Messi is close to Suarez.

"Louis. That was a good opportunity just now. If we continue to play like this, we will have a chance. In the first half, we first sought stability and equalized the score. In the second half, we accelerated the pace of the game and took them away at once!"

Suarez nodded: "Leo, I think you need to get closer to the center, otherwise we won't have enough opportunities. They restrict the center very hard, especially Lin. The intensity of his pressing reminds me of Diego Kos."

Ta. I can’t figure it out, why is he running so hard in the frontcourt to press?”

"He fought much harder than Diego Costa." Messi and Suarez also looked incomprehensible.

After a brief conversation, the two separated and returned to their respective positions.

At this time, the game entered the 27th minute of the first half. The two sides had just experienced a back-and-forth shooting battle within a few minutes. The shots of both teams were very close to the goal, but they were all within a hair's breadth.

The ball now belongs to Barcelona.

Barcelona passes the ball short from the backcourt and never takes big shots casually.

If it is Barcelona at its peak, they run actively and smoothly. Every player participates in this offensive system and runs and passes. It is very difficult for the opponent to intercept the passing route. And if Barcelona loses the ball,

Then a counterattack will be launched immediately, and the surrounding players will also participate, and the ball will be regained soon.

But now this Barcelona team is not as good as Guardiola's team, even Enrique's team is already inferior.

It's just that when Barcelona faces some teams that are far inferior to its own, its control is still very strong, which is its ability to abuse others in the league.

But don’t underestimate this ability to abuse people. Many teams are very strong in attacking tough situations and beat strong teams very fiercely. Every strong team is defeated, but there is nothing they can do when encountering such a weak team. Many competitions in the league

Championship teams will die by losing points against weaker teams.

Therefore, Barcelona's ability to abuse others is very important in the league.

But now it’s the Champions League. Although the official name of the Champions League is the UEFA Champions League, it is still essentially a cup competition, especially when it reaches the semi-finals. No team is a weak team. Each has its own skills and strengths.

.

Ajax's current tactics are especially to restrain the current Barcelona, ​​high position pressing, high-risk pressure, all players are recovered when defending, like a fist that is retracted to charge up, and when it is about to counterattack, it punches suddenly and hits the opponent hard.

.

Ajax's defensive counterattack has been effective many times in the Champions League this season.

In the first half, Ajax also showed this ability.

It's just that this Barcelona has Messi after all. Therefore, Ten Hag kept emphasizing before the game that he must cut off the contact between his teammates and Messi.

It is a very dangerous idea to defend Messi alone, because not only will the team waste a defensive player to mark Messi the whole time, but the effect may not be good.

Messi's current running ability is declining. Cutting off his teammates' support seems to be more difficult, but in actual operation it can be achieved.

If only Messi's running ability declines and he starts to walk, it will be a bit difficult to cut off his teammates' support in this way.

But now all Barcelona players are aging, their running ability has declined, and it is the end of the season, and their physical reserves are already insufficient. Therefore, Ten Hag’s tactics of cutting off Messi are completely feasible.

.

From the beginning of the game, Ajax began to implement this cut-off plan, but the plan was just a plan after all. In a specific game, Messi missed it once.

Therefore, Ajax players implemented this tactic more seriously in the following game time.

In the 29th minute, Barcelona had the ball and Roberto on the right took the ball.

When he pushed forward, Tadic immediately followed him.

Very fiercely, he directly slid and shoveled over.

Roberto tried to dodge, but the ball was still in place and was intercepted by Tadic with a sliding tackle.

Tadic stood up, stood still and was about to cross with his left foot.

Pique originally wanted to take over, but when he saw Tadic's movements, he decisively turned around.

At this time, there is still only one point in the penalty area where Lin Ke is the enemy.

Lin Kedi looked at the landing spot and jumped up high. Pique and Lenglet jumped to the left and right. Both sides double-teamed, trying to hit Lin Kedi.

But Lin Kedi hit the ball first and headed towards the goal.

After completing the action of shaking his head to attack the goal, Lin Kedi was flanked by two people. Fortunately, Lin Kedi used his strength in advance to protect his waist. Otherwise, he would have been hit for a long time.

Lin Kedi looked at the ball.

"The beam! Link's enemy hit the beam, what a pity!"

Lin Kedi's header hit the crossbar and the ball bounced off the baseline.

Lin Kedi was focused on the direction of the ball, but then he was hit to the ground by Pique and Lenglet.

Although my waist doesn't hurt, the moment I fell to the ground and the bruise I got from being hit still hurt a little.

Fortunately, it was a serious injury. Lin Kedi rubbed his back and stood up.

But the referee immediately ran over and warned Pique and Lenglet.

"This kind of double teaming involves a foul. This kind of foul in the penalty area. This time I am giving you a warning. I will deal with it next time!"

Pique was experienced. When he saw what the referee said, he left immediately. Lenglet wanted to say a few words, but was pulled away by Pique who came back.

Then, the ball came to the feet of the Barcelona player again.

The ball reached Rakitic's feet after three passes and two passes.

After Rakitic got the ball, he immediately wanted to pass it with the outside of his instep to Messi who was cutting in from the right.

But Van Der Beek immediately rushed up and interfered.

Subsequently, Rakitic turned to protect the ball and handed the ball to Vidal.

After Vidal took the ball, he took two steps forward, looked up, noticed Messi's position, and immediately made a long pass laterally.

In fact, this is not common anymore.

But Vidal is not a player from the Barcelona system after all. If he wanted to pass the ball long, he passed it.

He just wants to pass the ball to Messi.

By this time Messi had already adducted.

Schone immediately rushed in the direction of where the ball landed, and Tagliafico also rushed over from the other side.

The two wanted to double-team, but there was no need to jump.

Inside the house, he directly hit Messi from behind, then protected the ball and went directly to open the area with a big kick.

Ajax doesn't have the same baggage as Barcelona. If they can pass the ball short, they can pass the ball short, and if they can pass the ball long, they can pass the ball long.

Messi was put to the ground and immediately stood up. As soon as he stood up, he saw the ball being kicked directly towards the frontcourt by Schone.

Messi muttered something and started walking slowly.

After the ball was passed to the front court, Lin Kedi was relatively far away from the landing point, but Lin Kedi immediately joined the press. Tadic, Van de Beek and Ziyech also surrounded the ball player.

Busques.

Ajax's four men were like a pair of giant pliers trying to clamp down on Busquets.

Soon, Van de Beek was the first to make a sliding tackle, but Busques's ability to protect the ball was excellent. He threw the ball forward first and avoided Van de Beek's sliding tackle. However, Busquet's speed was indeed very slow, and he encountered another

Ajax was surrounded by many people, and soon, Tadic intercepted the ball.

Tadic has a tough style and is a Serbian player who has been baptized in the Premier League. His playing style is just like this. He knocked down Busques with the ball in one tackle.

Then he immediately turned around, Link started to attack the enemy at almost the same moment, and Tadic sent a through ball.

Lin Kedi is running after the ball.

And Lenglet moved hard to block it.

Lin Kedi saw that the French central defender was about to block him. He changed direction, suddenly accelerated, and threw Lenglet away. Looking at Pique in front of him, Lin Kedi had already thought about what move he would use to pass Pique next.

.

But suddenly, Lin Kedi, who was dribbling the ball at high speed, suddenly felt his shoulder being grabbed. Then a force came and Lin Kedi was pulled to the ground.

Then a harsh whistle sounded.

For a moment, the Camp Nou stadium seemed to have pressed the mute button.

The referee on duty, Kupes, blew his whistle and ran towards the scene of the incident.

Without hesitation, he took out a yellow card from his left pocket.

"cao! Yellow card?"

Lin Kedi subconsciously shouted a national curse.

Before Lin Kedi could stand up, the Ajax players immediately rushed forward.

"Is this a yellow card? This is definitely not a yellow card, this is a red card action!"
