1078 penalties!

On the evening of February 26, at the Camp Nou in Barcelona.

In the second leg of the Copa del Rey semi-finals, Real Madrid challenged Barcelona away.

This highlight match attracted 95,000 Barcelona fans to watch the game, and the atmosphere in the stadium was extremely hot.

Barcelona, who was playing at home, did not intend to stay, but as Yang Yang expected, the game began to press Real Madrid with all its might, and only 34 seconds after the opening, Neymar dribbled diagonally on the left side of the penalty area, and suddenly shot angrily.

Although the ball was deflected wide and did not threaten Real Madrid's goal, the sudden long-range shot still put the pressure on the Real Madrid players and ignited the atmosphere at the Camp Nou.

That's 95,000 fans, and the noise they make is enough to swallow everything.

A minute later, Barcelona readjusted their attacking line, Sanchez won the ball on the right side, faced Azpilicueta one-on-one on the right outside the box, continued to feint and change speed, used his speed to force a hole from Azpilicueta, and kicked up to the middle.

Messi followed up quickly and, with the interference of Vermaelen, a hook shot into the far corner slid slightly past the goal.

Barcelona's attack was fierce, and it was clear that as Yang Yang expected yesterday, he hoped to finish Real Madrid from the start.

In the fourth minute, Barcelona adjusted the offensive line back to the left, Neymar attacked with the ball, but was tripped by Ramos, who changed to right wing-back, and gave Barcelona a free kick opportunity on the left side of the box.

Xavi took the free-kick and Puyol got it close to the penalty spot, but it was too far away to go high.

Two minutes later, left-back Jordi Alba stepped in at high speed and crossed from the left to the front post, where Andres Iniesta volleyed but the angle was too straight and Diego López flew to save and failed to threaten.

In the tenth minute, after Iniesta advanced with the ball in the middle, he suddenly sent a through pass, Neymar received the ball on the left side of the penalty area, but Ramos took the first step to block and block Neymar's shot, and then cleared the ball and sent the ball to the front.

Neymar fell in the Real Madrid penalty area, trying to take the opportunity to earn a penalty, and the Barcelona players rushed to the referee as soon as possible after clearing the ball, pressuring the referee, thinking that it should be a penalty.

Referee Marenko was besieged by Barcelona players, but still refused to award a penalty.

The Real Madrid players were also a little dissatisfied with this, and Ramos even protested to several Barcelona players who were pressuring the referee, and with his fiery temper, he ignited the anger of both sides on the spot.

Fortunately, at the critical moment, Yang Yang saw that the situation was not right, and immediately rushed in and pulled Ramos away.

"Hey, hey, don't do this, don't do this, everyone knows it wasn't a penalty, OK?" Yang Yang shouted with great certainty, and at the same time turned around, pushed Ramos away, and then pulled him back.

'It's their home stadium and they want to you off and don't forget, we've been getting red cards lately.'

Yang Yang patted Ramos's face vigorously with both hands, signaling him to be more sober.

Ramos was blocked by Yang Yang, and after taking a few hits, he also came to his senses and nodded incessantly, "I know." ”

"Have you calmed down?" Yang Yang asked.

Ramos nodded heavily, "No problem." ”

"If you get punished again tonight, we're going to die!" Yang Yang solemnly reminded.

Ramos raised his head and took a deep breath, obviously realizing that he was a little too anxious just now, but fortunately Yang Yang reminded him, and when he looked directly at Yang Yang, he nodded slightly, "Thank you." ”

"Pay attention, this kid is a trouble, it's not easy to guard, don't make too many small moves, one may get a card if you're not careful, or even a penalty."

Ramos understands that Neymar's move just now is indeed to mix up a penalty.

Of course, if you change anyone, you will definitely fall to the ground in that situation.

…………

The game restarted, Barcelona was still in control of the situation on the field, still pressuring and attacking.

In this game, Real Madrid lined up in a four-three-three formation, with Cesar Azpilicueta, Vermaelen, Raphael Varane and Sergio Ramos at the back, Xavi Alonso, Mascherano and Luka Modric in the midfield, and Hazard, Yang Yang and Robben in the front three.

Among the three midfielders, Xavi Alonso and Modric are both technical midfielders with both offense and defense, and Mascherano grabbed the first time to counter-attack, and also has a very good ability to take the ball and play the ball, which is considered the world's top midfielder.

Such a configuration makes it difficult for Barcelona to break through Real Madrid's defense, and as soon as the ball enters the 30-meter area of Real Madrid, the back three immediately cooperate with the back line, cutting the trident led by Messi, so that they cannot form a tandem and echo.

This style of play comes from AC Milan, but it works well for Barcelona.

Alexis Sanchez and Neymar were separated on the wings, Xavi and Iniesta had to go up front to support Messi, Busquets and the back line in central midfield also had to press up, plus Alves and Alba on both wings began to actively attack.

At the very least, in Barcelona's opening attacking tactics, the insertion of two fullbacks is indispensable.

But this also leaves a big hidden danger.

In the two-goal away defeat to AC Milan, it was completely exposed, that is, the opponent's counterattack!

Real Madrid never had a chance to play up front from the start, but they were always patient and waiting for their time.

Until the thirteenth minute, Barcelona played the left side of the front field again to find Neymar, after Ramos broke the ball, Modric ran into the defense just after taking the ball out of the 30-meter area of his side, Robben retreated to respond, but Barcelona's on-the-spot counter-robbery was very active, and Robben could not find the way forward, so he could only pass back to Modric.

After the Croatian midfielder stopped the ball and got rid of the entanglement, a long pass sent the ball directly to the front.

……

When the ball was in the back, Yang Yang retreated to the center circle, but he kept running, looking for opportunities to not let the Barcelona defenders easily limit him.

When Robben retreated to answer, Yang Yang naturally ran to the right side, and when he saw Robben pass back and Modric stopped the ball to get rid of it, he started as soon as possible and rushed forward as fast as possible.

He knew that Modric would be able to see him and pass the ball.

Modric really lived up to Yang Yang's sprint, passed directly to Barcelona's 30-meter area, and rolled towards the big penalty area.

Yang Yang's speed was very fast, but Pique also defended all the way and followed Yang Yang closely.

At the edge of the penalty area, Yang Yang took a step ahead of Pique and stopped the ball.

An emergency stop, Yang Yang paused, he wanted to cut horizontally and get rid of Pique, but the Barcelona central defender is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and he is also extremely familiar with Yang Yang, so he didn't give him a chance at all, so he just stopped.

And behind him, Puyol has also chased back to the top area of the arc in the middle of the front of the penalty area for the first time, which made Yang Yang judge in an instant that if he cuts inside, the opportunity is not very big, but it is easy to fall into the bag.

So, Yang Yang buckled with his left foot, and after holding the ball, he first made a gesture to rush to the bottom line, trying to deceive Pique, but suddenly dunked it back, which made Pique have to respond continuously.

But after this series of feints, Yang Yang suddenly stabbed the ball into the penalty area, and the whole person suddenly picked up speed, rushed up at the fastest speed, and directly entered the Barcelona penalty area.

Pique was shocked, and the whole person followed for the first time, but he lost the opportunity and was one step behind Yang Yang, it was too late, and it was impossible for him to catch up with Yang Yang.

After losing the defense against Yang Yang, Pique has no choice at all, the only thing he can stop Yang Yang is to fall to the ground and put the tackle, but this is the penalty area, and the slightest mistake is a penalty.

Pique didn't have time to take his time, and he made a big gamble in a split second and fell straight to the ground to shovel.

He didn't touch the ball, but the tackle swept down Yang Yang, causing him to fall in the Barcelona penalty area.

Beep!!!

A crisp whistle sounded from behind him, followed by boos from 95,000 fans across the Camp Nou.

They were obviously not booing the referee, but booing Yang Yang for faking the penalty, which was also putting pressure on the referee.

Marenko had just failed to give Barcelona a penalty, but this time, he was pretty sure he ran towards the box.

The Barcelona players realized that something was wrong, led by Puyol and Busquets, and immediately chased after the referee, blocking the referee's way, and kept shouting at him, which was nothing more than saying that Yang Yang was faking a fall, and it should not be a penalty at all.

"I saw very clearly there that he was gone." Malenko replied with great certainty.

Let's ask, with Yang Yang's ability, once he breaks through Pique and forms a single knife, who will be able to stop him?

Why did he have to fake a penalty?

And look at Pique's down-to-earth posture in the penalty area, that is, sweeping the tackle, running towards Yang Yang's feet, not the ball.

The Barcelona players were very dissatisfied, surrounded the referee and put pressure, Xavi Alonso couldn't look at it, walked over to defend a few words, but it didn't work, and finally it was Marenko who got angry and threatened to pull out the cards, which forced the Barcelona players to retreat.

Marenko reached into his left chest, took out a yellow card, raised it high towards Pique in the box, and reached out to the penalty spot, indicating that it was a foul in the box, and the yellow card added a penalty.

The entire Camp Nou stadium erupted in frantic boos.

The 95,000 fans formed a wave, and the slightly more timid ones may not be able to stand firmly.

Yang Yang grabbed Robben's hand, stood up from the penalty area, looked at Marenko deeply, and then looked at Pique, who was still appealing to the referee, Yang Yang wanted to ask him, did you sweep my leg with your right foot, didn't you feel it yourself?

However, this argument is pointless.

Yang Yang looked around and found that everyone was looking at him, so he stepped forward, picked up the ball in the penalty area, walked to the penalty spot, gently put the ball on the white spot, and slowly retreated.

On the other side of him, Barcelona goalkeeper Valdés was completely stunned.
