Until the start of the game, Guardiola's face did not look any better.

From the beginning of the game, Manchester City, which took the lead in kick-off, launched a fierce attack at the Olympic Stadium in Rome!

'From the very beginning of the game, City showed their attitude with their attack! Manchester City, who participated in the Champions League final for the first time, attacked mercilessly from the beginning of the game, as if they wanted to beat Barcelona in one go...... Was this a tactic arranged by Dick? Or is it because of his self-confidence, which his all-win record against Barcelona has allowed him to maintain? ”

Dick stood on the sidelines, expressionlessly watching the Manchester City players on the field launch a fierce attack - he actually rarely said anything about Barcelona's winning record, but at this time, he chose to use offensive tactics to suppress the opponent at the beginning, which also has the meaning, from the beginning, to overwhelm the opponent in momentum, which is also a good choice.

The current Barcelona is definitely not as strong as the Barcelona team in history, at least they are not the Champions Cup champions three years ago, and now they also lack the experience of winning the Champions Cup, Alves was intercepted by Dick halfway, and their fullbacks have certain flaws in the assist, and more importantly, after Dick coached the team, Barcelona almost knelt down once when he touched Dick, no matter what kind of team Dick led, this can also put huge pressure on Barcelona!

And now this kind of unbridled attack from the beginning has also aggravated the impact of this pressure.

"Ribery breaks through with the ball! Pretty! He rushed past Puyol...... Foul! Is it a yellow card? No, there was no yellow card, the referee warned Puyol a few words, maybe because such a game is too important, so the referee did not show a yellow card easily......"

Dick snorted, it is not uncommon for Platini to like Barcelona football, and it is actually normal for such a move to get a yellow card...... However, he is not as easy a bully as Chelsea, and if the referee dares to play too much in the final, then don't blame yourself for tearing your face.

Franck Franck Ribery created a free-kick 30 metres from goal, and he stood in front of it himself – there weren't many players in City's starting line-up who were good at free-kicks, but Ribery's footwork and long-range shooting ability made it a good choice for him to take a free-kick from such a distance.

After the acceleration run, Ribery kicked a rather erratic shot, Valdés pounced to the right, the ball got out of his hands, and Di Natale in the box followed up in the box and fell to the ground in front of Puyol!

Just as the Manchester City fans were about to cheer, Pique, who was guarding in front of the goal, flew over and used his body to block the ball off the line and take a corner kick.

"It's dangerous! If Pique's timely clearance hadn't been for Pique's timely clearance, then Manchester City would have scored! Manchester City's attack from the start was quite fierce, if it weren't for the excellent performance of Barcelona's backline......"

Barcelona fans began to wipe their sweat, Manchester City's offensive momentum at the beginning, it is indeed a little scary, Dick this guy, has always been the devil and shadow in their hearts, although he left La Liga, but every time he meets Barcelona in the European arena, he can always put enough pressure on Barcelona......

City's centre-back and midfielder's Yaya Toure both burst into the box, with Franck Ribery's corner being cleared by Puyol, and Vidal intercepting the ball from outside the box before firing a powerful shot that grazed the far post.

Manchester City's attack, this is the end.

However, to the disappointment of Barcelona fans, the attack was over, but Barcelona's attack was not able to play quickly, but was viciously forced and intercepted by Manchester City in the midfield, so that Barcelona's pass was completely unable to play the usual smooth effect!

"Hell, why is this happening!" Guardiola couldn't help but curse in his heart - this is also incredible, you must know that Barcelona's attack has always been known for its smooth flow, especially this season, back and forth, high pressing and large-scale transfer to tear open gaps, is the biggest factor for Barcelona to go all the way, and as a result, Manchester City forced a few times to mess up - this in the eyes of Guardiola, quite incredible.

In fact, this proves one thing - that is, Barcelona does have a sense of fear of Dick, and when Manchester City showed this momentum from the beginning, their momentum was completely suppressed by Manchester City!

Under the almost frantic pressing of Manchester City, Barcelona's midfield pass was wrong, and Busquets was immediately sandwiched by Yaya Toure and Vidal after taking the ball.

After the break, Torres did not stick to the ball, but quickly sent a sharp through stopper!

Barcelona's high pressing, in their three lines are very close, almost will not give the opponent much room to move at the same time, but also let their backcourt appear more gaps, if the opponent does not stick to the ball, timely straight plug, plus a fast player timely forward insertion, in an instant can form a single knife!

So this is the biggest reason why Valdés has become Barcelona's main goalkeeper, maybe he is not the best goalkeeper, but his large control range, strong mobility and timely attack characteristics make him the most suitable goalkeeper for Barcelona's tactics!

Torres's through stopper, at the same time as he broke the ball, Ribery had already swam to a place almost level with the opponent's backline, and after Torres sent a straight stopper, Ribery had already quickly plugged in the diagonal line, a beautiful through pass diagonally coordinated, Ribery received Torres's pass, forming a single knife!

Countless Manchester City fans stood up! And countless Barcelona fans exclaimed!

Valdés decisively chose to attack, and the timing of his attack was still very good, but after Ribery received the pass before him, it all turned into a tragedy!

With a quick ride, Ribery rushed past Valdés with lightning speed, then accelerated past Valdés, and raised his foot to push the ball into the empty net in the eyes of all Barcelona fans in despair!

"The ball is in! Just five minutes into the game, City immediately took the lead after a fierce attack! It was so surprising that no one could have imagined that it would take only five minutes for Manchester City to score! Dick is really Barcelona's nemesis! The start of this game is not like the Champions League final we imagined, and if Barcelona collapses, then it will probably be the most boring Champions League final......

Many commentators are complaining about Barcelona's performance, thinking that they are completely too bad, in such an important game as the Champions Cup final, they were suppressed at the beginning of the game, and quickly conceded a goal, which is really unbearable - "Instead of this, it is better to let Chelsea enter the final, they can at least fight Manchester City to the end!" A reporter complained.

Ribery is running on the field with open arms, although he has participated in the World Cup final, but the Champions Cup final is still very exciting for Ribery, and now it is the first time for Manchester City, the scar on Ribery's face seems to be shining with excitement.

"Well done!" Dick waved his fist at the court, this goal was expected by him, such a high-pressure pressing, the gap behind him will naturally be very large, and Dick's offensive tactics at this time are a bit like Mourinho's offensive tactics back then, the center retreats, and the wings break through to the middle, of course, there is a big difference in details, but the basic idea has not changed much.

This goal is a concentration of such ideas, the side diagonal insertion, the center forward direct pass, instantly tore apart Barcelona's defense!

It's just that Dick knows that one goal is nothing, and more goals are needed in the future, and Barcelona is now being pressed like this by Manchester City, not only because of strength and tactics, but also because of mentality......

Guardiola also sees this.

So Pep Guardiola, who usually seems to be quiet, roared at the field when the Manchester City players were celebrating wildly, and then waved his fist twice on the field, and at the same time pulled the three strikers in the front court, so that they paid attention to strengthening the attack - these three strikers are relatively unafraid of Dick, Eto'o scored in the Champions Cup final three years ago, Messi was not the main force at that time, and Henry did not come to Barcelona at that time to face Dick, They don't have much psychological pressure.

The roar and roar had a great effect, and of course, the most important thing is that if they continue like this, they will be relegated to the runner-up, and for the Barcelona players, they are also very eager to win this Champions Cup!

Eto'o was a little more positive, although he had established himself in Barcelona, but the lack of a Champions League title also made him seem unconvincing, and Thierry Henry was equally hungry for this title, and he left Arsenal to join Barcelona, not expecting a Champions Cup title? In his honor, there is a lack of such a champion......

With that in mind, Barcelona launched a frantic comeback after the restart – and their luck seemed to have been good, as they equalised just one minute later......

After Eto'o received a pass from Iniesta, he broke through Kompany's defense beautifully, he used speed and technique to dunk Kompany, in fact, there were not too many holes in Manchester City's defense at that time, but Eto'o was very decisive and shot directly from a small angle, the ball hit Hart who was a little out of position, and then bounced into the near corner of the goal!

“…… The ball is in! It's unbelievable that Barcelona equalized in just one minute! There was something wrong with the goal, and City had no problem in position, but Eto'o used his personal ability to break through and equalize! In the defense of Messi and Henry, Manchester City did quite well, but Eto'o's unexpected personal breakthrough caught Manchester City off guard! Now that the two sides have entered the stalemate stage again, the next game may be more intense! ”

Barcelona's goal made the commentators begin to change their words, Dick shook his head slightly, this lost goal...... It's a bit of luck, but if you keep running and defending, you're sure to win the game!
