The game against Barcelona was far tougher than any other team.

Watching the start of the second half of the game from the sidelines, Li Bin was on the sidelines, and he also sighed in his heart.

Barcelona at its peak really lived up to its name, and throughout the first half of the game, its own team fell behind without any doubt in terms of ball possession. Their passing, coordination, breakthroughs, and all aspects can be said to be the most outstanding team Li Bin has seen. After the opening, Tottenham relied on a counter-attack opportunity to score a goal, but except for that goal, Tottenham was in a passive situation throughout the whole half of the game, and Barcelona took the initiative, which is very rare for Tottenham. Tottenham have not lost this season, but even Chelsea and Manchester United have no chance to form such a strong pressure on Tottenham.

can have such strength, it is worthy of the dream three team. Moreover, what makes Li Bin even more amazed is that the means of dealing with various emergencies, they are also surprisingly mature, after Guardiola's change of tactics, Tottenham's attack is no longer smooth, they are worthy of being a team that has reached the Champions League semi-finals year after year, and the experience is really extraordinary.

However, if they think that Li Bin only relies on this trick to fight back against them, then they are completely wrong. The three-second fast attack after the opening was a good attempt, but Li Bin knew very well that since he wanted to engage in a real positional battle with Barcelona, it would not work to rely on counterattacks alone. It's not that he didn't have offensive tactics, the mentality of the players in the first half was not very good, they were suppressed by the opponent, but in the second half, they could turn the situation around.

After the second half, Tottenham's ball-possession attack also began to increase.

Barcelona's attack still did not form much of a useful offensive. In the front court, the aging Henry and Pedro, who are more rigid in his feet, do not have much breakthrough strength, and there is only one effective breakthrough point in Barcelona's frontcourt, Messi, who is very guarded, which also makes the confidence of the Tottenham players continue to rise.

Barcelona are strong in attack, but that doesn't mean they're invulnerable. In Li Bin's memory, Barcelona has always been helpless against Chelsea, except for Mourinho when they successfully eliminated Chelsea once, and at other times, they lost to Chelsea when they met them - but now Carlo Ancelotti also lost to them - and Shakhtar, Kazan Ruby, Manchester United, Inter, Milan and later Madrid have all managed to effectively contain them.

The 30-meter stubborn defense in the backfield, the cutting of the middle position, and the layers of chain defense can all pose a threat to them. Li Bin has a good player in his hand, there is no need to stick to the backcourt, and he adopts standing cutting and chain defense, which obviously works well.

In fact, Li Bin has another way to strengthen his defense: if he plays dirty, he can greatly affect the opponent. But Li Bin asked himself that he was not Simeone, he didn't have the ability to effectively grasp the foul scale, and he didn't dare to teach the players to pursue that style of play. Fortunately, his players, at least for now, can still play like this.

On the wing, when a corner kick from Barcelona was cut off by Papalmeri instead of penetrating, he played the ball to Di Maria on the wing. Di Maria, who got the ball near his own penalty area, was forced by Pedro on the opposite side before he could take a few steps forward, and he easily shook Pedro with the ball, but he did not choose to continue to carry it himself, but knocked it to Piszczek near the penalty area.

The cross shot allowed Piszczek to get the ball in the most dangerous place, and as Di Maria expected, it immediately drew Pedro, Andres Iniesta and Thierry Henry to flank Piszczek. Barcelona's counter-attacking performance was excellent, they were used to the defensive approach of three people and one man, and Di Maria was used to it.

Piszczek, who was caught in the middle, knew that Di Maria wanted to launch a counterattack on his own, and this pass, he wanted Piszczek to distract the defensive pressure. Piszczek lived up to his hopes by not tangling with the trio and stabbing the ball into Di Maria. Di Maria got the ball and was about to accelerate, at this time, in front of him, Abidal rushed up, and Iniesta behind him immediately chased back, and under the siege of Cos, Di Maria walked directly towards the middle.

It was still in his own half, and his choice also disrupted the opponent's set-up. Andres Iniesta followed, but Di Maria stopped the ball, conceded it in front of him, and then flicked it easily at his feet and passed him again. He immediately slid the ball down the flank, and Abidal on his flank was immediately a tackle, his toes touching the ball, but Di Maria twisted his body and flicked the ball back, still in control at his feet.

Barcelona's frontcourt counter-robbery has always been very intense, and the possession of the ball saves them physical strength, and the cooperation gives them the capital to counter-attack. However, Di Maria's possession breakthrough at the back, although he stumbled and was not particularly smooth, still broke through their siege and fought his way out.

The meaning of muscles is to better deal with the opponent's counter-attack, not to use it for brainless fouls - only by doing so can it cause a break to Barcelona in the greatest sense.

He took the ball down the middle again, and this time, Iniesta didn't rush in again, but followed in his footsteps. Xavi and Butzkes on the front made up for it, and the two wanted to press Di Maria, but Di Maria, who was running sideways, rushed diagonally towards his own half, avoiding the opponent's pressing, messing up the opponent's defensive level, and then, immediately a straight kick, kicked the ball to Bale who was inserted on the left side.

The effect of two breakthrough hands at high speed is very unimaginable. By the time Bale received the ball, only Butzques could chase him back and defend him. This is already a very big advantage.

However, the strength of Barcelona's left-back is still very good, Alves knows very well that letting Bale break through is self-defeating, he really chose to foul at this time, he grabbed Bale's clothes, and at the same time with his hands, he also stumbled under his feet, and suddenly put Bale to the ground.

"Alves' foul...... Di Maria's beautiful churning, his dribbling ruined Barcelona's control of the game, and Barcelona are now starting to get into trouble. ”

Alves's yellow card, like a declaration, tells people that from this moment on, the game is no longer Tottenham is at the bottom of the opponent and besieged by the opponent, Tottenham Hotspur after the first half of the discomfort, their attacks have begun to gradually spread.

This free-kick, Bale sent it himself, and he kicked the ball to Yaya Toure in the middle. Toure received the ball and immediately turned around. At the first time, he avoided Butzkes, who came to grab the ball, and then, almost immediately, he found Di Maria, who was inserted on his right, and passed the ball over.

Di Maria received the ball and kept running at a high speed. He knows very well that he can't slow down, as long as his speed is enough, the opponent's counter-attack will not have much chance of grabbing the ball at his feet. In front of him, Abidal was already stuck again, Di Maria knew that it would be difficult for him to attack Abidal's defense, and he slid the ball diagonally forward and gave it to Suarez, who received it in the middle.

Suarez received the ball in midfield, picked it up with his first kick and turned to shoot. Beside him, both Pique and Buzques had already rushed over, and Pique was quite well stuck in position and did not give Suarez any possibility of scoring. However, after Pique stuck in the position, the outstretched foot was also dodged by Suarez, and he did not hesitate to kick the ball diagonally to the bottom line, and Bale on the left side rushed up and received the ball near the bottom line. Alves was quick to return and he didn't have a chance, but he immediately knocked the ball to Coentrão behind him, who crossed and kicked it towards the middle.

It's a pity that this very good coordination is not done well in the last relief of the connection. Puyol, in the middle, showed his anticipatory ability as he got ahead of Cavani, found the spot, and took a leap to head the ball over.

"It's a pity that we almost managed to score a goal...... Tottenham's attack is quite fast, and it is the first time that a Premier League team can do such an attack with Barcelona. ”

The commentator looked at Tottenham's attack and was also quite amazed: in his memory, the Premier League team against Barcelona relied more on the counterattack and less on the ground. There are really not many teams like Tottenham that dare to entangle with Barcelona on the ground. Tottenham Hotspur have obviously improved their strength after half-time, and now they are not at a disadvantage against Barcelona.

In fact, if you look closely at the possession, Barcelona still has the upper hand. In terms of seizing control of the midfield, Tottenham certainly outnumbered Barcelona. What Tottenham did was actually very simple, that is, under the control of Barcelona, to achieve some effective cooperation, form a propulsion ability, and not let their side be completely suppressed by the opponent.

Barcelona are very strong in controlling football, but as long as they can prevent them from forming an effective counter-attack, their own side can control the ball, and they can form an effective attack. Chelsea did it last season and some teams in La Liga did it. And what Li Bin wants is to do the same: not to pursue the ball, but to pursue effective attacks. Relying on their players to have better physical fitness, they continue to attack, exchanging muscle and speed for opportunities. And because Barcelona's control of the middle is too strong and not easy to play, then, it uses the wing attack as the expansion, relying on the combination of the side and the center, with Yaya Toure and Suarez as the axis, and Bale and Di Maria as the gear, advancing layer by layer.

As long as one layer is advanced, there are teammates who immediately cooperate to form a threat at multiple points at the same time, so that Barcelona's counter-robbery is subject to some effective restrictions, and at the same time, the continuous impact on Barcelona in the middle is the biggest threat to Barcelona's lack of effective physical confrontation in the backfield.

Now playing on the court, everything is the same as Li Bin thinks: the combination of the side and the middle can effectively tear apart the opponent's defense, and the recursive push layer by layer can make the opponent's defense porous. If in the first half of the game, Tottenham Hotspur was attacked by Barcelona's Messi, then in the second half, their attack also began.

On the scene, Tottenham has begun to redeem some, which makes Li Bin also very pleased. Over the years, collecting breakthrough players and concentrating on practicing the kick style of rapid attack have really had a great effect on Barcelona.

Barcelona's strength lies in control, but Tottenham's strength lies in pressing. In the first half of the game, Barcelona took advantage of its advantages and has been showing off its strength for a while, and now, the situation of the game is about to be reversed!
