Chapter 221 Guardiola's Transformation

Wenger's idea did not come out of thin air. Based on his experience with Barcelona several times, as long as Barcelona chooses to defend, then Arsenal must still have a chance.

In fact, Barcelona's defense has always been a huge hidden danger hidden under the gorgeous appearance, not to mention that captain Puyol has not played in this game.The biggest mistake Guardiola made was trying to use his own weaknesses to control his opponent's strengths. Although Barcelona has been rampant in Europe in recent years, their defense is actually not that good.The strong offense conceals the clumsy defense. Pressing in high positions is just a means, but when it is really necessary to bayonet the opponent in one's own half, I am afraid that even the "world's number one right back" Alves is not A reassuring Lord.

With the kick-off again, Barcelona has changed its tactics. Thiago and Liang Zhao, two energetic young midfielders, have returned to their own half from time to time.Except for Messi, the whole Barcelona team is defending.

It is true that Arsenal's offense cannot be compared with Barcelona's, but if it comes to whether their offense can really break through Barcelona's defense, this issue may be open to question.Maybe after this game is over, we will be able to get an unexpected answer.

Liang Zhao, who sent an assist, had another mission throughout the game, which was to keep an eye on his compatriot Tang Lintian and not give him a chance.This is not an easy task, because today Tang Lintian has been cornered.

Crudeli yelled in surprise several times, "My God! Tang made another breakthrough, but unfortunately, he was cut off by his compatriots!" Similar words were said by true fans like him.

As for Belen Ventura, this chick always said, "Oh! Don has successfully broken through again, and Liang can't stop him at all!"

He Xu watched Liang Zhao on TV, silently thinking about the difference between his performance at this time and his previous life.Liang Zhao in the previous life was definitely a late bloomer, and at that time he was just a classical attacking midfielder close to Riquelme's style.Can take the ball and pass the ball, but the overall ability of the individual is relatively poor.It's not like it is now, with outstanding talent but also an all-round player with both offense and defense.He Xu fully believes that if the coach now asks Liang Zhao to play as a defender, Liang Zhao can easily complete the task.

Just like now, he seemed to make Tang Lintian look helpless once again.

Wenger on the sidelines silently lamented that his life was really bad. After finally leading the team to the quarter-finals of the Champions League, they encountered Barcelona again.I thought that Tang Lintian, who I worked so hard to cultivate, could become a rare soldier, but I never thought that Liang Zhao would beat his beloved apprentice to such a death... Could it be that I was not destined to make a difference in the Champions League?
After Busquets succeeded in stealing the ball, he tried to counterattack with a quick long pass.Professor Boo's ability to move the ball does not seem to be inferior to his ability to dive.At this time, some people with a discerning eye could see Wenger's skillful formation.

The professor sacrificed Ramsey's ability to run and intercept, and placed Wilshere, who had better predictive ability and positional awareness, in the midfielder position. It was this move that allowed them to end a lot of Barcelona's counterattacks.Wilshere's overall view and ability to predict are extremely strong. In many cases, his judgment on where the ball will fall is even better than some center forwards who rely on grabbing spots for food.

Busquets' pass was intercepted by Wilshere. Tang Lintian and Van Persie were the only two players in Arsenal who had Wenger's permission and did not need to participate in the return defense.Therefore, after stealing the ball, Wilshere immediately found Tang Lintian and passed the ball.

Krudelli was silently happy in his heart. It is really a kind of luck to be able to explain such two rounds of the game.Feeling this warm atmosphere, Krudelli has an urge to rush to the green field.

Wilshere's quick transfer gave Tang Lintian more time to control the ball and think, but Tang Lintian didn't seem to need this right now.In his heart, there is only offense at this time!
After receiving the ball, he turned around directly with his right foot.Although Mascherano had already posted it as soon as he turned around, it didn't have much impact on Tang Lintian. He raised his arm, kept his balance and pushed away Brother Ma, and squeezed the space to move forward. Dribbling breakthrough.

Mascherano was very surprised that such a thin boy had such strength. What did these Chinese players grow up with?Why is it like this!Liang Zhao is, so is the kid in front of him...

Just when Tang Lintian thought he could break through successfully, Mascherano suddenly stretched out his hand and grabbed his jersey.The posture and position of this shot were so secretive that none of the referees saw it.Moreover, Tang Lintian had to slow down.This just gave Pique a chance to catch up!

"Ah, we saw that Tang's feet were slow, and he was surrounded again. Van Persie was already in an offside position when he wanted to pass the ball! A kick back! The ball was poked away by Pique relying on his long legs Already!"

The game entered a fierce stage, with a three-goal disadvantage.To win directly, Arsenal need to score four more goals while limiting Barcelona's offense.No one thought Arsenal would succeed, except the Arsenal players.

Barcelona is no longer obsessed with offense, which gives Arsenal a good chance to counterattack.In fact, Wenger really wanted to ask Guardiola how he could make his team give up possession of the ball!

After Pique steals the ball, he just wanted to pass the ball, but suddenly felt that his waist was pushed by someone, and the strength in his legs was vented at once. He wanted to kick the ball with big feet, but he only drove the ball less than ten meters .

No need to ask, this is naturally Tang Lintian's revenge.Ten years is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge, this is not my theory.I am a small person, so I try my best to get my revenge as soon as possible.Therefore, Tang Lintian decisively and covertly attacked Young Master Pi.

Pique, who was overwhelmed, turned around and glared at Tang Lintian, but forgot that he just passed the ball to Arteta's feet.Taking advantage of Tang Lintian's strange method of attracting two central defenders away, Arteta made a diagonal pass, and the ball went to the feet of Van Persie, who had shifted to the right.

Robin has avoided Adriano's interception, reached out with his left foot, and received the ball.With his ability, it is still very easy to deal with Adriano!The moment he received the ball, he turned his body and started cutting inside along the front of the penalty area with the ball.

"Huh? Why does this running position and movement look familiar? The instep of the left foot flicked! Van Persie shot! Oh! The ball hit the post and flew out of the baseline!"

He Xu shrugged his shoulders. This Van Persie actually stole all of Robben's tricks, which is despicable enough.

Because Robben and Van Persie are both left-footed, it looks decent for Van Persie to occasionally steal the skills of his national team compatriots.Of course, except for the last one which was almost on the head.

Rao's accuracy was bad, and Valdés broke out in a cold sweat.He loudly told Pique to pay attention to filling the seat, but Pique obviously didn't listen. In his opinion, how to get revenge on Tang Lintian seemed to be the top priority.

Guardiola stood up angrily, he was very dissatisfied with the team's sudden downturn.Is it really safe to be three goals ahead?This kind of slack and slack has always made Gua Shuai the most angry.

Valdés still passed the goal kick to Pique as usual.Pique, who was dissatisfied with Tang Lintian, didn't think about how to retaliate against him for a while, so he could only hide this hatred in his heart.He ran forward with the ball.

Both Elena and He Xu can be regarded as supporters of Barcelona, ​​and Chen Bo, who is habitually contradicting the two, naturally supports Arsenal.Although it was Arsenal who dealt with them in the previous game.

In order to support Arsenal, Chen Bo actually paid a lot of price, from being verbally attacked by He Xu and Elena, to ending their extortion and fraud, and occasionally being punished by Elena.Generally speaking, after watching a match between Arsenal and Barcelona, ​​Chen Bo understood the hardships of life.

At the end of the first half, the score was still 1-0. Thanks to Liang Zhao's wonderful assist for Pedro, Barcelona led Arsenal 1-0.With a total score of 4 to 1 lead, it seems that promotion is in sight.

But even so, in the dressing room, Guardiola criticized his players severely. He felt that the team's poor performance after the goal worried him very much. During this period, he also criticized Fabrega by name. Si and Messi.The defense of these two superstars did not seem to be active in the first half, although Messi does enjoy many privileges in the team.But no one will allow him to be inactive on defense and have no bright spots on offense at the same time...

Liang Zhao sat in his seat, gulping down water. For a thin player like him, water is the best stimulant for such a high-intensity game.At least Liang Zhao thinks so...

In contrast to Arsenal's dressing room, Wenger is full of praise for his players.Although their performance in the first half was not really so perfect, at least they have shown Arsenal's soul power and court style!And compared to Barcelona, ​​the performance of Arsenal's players in the first half is indeed worthy of appreciation.

He Xu still asked Chen Bo with a smirk like he did in the last game, "How is it? What do you want to bet today? Or do you still play like last time?"

Chen Bo gave him a big white eye, and said disdainfully: "You can play if you want! Clear the previous account first! What do you think?"

When it came to the issue of old accounts, He Xu seemed to lose all confidence.Can only act as an ordinary fan who studies hard and appreciates the game.
