Chapter 84: It's worth a try
Zhou Yi's through ball almost penetrated the defense of La Masia's youth B team, but this did not attract the attention of the La Masia youth B team players. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Because the last time they met, the Chinese team also got a great opportunity at the beginning, He Ying broke through with the ball and shot, and the football almost flew into the goal.
That attack was more threatening than this one.
But the result?
It turned out that the attack was a stroke of luck, and their strength was simply vulnerable.
The final score of 12:0 is a good proof of this.
So this time, China's straight kick did not make the players of the La Masia Youth B team have any special feeling.
※※※
The throw-in was thrown, and Zhou Yi turned around and passed the football to He Ying.
This time, instead of turning his back to the attack, He Ying faced Muniesa.
The centre-back, who had just spoiled his good fortune, was at a good distance from him.
He Ying thought of what Zhou Yi said before the match, Munesa had just recovered from a serious injury, and he was afraid of being injured again......
Thinking of this, He Ying did not pass the football out again, but suddenly started to dribble the ball and rushed to the penalty area of the La Masia Youth B team.
Munesa didn't expect the other party to want to overtake him one-on-one, and he quickly met the enemy.
But just when the two people were about to make contact, He Ying suddenly made an emergency stop, and used the outside of his right foot to flick the football to the outside and change direction!
Munesa followed suit.
He Ying's right foot buckled the football back!
Munesa followed and then changed back.
This time, He Ying did not change direction again, and directly broke through with the ball.
Munesa sped up to post He Ying.
In the end, under his interference, He Ying's kick was high.
There was another round of applause.
Of course, this applause is not for He Ying, but for Munesa.
"Successful defense! beautiful!" shouted the crowd of onlookers.
He Ying ran back, and Zhou Yi came up: "How is it?"
"It was flexible. ”
"That's what makes him special, but he's going to turn around a lot with you and he's going to put a lot of pressure on his knees. If you continue to rush him like this, he will either get hurt or give up with you. Zhou Yi said.
He Ying nodded.
Zhou Yi accelerated and ran back to his position.

On Barcelona's side, La Masia's technical director Garcia was also pleased with Munessa's performance, and not long after the game started, Munesa had already defended quite successfully twice.
This kid is another masterpiece of La Masia's academy. Garcia believes that Muniesa, who has returned from injury, will soon be on the fast track and will be promoted to the Under-17s, and after a good performance at the Under-17s, he will go to the Under-19s, followed by Barcelona B. After a few years of gaining enough experience, we can move up to the first team and learn from Puyol's side, so that when Puyol retires, we will have no shortage of successors at centre-back.
In Garcia's mind, a wonderful blueprint for the future has been sketched out for Muñeza.

In the next game, because of the light enemy, there was no situation on the scene where the La Masia Youth B team pressed the Chinese team to play, so that the Chinese team couldn't even raise their heads.
On the contrary, the Chinese team and them have offense and defense against each other.
In the attack of the Chinese team, Zhou Yi finally sent the football to He Ying's feet again and again.
Let He Ying go and fight Munesa alone.
At first, Munesa occupied the top.
But He Ying's relentless attempts to break through him also began to make Munesa feel the pressure.
Because this He Ying is not simply breaking through with the ball, but will constantly change direction and try to shake him off.
Munesa didn't ask anyone else to help, he felt he was enough alone. A couple of successful defences in the opening hours gave him that confidence.
However, the constant retreat in defense and the constant change of direction also made it difficult for Munieza to gradually struggle.
After all, he had just recovered from his injury, and his body was not back to his best.
He Ying also felt the change in the opponent in front of him.
No matter how he changed his direction to break through before, he would stick to his body.
But on the last two occasions, he noticed that Muniesa's pace was a little slow, which is difficult for outsiders to see.
But He Ying, as an opponent against him, can feel it.
He thought of Zhou Yi's words again.
That kid was like a god......
※※※
When the game reached the twentieth minute, it was a bit of a surprise that the score was still 0:0.
Everyone thinks it's normal for the Chinese team to not score, but the La Masia Youth B team didn't score either, so it's not normal......
La Masia's youth B team is still very dangerous when attacking, but why didn't they score?
Because the Chinese team's backline is very good.
For this game, Hao Dong practiced defense for a week.
If you want to draw a relatively good end at the end, at least you can't lose too badly, so defense is very important.
Guo Nu has performed well in a series of previous competitions, and although he is still a little rough at times, his physical ability has made up for a lot of problems.
His explosive power allowed him to be quick and accurate, and the attacking player hesitated to take the ball, and his feet arrived, and then poked the ball away from the opponent's feet.
At the same time, due to his fast speed and flexible turning, he is not at a disadvantage when defending one-on-one.
He is the team's first gate in defence.
Behind him there is also a Sun Pan.
It was also in the past two months that the performance has gradually improved as the game progressed.
Like Guo Nu, Sun Pan has obvious problems of his own, but his strengths are so strong that they cover up his shortcomings to a certain extent.
Sun Pan's excellent reflexes and his characteristics have given him a great range of defense, ensuring that the team has not conceded a goal so far.
Failing to score for 20 minutes also put La Masia's youth B team under pressure.
Only then did they feel that their opponents this time seemed to be a little different from the last time they met.
The more they plan to exert their strength, the more they will kill this opponent in one go.
No matter how different this team is from the last time they met, there is one thing that will not change, and that is the outcome.
They firmly believe that as long as they get serious, the Chinese team will definitely lose by a double-digit scoreline.
Because of their pressure, the Chinese team had to shrink back and defend first.
La Masia's youth B team once compressed the Chinese team into half of the court, so it looked as if the Chinese team was really going to concede goals soon.
With every attack by La Masia's youth B team, the parents of those youth B teams off the field would let out a burst of cheers to cheer their children on.
This scene must be familiar to Zhou Yi, because during the national finals, the situation on the sidelines was also like this......
Although the current situation is indeed a little critical, Zhou Yi is not panicking, he is still constantly observing the situation on the court.
From the overlook chart in his mind, Zhou Yi can see that the formation of La Masia's youth B team is getting more and more admitted.
At this time, if the Chinese team gets the football, it is not suitable to advance slowly and logically, it must be fast and counterattack.
Now, Zhou Yi is waiting for an opportunity.
But first of all, he had to make sure that his goal would not concede, and he set his sights on Sun Pan.
※※※
In the face of the stormy attack of the La Masia youth B team, Sun Pan did not have a sad face, on the contrary, he was very excited, which can be seen from the expression on his face - he always has an excited smile on his face.
This is Sun Pan's characteristic, the stronger the opponent, the more excited he is. He is a nervous (sick) goalkeeper, who can not only rush out of the penalty area to participate in the defense, but also cause the rear gate to open and be knocked out by the opponent. They are also able to save shots that are very difficult and almost impossible to save.
He is not afraid of strong opponents, and his ability to resist pressure is also super strong.
Although the basic skills are a little worse, the basic skills can be practiced, and those spiritual things are the necessary qualities to become a world-class goalkeeper.
※※※
La Masia's youth B team entered the Chinese team's penalty area to shoot, but the football was blocked by Guo Nu.
La Masia Youth B won a corner as a result.
When the opponent player ran to prepare for a corner kick, Zhou Yi raised his arm, and then shouted to his teammates: "Prepare to counterattack, everyone!"
Xu Yang and Hao Dong on the field heard Zhou Yi's words, and they were surprised and had to admire Zhou Yi's decision.
The corner was a real opportunity for us to counter-attack......
Zhou Yi shouted so loudly, and he was not worried that their offensive strategy would be seen through by the other party, because it was impossible for the other party to understand Chinese at all.
After hearing Zhou Yi's shout, the teammates also turned their heads to look at him, and when they saw Zhou Yi's raised fist, someone looked at the opponent's half and found that the opponent's half was very empty. Only two full-backs and a goalkeeper were still in the half, and everyone else rushed to the Chinese half.
It was a good opportunity to fight back.
He Ying didn't go back to participate in the defense when he heard this, so he waited in the middle line.
Next, it's up to Zhou Yi.
※※※
After the corner kick was taken, Sun Pan yelled: "Rebound!"
Then he jumped high, stretched out his long hand, and directly plucked the football that was still high in the air, without giving the La Masia Youth B players a chance to compete for the top.
After he fell, he didn't hold the football and be complacent that he had once again defended the opponent's attack, but looked up to find Zhou Yi.
Zhou Yi was just outside the box, in an open space between the top of the penalty arc and the center circle, where there was not a single La Masia youth B player.
Sun Pan didn't have time to continue running, if he bypassed the players on both sides in front of him, he was afraid that Zhou Yi's vacancy would be gone. So he threw the football directly to Zhou Yi with a few players.
"Next!"
Zhou Yi unloaded the ball thrown by Sun Pan with his chest, and at the same time, without waiting for the ball to land, he got up and passed the football directly to Yang Muge, and at the same time he turned around and ran forward.
After Yang Muge received the ball, he did not pass the football to Zhou Yi, but to Li Xiang on the side.
Li Xiang rushed forward with the ball, and the Chinese team counterattacked!
"Okay!" Xu Yang on the sidelines shouted excitedly.
One of the two La Masia players who remained at the back immediately rushed to Li Xiang and blocked in front of him. The rest of La Masia's youth B players are also quickly returning to the defense.
"Li Xiang!"
Li Xiang, who was thinking about whether to pass the other party or what to do, suddenly heard Zhou Yi's shout, and as soon as he turned his head, he saw Zhou Yi hooking his hand towards him in the middle circle.
So Li Xiang kicked the football sideways.
After passing the ball, he continued to run forward, running towards the La Masia youth B team who was blocking in front of him, making a stance that wanted to go straight behind him.
The full-back of La Masia's youth team B pair really hesitated, and did not go to the middle to help defend, but followed Li Xiang to retreat.
Xu Yang and others on the sidelines saw Li Xiang's pass, but they all sighed.
Because Li Xiang passed the ball too far back, it did not pass to the front of Zhou Yi's run, but to Zhou Yi's back.
Zhou Yi, who was running forward, had to stop, then turned around and returned to receive the ball.
But in this way, how can the counterattack be fought?
Not to mention, the players of the La Masia Youth B team are quickly returning to the defense, and this ball is passed back, doesn't it just happen to hit the La Masia players head-on?
For example, their midfielder Bacari Mendes is now very close to the football, he accelerates towards the football, and when he thinks the distance is right, he puts his foot in the tackle and shovels towards the football.
Just when all the players and coaches of the Chinese team off the field thought that this counterattack was over.
Zhou Yi rushed to the back of the football first, and at the same time stretched out his right foot to pull the football in the direction of his body.
Bacari Mendes' tackle was just in the air!
After pulling the ball, Zhou Yi, in order to counteract the inertia of his body's stiffness, took advantage of the situation to make a Marseille maneuver, stepping on the football to bypass the remaining momentum of Mendes' flying tackle.
"Beautiful!"
Someone shouted.
Zhou Yi was still very calm in a very difficult situation and regained control of the football with his skills.
When a quick counter-attack couldn't be played, and not losing possession, it was already the best result.
La Masia's two defenders had already returned to the half, among which Munesa was the fastest and had retreated to the front of He Ying, which was also because He Ying did not let go of the run - when he saw that Li Xiangqiu did not pass well, he did not continue to run, but looked back at Zhou Yi.
He had to wait for Zhou Yi to have a result before he could arrange his actions.
※※※
After Zhou Yi Marseille brought the football out, he immediately passed the football out again, this time he passed it to Yang Muge, who was inserted to answer him.
No matter when, Yang Muge is Zhou Yi's most reliable partner, and when the situation is unfavorable, passing the football to him can reduce his pressure and reorganize the attack.
After passing the ball, Zhou Yiran forward.
Yang Muge also quickly passed the football back.
At this time, there were no more La Masia players by Zhou Yi's side.
Zhou Yi, who received the ball again, didn't even look up to observe, and as soon as he received the ball, he slammed his foot again and sent the football out.
This time he passed the football to He Ying.
He didn't choose to return the cross to stabilize the situation, but still insisted on playing fast break.
Because even if Munesa is back in place, Barcelona still don't have many defenders at the back, and they have just experienced a wild run into position, and the defensive line is still not firmly established.
It's still worth a try!
"Isn't it too urgent?" Xu Yang couldn't help but ask such a question.
Hao Dong didn't answer him, because he didn't care about answering and thinking at this time.
He Ying had already received the ball, and now in front of him was Marc Munieza, who had ruined his shots several times before!
