Chapter Forty-Nine: Fierce and Invincible!
Chapter Forty-Nine: Fierce and Invincible!
Barcelona's future talent pool is envious, but that will be a few years from now, and in fact Barcelona today is really frightening.
Shaq has scored only 10 goals in the first five games this season, and the average goal rate per game seems to be not as good as last season, but ...... Barcelona scored a lot of goals!
In five games, the number of goals scored by the Barcelona team was 23, with an average of 4.6 goals per game, this goal rate is really amazing, only 2 goals less than the first five games of last season, but last season's Barcelona was supported by Shaq alone, and now it is very different, Shack's goals have decreased in the proportion of the team's goals, and there is no obvious decline in the number of goals in Barcelona as a whole, which proves that today's Barcelona has more offensive points!
In addition to Shaq, the players who scored in the first five games this season also include Vasquis, Batista, Ganso, Otara, Alba, Rivero and other six, and seven people scored in five games, which is definitely a perfect embodiment of a team's offensive diversity, and such a team is also the most headache for opponents, and they don't know where to focus their defense at all.
In the past, when we played against Barcelona, everyone knew that as long as the defense focused on Shaq, their team could wrestle with this European king, even if they lost the game in the end, it would not be too ugly, but now...... How do you prevent it!?
Both of Barcelona's centre-backs have been able to score, so how can such a team defend against it!?
On September 18, the first round of the Champions League group stage of the new season began, and this year Barcelona was in Group G with Lyon of France, Juventus of Italy, and Copenhagen of Denmark, and Barcelona was a guest at Parken Stadium in the first round.
Despite playing away. But this game is really not difficult for Barcelona, the huge strength gap between the two sides is vividly reflected, only one first half, Barcelona side by Batista, Shaq, Vasquis, Alaba, Rivero, Otara six people scored six goals, in the second half, Shaq, Vasquith completed two goals, and finally beat the Danish champion with a score of 8:0.
With an easy win. Barcelona returned to Spain to host their opponents in the third round of La Liga...... Real madrid!
In the past, the Spanish national derby was always full of suspense, but in the two-legged meeting last season, Real Madrid was completely inferior with 1 draw and 1 loss, plus Barcelona won the "treble", and now it has become the "five crowns", and the gap between the two giants is getting bigger and bigger.
This season, Real Madrid has maintained the consistency of last season and has not changed the manager. did not sell big-name stars, but spent 48 million euros in the transfer market to buy Brazilian left-back Anderson and Argentine central defender Ramon? Bustos has further strengthened his squad and is looking to compete with Barcelona this season.
But Barcelona's ferocity was completely beyond Prandelli's expectations, and just 10 minutes into the game at Camp Nou, Shaq picked up his brother Ben on the left wing? Parker's pass was followed by a clever pass to Vasquith, who rushed inside. Then he himself ran towards the middle of the Real Madrid penalty area.
Vasquiz has become more mature this season, dribbling the ball deeper and deeper into the baseline. Attracted German right-back Andres? Beck, Raphael Varane and the chasing Greek Papadopoulos suddenly sent the ball out of the gap and into the middle of the lane Shak.
Shaq didn't stop the ball, picked up his left foot and "dong", and the ball flew straight into the corner of the upper left corner of the Real Madrid goal!
Casillas, who was standing close to the middle, didn't even manage to get to the position, and just subconsciously jumped in front of the goal......
1:0!
The home team took the lead after just 10 minutes!
After the goal, Barcelona played more calmly. Any brilliant combination can be played, and you can tear apart Real Madrid's defense almost anytime and anywhere on the field, Otara attacks on the right, Vasquiz on the left, and Alaba inserts in the back. Even Cesc Fabregas's long ball can create a threat to Real Madrid, and the absolute initiative on the field makes people look at this game as if they are watching two teams of different levels play against each other.
On 23 minutes, Barcelona won a free-kick at the back of the right, Gonzalo kicked the ball in front of Real Madrid's left penalty area, and Vasquith's quick run allowed him to get the ball in front of Varane.
However, Vasquis's header was not directly on the goal, but ferried the ball to the top of the arc in the middle of the penalty area!
A Barcelona player in a red and blue arrow shirt ran to the spot where the ball landed, picked up his left leg and fired a furious shot!
"Bang!"
Just listening to the loud explosion makes it easy to guess who made the shot...... Sark!
"Whew!"
This time, Shak's angry shot did not choose the "Shaq GOAL" style bombardment, but shot the ball to the lower right corner of the Real Madrid goal, and the ball with the sound of breaking the air at the same time itself also has a fast rotation, and finally drew a small arc, "whoosh" from the bottom right corner of the dead corner to the goalpost drilled into the goal...... 2:0!
Casillas has judged the direction of Shaq's shot, but he can't keep up, the 38-year-old Casillas is actually in good shape, last season for Real Madrid played a total of 55 games and conceded 45 goals, in general is still excellent, but every time he faces Shaq's shot, he finds that he seems to be really old, the body's reaction speed can not keep up with the eyes and brain, this time he is still an arm's length from the ball when he falls to the ground.
The Camp Nou was completely boiling, and when playing on this field last season, Real Madrid scored two goals first, and then Shaq and Vasquez equalized, and finally Barcelona drew 2-2 at home to their bitter rivals.
This season, the situation has changed, and after only 23 minutes of play, his team has a two-goal lead, which cannot but be said to be the result of Barcelona's overall strength.
What makes Barcelona fans even happier is that in the 44th minute of the game, seeing that the first half of the game is about to end, Vasquith cut inside with the ball on the left side, and the German teenager Matthews who followed up in the middle? Müller formed a tacit understanding.
The ball went back and forth between the two men quickly, but it was Muller's well-placed through ball that sent the ball to Real Madrid's left side of the six-yard box, and Vasquith's nimble run allowed him to catch the ball before anyone else.
Facing Casillas, the big brother of the national team, who ran up, Vasquez was not polite at all, and shot directly with his left foot, kicking the ball from under the right armpit of Casillas, who had opened his arms.
"Huh!"
The ball hits the white net behind the goal!
“GOLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
The Camp Nou burst into flames of cheer and everyone jumped up to cheer for Vasquith's goal!
Forty-five minutes...... 3:0!
There is no more relieving and exciting Spanish national derby!
If there is anyone who can compare the popularity of the current Barcelona captain with Shak, there is only one Vasquith.
After all, the Catalans are a nation, and their crazy support for Barcelona is also because this team is Catalonia's own team, although they have given up too much for the sake of results, but once a genius like Vasquez appears in the team, they will be extremely crazy about him, but now Barcelona fans are still very clear that their team is inseparable from Shaq.
In Spain, there are many teams that attach great importance to tradition, such as Athletic Bilbao, who have always insisted on the tradition of using only Basque players, and they are very persistent, which is simply stubborn.
Athletic Bilbao did not bring in reinforcements even when they were threatened with relegation, with more than 80 per cent of fans claiming that they would rather see their team relegated than to see players other than Basques in the squad.
To this day, Athletic Bilbao has not changed their traditions, and they are still the Basque Warriors of the whole team, even if there are no big names in this team, the best one at present is Xavi, who once went to Bayern Munich to play a spin and came back? Martinez, and then there are no more stars worth tens of millions, but last season the team ended up finishing sixth in La Liga, and this season can play in the Europa League.
The score of 3:0 in the first half made everyone on the Barcelona side very satisfied, even if it was only the final score, not to mention that there was a second half of 45 minutes, and the final ...... Who knows how many goals the team will outperform their opponents!?
Everyone was satisfied and relaxed, but this satisfaction seemed to affect the team, and after the start of the second half, when Real Madrid's defense became very fierce and very tight, Barcelona did not play hard.
Everyone can see that Real Madrid has gone crazy, they will never allow Barcelona to score again, the four defenders and midfielders together have received seven yellow cards, and Prandelli has also changed three defenders in a row to ensure that the players still have room for fouls.
In addition, Otara and Alaba on Barcelona's side were all off the field because of shovel injuries, and Barcelona did not fight so hard in this game.
As a result, Barcelona stopped, and Real Madrid found an opportunity to counterattack by Spanish striker Iker? Hernandez sneaks a goal back.
In the end, Barcelona defeated Real Madrid with a score of 3:1 at home, on the surface, Real Madrid retained their last face with an 85-minute goal, but in fact, people who have watched this game know very well that now these two teams have really separated the grades, and Barcelona is definitely not comparable to Real Madrid in the case of normal competition.
Today's Barcelona has really used their ferocious attack to play an invincible momentum! (To be continued......)
