As Bale sprinted forward with the ball at a brisk pace, Barcelona's defenders were already on the defensive.

Barcelona are not one of the lower divisions of the Premier League, after all. Those teams, Bale accelerates a little, and they will immediately scatter into a pile of mud, but Barcelona's back line is not so easy to break.

Barcelona's right centre-back is Gerard Pique, and if Alves is not able to return in time, he should be the man who follows Bale. However, Bale's breakthrough speed made Pique a little nervous, and he was not sure whether he should stick it or pull a little distance.

This is not to blame him, his technical strength is not bad, but Bell's breakthrough speed is too ferocious. Pique will have a hard time keeping up with him, so there will be some problems when defending him.

But when he hesitated, Bale had already chosen to pass. He knocked the ball with his left foot to the ground and knocked it straight out. In the middle, Cavani rushed up and immediately fired a shot towards the goal!

Tottenham's frontcourt counterattack played very sharply: the counterattack completed within five seconds made Barcelona unable to deploy too many manpower to defend, but the Tottenham players retreated very quickly, Cavani rushed to the edge of the penalty area, and this shot made Puyol, who came to fill the position, even if he stretched his legs, he could not touch it!

But behind Puyol, Valdés was behind him, jumped high and pounced the ball outside the goal, his reaction speed was good, this time there was no mistake, although this shot was almost a dead corner, but it was still blocked by him. However, in the penalty area, Suarez struggled to bypass Abidal and rushed forward.

The entanglement of the two made football not turn Suarez into an opportunity for the first time. On his side, Abidal gave him too much pressure, Abidal withstood him, so that he didn't have any chance to turn around and shoot at all, and Puyol also approached at this time, in an emergency, Suarez pushed the ball out of the ball with one kick, on the right side, Di Maria had already inserted, Abidal's adduction, so that there was almost no one around him to influence, he got the ball, the first foot to the left with a step, and then, a kick to the ground kicked out of the ball!

This time, Valdés was too late to save as he was next to the right post, and the shot was on the left. Valdés struggled to fly, but landed on the ground, unable to stop the ball and flew into the bottom left corner of the goal.

“gooooal！！！！！ Di Maria scored the goal!! Tottenham scored first in the game! ”

Di Maria, who scored the goal, couldn't believe it for a long time when he watched the goal, but it wasn't until Cavani rushed over and picked him up and threw him into the sky that he turned around excitedly and ran towards the camera on the sidelines, making a celebratory heart gesture to the camera.

'Of Tottenham's front-court players, Di Maria is the one with the fewest goals. Compared to his teammates, he has a lack of shots and desire to score. However, he gave up this ball very beautifully. Barcelona's defense in the box formed by three defenders was completely crushed by the stabbing of the Tottenham players, and they conceded a goal first! ”

Tottenham's celebration made Guardiola also pat his leg on the sidelines: this kind of attacking method is all too familiar to him: the combination of good passers and side attacks has made Barcelona suffer losses more than once, and it can even be said that Barcelona is played by the other party every time it suffers. It's not the first time that Mourinho has relied on Sneijder to play like this, and he was careless and fooled, which is really negligent. Tottenham is now coming like this, so that Guardiola immediately regrets it.

He originally thought that he could rely on passing to maintain the situation and not let Tottenham get too many chances, but he ignored that Tottenham's ability to seize opportunities was actually not bad at all. Yaya Toure was able to hold the ball down the middle and pass wide, while on both flanks, Tottenham had two quick counter-attacking players. Scoring goals behind you like this, Tottenham can do very beautifully. And Barcelona's backline, when faced with strong impacts, is not particularly useful.

Knowing that this was the case, he should have prepared early - Guardiola was annoyed in his heart. It's not that there's no way to defend this style of play. Because he has played against Real Madrid a lot and has more time to face Ronaldo, he has also understood what to do.

Soon after, he made adjustments on the sidelines, and when the kick-off was made again, Barcelona's backline players almost never plugged in again, but consolidated the defense at the back.

"Barcelona are not moving at the back at the moment and they have opted to drop Alves and pull the pitch wide...... Naturally, this can make Tottenham's counterattack ineffective, but in doing so, what should Barcelona's attack be? ”

Barcelona like to rely on passing the ball behind the opponent, and such an attack is naturally easier to achieve if the width is widened. But now, in order to prevent the Tottenham players from counterattacking, they let Alves no longer plug in, which has a big impact on their attack.

On the pitch, Xavi controlled the football and moved unhurriedly towards the front. Although his team is already behind, he knows very well how to keep the ball in order to put Barcelona at the best tempo. It's been more than 30 minutes since the game, and it's really anxious that I still haven't pulled it back, but no matter how anxious I am, I can't make a mistake. Yaya Toure in midfield ran towards him and Xavi handed the ball to Andres Iniesta in front of him. Andres Iniesta knew Xavi's thoughts and immediately passed the ball back again. The duo wanted to draw in Tottenham's defenders with their passes and make their backline porous.

However, this did not have much effect. In this game, Barcelona has a very embarrassing place, that is, their physical confrontation is almost completely inferior, they can't carry the opponent, they can only avoid the opponent. Therefore, Tottenham relied on the position, confrontation, and deformed the three lines of Barcelona a lot, which made Xavi always feel that today's passing was a little indescribably sluggish when he played.

As he moved forward, the Tottenham players reacted immediately. When Xavi played the ball towards Iniesta with another kick, Palmeri had already stepped up behind Iniesta. The wide range of movement of the Tottenham backline gave Gustavo the opportunity to get on Iniesta's passing path, but the combination of the two men made his ball unsuccessful and was cut off by Gustavo.

Tottenham's defensive strategy for this game was to rely on their positioning and link-up to block Barcelona's passing – which was difficult, requiring a lot more movement and skillful coordination than their opponents, but for Tottenham they could try it.

Gustavo, who got the ball, gave the ball to Di Maria on the right flank. Di Maria tried to attack quickly, but when he looked up, he found that his opponent had quickly returned to the defense.

He is considered by the coach to be the strongest opponent.

Di Maria exclaimed, turned slightly, and kicked the ball directly towards Coentrão on the other wing. He knew he was easily forced to get the ball to Coentrão at the back, which was relatively easier to control.

However, Coentrão lifted his leg, and when the ball came, the stop was slightly larger. The football stopped about two meters in front of him, and there the Barcelona players had already run over!

That's Messi.

Even if Barcelona didn't press the wings, they didn't hesitate to attack. Although without Alves, the space in the front court is much narrower, but they are not out of the way for the small space. Because they don't have Messi, the player with the strongest breakthrough ability in the world.

Coentrão made a mistake to stop the ball, which gave Messi a chance, and he rushed forward and kicked the ball that had not yet hit the ground in front of him. The football flew towards Coentrão's back, and Coentrão immediately turned around and tried to catch up with Messi. The two of them rushed to the side of the football almost at the same time, and Coentron knew that the opponent's skills were much better than his, and he immediately broke the shovel and kicked towards the football!

However, he didn't kick the football, originally he thought that this would at least hinder Messi's running on the outside of him, but at this time, Messi jumped over his left leg with a light jump!

This action, on the contrary, gave Messi a chance, he shook off Coentrão and kept the ball in the middle. He looked at his team-mates and saw that Tottenham were still blocking passes from their positions, and by the time he got the ball, Gustavo had moved closer.

But Messi is no one else. Compared to his teammates, he is different. With the ball on his left foot, his body jerked forward, but the ball stayed at his side and did not move. This action made Gustavo a little excited and wanted to grab it, but before he could react, Messi accelerated with his feet, had already dialed the ball, and rushed forward!

Although this is not a good one, it is Gustavo who has lost the opportunity. He could only run behind Messi and enter the box. In the penalty area, Palmeri was also there waiting for Messi's assault, and the two gradually got closer, trying to stop Messi.

Messi's breakthrough ability, Palmeri is also convinced, but at this time, he still wants to rely on the cooperation of the players in the penalty area to intercept Messi. Messi basically has no space to cut inside, Palmeri wants to send him to the bottom line, so that he can't pass the ball, as a left-footed player, he can't cut inside on the right side, he is quite restricted.

It's a pity that this kind of kick works for others, but not for Messi. Messi also saw that there was no space for his inward cut, he did not choose to cut inward, but flicked the ball with his left foot, and suddenly sent it forward with his right foot, passing the ball through the right side of Palmeri's side, while he himself squeezed through the left side of Palmery's side, and in a space of less than five meters, he played a man-ball split!

Terrible ball feeling! Even as he turned to try to break the ball, Palmeri couldn't stop his surprise. However, at the moment he turned around, he thought he could stop Messi, but taking advantage of the instability of the moment he turned around, Messi directly pushed him on the waist and pushed him to the ground!

Not only does this little man have a very quick speed and amazing reactions, but he also has a strength that is not commensurate with his physique.

Messi, who had caught up with the football, had already gotten rid of Palmeri, he got the ball and turned around, but Gustavo had already rushed up again. He didn't give his opponent room to fill in and fired the ball towards the goal!

In front of goal, Neuer pounced, stood on the edge of the post, and slapped the ball out of the net. However, although Messi's solo move into the penalty area did not result in a goal, it also caused chaos in the penalty area, Pedro stepped in the back row, shot at the goal, and kicked the ball towards the far post!

Almost the same shot that turned up the goalkeeper to hit the far post! Tottenham's goal, less than the second half, was already equalized by the opponent. In the penalty area, watching the players celebrating the opponent, the Tottenham players all remembered Li Bin's words in their hearts.

A player like Messi can change a lot of things alone - Li Bin is not wrong at all, such a player is indeed terrible!
