Chapter 1309 The correct solution to the deep siege

The FA Cup final between Manchester City and Chelsea is at [-]pm GMT on May [-].

Two hours and 45 minutes later, at ten o'clock in the evening, Barcelona will welcome their city rivals Espanyol at home.

When the first half of the FA Cup final ended, the Barcelona team was on the bus from the hotel to the stadium.

Iniesta suddenly took off his headphones, and then said to Messi next to him: "The first half is over, Rong didn't score."

Messi glanced at him.

"I am also concerned about this matter. Although I am a fan of Rong, I hope you can win, Leo." Iniesta smiled at him.

After hearing Iniesta's words, Xavi, who was sitting in front, also turned around and said to Messi: "Come on for this game, all of us will support you!"

Messi understands Harvey's kindness, that is, the whole team will help him score.

He originally wanted to express like Rongguang that this was a personal competition between himself and Rongguang, and he didn't want to let himself be honored by everyone.

But when the words came to his lips, he still held back his words, because he was a little worried in his heart, worried that he would not be able to defeat Rongguang alone.

"Thank you." The words turned into a smile of thanks.

At the same time, Messi found a reason for himself in his heart.

No matter how great a player is, he also needs the help of his teammates. Football is a collective sport, otherwise there would be no 11 players in each team.So it's not invincible to be like yourself, this is football.

※※※

When Messi arrived at the Nou Camp with the team, they were warmly welcomed by the Barcelona fans who were waiting there.

The 7-0 victory over Rayo Vallecano in the suburbs of Madrid in the last league game made Barcelona fans feel much less resentful about being eliminated from the Champions League.This city derby aroused the enthusiasm of the fans. The past Champions League is over, and Barcelona fans will not pay attention to it no matter how exciting it is.

Now their minds are on the same city derby.

Barcelona fans regard every matchup with the Spaniard as an excellent opportunity to beat the central government of Madrid and the royal centralization, football is full of political meaning here.

Amidst the enthusiastic cheers of the fans, Messi got out of the car.

When he got out of the car, there was only shouts of "Messi! Messi". The Barcelona fans were cheering on Messi in this way, hoping that he could beat Rongguang in the competition with Rongguang.

Messi waved to the fans, then lowered his head and followed his teammates into the aisle and towards the locker room.

And just as he walked into the tunnel, at Wembley Stadium in London, England, the whistle for the second half was blown.

※※※

Before the start of the second half, when Rong Guang walked out of the player tunnel, the close-up shots of the TV broadcast closely followed him. John Mortensen said: "Rong performed normally in the first half. He had three shots himself. At the same time, he actively passed the football to his teammates in the attack. Sometimes he even pulled out in order to create offensive opportunities for his teammates. He was getting farther and farther from the goal. He sacrificed himself to achieve others. It seems that he did not deliberately chase goals. As he said before the game, what he cared more about was Whether the team can win the FA Cup, not whether he can get the glory of the player with the most goals in a single season... But what I want to say is, don't get it wrong, Rong. If you can beat Messi to get the glory of the player with the most goals in a single season, then the Manchester City team will definitely...can win the championship! Not only the FA Cup, but also the Champions League! "

Alan Hansen laughed beside him: "You are affectionate here, but Rong can't see it, and he can't hear what you said."

But maybe Rongguang and John Mortensen thought of going together. After the second half started, Rongguang was indeed more active in shooting.

Just three minutes into the game, he had a threatening shot from the spot, forcing Chelsea goalkeeper Petr Cech to make a world-class save and shoot the football out of the baseline.

"Rong!!" John Mortensen was very excited, "That's right! That's it! That's it! Let's shoot!"

After finishing speaking, he also glanced proudly at Alan Hansen next to him.

Alan Hansen grinned.

In his heart, he also hoped to see Rong Guang be a little more alone...

He hopes that Rong Guang and Messi can break the scoring record in a single season to a height that is difficult for future generations to reach in this competition. He wants to be a witness of history.

Years from now, it will be unsurpassed that this astonishing season and goal tally will be talked about repeatedly, and he will be remembered as a witness of history and legend.

He likes this feeling.

Because it's really cool...

※※※

Rongguang's shot in the opening 3 minutes made Chelsea feel nervous.

Not only the Chelsea fans in the stands, but even the Chelsea players on the pitch were frightened into a cold sweat.

They must immediately enter the game state and compete with Rongguang, but there is no time for them to slow down, no matter how slow the team is, they have to run into the game state.

Chelsea is like that.

They began to shrink their defense, intending to overcome Manchester City's continuous offensive during this period.

Chelsea's players are full of confidence in this.Now that they can hold their own goal in the first half, they can continue to do so in the second half.

※※※

In the 4th minute after Rongguang's shot, Rongguang received a pass from his teammate at the front of Chelsea's penalty area.

Because of Chelsea's defensive strategy, in this area, other Manchester City players basically have no way to pass the football to Rongguang in advance. Although that can allow Rongguang to take advantage of his speed, it also means that the football will be passed directly to the feet of Chelsea's defensive players.

In the first half, Manchester City had this kind of pass several times. They wanted to pass it to Rongguang, but it was sent directly to Chelsea players.

So now when Manchester City players look for Rongguang again, they will send football to Rongguang's feet.

Although Rong Guang couldn't run up and get rid of the defenders, at least the ball was still controlled by Manchester City.

After Rong Guang received the ball, in front of him were three Chelsea players, central defender John Terry, midfielder Mikel and Ramirez.

There was Lampard on one flank and Mata on the other.

The five Chelsea players formed a circle around Rong Guang, enclosing him in the middle.

With such a posture, if Rong Guang was a little bit bigger when he stopped the ball just now, it is very likely that Chelsea players will rush up and snatch the football.

Fortunately, Rongguang stopped the ball very steadily just now, and stepped on the football directly. Even if the Chelsea players wanted to come up to grab it, they had to give up this idea.

There can be no accidents in any part of this encirclement. If someone rushes up to grab it, it will give Rongguang a chance to break through, and the person who grabs it will become a gap for Rongguang to break through, and the entire encirclement will collapse instantly.

So this encirclement does not necessarily need to stop the ball from Rongguang's feet, as long as it can make it difficult for Rongguang to shoot the football, it will be considered a success.

Rong Guang is no stranger to the siege of Chelsea, nor is it surprising.

In the first half, he fell into this encirclement many times.

The glory of being in the encirclement at that time finally passed the football out-Chelsea arranged five people around them, and the defensive forces in other places must be less after all, right?So he gave the football to his teammates in a better position than himself.

However, Chelsea's players shifted their defensive positions very quickly. They ran fast at the front of their penalty area and sprinted back and forth to ensure the integrity and stability of the defense.

It has to be said that Di Matteo's targeted defensive tactics are very effective, and Chelsea's players are also desperate to beat Manchester City and win the championship.

The three armies use their lives, and the generals are united. Is there anything they can't do?

The Chelsea fans in the stands are full of confidence in the team, looking forward to defeating Manchester City in the final and winning the FA Cup.

※※※

Before, every time Rong Guang took the ball in the encirclement, he would pass the football out at the end.

But this time, he wasn't going to pass the ball.

Although he is surrounded by heavy siege, he seems to have no chance to shoot at all, but Rong Guang knows that the more impossible the opportunity, the greater the reward.

Just because the Chelsea defenders think that it is impossible for them to shoot in their encirclement, once he shoots, they will not be able to react at all!

It's just... how to solve the shooting problem?

Everyone in Chelsea's encirclement is very close to Rongguang, not too close, but if Rongguang wants to shoot with his foot, I'm afraid that when he kicks the football, the opponent's legs and body will be blocked.

Moreover, the general shooting distance must have a run-up distance, and at the same time, the supporting foot and the football must form a certain angle. At least the body cannot be directly above the football, which is not easy to exert force.

But now... the football was trampled by Rong Guang, and his center of gravity was directly above the football, which was the worst situation for him to shoot with force.

Rong Guang's brain was spinning rapidly.

From receiving the ball to now, the starting time has only passed more than a second, but Rong Guang's mind has already turned countless times. His brain has made a decision and issued instructions to his body.

I saw Rong Guang stepping on the football with his right foot and swung it backwards. At the same time, his body leaned back.

The swinging part of the right leg is actually only the calf, so the range of swinging the leg is not very large, and the speed is also very fast. Immediately afterwards, Rong Guang's right foot moved forward again.
Bang!
He hit the football with the toe of his right foot!
The leg swing and shot are almost instantaneous.

When Mikel and John Terry, who stood in front of Rongguang, realized that Rongguang was shooting, the football had already flown in front of them and slipped through the gap between them!

With a whoosh, in the blink of an eye, they flew behind them!

"ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG --!!!"

John Mortensen also called out after the football flew towards the goal.

Amidst his elongated roar, the football was erratic in the air flying towards the goal, which brought great difficulty to Cech's save. In his eyes, the football floated irregularly!
He finally made a save, but the ball deviated from the path of his save...

Then it flew under his arm and hit the net behind him!
