Chapter 506 He saw Yang Yang!

"Liverpool take a quick free-kick."

"Gerrard's cross to the front post, Crouch's header!"

"Slightly higher!"

"It was Liverpool's most dangerous shot of the first half."

"It came from the free kick opportunity created by Yang Yang, but Crouch did not seize the opportunity."

"Goal kick for Barcelona."

……

With Barcelona's goal kick, Liverpool fell back to their own half.

At this time, the time was No. 308 minutes in the first half.

Quick, jumping into 39 minutes.

Barcelona still controlled the ball, but although Liverpool was one goal behind, the scene was not chaotic at all. The players still looked calm and fighting spirit on the field, especially after the team created a threat.

At this moment, Liverpool is like a shark smelling blood, ready to catch up and bite at any time.

…………

…………

Benitez quickly made another round of adjustments.

He dropped Xavi Alonso to form a double midfielder with Mohamed Sissoko and allowed Gerrard to press forward.

Because he noticed the changes in Barcelona.

Thiago Motta, who is 1.8 meters tall, is even more forward.

In this way, Barcelona's three midfielders are positioned like an inverted triangle, with Harvey dragging at the end.

So Benitez made adjustments to let Xavi Alonso follow him back, but Gerrard pressed out.

The reason is simple, he needs Gerrard to give Yang Yang and Crouch more support when counterattacking, and at the same time suppress Harvey, which will make Barcelona's midfield organization once again contained.

At the same time, Benitez also adjusted the responsibilities of the team's midfield.

Barcelona is obviously also very clear that the core of Liverpool's midfield organization is Xavi Alonso, and the biggest problem with Spain's midfielder is the fear of pressing. Therefore, in the first half of this game, as long as Xavi Alonso has the ball, Barcelona will immediately double him.

This is also the task of Thiago Motta, Deco and Saviola in the game.

Benitez also noticed this, so he made adjustments to let Carragher and Daniel Agger pay attention to Xavi Alonso, try to control the ball in the midfield and backcourt, and bypass Thiago Motta.

…………

…………

The game quickly entered four 10 minutes.

After continuous adjustments, Liverpool is also actively and patiently looking for opportunities.

Everyone knows that even a zero-to-one loss is not a problem, because there is still a second round.

But Yang Yang doesn't think so, he doesn't want to lose again at Camp Nou.

After the team's continuous adjustments, Yang Yang's task has not changed too much. He is still on the left, responsible for the entire left attack, because Arbeloa can't give him support at all.

But this does not mean that he faced Belletti one-on-one, because in many cases, it is difficult for Liverpool to pass the ball to him.

Barcelona also has targeted tactics for this.

Throughout the first half, he didn't have many chances to get the ball. The one just now was the best, but he was directly fouled by Belletti.

Obviously, this is Barcelona's strategy.

Never let Yang Yang take the ball and attack directly!
After Thiago Motta stepped forward, Harvey was more like a single midfielder who was dragging behind, and Yang Yang could get more opportunities on the left.

So, without being reminded by Benitez, he took the initiative to expand his scope of activities.

Liverpool also quickly created a chance.

After Xavi Alonso got the ball, Barcelona players double-teamed him, but the Spaniard was the first to pass back to Carragher.

The Liverpool vice-captain kicked the ball low and sent it directly to the frontcourt.

Crouch retreated, took the ball with his back, stopped the ball and pushed to the left.

Yang Yang took a step ahead of Belletti and stopped the ball with his foot, but he had no chance and could only choose to pass back.

Mohamed Sissoko got the ball close by and Barcelona's players quickly pressed forward.

The Mali midfielder passed to Gerrard, who dropped back, and then to Xavi Alonso.

The whole thing was a one-kick pass, and when Xabi Alonso got the ball again, he was directly facing the attacking direction.

He saw Yang Yang!

Almost at the moment when Harvey Alonso passed the ball, Yang Yang suddenly started, threw away Belletti at the fastest speed, and went straight behind Barcelona's defense.

Harvey Alonso's pass was also very low, the ball was very fast, and it was sent directly to Yang Yang.

Lifting his left foot, Yang Yang stopped the ball steadily.

But at this time, Barcelona's central defender Rafael Marcos also quickly returned to the defense and blocked Yang Yang.

The ball landed on the grass and bounced back.

Yang Yang saw Marcos, and the Mexican central defender obviously wanted to grab the ball, so he made a decisive kick, facing the rebounding ball, directly picked up the top of Rafael Marcos, and landed behind him, while he suddenly started again, passed Marcos' side, and went straight into the penalty area.

Marcos reacted quickly and turned around quickly.

But he is fast, Yang Yang's speed is even faster.

Almost in the blink of an eye, Yang Yang threw off Marcos and chased the ball all the way.

Valdez decisively abandoned the door and attacked, accompanied by a loud roar.

But Yang Yang caught up with the ball at the front of the penalty area.

Marcos is chasing back on the left, Puyol is on the back right, and Valdes is in front.

After Yang Yang caught up with the ball, he didn't have time to think about it at all, what was almost instinctive was a shaking...

……

"Beautiful people pass the ball!"

"Yang Yang picked the ball and passed Rafael Marcos, forming a single shot!"

"Goalkeeper Valdez abandons the goal!"

"Yang Yang..."

"The pendulum is extraordinary!"

"Pretty!"

"Yang Yang scored the empty goal successfully!"

"The ball went in!!!!!!"

"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!"

……

After Yang Yang sent the ball into the empty goal, his speed did not decrease, and he rushed out of the court all the way.

He spread his arms as if he were a glider.

He used to fly at the Bernabéu, and now, he is flying at the Nou Camp!
All Liverpool players were full of surprises, and everyone rushed towards him.

Yang Yang rushed to the corner kick area, slid and knelt, clenched his fists, then kissed his hand rope forcefully, and raised it above his head. This is his iconic gesture of celebrating a goal!
But soon, he was thrown to the ground by the rushing Liverpool players.

They are all so excited!
……

"Excellent cooperation!"

"It can be said that Liverpool's goal is very critical!"

"Now is the game time No. 404 minutes. Yang Yang's goal not only equalized the score for Liverpool, but also greatly boosted the team's morale, and also dealt a blow to Barcelona."

"A truly amazing goal!"

"We can see that Yang Yang has a strong ability to read the situation. When he received a pass from Crouch, he chose to knock back."

"Belletti must have been careless. At this time, Yang Yang suddenly and quickly thrust behind him."

"I have to say that Harvey Alonso's pass was just right. He just hit Yang Yang's step, so Yang Yang stopped the ball with his left foot, and then made another kick without waiting for Marcos to approach."

"The two movements are connected very well, like flowing clouds and flowing water, very exciting!"

"As for the pendulum later, it is already Yang Yang's signature weapon. Valdés was also a little anxious to attack, but there is no way. Facing Yang Yang, any goalkeeper will have pressure."

……

Benitez was also so excited that he jumped up on the sidelines.

This was definitely a surprise, because he was already mentally prepared to fall behind by one goal in the first half, but he did not expect Yang Yang to bring him such a surprise and surprise.

"This kid is so smart!" Benitez praised with a smile.

He has always felt that Yang Yang is not only fast and has solid and comprehensive skills, but also thinks that Yang Yang's off-ball running is very good, and his thinking in playing football is really very smart, which is completely different from what others think.

"Harvey Alonso's kick was also very beautiful." Yesterdam laughed.

Benitez nodded. He could see that there were not many players on the team who could play well with Yang Yang. Harvey Alonso was one of them, as were Gerrard and Dirk. Crouch, on the other hand, seemed to be a bit lacking in cooperation with Yang Yang.

It's not that there is anything wrong with the England center forward, but he is obviously more willing to be the team's attacking player.

There is no rush for this kind of thing.

Benitez believes that as Yang Yang's performance gets better and better, his weight in his team will become more and more important. At that time, it will no longer be a question of whether Crouch is willing, but he has to obey.

At the very least, Yang Yang's scoring efficiency is what Crouch does not have.

Moreover, Yang Yang also sent a lot of good goals to Crouch this season, and the England center should feel Yang Yang's kindness.

Throughout the entire first half, except for the one mistake by Sissoko, Liverpool hardly made any major mistakes on the defensive end, which made Barcelona's offense always unable to find a direction.

This made Benitez feel very satisfied.

Liverpool suppressed Barcelona at the tactical level!

Watching Yang Yang excitedly hugging his teammates and celebrating his goal amidst the boos of [-] Camp Nou fans, Benitez and Yesterdan looked at each other, which was a bit funny.

"The enmity between this kid and Barcelona is getting deeper and deeper." Yesterdan said with a wry smile.

Benitez was born in Madrid and worked in the Real Madrid youth training camp for several years, so he is naturally close to Real Madrid and is very unhappy with Barcelona, ​​so he naturally does not think Yang Yang's actions are disobedient, but appreciates them very much.

"Anyway, it's about killing the opponent. Sooner or later, it's time for revenge. It doesn't matter when it is."

……

Yang Yang also didn't care, the boos all over the sky were a kind of enjoyment to him.

It’s like he said to Gerrard and Harvey Alonso beside him, “Have you heard, the boos of [-] fans, this is the special treatment given by the Nou Camp Stadium, which is not available in other places, just listen and cherish it!”

Harvey Alonso smiled wryly, but Gerrard laughed even louder.
