The roster can be delayed until two hours before the game, and unless there are any surprises, there will be no changes.

So Rijkaard was in the dressing room to get Lazio's squad for this game.

In the list, he found that the winning regulars were not in midfielder Luka Modric, nor in the experienced Rocchi.

On the contrary, it is a group of young people who always win.

In the middle of the three strikers is Falcao, who has just joined the team for a month and a half, right winger Benzema, left winger David. Silva.

There are no midfielders in the three midfielders, all of them are midfielders.

Inle, Khedi Ragamelo.

Three defensive midfielders lined up to form a line of defence in front of the centre-backs.

The central defender is Jose. Passarella and Francisco. Pavon partnered with Barzaretti at left-back and Stefan at right-back. Lichtsteiner.

Goalkeeper Handanovic.

It's a really young and over-the-top lineup.

Falcao was twenty years old, and David was twenty years old. Silva is twenty years old, Benzema is eighteen, Inle is twenty-two, Khedira is nineteen years old, Melo is twenty-three years old, Jose. Passarella was twenty-four, Pavon twenty-six, Barzaretti twenty-four, Lichtsteiner twenty-two, and Handanovic twenty-two.

The average age is twenty-one.

Being young means inexperienced, and there are three of those 11 players who only joined this summer. Whether they can integrate well with the team will also have a direct impact on the team's performance.

So when Rijkaard saw that Lazio's line-up was different from what he expected, he didn't panic. The squad was too young and inexperienced, which made Rijkaard feel that such a Lazio team was not a cause for concern.

At the same time, what this lineup means, Rijkaard did not delve into.

In his opinion, the arrangement of three defensive midfielders in the midfield is nothing more than to strengthen the defense.

Contempt for the ever-winning youth army. Let Rijkaard not even know how Jose Mourinho's Chelsea eliminated him in the quarter-finals two years ago......

So when the game started, he was surprised to find that Lazio was very tough.

He didn't expect to see Lazio all the time!

※※※

In fact, it was not only Rijkaard who was surprised, but also the spectators in the stands, the reporters in the media gallery, the commentators in the commentary booth, and even the VIPs on the podium.

Anyone who knows football knows what it means to be a "team that wins".

It means playing the most advanced, beautiful and beautiful football in Europe, and his team will always hold high the banner of attacking football. The offense kicks smoothly and kills the suspense of the game with powerful offenses. Because the offense is so strong, you don't even need to defend......

These are the impressions that most people have of winning teams.

This impression lasted for many years. From the beginning of Valencia's tenure in charge of Valencia, until now, five seasons now, his team has been like this.

So when you see a Lazio team that flexes their muscles on the pitch and destroys beautiful attacks. It's normal for them to be surprised.

"It's ...... What the fuck is going on? ”

A reporter in the media gallery was stunned to ask such a question.

※※※

When Barcelona's midfield brain, Deco, picked up the ball in midfield, he was mercilessly knocked to the ground by Melo from the side.

He fell to the ground, his face still looking a little dazed.

He looked around and felt that something was wrong.

Then he saw Chang Sheng standing on the sidelines, a mentor who completely changed his career and life, and he was applauding Melo's foul on the collision.

He suddenly remembered what Chang Sheng had said in response to him in a pre-match interview with reporters.

"I'm still going to remind them. On the pitch we are the enemy, go all out and defeat the enemy. It's like my team will go all out to beat them. ”

At that time, he always felt that Chang Sheng was just making a statement in front of the media, so as not to let the media talk nonsense.

After all, his relationship with Chang Sheng is not ordinary.

But now, he found out that Chang Sheng was actually telling the truth!

Chang Sheng really won't show mercy to his subordinates!

At this time, chewing on what Chang Sheng said at the beginning, there were other gains.

Deco got up from the ground. Captain Puyol came up to him and asked him about the situation, and Deco shook his head. Signal yourself that it's okay.

But his eyes were always on Chang Sheng.

As long as you are on the pitch and you are against each other, you have to go all out to defeat your opponents.

He felt that this might be the last lesson that Chang Sheng wanted to teach him.

Don't think that if we have a good relationship, I'll let you go in the game, and I'll play how I want.

Next, Deco felt hostility from Lazio during the match, not malice, but hostility.

※※※

Chang Sheng saw Deco adapting to his team's defensive intensity in the subsequent games.

Although he was knocked to the ground again and again, or lost possession due to close interference from Melo, Khedira and Inle.

However, he did not stand there with his hands outstretched and complained to the referee, he would immediately grab the ball if he lost it, and even if he couldn't get it back, he would try to interfere with the Lazio players' ball.

Chang Sheng looked at it, but a smile appeared on his face.

That's the kind of player I've developed......

There is a sense of pride in Chang Sheng. There is a sense of accomplishment that teachers have seen their students get ahead.

※※※

Deco was tenacious, which was not the case with other Barcelona players.

They seem to be very uncomfortable with Lazio's style of physical power flow.

As soon as they have the ball, they will be chased and intercepted by the Lazio players.

It seems that there is no corner for them to avoid in a huge stadium.

It's all fine at the back, but once Barcelona's attack moves into midfield, they start to come under pressure from Lazio's defence.

By the time they reached Lazio's 30-metre zone, Barcelona were almost unable to move an inch.

The offense was not good, and the defense went awry.

In the seventeenth minute, Lazio cut off Samuel Eto'o and launched a quick counter-attack.

Their offense wasn't as layered as everyone thought, with short passes penetrating.

Instead, just take the high ball and open your feet!

Falcao points the ball down with a header in front. Gave Benzema back plugged in.

Benzema took full advantage of his newborn calf not being afraid of tigers and ran wild with the ball.

That posture makes people think that even if Benzema finally got past several people, passed goalkeeper Valdés, and then scored, it would not be surprising.

Barcelona's back line rushed back to the defence.

Puyol and Marcos pressed on Benzema.

Then Benzema passed the ball.

The ball was passed to the back of the goal, and the high-speed plugged in David. Silva shovels directly!

He shoveled the ball into the goal solidly!

“l！！！ David. Silva! David. Silva! A beautiful counterattack! Lazio's counter-attack was really sharp! ”

"David. A beautiful tackle from Silva! It only took Lazio three passes to break through Barcelona's goal! Look at those stunned Barcelona players and fans...... They must have found this scene unbelievable! They had more technical and tactical advantages, and they actually conceded the ball first! ”

"From the very beginning of the game, Lazio took the initiative and their tactics completely stifled Barcelona's play, who were pressed by them. There is no way to play. Ten minutes is enough for Lazio to take the initiative. ”

"It really surprised me. Is this the football that is often played? Defensive counter-attack, defense that borders on fouls...... This kind of competition is really eye-opening for me! The Catalan narrator said indignantly.

But no one cared about him.

Someone finally remembered that it's not uncommon for winning teams to play this set.

Because when he first started, he relied on defensive counter-attacks at Getafe to lead the team to promotion and championships.

It's just that when he switched to Mad Dog football in Valencia, he never played defensive counter-attacks again. Not to mention such a thorough defensive counterattack......

So much so that everyone forgets that Chang Sheng actually retreats to defense.

But you shouldn't have made such a mistake, and who said that the mad dog tactics of winning are too impressive?

※※※

David. Silva got up to celebrate the goal and ran towards Benzema, who had passed the ball to him. Falcao, who was originally running to the door to grab points, also changed his route and ran towards two people.

There was a deafening cheer from the Lazio fans in the stands.

When the media were not optimistic that Lazio could beat Barcelona before the game, these Lazio fans could not help even if they were not convinced.

But now, they're finally raising their eyebrows!

Didn't you say we couldn't win against Barcelona?

Who's leading now?!

It's us Lazio!!

Extreme Lazio fans even shouted slogans insulting to Barcelona. They vented their grievances to the fullest.

※※※

When everyone was excited, Chang Sheng seemed very calm.

He stood on the sidelines and just applauded his team's performance. He didn't jump three feet high, and he didn't rush onto the court with open arms, go around in a circle, and come back.

He's not the only one who appears calm.

In Lazio's dugout, in addition to him, there were three other people who were also calm.

Pep Guardiola is because of his feelings for Barcelona. When the winning team plays against Barcelona, it doesn't matter if it's a goal or a win. He never celebrates.

And Rudy. Gonzalez and Elias. Dominic's two men went through the Valencia period with Chang Sheng, when Valencia's win against Barcelona was as difficult as eating.

So it's not worth their excitement and excitement.

However, the Lazio coaches in the coaching staff were particularly excited, shouting and jumping, running wildly and hugging.

It's as if they've already won the game.

It wasn't because that goal gave Lazio the lead, but more importantly, what Lazio showed in the game was proof that they could take the lead. This shows that they are on the right path......

The stone in their hearts finally landed.

When Chang Sheng asked the whole team to practice defensive counter-attacks against Barcelona, these coaches still expressed their opposition. They believe that Lazio, who have given up on attack and opted for defense, is tantamount to playing up their weaknesses and avoiding their strengths.

It's not right to do that.

But Chang Sheng insisted on his own opinion.

They were very apprehensive in their hearts, for fear that Chang Sheng would make a wrong choice.

Now judging from the game scene, Lazio has completely suppressed Barcelona......

Then it was logical to score.

They were relieved.

ps, you have to work hard every day to ask for a monthly pass, and the monthly pass will rise!
