Ace Young Marshal

Chapter 359 Powerless?
The Nou Camp echoed Barcelona's team anthem before the game.

When Situ Yunbing came out of the player tunnel, he heard thousands of people yelling "Barcelona, ​​Barcelona!"

Situ Yunbing looked around the court, as if he had just experienced the sigh of a god to a mortal, and the aftermath still persisted.

Guardiola in a suit and leather shoes stood on the sidelines and looked at Situ Yunbing. The two nodded tacitly. They did not exchange greetings and exchanges before the game, but they were full of fighting spirit!
Standing in the coaching area of ​​the visiting team, Situ Yunbing felt the hustle and bustle in his ears. Perhaps in terms of feelings, the Nou Camp is not much different from other top European stadiums. You can’t be sure that it will be more terrifying than the Westfalenstadion. The momentum is even more shocking.

But just as this is the totem of faith in Catalonia, Barcelona's Camp Nou has a different charm after all.

Fans who love Barcelona will proudly say that their football is the most beautiful on the planet, and their stands are also the most harmonious. In the past few years, the Nou Camp has the most female audience and underage audience in the world. of!

In terms of the club's culture and heritage, Barcelona can outshine Hamburg ten streets, but today the two teams are fighting on the field, so Hamburg may not be unable to fight the defending champion!
When the starting players of the two teams walked into the court with their heads held high and their chests upright under the leadership of the referee team.

The audience cheered enthusiastically, and the atmosphere was bursting!

"Good evening, audience friends! Welcome to a focus match in the third round of the UEFA Champions League group stage!
The defending champion Barcelona sits at home at Camp Nou against visiting Hamburg!

In the previous two rounds, Barcelona had one win and one tie, while Hamburg had two consecutive victories, so Hamburg leads Barcelona by 2 points!
The results of this round and the next round of the confrontation between the two teams will directly determine the qualifying situation of this group!

Barcelona started the 433 formation at home today.

Goalkeeper: Valdes.

Defenders: Alves, Puyol, Mascherano, Abidal.

Midfield: Xavi, Busquets, Iniesta.

Forwards: Messi, Villa, Pedro.

Pique was unable to play due to injury, but it had little impact on Barcelona, ​​and Mascherano is also strong.

Hamburg started 442 away today.

Goalkeeper: Keylor Navas.

Defenders: Westerman, Van Dijk, Boateng, Matuidi.

Midfield: De Bruyne, Demel, Kante, Rakitic.

Forwards: Griezmann, Reus.

Situ Yunbing followed the tactical formation of AC Milan in the last round, but replaced Azpilicueta with Westerman in the starting lineup to strengthen the defense.

Barcelona is undoubtedly the most successful team in European football in the past few years. They won the Champions League in 06, 09 and 11, and they have suppressed Real Madrid for a long time in the league.

Under the leadership of Situ Yunbing, Hamburg has only completed its revival in the past year. As the Bundesliga champions, the impact brought by their return to the Champions League is already impressive. I just don’t know what the duel between this new force and the traditional kings will be today. Let us wait and see what kind of sparks will be produced! "

When the referee blew the whistle to start the game, Barcelona took the lead.

The whole Hamburg army is deployed in its own half, obviously, the ultimate defense!

Barcelona plays football that many people are familiar with. The midfielder relies on Xavi, Iniesta, and Busquets to control the continuous pass.

Griezmann and Royce launched a counterattack behind the middle circle, but they did not repeatedly sprint short distances like mad dogs, which would have no effect. Barcelona's transmission and control technology is definitely the best in the world. Scrapping is hard to steal.

When preparing for this game, Situ Yunbing emphasized space the most to the team!

Suppression of field space, forming a zone defense with a narrower space than usual in key areas!

The defense of the two forwards in the center behind the center circle is more to limit Harvey. Even if it cannot prevent the opponent from skillfully controlling the rhythm, it can still affect his delivery of threatening balls.

Behind the two, Demel and Kanter stay in the middle. Demer is mainly responsible for the barrier function in the middle of the penalty area. Kanter has a relatively wide coverage in the past but is limited today. Due to Messi cutting inside, Iniesta The ability to go forward is too terrifying, so Kanter can't frequently help defend the wing, he needs to adapt to the situation in the middle!

De Bruyne and Rakitic need to help defend the wing in defense, but in offense, because Barcelona's ability almost determines that it is impossible for Hamburg to form a forward effect in the center from the back, so the role of equipped with dual cores is only to give There is an extra layer of protection for the transition between offense and defense, so as to prevent one person from being completely paralyzed after counterattacking after being marked to death.

Hamburg's defensive formation is still quite effective. After the opening, Barcelona's pass and control shaped the offensive and oppressive situation, but when they mainly launched fast breaks forward, they still relied more on Messi on the right.

When Messi controlled the ball from the side, Rakitic's defense was almost useless. Messi could get rid of it with a fake change of direction and then accelerate. Then Messi quickly broke through Matuidi from the outside line, but finally A cross from the ball went to the front of the goal. Navas took the lead and failed to let Villa grab a shot.

The audience cheered for Messi, and Situ Yunbing couldn't help applauding on the sidelines.

To be honest, watching Messi play is very pleasing, but it is a bit painful as an opponent.

The top ball-handling master in the world of football, especially in high-speed dribbling, is almost not affected by inertia!
Typical of these players are Messi, Robben, Ribery, C Ronaldo, including the up-and-coming Hazard, but Gareth Bale is not included, Gareth Bale is relatively behind the sprint The larger the angle of the change of direction, the stronger the visual sense affected by inertia.

Among them, Messi is obviously the player least affected by inertia, which is related to his figure. Like Maradona, the shorter the player, the more flexible he is when he stops and turns quickly. Simply put, The easier it is to start and control the speed.

But Messi's ability to control the ball is almost overwhelming for Newton's coffin!
Barcelona's strong pressure and high efficiency in the frontcourt made it difficult for Hamburg to effectively form a defensive counterattack. If the organization is not done well, it is difficult for the ball to pass to the striker.

Even if it is passed, it will prevent the striker from posing a threat in the first place.

Guardiola looked indifferent on the sidelines. The offensive and defensive pressure exerted by Barcelona after the opening forced Hamburg to make frequent clearances in the midfield. He was looking forward to a goal.

If the lead can be established early, then Barcelona is likely to crush Hamburg!

In the 7th minute of the game, Iniesta was double-teamed by Kanter, Demel and De Bruyne in front of the penalty area. , Iniesta calmly and accurately knocked the ball across the left, and Abidal assisted the ball to slant the ball into the left rib of the penalty area.

Pedro took advantage of the depth of the offense in a quick forward move, and swept the ball across the front of the goal without any muddle.

Villa got rid of Van Dijk and Boateng in the forward move, and Messi also quickly followed up in place at the back point!
Barcelona's penetrating through play makes the opponent's defense hard to defend!
At the critical moment, Navas attacked ahead of time, and Villa forced a shot from a position only one meter away from Navas.

Navas fell to the ground and stretched his legs to expand the defensive area, and the football was blocked from the sideline by his right foot!

"Wow! Navas deflects Barcelona's threatening shot again!

If Villa chooses to miss the ball, then Messi will hit an empty goal!

It's a pity he didn't see it. "

Messi reached out to Villa at the back point to indicate the space in front of him, then smiled, Villa raised his hand and made a gesture of apology.

Guardiola looked a little disappointed, while Situ Yunbing frowned slightly.

If Barcelona's system is strong, it is only one-sided.

He agrees with Gufren's point of view that any tactic that wants to play a strong threat must be supported by top players.

Take Barcelona as an example. Iniesta can at least contain the opponent's two defensive players when he controls the ball in the frontcourt. With such personal strength, if you put him in most tactical systems, his role and threat will not be great. Small, coupled with Messi's breakthrough ability, Villa is also a top center.

Rather than saying that Barcelona's success is derived from TIKI-TAKA, it is better to say that the comprehensive strength of Barcelona's players determines that they are only short of the improvement of their soft power from success.

In the 12th minute of the game, after Barcelona made a quick pass and cut from the left side of the front court, Pedro knocked the ball back diagonally from the side to Xavi who took the initiative to respond.

Harvey pulled the ball on the spot and changed direction to get rid of Griezmann's counter-grab, and then unexpectedly sent the ball to the front right of the penalty area with an oblique kick.

Messi cuts in so fast that Rakitic has no time to defend.

The moment he touched the ball, he changed to a crosscut and wiped off Kanter. The latter was sweating coldly. He thought he had gained a firm foothold in European football this season, but found that he was so vulnerable to the top masters!
Demel didn't dare to rush forward and was ready to make up for interception at any time. Messi didn't give Demel time to think and continued to cross the ball and came to the left side of the penalty area and took a free kick to shoot!
The football crossed an inner arc and flew out of the bottom line above the crossbar.

Navas didn't even make a save!

There was a sigh at the Nou Camp, followed by thunderous applause.

Situ Yunbing looked grim. After nearly 15 minutes of the game, Hamburg didn't even take a shot!

At this time, he made gestures on the sidelines to let the team slow down the offensive rhythm. Even if it is dangerous to pass the ball back to the defender, he must control the ball more and find more feeling!
If you can't stand firm in the game, then Hamburg's counterattack is out of the question.

Besides, there is one thing that Situ Yunbing is very concerned about. Since he took over Hamburg, the team has never encountered an opponent with a pass-and-control style. Barcelona is the pinnacle of pass-and-control tactics. longer!
