The scene when Handanovic jumped over shocked many people.!
No one thought that this old goalkeeper, who had already put on weight, could make such agile moves!
The moment he fell to the ground and tackled the ball, it was so fast that it was unbelievable!
And his judgment is very accurate!
The football that Neymar shot was tricky enough, but in front of Handanovic, his intention was still invisible and was caught by Handanovic!
The moment Handanovic threw the football away, Neymar's expression was one of shock and pain.
He originally planned to wave his arms to celebrate the goal, but he directly covered his face and couldn't bear to look at it anymore!
"Handanovic! Handanovic!! Great save! He saved the team!"
※※※
When he saw Handanovic throwing the football away, Chang Sheng violently waved his fist.
"YE"
There is nothing more proud than this!
When he did this, he specifically turned towards the fourth official.
And he shouted "YES" very loudly.
He was sure that the fourth official heard it because the fourth official glanced in his direction.
Let you blackmail me! Let you blackmail me!
Did you see it?
This is the end!
Fuck you!
Well done, Samir!
On the court, other Lazio players rushed to Handanovic and rushed to hug him. They celebrated him and thanked him.
The save just now was too crucial. If Neymar were allowed to score the penalty kick, Lazio would be in danger.
※※※
"This is a great opportunity for Barcelona to take the lead, they get a penalty! Neymar comes up to take the penalty... He runs! Oh! Handanovic! Beautiful! He saves! He saves Neymar.
Marl's penalty shot was saved!"
"It's incredible! Handanovic, who was not favored by others, saved such a difficult penalty! He saved Lazio!"
"After Ter Stegen was injured, Handanovic's performance once made people doubt whether he could withstand the huge pressure... But now it seems that these worries are unnecessary! Handa
Norwich succeeded Ter Stegen perfectly!"
"Although Handanovic's mistake caused Lazio to concede a goal in the first round of the match between the two sides, in this round, he saved a penalty kick from Neymar... I think this has outweighed the merits and demerits.
…”
The commentators also praised Handanovich without hesitation.
Those Lazio fans in front of the TV who could not go to watch the game experienced a process of great sadness and joy. Now that they are surviving the disaster, they are all extremely excited.
In the tavern, countless people raised their glasses, cheered and sang praises for Handanovich.
※※※
Handanovic's save not only made Lazio cheer, but also dampened the morale of Barcelona's side.
It turned out that Neymar's penalty kick was cheated by diving. If they get this penalty kick, anyone with a conscience will definitely feel guilty.
It would be okay if the penalty kick was scored. It would be okay to struggle for a while. After all, they are in the lead and the advantage is on their side.
But if they don’t get in, they will wonder – is this God’s will?
When this kind of thinking becomes too common, it will affect every player's performance and emotions.
Handanovic put them into the second situation with a save of his own.
After the game started, Barcelona's performance for ten full minutes was completely different from before the penalty kick. Their offense was disorganized, but Lazio's counterattack was particularly sharp.
Almost allowed Lazio to score!
Guardiola realized that this was not going to work and yelled on the sidelines. It took a while for the Barcelona players to calm down again.
Although the mood has stabilized, the attack still hasn't slowed down for a long time.
Until the end of the first half, Barcelona did not score a goal.
The score was 0:0 in the first half.
Lazio, who led with a total score of 21, had already achieved half of their success in the first half.
There is still half a game left. If they can continue to defend like they did in the first half, they will eliminate Barcelona.
During the halftime break, there was suddenly an air of uneasiness in the Camp Nou stands.
Originally, Barcelona fans were very confident in this game.
Everyone thinks that a difference of one goal is nothing at Camp Nou!
Isn't ninety minutes enough time for Barcelona to score a goal?
Who would have thought that forty-five minutes would be missing now.
Barcelona had a great opportunity in the first half, but it was a pity that Neymar's penalty kick was not scored and was saved by Handanovic.
Why is Handanovic, who is about to retire, so perverted?
※※※
In the Lazio locker room, the first thing every Lazio player did when entering the locker room was to hug Handanovic.
This hug has several meanings. On the one hand, it is to congratulate Sandanovic for completely getting over the shadow of the mistake in the last Champions League semi-final.
In addition, I would like to thank him for that crucial save in the first half.
Handanovic's save not only completed his own redemption, but also saved the team. Even Chang Sheng gave Handanovic a big hug after coming in.
"You did great, Samir!"
Handanovich grinned. It was really worth it to receive such praise from the boss.
Chang Sheng did not make any adjustments during the halftime break. Because the tactics were fine, the second half would definitely be a defensive counterattack.
As long as we can withstand Barcelona's offensive and then wait for opportunities to counterattack, that will be fine.
It doesn't matter if we don't score a goal or win this game, but the key is not to concede the ball.
As long as they don't concede goals, Lazio can defeat Barcelona with a total score of 21.

Meanwhile, in the Barcelona dressing room.
Guardiola comforted Neymar who missed a penalty kick.
Neymar is the current core player of the team, and he must be comforted, otherwise his mood swings will have a great impact on the team as a whole.
Guardiola then didn't talk too much about the penalty kick in the first half, but looked ahead to the second half.
He told everyone to continue attacking in the second half, but to make do with the changes.
It would be too difficult to just pass the ball to open up Lazio's defense. Because Lazio is also good at this, they naturally know how to deal with Barcelona.
Therefore, in the passing coordination, it is necessary to increase personal breakthroughs.
In this regard, Neymar naturally shoulders a heavy responsibility.
His breakthroughs are very series, and you have to rely on him to break the deadlock.
This is why Guardiola immediately comforted Neymar during the halftime break and asked him not to care about the missed ball and penalty.
After Neymar missed a penalty kick in the first half, his emotions were affected and fluctuated. As a result, the team's offense was in chaos for those ten minutes.
So during the halftime break, Guardiola actually didn't plan much tactics. He mainly wanted to appease Neymar's emotions, encourage him, increase his confidence, and let him know that he is the strongest.
※※※
At the beginning of the second half of the game, the two sides changed sides and fought again.
It seems that Guardiola's psychological counseling at halftime was indeed quite useful.
Neymar's performance in the second half was much more normal than after he missed the penalty kick in the first half.
Barcelona's offense became more threatening as a result.
Guardiola's emphasis on personal breakthroughs has indeed caused a lot of trouble for Lazio's defense.
This is actually bullying Jose.
Passarella is old, and Campoli is not as capable as Jose at the center back position.
Passarella, so you can take advantage of the opportunity.
Barcelona's forwards in this game are all quick, fast and flexible. Facing the aging Jose.
Passarella and the tall, bulky Campoli were a perfect match.
If there is a chance to shoot directly with one hand, even if there is no chance, it will cause chaos in front of Lazio's goal!
This is Guardiola's tactics.
Guardiola's tactics were successful.
In the 60th minute, Tello broke into the penalty area and was felled to the ground by Pharaoh Onila who was chasing back. This time there was no doubt that it was a penalty kick.
The referee whistled a penalty kick again!
Although there is no doubt that this penalty kick was not a flop, nor was it a black whistle.
But since there was already a penalty kick in the first half, it was easy for people to think wrongly when the referee gave Barcelona a second penalty kick.
You will feel that this must be a deliberate attempt to suppress Lazio.
Otherwise, when mistakes were made in the first half, shouldn't the referee be more cautious in the second half? He would even rather not call a penalty kick that was obviously a foul.
This is what is called finding balance.
During the halftime break, qualified referees will watch the video of the controversial game in the first half to find out the problem and avoid making such mistakes in the second half.
Unexpectedly, today this referee was really impartial and impartial in enforcing the law. Faced with Faraoni's pull, he decisively awarded a penalty kick!
※※※
"Ah! Penalty kick...another penalty kick! Today's game is interesting!"
"Judging from the slow-motion replay, Faraoni indeed pulled down Tello...there is no problem with this penalty kick!"
“After being deceived by Neymar’s diving in the first half, the referee resolutely gave Barcelona another penalty kick. Although the reason this time was impeccable, I still say that this requires courage!
"
"The Lazio fans must be scolding each other. They think that since Neymar's diving in the first half can be awarded a penalty kick, then Faraoni's foul this time cannot be awarded a penalty kick. This is only fair... but to find a balance.
This kind of thing depends on the individual referee. Some referees are willing to find a balance, and some referees may not have such an idea. So with such a referee, Lazio can only admit that it is unlucky..."
Chang Sheng seemed helpless when faced with such a penalty kick. He did not run to the fourth official because Faraoni did commit a foul. However, in one game, Lazio was sentenced to two fouls in the penalty area and Barcelona was given two fouls.
Penalty kick. The referee on duty still made Chang Sheng very unhappy when he did this.
He was unhappy and couldn't vent it out, so in the end he could only spread his hands and roll his eyes.
