Chapter 139: Sighing "Dream Team II"

In 1991, Dutch legend Cruyff became the head coach of Barcelona, leading the team composed of Stoichkov, Romario, Guardiola, Da Laudrup, Subisareta, Coman and other players from 1991 to 1994, won the European Cup Winners' Cup, the European Champions Cup, the Spanish Copa del Rey, and won four consecutive La Liga championships, becoming the pinnacle of Barcelona in the century.

In the 1994 European Champions Cup final, Cruyff led the ambitious and confident Barcelona to AC Milan, which lacked a major general and had only 14 players left in the team. Unexpectedly, Barcelona lost 0:4 in the final, and since then the miracle of the dream team has been gone, all the way downhill.

In 2004, Barcelona had superstars such as Ronaldinho, Eto'o, Giuli, Deco, etc., and Rijkaard, one of the "Dutch Three Musketeers", led the team.

It's just that...... Everything doesn't look so rosy.

On the sidelines, amid the shocking shouts of 40,000 people at Stamford Bridge, Jovin called Ramos to his side and whispered something in his ear, but one hand lifted his shirt, as if he was wiping something on his "ass".

When the on-site commentator saw this scene, he suddenly smiled: "Chelsea is already leading 3:0, isn't Joe cannon still satisfied?" Mr. Butcher, we know that every time Joe Cannon pulls the players on the field to show affection, the team's performance will go to the next level, what do you think, Joe Cannon, this is ...... Planning to kill them all at home? ”

Terry Buche laughed heartily, "I enjoyed it!" Haha, Qiao Wanxian is humble to the enemy and the media, but his attitude towards the fans is still very admirable. Chelsea have scored five goals at Camp Nou and at least five at Stamford Bridge, right? Otherwise, wouldn't you be sorry for the expensive tickets? ”

"Mr. Butcher, it's kind of funny. Rijkaard's side have been touted by the Catalan media as the 'Dream Two', but now they are six points behind Real Madrid in the league and in the Champions League...... Facing the slaughter of Chelsea! The 1994 Champions League final was the moment when the 'Dream One' fell apart, so do you agree that the two games against Chelsea were the beginning of the 'Dream Team' collapse? Or rather...... Completely sink! ”

Terry Butche scoffed at the Dream Team's claim and pouted: "A country that hasn't won the Shijie Cup doesn't understand football at all!" Spain's team also deserves to be called the Dream Team? It's just a smile and generosity, not to mention Barcelona, even if Real Madrid faces Chelsea, it must be the fate of slaughter! ”

Terry Buche seems to have grasped the essence of Jovan's high-profile cannon, first satirizing England captain David Beckham and then belittling Spanish football in favor of Chelsea, the England legend has continued to gain popularity in recent times.

On the field, the two teams still fought bravely.

The Chelsea players were surprised, and even Qiao Wanxian was a little surprised, why is the psychological quality of the Barcelona players so strong? The total score is 8 goals behind, and he is still desperately fighting on the field. Looking at Rijkaard on the sidelines, he danced the "swan dance" on the sidelines, hoarsely conveying his tactical intentions.

Qiao Wanxian was a little puzzled, what's wrong? This guy is still delusional about a big reversal?

He didn't know, in fact, at halftime, Rijkaard spoke, since the exit is a foregone conclusion, then he has to fight for the honor of the team! In any case, score a goal and save some face!

On the field, the Barcelona players are still cheering each other on, especially Puyol, exhausted by the energetic Rooney back and forth, but still gritting his teeth and persevering, while constantly encouraging his teammates not to give up.

From the manager to the players, Barcelona have the same goal, that is, to break the door of Chelsea! was beaten in two rounds, which is really insulting to the style of the giants.

Qiao Wanxian didn't know what they were thinking, and thought that this group of people was delusional and planned to turn the tables. However, this sullen snag can be described as invincible, and he made up his mind to keep the goal from losing, because ...... That's a lot of face, right?

Taking advantage of a dead ball, he called in Frank Lampard and covered his mouth and whispered: "The defence is slightly retracted, you drop back and Makelele form a double midfielder." You're in charge of defending on the right flank, assisting Ramos in repairing that bucktooth, Ronaldinho, and letting Claude Makelle help defend Gyuli. ”

Frank Lampard's best position is in the midfield, but the midfielder is also very good, he "coo-dong" took a few sips of water, patted his chest and said: "Boss, don't worry, I promise the gate is not lost!" ”

Qiao Wanxian said solemnly: "It's okay not to concede a goal, but you can't not fail to score!" Don't just focus on defense and not offense. ”

Frank Lampard smiled: "Don't worry, the formation has changed from 4-1-4-1 to 4-2-3-1, how many times have you trained, I know ......"

When the game restarted, Barcelona seemed desperate and launched an onslaught, with left wing-back Van Bronckhorst stepping into the Chelsea half several times as if he had raised his eyebrows, while Puyol, who faced Wayne Rooney on the other side, was relatively cautious and did not dare to take a step beyond the thunder pool.

After Lampard retreated, the superiority of the double back was immediately revealed, and the counter-attack and interception of the attacking group in the front field combined with the hardness of the double back made Chelsea midfielders Kaka, Joe Cole, Makelele, Lampard and Rooney, who likes to drop back to get the ball, form a big net that is constantly changing shape, and the Barcelona players are like fish in the net, wanting to keep breaking through from all directions, but the Chelsea midfielders rely on their super individual ability and skillful cooperation, and the big net is also constantly changing, making it difficult for Barcelona to cross the midfield.

The anti-robbery and siege tactics in the front court have not yet formed a trend in this era, and the defensive theme of most teams is still to return to defense quickly, stand in a good position and wait for the attack.

Qiao Wanxian's idea is to always adhere to the integration of offense and defense, there is no clear division of offensive and defensive areas, the backfield can launch a long pass attack, and the frontcourt can also be defended by encirclement.

Barcelona's midfield lost control and the development of the attack struggled through Chelsea's midfield. Rijkaard's face is pale, Barcelona has always been proud of ball control and passing, where did he think that such a scene would appear! If it is reasonable to have a low possession rate under one less man in the last game, then this 11-11 attack, the offensive can't even pass through the opponent's midfield.

Rijkaard gritted his teeth, looked at the table below, and found that it was already the 60th minute of the game, and he made a gesture to the players on the field: long pass!

Rijkaard also saw that Chelsea's midfield was too dense, so he simply abandoned the midfield and found the fast trident in front through a long pass from the back. This style of play is occasionally possible, but it is inevitable that it will look too ugly to insist on it, just to break through the Chelsea door, he is out of the way, if the striker can't get the ball, how can he talk about scoring?

Barcelona immediately changed their style of play, organized the core Deco to retreat, and passed the ball under the protection of the double barrier formed by Motta, Xavi and the two central defenders, and the position was only 10 meters from the front of the penalty area.

In this case, the Portuguese Deco finally has the opportunity to calmly pass the ball with his feet, but how accurate can the long pass be? Barcelona's trident lacked a high point to control the ball in the air, and Barcelona's possession plummeted, but the good news was that the ball finally had a chance to threaten the Chelsea defence.

Commentator Terry Buche saw Barcelona's style of play and sneered: "Rijkaard is really from a midfielder, and the core of the organization retreats to the position of central defender to play the ball, I guess he can think of it!" I don't know if Cruyff will vomit blood when he sees such a game! ”

For a while, there were boos in Stamford Bridge, and the loudest voices belonged to the Spanish fans who came from afar, and it was an insult to see the ball at the feet of Chelsea.

With bursts of boos, Chelsea's on-field fighters need to be the icing on the cake!

In the 67th minute, Ramos once again preemptively offloaded the ball before Ronaldinho and handed it to Frank Lampard, who retreated to ask for the ball.

Seeing Ronaldinho, who had been teased many times by the teenager Ramos, Jovan almost burst out laughing. Thinking about Ramos in his previous life, he was played countless times by Ronaldinho at his peak, but now the situation is completely opposite, Ronaldinho probably has the heart to cry, right?

Barcelona's attack was out of order, but Chelsea continued to follow the rules, with Frank Lampard passing Makelele short, Makelele and Grosso on the left flank made two simple passes and found Wayne Rooney with a straight shot.

Puyol followed Rooney inch by inch, Rooney's dribbling seemed to be at ease, and after stepping on a few bicycles in a row and finding that Puyol's center of gravity had not changed, he reluctantly pulled the ball back, half-turned and tried to pass the ball.

Puyol saw that Rooney gave up the breakthrough, and immediately stretched out his foot to steal when he had the opportunity, where did he think that this was completely within Rooney's expectations! He slammed his heel and the ball went straight through Puyol's goal, Rooney broke through and there was no one within a few meters in front of him!

"Beautiful! The genius Rooney is completely a magician-like performance, and in two games, the young Rooney let the Barcelona captain see what real English football is! ”

The stadium erupted in applause for Rooney's brilliant performance, but ...... This is just the beginning.

The sullen Rooney learned a lot of Qiao Wan's idle and performance-loving temperament, and the audience applauded thunderously, of course he hoped for this applause...... A little more passionate, passionate...... A little more surging!

Marquis, who was making up for the defense, was menacing, and Rooney, who rushed into the penalty area, walked leisurely.

"Boom!" Stamford Bridge was in turmoil.

"It's crotch again! God, Rooney's fake shot deceived Marques, and Rooney seized the opportunity to pass with another beautiful crotch! God, can anyone tell me what kind of fantastic imagination Rooney has? ”

The commentators, like the fans at the scene, went crazy.
