Chapter 254: Controversial Judgment
Messi was on a rampage in the box, his legs moving very quickly, and the distance between the ball and the ball was very short when he was on the ball, which made it difficult to break the ball from his feet unless it was a foul.
The Espanyol players had no choice but to block Messi's goal.
But seeing Messi getting closer and closer to the goal, the Spaniard players were anxious.
Bernardo gritted his teeth, and he decided to step forward and make a steal.
But he did touch the ball with his outstretched foot, but at the same time tripped Messi, and apparently failed to keep up with the frequency of Messi's trips.
Messi fell in the penalty area, which made the Espanyol fans roar loudly:
"Fake !!"
Messi sat on the ground and spread his hands, and players on both sides had already begun to rush over.
Both managers also ran towards the fourth official at the same time, both of them pressing.
At this point, the focus of the game fell on the referee, and the referee from Greece was considering.
'It's really hard, Bernardo did trip Messi, but he also touched the ball first, and it depends on how the referee decides.'
In full view, the referee crossed his hands and made an invalid gesture.
It was a reasonable tackle from Espanyol player Bernardo.
Rumble!!!!!
Barcelona fans are going to blow up.
Is this the home whistle?
Espanyol fans, on the other hand, were relieved that if a penalty was awarded at this point in time, they would be even more passive.
Barcelona were unhappy with the verdict, with the players arguing around the referee, with Suarez being particularly agitated, but he also paid the price for a yellow card.
But this yellow card made the referee's scalp tingle, and if his eyes could kill, the Greek referee felt like a dead man.
Thousands of Barcelona fans glared at him, clearly unhappy with the verdict.
But even so, the verdict has been handed down and the game has to go on.
"Don't get excited, we have the next wave of attacks."
Messi stopped Suarez, who was particularly excited.
He was very grateful for Suarez's move, but it was the game and Suarez had already been booked.
Suarez also calmed down at this time, and he said hatefully: "I will avenge you." โ
.......
"Shit! This Greek wants to kill this game! โ
Valverde yelled on the sidelines, shouting so loudly that everyone around him could hear it clearly.
In this regard, the fourth official did not hear it, he understood that this was meant to himself, and this guy had not given up putting pressure on the referee team.
But the fourth official was also helpless at this time, and he miscalculated the intensity of this derby.
How long has it been since there was a controversial ball, and how was it judged after that?
Let's hope the referee can withstand the pressure.
The game restarted with the Spaniard taking a goal kick.
Goalkeeper Lopes handed the ball to Didak on the wing, who passed straight forward.
Mark. After receiving the ball, Rocca was not in a hurry to pass the ball, he looked up to observe.
But before he could observe it for long, the Barcelona frontcourt players began to press high.
Mark. Roca had to make a pass and the ball came to Davy in the middle. Lรณpez stopped the ball steadily.
David. Lopes wanted to pass the ball to Wu Lei and let Wu Lei counterattack from the side.
But as soon as he looked up, he saw that Yi Le was already in the way between the two, which made David feel helpless.
This Chinese is too alert.
After a long thought, David could only pass the ball laterally and make a diversion, trying to shift Barcelona's defense to the right.
But his hopes were quickly dashed, with Barcelona pulling in manpower from the middle rather than from the back, leaving David somewhat helpless.
Now he has a feeling that Barcelona's midfield is everywhere.
Whether it's offensive or defensive, they can always be seen.
And it is also based on this aspect that Barcelona is playing more and more smoothly.
The Spaniards have been unable to find an opportunity to attack, and in the face of Barcelona's pressing, conceding a goal is inevitable.
Gomez's overly aggressive aggressiveness led him straight into the encirclement of Barcelona.
Yi Le decisively hooked the ball with his feet, and although he was not very good at tackles, he was still able to do it to this extent.
After the steal, Gomez wanted to counter-attack, but Yile didn't give him a chance at all and directly transferred the ball to the left half.
De Jong chested the ball, and the moment the ball hit the ground, he gently pushed the ball to Griezmann.
Antoine Griezmann had the ball with his back and the Espanyol player had rushed up behind him.
In this regard, Griezmann seemed to have expected it, knocked back a ball, Yile plugged in and took the ball, and with a gentle rub, the ball was transferred to the right side again.
At this time, the Spaniards' defense was still concentrated on the left side, and Yi Le Leng did not transfer like this, which directly confused the Spaniards.
"Nice transfer! Two simple kicks pulled the Spaniard's defence straight out of space. Komans exclaimed: "That's Yi's advantage in terms of vision, he always helps the team create space to score. โ
I have to say that Barcelona's two-foot pass was wonderful.
Both Griezmann's return and Yile's transfer are very eye-catching.
But what was even more surprising was Barcelona's ability to change the tempo.
And in this regard, the Spaniards are obviously a little unable to keep up, which is why there is such a big hole.
The attack started again from Messi's point.
Despite Barcelona's emphasis on attacking on both flanks, Messi's path remains the focus, as Griezmann needs someone to cover him.
Messi's advance was still sharp, and Suarez waited early in the opposition backline.
Yile and Griezmann are complicated and pulled.
Everyone performed their duties and cooperated tacitly, and the entire Espanyol back line was pulled to pieces.
"Messi went into the penalty area again, Bernardo followed Messi closely, he was hesitating, obviously the last foul made him a little jealous."
Bernardo didn't dare to take his kick lightly, and the last foul narrowly escaped, but with so much pressure from Barcelona, he didn't think the referee would make such a decision.
Given the principle of fairness, the referee will give Barcelona something feedback.
And now, he felt that the referee was already staring at him.
As long as he makes some small moves, or tackles Messi down, the whistle will definitely sound in time.
In this case, Bernardo can only run after Messi and try to block the angle of his shot.
But Messi is not good at stubble, he sensed Bernardo's jealousy, and immediately pushed forward more arrogantly.
It's about to pull out of the gap in front of him, Bernard can't be in a hurry, and now, even if he backs the card, he can prevent Messi.
But just as he stretched out his foot, Messi seemed to have expected it and gently smashed the ball.
The ball slid past Bernardo's side, and Messi also took advantage of the situation.
"Messi is over!!"
At this time, Messi is in front of the goal.
Even with a goalkeeper, he was sure to score that goal.
Messi's decisive arch of his feet pushed the ball, and the angle of the ball was extremely good, almost passing through the goalkeeper's supporting feet, which made the goalkeeper have no choice but to watch the ball roll into the goal.
