Chapter 875: The Devil's Home Field

As soon as Ielo appeared at the Camp Nou, the Barcelona fans in the stands erupted into a hoarse boo, sweeping the stadium from one stand, so that the sky above the Camp Nou seemed to be covered with lingering dark clouds, giving people the illusion of suffocation.

Fortunately, Iroh is a natural big-spec player and did not show any discomfort in the face of overwhelming boos.

For Iello to be able to perform as usual under the boos of 90,000 home fans, so that teenagers James Rodriguez, Alba and Azpilicueta admired, especially Azpilicueta, he has been included in the main starting right back of this game, which means that he will face Messi's continuous breakthroughs in this game, and the pressure is not small!

The 40-minute warm-up time passed quickly, and as the players from both sides entered the dressing room, the Barcelona fans, who had been booing wildly, stopped booing and the stadium returned to calm.

Although Barcelona officially left 8,000 tickets for the visiting team, almost all of these positions are three-storey stands, and even worse still, it is almost impossible to expect their voices to reach the stadium directly opposite the two stands of the corner flag, which is the farthest point from the stadium......

So the strategy of Joe Pooh, the leader of the 'Batguard', in the stands was to hand out a white or orange square mosaic board to the Valencia fans in attendance, and arrange it strictly according to the pre-marked markings, so that a huge poster of Iello could be clearly seen in the foreground.

Joe Viney knew the home fans would be booing Iello from the first second of the game, and all they had to do was hold up a mosaic board and put it together to form a huge lifelike poster in support!

Since they are booing, they are booing......

What we have to do is let Iello on the pitch see that we ...... With you!

Joe Pooh himself had a very simple job, but he was the most tiring, waving a flag with the Valencia crest and Iello from the first second to the end of the game.

Fortunately, his body is big enough and he has plenty of energy, so it shouldn't be a big problem to support the whole game......

At this point, the players in the home dressing room looked a little reserved, or rather nervous, with Mascherano, Alves and Valdés being the most evident.

Similarly, the same is true for captain Puyol and Messi, but not as obvious as the likes of Mascherano.

As the game time approached, manager Pep Guardiola also seemed to feel a violent beating from his heart, as if he was about to jump out of his throat.

At this moment, assistant Vilanova patted Guardiola on the shoulder and came to his senses.

Guardiola took a deep breath, pressed down the breath in his heart, clapped his palms, and said to himself without waiting for the players' attention to be fully invested: "The importance of this league to us is self-evident, in order to make up for the mistake of our unexpected loss in the second round of the league, we must kill Valencia, I believe everyone knows that they said a lot of things that are not good for us Barcelona before the game, as a member of the great Barcelona, we must maintain the dignity of the team, and the only way to maintain dignity is to win the game!" ”

As Guardiola delved deeper and deeper into the topic, Messi's fists clenched tighter and tighter.

He can clearly remember that Barcelona's two-goal home defeat to promoted Mahecus in the second round of the league is inescapable of his responsibility, and now the manager Pep Guardiola's incident is brought up again, which is tantamount to making him fall into self-blame again......

However, Messi's conversion ability is particularly strong, he knows that the results caused by the past are irreparable, and he can only grasp the present, so he clenched his fists and held back his strength to lead the team to defeat the invincible Valencia at home in the next game, and ascend to the second place in the league by virtue of the relationship between each other!

Wait until the thirteenth round of the league to beat Real Madrid at home and return to the top of the league!

While Guardiola spoke, he didn't forget to glance at Messi, and when he saw Messi's eyes full of fighting spirit, he nodded secretly.

Rather than relying on a strong overall defeat of Valencia as the media said, Guardiola prefers Messi's phenomenal performance to lead Barcelona to defeat Valencia!

In the battle of strong dialogue, it is often relied on the flash of superstars at critical times!

Or rather...... Pep Guardiola bet on Messi on the outcome of the game.

The atmosphere in the visitors' dressing room is in stark contrast to that of the home team's dressing room.

As they entered the dressing room, they went about their own business, and Iroh glanced at his relaxed teammates, knowing that he had been successful in attracting hatred lately, keeping them collectively out of the fire of the Catalan media and thus ensuring that they had plenty of energy to focus on for future matches......

It wasn't until five minutes later that everyone walked up to the ready-to-go manager, Carlo Ancelotti.

Carlo Ancelotti didn't say much, just repeated the pre-match setup and summarized the core of the main points.

Everyone thinks that if Valencia wants to win away from home, they must learn from the tactics of promoted Mahcus to beat Barcelona in the second round, hoarding all 10 of their defenders in an area of 30 meters, compressing the space for Barcelona's frontcourt players, so as to force them to make active mistakes and play quick counter-attacks.

Coupled with the fact that Valencia has Elo, a super counter-attacking weapon, it is even more important to use the tactics of defensive counterattacks to the extreme.

In fact, Ancelotti has also considered this method, but he has no confidence in the team's stubborn defense, the team has always been in a four-three-three formation or a four-two-three-one formation, if you suddenly change tactics, it is very likely that the defense will not be able to prevent and the goal will not be scored.

So in the end, it was decided to attack instead of defend and play against Barcelona at Camp Nou!

Ancelotti firmly believes that the attacking line composed of David Villa, Ailo and David Silva is definitely not inferior to the attacking system with Messi as the core!

Ten minutes before the start of the game, two assistant referees knocked on the doors of the home and away dressing rooms, informing them that they could go to the players' tunnel to wait for their play.

As is customary in international practice, players from both sides have to switch shots when they come out of their dressing rooms, and this is no longer the case in the much-watched Spanish national derby.

"CCTV, good morning, welcome to continue to watch our football broadcast, next to the 2010-2011 Spanish Primera Liga season seventh round of a major event, Barcelona at home to Camp Nou against league leaders Valencia......"

While the live feed was connected to the Camp Nou players' tunnel, La Liga commentator Victor began to make a unified opening statement.

From the camera, it can be clearly seen that the Valencia players who are playing away are already waiting in the players' tunnel, while the Barcelona players who are playing at home seem to be playing the score, slowly walking from the corner of the second floor to the eighteenth staircase.

Barcelona is a big international player, and Valencia is the same, so there are a lot of players from the same country in this game, but the meaning behind this game is extraordinary, so the players of both teams feel a lot of pressure, and the players do not make any communication between them, almost all of them do not squint.

Iello was Valencia's captain of the game, standing at the top of the team on the right, which allowed Messi, Mascherano and Alves, who were at the end of the line, to see their backs clearly without turning their heads, and I don't know if they had the illusion that when they swept over, they seemed to see Elo's back getting bigger and bigger......

Accompanied by the radio at the Camp Nou, the Barcelona team song "Barcelona, Barcelona!" was played. More than 90,000 fans erupted into huge cheers at the same time, almost covering up the background music, which is enough to show how powerful the energy of the fans on the scene is.

However, the cheers only lasted for a while, and as the camera focused on Valencia's captain Elo, nearly 90,000 Barcelona fans in the stands let out a suffocating boo.

The nearly 90,000 fans at home held up a mosaic board that FC Barcelona had placed in advance of their seats, with red and blue as well as yellow.

The stands facing the main engine are particularly powerful, with red and blue as the visual background, and the yellow mosaic panels can be seen on the TV screen spelling out the huge English letters 'BARCA' in the second-floor stands, which looks very visually impactful.

Completely worthy of the title of one of the top 10 'home of the devil' in Europe!

As Iello walked into the stadium, he also looked at the stands, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, how great it would be if the Mestalla Stadium could accommodate nearly 100,000 fans......

Of course, the live director also gave the camera to the Valencia fans in the far corner, but the time was far less than that of the home team.

The ensuing ceremony was familiar and concise, with players from both sides shaking hands before the game to show friendship first and game second.

Immediately after that, the players of both sides took a group photo on each side, and then the captains of both sides went to the referee to guess the ball and exchange team flags.

As a result, Iello lost the pick, but won the tee-off.

As the game was about to begin, the Barcelona fans who had been holding mosaic boards in the stands were back in their seats.

Those who have fan groups hold up slogans or banners in support of Barcelona, and some fans hold up ugly posters of Iello's cartoons, in short, there is everything, or the atmosphere of Barcelona's home stadium is quite strong......

When the fans in the stands saw Iello and David Villa walking towards the center of the pitch, they blurted out utter uttered a boo.

The wild boos that erupted from nearly 90,000 home fans really made people feel suffocated, but it was completely ineffective against the person concerned, Iroh......
