Of course, as a victim, Van Gaal does not want to be a victim like this, he still needs to make a last ditch effort. 【Fengyun Reading Network. 】

Van Gaal is a top-class manager and he still has top players at his disposal, and being two goals behind in the first half is not enough to make him lose his fighting spirit.

'Now we're facing a manager who has come for revenge.

Van Gaal's deep voice echoed through the dressing room: "I know you've all heard the story of that guy...... Arriving alone in Catalonia and offering to join FC Barcelona, the theories he put forward at the time aroused the great interest of Mr. Cruyff, but he was kicked out because he did not know how to train at all. Then he went to Atletico Madrid, where he became the manager half a year later, stopping our two titles last season! This guy is here for revenge! He will not spare any hand in the face of us, as long as he has a little advantage, he will brag unscrupulously to stimulate our nerves and strengthen our humiliation! In a way, I can understand Dick, because a man should take the most violent revenge for the humiliation he has endured! But as a part of his revenge, I will never tolerate being retaliated against like this! Because we also have our own dignity! The object of his revenge is Barcelona, this is not a specific object, it is Barcelona made up of us people! To retaliate against Barcelona is to take revenge on us, and we haven't done anything to him before! What should we do when someone bullies us? Hold your head and let the other person beat each other hard, and then let the other person leave in an arrogant long laugh? ”

"Of course not!"

The Barcelona players roared at the same time, they are all seasoned players, they all have top standards and reputations, and some of the things that happened before proved that Dick is indeed such a merciless guy, he knocks you down, he will never say anything like "this time I was lucky", but will look at you with disdain, hold out a middle finger at you, and say "now you know how good I am, bastard!" ”

This kind of humiliation is not only for FC Barcelona, but also for every one of their players!

"***, no one can lose to this slut!" Barcelona's players were stirred up by the same idea, and their morale began to slowly turn around, and they were gearing up for a comeback in the second half – something they hadn't done before! Last season, they beat Chelsea at home and completed a shocking comeback!

While the atmosphere in the home dressing room is starting to become united, the atmosphere in the visitors' dressing room is much more relaxed.

"I think it would be hypocritical for me to say that you could have behaved better at this point."

Dick chuckled in the dressing room: "Keep it up, guys, even though I managed to make those fans use their voices against us in the first half, it was easy to anger the Barcelona players." Because they know that if they lose to me, they will suffer more humiliation, and as long as they don't want to be humiliated, they will try to beat us in the second half...... But I'm going to humiliate a team, can they get away with it? Yes, this is a personal grudge, but beating Barcelona is also good for the whole of Atletico Madrid! We're going to fight for the championship! Be sure to make it to next season's Champions Cup! That's our goal! Anyone who stands in the way of this goal will be kicked away by us without mercy! ”

"Ba, Se, Ro, Na, also, no, example, outside." Dick said word for word.

***************************************

'The second half was about to start and there were no substitutions on either side...... Could it be that Van Gaal is already desperate for the game? Hopefully we can see a little more positive performance......"

The Catalan TV commentator sighed and said that he would like to see changes in the team, but he feels that there will probably be no changes without substitutions......

But after five minutes, he started to get excited!

"Beautiful! Rivaldo's long-range shot! It's just a little bit off! ”

The stands erupted with the frantic shouts of the Barcelona fans, and just now, their number one star Rivaldo received a return pass from Kluivert, and the non-stop ball was a long-range shot of great quality, which grazed Molina's outstretched hand and flew off the crossbar......

Rivaldo took a deep look at Atletico's goal before turning and walking away.

I didn't enter this time, but I must enter next time!

Rivaldo has that confidence, he has more room to move and more goals after Figo's departure, and his scoring prowess has been on full display, with five goals in seven league games since the start of the season and six in five games in the Champions League! This scoring ability is enough to prove that Rivaldo is excellent!

Dick whistled off the field, and then pointed at Makelele, who nodded silently, it was a mistake on his part that gave Rivaldo a chance to score, and then, he must not make the same mistake again!

Rivaldo noticed Makelle defending next to him, but he didn't pay much attention to it, although Makelle's defense in the first half was quite good, but the main close defense was Baraja, there are not many players in the world who can defend Rivaldo, although the French defender performed very well, but Rivaldo did not feel that he would be defended by the opponent.

Soon, he'll feel what it's like to be being targeted by the world's No. 1 defensive midfielder for years to come.

Although Makelele belongs to the kind of interception type of midfielder, but his marking ability is not bad at all, his physical fitness, defensive awareness and running ability are excellent, this kind of back is not valued at the moment, that is because in recent years there are several top midfielders with good offense and defense to attract everyone's attention, they can defend, can attack, and often have strong leadership skills, such as Roy? Keane, like Redondo, like Vieira...... However, after these monsters gradually grew old, the role of Makelele as a back was gradually valued!

In the eighth minute of the second half, Pep Guardiola passed the ball to De la Pena, and the Galeries saw that Rivaldo had just one turn to get rid of Baraja's defense, and immediately sent a through ball.

However, this through ball was cut off by Makelle halfway through! He showed up in time for the pass, then easily stretched out his foot to intercept the ball in the middle of the game, and then lifted his foot to pass the ball to Belleron, who launched a through ball, Camorane received the ball on the west side and cut inside to shoot, which was saved by Arnault.

In the thirteenth minute of the second half, Sergi broke through on the side and planned to pass to Rivaldo, Rivaldo relied on his height advantage to get the ball under Makelele's close defense, just turned around, Makelele's foot had already arrived, Rivaldo's left foot quickly buckled, dodged Makelele's press, and was about to move forward with the ball, but Makelele had quickly withdrawn his foot and continued to entangle Rivaldo, forcing him to turn around - after such a delay, Atletico's defenders were already in place, and in the end the attack was only a barely managed shot on goal and did not threaten.

Van Gaal frowned, he mobilized the morale of the players, and most of the goal hopes were pinned on Rivaldo, but the defensive ability of the small French midfielder was much more than he expected, and this period of time with Baraja made Rivaldo also look very embarrassed - I have basically not seen Rivaldo so embarrassed this season!

Now a substitution is needed to help Rivaldo.

Van Gaal thought in his heart, and then changed two people in one go.

Overmars came on for De La Pena and Gerard came on for Petit.

Strengthen the breakthrough ability of the wings and strengthen the protection of Guardiola in the middle, Van Gaal's two substitutions are still quite targeted, but Dick also immediately replaced a person, he replaced Camoranesi with Kruse, so that the defensive pressure in the middle of Barcelona began to increase instantly!

Dick did not adopt a rigid tactic in the second half, that is because he knows that although Barcelona is not good as a whole, they still have a few superstars who can change the situation on the field in an instant, and if Atletico Madrid's overall advantages cannot be brought into play, then they need to use attacks to suppress them, expose the weaknesses in their backline more, and let their superstars in the front court not have many opportunities to play!

Barcelona has a natural weakness in the backline, the midfield is getting closer and closer to a piece of loose sand, except for a few top stars, there is nothing to do, in this case, the whole is carried out to the ground, with one goal by one to make their stars fall into irritability, into a strange circle of attacking only with individual ability, so as to make the team's advantage even greater!

Barcelona wants to use the attack to score goals, the hope of turning the situation around is broken, they attack a lot, but each time they can not form a continuous attack, Atletico Madrid will immediately after getting the ball through their own attack to take the initiative in their hands again, the most terrible thing is that in such a tug-of-war attack, Atletico Madrid's defensive success rate is higher than Barcelona, Barcelona can form far fewer shots than Atletico Madrid!

Under such a confrontation, Barcelona quickly conceded a third goal.

Molina struggled to save Alphonso's shot, then Atletico launched a counter-attack, Barcelona struggled to return to form a positional battle, Camoranesi picked the ball into the box from a 45-degree angle, and Jadel used his body to carry the defending Frank? De Boer, lift his foot to unload the ball, then suddenly turn and shoot before Cocu can come over to fill in the position!

The ball bounced on the turf, then bounced off Arnault's hand and into the Barcelona gate for the third time!

"The third ball! In the back and forth attack, Atletico still scored the third goal! They have basically taken victory into their own hands! Barcelona lost with nothing to say! They clearly didn't look like a whole team in the game, we only saw Kluivert running blindly up front, Rivaldo shooting, Pep Guardiola's passes rarely reaching the feet of his team-mates, and the back line being broken again and again...... Barcelona lost unjustly! They do have a big problem now, and this problem, there is no hope that it can be solved at all! Barcelona, which dominated Spanish football for the entire nineties, is on the verge of decline! ”

The words of the commentator of Spanish national television seem to have lifted the curtain and foreshadowed that Barcelona is about to begin to slide!
