Although there was wind and rain in the game, the rain was not heavy, and the drainage system at the Camp Nou was very good, and the technical team itself also paid attention to this, so Real Madrid and Barcelona were not too affected by the weather and the venue.

However, Barcelona are eight points ahead of Real Madrid in points, and they will not be in a hurry mentally.

Therefore, the attitude of the game is extraordinarily calm.

They started passing the ball, as if they were endlessly trying to carry it out to the end!

Vertically, horizontally, repeatedly tearing apart Real Madrid's defence with short passes, medium and long distance passes.

As long as the opponent's pass enters the danger zone, then the defender will take foul action, and in order to make the referee "not accountable", even for Messi, the most threatening Messi in Barcelona, Real Madrid's defenders are also taking turns to go up, and not a player will foul in a row.

Barcelona had a gradual increase in the number of shots on goal.

In the 6th minute of the game, Abidal shot wide from outside the box.

Three minutes later, Alves' long-range shot was directly confiscated by Casillas.

Barcelona seems to be a whole army, but it doesn't give people the impression of being ruined.

Because they pressed Real Madrid's formation into a tight space in the middle and back.

After all, they are too skillful in passing.

Frequently kicking the ball, if Real Madrid's formation does not shrink, I am afraid that it will not be able to stop the opponent's passing and cutting attack after the sudden acceleration!

Real Madrid's offense was very difficult, and Barcelona's high pressing made Real Madrid's play more demanding after switching from defense to attack.

The distance between teammates was too close, and Barcelona's aggression on the spot was also high. Real Madrid's players are hesitant to play the ball. It is possible to concede a goal in the middle of the field and cause a big disaster. In the end, the quality of the ball selection was not high, and it turned into frequent mistakes or direct big kicks to clear the ball and return the ball to Barcelona.

Although Qin Xiong has analyzed many of Barcelona's games this season, he can only experience the strength of Barcelona's skills and tactics when he plays against them in person!

A FOOTBALL TERM THAT IS NOT UNFAMILIAR TO SPANISH FOOTBALL IS SPREADING TO THE WHOLE WORLD: TIKI-TAKA!

Barcelona is like a Spanish bullfighter, constantly teasing the angry bull and then slashing the throat when the bull is exhausted!

Barcelona's third-tier players were active and effective in their movements, making quick short passes with great ease, even if they pressed high immediately after conceding the goal, and they pressed Real Madrid into their own half. It's hard to move forward!

Barcelona fans at Camp Nou are proud!

They watched the "Catalan army" play the "nobility of Madrid" on the pitch, what else is needed?

Goals, of course!

In the 18th minute of the game, Messi cut the ball into the middle on the right side, and after getting rid of Van der Vaart, he paused in front of Guti and pulled the ball back to shake off Guti's pressing, and then crossed the ball across the middle, Iniesta ran and shook Gago, and Xavi, who was inserted behind, touched the ball and was a straight stopper!

Andres Iniesta cuts diagonally into the box and shoots with his feet!

Casillas, who blocked the near corner of the goal, blocked the ball with one palm.

Barcelona didn't take advantage of this great opportunity!

But looking back at Real Madrid's overall defense, it was already a bit of a mess.

Qin Xiong actively participated in the defense, but it was impossible for him to run faster than his opponent in passivity. It's mainly a question of timing.

Barcelona's passing imagination exceeded his expectations.

Because the whole team is actively running, there will naturally be more options for the ball. Then the diversion of their offense will become unpredictable!

This is a very different Barcelona from the Rijkaard era!

The Rijkaard era has only maximized the energy of the stars, and when the stars are unable to make a difference, the team's record has dropped significantly.

Pep Guardiola's Barcelona will take the potential and talents of the whole team as the core strength, and finally burst out with immeasurable combat effectiveness!

Although the role of the star and the overall strength of the team cannot be said to have the upper hand or black and white, it is in the long run.

The previous generation of Rijkaard's Barcelona was only a moment, and this generation of Pep Guardiola's Barcelona is a forever!

That's why Cruyff, the godfather of Barcelona, is supporting Pep Guardiola, whose descendants are living up to his great ideals!

Qin Xiong is no longer like a shadow striker, he often returns to the back line to stand between Gago and Guti to defend, otherwise, Barcelona frequently shifts laterally to attack, the space in the middle is too big, one Iniesta plus one Xavi is enough for Real Madrid to be worried, if you add Messi, who is arranged by Guardiola and sometimes creates a threat in the middle, Guti and Gago are not blown into scum It is a miracle in the world!

Barcelona are shaping the attacking situation with quick short passes, forcing Real Madrid's attacking players to be very deep even when they have the opportunity to rush forward, so that they can shoot from distance with impunity, plus players cut inside the box to form an anti-offside position, and play a subtle combination of passes and runs with their teammates.

It wasn't until the 24th minute that Real Madrid got their first shot of the game!

It is hard to imagine that the Blancos, who had the most attacking firepower in Europe last season, would end up in such a dismal situation after half a year.

And the shot was still from Van der Vaart's long-range shot on the periphery, very reluctantly, and the football rolled straight out of the bottom line.

Qin Xiong paid attention to observing the details of Barcelona's attack while constantly running and defending.

In the 27th minute of the game, Messi was blocked by Qin Xiong in the middle, but the football stumbling was still controlled under his feet, and Messi swung his legs and volleyed in place under the defense of Qin Xiong and Gago.

The ball hit Metzelde's back and bounced off the line.

Barcelona were awarded a corner.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Qin Xiong called Robben, Raul, and Van der Vaart to the front and whispered to them: "The player with the most passes and touches in the Barcelona midfield is Xavi, he is the core of the organization, concentrates his forces, and surrounds him!" ”

When the three of them heard this, they immediately nodded and agreed.

Everybody is a smart player with a very high ball quotient.

Qin Xiong said that if he concentrated his forces to surround Xavi, then it would definitely not be two or three players who were directly attached to Xavi, so they would naturally do what they should do, but when the time came, they would take all risks to encircle and suppress Xavi 1

Barcelona's corner kick, tactical corner, Alves crossed after receiving at 45 degrees, the football was cleared by Metzelde's header, and Qin Xiong's header relay in the middle gave the ball to Raul.

But as soon as Raul chested the ball, Puyol behind him came up and stretched out his foot to poke the ball forward, Xavi ran back to meet it, and Barcelona continued to control the ball.

In less than 30 minutes of play, Barcelona had more than 70% possession! (To be continued.) )
