Chapter 391 Manchester City is mainly against visiting guests!
On the field, Manchester City, wearing an orange away jersey, attacked from right to left.
When the whistle sounded, De Bruyne directly kicked the ball back to the top of his own arc.
Stones stopped the ball and quickly adjusted, and then directly passed the high ball to the right wing of the circle. Manchester City's entire formation pressed forward.
For Manchester City this season, this way of launching an attack will only appear when they are robbed in the midfield and cannot play the ball smoothly.
In most games, Manchester City prefers to let the ball go on the ground.
But today we were playing against Barcelona, and everyone was playing small and half-measured. The eldest brother did not talk about the second brother, so Manchester City was not at a disadvantage in the high ball competition.
Soon, the ball landed on the wing and bounced out of the baseline.
After Alba got the ball, he saw that there were six Manchester City players in the nearby rib area, and he threw the ball directly back to the backcourt.
Manchester City's formation also moved with the ball moving laterally to Barcelona's right, quickly pressing forward to the front of Barcelona's penalty area, putting pressure on Umtiti and Peake in the penalty area.
Through the opening two minutes, Guardiola's tactical intention is very obvious, which is to turn the tables, use high pressure to suppress Barcelona, restrict Barcelona's backcourt play, and cut off Barcelona's offense from the source.
Guardiola's tactics are simple and clear.
That is, I don’t care how good your Barcelona MSN combination is, I will use this layer of defense in the midfield and frontcourt to separate the connection between your midfield, backcourt and forward.
As long as the trio of Messi, Neymar and Suarez cannot get the ball frequently, it will be useless no matter how good you are.
On Barcelona's side, faced with Manchester City's anti-visit style of play, the passing in the backcourt seemed a little flustered.
This panic is reflected in goalkeeper Ter Stegen.
In the 3rd minute of the game, Umtiti crossed from the right side of the penalty area to Ter Stegen on the right side of the small penalty area.
Before Ter Stegen could touch the ball, De Bruyne rushed in front of him.
Ter Stegen was obviously panicked, quickly turned to the right, and rubbed the ball laterally with his right foot.
Due to too much haste, the ball speed was not very fast. Seeing that De Bruyne was about to catch up with the ball, countless Barcelona fans almost had a heart attack.
Fortunately, Pique reacted quickly in the upper left corner of the penalty area. He quickly took two steps to meet the ball, turned around and kicked the ball to Mascherano on the right side of Barcelona.
However, before the ball reached Mascherano's feet, Nolito rushed forward.
In the blink of an eye, Ma Mao was blocked by De Bruyne and Nolito on the right side of the penalty area, and was forced to kick forward and make a long pass.
"Looking at the current position of the Manchester City players, De Bruyne is indeed playing the center position today."
"Well, Guardiola's formation today still favors 4141, with Fernandinho playing as a defensive midfielder and Kolarov moving in as a support player."
"Chu Zheng's position today is very interesting. He appears on the wing and in the middle!"
"Gündogan's position also changed following Chu Zheng."
"Not only Chu Zheng and Gundogan, but other players' positions are also very flexible. For example, Zabaleta was in the midfield for one moment, and Manchester City played three defenders, and then withdrew again. He had no idea about Guardiola's calabash.
What kind of medicine is sold there?"
"When Guardiola played Chu Zheng before the game, he said that a talented player like Chu Zheng does not need to limit his position, and giving him freedom is the best tactic."
"Haha, indeed, when watching Guardiola's team play, you don't want to see specific players in a specific area of the field."
"If the situation permits, he can even make the goalkeeper appear at the center position!" Zhang Lu said with a wink and a smile.
Hearing what Zhang Lu said was interesting, Zhan Jun also laughed and said: "Barcelona is somewhat different from the media's speculation before the game. Enrique does not play a 3-center-back system, but a 4-back system. Mascherano
Today I am the right back for Barcelona!"
As soon as Zhan Jun finished speaking, there was another danger in front of Barcelona's goal.
At 4 minutes and 39 seconds of the game, Manchester City once again grabbed the ball from the right side of the frontcourt and Barcelona was unable to move forward.
Abala quickly turned back before Sterling could get close and pushed the ball back to Umtiti in the upper right corner of the penalty area.
Gundogan quickly pressed forward, forcing Umtiti to pass the ball back.
In front of the bottom line on the right side of the penalty area, Ter Stegen, who moved laterally, was also flustered by De Bruyne who started from the center and rushed to press. He kept passing the ball forward.
In the right rib area at the top of the arc, Busquets, a blind filter for the ball, quickly stood up and prepared to catch the ball.
Seeing the ball coming, Chu Zheng, who was not far behind Busquets, directly stepped forward to grab the ball.
Busquets is known among the fan base as the ball-blind filter.
This guy's physical confrontation ability is not strong, but he can make up for it with his super high intelligence and rich game experience.
With her back to Chu Zheng, Busquets had already made moves to protect the ball in advance, obviously knowing that Chu Zheng would grab it from behind her.
So at the moment of receiving the ball, Busquets made a false move to turn to the left.
After a false shot, Busquets rubbed the ball with the instep of his right outside foot the moment it came to his feet, then quickly turned to the right in an attempt to get rid of Chu Zheng.
However, when Busquets turned to his right, he saw a leg across his feet.
The next second, Busquets was lying on the grass before he could react.
"Tackle and save the ball!!!!!!!!!"
“Very clean!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
Seeing Chu Zheng's sliding tackle leaving the ball at their feet, Zhan Jun and Zhang Lu immediately exclaimed!
It is self-evident what the interception of the ball at this position means.
When countless Barcelona fans saw this scene in the stands of Camp Nou, they were so frightened that they held their breath for a moment and their hearts beat wildly.
On the field, Chu Zheng put his left hand on the soft lawn and stood up quickly.
Seeing that De Bruyne was in an offside position on the right side of the small penalty area, Chu Zheng swung his legs on the spot, and before Busquets, who got up almost at the same time as him, could wrap around him, he directly lobbed the ball.
"Shoot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Zhan Jun exclaimed with eyes wide open!
In front of the goal, Ter Stegen, who had just returned to the right post, sprinted along the goal line and jumped out to the upper left corner of the goal.
But he couldn't reach the ball!
When he fell from the air, he saw Chu Zheng's hanging goal flying off the crossbar from the upper corner of the goal. Ter Stegen's heart suddenly filled with joy of surviving the disaster.
Otherwise, if the goal was scored, he would have a big responsibility.
"fool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Seeing Chu Zheng's hanging door fly out, the 100,000 fans at Camp Nou suddenly let out a rapid exclamation!
The terrifying sound was like the heat wave of a bomb explosion, instantly rising into the sky from above Camp Nou.
"Oh!" Zhang Lu also exclaimed.
"Chu Zheng was really decisive in this goal. He didn't hesitate at all. He stood up and turned around to hang him!" Zhan Jun adjusted his glasses and sounded extremely regretful.
"This ball, if Chu Zheng doesn't kick it immediately, he won't have a chance!"
"Busquets is on Chu Zheng's left back. If Chu Zheng thinks about it more, he will be entangled by Busquets!"
"Yes!" Zhan Jun nodded, "De Bruyne, the only contact point in Barcelona's penalty area, was offside just now."
On the sidelines, Guardiola also rubbed the stewed egg on his head with regret.
Enrique, who had been sitting on the coaching bench, was also frightened. He quickly walked to the coaching area and gestured and shouted to the Barcelona players on the field.
