Chapter 392: Barcelona is ready

Chapter 392: Barcelona in a Strict Array

Barcelona, ​​Gamber training base!

In an outdoor football stadium in Gambo Sports City, Barcelona's first team is playing a group match!

The atmosphere of this team game, which should have been relaxed, seemed a bit solemn.

If it is the past, such a game must be full of laughter.

Barcelona's players will laugh at a player being dumped by consecutive passes, and applaud Messi's passing times.

Even when someone gets a single move, the defensive player will pick up the opponent and then shout fouls.

In the training game within the team, it is normal for the players to relax their mentality. Therefore, such a tense atmosphere as it is now indicates that it is very abnormal!

Messi got the ball past Alves, then collided with Pique, and both fell to the ground.

Although Pique did not shovel, this collision already shows that the current Barcelona players are in a high degree of tension!

Guardiola and Vilanova on the sidelines were shocked, but fortunately they saw Messi and Pique pat the dust on their bodies and continue to devote themselves to training.

Vilanova breathed a sigh of relief.

"Is this really no problem? Pep?!" Vilanova looked at his boss Guardiola, "Why do I look so scared!"

Guardiola was actually a little worried about the collision, but when he thought of his opponent two days later, Guardiola immediately made up his mind!

"Attitude! Tito!!" Guardiola did not look back, he continued to watch the fierce confrontation on the training ground.

"We have to show our attitude!! They have already won us three times this season, if we still lose this time, we will lose everything in the league!"

Guardiola looks serious!

The Copa del Rey was eliminated. In the domestic arena, the only thing Barcelona can fight for is the league championship!

Guardiola is naturally impossible to give up this championship, so, in this match with Atletico Madrid, Barcelona must win!

It is no exaggeration to say that this is the most crucial battle in the league!

Vilanova sighed secretly and was able to push Guardiola and Barcelona to this level, and now it has been done by Gao Bo and his Atletico Madrid.

In the past two days, almost everything in the Barcelona team revolved around this game.

From offensive tactics to defensive tactics, from game details to player mentality!

Guardiola prepares for this game almost as if preparing for a Champions League final!

......

That night, the lights in Guardiola's office were still on.

Vilanova finished his last work, and when he was about to go back, he saw the lights of Guardiola's office.

He hesitated and knocked on the door before coming to the office.

He found Gao Bo sitting in front of the TV, still staring at the screen, frowning, and writing and drawing in his notebook from time to time.

Vilanova leaned over and found that the video of the match between Atletico Madrid and Barcelona was playing on the screen, which was the third time the two sides met.

"Have you watched all three games? This is four or five hours?" Vilanova asked in surprise.

"No!" Guardiola turned his head and glanced at him.

Vilanova breathed a sigh of relief, but what Guardiola said next left him stunned.

"I watched all the matches between Atletico Madrid and the strong teams this season!"

Guardiola picked up the notebook, he paused the screen, and then continued to record something in the notebook.

Vilanova shook his head.

The two have worked together for a long time, and Vilanova also knows that Guardiola is a workaholic, but it is the first time that he has done such a detailed research specifically on an opponent!

Guardiola is a philosophical supporter of Barcelona football. Under Guardiola, Barcelona, ​​with Messi, Xavi and Iniesta as the core, played amazing football.

So they got everything.

The Barcelona football philosophy is almost Pep Guardiola's belief. He always thought that as long as Barcelona showed their characteristics, they would be invincible in the world!

And now, the appearance of Atletico Madrid has given Guardiola a sense of crisis!

Atletico Madrid played by Gao Bo is also a kind of football that focuses on offense. They are fast, have a strong impact, fly with two wings and intersect in the middle. They do not pursue the ball, they are more direct and sharp, and they are also fully implemented in defense. The idea of ​​controlling the space, through the overall coordinated movement, from the frontcourt to the backcourt, a full-scale press.

To a certain extent, Gao Bo’s tactics are very flexible. Within the framework of this set of tactics, Gao Bo’s team can play against the impact stream of the frontcourt, and can also recycle the counterattack from both sides. They can even learn from Barcelona. Possession.

They seem to be proficient in everything.

Therefore, when facing such a team, Guardiola found that it is really not easy to find the weaknesses of Atletico Madrid!

Since there are no weaknesses that can be exploited in the opponent, the key to this game is that Barcelona has played it! !

It's just a head-to-head game!

"It's hard to imagine that they can achieve this level of understanding in just half a season..."

Vilanova shook his head and sighed after seeing a continuous pass of Atletico Madrid on the screen.

Barcelona is also very good at continuous passes in the front court, but Vilanova knows that Barcelona does this because their core players are their own youth training products. Since the Barcelona youth training camp, their players have been They are already playing the same football, so La Masia’s students are almost seamlessly connected to the first team, and now this Barcelona team has gone through several seasons to reach the current level.

But why is Atletico Madrid?

"No, they don't have enough understanding!"

Guardiola smiled.

Although Atletico Madrid's passing looks good, but compared to Barcelona's fusion after several seasons, Atletico Madrid is a bit less sophisticated.

"If it's just better than pass control, we definitely do better than them, and it's better than one grade!"

Guardiola said confidently.

"Unfortunately, they won't be compared with us in this aspect...their goal of every pass is to shoot, have you found out? Tito!"

Guardiola turned to look at Vilanova They have scored more than 20 shots in each game! "

Vilanova nodded. Atletico Madrid feels like a sharp knife this season. They seem to be able to create threats all the time.

"Yes, I know this too." Vilanova looked at the thick notebook in Guardiola's hand, which was densely packed with various tactical materials. "Have you found a way to deal with them?" Bi Lanova's eyes lit up.

Guardiola shook his head: "Not yet!"

Then he paused: "But...I can feel it."

Speaking, Guardiola stood up.

"Let's go, accompany me to have a drink!"

Guardiola picked up the jacket on the back of the chair.

"I haven't eaten dinner yet..."
