Manchester in early spring is always very rainy, even the roof of the Red Rebels stadium can hardly hide the drizzle in the sky, everyone seems to have just come out of the drum washing machine, wet and uncomfortable. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Rijkaard hung his head and sat in the dugout, not daring to show his face, and although the stands behind him were the area where Barça fans gathered, it was these fans that he feared the most.

In the first leg at the Camp Nou, Barcelona stubbornly defeated the Red Rebels 1-0, although this made Barcelona pay Puyol and Motta, two powerful players, but this gave Barcelona a favorable advantage in the promotion, clean sheet Red Rebels, Barcelona can replace as long as they draw away.

But that's a layman's opinion, and in fact, a 1-0 victory was a difficult choice in the second leg.

"In the course of the game, Barcelona ensured the advantage in technology and ball control, so in the first leg, Barcelona led 1:0, so in the second leg of the Red Rebels Stadium, what tactics will Barcelona adopt to deal with the Red Rebels?"

This is the question asked by the outside media to Rijkaard at the press conference, but as everyone knows, this is also Rijkaard's biggest headache, attacking out, or defending and counterattacking?

Rijkaard defeated the Red Rebels with a beautiful ball control tactic at home, but he didn't dare to guarantee that this tactic would still work on the Red Rebels Stadium, and even Rijkaard was unsure of whether he could defend and counterattack.

Why?

The Red Rebels are so strong, especially the recent Red Rebels, and the momentum is absolutely astounding!

If you are behind on the road, you should take the initiative at home, right?

As soon as Rijkaard thought so, he hesitated with the coaching staff for several days, and finally chose to attack, using Barcelona's own tactics, attacking out, and having a vigorous offensive battle with the Red Rebels, so that as long as Barcelona can score away goals, as long as Barcelona does not lose more than 1 goal, it will be able to advance.

Although Rijkaard did not have much confidence in the defense, when it came to attacking, he felt that he might not necessarily lose to the Red Rebels.

Samuel Eto'o, Pedro, Hleb, Andres Iniesta and Xavi have one of the best attacking qualities in Europe, and Rijkaard is convinced of this.

But he miscalculated one step, that is, if he wants to attack, will the Red Rebels definitely attack?

Mourinho's home tactics were a big surprise, strictly speaking, it should be the tactics of the first half, although the people are still those people, Beckham was defeated by Michael? Johnson was replaced, Drogba was replaced by Villa, but Ronaldo, Messi and Kaka all started, and Essien also played.

The formation is still the original 4231 formation, but the tactics are not the original tactics.

Mourinho's tactics in the first half were more focused on pressing in the midfield, with Michael? Johnson and Essien blocked the midfield, completely freezing Barcelona's midfield organization and attack, and suppressing the duo of Xavi and Iniesta.

It should be said that Mourinho's tactics are very bold, especially at home, he actually gave up attacking and chose to defend and counterattack, which did surprise Rijkaard, but it turned out that Mourinho's tactics of retreating as advance were correct.

In addition to getting several long-range shooting opportunities in a row after the opening, Barcelona entered the dilemma of fighting with the Red Rebels in the first 10 minutes, but how can the midfielders played by Xavi and Iniesta resist Michael? What about Johnson and Essien's rampage?

Kaka dropped back to play the organising role, Ronaldo and Messi were always a threat on both flanks, and Villa was flexible and roamed around the Barcelona defence.

After 10 minutes of stalemate, the Red Rebels gradually controlled the midfield, intercepting, breaking the ball, counterattacking, the Red Rebels' tactics are very concise and direct, but they are also very deadly, especially the frequent use of Barcelona offensive and defensive conversion, taking advantage of the opponent's unstable defense, the Red Rebels' counterattack is very sharp and fast.

In the 13th minute, Michael? After Johnson cut off Xavi's ball in the middle, he moved directly to the right side and handed it to Messi, and the Argentine teenager quickly rushed along the right side, using his skillful personal skills at his feet, and found an opportunity in front of the bottom line and passed diagonally to the front of the penalty area.

Kaka, who seems to have a good relationship with Messi, has already been quietly inserted in the back row, and when no one is marking, the front point follows up, and the football drills into the goal before Valdés reacts, 1:0!

But no one could have imagined that this was just the beginning.

5 minutes later, the Red Rebels made a comeback, at the front of the penalty area, Kaka had a beautiful through ball, Villa grabbed ahead of Max, rubbed out a banana ball, Valdés couldn't reach it, and could only watch the Red Rebels go to the next city, 2:0!

After scoring two goals in a row, Mourinho was not arrogant or impatient, constantly commanding the players on the sidelines to keep the formation compact, and continued to strengthen the interception in the midfield, which made Barcelona's counterattack look a little thunderous and rainy.

In the 26th minute, after a period of counterattack, Barcelona's momentum was a little weak, but the Red Rebels seized this rare opportunity again, Villa's long-range shot from outside the penalty area once again penetrated the goal guarded by Valdés, 3:0!

This goal shattered the confidence of the Barcelona players, especially when the whole field was suppressed, they couldn't even start a counterattack, and the midfield could not organize an effective offensive at all.

Rijkaard wanted to make adjustments, but after being stunned by the Red Rebels at the beginning, it was too late to adjust.

In the 38th minute, the Red Rebels made another city, Xiao Xiaoluo made a sharp breakthrough on the left side, Oleg was once again suddenly unable to find the north by the Portuguese, and could only watch the Portuguese shoot low in the penalty area, another city for the Red Rebels, 4:0!

In the blink of an eye, in less than half an hour, the Red Rebels completely turned Barcelona's backline upside down and completely crushed the determination of the Barcelona players to fight back.

The Red Rebels fans in the stands were completely crazy, they thought they could expect a game of equal strength, but who knows, it was a goal battle, especially the goal feast of the Red Rebels attacking Barcelona.

Is Barça's defense too bad?

Perhaps, there are certain factors, but more because the offensive strength of the Red Rebels is too strong!

Michael? Johnson and Essien were based on interceptions and pressing, and Kaka's retreat took on the responsibility of the team's organization, and it seemed that the attacking power was declining, but in fact they suppressed Barcelona in midfield and played a simple and effective quick counter-attack up front.

At half-time, Rijkaard spotted his team's problems and wanted to make a change, starting the second half with a defensive foothold in the hope of avoiding conceding goals and even a possible reversal.

With an aggregate score of 4:1, as long as Barcelona can score three more goals in the second half, it can reverse the Red Rebels to advance.

But at the beginning of the second half, in the 46th minute, Messi's goal completely broke Barcelona's good wishes.

After a combination with McCone on the right side, the Argentine teenager entered the penalty area, picked the ball past the attacking Valdés, and went directly into the net to expand the score to 5:0!

By this time, even Rijkaard had completely lost confidence and panicked, and even forgot about the substitutions arranged at halftime, and the Black Swan had probably never suffered such a painful defeat in his career.

The Barcelona fans in the stands remembered the call for "Rijkaard's dismissal", which seemed very sparse at first, but slowly, the call became louder and louder, and even the cheers of the Red Rebels fans could already be distinguished.

Perhaps, there is a group of obnoxious Red Rebels fans who deliberately want to see Barcelona infighting, but Rijkaard is helpless about it, especially when Michael? After Johnson scored a direct free kick, the score was expanded to 6:0, and Barcelona collapsed!

No one can come back from a loss of 6 goals, just as no one has ever been able to beat the Red Rebels at the Stadium, where the Red Rebels are gods, all-powerful gods!

Like a quail, Rijkaard hid in the dugout, covering his ears, not daring to let himself hear the shouts of the Barcelona fans in the stands behind him, and at this moment, the angry fans even wanted to grab Rijkaard and tear him to pieces.

I don't know how many years have passed, Barcelona has not suffered such a humiliation, but now, it was beaten 6-0 by the Red Rebels away, which is definitely a shameful game that will go down in the history of Barcelona, and Rijkaard must take responsibility for it.

Sometimes, the football field is so brutal.

Looking at the Red Rebels players who gradually relaxed their offensive on the field, looking at the group of Barcelona players who were like walking corpses, Rijkaard regretted a little, if he hadn't confidently thought before the game that his attack was enough to compete with the Red Rebels, maybe he wouldn't have lost so completely!

If it hadn't been his miscalculation before the game, thinking that the Red Rebels would definitely play offensive football at home and strive to overtake the game, maybe he would not have carelessly decided to attack the Red Rebels, and there would not have been such a painful defeat.

6：0…… Oh no, it's 7:0!

In a time of Rijkaard's frustration, Patrice Evra showed his attacking intensity after a cut down the left, slotting home from the corner on the left side of the box.

Valdés judged the direction of a shot from outside the box, but his body could not react and could only watch the ball go into the net.

At 7:0, Rijkaard was convinced that this was the darkest day in Barça's history, especially when he felt the anger of the fans in the stands, and he was even more aware that he could no longer stay in the position of Barcelona manager.

For proud teams like Barcelona and Real Madrid, one defeat is enough to overturn all the achievements that have been built before.

I believe that after this defeat, fans will definitely not remember that Rijkaard helped Barcelona snipe Real Madrid's Galaxy Battleship, let alone remember the beautiful offensive football that Rijkaard brought them, they will always remember that Rijkaard lost a 7:0 cleanly in a game that all Barcelona fans are not willing to lose!

is also the head coach, Rijkaard is afraid to show up in the coach's box, but Mourinho is standing on the sidelines, commanding, unspeakably arrogant, but so what? As a winner, he has such capital.

At times, Rijkaard has an indescribable envy of Jose Mourinho, who is in charge of the Red Rebels, and Xiao Yu, who claims to be the most successful football club owner in the world, believes in him that everything revolves around him, allowing him to get everything he wants.

Provided, of course, that it is established under reasonable circumstances.

On the other hand, Rijkaard, although he has a lot of power in Barcelona, is actually still restricted everywhere.

Or it should be said that in Barcelona, Rijkaard is just the head coach who stands up to meet people, not only him, including Xiao Yu's previous life, Rijkaard's successor Pep Guardiola, they are all just a representative, the real head coach of Barcelona is the system behind them, the rigorous system.

As the head coach of Barcelona, you don't need to have the shrewdness and vision to buy people, nor do you need to have extraordinary courage and bearing, let alone superhuman tactics, you only need to understand, be familiar with, and master Barcelona's tactical system, and you can be at ease.

It's like the Red Rebels have developed to the present, even if Mourinho suddenly leaves this club one day, the Red Rebels don't have to worry about no successor, because someone will soon take advantage of the trend, provided that he must be familiar with the Red Rebels' tactical system and continue to adhere to the Red Rebels' tactical concepts, and he can succeed!

Thinking of this, Rijkaard suddenly stepped out of the dugout and walked towards Mourinho, who was not far away.

Although the game is not over yet, Rijkaard is well aware that he has lost, and he has lost completely.

"Congratulations, Jose!" Never before has Rijkaard looked at Mourinho without the slightest hostility in his eyes.

"Thank you!" Mourinho was also a little polite.

He is not the kind of person who does not distinguish between right and wrong, on the contrary, he is very smart and knows how to get along with people, so he also knows that Rijkaard chose to say goodbye at this time, obviously for a deeper reason.

Barcelona will not allow such a failure, and at this time the board must look for a scapegoat, and as the team's manager, Rijkaard is undoubtedly the most suitable.

The Dutchman was clearly aware of what was going to happen to him, so he came over early to say goodbye to Mourinho.

The two stood side by side on the sidelines, looking at the field, the players on both sides were not very committed, one side won big, the other side lost miserably, there was no reason to invest, and the game seemed very boring.

Of course, from the point of view of the last 10 minutes, it is boring, but if you look at the whole game, it is exciting, the tactics are wonderful, the attack is wonderful, and the wits are wonderful.

"I can't help you, Jose, you won!" Rijkaard looked like he had come to terms with the defeat.

"Perhaps, we should say that it will be indefinite, but I must remind you that Jose, Barcelona's system is very rigorous, what is missing is only the last piece of the puzzle, I believe that what happened today at the Red Rebels stadium, sooner or later someone will take revenge!"

After saying that, Rijkaard tapped Mourinho on the shoulder and turned back to the away dugout.

Above his head, the Barcelona fans are doing everything possible to insult Rijkaard, and they all blame the Dutchman for this fiasco, which is also the sadness of the professional manager!

But Rijkaard stood upright, without movement, silently bearing all this, at this moment, in the eyes of everyone, black swan, pure masters!
