I'm Beckenbauer

Chapter 156. Chapter 150.

Thanks to the skills attached to the Baresi card [Perfect Overall View] and Rosicky's [Football Mozart], Luca has a clear understanding of the situation on the field.

The name of Barcelona is very scary. Now the starting players still have the same team that swept the football world for 6 championships. However, in the Champions League, Barcelona has been kicked out of tragedy repeatedly. This is definitely the problem of the team.

Putting aside the aura of the opponent, Luca can rationally see the strength of Barcelona.

Although some problems can be seen shortly after the start, combined with the video of Barcelona's recent games given by the previous coaching staff, this team can be said to have very big problems.

In the opening few attacks of Barcelona, ​​they were all small groups of two or three people, or individual abilities to dribble the ball. It is rare to see them interspersed with running positions, which is far worse than Leverkusen in this respect.

It may be because Messi's physical fitness has declined, and there are no opponents in the penalty area, and the three arrows are not considered calls. Griezmann uses his excellent running as a shit stick, but he is still used to it at critical times. Fati, who is injured, does not have this ability, let alone Messi, who is placed in the single arrow position today, he has never been the kind of player who likes to fight against defenders in the penalty area .

In the past, Barcelona could use Messi's personal ability to break the game, but now Messi's athletic ability has declined.

In addition, the midfield ability is far worse than Xavi and Iniesta, and now Barcelona's offensive and defensive conversion speed is quite slow.

The lack of cooperation in the frontcourt can only allow the central midfielder to frequently insert, and the two players De Jong and Pedri are definitely not physical madmen. Busquets has also declined sharply. Supporting Barcelona can be said to be full of loopholes.

Once a team with a strong offense and a weak defense cannot play offensively, their weaknesses will be infinitely magnified.

Barcelona's defense is not very strong, especially Lenglet is like a training compass.After thinking it over, Luca already has a plan, which is to let Barcelona attack. As long as they can defend and seize the opportunity when the opponent's midfielder is out of touch with the defense in the frontcourt, Haverts and the others will definitely be able to create goals with impact.

--------

When the opponent re-kicked off, Luca had already returned to the backcourt.

"Let's play a counterattack, a standard defensive counterattack." Luka discussed with captain Lars Bender.

Bender nodded without any objection: "The coach's arrangements are similar. Anyway, you can decide. It's always easy for you to play football on the court. We all listen to you."

Seeing that the others had no objections, Luka returned to his position.

Barcelona passed the ball to De Jong, and De Jong himself dribbled the ball forward in the middle. After Linke grabbed it, De Jong quickly assigned it to the right. Dembele quickly gave the ball to Messi, and Luca rushed up in an instant. A flying shovel.

However, Messi seems to have seen through his actions. At the critical moment, he pulled the ball back to avoid Luca and then dribbled the ball to the left.

It's not that he doesn't want to pass, there are already guards around Griezmann.

Luca got up very fast and continued to chase Messi. Messi's current speed couldn't get rid of Luca at all. Before he got to the front of the back line, Luca had already caught up again.

"Beckenbauer's speed is really fast. His overall movements are more flexible, and his rising speed is far faster than ordinary players. He must be very suitable for Barcelona." The Catalan commentator talked eloquently, as if Luca Already in the bag of Barcelona, ​​"Pjanic has no advantage over Beckenbauer Jr., his speed is too slow, the coverage area is not enough, he has no ability to dribble and break through, and his talent for through balls is average. , organizational ability is not necessarily better than Beckenbauer Jr., maybe he only has one free kick to be commended."

Messi has tried to get rid of it twice in a row, but Luca just can't be fooled. Compared with those big-name stars, the fledgling Luca is more sensitive.The main thing is the addition of various skills, especially the level 2 [prediction] skill. When Messi makes a move, he has a vague feeling that the next time it is a fake move or something. If he is replaced by the peak Messi, he may not be able to judge it. , but there is no big problem now.

Griezmann was a little surprised that Messi couldn't get rid of Luka, and ran back to catch the ball.

After getting the ball, the Frenchman still wanted to try a personal breakthrough. Unexpectedly, Luca quickly pushed up from the flank and defended against Lars Bender. He barely protected the ball and kicked the ball to Bender for a throw-in.

The more he kicked Luka, the more he felt that his judgment was correct.

Barcelona's frontcourt cooperation can't play at all, maybe it's not the coach's problem, it's mainly Messi.Of course, Messi is still the best player in the world, but his athletic ability has declined and he cannot change positions frequently with his teammates. It is impossible for Barcelona to play and cooperate in the frontcourt all the time.

In this way, as long as Messi is stared at, both Griezmann and Dembele can only fight alone.

Griezmann threw a throw-in, Luca signaled Bender to stare at Griezmann, Link and Pedri, and he himself stuck to Messi. Maybe there was no way to completely prevent the superstar from killing him, but as long as he slowed down The speed with which the ball is picked up and passed, the fleeting chances disappear.

Griezmann repeatedly looked for opportunities near the top corner of the penalty area on the left, but did not dare to give Messi. Seeing De Jong coming up, he chose a long pass to the midfield.

But Leverkusen's press is quite fierce. Link, who was defending Pedri just now, has already gone up to press with his teammates. De Jong, who couldn't turn around, forced a pass forward. Luca suddenly jumped out from Messi and snatched it away. ball.

Messi was startled, he wanted to foul but the opponent had already ran two or three meters away.

And Luca was also quite decisive, choosing to make a direct long pass to Haverts on the right.

Havertz had known for a long time that Luka would choose this way. Haverts, who had a clear advantage in height, competed for the top and gave the ball to the middle. Wallander took the ball and hit it into the penalty area at the first time. Haverts quickly rushed into the penalty area. A low pass before the kick.

Barcelona's defensive players were stunned for a moment. They actually handled it like this. Following the route of the ball passing, they saw Diaby who had sprinted into the penalty area.

Diaby, who ran from the defensive line, quickly rushed into the penalty area to take the ball and kick decisively.

The ball flew into the goal from the near corner.

The noisy Camp Nou stadium seemed to have been pressed the pause button. Barcelona fans insisted that they could not believe their own eyes. In just 7 minutes of the opening, they fell behind Leverkusen at home. Team?
It doesn't matter if you can't beat Bayern, but now you concede the ball first when you meet fourth in the Bundesliga, so what is Barcelona!

Watching each other celebrate at Camp Nou, the Barcelona fans didn't bother to boo them.

If you can't kick yourself well, there is no need to blame others.

Barcelona fans are so proud.

Many people have already fumbled into their pockets, preparing white handkerchiefs first.
