yan Feng even saw Messi sigh deeply after an attack was encircled.
The Barcelona team's counterattack was weak, and the back began to become more and more weak, and Messi also gave up his efforts to fight back with his own strength.
Next, although Barcelona were not scored again by Granada, they did not see the possibility of a successful counterattack.
"Almost won. Just get through these last few minutes and we'll win. When the game went to stoppage time, Yan Feng also showed a smile that victory was in sight. Looking at Messi, who had become silent again, Yan Feng finally relaxed.
With just three minutes of stoppage time, Granada only needed that time to claim their first win over Barcelona. Just thinking about it makes me feel intense.
Looking at the lack of counter-attacking spirit on the opposite side, many people in the Granada team relaxed and began to stop chasing attacks.
The last three minutes are always the hardest. Every now and then, the Granada team turns their heads to look at the time of the game on the sideline screen. I always feel like a few minutes pass really slowly.
Even Yan Feng was no exception, when he thought of defeating the Barcelona team, he was in a surging mood, and he couldn't wait to start celebrating the next game.
Just as Yan Feng turned his head to look at the time, expecting to taste the fruits of victory, he suddenly heard an exclamation.
When Yan Feng heard this, he turned his head and looked, and immediately his whole body tensed, and his heart contracted even more violently.
"Copy, hurry, stop Messi, don't let him rush over!" Yan Feng turned his head and just saw Messi cut off the ball at the foot of the substitute Costa.
After slackening, Granada's defense was a little less tight at the back. Messi's break in front of the court immediately posed a great threat. After Yan Feng shouted, the defenders who came back to their senses immediately rushed towards Messi frantically.
This time, Messi rushed up with the ball with a decisive look. His indomitable momentum made Yan Feng's heart beat wildly, and an ominous premonition surged up from the bottom of his heart. Yan Feng suddenly sped up and rushed over there with all his might.
When Yan Feng rushed over there, Messi also borrowed his super personal ability to shake off the defenders who pounced, and continued to rush firmly in the direction of the penalty area.
Yan Feng's burst out was extremely fast, and he quickly approached Messi. But Messi's dribbling is very erratic, and the position used is very good, Yan Feng's approach was invisibly blocked by his teammates.
Yan Feng was blocked by his teammates and couldn't arrive at the first time. And Messi approached central defender Benkovic at this time.
Benkovic faced Messi, and the young man looked a little nervous at this time. He struggled to suppress his nervousness and didn't want to give Messi any chance. It's just that he is tall, but he was changed backwards by Messi twice in a row, but he showed a gap.
And Messi didn't give any chance to make up for it, and he got up and hit the goal as soon as the gap appeared. The fast, tricky and sticky ball went straight to the far corner. Goalkeeper Ochoa did his best to make a save, but in the end his finger was a centimeter away from the ball.
“GOAL!!!!!”
"Messi!!! Messi scored!"
The Barcelona side was boiling in an instant.
Yan Feng crossed his waist and was as silent as the fans in the entire stand. Looking at Messi, who was frantically surrounded by his teammates, he had mixed feelings. In the end, all the emotions turned into a sigh.
"Careless. I still underestimated Messi. Messi is here, Barcelona can't be bullied!"
1;1, the game ended up in a tie.
Granada missed their chance at home to overtake La Liga.
