When Rongguang dribbled the ball into the Barcelona penalty area, in fact, there was no suspense, and perhaps a small number of people were still lucky. Then the next shot of glory shattered their luck.

The soccer ball flew into the goal and swirled around the net.

Valdés, on the other hand, fell to the ground and looked back desperately at the ball in the goal.

The glory of the goal ran to the corner flag area and then came a slide in front of the cheering Manchester City fans.

The cheers of the Manchester City fans were like volcanic eruptions, pouring in from all sides of the stands, drowning him.

“ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONGOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL！！！”

John Mortenson growled in a long voice.

"Man City take the lead 1-0! The game was only six minutes underway! Even if it is at his home stadium, this start is probably something that many Manchester City fans did not expect, right? It was City's first attack of the game, the first shot on goal! It's a goal! Barcelona must be crying now, they laid siege to the Manchester City goal for five minutes, passed no less than 30 kicks back and forth, and finally used Messi's personal breakthrough to be a little bit closer to the goal. Just as they were gearing up to make a comeback...... Glory scored first! ”

Alan Hansen laughed happily because this qiē was really interesting.

The murderous and determined Barcelona did not score first, but let Manchester City score first......

"Glory is simply Barcelona's nemesis!" He Ping said excitedly. "I think Barcelona must have regretted that they had gone back on their word and tore up the agreement when they had reached an agreement with Glory's agent. If they had brought in glory, Barcelona would have been the most feared at the beginning of the 21st century, and they would have completely dominated world football...... But now, they can only be ruled! ”

The TV broadcast cut a close-up of Messi.

Also broke through with the ball, Messi's final shot was a fraction of a millimeter off goal and missed the goal.

And the glorious dribbling eventually becomes a score.

This shot is very interesting, and it seems to tell the audience - this is the gap between Messi and glory!

Messi in the camera is frowning and looking grim.

Glory's goal was actually quite a big blow to him.

The glory was like a high mountain towering in front of him, so that he always thought that he would soon be there, but after running for an unknown amount of time, when he looked up, he found that the mountain was still standing quietly in front of him, not becoming more distant, but also not getting closer.

It's really desperate...... It's as if all your hard work, running with all your might, is just standing still.

When Messi sweated desperately in every training session, trying his best to suppress his inner desire for barbecue, coke and food, just to be able to catch up with Glory, he found that Glory ran faster than himself.

It really makes people feel -- what are you trying so hard for?

The celebration of the Manchester City players did not last long, and they did not give the Barcelona siege referee a chance to protest that City had been celebrating for too long.

With less than a minute, the City players ended their celebrations and returned to their respective positions.

City are confident now. Perhaps before the game, various public opinion would have felt that Manchester City was nervous when they met Barcelona.

But in reality, they all guessed wrong. Knowing that their semi-final opponents were Barcelona, the reaction of the Manchester City players could be summed up in one word – "oh".

No surprises, no surprises, no excitement, but no fear.

It's very bland, just like the other opponents they meet, anyway, when they meet an opponent, they will be defeated, it's so simple.

In the past two seasons, Manchester City and Barcelona have played each other very frequently, so the players of Manchester City know Barcelona very well, and because they understand, there is no fear.

The "Invincible Cosmos", which is very terrible in the eyes of others, has been defeated at the feet of Manchester City three times in a row, what do you say Manchester City has to be afraid of?

They are confident of beating such a team and reaching the final.

That's why Ibrahimovic was surprised by the caliber of media opinion when he was interviewed.

Everyone is talking about Barcelona's revenge, why doesn't anyone say that this is another Manchester City beating Barcelona?

It is indeed a hanging, three encounters, Manchester City scored nine goals, conceded only two, won all three games, and won 100% against Barcelona......

In fact, before the game, the Manchester City players also expressed their confidence.

It's just that in the environment of the war of words at that time, the confidence expressed by Manchester City's players was more interpreted as "psychological warfare against Barcelona", which was all bluff and not real confidence.

But it doesn't matter, just like glory, if you don't believe what I say, or are not satisfied, then I will not explain more, I will directly prove to you what I just said with practical actions.

The game continued as Barcelona conceded a goal and launched a fierce counter-attack towards Manchester City's goal in an attempt to equalise in the shortest possible time.

It would also be nice to get away goals.

In the face of Barcelona's onslaught, Manchester City returned to their previous defensive posture.

Almost everyone returned to their own half and was involved in defense.

Ibrahimovic at the top of the field is also behind the centre circle.

Glory and Kaka also retreated deeply.

They weren't worried about the speed of the personnel going up when they counterattacked, because both Rongguang and Kaka were super fast people.

They also have David Silva, an underrated talent in the light of superstars, who is also super capable of fighting alone.

With so many good cards, it is also the reason why Manchester City's side can safely shrink their defense and not have to worry about the problem of quick counter-attacks.

After conceding the goal, Barcelona's passing speed increased, and it was no longer like the previous slow back and forth, which made people want to sleep.

Their passes have also become simpler, with Messi receiving the ball frequently and being actively involved in every aspect of the attack, occasionally switching positions with Andres Iniesta.

But today's Messi is like he doesn't have shooting boots.

His second shot, which was too wide to be saved by Joe Hart, did not pose much of a threat to the City goal.

However, Joe Hart got up and threw the football directly to Kaka, and then Kaka, Glory and Ibrahimovic came back and almost scored again, scaring the Barcelona fans a lot.

'It seems that Manchester City are more comfortable against Barcelona than they were against Real Madrid...... I don't know if it's my delusion. John Mortenson said.

"It's certainly not your delusion, John." Alan Hansen said from the side. "I feel that way too, and Manchester City obviously prefer a team like Barcelona that plays ball-controlled and attacking football. For example, in the Premier League they played Arsenal as well. It's up to their own tactics, and teams that play defensive counter-attacking won't be afraid of teams with high possession and heavy attacking firepower......"

"Isn't Barcelona going to be unlucky?"

"I think...... It's very likely! ”

※※※

Barcelona couldn't hear John Mortensen and Alan Hansen and although they were almost scored by Manchester City, they continued to attack.

Because if they don't attack, there's no other way, and that's all they can do.

If you're going to make them shrink their defenses and play counter-attacks...... Then Barcelona can only shout "The concubine can't do it".

So knowing that continuing to attack would be countered by Manchester City, Barcelona did not change their strategy.

It's just that in the details, they have some fine-tuning.

For example, after conceding a goal, only the Barcelona player closest to the Manchester City player in possession will go up to interfere and press, while the others will quickly return to the defense and do not go up to fight. Before, at least two people went up to round up a Manchester City player.

Now they don't do that, and everyone else is quick to get back in line and organize their defences to avoid being directly penetrated by City's counter-attacks.

In response to Barcelona's adjustment, Manchester City remained unhurried, sticking to their own strategy and style of play.

Anyway, they are one goal ahead, and it is definitely not them who should be in a hurry.

※※※

Until the end of the first half, Barcelona were unable to equalise. Of course, City didn't score either. Barcelona supporters will say that Barcelona managed to stop City from continuing to score in the first half, which looked like a tactical victory for Barcelona, and as long as they stick to that style of play, it will be Barcelona's turn to score in the second half.

But neutrals know exactly what to say about this first half.

It was clear that Barcelona were a failure, not just in their scoreline, but also in the pitch.

Barcelona, which is also known for its strong offensive firepower, couldn't score a single goal in the face of Manchester City's defense......

Of course, this is not a big surprise, as they have only scored two goals in three previous games against Manchester City. So it's normal for Barcelona to score difficult goals against Manchester City.

During the fifteen-minute intermission, commentators and expert commentators from all over the world were interpreting the first half. The result of the interpretation is "Manchester City really deserves to be Barcelona's nemesis".

Barcelona were able to beat Real Madrid 3-1 this season, but they were not able to beat Manchester City.

Some people even wonder if after losing to Manchester City in a row, Barcelona's players have formed a psychological shadow on Manchester City, and they are afraid when they see Manchester City, and this psychology may not even know them...... The desire for revenge that they expressed before the game now seems to be just a bluff from the outside.

In fact, when they saw that the semi-final opponent was Manchester City, they were already panicking.

Such a conclusion is certainly not what Barcelona fans want to hear, but they also can't hear it, and Catalan TV and radio commentators and commentators believe that Barcelona quickly stabilized their position after conceding the goal, and that it was a great success not to let Manchester City continue to score, and they are full of confidence in Barcelona's table.

How could Barcelona fans be upset when they heard such an optimistic analysis?

So the second half began in the optimistic anticipation of Barcelona fans......
