Volume 6 Chapter 26 Peak Showdown

There is always a kind of player who can't defend thoroughly, such as Messi and Mack Qin on the field, and being able to coach this kind of player may be the greatest luck of many coaches in their lives.

Because they can somehow go beyond tactics and solve battles alone, as Van Basten, Romario, Ronaldo once did.

Pep Guardiola and Carlo Ancelotti both have this happiness because they have Messi and Mackin at their hands, but they also have the same troubles because the other side has Mack and Messi in their hands.

It's like hanging a sword of Damocles over their heads, and you don't know if it's going to fall, and you don't know when it's going to fall, it's always a little bit of a concern.

Mackin stood up first, and then amicably pulled up Messi, who had just fallen out of his back, and with his ability to control his center of gravity, it was not easy to see this scene.

This is also due to Atletico's chain defense, which comes up one after another, continuously.

"Corner kick, it is estimated that the referee will blow the whistle after the penalty", Zhan Jun said, "Messi's series of breakthroughs just now are like butterflies wearing flowers, and his personal ability is too strong"

"Sometimes it really can't be prevented," Zhang Lu also said.

But whether it is the two of them or the commentators of other countries, in today's world, Messi has not been put in a position as high as in his previous life, and Mack Qin has taken away too much of his starlight.

On the contrary, although Mero is stronger than Mack in terms of individual dribbling and physical fitness, Mack is firmly in the top spot with an absolute number of honors.

Especially the World Cup, which is an existence that ordinary people cannot easily surpass.

The 19-year-old helped England lift the Hercules Cup after a 44-year absence, and the miracle is a miracle because it easily doesn't happen a second time.

"Beep", the referee blew the whistle for the end of the first half, and De Gea jumped high and plucked the ball off Pique's head, without giving Barcelona another chance.

With Mackqin's fairy-ball barb, Atletico was able to take a 1-0 lead over Barcelona heading into the break.

Ancelotti and Guardiola have a relaxed expression, and the other can't hide their anxiety, in fact, no matter what the result, there is not much they can do, it depends on their personal luck.

And it was clear that Carlo Ancelotti had a bit of better luck in the first half.

"Coach Zhang, you can analyze the performance of the two teams in the first half", when all the players of the two teams walked into the passage, Zhan Jun said routinely.

"Well, good", Zhang Lu nodded, "In the first half, both teams actually had a chance, and they also played what they were good at, the difference is that Mr. Ma seized an opportunity"

Zhang Lu first made a summary, and then began to comment on the differences between the two teams in terms of technical tactics and player performance one by one, talking eloquently, but it is true that many domestic fans' understanding of techniques and tactics comes from this old man who has been active in the football circle.

"Needless to say, Mr. Ma, I feel that he has risen again this season", Zhang Lu continued, "I often thunder on the ground, and I play more and more demonic"

"Indeed, I feel this way too", Zhan Jun nodded in agreement, "To paraphrase a popular saying, maybe the sky is his limit"

"Hehe, what about this Messi, this season is also unstoppable, he won the Golden Ball last year, and this season has been pressing Ronaldo and Mr. Ma in personal data", Zhang Lu smiled.

"But as far as this game is concerned, he is not very efficient in breaking through the wings, this has to talk about Atletico Madrid's defense, few people look at Serie A now, Atletico Madrid, a bit like Italy's previous defense, really did a very good job"

At the moment in Calderon's away dressing room, Guardiola first talked about the rhythm of the pass for about seven or eight minutes, which he thought was a bit slow, which was the main reason why they didn't score in the first half.

'Picking up the tempo a little bit and if we keep going slow will only give them the illusion that their defence is working, and that will give them a lot of confidence,' he said with his pockets, without expressing the hidden anxiety to his players.

"Leao (Messi)", after saying that, he turned his head and said, "In the first half you were a little too rigid on the wing, they arranged enough people there to wait for you, in the second half to increase the proportion of the middle, they can't guard you every time"

"Okay," replied Messi as he sipped a sports drink.

"A goal is nothing", Guardiola concluded with a final slap in the face, "We all know Calderón is difficult to play, but in the second half we have to try to score away goals, it may be a matter of who can advance, I think, it is also difficult for you to accept that all three lines are suppressed by the Madrid team......"

Mackin was the last to walk onto the pitch as Carlo Ancelotti pulled him in from behind to talk about some of the possible changes in the second half and how to deal with them.

He took note of them one by one, and then ran to the middle of the field amid the cheers of the audience.

In this game, there are still 45 minutes of fighting.

"Okay, the second half has begun, Barcelona kicked off first, and there were no substitutions between the two teams at halftime", Zhan Jun's voice sounded again.

Atletico Madrid still maintained the defensive strategy of the first half, and began to tighten up in the midfield, and the effective strategy is generally not easily changed.

It's just that Cesc Fabregas dropped back further, assisting Xavi to sort out Barcelona's midfield together, Andres Iniesta went up the front, and Villa became a central striker.

It sounds complicated, but it can be understood as a change of player position.

"Don't just stare at people, pay attention to the position of the area", Mackin played for a few minutes and noticed the difference, and quickly reminded his teammates not to patronize the marking and lose their position.

After Xiaofa retreated, it was indeed becoming more and more difficult for Atletico to intercept Barcelona's pass in the midfield, and they significantly increased the speed of the pass.

"Xavi, give Iniesta, Iniesta, dribble laterally", Zhan Jun explained, and Barcelona quickly passed the ball in front of the penalty area.

Iniesta made a small cross during the lateral dribble and passed the ball to Villa, who were ready to receive the ball in the box, and their small skills were indeed above Atletico.

Godin held Villa firmly against him, preventing him from turning and threatening in the six-yard box, but Villa pushed back to make a wall and pass the ball back.

I saw Iniesta quickly inserted in a small space, ready to catch the ball and burst into the penalty area, Gabi clung to him tightly, but Xiaobai is Xiaobai.

He made a sharp stop during the run, and threw Gabi in front of him, and the whole movement seemed extremely light, and then immediately another horizontal push.

"Messi ......", Zhan Jun shouted, a short figure ran from the side in front of the arc of the big penalty area, and shot directly from the side, and the rushing up Mackin didn't even have time to turn his back, and the ball swept past his ear like a wind, blowing his face painfully.

"Oh, good ball, Barcelona almost equalized the score in the second half", the ball grazed the right post and spun out of the bottom line, causing a burst of exclamations.

Messi clutched his hair with his hands in frustration, obviously regretting that the goal was not scored, and if the equaliser had been equalized at the beginning of the second half, it would certainly be quite beneficial for them.

"Attention, attention, they picked up the speed and followed", Gabi, as the commander of the defence, also noticed the change in the second half of Barcelona, clapping his hands and admonishing.

Pep Guardiola on the sidelines thought he was in, but when he saw the ball sliding out of the door, he squatted directly on the ground with his head in his hands, and beat the lawn, SHIT.

Every opportunity is invaluable for both sides to have five or six shots on goal at the moment, and they are not playing against a weak team who can shoot 30 times a game.

In a game of this level, the number of effective shots in a game can be 5 or 6 times, even if it is a pretty good game, how can he not be annoyed.

Maybe Calderón's luck is really not on his side.

He hasn't won at this stadium since Mackin arrived, almost losing all of them, which is unthinkable for Barcelona now, and they haven't been so embarrassed at the Bernabeu.

And after being crowned king in two lines last year, he was far from the sharpness of the past, as if he had finally completed the task and graduated from high school, but he showed a little tiredness.

"Whoa...... roar", cheers from the stands pulled him back into the game, and he looked up just in time to see Pique take a step ahead of Aguero in his own box and head the ball out of the box.

They still couldn't prevent Atletico's advance, and the ball was also hit into their box, and the flying ball made Mackin turn his back to protect him, separating Buzkets who tried to press.

Butskec was firmly attached to him, and if it weren't for Calderón, he would definitely use both hands and feet, but with the power of Macklin's free-kicks, it would be better to be restrained.

Swing left, swing right!

It seems that they are going to do a feint to get rid of Buzkets, after all, this is in front of the big forbidden area, it is indeed a feint, but it is not a feint as they imagined.

After taking two steps back to dribble, his left foot crossed directly in front of him and his right foot, and then his back heel slammed into the ball.

The ball slid straight at Bucquets' feet and, as if he had an eye in the back of his head, slashed diagonally through the bond between Pique and Alves.

Felipe quickly cut in, and Barcelona's backline was of course pressing out, "bang", "Felipe......", "Oh......"

No one expected it to come suddenly, and the ball grazed the palm of Barders' flying out, as well as the far post, and flew directly out of the bottom line.

That's just a little bit.

"Beautiful, Mr. Ma's heel passed like a fairy in seconds, directly hitting the gap on the left side of Barcelona, and Felipe inserted it in a timely ......," Zhan Jun shouted.

"Oh, Felipe can take the ball inside, it's a little anxious", Zhang Lu also said regretfully.

This time, it turned Ancelotti into frustration, and if this goal had scored, they would have killed half of the game, but unfortunately it was also unlucky.

Valdés scrambled to his feet, as if he had suddenly seen something, and quickly ran to the bottom line to pick up the ball, and then handed a short pass to Buzketz.

Mackin was retreating, and Barcelona drove so fast a little more than he expected, and he turned his head to see that Messi had run to the middle near the center circle.

And Butskec has also swung his legs, "Watch Messi, stop this ball", he shouted loudly to Gabi and his defenders on the line, and then immediately started and went straight to Messi.

Butskec really made a strong push, the ball passed through the half, straight to Messi, Gabi threw himself the line, and did not touch the ball.

Let's start, wipe Martinez, this, it's Messi!

"Messi, it's ...... speed", Zhan Jun shouted, "Danger, you have to stop him!" ”

Mark held his head high and desperately swung his legs to the top of the arc of the penalty area on his side, Gabi couldn't go back because of the tackle, and Martinez was chasing Messi behind.

And there, the top of the arc of the big penalty area is the key area for Messi to create a threat in the middle, whether it is a long-range shot or a horizontal dribble to the ribs of the penalty area on the other side, it needs to pass through the top of the arc.

If Messi breaks through in a straight line, he believes Silva and Felipe will handle it.

"Go ......", Catalan fans and media are collectively excited and full of anticipation at this moment, because at this time Messi, countless pictures have proved that it is almost unstoppable......
