Chapter 269: The Wind Direction Has Changed...... (The fourth update, ask for a monthly pass ()!) )
The game restarted after kick-off at Barcelona.
Napoli tasted the sweetness of the goal, so continue their high-flying tactics. Such tactics are not very ornamental in comparison, and in the eyes of many people, they are not very technical.
But it's useless!
If not, how could Napoli equalise?
That's why Napoli continue to play like this, and they don't care if it makes a final unspectatory. A hundred times more ornamental than a champion, which is more important, fools know how to choose. Napoli are under no obligation to sacrifice their championship honours to please the crowd, especially the neutral fans. They are not Barcelona, they can't play well and win the title at the same time.
It's just that this makes Barcelona a little uncomfortable.
Their offense is driven by ground playmaking and is particular about possession. Unless you play around, this kind of attack is still quite time-consuming, and the number of attacks per unit of time is definitely not as good as Napoli's long passes......
And Napoli's midfielders don't need to organise attacks now, so they put all their energy on defending. Barcelona ground advance? That's exactly what they want!
Strictly defend, entangled with Barcelona in the midfield, and fight and retreat, retreat to the 30-meter area and no longer retreat, but can't hold out, no matter how Barcelona passes around, the most important thing is not to lose their position, not to grab the opponent's ball......
Once that was done, Barcelona's attack ran into trouble – they were characterised by using passes and runs to create gaps, tearing gaps in the opposition's already tight defences and then striking a lethal blow!
But what if the opponent doesn't care how you fall your feet, there is no gap in the defensive line?
In addition, Barcelona, who were equalized, were a little angry and wanted to score quickly and take the lead again. But it backfired, and the more they tried to get ahead, the harder it was to get ahead.
Before they knew it, their hearts became impatient......
Napoli's side, just equalized, or equalized with such a beautiful goal, not to mention that they equalized the powerful Cosmos team Barcelona, morale is high, fighting spirit, even if the opponent's offensive is very fierce, the defensive pressure is very high, and suddenly feel that it is no big deal, and they are holding back their strength in their hearts to beat Barcelona.
If you are weak, the opponent's momentum will come up and press you, especially in a game like the Champions League final. So it's okay to lose, but you can't lose the battle and lose the momentum!

Napoli are the kind of team that goes crazy, and it is difficult to press it down, so now it looks like they are a little more threatening than Barcelona......
"Napoli has a long pass at the back...... They recognize this method now, but who told them to have Chen Yingying? The hero has a very high success rate in the header up front, I just did a rough count, he grabbed the first point in all five headers, and his teammates controlled four of them, and finally formed two shots, and one although it didn't form a shot, it already created a huge threat for Barcelona......"
"Napoli's tactics are nothing unusual, but they are very targeted...... It's not pretty, but it works (). I'm starting to worry about Barcelona now...... This final is definitely not as good as they thought it would be. Previously, the Catalan media did a survey and asked Barcelona fans who they would most like to meet in the final, and the result was that the vast majority of them chose Manchester United. At that time, the interpretation of the Catalan media was that Barcelona fans did not like Napoli and did not want them to reach the final. And the hero said that it was Barcelona fans who were afraid of Napoli...... Now it seems that I prefer to believe in the hero's version, because judging from the game, Napoli is really a bit of Barcelona! Thinking about it again, Napoli played Barcelona twice last season, but they were not actually at a disadvantage, losing 2:3 to Barcelona at Camp Nou, but scoring two away goals. Scored at the beginning of the home game, if it weren't for Chen Yingying's inexplicable sent, maybe Barcelona wouldn't even be able to enter the semi-finals...... Now I don't think Barcelona will win this title! ”
Now most of the commentators are starting to worry about Barcelona, and the wind has changed in a single ball. You know, these people were still raving about Barcelona's prowess before, as if there was no one in the world who could stop them from winning the championship.
Unexpectedly, Chen Yingying scored a goal, and everyone fell to the other side. This world is really realistic......
But it is also true, Napoli's performance has given many people hope, in Naples, Italy, many fans who can't go to the stadium to watch the game at home, in bars, in pizza shops, when they see Chen Yingying score, all the previous worries are gone.
For a while, many people suddenly had a pride in their hearts - what is Barcelona? We can win just as much ()!

Ten minutes after Chen Yingying's goal, although Barcelona pressed Napoli most of the time, Napoli's counterattack was sharper and more threatening.
This time, even Pep Guardiola was no longer able to sit in the dugout, and since Chen Yingying equalized, he got up from his seat and walked to the sidelines, and has not returned yet.
frowned, thinking about how to solve the situation on the field.
Judging from the scene, Barcelona's possession rate is still the upper hand, but what is the use of possession at this time? Thunder doesn't rain!
What he wants is not possession, but accuracy, no matter how many shots he takes, he doesn't score in vain.
It's Napoli's side that plays very simply, which gives them a lot of headaches.
Alves and Abidal don't dare to go up and attack now, because Pique and Mascherano can't deal with Chen Yingxing alone, while Cassano and Arshavin are very fast when they counterattack, and if the fullbacks rush up at this time, it is very likely that they will not be able to come back.
But this situation cannot be sustained forever, how can it be solved?
To be honest, he hadn't thought of it yet......
What if I never think of it?
Then drag it out until overtime!
Pep Guardiola has made a decision in his mind. Anyway, he is very confident in Barcelona's physical strength.
Many people say that Barcelona dominates the world because they have two or three decades of youth training foundation, a consistent football tradition, outstanding stars, excellent coaches, and strength...... But they all ignore a very inconspicuous, but perhaps very important, reason (). That's Barcelona's physical strength.
Barcelona's tactics are very demanding on the players' ability to run, they always have to keep running, pass the ball and then quickly run to the next position, even if their teammates don't pass the ball to them, they are not allowed to use the off-ball run to tear up the gaps for the team
When defending, you will often see two or three of them rushing up to chase and intercept the player with the ball. This kind of pressing is very physically demanding.
Barcelona's football is based on running, both offensively and defensively, so if their physical fitness is not good, this team will collapse long ago, and it is impossible to win six titles in one season.
It is precisely because he is very confident in the fitness of his team that Guardiola has decided to wait and see what happens if he can't think of a solution to Chen Yingying and Napoli for the time being. He believes that Napoli's style of play is also very physically demanding, because the Napoli players in the defensive counterattack always have to constantly do sprints from back to front and front to back, which is more physically demanding than Barcelona.
In overtime, as the physical exertion increases, the little energy left will not be able to support them to continue to do this piston run. By that time, what else will Napoli have left with a weak attack? Isn't it a sharp attack that they can rely on the most now? Without attack, Napoli is like a tiger without sharp teeth, just a slightly larger cat, maybe not as scary as a cat......
After making up his mind, Guardiola realized that he had been standing outside for a long time, and he turned and walked back to the dugout.
Assistant coach Villanova asked him, "What?" ”
"It's nothing."
"We're not in a good situation......"
"Yes, so you tell them, let them pay attention to the defense."
Vilanova was quite surprised by Guardiola's words, he originally thought that Guardiola would come up with a solution to the lack of attack after thinking for a long time, but he did think that he would really strengthen the defense...... Isn't that putting the cart before the horse? What we need now is not to not concede a goal, but to score a goal! The sooner we score, the sooner the game will be in our hands......
Seeing the confusion on Vilanova's face, Guardiola tilted his head at him: "You go and do it first, and I'll tell you why you did it when you come back." ”
Vilanova took the order, using his loud voice and gestures on the sidelines to convey Guardiola's instructions, telling the whole team to pay attention to the defense and not let Napoli counterattack take advantage of it.
When he returned, he couldn't wait to find Guardiola: "Say it, Pep. ”
Pep Guardiola tilted his head and looked at the pitch as he explained to his assistant coach. 'Well, if we want to attack, Alves and Abidal have to press, even Piquet and Butzquez have to press all the time to put enough pressure on Napoli and make them collapse...... But now they are very sharp on the counter-attack, if we rush to press, I am afraid that our side has not yet scored, and we have already conceded the goal. Because of that Chen Yingying...... The role of his bridgehead is obvious. He was like a nail in our most critical place, and that made us feel bad. ”
Vilanova nodded, Guardiola is right, Chen Yingying is indeed crucial.
'But we also have the advantage that we are physically better than them because most of the time we are on the ball side and we guide them and they can only run back and forth with our backs and downs, they are depleted faster than us. As long as we can get the game into extra time, I think we have a very good chance of winning this game! ”
