Chapter 258: Ass Grinding Time

(Thanks for the tip from Fairy Lake!) οΌ‰

Looking at the list of players who started the game, almost all of the Barcelona players are attacking masters, and Manchester United is almost all defensive giants.

The goalkeeper is Van der Sar, so he needs no introduction. At the back, Neville unexpectedly appeared in the starting lineup, disrupting Barca's attacking deployment.

Barcelona players are certainly different from facing Brown and O'Shea, Neville's defense does not rely on speed, does not rely on body, defensive positioning is better, and the style of the old ball ruffian is easy to benefit from the confrontation.

The central defender position is Ferdinand and Vidic's partner, a golden partner, with the same effect as brain platinum; The left-back is Patrice Evra, who is not injured, and all that has come out is a scandal.

Manchester United deployed five midfielders in this game to strengthen the defensive depth. Mascherano, Mikel and Fletcher started the game, alongside Paul Scholes and Kay Sa in midfield, but were in ambush behind the strikers.

Ryan Giggs, Michael Carrick and Ji-Sung Park, who started the previous game, failed to start again. In the forward position, Saha returned in time, and Manchester United had one more option in the central striker position.

Pique looked at Saha, half envious, half expectant, "Center! I'm familiar with it. ”

At the beginning of the game, Barcelona took the lead in kicking off, and before the ball could be opened, Yaya Toure was cut off by Mikel and taken away directly.

Mikel quickly transferred to Kaysa.

Kaisa faced Xavi, protected the ball, passed people, Xavi couldn't stop it at all, his strength and defensive skills were not enough, and he couldn't prevent Kaisa.

Kaisa stepped forward, and Saha squeezed forward to make room for Kaisa. Kaisa didn't pass the ball and waited for Scholes to come up, have one more point of attack, and prepare to shoot from distance.

Kaisa saw the time, made a long diagonal pass, and gave the assist to Evra. Patrice Evra goes down and crosses with his feet.

Saha scrambles for a header but can't get to the first point and is headed out of the box by Puyol. Kaisa just caught up, stopped the ball with his chest, and made it for Saha who landed.

Saha was not slow, quickly twisted the ball, took a step, and carried Marquis to free up the angle of the shot to complete the first shot of the game.

Unfortunately, the angle was too positive, and ValdΓ©s pounced on it, and he couldn't form a threat.

"As soon as the two sides came up, they opened up the stance, and they did it on one bridge and one horse." ESPN's commentator Zhan Jun praised, "Barcelona must win this game, otherwise they can only be eliminated, and they are under more pressure than Manchester United." ”

"Everyone thought that Manchester United's starting lineup was to defend to the death, but they didn't expect that the attack was quite strong and threatened Barcelona's goal from the beginning. Barcelona, be careful......" Zhan Jun's commentary was full of passion.

Barcelona attacked, they found it difficult to advance, Xavi was followed by a person, the big man Saha, who simply grew up on Xavi, and wherever he went, Saha was stupid to follow.

Xavi couldn't get the ball, and Barcelona's organization was lowered a notch, Yaya Toure was responsible for organizing the attack, but he thought more about it, and he didn't give Messi more to give the ball to Henry's feet.

Henry is 31 years old, but his pace is still not slow, and in the face of his old rival Neville, he chose to sprint directly without consulting anyone.

When Henry was 2 years old, Neville was twice as old as him, and now that Henry is 31 years old, he probably thought Neville was 62 years old. He used his speed to eat an old opponent.

But surprisingly, Neville didn't seem to be that old, and the ball was taken straight away. "Ever thought about me? You're still too tender. Neville roared hoarsely, directly with the ball to assist, and the speed is not slow!

Henry hurriedly chased back, but couldn't catch up, the ball had been transferred to the middle, to the feet of Scholes, Manchester United continued to attack, there were not many points in the front, Kaisa was already sticking to a Deco next to him, it was not easy to give.

Then give the assist to Neville, get up and cross. Saha hit the first point and couldn't get on target, so he opted for a header back and it fell to Kaisa's feet.

Kai Sa directly kicked up, and the magic lamp exploded!

Boom!

The ball had a lot of power, but it wasn't fast enough and was blocked by Puyol and skewed off the line. Puyol fell to the ground, curled up, clutching a certain part in extreme pain.

Zhan Jun exclaimed, "Puyol risked cutting off his grandchildren to block Kaisa's shot, which is a spirit of dedication to the team." ”

The team doctor came on the field and quickly checked, it was no joke that there was a problem with this part. Men have three treasures, ginseng mink ura grass, no, sausage balls a bunch of grass.

The sausage is broken and is about to enter the palace.

Kaisa was also quite sorry, and crouched down to check, but fortunately Puyol was fine. Don't do that next time, the ball has no eyes and you'll die.

Puyol's spirit touched the whole of Barcelona, and their fighting power rose sharply and opened up completely. United held them down for 15 minutes and failed to score, before the Barcelona players began to control the tempo.

Xavi drops back to increase his chances of getting the ball, and Saha won't follow up before the centre-back, so it's not necessary or even more likely.

The center guards the midfielder, and generally after the midfield, he will not follow too closely, and the opponent has too many passing options, so isn't it stupid to follow?

After Xavi got the ball, Barcelona's organizational ability reached a new level, and Messi was also a lot more active. But he couldn't find space in the middle and pulled to the flanks and swapped places with Thierry Henry.

Neville faced Messi and the pressure was high.

"Rub, you also learn Kaisa?" Neville was on the verge of a big enemy, and he fought and retreated, and Messi also took the ball to the line of the big penalty area, the position of the Kaisa corridor.

Messi killed, failed to wear the crotch, did not have a good chance, gave the ball to Henry in the middle, Henry got rid of Mikel, crossed and gave Iniesta.

The speed of these passes was extremely fast, Barcelona had clearly practiced the routine, the United players could not react, and when Fletcher posted it, Iniesta had already entered the box.

Ferdinand stepped down and touched Iniesta.

The referee blew the whistle, resolute and firm. It seems that I have been waiting for this moment for half a century, and I don't want to wait for a second longer.

His finger points to the penalty spot!

Ferdinand smiled bitterly, there was no way, just now, between the lightning and flint, he couldn't control the angle and touched Iniesta.

Penalty kick!

'The referee awarded a penalty and United were in danger.' Zhan Jun yelled, "Van der Sar is ready, in the face of Iniesta's penalty, can he save the penalty?" ”

Iniesta has just consulted Messi, who believes that Iniesta created the penalty and should be taken by him. Even though Messi was the first penalty taker, he still didn't want to take the penalty.

As long as they score, Barcelona can equalize. And if it's an away goal, the two sides will be back on the same page. As long as Barcelona score one more goal, they can immediately turn the game around and reach the Champions League final.

If Barcelona scores another goal, Manchester United also scores, and the two sides are tied at 2:1, Manchester United is still out, and there are few away goals.

Andres Iniesta ran and shot at goal, Van der Sar judged the right direction, but the ball was too fast to save the ball and into the net.

Barcelona scores!

The score became 1:0. The big score became 1:1. The two sides returned to the same running line.

Andres Iniesta scored the penalty and the score was 1-1. It's a delicate scoreline. Of course, depending on the course of the game, there will be goals today. ”

After Barcelona's goal, the mentality relaxed, controlled the ball at the back, and slowly advanced, Manchester United played very uncomfortable.

Ferguson was so depressed that he was awarded a penalty, what did Ferdinand eat? Being controlled by Barcelona is a reprieve from death.

Manchester United's midfield was piled up with a number of defenders, and Barcelona's attack was not smooth, making it difficult to get through the midfield, and the two sides entered a difficult grinding time.

The shouts of the fans at Old Trafford shook the earth, and the players on both sides seemed to not hear it, and they went into an ethereal state on the pitch.
