The race has just begun.

Barcelona had possessed the ball for a while, were tackled on a close run to the front, and then Atletico Madrid launched a fast attack, with Mesut Ozil's pass finding the back of the net for Diego Costa, who came close to scoring.

When Valdés saved the ball, it was only four minutes into the game, but the switch between the two teams, one attack and one defense, could already show something.

Barcelona coach Pep Guardiola saw something, in fact, before the game, Guardiola did not think that the games were difficult to play, Atletico Madrid is not a strong team, he does not think that having a famous coach can make Atletico Madrid a strong team, let alone compared with the top European giants Barcelona.

But between the attack and defense of the two teams, Guardiola saw that the game was not easy to play.

Whether it is the advantage of sitting at home or the extraordinary performance of Atletico Madrid, Atletico Madrid has played well and given Barcelona a slap in the face.

If Valdés hadn't reacted quickly, the score had already been rewritten.

Atletico Madrid defended tightly, were very patient, switched between attack and defense very quickly, and were able to let go of their hands and feet when attacking, and pressed in one fell swoop, which is not a good team to deal with.

Pep Guardiola couldn't help but look to the other side, the Chinese was standing on the sidelines, watching the game with a serious expression.

Although he has no experience in playing against Wansheng, Guardiola has also heard of Wansheng's name, he does not think Wansheng can be better than himself, and he has also led Barcelona to glory and peak.

But now, Guardiola finds himself underestimating his opponents.

Judging from the offensive and defensive conversion just now, Atletico Madrid has been much stronger than last season, without introducing too many famous stars, it took one summer to make a team change a lot, even to the extent of stubbornly resisting Barcelona at home...... This Chinese really has some skills!

――――

It didn't take long for Pep Guardiola to discover that Wansheng had more than 'a little' ability.

While many Barcelona fans were still scared of Diego Costa's shot, the game continued, and Atletico Madrid couldn't take advantage of the corner, but the ball was cleared by Barcelona defender Puyol and it was at the feet of Atletico Madrid.

After that, Atletico Madrid launched wave after wave of attacks against Barcelona.

Atletico Madrid wanted to use the opening time to find an opportunity to attack Barcelona and take a quick lead.

Pep Guardiola wants to win the game, and Wan Sheng wants to win the game as well.

Neither side accepts a draw.

So Atletico Madrid kept attacking Barcelona.

Barcelona are not in a hurry, they think that as long as they survive this period of attack, the initiative of the game will return to their hands, which is the 'convention' of Barcelona against other teams.

They have become accustomed to it.

In European football, Barcelona have the best possession, few teams can compare with them, even if the opponent is very aggressive, their own side is suppressed for a while, but any attack has a break, the game has just begun, they have a lot of chances.

So when Atletico Madrid continued to attack, Barcelona slightly shrunk the defense, even if there were occasional counterattack opportunities, they would give Messi, Iniesta and others to attack, and they slowly played at the back.

Barcelona are a team that are good at attacking, but in reality, they are also very tight defensively, otherwise how could they have conceded the fewest goals last season?

But as time passed, Barcelona didn't feel right.

Atletico Madrid's attack did not weaken at all, pressing frantically whenever they had the chance, and for a while they were almost playing around the Barcelona goal.

Barcelona became very passive, and even Messi and Iniesta had to retreat to the defense.

Five minutes passed.

Ten minutes passed.

Until the 20th minute of the game, Atletico Madrid continued to attack under heavy pressure, and there was no intention of slowing down and taking a breath.

As the players get used to the game, so does the attacking threat they have.

――――

"Maurice! Shot! ”

With the shouting of Juan Andrés broadcast at the Calderón Stadium, Morris hit the goal directly from outside the Barcelona penalty area.

The ball spun in a small arc towards the goal.

Valdés was undoubtedly Barcelona's biggest contributor to the opening day, dismantling several Atletico Madrid shots.

This time Valdés was still in a good performance, jumping sideways and throwing his arms wide to make a brilliant block.

The soccer ball pops up on the bottom line.

Atletico Madrid were awarded another corner.

"How many times has this been!?"

Juan Andrés's flat voice also looked a little excited, he didn't expect Atletico Madrid to press Barcelona, which is simply incredible.

As a true Atletico Madrid fan, Juan Andrés was only excited, "Valdés played well, but Barcelona were completely suppressed. From the beginning of the game until now, Barcelona have only had a pitiful shot on goal, while our heroes have already threatened the Barcelona goal four times! ”

"Our heroes are so good that they can't hold Barcelona up......"

In Juan Andles' emotional words, all the Atletico Madrid fans were also excited, and they also did not expect that the team could perform so well against a strong Barcelona side.

It's been more than 20 minutes!

For more than 20 minutes, most of the time it was Atletico Madrid attacking, and Barcelona was suppressed and could only shrink into the half.

Although they have not scored so far, it is difficult for even Real Madrid to suppress Barcelona like this.

Sidelines.

Wan Sheng's expression is serious, he is very satisfied with the team's performance, the only thing is that he has not scored so far.

Many fans think that Atletico Madrid can suppress Barcelona very well, but Wansheng wants to win, so in comparison, the goal is much more crucial.

The current situation seems to be in Atletico Madrid's favor, but it is the best time to score goals, and it will be very difficult for Barcelona to recover and then it will be very difficult to play again, after all, the team is not better than Barcelona.

Barcelona has more experience, more tacit cooperation, normal fighting, and Wan Sheng is not sure of winning.

Atletico Madrid's advantage, to put it bluntly, is the word 'surprise', the team's tactics are amazing, Barcelona certainly did not expect the team's attack to be so fierce, their impression of the team is still stuck in last season, even if they coach, they will be prepared, but they will not expect the team to continue to maintain non-stop suppression.

In other words, Barcelona was careless.

It is precisely because of Barcelona's carelessness that the team has the opportunity to suppress Barcelona, but if there is a chance not to score, is it not a waste of opportunity?

All you need is a goal!

――――

"Don't give your opponent a chance to breathe!"

Looking at the time, Wan Sheng gritted his teeth and waved his hands forward towards the court, allowing the team to continue to strengthen the attack.

The players on the field received the order and continued to press the Barcelona goal, several front-court players kept plugging in, looking for opportunities in the penalty area, and the players on the periphery of the penalty area also came to shoot from a distance.

Barcelona pay a lot of attention to defending in the box.

In this game, Atletico Madrid lined up in a 4231 formation, and the starting striker was only Diego Costa, who was not very famous, but Barcelona kept an eye on him, because Diego Costa scored two goals in the first round.

Many people know that Wan Sheng is the kind of manager who is good at reusing young forwards.

At present, Aguero has a conflict with Wansheng and has been 'refrigerated' by Atletico Madrid, so Diego Costa has been pushed out as the main striker.

The Brazilian striker is definitely not to be underestimated.

But what Barcelona didn't notice was that Atletico Madrid's shots from the edge of the area were also quite threatening.

In the attack just now, Atletico Madrid threatened the Barcelona goal with two long-range shots from the perimeter, one kicked by Morris and the other kicked by midfielder Raul Garcia.

However, in most people's impressions, long-range shots have a bit of luck, so Barcelona don't care too much about them at all, and sometimes Atletico Madrid players shoot on the perimeter, and they even have a laissez-faire attitude, after all, the chances of scoring from a long shot are not great, but many times it is equivalent to giving the ball back to the opponent.

In the 29th minute of the game, Atletico Madrid launched another wave of attacks.

The ball passed to Morris.

Morris was 30 metres from goal and he only took one step forward before he was tangled up by Sergio Busquets, who has a lot of experience defending, and he knew that the England player in front of him had good footwork and could be shaken off if he got close to the opponent, so he was just interfering on the side.

Morris made a foot swing.

Busquets wasn't fooled, he didn't even make a move, as if he just let Morris pass the ball.

Morris saw that the other party was not fooled, so he made a foot swing again, Busquets didn't take it seriously at all, he had already thought about it, the opponent wanted to pass the ball, after all, in the Atletico Madrid team, the guy in front of him was the most threatening, and he even showed a gap and let Morris pass.

Then, Moregi swung his right leg again.

Busquets simply ignored it.

But this time, Morris's right foot was heavily pumped behind the ball!

Sergio Busquets was taken aback and immediately didn't take it seriously, this position was almost 30 meters from the goal, and it was difficult for the opponent to score the ball even if he had a shot.

But what he didn't expect was that his position blocked the view of goalkeeper Valdés, causing Valdés to not see Morris shoot at the first time.

By the time Valdés saw the ball, his movements were completely half a beat slower!

Valdés did his best to make a save.

But the ball was so fast and angled that he only had time to rub his fingertips with it, but it still flew forward tenaciously and plunged headlong into the side netting.

Beneath the shaking of the net was Valdés' widening eyes of despair...... (To be continued.) )
