Chapter 174: Against the King of the Europa League
The outside media is talking about Barcelona this season.
Many people say that as long as Barcelona is run-in this season, they will dominate La Liga and impact the Champions League at the same time.
After Cristiano Ronaldo's departure, Real Madrid's slightly weaker forward line will react to a strengthened version of Barcelona.
This is also a concern for many people.
After all, in La Liga, the national derby of Real Madrid vs Barcelona has attracted the attention of not only the region, but the whole world.
The major media outlets are raving about Barcelona.
Especially Yile, many people are saying that it is desperate to take Yile back, which is the most correct choice Bartomeu has made.
Now, thanks to the arrival of Yile, many people are amazed by the fighting power shown by Barcelona.
"Kicker" is even more unswervingly from the perspective of touting Yile.
"I can't believe how he did it, the competitive form that Yi shows every season is terrifying, it's like he's not going to have a low point, how does he stay in shape?"
"He's such a well-rounded player, and he's the scariest in La Liga, and after not being too physical, he shows a rhythm that scares everyone."
'To be able to win by a big margin in the second round of the league and score five goals is not at all like a team that has not been in the run.
"Le Catalunya" said quite proudly:
"This season, La Liga has made a lot of reinforcements for midfielders, such as Real Betis' Fekir, Atletico Madrid's Portuguese youngster Felix and Barcelona's Yi."
"Of course, I don't think the first two can be compared with Yi, they are still too far behind."
"Fekir was not an easy opponent in Ligue 1, and after coming to La Liga, they faced Barcelona in midfield again!"
'Felix is too young, he may be a genius, but at Atletico Madrid he doesn't have a lot of support, he doesn't have three Champions League players and he can't be the absolute heart of the team.
"Of course, even if he becomes the core, we feel that he can't be compared with Yi, and there is still a big gap between them."
As soon as this report appeared, Barcelona fans were very useful, but it invisibly attracted hatred to Yile.
For example, the newspaper Marca suddenly jumped out and accused:
"Barcelona's results are very vain, they have not been tested by the strong teams, if they come to the Bernabeu, Real Madrid will tell them what it means to fail!"
"We need to be formal, but I don't feel like a 23-year-old heart can lead a 32-year-old body!"
Marca is mocking Barcelona's ageing.
In this regard, the two sides began to tear up again.
The media is not surprised, after all, these two clubs are like this.
Barcelona fans are happy for the victory, they are full of hope this season.
Even the team's main goalkeeper, Ter Stegen, joked on Twitter: "God! I feel like I'm going to be laid off, why didn't anyone shoot?! ”
Barcelona fans couldn't help but laugh when they saw it.
Some fans went back to the replay and found that the front court was playing so fiercely, while Ter Stegen was leaning against the post and staring blankly ahead.
When the opponent hit back, the fans actually read a trace of excitement in Ter Stegen's eyes?
However, when Pique finished clearing, Ter Stegen looked at Pique's back with a resentful look.
No race experience!
The fans in Barcelona were having a blast.
It was the first time they had seen Ter Stegen in this state.
After all, for the first two seasons, Ter Stegen was a mainstay of Barcelona's defence.
High pick-up resistance, several times pulled Barcelona out of the ghost gate.
And since the arrival of Yile, the strong midfield has directly made Ter Stegen begin to doubt life.
Is this a team?
In the whole game, an average of 8 shots on goal, of which only 3 were in the range of the goal, and this kind of shot is often either not enough power or too far from the angle.
It's not interesting!
During this time, Barcelona fans were very happy, although it was only two rounds of the league, because Barcelona won both rounds, plus seven goals, in the position of La Liga leader.
In the scorer list, Messi led with five goals, and Yile also scored four goals in the assist list.
Barcelona dominates the rankings, which makes many fans feel satisfied and motivated.
It's just that they faced a fish belly team before, and then they started to play the main game.
In the third round of La Liga, they will play against Sevilla, the king of the Europa League.
Sevilla FC have consistently been outside the top three in La Liga, but there are some signs of competition.
They can also upset strong teams on occasion, and their style of play is varied, which makes it difficult for opponents to guess about this team.
Ernesto Valverde still played in a 4-2-3-1 formation.
He found that this formation fits well with Barcelona now.
On the one hand, Yile's offensive attributes are fully developed, and on the other hand, Yile can also have a good connection with Messi.
Moreover, once the situation is not right, Yile can also withdraw the organization and immediately complete the 4-3-3 change of formation.
Valverde gave Yile a high degree of freedom, and the whole Barcelona team also gave Yile a high degree of support, which made Yile hold the ball longer and more able to use his rhythm control.
But the most important thing is that Yile can make up for the problem of Barcelona 'not being able to run' with plenty of physical energy.
So, despite the fact that two rounds have passed, there is a saying among the Barcelona fan base that 'it is not surprising that he is in any position, because that is the position where he is most needed!' ’
In the third round, when Yile stood at Camp Nou again, he saw a large Tifo appear in the left stand.
A portrait of Yi Le is painted on a red and blue background, and below it is a short Spanish word that translates to 'The Heart of Barcelona'!
In just two games, Yile has completely conquered these discerning Barcelona fans.
Naturally, the issue of identity helped him a lot.
But Yile's performance and exaggerated and aggressive style of play also attracted a large number of fans for him.
One of the most common phrases I hear when watching an E-Le game is 'He's attacking, he's attacking!' Oh, God! How could he attack again! ’
Yes, attacking all the time, this has almost become Yile's style.
And under the leadership of Yile, Barcelona's football has also begun to become very aggressive, and they are always passing the ball forward.
As the match was about to start, Yi Le twisted his neck and jumped lightly, showing a positive state of preparation.
And this scene is also very happy for Barcelona fans.
In fact, when Yile stood at Camp Nou, they were sure that he was the future of Camp Nou!
