Chapter 29 100 Balls, Is It Difficult?

After the match against Hercules, Barcelona ushered in the first leg of the Copa del Rey semi-final against Sevilla.

Sevilla are a force to be reckoned with in La Liga, definitely a strong team, but only a strong team, for this Barcelona team today, they are not a close opponent, they just need to spend some effort to beat them.

On January 30th, Barcelona in Pez? The Juan Stadium, relying on two goals from Shaq and an own goal from the opponent, led 3-0 in the first half, and it was not until the end of the game that Sevilla were written by their striker Andy? Porro pulled a goal back and Barcelona beat Sevilla 3-1 away to take advantage of the Copa del Rey semi-finals.

The reason why it went so smoothly was because of Simon? Grayson gave the opponent a small surprise, Alaba who formed a midfield triangle with Ganso and Krisetig in the last game, this time appeared in the starting line-up again, but the commitment made by "Brutal Simon" to Cesc Fabregas still validated, and the Barcelona vice-captain also started, and behind the two of them was the experienced Busquets.

Although this triangle combination lacks Ganso's aura and speed, and Krissettig's backfield organization, its control is definitely the strongest in Barcelona at the moment, Fabregas made 35 successful 40 passes in the whole game, Alaba made 37 successful passes in 40, and Busquets made 36 successful passes in 41 times, and the passing success rate of the three people reached an astonishing 89%, which naturally firmly controlled the initiative in the midfield.

In addition, there is a fulcrum in Barcelona's attacking system that is now becoming more and more powerful, and that point is ...... Vasquith!

In the game, Vasquith made only 16 successful passes out of 19. Only eight crosses were successful, but he completed six counter-attacks on the wing, the most important of which was his eight dribbles on the left, completely single-handedly tearing down Sevilla's defence, and one of the assists he gave to Shaq was also from the inside after breaking through the opponent.

With the control of the midfield. Vasquith's breakthrough on the flank, coupled with the containment of the "Little Pharaoh" on the right flank, Shaq, the team's offensive finisher, is really quite easy.

In fact, in addition to these offensive means, Barcelona's assist ability on the wing is also very strong. Parker and Rafael are both extremely strong in assisting, especially Ben? Parker, as Shaq's good brother, has a tacit understanding between the two that is definitely incomparable to others, but there is no need for their two fullbacks to play in this game.

Barça ...... now Powerful and perfect indeed!

It's February, and the winter transfer window is closed. Barcelona, who returned to La Liga, relied on Shaq's hat-trick in the 21st round of the league to beat Malaga 3-1 away.

Pep Guardiola's Atletico Madrid drew 3-3 away at Sevilla in La Liga, and they were unceremoniously replaced by Real Madrid in second place.

It was only at this point in the season that Barcelona extended their advantage in the league to seven points!

In such a fierce competition gradually won, even Barcelona fans also expressed their happiness in the message on the official website, if it were not for the "brutal Simon" led the team to achieve a crazy record of 20 wins, 1 draw and 61 points, even if it was replaced by the "Universe Team" under Guardiola in the past, it may not be able to maintain an advantage in such a fierce battle, after all, Real Madrid, which is currently ranked second in the standings, also has a record of 54 points in 21 games, 17 wins, 3 draws and 1 loss. This has been a great feat in the past, but this season ...... Prandelli and Real Madrid can only be aggrieved to finish second in the standings.

Last season, Sevilla FC won the title with 84 points. This is already the championship with the highest points in La Liga in recent years, and the La Liga League, which was originally full of medical beauty, has become more and more focused on defense in recent years, and the number of goals scored by each team has been decreasing year by year, until the sudden rise of Barcelona this season, and the offensive frenzy has appeared again in La Liga.

Barcelona fans after a discussion on the forum. Unanimous endorsement of Simon? Grayson's contribution to the team, and now the team's captain Shak's ability to lead the team, and then naturally talking about Shaq's goals this season, the results are ......

Everyone was shocked!

Shaq has made a total of 34 appearances for Barcelona this season, scoring ...... goals 99 pcs!

99!?

There are enthusiastic fans who post all of Shaq's goals this season after. Countless Barcelona fans completely knelt down, they saw Shaq score 5 goals in the first game for Barcelona, saw Shaq score 7 goals in the second game, saw Shaq's 18 hat tricks, and many four, five, six, and seven goals!

With 99 goals scored in 34 games, an average of 2.91 goals per game, it's no wonder that Shaq has scored so many hat-tricks!

In addition to these 99 goals, Shaq also contributed 18 assists to his teammates, and the number of goals directly involved reached 117, while Barcelona has scored a total of 159 goals this season, Shaq has been involved in three-quarters of the team's goals, and regardless of him in front, Vasquith, Salomon, Shaarawy, Ganso and others can easily find cover.

Facts have proven that whether he admits it or not, Shaq is indeed Barcelona's indispensable pillar, number one star, and soul at present!

This captain is really ...... Well deserved!

Fans are enthusiastically discussing Shaq's upcoming 100 goals, what way should they celebrate, after all, the fans of the "Red Devils" Manchester United did not hesitate to use financial, material and human resources, and carried buckets of huge red cloth rolls with the team to travel away every time, which was really majestic!

Barcelona fans have always been arrogant, naturally not willing to be subservient, and they do not bother to use the tricks used by Manchester United, they have to come up with some new tricks.

Now the fans of Barcelona have fully accepted Shaq, and Shaq's previous slap of the "godfather" was also seen as a revolution by the fans. And it turned out that such a revolution was indeed needed, and together with his disciples "Simon the Cruel" created a great Barça team, and they are sure to build a dynasty in the next few years.

Even many fans feel that the so-called "Dream Team" and "Cosmos Team" and other titles are an insult to the current Barcelona team, which has only drawn one game so far this season. Undoubtedly, the strongest Barcelona in history.

Not only fans are expecting Shaq to score his 100th goal for Barcelona, but so are Shaq's teammates, and even Cesc Fabregas, the vice-captain, asked Shaq on the training ground about Shaq who was sweating and practicing squat jumps before the team was about to play the second leg of the Copa del Rey semi-final in Sevilla.

"Shaq, tomorrow's game...... You're going to score goals, right? ”

"I don't know."

Shaq replied in the middle of the squat, then jumped up again, leaving Fabregas speechless, and as the time entered the New Year, Shaq suddenly became harder than ever in training. Even...... It can be said that it is crazy and unfatal!

In the past, Shaq was also very hard working in training, he was always able to complete the training plan arranged by the coaches with quality and quantity, and he would often practice, but compared to now, it was like making a game, and now Shaq's efficiency in training is twice as high as the training plan, that is, his training volume is doubled according to the training plan, and even so. Shaq also practices for an hour to two hours a day.

It feels like ...... It's as if Shaq is in a hurry because of something!

Naturally, no one knew what kind of crisis he was facing, except for Shaq himself. His prime is behind him, and from now on he's going to be worse every year, but with enough training, he can slow down his form and make his career longer.

"Shaq, you've scored 99 goals for the team, and you're going to score 100 goals soon!"

"Oh!"

Shaq still didn't stop. Just an "oh" sound, as if it were a trivial matter.

But Cesc Fabregas knew that this should be what Shaq really thought, and in his first two seasons at Manchester United, Shaq scored 126 goals in 64 games for the Reds in his first season. In the second season, 200 goals were scored in 66 games!

Even though the "Red Devils" have experienced a decline in Shaq's goal efficiency in the past two seasons due to a change of manager and various reasons, Shaq still scored 48 goals in 48 games in his third season with Manchester United and 62 goals in 57 games in his fourth season.

Maybe this kind of thing is really too common for Shaq to score 100 goals!

"Ahem! You go ahead and practice, and I'll talk to the others. ”

Cesc Fabregas shook his head with a wry smile, turned his head and walked to Ganso, Alba, and Busquets, who were practicing a quick pass in a triangle, and the starting list for tomorrow's match with Sevilla has been confirmed, and these three will be Barcelona's midfield triangle tomorrow.

Cesc Fabregas wanted to talk to them and make sure they helped Shaq to his 100th goal for Barca, who are at the bottom of Barcelona's list of the top 10 scorers of all time, also have 112 goals, but it is clear that Shaq will not be difficult to surpass him, and it will take less than a season to do so.

As the vice-captain, Cesc Fabregas obviously wanted to help Shaq, but he really underestimated the "king of the ball......

The Camp Nou was full on 6 February, and 103949 fans came to see Shaq's historic goal break in a single season.

It was only 10 minutes into the game, and before Barcelona's powerful midfielder could create a chance for Shaq, Shaq himself created a chance.

When Shaq received a pass from Ganso at the top of the Sevilla penalty area, he was attacked by Sevilla's No. 16 central defender Jorge? Pulido was brought to the ground and the referee awarded Barcelona a free-kick...... A free kick at the top of the arc of a big box!

After the Sevilla players lined up the wall and rubbed for a while, the game time had reached 12 minutes, and then Shaq ran three steps diagonally, and then his right leg was drawn on the ball!

"Tom!"

There was a muffled roar like a cannon roar at the Camp Nou!

The next moment-

The ball turned into a ray of light, passed through the left side of the Sevilla wall, and flew in an instant in front of the bottom left corner of the Sevilla goal!

Sevilla's goalkeeper Julian had already made a leap to the right to make a save, and because of the position of the human wall, his position was also relatively close to this side, but when his body was in the air, he was surprised to find that his speed was ...... It's too slow!

Julian's leap had not yet reached the spot, but the ball had already flown in front of his eyes!

“GOL！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！”

There was a huge cheer at the Camp Nou, and it was a ...... that Shaq's 100th goal came so easily It's so powerful!

Julian threw himself in front of the goal, and there was only one thought left in his head......

It's so fast!

It's so fast!

This is really a shot kicked by a human being!?

No...... Cannonball!? (To be continued......)
