Chapter 193: The skin can't see through it
When the loud cheers ended, Danielle's companions stared at him in amazement.
"Danielle, what's wrong with you?"
Danielle glared at them: "What's wrong?" Isn't that what you've always wanted me to do! ”
"That being said, but you never cheered for a high goal before, and you used to stick your ass to the chair......"
Under everyone's gaze, Danielle raised his hands: "Okay, I'm beaten by Gao, I'm now his supporter, I apologize to you for the mistakes I made before......"
But some of the partners did not appreciate it, and they shouted: "It is not us who you should apologize for, but him!" ”
They pointed to the sidelines.
Danielle knew who they were referring to, so he said, "Don't worry, I'll apologize to him in person!" I want you to assure you that if you are not at ease, I can invite you to testify......"
"Oh! That's what you said, Danielle! The friends coaxed.
"Yes, I said it! You'll see me apologize to Gao when the time comes! Danielle affirmed.
"Hah! That's great! Welcome back, Danielle! You're still our buddy! ”
Everyone embraced Danielle with open arms, and the former friends hugged each other again.
At the same time, on the court, Gao Zheng and his teammates also hugged each other and celebrated the goal.
The entire Calderón Stadium was filled with joy, except for the Barcelona fans and players.

Before Gao Zheng scored, Barcelona basically had the advantage in the first half, and seeing that the time in the first half was almost out, although there was no goal, Barcelona was also acceptable. Wait until half-time to adjust and strengthen the attack, then it will be a matter of time before the second half blows up the Atletico Madrid goal.
Enrique is not in the slightest worried about this.
What Barcelona do best is control the game, control the situation, and as long as they control the game, very few teams can get out of their control.
Unexpectedly, just when everyone was optimistic about the future, Gao Zheng's heads-up knocked Barcelona into the abyss.
After Pique was shaken to the ground by Gao Zheng, he got up and saw the scene where Gao Zheng shot and scored. At this time, he must have wished he hadn't said that in a radio interview.
“…… If I can't stop him, won't our champion be gone? So I'm going to guard against him for sure, because we're going to be champions! ”
What the! Why did I recall this sentence at this time?
Now the sentence was like a slap in the face to him.
Pique's expression was ugly.
Although his expression was not much different from that of the other Barcelona players after conceding the goal, he was still reminded of something by the keen commentators and made his own interpretation.
“…… Pique went down when he was defending high, and I think this scene will definitely become a classic scene of this game after the game, and it will be played repeatedly. If Pique wants to feel better, he'd better stay off the internet and watch the news for the last two weeks...... Of course, if Barcelona end up winning the tournament and the league, then this time can be shortened to two days......"
Gao's breakthrough just now was so beautiful, he shook Xu twice in a row, which made Pique completely stunned. To be honest, it's really rare for me to see Pique shaken up like this, even against Cristiano Ronaldo, he may not be like this......"
"Chinese fans have a nickname for Pique, called 'Pi sees through', but this time, in the process of defending Gao Zheng, Pique obviously did not see through Gao Zheng's feints!"

Enrique was a little angry, and after conceding the ball, he turned around and yelled at his assistant coach Winsué: "I said it! I said it before the game! I told him to give his full attention and be extra careful when defending! But he still let Gao get rid of it so easily! ”
Trying to appease the manager's anger, Winsue said: "But Luis, you can't simply blame Pique's defense for this goal, he has played well against Gao, it's not that he has a problem defending, it's that high ...... It's too strong......"
Enrique also calmed down from the initial venting, as a manager, it is useless to simply vent emotions, and it is also a sign of "incompetence".
The goal has been conceded and now we have to think about how to solve the problem.
In Barcelona's favor, they don't necessarily have to win this game, as long as they fight their opponents and continue to maintain the advantage of being level on points against Atletico Madrid but higher in the table, and beat Deportivo La Coruna at home in the last game.
A home win over Deportivo La Coruna, who are 17th in the league, should not be a problem for Barcelona, although Deportivo also need to be relegated.
So in this game, although Barcelona are already behind, they are only one goal behind, and as long as they can recover one goal, the initiative will return to them.
Atletico Madrid, on the other hand, is a game they can't afford to lose or draw, they have to win.
Don't look at Atletico Madrid already have a one-goal lead, but the pressure is still on their side. Because people all over the world know that a one-goal lead is the least secure.
There was also a favourable situation for Barcelona – Atletico Madrid took the lead but had little time left in the first half, and their high morale and form were soon punctuated by a fifteen-minute half-time break.
And you have the time and opportunity to adjust.
So as long as they withstood the offensive of Atletico Madrid in the final stage of the first half, Barcelona in the second half had hope of resurrection.
Enrique made his decision quickly, walking to the sidelines and reminding his players to be defensive until the end of the first half, while the Atletico Madrid players were still celebrating their goals.
Of course, Barcelona's defense is not a full retreat back to their own defensive third, and the way of putting on a bus is not what Barcelona is used to being good at. Their defence is to keep the ball at their feet and pass the ball forward as little as risky.
With Barcelona's unique possession of the ball, when they keep the ball at their feet and pass around with safety as the main thing, there are basically no teams that can break the ball at their feet.
This kind of defense, which keeps football flowing at their feet, is indeed something that only Barcelona can do......

Messi had a football under his feet and waited for the Atletico Madrid players to return to their own half of the pitch before kick-off.
Surrounded by his teammates, Gao Zheng ran past him not far away with a smile.
The two of them passed by, but neither of them looked at anyone.
Messi tilted his head slightly and looked in the direction of Atletico Madrid's goal. Gao Zheng, who was surrounded by his teammates, smiled happily.
