Fifteen minutes of halftime passed quickly, and the fans who had left their seats to buy food on the periphery of the stadium slowly returned to their seats, munching on burgers or drinking Coke, and the cheering and shouting of the first half made them lose a lot of energy, so they seized the time to replenish the energy for the second half of the battle.

Before the start of the second half, neither side made substitutions, and the side changed sides to fight again.

It was Barcelona who kicked off at home, so the plot was not much different from the second half of the first half, and they comprehensively suppressed Valencia.

Barcelona firmly controlled the ball at their feet with super control, and they did not rush to pass the ball forward according to the tactical arrangement formulated by Guardiola, but patiently transmitted it in the midfield and backfield, and waited until the overall formation was completely dispersed before slowly moving forward.

With the exception of Airo and David Villa, all eight of Valencia's players were in their own positions, waiting for Barcelona's attack.

In fact, David Villa's defensive position is also particular, he has to mark the defense in the area where Xavi comes to the center circle arc, and does not let him handle the ball easily, as for passing without the ball is not within his scope of responsibility, after all, he is still a striker, focusing on attack.

Iroh's job is a bit more complicated, not only does he have to hold Alves and Puyol in place, but he also has to run to a good position and wait for a good opportunity to counterattack.

Xavi's playmaking in the middle struggled with David Villa's support, and Iniesta hesitated before dropping back to respond.

But he soon found out that he had a full-time bodyguard by his side - Topal.

Iniesta didn't dare to slack off on this, and he didn't dare to take the ball and turn around by himself, for fear that the tall and long-legged Turk would give him a free kick so far from the goal, even if he fought a free kick in front, it would be useless, so he passed the ball back to Xavi.

Xavi had no choice but to distribute the ball to Maxwell on the left flank, who saw that there was no answering team-mate in front of him, so he had to pass the ball back to Xavi who was leaning in.

In the absence of a way to play the ball forward, Barcelona's possession is basically in the midfield, and there is not much effective space in the midfield.

Seeing this, Ancelotti finally sat in the coach's seat with peace of mind.

Topal and Javi Martinez have increased their range of movement to effectively control Messi, Andres Iniesta and Cesc Fabregas, three attacking players who are not physically strong.

Although it seemed that Barcelona still dominated the field, in reality it was not, and Barcelona's possession was all within the void range, and the home fans in the stands gradually realized that the team was not in full control of the game as it seemed, so the cheers were much quieter.

Ginger is still old and spicy, Ancelotti has long seen that Xavi is the most critical point of this Barcelona team in the game, as long as Xavi is restricted, then it is difficult for Messi or Iniesta, or Fabregas to pose a direct threat in the frontcourt.

Pep Guardiola frowned, if this situation continues, the situation on the pitch will most likely tilt towards Valencia, and someone must be found to relieve Xavi's attacking organiser.

Andres Iniesta or Fabregas retreating?

He immediately dismissed this possibility, so only in the double back here is to use his brains, is it the premise of Busquets's position, or the premise of Mascherano's position?

Obviously, it is undoubtedly Sergio Busquets who is more suitable to be involved in Barcelona's attack, with Mascherano being the better protector at the back.

※※※

Busquets's positional premise was immediate, bringing Barcelona very obvious offensive help, effectively relieving Xavi's organizational pressure, coupled with his ability to shoot the ball in the short and medium distances, he did not drag the ball in the middle at all, and always delivered the ball accurately at the first time.

In this way, Barcelona's attack was booming again.

The cheers in the stands also rose and fell, giving the impression that a goal could be scored at any moment.

However, this is still not the case, Iniesta is closely marked by Valencia defenders, and there is no way to focus on attacking.

The Catalan commentator shook his head and complained: "Since Andres Iniesta assisted Messi to score, he has almost become invisible on the pitch, and he can only see people when he retreats and over-the-tops." ”

So whether it's Xavi or Busquets, they try to pass the ball to Messi.

Fortunately, Messi was as active as ever, and every time he dribbled the ball, he posed a big threat to Valencia.

Seeing Messi's performance, Guardiola, who was standing on the sidelines, had a little comfort.

He wondered, should he sit down and adjust the people on the field?

Then I looked at the time on the big screen, and thirteen minutes had passed in the second half, and it was time to make a substitution.

Llorente and Pedro ran to the warm-up area.

The live director just captured this scene, and immediately switched the camera to the back of Barcelona while the football was being conducted.

"Is Barcelona going to be the first to make personnel changes?" Sky TV commentator Martin Taylor wondered: "It's more normal, they haven't taken the lead for more than ten minutes into the second half, and if it continues, it will also be a blow to the confidence of the players on the pitch, after all, Valencia, who have Ai, only lost once in the first leg of the 2005-2006 Champions League semi-finals...... In Chinese words, it is better to believe that there is something than to believe it......"

"Barcelona have the advantage of the current squad on the field, and if they make any more targeted substitutions, then the home team will not be far from overtaking the score......

Before the words fell, Messi received Fabregas's return ball, rounded his left leg in the run, and Topal subconsciously shoveled it two meters away, but Messi accelerated with a flexible emergency stop, and accelerated past Cazorla, who came over to defend sideways, and suddenly threw a cold arrow at the top of the arc of the big penalty area, Wang Xiaolei tried his best to rub the ball slightly with his fingertips, change the trajectory, and the football rolled out of the bottom line against the right post of the goal.

The stands erupted in a huge exclamation, what a pity......

No one expected Messi to suddenly exert his strength, so they were a little unprepared.

But Messi's succession proved that it was not their lack of preparation, but that they were ...... Messi is too strong.

Valencia's defenders looked very embarrassed in front of Messi, and they even had to use both hands and feet to be able to block the ball at Messi's feet, but this also brought Barcelona a lot of direct free kicks in front of Barcelona.

A few minutes later, Barcelona made their first change of the game, with regular centre-forward Llorente coming on for Cesc Fabregas.

※※※

Llorente's presence on the field represents that Barcelona's attack can become more abundant, he is 1.95 meters tall, not only has first-class header skills, but also has obvious Spanish player imprints on his foot skills, belongs to a striker who can pass and shoot, and his sense of response is very good, often pulled out to Messi or Iniesta to make the ball, completely liberating the offensive pressure of Messi and Iniesta.

If Sergio Busquets' position is premised on bringing an attacking change to Barcelona, then Llorente's presence enriches Barcelona's scoring style.

Messi, Andres Iniesta and Xavi have reconnected, and the attacking threat has naturally skyrocketed.

The number of shots that threatened Wang Xiaolei in the back of the net also increased, and everyone thought that Barcelona's goal was only a matter of time......

Valencia were pressed by Barcelona's attack for several minutes before finally sending the ball forward through a long pass from Javi Martinez to temporarily relieve the pressure on the team's defence.

However, the angle of the long pass was a bit off, and Iroh needed to run around the perimeter to receive the football.

By the time he was about to reach the left corner of the box to control the ball, Alves, the fastest player in the Barcelona backline, was already on the way forward for Aillo.

It didn't take long for Puyol to return to his position, crossing the route where Iroh could cut inside.

In order to be able to control the football at his feet, Iroh went from facing the defenders head-on to facing away from the defenders.

As a result, the home fans erupted in a hoarse boo, believing that Iroh was afraid of conceding the ball, so he crossed his body between the football and the defenders.

It was about two seconds before David Villa and David Silva were up front to attack.

"Hey, there's no more chance to break fast." He Wei shook his head and said.

At this moment, David Villa suddenly sped up and circled in front of Mascherano to meet Elo.

David Silva also slowly moved closer from the edge of the penalty area.

It looks like both are likely to pick up Elloh, who could also give the ball to David Villa or David Silva.

Alves didn't give Elo much room to think, and leaned behind Elo as David Villa circled around.

In order to prevent the ball from being broken, Iroh held Alves with his left elbow and pulled the ball out with the sole of his right foot to prevent Alves from stabbing the ball from behind.

Seeing David Villa getting closer, Alves withdrew his right foot to prevent Ielo and David Villa from hitting the wall or playing the ball for the latter to accelerate into the box.

In response, Iroh pulls the ball back with the sole of his right foot and picks up his right foot.

Alves thought that Eloh was going to pass the ball to David Villa, and he took a small step to the left, ready to get stuck in the passing path of the two in advance.

At the same time, Puyol, who was standing on the inner line, suddenly felt a little familiar and familiar with this scene.

I saw that while Iroh picked up his right foot, there was a small angle shift in the supporting foot.

Could it be...... Cruyff turned around?

This is a completely fresh feint for Puyol, I think he was shaken by Ielo twice in a row!
