Chapter 500 Messi fights back
Seeing Puyol's old and helpless face, Rudy felt inexplicably sad.

Puyol, who fought against the Galacticos back then, who led Spain to the top, and who has won several Champions League trophies, still cannot escape time.

He is old and can no longer keep up with his opponents.

In just a few minutes, Caesar helped the team go from being behind to overtaking, kicking the Nou Camp's voice away kick after kick.

We may lose.

Is Caesar really better than Messi?
It's no joke that Real Madrid was defeated by him alone. Caesar really has this strength.

The whispering voices of the fans wafted over the stadium. These voices "buzzed" like flies and lingered over the Nou Camp for a long time.

Vilanova had to stand up from his chair, this is Barcelona's home court, how could Caesar be allowed to be so presumptuous.

"Attack! Give me more attack!!" Vilanova waved his hand and told the players to press on.

Apparently the assistant coach was a little worried, he said: "In this way, our defense, "

"Football is a game of scoring goals, let us use goals to suppress our opponents!" Vilanova was quite determined and stubborn.

He is a coach who attaches great importance to offense. Compared with 1:0 tactics, he prefers to see a 5:4 soul-stirring game.

Since Atletico Madrid wants to play against each other, Vilanova is not afraid of him.

"The game is now at the 30th minute! The score is still 2:1! But Barcelona has obviously stepped up their offensive and surrounded Atletico Madrid!"

Atletico Madrid is not afraid of Barcelona besieging them, because without a high center forward, Barcelona can only keep back and forth, or threaten Atletico Madrid's goal with long shots.

It's a pity that Courtois is tall and has long arms, so he is not afraid of long shots at all.Moreover, Vidal and Gabi stick to the middle, and with Caesar assisting in defense, they will never give Barcelona a chance to attack the goal head-on.

So for a while, Barcelona kept kicking and passing the ball outside the penalty area, unable to find a way to Atletico Madrid's goal.

This situation is generally referred to as "deadlock".

When this kind of thing happens, the role of the team becomes smaller, and the individual ability is magnified.

Only a talented player can break this stalemate and tear apart the opponent's defense.

There is such a person in the Barcelona team.

"Messi retreats to catch the ball! Caesar is defending him!" Rudy yelled excitedly, but the two just passed each other and did not form a conflict.

Messi runs forward while Caesar closes in on Busquets.

Busquets looked very active in this game, and it can even be said that he was a bit sticky to the ball.

Usually, he uses his broad vision and extremely delicate foot skills to help the team control the game, but today, his desire to attack with the ball is quite strong.

Caesar saw him glance in Harvey's direction, thinking that this guy was going to cross Harvey.As a result, Busquets just feinted, flicked his ankle, and moved the ball forward, bypassing Caesar.

The opponent is intensively defending, and there is one trick that can slightly interfere with the opponent's line, that is, the midfielder or even the defender inserts the attack.

The more people there are, the more points need to be defended, and naturally someone will be vacant.

Busquets' insertion was beyond the expectations of the Atletico Madrid players. Caesar went to pounce on Harvey's point, but did not follow up in time.

"Stop him!" Gabi urged Vidal to make up for him, and he held Messi by himself.

This is a somewhat hasty judgment, because Busquets actually does not have the ability to shoot long distances, let alone break through. Even if he ran over, he would at most just stroll around in front of the Atletico Madrid penalty area and then go back.

But Vidal's move made Busquets see a gap.Regardless of Gabi's entanglement with Messi, he passed the ball.

"Busquets gave it to Messi! Gabi blocked it! Messi didn't stop the ball! The ball shouldn't be given to Messi, Pedro's position is clearly vacant."

Rudy's statement is also correct, but Busquets is full of trust in Messi.In such a deadlocked moment, coupled with the Ballon d'Or competition, it must be Messi who breaks the deadlock.

Messi controlled the ball and turned to face the goal.

Gabby was a little nervous.

He bent down and stared at Messi's feet.

"Surround him!!" Vidal forced Busquets to pass the ball, and then turned back to chase Messi.

As I said before, an important factor in encirclement is that you can catch up with the person in front.

Unfortunately, Vidal also failed to catch up with Messi.

"Messi cuts the ball in! Gabi moves laterally!"

Messi's feet are very fast, and almost every step is a fake move.So Gabi has been thinking about when Messi will play, but in the end, he waited and waited, waiting for his position.

"Messi waded through Gabi! Godin came out to defend!"

Messi repeated his tricks, waving the ball directly towards the goal. Godin rushed to grab the ball like a gamble, but he didn't break Messi's ball, and he was wiped out.

"Messi faces the goal directly! Hit the goal!"

Courtois was too late to react and the ball just slipped past his feet.

Messi equalized the score!
The cheers of the fans sounded again in the sky above the Nou Camp, but the cheers at this time were even louder.

The happier the fans are, the more it shows how nervous they are and how eager they are for a goal.

"Messi also scored two goals! Now the score is 2:2! Barcelona and Atletico Madrid draw! Messi caught up with Caesar!"

Messi got a little excited after the goal, and he gradually entered the state of the game.

All the teammates rushed up from behind, and they were happier than Messi.

"The first half is coming to an end! The two teams set off an offensive frenzy!"

Generally speaking, the 5 minutes at the beginning and end of each half is the easiest time to score goals.

The two teams have completely let go and started a confrontational battle.

"Messi shot! Courtois confiscated the ball!"

"Koke cross! Costa tipped the ball!"

"Caesar cuts in from the left side! Adriano struggles to defend! Puyol comes out to defend! Caesar goes to the middle! Turan shoots from a distance! Valdez struggles to save the ball!"

"The game was very exciting, the two teams continued to attack! I am afraid that this is something that all fans did not expect before the game. Blessed are the fans of Camp Nou today!"

In the end, the two teams failed to expand the score, and entered the intermission with a score of 2:2.

Messi is a bit tired, he is not that strong physically and has never been an active player.Under the leadership of the team's rhythm in this half, he has already run a lot more than usual.

When God gave Messi great skill, he took away his stamina.

On the other hand, Caesar is still alive and well.

After he scored twice, Barcelona became tighter on his defense.Caesar wanted to help his teammates score, but Costa was in a mediocre state today and missed two opportunities.
