Chapter 117: Don't underestimate the enemy! (1st Update)
“Goooooooooooooaaaaaaaaaaal!”
"Jiang Chenxi! Shovel shot! Huh! Entered! Entered! He scored against Barcelona! Basel leads Barcelona 1-0! Jiang Chenxi scored with the first shot of this game! In the first thirty-five minutes of the game, he was like an assassin hidden in the fog, we couldn't see him, at this moment, the cold light of the sharp dagger pierced the fog, he was like an assassin! The assassin strikes, and the throat is sealed with blood! This is the charm of the striker......" He Wei was cheering for Jiang Chenxi.
“1:0! Basel took the lead and the scorer was ...... River!!!! ”
"One second, he was almost invisible, and the next second, Jiang scored the goal! Pique didn't look at him at all! ”
"The first shot was scored, this is Jiang, the terrifying scoring efficiency!"
"Barcelona conceded a goal! Jiang's goal! He broke through Valdés' goal! Salah didn't pose much of a threat after his shot was blocked, but with Jiang here, that's the biggest threat! Just give him the slightest chance and he can score! Hansen shouted as he waved his fist in the commentary booth at St. Jakob's Park.
For a while, the entire commentary table was boiling.
All the commentators except the Spanish commentators cheered for the goal, and in such a game of great disparity, everyone hoped that the weaker side would score a goal, so that the game would be more interesting.
……
"Well done!" Basel head coach Heckie. Vogel raised his arms in celebration and high-fived his assistant.
It was a timely and crucial goal.
It was a great encouragement to the whole Basel team, who defended desperately to make sure they didn't concede a goal, and now the goal is the greatest tribute to their efforts.
"This is Jiang! This is Jiang! Worger said excitedly.
In fact, it was not a great opportunity to score, and it was even Jiang Chenxi's first shot on goal in this game, but he seized the opportunity and scored.
……
Barcelona coach Vilanova was a little unhappy with the goal.
He shook his head and shouted Pique's name from the sidelines, "Gerrard, what are you doing?" ”
When Jiang Chenxi was running and sprinting, Pique actually stood in place and did not follow, which was an unforgivable mistake.
On the field, Pique was annoyed when he saw the ball conceded, and then, his reaction was swift, and he didn't care about continuing to be annoyed, he immediately raised his hand and signaled that Jiang Chenxi was offside.
However, Italian referee Rizzoli shook his head and ignored Pique's protests, making a gesture and pointing to the centre circle, and the goal was valid.
Peake was protesting, and he complained that Jiang was offside. Let's look at the replay, there is no offside, the moment Salah shoots, Pique drags behind, he has half of his body behind Jiang, this is a good ball, not offside. ”
Seeing that the referee ignored the direct protest, Pique was angry and wanted to continue to say something, but captain Messi came over to persuade him.
"Shut up, Jerry, do you want to play cards?"
Peake could only keep his mouth shut.
Then he glanced at Song dissatisfied, this guy patted his chest and promised to stop Salah, what was the result...... Unreliable guys.
……
"The first thing Pique has to review is himself." The Spanish commentator was very dissatisfied with the goal conceded, criticizing and saying, "He was too light on the enemy, too relaxed, when Jiang was running, Pique didn't act at all, he didn't expect Jiang to step forward, and directly chose to hand over the ball to the goalkeeper to deal with, as a top central defender, this is not a problem of ability, it is a problem of attitude, he is too relaxed." ”
The goal gave Basel a 1-0 lead, but, in the eyes of the Spanish commentator, it would not affect the bigger picture, and Barcelona were soon able to score a goal to turn the score.
What made him unhappy was that Jiang Chenxi scored again, and now, Chinese's goals in the Champions League scorer list have climbed to 11 goals, 2 goals ahead of Messi......
……
After Jiang Chenxi scored, the players in Basel were excited, and they all rushed up to hug him to celebrate.
It was a morale-boosting goal.
Basel's previous efforts were more like holding their breath, once the situation was unfavorable, for example, Barcelona scored first, this breath will be vented, and Basel will collapse if it is not good, repeating the mistakes of the first leg.
However, now, Jiang Chenxi's goal is nothing less than a shot in the arm, which makes the whole team excited, and now, they really see hope and really feel that they have a chance to fight for a victory, even if the opponent is Barcelona.
……
Basel head coach Hawky. Vogel shouted loudly from the sidelines, waving his arms and gesturing.
The whole team returns to defense!
After conceding the goal, Barcelona is bound to be 'annoyed and angry' and attack even more frantically.
All Basel has to do is hold on and not concede the goal.
Voger is very pragmatic and will not expect to play a counter-attack when Barcelona are pressing hard, and that kind of good thing may happen, but the most important thing is to stand on the defense first.
With less than 10 minutes left in the first half, it was better to defend the one-goal lead than to risk pressing out and attacking.
Basel's tactical choice is correct: after conceding the goal, the Barcelona people are very unhappy, and they want to take advantage of Basel's just goal, maybe they are not concentrating enough, or they dream of pressing out the opportunity to attack to score, but after seeing Basel lead, they play more conservatively, and the Barcelona players know that their plan to steal chickens cannot be realized.
In the ensuing game, Barcelona continued to control the game, but in the face of Basel's full defense, especially the pressing defense of the three midfielders who took turns to strangle and intercept, they also struggled to find a path to the goal for a while.
In the end, at the end of the first half, Basel temporarily led Barcelona 1-0 with Jiang Chenxi's goal.
Currently, the aggregate score of the two legs is Basel 1:4 Barcelona!
……
Intermission.
Away team dressing room at St. Jakobs Park.
Barcelona captain Puyol, who missed the game due to injury, found Pique.
"Jerry, what's going on?" Puyol asked.
"I didn't expect ...... either" Pique felt weak as he faced the old captain.
"Don't underestimate the enemy! How many times have I said that no matter what opponent you are facing, you must be vigilant. Puyol said earnestly, "Don't take the enemy lightly! This is the most important criterion for defenders. ”
"I don't underestimate the enemy." Pique stiffened his neck and said, he didn't admit that he underestimated the enemy, this was just a mistake in judgment, he felt that he had seen through the routine of the Chinese striker, and saw Jiang Chenxi in the retreat ready to respond, he judged that the other party was planning to cooperate with Salah, who would have thought that this guy was so cunning, not according to the routine, on the way back, at the moment when Salah shot, he suddenly turned around and ran back, he didn't notice it for a while......
……
Syllable!
Puyol patted Pique's head, "Is there a light enemy?" ”
"Underestimated." Peake nodded immediately.
"It's good to know that you're wrong, don't underestimate the enemy." Puyol patted Pique's shoulder, this is La Masia's own people, the lad has always worked hard, great, and now he is a top defender, but he is still young, in the face of a weak team, it is normal to not be stable enough and a little underestimated, just learn a lesson.
"Yes." Pique hastened to assure, "I promise, that kid won't score again." ”
……
Although they were 1-0 down at half-time, the Barcelona players did not panic and everyone was very sure that they could come back from behind to win in the second half.
Nice atmosphere in the locker room.
Messi was talking softly with Sanchez and Pedro, Messi gesturing to indicate how they should run, and the two nodded violently: Makes sense.
Alves was bullying and teasing the young man again, and like a fox in a prison escape, he turned the pocket of his pants out, and motioned for Tello to pull, who turned his head and ignored it: this old bastard.
On the other side, Alexander. Song is answering the phone: What, you have already eaten up the beef? Need money to buy a car?
