Volume 1 Chapter 315 A Difficult Draw
(Happy Chinese New Year, ask for a guaranteed monthly pass)
Fiorentina can't play with Barcelona in passing and penetrating in the middle, and in fact, there is no team in the whole world that can compete with Barcelona in this regard, but football is not the only way to play, in addition to short pass penetration and long pass rushing.
Fiorentina actually has the capital to rush with long passes, and the forward line is the 1.96 meter high school striker Toni, and Chen Yu, who has an excellent header, as long as he can dare to invest troops in the attack, he can also threaten Barcelona's goal.
Previously, Fiorentina focused too much on defense, and there were not a few decent attacks at all, and even then a goal was completed, which is enough to show that Fiorentina can also threaten Barcelona, and Barcelona's backline shortcomings are also prominent.
After the score became 3:l, the mentality of the two sides also changed significantly, with Barcelona tending to be conservative and Fiorentina more inclined to attack.
Of course, Barcelona's conservatism is not to retreat, but to control the ball more at their feet, reduce dangerous direct passes, and more horizontal and return passes, attracting Fiorentina to attack and counterattack.
The change in mentality immediately affected the offensive and defensive situation on the pitch.
In the 58th minute of the game, Barcelona saw Fiorentina suddenly play a fast attack due to the loosening of the backfield defense after the forward press, Ronaldinho broke through to the bottom line on the side and crossed, but the ball was pushed out by Fiorentina defender Dainelli.
The ball reached Donadale's feet, and now Fiorentina had no other considerations, and directly made a long pass with a big foot, and the ball went straight to the Barcelona penalty area.
It turns out that only Toni is alone in the front court, after the ball is passed, it is almost like looking for a needle in a haystack, even if Tony is high, the area he can control is still limited, there is goalkeeper Valdés in front, and there are Barcelona's fullbacks on both sides, only when the ball hits the middle, Tony can get it, and to get the ball under the sandwich of Puyol and Oleg, I am afraid it is not easy, Oleg is a controller, but Puyol is by no means easy, the title of the Golden Retriever Lion King is not only because he has curled blonde hair.
But now, Fiorentina has three people in the front, Chen Yu, Di Natale and Toney, covering the left, center and right directions, and Chen Yu has an amazing explosion and has a greater range of control.
Donadale's ball didn't have time to see the position clearly when it came, and he chose his footwork, Barcelona's high press was fast, and the reaction was not slow at all, but Chen Yu took control of the ball before everyone.
In the face of Barcelona's mad dog-like pressing, Chen Yu did not dare to leave the ball at his feet, fortunately, the two strikers were very active, and rushed to the penalty area when Chen Yu took the ball, Chen Yu was very decisive to get rid of Van Bommel's pressing and passed the ball to Tony who rushed to the penalty area.
The arc ball passed by Chen Yu is very high, that is, the central defender who bullied Barcelona has no height, Puyol is only 1.8 meters, Oleg is 1.87 meters, and Tony is nine centimeters behind. And Oleg's athleticism is a lot worse than Tony's.
Sure enough, Toni made full use of his height advantage, jumped after crossing the penalty line, and beat Oleg's powerful header in the big penalty area.
The header was so powerful that it was a little far away, but it still caused problems for Valdés, and the Barcelona goalkeeper almost used his fingertips to poke the ball out of the line.
Another good chance for a corner.
Fiorentina's players boldly moved the formation to the center circle, and the attacking players almost surrounded Barcelona's penalty area, completely ignoring Barcelona's terrifying counter-attack.
This is not a counterattack that Fiorentina underestimates the opponent, but a manifestation of the determination to break the boat.
Barcelona didn't dare to be careless, and concentrated all the forces that could defend in the penalty area, so they almost sent Messi to the penalty area to fight for the top.
Fiore takes a corner.
There was chaos in the penalty area, but in the end it was Fiorentina who grabbed the header, and Chen Yu's high-altitude bombardment was slightly higher than the crossbar, which scared the Barcelona fans into a cold sweat.
Then Barcelona was more cautious in possession of the ball, the ball was mainly passed around at the back, unless there was a very good chance, unless Xavi, Deco, Ronaldinho personally shot, Barcelona would not pass the threat, it seemed that they wanted to pass the remaining 30 minutes like this.
However, as Fiorentina accelerated their pressing, Barca's possession became increasingly unsafe.
In the first minute of the game, Fiorentina's front three suddenly erupted at the same time, as if they had been negotiated, and rushed to Barcelona's Oleg, forcing Oleg to rush back to goalkeeper Valdés.
Valdés was also defenseless, and a hurried kick hit Fiorentina's defender Brocki, who stopped the ball on his chest and hoisted it directly into the penalty area.
This rush is very fatal for Barcelona, because Fiorentina's three strikers are almost all in the big penalty area, and Barcelona only has three players, and in a three-to-three situation, Fiorentina's aerial dominance is much better than Barcelona's.
It was Puyol who defended Chen Yu, and Oleg was forced to defend Tony.
In the penalty area, the height advantage cannot be compensated for by other advantages, and the one-meter-ninety-six Toni easily grabbed a lion's head in the penalty area before everyone and pushed the ball to the bottom left corner of the goal.
"Ahh
There was already a lot of exclamation in the stands, because Toni had already stood on the line of the small penalty area when he was fighting for the top, and the header was close to a position that was almost a dead corner, and I am afraid that Valdés would not be able to return to the sky
However, Valdés miraculously swooped the ball out of the post.
"Ahh
The stands shouted again, but it was a cheer of surprise from the Barcelona fans.
The on-site narrator also gave Valdés a hymn," ...... Ahhhh......h
Another corner chance.
Fiore and Chen Yu exchanged glances, Chen Yu nodded to Tony, and then walked into the penalty area as if nothing happened, and the others did not notice that a tactical exchange had been completed between the three people.
After the whistle blew, Fiore suddenly unleashed a low flat ball, Chen Yu rushed from the crowd to the front to head back, and Toni quickly ran backwards.
This is a changing corner kick tactic, Barcelona was blinded by the sudden change, no one could keep up with Chen Yu's instant explosion, and no one could have imagined that Toni would run away from the middle to the back point.
At the back point, it was Harvey who was competing with Tony, yes, it was Harvey
As you can imagine, in front of the great midfielder Xavi, Toney is like a mountain.
And Tony actually jumped up at this time and slammed a header into the goal.
Valdés reacted quickly, and when all the defenders could only watch, Valdés pounced to press the ball under him, but before the Barcelona crowd had time to cheer, they found that the ball had slowly rolled under Valdés into the net
The fans in the stands have not yet discovered this detail, the Fiorentina fans scolded the mother and scolded Valdés for his perverted reaction, while the Barcelona fans began to cheer for St. Valdés again.
The referee interrupted the farce by pointing to the center circle to signal the ball to go in, and at this time the fans also saw the black and white elf who had done the prank from the net.
∶3
Fiorentina chased another point.
Tony, who scored the goal, shouted and rushed towards Chen Yu and Fiore, and the three hugged tightly together to celebrate the successful tactical combination.
Thousands of Fiorentina fans in the stands resurfaced like boats in the waves, shouting their fists and shouting in amazement.
Rijkaard shook his fist hard, replacing all the words that he had just praised Valdés in his heart with contempt, the ball was pressed under him, and he could still leak in, which was simply funny, Rijkaard looked at the goalkeeper coach Anzue Carlos, Carlos shrugged speechlessly, saying that he had no choice, he had taught everything he should have taught.
Barcelona are still ahead, but after the opponent scored this goal, there is hope of equalising, and the next game will certainly not be so easy.
Fiorentina coach Prandelli hugged everyone, after Toni scored this goal, Prandelli was relieved, and the loss at Camp Nou: 3 was considered a defeat, of course, the equalizer was better, but Prandelli just thought about it and didn't dare to have too many extravagant hopes.
In the VIP box, Labourta remained calm, but his mentality was not as natural as it used to be, because he saw the threat of the opponent's attack, and Barcelona lacked the same way to deal with it.
The mentality of being one goal behind is completely different from that of two goals behind, at this time, Fiorentina's spirit has come up, they see the hope of equalizing, and they have also found a way to deal with Barcelona, that is, be brave, do not be afraid of the opponent's counterattack, boldly use long passes, and solve the opponent with a header.
After Fiorentina scored the second goal, Barcelona did not dare to continue with the cross-pass back, and they increased the forward pass in the hope of extending the score and sealing the win.
The game reached 70 minutes, and the Fiorentina players were completely open, and the attack was bold and invested, except for Chen Yu, who was super physical, frequently returned to defense, Di Natale and Toney rarely came back, just waiting for the opportunity of the long pass in front
Due to Barcelona's fear, there were many defenders left in the backfield, and the two sides entered a stalemate stage, and each had a chance to score, but neither was able to break through the opponent's goal.
The two sides began to change players, trying to change the balance of the situation on the field through substitutions.
Messi, who was constantly threatened with fouls, was replaced by Rijkaard protectively, and he was replaced by the old demon Larsson. Defender Van Bommel was also replaced by Marquis and continued to increase the defensive intensity of the midfield.
Fiorentina, after replacing Pancarlo, replaced Brocki and brought on Montolivo.
In the blink of an eye, the game came to the 80th minute, and at this time, the situation also changed suddenly because of an attack by Barcelona.
In the 8l minute, Barcelona quickly counterattacked, Ronaldinho passed directly to the right side, Eto'o and Belletti did a wall-to-wall cooperation, Eto'o stepped forward at high speed, if he broke through, it would form a single knife, at this time the right-back Maggio had no choice but to pull Eto'o down, and the British referee Bennett took out a second yellow card to send Maggio off.
Maggio was sent off, Fiorentina could only use Donadale to play fullback, replace Di Natale, and replace the defender Pachenza, even so, Fiorentina's defensive ability in the middle was greatly weakened, Barcelona saw that Fiorentina had no offensive ability, replaced Oleg, and replaced Iniesta to strengthen the penetration of the middle, at this moment Fiorentina can only shrink again, with the dense defensive tactics of the first half to counter Barcelona's attack.
Maybe Barcelona saw that Fiorentina only had nine people, and was too careless when attacking, in the 87th minute of the game, a long pass from Fiorentina finally found Tony in the front, Toni was defended by Puyol, and the ball was easily headed over, and the ball was distributed to Chen Yu behind him.
Chen Yu poked the ball forward and sprinted at high speed, leaving Marquis behind who was trying to make a tackle.
However, Barcelona's players have formed a conditioned reflex for counterattacks due to playing offensive football, behind Toney's ferry, the two fullbacks began to shrink, after Chen Yu broke through Marquis, Van Bronckhorst and Belletti were almost at the top of the penalty area, Chen Yu smashed Huanglong in the middle, just about to be stopped by the two of them.
Chen Yu did not hesitate to change direction sharply and rushed straight to the left side of the penalty area.
Chen Yu's change of direction did not surprise Van Bronckhorst, but he just ran too hard, and after an emergency stop, his center of gravity was unstable and he stumbled.
It was not easy for Chen Yu to continue walking into the box, as Belletti was not accelerating to sprint from the left side, and Marques was also coming in from the middle.
However, Chen Yu did not continue to dribble the ball, which is the shooting area he is best at, because he is now bound to Piero's consciousness, and this is the "Piero area" that is rumored to be in the outside world. ”
If Chen Yu was replaced by Piero, Valdés and the defenders would definitely be prepared in advance, but standing in front of them was Chen Yu, and the Barcelona people's vigilance against Chen Yu's shot dropped by at least a third, and Valdés also moved to the near corner to block Chen Yu's shot.
Chen Yu understood how rare such an opportunity was and how much time was left, so he stepped on the ball like a juggling stop, and then directly rubbed a curling ball on the inside of his right foot and went straight to the back corner of the goal.
Valdés was still moving quickly to the near corner, but the ball flew in the opposite direction, you can imagine the surprise in Valdés's heart, his body was still moving to the left at this time, and his consciousness wanted to turn to the right, and the result of the quick reaction was that Valdés fell to the ground.
yes
Seeing Valdés fall, there was no one in front of the Barcelona goal who could do miracles, and all eyes were focused on the ball flying in the air.
The outcome of the game is likely to depend on the ball.
Barcelona fans pray not to score, otherwise it will be too ugly to play one more person at home and be forced to draw, and Fiorentina fans dare not blink their eyes, for fear of missing a wonderful goal.
In a very short time, the suspense disappeared and the ball flew into the net with great precision from the angle between the post and the crossbar.
3∶3
Chen Yu scored twice.
The Camp Nou, the European Theatre of Dreams, fell silent in an instant, and all the Barcelona fans stood in their seats as if they had been caught in Medusa's petrified magic.
“aIaI1… Chen Chen Chen Chen was equalised, and Fiorentina equalized
Chen Yu scored two great Florentine purple lilies......"
The Florentine narrator of the live narrator, Sans, roared with indulgence.
By the side of this commentator, the Chinese commentator Huang Jianxiang also roared passionately: "Ah, Chen Yu and Chen Yu scored again, beautiful, too beautiful, an accurate banana ball, 3:3 draw, 3:3 draw, there are only five minutes left in the game, Fiorentina equalized, this is at Camp Nou, this is the home of La Liga champion Barcelona, Chen Yu has caught up with the world footballer in terms of goals, Ronaldinho, can Fiorentina draw Barcelona?" If it really could, Florence would be too tough."
At this point, Prandelli was more excited than anyone else, and as he was directing the battle from the sidelines, he first rushed into the pitch and hugged the full-backs, then turned to hug his assistant coach and substitute.
"Equalised"
"Ah, it's almost a draw."
"It's so beautiful, so Barcelona can't be better"
"Is this the rhythm of a hat-trick?"
"Go, this is Barcelona, which fish belly do you think it is?"
The Fiorentina fans in the stands also talked loudly when they applauded, full of love and admiration for Chen Yu and Fiorentina.
Rijkaard angrily punched the windshield, and was equalized by the opponent at this time, which is simply too fucking uncomfortable, counting stoppage time, which is the U minute, even if Fiorentina still has 9 people, there is no guarantee of a goal, six minutes, Fiorentina must be back to defend all the way, I'm afraid there are not many chances to shoot from a distance.
The Barcelona players on the pitch were also depressed, with midfielders and strikers blaming defenders and goalkeepers, and defenders complaining about not pressing enough.
However, Barcelona are still in high spirits, and they have just won the La Liga title and they have a lot of confidence, and after a brief complaint, they quickly woke up to the cheers of the fans, ready to flood their opponents with a tidal wave of attacks.
Fiorentina's torment started from RR minutes, after the worst Florence everyone returned to the thirty-meter area, Toni became a central defender, Chen Yu became a midfielder, and all the full-backs became full-backs, any Barcelona bombarded them indiscriminately, Fiorentina's players just defended to the end, even if Barcelona sold flaws and deliberately gave Fiorentina a chance to attack, except for Chen Yu with the ball, other Fiorentina players did not attack, at this time, even the physical strength was gone, as long as the counterattack went out, The opponent's break could immediately form a goal, and with Iniesta, Barcelona's penetration in the middle is more delicate, and Fiorentina can understand the consequences of attacking the goal.
Fiorentina used flesh and blood to form an impregnable defence, under the bombardment of Barcelona, they withstood the U-minute, when Bennett blew the whistle for the end of the game, the tired legs like lead The Fiorentina players ran together, hugged each other, and celebrated the hard-won point.
The Barcelona players and fans were stunned, they couldn't accept the result that they couldn't win by playing 10 people, but they had to accept it, after a short stunned, the Barcelona players quickly walked back to the dressing room, and the Barcelona fans quickly left the field, and only the Fiorentina fans were left at the huge Camp Nou.
