Chapter 635: The Critical Role of Key Players
For Pique's foul, Barcelona's commentary was naturally praised, because in that case, there was no other way to stop Ronaldo's breakthrough than a foul.
Although Ronaldo may be slightly worse than Lin Yu in terms of threat, don't forget that this man has scored a lot of goals against Barcelona, and if he is given the opportunity, he will dare to score, so Pique knows that he must stop Ronaldo and stop it at all costs, otherwise conceding the goal so early will be very detrimental to the whole situation of the team.
The Barcelona fans at the scene also gave Pique warm applause and cheers, and despite seeing the blood on Ronaldo's legs, these people still booed Ronaldo, although the boos could not affect Lin Yu, but it should still have a little effect on Ronaldo.
However, Pique's foul obviously angered Real Madrid's players, who were already under a lot of defensive pressure, but now seeing that the opponent's foul is so serious, Real Madrid's players' actions have become bigger.
Speaking of pressure, Real Madrid is no smaller than Barcelona, if this game is lost, it will be a heavy blow to Real Madrid, which is bent on winning the championship, and there will be doubts about the joining of Lin Yu and Lippi, because in the eyes of fans, Lin Yu is coming, that is to win, if it is still like losing to Barcelona before, then what is the use of Lin Yu?
What's more, the points are so delicate now, as long as Real Madrid wins Barcelona, it can immediately rise to first place, and if it loses, it will drop from third to fourth, the gap is so big.
The reason why Lippi chose Khedira instead of Modric in midfield is to enhance the interception ability of the midfield, and he also knows the breakthrough ability of Messi, Iniesta, Fabregas and others. They must not be given any chance.
A sharp attack is a guarantee to ensure a goal, but a tough defense. But it is a guarantee to make yourself invincible.
……
Khedira, like Benzema, also after Raul Soros became president. Players returning to Real Madrid from Arsenal have the feeling that Raul Soros is overturning some of the decisions of the Florentino era.
Originally, Soros even wanted to bring Mesut Ozil and Coentrão back to Real Madrid, but unfortunately Arsenal and Chelsea refused to let them go.
is the return of Khedira, it is also a twist and turn, if it were not for Soros's promise to loan Morata to Arsenal next season, Wenger would really not let go, after all, Khedira's role in Arsenal is still quite obvious.
Of course, returning to Real Madrid is also the will of Khedira himself. He felt that there was no hope of winning the Champions League at Arsenal, so he wanted to return to Real Madrid, but he was helpless to leave at the beginning, but now he is back, but he is bent on making contributions.
So in today's game, he worked very hard, and he really caused a lot of trouble for Iniesta and Messi.
However, God bless Real Madrid, Barcelona obviously didn't have many chances, but they scored one step earlier than Real Madrid.
The first half was played in the twenty-ninth minute. The silence was broken by Neymar, who wanted to shoot himself after receiving a pass from Cesc Fabregas, but was blocked by Raphael Varane, who stepped forward to make a follow-up shot. Even if Casillas was in good shape, the ball would not have been able to save because it was so close. And Neymar's clever shot went directly to the corner, and he could only look at the ball and sigh. There is no other way.
'It's bad, behind at Camp Nou. Real Madrid's future is uncertain! ”
"Although Real Madrid had significantly more chances on goal than Barcelona in the first half, it was Barcelona who scored first, which really annoyed many Real Madrid fans."
"It is said that Barcelona is not as good as before, but looking at today's game, it seems that they have found the shadow of their Cosmos team again."
Lippi didn't have any expression on his face, but his heart began to get nervous, although he had expected such a bad start, but when this situation happened, he was still very depressed, but what could he do about it, the opponent's goal had become a fact, and all he had to do was pin his hopes on the lightning trident.
The TV camera also seems to have captured the expressions of Lin Yu, Ronaldo and Bale respectively, intentionally or unintentionally.
Ronaldo and Bale's faces were a little helpless and regretful, but Lin Yu's face was still full of smiles, as if playing football would always be a happy thing for him, and nothing could make him nervous.
Now the three of them have become the hope of all Real Madrid fans, and whether they can reverse and win depends on the performance of the three of them.
……
When the camera swept to Lin Yu's face, seeing Lin Yu's smile, a commentator who supported Barcelona said such a sentence: "Pretend!" ”
Yet only three minutes later, he blushed at the words.
Lin Yu has scored! Just three minutes after Neymar's goal, he also scored the equaliser.
Around the 32nd minute, Cristiano Ronaldo burst on the wing, went straight past Alves, and then quickly cut inside to shoot, the ball went over the backline, but was saved by goalkeeper Valdés.
However, Valdés' save did not save the ball very far, and the ball still fell in the penalty area, at this time, Lin Yu suddenly rushed to the goal, grabbed Pique, and stabbed the ball into the goal.
In order to prevent Lin Yu from shooting, Pique even kicked Lin Yu's calf directly to the facebone, so Lin Yu was also kicked to the ground by him after the shot.
At this time, Pique was very nervous, he secretly glanced at the referee, and he was really afraid that the referee would show him a yellow card, because in that case, two yellows would turn into one red, and he would go straight off the field.
Fortunately, the referee didn't seem to see his foul and didn't punish him in any way, perhaps because Lin Yu scored the goal.
Lin Yu was kicked in the calf and faced the cheekbone, obviously feeling a pain, but at this time he didn't have time to care about the pain, seeing the ball in, he just ran to the side of the court excitedly, and then jumped up and waved his fist fiercely, which was a demonstration to the fans in Barcelona.
In front of the TV, the originally worried Real Madrid fans roared excitedly at this time. It's like someone who hasn't eaten for a few days and suddenly sees something delicious.
Many TV stations that support Real Madrid also made the loudest commentary at this time.
"Lin Yu-! Beautiful goal! "This is the cry of Madrid TV. When Barcelona scored before, the commentary of this TV station was very depressed and depressing.
But it's the same with them. Many TV stations that support Real Madrid firmly believe that Lin Yu can score goals and firmly believe that Lin Yu can equalize, so they have long prepared the commentary after Lin Yu's goal, but they didn't expect to be able to use it so soon.
"Even though it's not a pretty goal, it puts Real Madrid back on the safe side so that they don't lose their fighting spirit prematurely, which is definitely a great thing for Real Madrid!"
"It's an equalizer! It was Lin Yu who scored the goal! Sure enough, it's still Lin Yu! ”
"Critical game! Crucial goal! ”
This is Lin Yu's 19th league goal since joining Real Madrid. You must know that this is the thirteenth round of the league, and if this trend continues, Lin Yu will steadily win the honor of the top scorer in La Liga! ”
"In the past we could only rely on Cristiano Ronaldo, but now, we have another player who can make Barcelona cry, and he is Lin Yu!"
"Barcelona's joy is only three minutes, Lin Yu's response is too fast and too powerful!"
"In the first half, Real Madrid were scoreless. Their lightning trident is really powerful, but it's a pity that they haven't been able to score, but now, it's finally on the right track! ”
"Lippi should be happy. Yes, he was very happy! ”
The camera focused on Lippi and found that Lippi had already given up on the poker face at this time. Instead of excitement and excitement, he waved his fists and roared on the sidelines. Not at all like an old man who is about to retire.
Lippi was very calm during the AFC Champions League, and that was because the weight of the AFC Champions League was really not good. But the level of the Champions League and La Liga, it is completely different, especially this is a national derby, it is related to his career and future, if he can't win this game, his future will be bleak.
So his excitement is actually very well founded.
On the field, Ronaldo had already hugged Lin Yu, and Bale jumped directly on Lin Yu's back.
This goal was scored by Ronaldo's inche shot that caused Valdés to get out of his hands, and then Lin Yu scored with a supplementary shot, although it cannot be regarded as Ronaldo's assist, but this goal definitely has Ronaldo's credit, so he is naturally very happy.
Messi spat on the ground, looking a little annoyed, he hadn't scored yet, but Lin Yu had taken the first step on his turf, which made him a little unhappy.
……
Although Pique escaped, he is still very depressed, and he is really responsible for the goal just now. In fact, as early as when Ronaldo shot, he was ready to block, when Valdés got out, he was closest to the landing point of the ball, as long as he kicked out, he was able to clear the ball, but he never expected that Lin Yu's reaction was so fast and his movements were so agile that he couldn't react at all.
When he wanted to kick the ball out, Lin Yu had already touched the ball, and in desperation, he could only choose a bad foul action, but even if he had kicked Lin Yu, it didn't make any sense, Lin Yu had already stabbed the ball into the goal.
It is not the first time that Pique and Lin Yu have played head-to-head, in addition to last season's Champions League final, they have played each other several times before, but it seems that every time, Pique has been miserable by Lin Yu.
Before the start of this season, Pique conducted special training for himself, he felt that his strength was much stronger than before, and he should be able to deal with players like Lin Yu, who knew that in the end it would be useless, he was getting stronger, Lin Yu was also getting stronger, and Lin Yu's speed of becoming stronger seemed to be far beyond him, and there was no way to catch up.
No wonder most of the media recognize Lin Yu's status as the world's No. 1 player, and his current threat is indeed greater than Messi's.
Seeing Lin Yu and the Real Madrid players celebrating there, Pique's heart was dripping blood, but what could he do? He has already made even the worst fouls, but the other party seems to be a nobody, what else should he do?
Now Lin Yu is so hateful, but there is no way to deal with it, and Pique is almost in a desperate mood.
What defenders are most afraid of is losing confidence, once they lose confidence, they will feel awkward in what they do, let alone defending Lin Yu, even if they are defending Ronaldo and Bale, there will be problems too.
So at this time, Pique thought about Puyol, who had been by his side in the past, what would he do if he were replaced by his old captain Puyol?
He turned his head to look at the bench, and Puyol looked over to him, then smiled meaningfully at him.
Pique also smiled, he felt that he was really frightened by Lin Yu, in fact, if you think about it carefully, although Lin Yu is terrible, it has not yet reached the level of invincibility, otherwise, every time he breaks through, wouldn't he be able to score goals? However, this is not the case.
Lin Yu also had times when he failed to break through, and there were times when he made a mistake in shooting, but when he was dazzling, it was so dazzling that people almost completely ignored his mistakes.
"Come on Lin Yu, I'm not afraid of you!" Peake said to himself secretly.
It was as if he really heard his voice, and Lin Yu, who was in the midst of celebration, suddenly turned his head to look at him, and also showed a meaningful smile. (To be continued......)
