"Barcelona launched an attack on the left."
"Ronaldinho dribbled the ball inwards, and Finnan entangled him with no chance."
"The ball passed back to the left and was handed over to Zambrotta."
"Zambrotta takes the ball and crosses!"
"Later!"
"Deco!"
"Goal !!!!"
"Goalllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll !!!!!!"
"In the fourteenth minute, just fourteen minutes into the opening, Deco scored a beautiful header just eight meters in front of the door!"
...
After Deco scored the goal, the whole person rushed out of the court with excitement.
The entire Camp Nou, 95,000 fans, shouted in unison, shouting Deco's name.
That scene is really exciting!
Barcelona's players also rushed towards Deco, including Puyol, who was rumored to be incompatible with Brazilian players, and also came forward to celebrate Deco's goal.
Head coach Rijkaard was also excitedly dancing on the sidelines.
He is also very clear that this goal has undoubtedly played a role in stabilizing the military for Barcelona!
...
"One to zero!"
"Barcelona made a very good start."
"This is an opportunity created on the left. Ronaldinho drew the ball to attract Finnan's attention, and then suddenly returned to the left. Zambrotta followed to pass and assisted Deco header. ! "
"This goal reflects Barcelona's consistent tactical thinking."
"In fact, from these ten minutes after the opening, Barcelona's ball control and overall advantage are relatively obvious."
"Instead, Liverpool, mainly defensive counterattacks, but the Reds did not play conservatively. Instead of shrinking and defending the frontier of their own restricted area as previously rumored, they created pressure through active and aggressive pressure. . "
"But as a result, the probability of the team making mistakes will inevitably increase."
"Let's take another look at this slow motion replay."
"When Zambrotta crossed, Muhammad Sissoko obviously did not follow Deco in time, which led to Deco's subsequent header and almost no one to mark the goal."
"This is definitely a big mistake, because before the game started, we said that Liverpool's header advantage is very obvious. If Sissoko followed Deco just now, I believe Deco is very difficult to have a header attack. Opportunity. "
"But in any case, the mistakes have been made, Liverpool have to be careful."
…………
…………
Benitez patted his forehead hard.
His hairline has receded high, bare, and a little oily.
The whole person shook his head constantly and walked back.
What he worried about before the game still happened.
Muhammad Sisoko was absent from the game for too long, which caused him to be unable to keep up with the rhythm after the opening. He was just thrown away by Deco just now. Obviously, he would not smell dangerous breath for a while.
Long absences will numb the player's senses and become less sensitive.
But he also did not regret his choice, because Mascherano also lacked the game for a long time, and the Argentine is less familiar with Liverpool's tactics, so he will still choose Muhammad Sissoko.
He understands the Mali midfielder and believes that as the game progresses, he will gradually adapt.
Just before going to the coach seat, Benitez turned around and quickly came to the side of the court, shouting at the court.
"Dick, follow him, keep up, he will stare at me when he comes up!"
This goal is not only the responsibility of Muhammad Sissoko, Kuyt did not have the first time to follow Zabrota, giving him the opportunity to easily cross, is also a big problem.
"Muhammad, it's okay, focus, focus on the game!"
"Steven, Harvey, you should put more pressure on your opponent and suppress the midfield, understand?"
"Daniel, you need to follow up and let Jamie go out a little bit more."
"Let them pass the halftime, pay attention to it, they are all tight, and you should pay attention to it!"
Benitez shouted into the court on the sidelines after a few inexplicable words.
Everyone knew that he was on the spot, but no one but Liverpool knew what he was talking about.
…………
…………
After the team first conceded a goal, Yang Yang gritted his teeth a little bit depressed, and he sighed heavily.
He forced himself to calm down and continue to concentrate on the game.
Then he heard instructions from Benitez on the sidelines.
Benitez is reminding Kuyt to follow Zambrotta closely, allowing Gerrard and Xavi Alonso to put more pressure on Xavi and Tiago Mota to suppress Barcelona's midfield, Let Daniel Agger keep an eye on Saviola, and move Carragher's position to the right.
At the same time, he also kept the team compact, allowing Barcelona to pass the half.
This is the way Barcelona likes to control the ball. They like to play halftime.
And the last sentence was supposed to be Crouch.
Benitez means that Crouch should stop forcing Puyol, because in the tactics developed before Liverpool, the coaching staff means that it is best to let Barcelona's ball pass to Puyol .
Why?
Because Puyol is a right-footer, but he plays the left centre-back, which makes him uncomfortable, and the risk of passing the ball is greater, so Crouch wants to focus on another centre-back, a Mexican player. Rafael Marcos.
...
In fact, after the opening, Liverpool played well.
Gerrard sent a direct pass, Yang Yang made a cross from the left, but Crouch did not keep up and missed a chance.
Ronaldinho caught the ball on the left several times and was caught between Finnan, Gerrard and Carragher.
In the twelfth minute, he once fell in the penalty area and tried to get a penalty, but the referee didn't pay attention.
Avelloa has a full-time mark on Messi. The Argentine players did not perform very well after the opening. Barcelona's offense is mainly concentrated on the left side, and the right side is basically misfired.
This is not surprising. Yang Yang is holding Belletti in the frontcourt. Messi is restricted by Aveloja. Barcelona's right-side offensive channel cannot be opened, and he can only take the left.
...
Ronaldinho is indeed too strong!
Although many people said this season that he failed to maintain the peak state of the previous season, this Brazilian is still very magical, almost as long as the ball reaches his feet, anyone, even three players at the same time sandwich him , He was able to protect the ball and then pass.
He can easily pass by, as if any defensive player is in front of him.
The goal just now seemed like a Zambrotta cross, but before that, Ronaldinho's goal made Zambrotta throw away Kuyt, both receiving and passing get on.
This is the world's top superstar!
Yang Yang has to admit that he is still too far away from Ronaldinho regardless of his personal ability or his wisdom in playing football.
But he wants to win this game!
This desire to win has become more urgent with Deco's header!
…………
…………
With Benitez's successive adjustments, Liverpool held their ground.
Daniel Agger took on more of the duties of keeping an eye on Saviola, and Carragher could start freeing up to defend Fennan.
As a result, Liverpool's defense in the entire right half is stable.
Limiting Barcelona's left, Liverpool's defensive mission is more than half completed, and with Aveloya restricting Messi on the right, Barcelona's two wings can no longer run freely.
After the back line stabilized, Benitez immediately adjusted again, the team's entire back line slowly pushed forward.
This is also the tactics that Liverpool have practiced in the past few days, because Barcelona is not good at playing behind, especially when Eto'o is absent, they are more used to passing, or relying on the player's personal ability, rather than straight behind.
As a result, Liverpool dared to press the defense.
Barcelona's back line was over half-time, and Liverpool's back line tried to get out of the penalty area, which caused the formation of both sides to be flattened, while Barcelona showed a huge space behind it.
This is what Benitez mentioned during the pre-match focus on the offensive exercise, and Liverpool countered the area of the key offensive.
Crouch and Kuyt are two points, and Yang Yang is a sharp knife!
Theoretically speaking, it is easy, but it is difficult to play on the court.
Barcelona's ability to pass and control the ball is outstanding, the player's personal ability is outstanding, and occupy the profit of the Devil at home, which itself leaves few opportunities for Liverpool to fight back, especially in the first half.
In the few opportunities, it is not easy to quickly threaten and cooperate.
Liverpool have targeted tactics, and Barcelona also have targeted tactics.
The highs were not robbed, and they tried to control the second drop.
The Red Army counterattacked several times and hit the front line. Although they all grabbed the first landing point, the second landing point was never passed.
Belletti followed Yang Yang throughout.
Obviously, Rijkaard's strategy is exactly the same as Benitez's strategy against Messi.
He would rather sacrifice Belletti's attack on the right and freeze Yang Yang.
Of course, none of this was beyond Benitez's expectations.
As early as before the game, he has repeatedly told the players that the first half will definitely be Barcelona.
On the one hand, they are still physically active, and they are fighting at home. The attack firepower must be very fierce.
In the face of Barcelona in the first half, if Liverpool can stabilize the defense, then it is considered a success. The counterattack can only be based on luck. The team really wants to force it in the second half.
...
The game also proceeded as Benitez expected before the game.
The only mistake was Mohamed Sissoko's goal in the fourteenth minute.
After that, Liverpool stabilized the defense and Barcelona launched several offensive but failed to break Liverpool's goal.
Although Barcelona was given four or five shots, it was either long-range or barely kicked. There was no real threatening shot, but Liverpool also paid two yellow cards.
Once Daniel Agger pushed Saviola behind, and Kuit knocked down Zambrotta in the frontcourt.
In the 38th minute of the game, Yang Yang got a chance on the left. When he was about to attack the ball, Belletti made a decisive foul and was shown a yellow card by the referee.
