No. 952: Puyol scored with a header, 2-1, Barcelona took the lead!
After the sigh, Guardiola returned to the game: "We all understand that half of Real Madrid's quick counter-attacks are launched from Alonso, so as long as we can contain Alonso, we can contain half of Real Madrid's quick counter-attacks. ”
Then he said something specific: "I don't mean to stop Alonso from receiving the ball, but when he receives the ball, the players closest to us immediately block him and don't give him a chance to play. ”
Xavi, Iniesta and others nodded again and again after thinking about it, this method is good.
If you don't give Alonso the ball, then Real Madrid can hand over the football to someone else to launch a quick counterattack, rather than this, it is better to continue to let Alonso get the ball, but on him will kill Real Madrid's quick counterattack!
Chen and Ronaldo are so fast that once the football comes to them, it is almost impossible to contain them, and the best way to curb Real Madrid's rapid counter-attack now is to contain Alonso.
……
After a fifteen-minute half-time break, players from both sides returned to the pitch and fans from both sides in the stands were re-excited.
"Tick! ……”
With the referee's whistle, the decisive battle of the second half began!
Real Madrid, with the exception of three strikers who pressed for the ball, were all in their own half, and they formed a defensive line.
The Barcelona players did not give Real Madrid's three strikers the opportunity to press tightly, and quickly transferred the football to the front through a quick pass.
The two sides launched a fierce battle in the midfield, and the screams were frequent!
The screams were accompanied by the fallen figures......
The brutal battle for midfield began, and the Real Madrid players, as Mourinho said, completely turned the stadium into a battlefield and the Barcelona players were their enemies.
Barça's advance has been incredibly slow.
But Barcelona is still Barcelona, and although they pushed hard, they still pushed the football in front of the Real Madrid penalty area step by step.
In the eighth minute of the second half, after Xavi received Messi's knockback, he suddenly made a long pass and transferred the football to the left side.
Sanchez quickly crossed with the football, and the football flew into the Real Madrid penalty area against the turf!
The Real Madrid defenders relied on their strong bodies to cling to the Barcelona players who were ambushed in the penalty area, and did not give them the opportunity to grab a shot.
Pepe leaned on Messi, half-turned and kicked the football into the half-court.
Puyol raised his chest to stop the ball, then handed it to Pique next to him, and Barcelona attacked again, and the tempo of the field was once again controlled by Barca.
In the fifteenth minute of the second half, Real Madrid once again broke up Barcelona's penetration in the penalty area, and Carvalho handed the football to Alonso, who received it from outside the box.
Xavi and Iniesta immediately blocked and didn't give him a chance to pass the ball at all!
Barcelona's two midfielders snuffed out Real Madrid's chance of a quick counter-attack in the cradle, and Real Madrid could only attack from a positional position.
Containing Real Madrid's rapid counterattack, Barcelona stifled most of Real Madrid's attacking firepower, and Real Madrid's attack became difficult.
In the twenty-first minute of the second half, Chen Fan turned on the breakthrough mode, and after taking the ball near the center circle, he passed four Barcelona players to the penalty area.
He was shocked to find himself in front of Pique and Puyol, and Abidal on his right.
At this moment, Chen Fan's physical fitness has reached the limit, and he is not sure to break through the defense line of the three generals in the Barcelona back, so he passes diagonally to the right side.
Ozil, who was plugged in, flew forward to control the ball, and then he dodged Abidal's defence and crossed the middle!
Benzema moves to meet the ball, he wants to grab a shot!
Pique's right shoulder slammed into his left shoulder, causing him to lose his center of gravity.
Benzema pushes hard with his right foot!
The power and angle of the ball were not tricky, and Valdés easily pounced on the ball.
Real Madrid lost the chance to overtake the scoreline.
Three minutes later, Messi also broke through from the hinterland with color, and passed three Real Madrid players to the penalty area before a diagonal pass, and Iniesta inserted it with a strong shot!
The soccer ball is off the post!
The sharpest breakthrough player in the two teams showed his talent to the world, which made the reporters on the sidelines can't help but shake their heads and sigh: It is already the limit to have such a superstar in an era, who knew that there would be two!
For fans all over the world, it is extremely tangled, who are they going to become?
But they are extremely happy, and they are fortunate to be in such an era and see these two competing on the field with their own eyes!
After Chen Fan completed that successful breakthrough, Barcelona defended him more tightly, and after that, he fell into Barcelona's heavy surrounding.
Coupled with the fact that Alonso was contained, Real Madrid's rapid counterattacks often turned into positional attacks, and Chen Fan's speed had no room to play at all, and he could not carry out long-distance attacks.
In this case, Chen Fan's performance was greatly reduced, so the Real Madrid players gave more opportunities to Ronaldo.
However, Ronaldo scored eagerly, failed to adjust his state to the best state, shot again and again, and the football flew out of the bottom line again and again......
Real Madrid's attack is in trouble.
Time is running out fast, and Barca's attacking firepower is getting bigger and bigger.
With Messi being closely watched by Real Madrid, other Barcelona players stepped up.
In the twenty-eighth minute of the second half, Iniesta made a long shot from outside the penalty area, and the football flew out of the bottom line against the crossbar!
Barcelona came back three minutes later, when Iniesta latched on to Messi's cross and dribbled into the Real Madrid penalty area, before distributing the ball to his own right.
Sanchez dodged Marcelo's defense and shot with his feet!
Casillas bravely saves the ball from the bottom line!
Barcelona corner kick, Xavi sent the football into the Real Madrid penalty area, Puyol rose from the ground, a ferocious header, the football flew towards the upper left corner of the goal like a cannonball!
Casillas couldn't make a save and could only watch the ball fly into the goal!
The ball is in!
Two to one!
Barcelona made the aggregate score four to four!
According to this scoreline, it will be Barcelona who will advance, as they have two away goals compared to Real Madrid's one!
The Camp Nou let out earth-shattering cheers and screams......
The Catalan TV commentator shouted excitedly: "In the semi-finals of the World Cup in South Africa the year before last, Spain used a corner kick to break through the German team's goal with Puyol's header, and eliminated Germany by one goal to advance to the final!" ”
"It happened again two years later, when Puyol's header gave Barcelona the high ground to advance!"
"At the critical moment, Puyol stepped up again!"
In the command area, Pep Guardiola excitedly shook his fists in celebration, Mourinho's face was extremely serious, and he gave orders to his players to strengthen the attack.
Real Madrid have no way back now and they have to score goals to turn the tide around.
"Puyol!"
"Puyol!"
"Puyol!"
There was a huge sound at the Camp Nou, and some fans even unfurled banners like this: Puyol, you are our captain forever!
