After time travel, I can only beat up the national football team

Chapter 78: Heaven and earth live together?

"The one who stepped on the horse thought he had some clever plan, but it turned out that he was still vulnerable!"

Zhang Desheng really thought Barcelona had some trump card at first, but as soon as he came back to get the ball according to Mourinho's instructions, Mendieta and Patrick, who replaced Philip as central defender today, collapsed together!
Also, can Riquelme counterattack?

This is really good, but the front midfielder is a bit too slow.

He has a late-come-first-come, Tai Chi-like kicking style, but this style is outdated.

So let him be the core in the middle. No matter what tactics Barcelona plays, the rhythm will be too slow, because his teammates are not very cooperative, and he himself does not seem to have the ability to dribble the ball at high speed.

This is the biggest problem. If it's okay to just slow down, Zidane and Rui Costa will also slow down in many cases, and then suddenly launch a fatal blow.

But when the team needs to be fast, you can be fast too!
And this is Riquelme's biggest problem, it will be difficult for him to adapt to the development of football.

Zhang Desheng really couldn't figure out why Van Gaal would counterattack and let Riquelme be the core player with the ball?

In the first 15 minutes of the first half, Barcelona only got two counterattack opportunities, but they failed to pose any threat at all, because the midfielders were obviously not in the same rhythm, and their style was obviously different from Riquelme's.

Both Xavi and Iniesta like to rely on their extraordinary dribbling skills to find opportunities to break defenses, or create opportunities with sudden through balls while constantly passing and pulling.

All in all, they must actively participate in the offense and must always be able to touch the ball in order to display their abilities.

But Riquelme always picks up and controls the ball slowly by himself, relying on his strong body and top-notch ball-protecting ability to attract defenses, and then suddenly delivers a fatal blow when his teammates around him are actively running around!
This leads to the fact that even if Barcelona has a chance to counterattack, as long as the ball is given to Riquelme, it will slow down the team's counterattack speed and even appear that he is too independent.

Porto's quick handover and multi-level outflanking pressure, which is clearly half the version ahead, are actually not very afraid of this last century style of play, especially the last century style of play where teammates are not very cooperative.

"Awesome, this is really a pure single-core style of play! If you go to a mid-level team, you will bring your own system, but if you go to a top team, you will abolish the team's original system!"

Zhang Desheng took a look at Barcelona with Riquelme as the core. To put it bluntly, the whole team moves around with him as the center. Everyone must serve him, even sacrificing their own characteristics.

But the problem is that Barcelona players are not good at playing like this, especially if they are unwilling to play like this.

You, an outsider, actually let us people from La Masia treat you as green leaves. Do you think you are a bit Israeli?
Xavi and Iniesta feel uncomfortable at this moment. They are both being used as tools. If they continue to play like this for a long time, both of them will be destroyed.

So even if you really try your best to assist Riquelme, you won't be unable to perform well, but players like Xavi and Iniesta, will they be willing to be such green leaves that suppress their own talents?

Even if they are willing, Barcelona will not be willing, and even Spanish fans have objections.

Zhang Desheng will never play with such a veteran core. If he is asked to be a pure support for Riquelme who plays with this style of play, then he will definitely force the management in less than three days - or he will Go, or I go, only one of us can stay!
At that time, all he had to do was raise his arms and ensure that most of the players on the team would join him to force the palace, because there is no one who can play as the main player in a top team without some unique characteristics and special skills of his own. Even Maradona at his peak will not do it. Maybe let us sacrifice ourselves to cooperate with you.

There is no way, they will still be defeated if they play like this. The most typical example here is actually Mendieta on the opposite side.

Isn't this person in Serie A just because he was used as an engineer for two years? As a result, he went from a 9-series super giant in the top ten of the Ballon d'Or Award to an early-stage 8-series with no spirituality and can no longer find his form.

In the 18th minute of the first half, Deco and Maniche had a wonderful collision with the wall, and then took the ball and reached the penalty area.

At this time, Barcelona's defensive strength was still sufficient. Even if Deco broke into the dangerous area, he had no chance to shoot the ball, and most of his shots were stray shots.

But the accident happened at this moment. Zhang Desheng took advantage of Patrick's slow turn and suddenly accelerated and then stopped in reverse. The football was passed in front of him in this fleeting opportunity.

Zhang Desheng had no idea of ​​passing the ball again this time. He first turned his back to the goal and skillfully lifted the ball into the air. He elegantly passed Puyol who rushed over to cover the ball in the crowd, and then played in the small area before the football landed. He turned around and volleyed the ball from the penalty area line, directly hitting the turf in front of the attacking Roberto Bonano.

This is the incredible thing about Zhang Desheng's ability to seize opportunities. These are actually consecutive actions he made in the blink of an eye. Each one of them will be surprisingly discovered when played back - they are all the most reasonable choices. And even 0.1 seconds slower may have different results.

But he made all the right choices in a blink of an eye and executed every action perfectly.

The last bounce ball was the essence of the essence. The enemy goalkeeper who attacked, including the defenders who wanted to save in front of the goal, all had difficulty in making pre-judged saves and interceptions. The ball finally passed the goal of several Barcelona players. The interceptor bounced into the goal. "The ball is in!"

"This is a real penalty area killer goal!"

"We had no idea how he could make so many instantaneous movements quickly and accurately in the crowd!"

"But this is what top players have to worry about. There is some money that only this group of people can earn."

"It's enough for us to just cheer for our team and the genius who contributed this wonderful goal. Does anyone want to replicate it on the court?"

"Now, the Catalans on the field listen up, this is the home court of our blue and white dragon, we will swallow you up in one bite right away, not even the bones will be left!"

"..."

Porto's commentary is now inflated, which would not have been so contemptuous and humiliating for a team like Barcelona just a few months ago.

But now everyone just thinks that it is normal to return to the home court and abuse Barcelona again?

We beat you 5-0 in the away game, so little Barcelona will suffer the consequences!
Barcelona was indeed dangerous at this time. After seeing the ball conceded so early, Van Gaal even closed his eyes.

He could already see the outcome of today's game without opening his eyes, so his ending would be obvious. It seems that the resignation letter he wrote in advance can be taken out after today's game.

Mourinho did not celebrate loudly at this time. He rarely sat calmly on the stool.

This can be regarded as a kind of respect for Van Gaal. After all, he is also a famous coach in his prime, but he still encountered such a miserable Waterloo in Barcelona.

This makes him feel like a victim of others, even though he is now enjoying great fame due to his outstanding performance in Porto.

But whenever the team's performance deteriorates like Barcelona's, then he, the head coach, will be the first to be pushed to take the blame.

Mourinho even felt that his and Van Gaal's debut trajectories were very similar. Both of them led a top team to great success in a top league that was slightly inferior to the four major leagues. Even Van Gaal had already taken the lead. It worked, and he was just on the road to success.

So after seeing Van Gaal go from the Eredivisie to La Liga, and from Ajax to Barcelona, ​​he actually hit such a wall!

He couldn't help but think that if he succeeded in Porto in the future and climbed to a higher stage, would he be like Van Gaal and go from a winner to a loser in the blink of an eye?
"This Van Gaal, doesn't he want to live forever before he leaves?"

After Zhang Desheng saw that Barcelona's offense made him feel very uncomfortable, and it was true that he could not penetrate Porto's defense, he suddenly had such an idea?
It is no secret that the relationship between Van Gaal and Riquelme is tense. Even the direct internal strife in the last game was exposed by insiders afterwards.

So it seems to make sense that after Van Gaal knew that he wouldn't be able to stay in Barcelona for long, he wanted to take Riquelme away with him?

Of course, no matter what problems the other party has internally, it will be a great benefit to Porto anyway.

He even thought that this Patrick might have a grudge against Van Gaal, because this guy's turning speed is too slow and his explosive power is not fast. Although his defensive awareness and psychology are much better than the idiot who played, but he met him It’s the same as delivering food! ?

In the 23rd minute of the first half, after Zhang Desheng cooperated with his teammates again, he turned around and ran out of a line that Patrick couldn't catch.

Mendieta hurriedly made up the defense, Zhang Desheng kept hitting the ball with his heel, and Deco met him with a long shot from outside the penalty area, almost knocking on Barcelona's door again.

It was obvious that he was pushed to the ground and beaten violently. What should Barcelona do now?

However, Van Gaal still closed his eyes, and Riquelme was still surrounded by players from both teams.

Then there is nothing you can do, Barcelona can only find a more comfortable position to lie down!
