Accompanied by the Valencia team song "Hymn to Valencia" played on the live radio, the moment the players from both sides of the game walked into the stadium with the referee from the players' tunnel, the Mestalla Stadium erupted in huge cheers.

Among them, Iroh, who wore the captain's armband, received the most cheers.

Iroh subconsciously looked up, and the fans in the stadium used their own strength to create a different kind of frenzied atmosphere.

I saw the white and orange mosaic plates pieced together into the Spanish spelling of the Valencia Club, which looked extraordinary.

The atmosphere created by the Mestalla Stadium, which can accommodate 56,000 fans, is naturally not comparable to that of the Bernabeu and Camp Nou, but it also has a small advantage.

The sound can be transmitted back and forth on the four walls of the stadium, which is easy to disperse, giving more psychological pressure to the visiting players who come to the stadium.

There were nearly 6,000 away fans who came to the Mestalla in this game, accounting for about 1/10 of the fans, which means that the home team still has a lot of tickets for Barcelona fans.

Compared to the 3,000 tickets that Barcelona left Valencia fans in the first half of the season, Valencia is really generous.

Although Barcelona fans make up a tenth of the crowd, they can't make any noise compared to the home team's Valencia fans.

Feeling the cheers from the stands, the Valencia fans on the field were holding their breath.

This game must be won for yourself and for the fans in the stands.

With Valencia and Barcelona just four points separating them, the league table lead is particularly important as the number of league rounds dwindles and the Champions League knockout rounds rekindle.

According to Valencia's schedule, there are only three days between this season's Copa del Rey final and the 33rd round of the league at home against Real Madrid, and more importantly, if Valencia can reach the Champions League semifinals, then Real Madrid's league is the first leg of the Champions League semifinals.

If the points gap is not big enough, then the pressure on Valencia is very high.

It will be the league that will be sacrificed to win the Copa del Rey and qualify for the Champions League final.

In other words, if you play Barcelona at home in this round, you must win the game.

However, the desire to win the game is mutual, and Barcelona can't wait to get the three points, and close the gap between them while avenging the first half of the league season.

Simply stand in a row and shake hands with each other before the game to signal friendship first and competition second.

The on-site director gave the camera to Barcelona starter Sergio Busquets in a very allegorical way, and gave a close-up, and he seemed to know that interesting shots were going to happen.

Sure enough, Valencia, led by Elo, chose to ignore Busquez, who stretched out his right hand.

The on-site commentator who saw this scene was stunned for a moment, and then said excitedly: "Oh? Valencia captain Iroh directly ignored Busquets who stretched out his right hand! The same goes for the rest of Valencia that followed!! Ha ha...... I believe that Busquets must be very embarrassed at this time. ”

Indeed, Busquets' white face immediately turned from white to red, and then from red to black......

Valencia's No. 1 sports commentator Hyde said excitedly: "Well done! That's how this kind of player should be treated if he doesn't have a sportsman's spirit! If you can...... I didn't want to see him at all! ”

La Liga commentator Howe chuckled: "Although Iroh's approach is not good, it is also within the rules allowed, and Busquets' flying tackle and slap on David Villa in the first leg are both unforgivable!" ”

Only the Catalan commentator pouted and criticized the approach of the Valencian players: "What an uncultured person, don't you know that friendship comes first?" It's amazing that such a team can hold the top of the league table for a long time! ”

His teammates had to pretend they didn't see what happened to Busquets, after all, he was at fault in the first place.

Coupled with the valencia in the stands raising their arms and shouting, the 6,000 Barcelona fans who came with the team could only shake their heads secretly.

Fortunately, the venue for this game is Mestalla, and if he is at Camp Nou, then Busquets, who is shaking hands, will be stunned in place and crash in the back.

Back to the point, after the Valencia players ignored the handshake by Sergio Busquets, it was immediately followed by the captains of both sides going to the referee to guess the ball.

Due to Puyol's absence due to injury, the captain of Barcelona in this game is the brain Xavi.

This time Iroh had good luck and lost the right to pick the edge and get the tee-off.

Even so, Valencia didn't start the game well.

Barcelona were clearly well prepared for the trip to Mestalla, with captain Puyol out injured, and there was a major shift at the back.

Their usual four-three-three formation also changed to four-four-two, with Mascherano in the midfield position being moved to the central defensive position, partnering Pique in two central defences.

The two full-backs were Maxwell and Alves.

Keita was added to the midfield position when Mascherano moved to central defence, alongside Sergio Busquets in a back two, with Xavi and Andres Iniesta the other two central midfielders.

The two strikers are Messi and Pedro.

Although Barcelona's midfield combination for this game is new, Busquets and Keita's back duo has been outstanding.

With five minutes to go, Valencia, who were playing at home, had just one chance created by Elo, who found a good chance on the left side of the box to swoop in with a deflected shot.

Valdés was very focused at the time, and jumped sideways to block the ball off the line.

Instead, Barcelona played two brilliant quick counter-attacks, with Andres Iniesta, Messi and Pedro all having a certain amount of pace, and Valencia's defensive system struggled to keep up as they switched from attack to defence.

Defender Javi Martinez is tall and has long legs and covers a large area, but his pace is too slow to erect an effective defensive barrier in front of the centre-backs.

Therefore, Ancelotti got up and went to the sidelines of the pitch to direct the game before his ass was hot in the dugout.

As a team with a unique style of world football today, it is almost impossible to limit, and many teams choose to stick to the bus, but often this choice is counterproductive.

If they choose to recycle, then the team will feel more pressure.

So Ancelotti's adjustment is not on the defensive end, but on the offensive end.

He took advantage of a dead-ball opportunity to call Cazorla to his side and ask him to focus more on the offensive end than on the defensive end.

The second is to ask Iello and David Silvado to switch places, Maxwell has become slower as he gets older, and he is a player like Iroh who can be bullied at will......

With Carlo Ancelotti's adjustments, Valencia's attack has been strengthened and the problems in the defensive end have been resolved.

The on-site director has a lot of expertise, and he can see the changes in Valencia at a glance, so he took advantage of a dead ball opportunity to turn up the position specifically aimed at Ancelotti.

Seeing this, on-site commentator He Wei said: "It seems that the master tactician is the master tactician, who has a very accurate grasp of the changes in the situation on the field, and adjusts the first time there is a problem in Valencia." ”

Maxwell is a weakness for Barcelona, who has just turned 30 and has a clear disadvantage in speed.

It was a bit difficult to face the impact of David Silva, so he had to eat dust in the face of the impact of the speed maniac Elo, and in order to avoid the team's defensive mistakes on his own end, he had to use his hand movements to make up for the lack of defensive ability.

Now it was Barcelona's turn to worry Pep Guardiola, who stood on the edge of the visitors' coach's command zone with a frown.

At this time, the on-site director also gave him a close-up.

The Barcelona local commentator said with a serious expression: "Pep Guardiola has to change his defense on the left side, otherwise when Ai opens a bigger gap here, that's when the team concedes a goal." ”

As soon as the words fell, Keita predicted the ball from Juan Mata to the right and cut off Elo's pass to the right, and then passed to Sergio Busquets, another central defender, who played the ball to Xavi.

Cazorla rushed to Xavi with the ball at the first time, but he was too strong and was shaken off by Xavi's clever stop on the spot, and handed the ball to Andres Iniesta, who had just crossed the halfway line.

As he ran back, Xavi Martinez saw the ball roll towards Iniesta, and he subconsciously fell to the ground to block Xavi's pass.

However, Xavi's pass was powerful and Javi Martinez's fall did not reach the ball.

A loud exclamation erupted from the scene

As Xavi Martinez fell to the ground and failed to block the ball, Iniesta, who had the ball, and Messi and Pedro, who were running, faced the entire Valencia back line in an instant.

Even fans who don't understand football can tell from the visual impact that Valencia's defense will be very dangerous.

With Xavi Martinez out of a defensive position, Godin, the centre-back closest to Iniesta, stepped in, while the other three defenders, Jordi Alba, Albiol and Cesar Azpilicueta, were nervously eyeing Pedro and Messi.

Messi attracted two defenders.

However, it was Sabre Pedro who ran out of space, and his movement immediately attracted Iniesta's attention, and he directed the ball towards Pedro's running path, giving the Valencia defenders the illusion that he was going to pass the ball to Pedro!

Godin picked up his pace and defended Andres Iniesta forward.

However, with two meters still two meters from Godin, Iniesta directly slammed the ball to the left with the inside of his right foot, shook off the angle, and stealthily passed the ball to Messi with the outside of his right foot.

Iniesta's pass to Pedro in a dress, the smash and the covert pass basically happened between lightning and flint, so much so that Albiol, who defended Messi, did not react.

The Mestalla Stadium erupted in loud boos, showing the fear of the home fans.
