Chapter 451: Helpless Move
Looking at the young but not immature faces in the locker room, Tito Vilanova didn't know what else to say, the tactical preparations that should have been made had already been arranged, and pre-game mobilization has never been his forte, just looking at Messi, Pique, Pedro, Bojan, Busquets and others that he had cultivated with all his heart, the corners of Tito Vilanova's dry mouth finally moved.

"Football is not about life and death, but football is higher than life and death"
"I don't know how Bill Shankly felt when he said that, but I knew how I was feeling at this time."
"I don't know how long I have to live, maybe a year, maybe two years, maybe just a month or two, and the doctor has already issued a death notice to me."
"Death has never been so close to me"
"It's just that at this time, I don't feel scared and scared at all, I only feel reluctant, and my mind is full of those beautiful and exciting memories at the beginning."
"I used to think about what I would be like without football after I retired"
"Oh, that was a terrible experience"
"But fortunately, I don't have to worry about it now"
"It's just that I'm worried now that I'll never see you celebrating in the Champions League final again."
"I want to win, yes, I've never wanted to win so much, I ask, no, I beg you to let me feel that unspeakable palpitation again"
……
"Coach Tao, what do you think of this game" When the Barcelona and Manchester City players began to walk out of the tunnel together, the Camp Nou stadium had become a sea of cheers, and Duan Xuan took the opportunity to switch the TV screen back to the live broadcast room.
"What do I think? I don't dare to jump to conclusions now, but at least I'm a lot more relaxed now."
"Haha, it seems that Coach Tao is still angry about Manchester City's elimination of Bayern"
"Yes, don't worry too much, you can concentrate on commenting the game" Although Tao Wei did not answer Duan Xuan's ridicule directly, he still mocked himself between words.
"But although I don't dare to predict the outcome too early, but I can probably know the style of play on both sides, first of all, Manchester City's style of play will definitely continue the idea of the last game, the bus tactics themselves are the best way to deal with Barcelona, I believe that if Mancini really wants to win desperately, we may have to watch a dull game again today"
"Yes, it's not just dull, it's boring, but who made Mancini have Ye Xin, his performance in the last penalty shootout was really amazing, if he didn't really appear on the field, I couldn't believe that someone could clean up the penalty" Tao Wei's words were a bit long, and there seemed to be a little stuck in the middle, Duan Xuan saw that he immediately made up for Tao Wei's words, and at this time, Tao Wei finally organized his language again and continued to speak.
"Ye Xin's strength is beyond doubt, now it depends on what good way Barcelona can come up with to deal with Manchester City, but according to my understanding of Tito Vilanova, he shouldn't be able to think of any special tactics, well, or whoever deals with Manchester City with Ye Xin but playing bus tactics, it is extremely difficult to come up with a special way to win, and the only way for Barcelona may be the same as Bayern's Joseph Heynckes"
"What's the solution?"
"Well, in fact, it's not a solution, it can only be regarded as a helpless move, that is, to press it all up"
And then Barcelona really went all the way up.
It's another 10-0-0 and 0-0-10 matchup.
It's a good time, Mancini nodded secretly, at this time Barcelona's actions were exactly the same as he expected, but even so, he was not very proud, after all, Barcelona's tactical ideas can be guessed by anyone with a little football foundation for a while.
Who made them face a Manchester City with leaves?
So when Barcelona really pressed all the way as Mancini said before the game, the Manchester City players who were a little nervous just now suddenly fell a big stone in their hearts.
After all, Barcelona is an old powerhouse, but it is not comparable to a team that has not even touched the Champions League champion, although Manchester City is also known as a star team in the Premier League, but it depends on who it is compared with.
If it is compared with Norwich and Wigan Athletic in the Premier League, then of course it is a team full of big names, and compared with Chelsea or Arsenal, it can be regarded as a strong team, but compared with the current La Liga king, Manchester City is still a little weak, and in their eyes, it is at most a quasi-first-class team.
When the strong meet the weak, they have incomparable self-confidence, and when the weak meet the strong, they often lack confidence.
At this time, Barcelona is naturally the strongest, and Manchester City is naturally the weaker.
So when Manich's tactical preparation was completely targeted, the mentality of the Manchester City players was able to pull back a game.
Now they just have to do what Mancini says.
Buses are the foundation.
Wrapping Messi to prevent him from breaking through is the guideline.
As for the rest, City's players believe that their chain defence, which they have worked on for many years, is still very good with the addition of bus tactics.
And the truth is exactly as they imagined, although Barcelona and Bayern used the same all-line pressing tactics, there were not many chances on the field.
A boring game seems to be playing out again in front of people all over the world.
The Barcelona fans in the stands at Camp Nou also seemed to have a vague sense that something was wrong, and they were working harder to cheer up the home team.
It's just that no matter how big their momentum is, Barcelona still have nowhere to talk about Manchester City's bucket formation, but even so, they still haven't given up, because their heroes on the pitch haven't given up.
……
Messi can't remember how many times he's been trapped.
He just remembered that whenever he got a football, City would always have two people to block him, and their non-stop-the-ball caution meant that he always had to try to make another pass in search of opportunities.
It's just that in the face of Manchester City's contraction-type play, the penetration of short passes on his side has lost its usual effect at all, and football is often broken after only two or three passes, although his side is not at a loss in terms of numbers, but compared to the strong and card position, Messi has to admit that Manchester City is actually better than Barcelona in this.
As for the long pass or something, Barcelona didn't think about it at all, their core idea is to follow the ground ball to create confusion, after all, compared to height, Messi doesn't think that his side of the front line can take any advantage of Manchester City, especially his own ......
So after trying a few passes, Messi decisively gave up this ineffective style of play, and he began to carefully observe Manchester City's formation and the position of the players.
