The second half of the game just started.

Everyone could see that Barcelona had increased the speed of their passes and the overall formation had moved forward.

"Barcelona are going on the attack!"

On the commentary bench, the Catalan commentator cheered up, and in his opinion, as long as Barcelona were to attack, no team could resist it.

The home team's fans were also excited.

The cheers from the stands at the Camp Nou resounded through the sky, creating a furious wave across the pitch that swept towards the chests of all the players.

The roar of nearly 100,000 people, no matter who is in it, will inevitably be affected.

In the midst of such violent cheers.

Barcelona unleashed wave after wave of attacks into the Malaga penalty area.

Barcelona's offensive was so impressive that it made Malaga's supporters worry.

"Messi .. Shot!! Duan Xuan exclaimed.

Although Caballero took the ball off in the end, Barcelona's offensive this time still made Duan Xuan feel uneasy.

"Malaga can't be beaten passively, they have to fight back, otherwise. It's hard for them to hold up to forty-five minutes. ”

Of course, Malaga is very clear about this.

But they need to wait for the right moment.

Yelo's position retreated deeply.

He was the only counter-attacking point in this game – and even then, Barcelona were the best of the bunch.

Busquets stared at Yelo and said nothing.

Barcelona's two full-backs also took turns to play in the midfield position – a feat for Pep Guardiola.

Generally speaking, the strategy of a striker who pushes back is to let the centre-back go up.

However, Pep Guardiola opted to take turns with two full-backs in this game.

This is because he does not want to have a shortage of central defenders, and at the same time plays the characteristics of fast and strong follow-up ability at full-back.

That said, Barcelona played a bit like the Italian-style 3.5 back play.

The role of full-backs in modern football tactics is becoming increasingly important.

The most popular in the classical era was the 3223 formation, which was the famous MW position.

Three defenders, two midfielders, responsible for defending, two forward midfielders, three forwards, responsible for attacking.

The division of labor is very clear, and the well water does not interfere with the river water.

Defenders are responsible for defense, and forwards are responsible for offense,

But with the development of the times, such a rigid strategy is clearly becoming more and more outdated.

As a result, all sorts of new tactics and changes in player positioning appeared.

The most classic is nothing more than the 442 formation that many English teams are still insisting on playing, with 4 defenders, 4 forwards, and 2 forwards.

Such a formation can make good use of the width of the court, and can be advanced to the front court through the attack on both sides, play cross tactics, and the two center forwards can also ensure the offensive firepower in the middle.

Of course.

In Spain, where control is pursued at the feet, the 433 stance is starting to dominate.

In Italy, where defense is important, many coaches have begun to study the impact of full-backs on attack in order to accumulate a numerical advantage in attack.

The most classic is the 3.5 back tactic often used by managers such as Lippi.

In the Italian 3.5 back tactic, one full-back presses up, and the other full-back recycles into the centre-back line, forming a three-centre-back position with two centre-backs.

But in the hands of Pep Guardiola.

The recycled full-back position was up front and formed a double midfield position with Sergio Busquets.

This is undoubtedly a first-of-its-kind feat.

However, the effect is very good, at least for now, Ye Luo has not been able to create much of a threat.

But Ye Luo is not in a hurry, he is still running, looking for opportunities.

His mentality is also the mentality of Malaga now.

The team's defensive pressure is indeed high, and Barcelona's attack is indeed ferocious.

But after so many strong conversations, the mentality of the players has also been developed - or how to say that high-intensity games are the best training for a team and players.

Now the players in Malaga are convinced that they can kill Barcelona with just one chance!

Because, their captain Ye Luo, will definitely be able to seize the opportunity.

As long as Ye Luo is standing in front, as long as Ye Luo is on the court.

The players in Malaga believe that.

I have to say.

The power of trust is powerful.

Even if the current situation is very passive, even if Barcelona's offensive is getting more and more fierce, as long as they believe that Yelo can bring goals, they will not be defeated!

The waves crashed down overwhelmingly.

Malaga is like a submerged reef, still hard after the crashing waves.

Barcelona opened fifteen minutes after a storm.

The score on the field is still 0-0.

For 15 minutes, Málaga had little chance of possession.

Barcelona are under constant pressure.

It did create some thrilling situations.

But it was all defused by the defenders of Malaga.

Everyone is desperate to defend, using every part of their body to block every shot from Barcelona!

The Catalan commentator's face was a little solemn: "The defense of Malaga is too dense."

As the game goes on.

The sharpness of Barcelona's attack is also starting to slow down – don't think that such a fast-paced attack and defense won't drain Barcelona's energy.

In fact.

The current situation is a double test of Barcelona's physical and mental strength.

Many Barcelona players are starting to feel a little anxious, and their tempers are getting more and more irritable.

On the contrary, it was Malaga who began to gradually gain opportunities to possess the ball, attack, and counterattack.

The balance of offense and defense began to tilt slowly.

Sixty-fifth minute of the game.

Málaga began to make substitutions.

Manuel Pellegrini came on for Ruud van Nistelrooy for Juanito.

So.

The midfield midfield combination is Camacho and Tulalang, while Joaquin and Cazorla are separated from each other, and Yelo and Ruud van Nistelrooy are in front and back.

This substitution is obviously a signal that Malaga is starting to exert its strength on the offensive end!

Ruud van Nistelrooy's appearance greatly relieved the pressure on Yelo.

This also makes Malaga's attack more threatening!

However, Barcelona also made a targeted strategy - that is, to let the two full-backs try not to press and assist.

But in this way, Barcelona's own attack will inevitably suffer.

So, after Malaga withstood Barcelona's onslaught in the opening 20 minutes of the second half, the situation on the pitch turned into a tug-of-war.

Neither side gets any chance to counter-attack, and each attack must face the opponent's complete defensive system.

Other words.

For both parties.

We must be prepared for positional warfare.

The game went from a one-sided onslaught from Barcelona to a battle between the two teams in midfield.

The game continued into the 80th minute, and the score was still 0-0.

The Barcelona fans in the stands at the Camp Nou are not as loud as before, because many Barcelona fans are standing in the stands, looking at the stadium with solemn faces, anxious, and they don't have much energy to make any noise.

And the mentality of Barcelona fans, in fact, also reflects the predicament that Barcelona is facing now.

Pep Guardiola couldn't sit still, he stood on the sidelines, his brow furrowed.

Málaga had a calm performance in this game, they used their lead to wear away Barcelona's attacking spirit with their defense, and then switched to attacking hands to turn the game around, and now both sides are engaged in fierce battles in midfield, with players from both sides constantly colliding, fouling and even clashing in midfield.

Every time a game stops, it's all about game time, and the less time there is, the more anxious Barcelona becomes.

Race time is getting less and less.

For both sides, the more anxious the scene became.

Pep Guardiola looked at the game time and took a deep breath.

He waved his right hand forward.

This is the signal for Barcelona's general attack.

Barcelona's players reacted quickly after getting Pep Guardiola's signal.

The most noticeable change was the position of the two full-backs, Abidal and Alves, who pressed through the half at the same time, and the full-backs were used as wingers.

Increasing the number of attackers in the front court is the most common means of breaking the balance between the two sides.

But it also means that Barcelona have to take a certain amount of risk.

The game was ten minutes away.

Barcelona have to score.

There is no way back for them!

"We just need one goal! One goal!! ”

The Catalan commentators were also in a hurry.

The eighty-fifth minute of the game.

Málaga got a chance to counter-attack.

However, Barcelona's side reacted quickly.

By the time Málaga's counter-attack reached the 30-metre zone, many of Barcelona's defenders had already been in place.

Both full-backs are back.

Meanwhile, Sergio Busquets and Xavi are back in position.

And Malaga here.

Cazorla was on the ball, Joaquín on the flank, Ruud van Nistelrooy was also pulling diagonally to widen the attack, and at the top of the middle was Yelo, who was entangled by Puyol and Pique.

Joaquín was in a wide position, with Abidal stuck on his diagonal line in the box.

On the other side, Alves was defending, and he was under a lot of pressure defensively, because Ruud van Nistelrooy was pulling in this direction and Camacho was cutting diagonally in this way.

He can't do both, so he can only stand between the flanks and the wings so that he can react to whoever the ball goes to.

When Cazorla took the ball and looked up.

The opportunity to fight back is gone.

It's a positional battle again.

By now, both sides are actually very jealous.

Especially for Barcelona, they want to attack, but they are worried about defensive problems, and if they concede a goal at this time, then Barcelona will be finished.

And for Malaga.

They really just need one goal.

A game-killing goal!

Cazorla couldn't keep the ball at his feet for too long, and the rest of Barcelona's players weren't stakes on the pitch.

However, the situation in front of Cazorla is actually not good, most of the players are defending, and any pass looks ordinary and not enough to have the effect of tearing up the defence.

So what to do?

Cazorla was accustomed to looking at Yelo's position.

Ye Luo did not stand still in the penalty area, and the opportunity could only come out when he was running.

He turned, ran to Cazorla, and raised his hand.

Seeing that Yelo took the initiative to ask for the ball, Cazorla did not hesitate and passed the ball to Yelo's feet.

The Barcelona players also know that for most of the pitch, the players from Malaga will look for the place of Yelo.

Because Ye Luo's threat in the front court is too great.

When the ball is at his feet, it creates chances.

Puyol and Pique didn't dare to slack off.

They immediately rushed up, one left and one right, forming a flanking attack on Ye Luo.

It's not just Puyol and Pique, Alves and Sergio Busquets are also eyeing Yelo.

They all know that Yelo has now scored 23 Champions League goals and he will certainly be looking to extend his record. Yelo also tends to shoot himself for most of the time in this area.

Everyone knows how powerful Ye Luo is.

In the last round of the league, he had just beaten Real Madrid with a hat-trick to help Málaga rise to the top of the table.

Barcelona are the defending champions, but they have been beaten by Malaga and Real Madrid in the league this season.

Real Madrid, in particular, won at home to Barcelona this season, and Mourinho's transformation of Real Madrid was quite successful.

Ye Luo can still score a hat trick in the face of such a defensive line, which can be called a god.

What's more, Ye Luo also played well in the face of Barcelona, and the painful memories of the first few encounters made the Barcelona players definitely dare not underestimate Ye Luo.

When he saw Cazorla pass the ball to Yelo, Alves shrank down the middle, forgetting that he still had Ruud van Nistelrooy by his side, and instead turned and pounced on Yelo.

Because at this time, Ye Luo had already received the ball and was turning around.

Instead of stopping the ball, Yelo turned with the ball on the inside of his foot, which is his standard action before he is about to shoot.

Turn around, volley.

Near the penalty line, no one dared to let Ye Luo shoot like this.

So when he saw Ye Luo about to turn around, Alves rushed up directly, because the direction Ye Luo turned around was the area he was in.

Almost everyone thought that Yelo would definitely shoot on his own.

There are many reasons for this.

The first is that Yelo is Malaga's top scorer and has unlimited fire, and his shots account for the vast majority of Malaga's total shots, so Yelo has a strong desire to attack the goal, which is clear to everyone - otherwise he would not have scored so many goals.

Secondly, Yelo will definitely want to continue his scoring record and the number of consecutive goals he has scored in every Champions League game this season.

So far, we have scored in 10 consecutive Champions League games!

This is also a record in the Champions League.

Therefore.

No one would doubt what choice Ye Luo would make.

He's going to shoot!

Yelora turned around and looked up to see three defenders in front of him, with Sergio Busquets and Xavi on the flanks.

He couldn't see the goal.

Or rather.

He couldn't see the line that could be connected between the football and the goal.

Of course he can force a shot and if he's lucky, he can hit the ball in goal.

But in this way, there is a high probability that an opportunity will be wasted.

At this time.

Ye Luo saw the vacant Fanny in the spare time.

Pass the ball to Ruud van Nistelrooy and he'll get a better shot than himself.

Although this is the case.

His record of consecutive Champions League goals could be interrupted as a result.

The question didn't pop into Yelo's mind.

Because for him.

Reaching the Champions League final is far more important than the record.

If there is any accident in this game because of what kind of record you have, it will be like picking up sesame seeds and losing watermelons

In the eyes of the Barcelona players, when Yelo lifted his right foot, it was a sign that he was about to shoot.

Everyone's hearts tightened.

In this moment.

Pique, Puyol, Sergio Busquets, Xavi and Alves all made defensive moves.

The two centre-backs immediately made a move to block the shooting route, and Alves pounced to reduce the angle of Yelo's shot as much as possible.

Xavi and Sergio Busquets, meanwhile, both opted to crash into Yelo from the flank and disrupt Yelo's shot.

When Sergio Busquets hit Yelo with his shoulder, he sensed that Yelo didn't finish the shot because it didn't feel the same way.

Busquets was overjoyed.

This time the defense was successful!

The commentators exclaimed.

"Yelo. Pass!!?? ”

Almost all the commentators thought that in that position Yelo would choose his own shot.

But in fact, it is not.

At the moment when Busquets crashed into Yelo.

Ye Luo gently flicked the ball to the right with the outside of his right instep.

Meanwhile.

Ruud van Nistelrooy, who has been aiming at Barcelona's backline and pressing the offside line to avoid allowing himself to be offside, quickly stepped forward!

In fact, he wanted to rush up and make up the shot.

At that moment, he himself thought that Ye Luo was going to shoot.

Because Yelo is surrounded at this time, it is great that he can control the ball, not to mention observe the surrounding situation, Fanny also knows that if Yelo sends the ball to his feet, it is actually a better chance, but he does not expect that Yelo can observe his own movement in this electric lightning.

So he's more of a forward to pounce and shoot.

This also led to the speed with which he cut forward, and it just so happened that Yelo's kick appeared in front of him, and Vanney barely needed to adjust after the start.

"Offside!!"

Xavi raised his arm in defence and signalled to the referee and linesman that Ruud van Nistelrooy was in an offside position.

However, neither the referee nor the linesman said anything.

"It's not offside! The combination of Yelo and Vanney is just right! Andres exclaimed.

At the Camp Nou, there were boos, and in the midst of the boos, a lot of screams were even heard.

Many Barcelona fans clasped their heads in their hands and looked at the pitch in despair.

Ruud van Nistelrooy didn't plan to stop the ball, he adjusted his pace on the run to get himself in a comfortable position to shoot.

Puyol's reaction was quick, and he didn't care if Ruud van Nistelrooy was offside, just turned around and rushed over.

However, Vanney didn't give Puyol a chance, he ran two steps and directly picked up a right-footed volley!

When Yelo got the ball.

Valdés stood in the middle of the goal, his full attention was on Yelo, he judged that if Yelo wanted to shoot, it was very likely that he would have to play in the opposite direction, because there were several players standing there in the near corner, it was not easy to penetrate, and if Yelo wanted to shoot, the direction of the far post was the only way.

Therefore, when Ye Luo raised his right foot, he couldn't help but move a step to his right, that is, to the left of Ye Luo's shot, in order to get himself a better save position.

But at this very moment.

Ye Luo passed the ball!

Valdés was so shocked that he hurried over to block the near corner.

But he didn't expect him to pounce just now, but Vanney's shot was headed towards the far corner!!

Valdés was still on the move, and in such a short period of time, he couldn't react and could only watch the ball pass under his feet.

"Ball"

The soccer ball hit the side netting, but it was from inside the goal!

"Fanny! The ball is in!! Malaga leads Barcelona 1-0 away from home! This goal put Barcelona in a desperate situation!! Malaga is already 3-1 ahead on aggregate!! Barcelona will have to score at least two goals in the remaining minutes to send the game to extra time!! ”

"It's a lore!!"

Duan Xuan was chanting.

Although, there are still a few minutes left before the game ends.

But now Duan Xuan, who was excited, couldn't care about rational analysis.

The word lore, blurted out!

Ruud van Nistelrooy, who shot the ball into the goal, looked at the ball inside the goal, then looked at the sideline, the linesman did not raise the flag, the referee's whistle sounded, and he pointed to the center circle!

Goal validation!!

Fanny was just about to celebrate when he was knocked to the ground by Yelora.

"Well done!!"

"Ye Luo has passed! Yes, in that position he chose to pass, it turned out that his choice of pass was correct, at that moment almost all Barcelona players did not expect Yelo to pass, yes, who would have thought that the top scorer of Malaga did not have a kick of his own when facing the goal head-on! ”

"It was this unexpected pass that broke the equilibrium on the pitch, and the Barcelona players stared at Yelo and forgot about Ruud van Nistelrooy, the king of the small penalty area!"

"Ruud van Nistelrooy is very decisive in his shot, even though he is now 35 years old and his physical function is not as good as before, but he will not miss such an opportunity in the penalty area!! A brilliant volley into the far corner that pierced the Barcelona goal! ”

"One to zero! Malaga took the lead at the Camp Nou, and the goal not only offset Barcelona's away goal, but also stretched the aggregate score to just three to one! Barcelona will have to score two goals in the last few minutes to send the game to extra time, and God will have to count on their side to qualify. ”

'Yelo gave up his chance to extend his record and possibly extend his Champions League scoring streak by passing the ball to Ruud van Nistelrooy, who was in a better position. People may find it strange that Yelo has the impression that he is a player with a strong desire to shoot, but in fact, he actually has a lot of assists, and this season Yelo has 15 assists, which is one more than his teammate Cazorla, and is second in the assist list in La Liga behind Messi with 16 assists. He's not actually a lone player. ”

At a time when the players in Malaga were celebrating their goals like crazy.

Commentators from various countries have used their own predictions to explain the ball passionately.

Barcelona's players no longer have any calm on their faces at this time.

Pique was slapping the vegetable skin angrily, Puyol was loudly encouraging his teammates, Xavi, Iniesta and other players were also anxious, urging the Barcelona players to cheer up quickly.

Now for Barcelona.

It takes a miracle to drag the game into extra time.

In the stands.

Barcelona fans were also dumbfounded, holding their heads in their hands, and some of them were looking at the big screen with some luck.

The time of the game is now the eighty-fifth minute of the match.

Time is still moving forward.

There really isn't much time left for Barcelona.

Two goals in a row in the last few minutes are known to the vast majority of Barcelona fans. It's really hard to do that.

It's very, very, very bad!

All that remains of the Camp Nou is the cheers of the Malaga fans.

Pep Guardiola knelt after seeing the goal scored.

He fell to his knees, and his emotions of chagrin and anger were vividly reflected in him.

But by this time, Guardiola didn't have time to think about anything else.

Barcelona need to attack.

So he looked at the bench.

On the bench, the attacking players available to him are Cesc Fabregas and Pedro.

So what's the hesitation?

Let's do it all!

So, while the players in Malaga were still celebrating.

Cesc Fabregas and Pedro are already warming up.

"This season's Barcelona are likely to be empty, oh, it's not right to say that all four are empty, they have won at least one UEFA Super Cup and one Club World Cup, but without heavyweight trophies such as league titles, Champions League titles and even the Copa del Rey titles, Barcelona this season is really not a success."

'Pep Guardiola has decided not to renew his contract with Barcelona at the end of the season, maybe he wants to bring Barcelona a new Champions League title, but now it seems that hope is getting slimmer, and in the league, Barcelona are still in the title race, but they are clearly the underdogs.

When the commentators saw this scene, they sighed with emotion.

Pep Guardiola built a dynasty for Barcelona, but any dynasty will collapse one day.

It's just that no one thought of it

Cosmos Barcelona will be eliminated from the Champions League by Malaga this season.

Barcelona this season is likely to have no heavyweight titles.

This result is not very embarrassing.

However, for Barcelona, their squad is still top-notch.

Even Pep Guardiola left.

Barcelona remain the top giants in La Liga and Europe.

Yelo's passing assist helped Málaga score the decisive goal.

Malaga lead Barcelona 1-0 away from home.

It was a goal that sent Barcelona to the brink of extinction.

"Hooray! Malaga! Banzai! Ye Luo! ”

Stands of the away team at the site, in the downtown area of Malaga.

Such voices resounded in every corner.

Many Malaga fans were in tears, difficult to themselves,

Yes.

Malaga is about to reach the Champions League final!

Who would have thought that Malaga would have such a peak!

It was one of the most glorious moments in the club's history.

Malaga fans chanted from the stands.

In fact.

In the final moments of the game.

The whole Camp Nou, it's their voice.

And in the time to come.

The commentators' attention was not on the game.

They were all talking about Malaga's historic Champions League final, and they were also talking about Yelo's assist.

"At that moment, if Yelo chooses to shoot himself, no one will blame him. I'm sure Yelo could have scored if he had shot himself, but obviously Ruud van Nistelrooy was in a much better position than him and it was more likely to pass the ball to Ruud van Nistelrooy to score. ”

"Actually, I was quite surprised, I didn't expect Yelo to pass the ball, because every goal he has now is an increase in the record."

"Yelo's record of consecutive Golden Goals in the Champions League may be coming to an end in the tenth game, but that's okay because Yelo has created another miracle when he led Malaga to a historic Champions League final!"

"At the critical moment, Ye Luo made the right choice! It's the team's victory that counts! ”

While the narrators were talking.

The time of the game is also passing by the minute.

In fact, Ye Luo is also chasing goals.

But now what the team needs is defense.

Off the pitch, Manuel Pellegrini waved his hand and almost all of the Málaga players retreated to the defensive third.

Malaga is going to be completely defended!

As long as you don't concede two goals in a row in the last few minutes, then Malaga will advance to the Champions League final!

In this case, how could Pellegrini not know what to do yet.

The world is big, it's not as big as reaching the Champions League final.

Everything, you have to be ready to eliminate Barcelona and advance to the final!

When all the players retreated, Ye Luo himself returned to the top of the penalty area to participate in the defense, and returned to the penalty area to defend the high-altitude ball at the critical moment, he actually did not have many opportunities to attack.

However, the recording was interrupted.

There will be opportunities in the future.

The point is, reaching the final and winning the Champions League is the real goal!

"It's the ninety-fourth minute of the game, and the referee is already looking at his watch."

On the commentary seat.

Quite a few of the commentators have already stood up.

In the stands at Camp Nou, many Barcelona fans were numb and sat in their seats depressed, waiting for the destined verdict.

With the referee's three whistles, the numb Barcelona fans finally gave up, and the theoretical luck, all, no longer existed.

In the stands of the visiting team, the Malaga fans were in tears.

On the bench, Málaga's substitutes rushed onto the pitch excitedly and hugged their teammates when they saw them.

Isco, who was injured and had to sit in the stands to watch the game, climbed over the Camp Nou stands and entered the pitch, joining in the celebration with a fist clenched.

"It's a pity, Ye, you only need one goal to score in ten consecutive Champions League games."

Isco said with his good friend in his arms, his face regretful.

"No big deal." Ye Luo laughed and said, "Isn't it just a small record, there will be opportunities in the future." ”

"The point is, we're in the final!"

Isco laughed too.

Both for Yelo and for Isco.

This season.

It means a lot to them – both of them may be on the verge of breaking zero for a major title.
