Chapter 337 Hardcore Threesome

After returning home from Turin to Barcelona, ​​the first thing Su Dong did was to check the video of the match between Valencia and Inter Milan.

He really wanted to know, what was the reason that caused such an astonishing defeat in such a short period of time for his old club?
You know, in this season's La Liga, Valencia conceded eight goals in the first seven rounds of the league. Although he is ranked second, in fact, this report card is not ideal at all, especially the defense that Valencia has always been good at.

As a result, the UEFA Champions League group stage directly lost [-]-[-] to Inter Milan, which was deeply entangled in grievances, and it was still at home.

In the first three rounds of the Champions League group stage, one win and two losses, this is not like the team that will hit the top of the group.

After watching the game video, Su Dong's questions were answered a lot.

When facing Inter Milan, Valencia’s starting lineup made three adjustments compared to last season. After Sudong’s transfer, he became the starting lineup of Divaio. Vicente on the left was injured and missed. Rufete and Angulo were separated on the two wings.

Both central defenders Marchena and Ayala were injured.

It is also obvious that Valencia may be transferred or injured, and the overall strength of the team will be damaged.

But definitely not to this extent.

In the game, Su Dong was surprised to find that Valencia actually did a good job in the first half and successfully defended the goal. Canela and Navarro also played very steadily. Facing the repeated attacks of Adriano and Vieri, they still defended the goal. This is not easy.

But in the second half, somehow, the situation suddenly reversed.

At the beginning of the game, Valencia conceded two goals in a row within 3 minutes, and then Aimar scored a goal for the team, and immediately conceded two goals in a row.

This can't help but remind Su Dong of some media reports that he has seen before. Valencia seems to be suffering from some terrible disease, which will concede the ball in the second half.

Ranieri's ability is unquestionable, and his personality is also very good, but his acting style is slightly conservative, which makes him hesitant to deal with many things. For example, he has focused on several Italian players introduced this season, but failed to handle the relationship between the Italian gang and the Spanish local gang.

This laid the seeds of disaster for Valencia's successive defeats.

……

After turning off the game video, Su Dong couldn't help but fell into deep thought.

He remembered that Rijkaard had voted for Ronaldinho during the pre-season training camp.

Is this really because he wants to praise Ronaldinho?

I'm afraid not necessarily!

With Chairman Laporta and Vice Chairman Rosell facing conflicts, what he, the head coach, can actually do is very limited. There are even many things that he can’t make public. He can only do something within his own power to try to make up for the cracks in the locker room.

He voted for Ronaldinho, and several Brazilian players in the team had the backbone. The Brazilian gang and the local gang reached a certain balance, and then it appeared that Barcelona played the best start in recent years this season.

This may not be a matter of technical tactics, but it can definitely reflect the ability of a head coach.

Ranieri's technical and tactical level is definitely higher than that of Rijkaard, but it may not be necessary to talk about the comprehensive ability of coaching.

…………

…………

On the weekend, they first lost to Sevilla and then to Inter Milan. Valencia, who had lost two games in a row at home, also had a difficult time in the away game against Real Madrid. In the end, they lost [-]-[-] to this rival team.

This also made Ranieri more questioned and pressured.

……

Barcelona will host Osasuna this round.

Although Juventus just beat Juventus in the middle of the week, in this game, Su Dong, Ronaldinho and others still all started, and Giuly, who was injured, also made a comeback in this round.

Ronaldinho, who did not perform well against Juventus, ushered in an explosion at the Nou Camp this time.

After defending Osasuna's goal for more than 30 minutes, it was finally broken by the Brazilian.

After he took the ball on the left side of the front court, he suddenly sent a long straight pass and sent the ball into the penalty area.

Su Dong quickly rushed to the left side of the penalty area, shot directly with his left foot, broke through Osasuna's goal, and opened the scoring for Barcelona.

Five minutes later, Ronaldinho broke into the penalty area with the ball and was fouled by his opponent. The referee gave a penalty without hesitation.

The Brazilian superstar personally took the penalty kick.

After changing sides to fight again in the second half, Iniesta, who came on as a substitute for Giuly, once again showed a wonderful performance.

When he broke through with the ball in the midfield, he took the initiative to find Su Dong to cooperate.

The two had a quick two-and-one hit the wall outside the penalty area. Iniesta got the ball and burst to the right of the goal. After attracting the attention of the defense, he sent a cross pass and transferred the ball to the goal.

Facing this sudden pie that fell from the sky, of course Su Dong would not spit it out. He followed up with a volley and sent the ball into the goal that was almost empty, scoring twice.

Three to zero!
In the final stage of the game, Xavi sent a delicate assist for Iniesta. Iniesta volleyed vigorously from the right side of the penalty area and pierced Osasuna's goal.

Four to zero!
In the end, with Su Dong's brace, Ronaldinho and Iniesta's one pass and one shot, Barcelona beat Osasuna [-]-[-] at home and continued to maintain their lead in the standings.

Although Valencia lost, Sevilla won, which led to Barcelona still leading by seven points.

…………

…………

In the middle of the week, the second round of the Copa del Rey ushered in.

Barcelona fought hard one after another, and this game basically played with a substitute lineup. Players such as Iniesta, Messi and Larsson all got the starting lineup.

The opponent is Gramanet, a team from West C.

Playing away, the field is very bad, and it is raining, which makes the game very difficult.

Barcelona were in control, but missed one after another, especially Larsson, who missed two good chances in the first half, but ultimately failed to break through the home team's iron barrel.

After changing sides to fight again in the second half, Messi received Van Bronckhorst's cross from the left in just 2 minutes of the opening, and opened the scoring for Barcelona with a header.

This was the only goal of the game.

With Messi's goal, Barcelona won a small away game [-]-[-].

He was the shortest in the team, but he scored a header, which allowed Messi to get a roll call from Rijkaard.

…………

…………

On the evening of October [-]th, in the ninth round of La Liga, Barcelona challenged Athletic Bilbao away.

When the game progressed to No. 705 minutes, Su Dong replaced Larson.

At this time, the score on the court was one to zero.

According to international practice, the home team is at the front and the visiting team is at the back.

……

Limited by the manpower of the first team, in order to better prepare for the Champions League in the middle of the week, Rijkaard hid Su Dong and Deco in this game, but unexpectedly, the game did not go smoothly.

In just 13 minutes of the opening, Athletic Bilbao took advantage of a quick counterattack and scored a sneak attack.

Subsequently, no matter how Barcelona attacked, the Basque Lions did not give Barcelona the slightest chance.

After changing sides and fighting again in the second half, Barcelona's offense still did not improve.

In the No. 60 minute, Rijkaard decisively made a substitution adjustment, and the teenager Messi replaced the sluggish Giuly.

After the French winger came back from injury, his form has not been very good. In the last round, he was replaced by Iniesta, and this time he was replaced by Messi, because Iniesta replaced Deco and partnered with Harvey in the midfield.

Messi, who just scored the winning goal in the Copa del Rey, was very active after playing, but the efficiency in front of Barcelona is still not high.

In the last round against Osasuna, Ronaldinho, who won the best player in the game, did not perform well in this round. Su Dong was not there, he was strictly imprisoned by his opponent, and did not perform very well.

Rijkaard couldn't, so he could only replace Larson with Sudong in the No. 705 minute.

……

Only 2 minutes after Su Dong played, Messi got the ball from the right, forced a breakthrough but failed, suddenly kicked the ball back, took two steps back, and sent a cross with his left foot on the right side of the penalty area.

The ball crossed most of the penalty area and fell towards the back of the goal.

Su Dong jumped in suddenly, before the opponent's central defender Murillo, leaped high, and headed the goal from close range.

Messi's pass was just right, Su Dong was also very comfortable, and the ball hit the left side of Athletic Bilbao's goal directly.

"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!"

"No. 801 minutes, Barcelona successfully equalized the score, one to one!"

"This is a very tacit cooperation, from the long-distance connection between Su Dong and Messi."

"In the past, many people said that Su Dong and Iniesta cooperated with each other tacitly, but looking at it now, the cooperation between Su Dong and Messi is also quite tacit this time. Messi knows very well how Su Dong will run, how fast he will go, and where the ball will go, so he is very comfortable."

"We can see that after Su Dong almost jumped up, he went straight to the top."

After scoring the goal, Su Dong also shared the goal with Messi without hesitation, took the Argentine teenager's hand, celebrated the goal in front of the live TV camera, and accepted the congratulations from his teammates.

Barcelona players are no strangers to this either.

Everyone knows that Messi has always been Su Dong's little follower, and Iniesta has also joined Su Dong recently. The three of them are the hardcore trio of the indoor football team.

In fact, playing indoor football is really a very tacit cultivation.

Whether it's Iniesta or Messi, they have a great feeling for Su Dong. From time to time, there will be some ingenious cooperation on the court, and the inspiration comes from indoor football.

When everyone finished celebrating, the three still celebrated on the sidelines. Messi and Iniesta surrounded Su Dong from left to right.

……

"I feel good today, how about one?" Su Dong asked with a smile.

"The one you said yesterday?" Iniesta asked.

"Yes." Su Dong was eager to try.

"No way, we're in a draw now."

"Because of the draw, Athletic Bilbao defended so tightly, we must not have expected us to make a surprise move."

"But, are you sure?" Iniesta was still worried.

"Don't worry, as long as Messi passes the pass, I'm fine."

The two immediately looked at the Argentine boy in unison.

I don't know if it was because of excitement or exercise, Messi's face was red.

Being stared at by the two, Messi was slightly taken aback, and nodded with confidence.

"I will try my best!"

"It's okay, I'm here!" Su Dong was full of confidence.

He's been wanting to try a new pose for a long time!
　I'm sorry, I met some old classmates who haven't seen for many years yesterday. The original plan was to go home at night to update regularly, but when I got home, I fell down, sorry!Feel sorry!

　　The next chapter is still at 12 o'clock, and I will set the time.
