Chapter 557: Barcelona's Counterattack
Compared with the previous Barcelona lineup that pursued offense, being able to put up such a defensive lineup at the Nou Camp is actually considered bold enough for Rexach. After all, although Barcelona fans are very loyal, they are also as stubborn as ever. A conservative Barcelona is not the team they want to see.

Corresponding to Rexach, Bosque put on an all-out offensive lineup in this game. Of course, this lineup has not changed much from the past. After all, the team's offensive firepower has been verified in previous games. .

This is the fourth time for Liu Han to participate in the National Derby, but even so he is still a little puzzled by the "enmity" between Real Madrid and Barcelona. After all, no one has told him that the two teams are not only It is the relationship between the league opponents. He has no idea that Real Madrid and Barcelona are actually a confrontation between the unity and division of Spain.

With the referee's whistle, Real Madrid kicked off first.

After Liu Han kicked off the ball in the middle circle, he passed the ball back to Zidane behind. Open the opponent's formation to find a suitable passing space and line.

Barcelona was quite conservative after the start of the game. Except for Cocu who was a little bit forward in the double defensive midfielders, Roschenback and central defender Abelardo mainly guarded against Liu Han.

In the last national derby, Rexach placed Puyol, who is not tall but extremely strong, as a central defender on the back line. However, due to Puyol's size problem, Liu Han dominated that game The whole high-altitude ball made Barcelona extremely passive in defense, so in this national derby, Rexach put Puyol in the right back position, and asked the tall and tall Abelardo to follow Liu Han specifically. I hope it can limit Liu Han's performance.

If Rexach’s plan was made a year ago, it might have made Liu Han feel a little uncomfortable, but after this season’s tempering, Liu Han has actually already adapted to such “meticulous” care, and he has never taken care of him now. Instead of actively provoking confrontation, on the contrary, he always uses his flexible running position and various fake moves in a small area to sway the defenders. Compared with Liu Han a year ago, Liu Han now can flexibly play in various modes Switch down, he can be an unstoppable tank when he is strong, or a long-range homing missile when he is smart.

The Real Madrid players gradually took control of the midfield after kick-off, but to their surprise, Barcelona did not compete with them for control of the midfield as they did in the past, except for Rivaldo and Kluivert. In addition, all Barcelona players retreated to defend, and most of the players were concentrated within 35 meters of the goal. This made it difficult for Real Madrid to attack.

Faced with such a situation, Real Madrid did not rush forward. They have been patiently in the middle of the field, looking for loopholes in Barcelona's defense. Zidane has seen this situation many times. When he was in Juventus, he I have long been accustomed to this kind of strict Serie A defense, so under his support, Real Madrid played very steadily.

The two sides have been in a stalemate since the start of the game. The passivity on the scene and the slowness of the game made the Barcelona fans present feel very bored. Even the most loyal Barcelona fans are dissatisfied with the team's performance at this moment, and their personality is more romantic and unrestrained What the Spaniard likes to see is a fierce game, not a half-time offensive and defensive drill.

Barcelona didn't find a chance to shoot until 10 minutes into the game. Rivaldo took a long shot from outside the penalty area after receiving a pass from Cocu in the midfield in the 24th minute.

However, perhaps the Real Madrid players were too relaxed in this slow pace of the game, or Real Madrid's aging defense appeared distracted at a certain moment. Barcelona got a chance in a counterattack in the No. 307 minute of the game.

In the 307th minute of the game, Barcelona made a mistake in passing the ball in the front court. When Guti took the ball from the left and tried to pass it to Raul, Puyol intercepted the ball, and then Puyol passed the ball to the forward. Enrique.

When Enrique received the ball, Carlos behind him had already pushed up, but Enrique discovered this very astutely. He didn't stop the ball, but directly rubbed the ball and passed it to Kluivert in the middle.

Although Kluivert, who became famous at a young age, wasted his talent year after year in Barcelona, ​​he has to admit that his physical fitness is still very good. After leaning back against Hierro, Kluivert is stable Holding the ball firmly, he then passed it to Rivaldo outside the penalty area before the Real Madrid defender double-teamed. As soon as the beautiful curved ball arrived, the football went straight to the upper left corner of Real Madrid's goal with a strong rotation.

Although Casillas made a save very quickly, he failed to save the football and Barcelona took the lead.

Barcelona, ​​which advocated offense in the past, scored first with a counterattack, which surprised all Barcelona fans, but after all, they are ahead, so no one cares about it anymore.

With mixed feelings, the Barcelona fans applauded their team's goal, although the applause didn't sound warm at all.

Bosque on the sidelines frowned somewhat dissatisfied. Bosque is very dissatisfied with the team's defense now.

The game continued, Real Madrid still had the advantage in the midfield, but Barcelona also returned to the defensive state again, they seriously implemented the head coach's pre-match arrangements, Rexach may not be a very good coach, but at least his defense Well organized.

Both teams failed to achieve anything in the following games. Real Madrid had no good way to face Barcelona's retreat, and Barcelona completely turned to defense after taking the lead. This situation is even worse than that of Serie A teams.

At the end of halftime, Barcelona walked into the locker room with a score of [-]-[-].

"Hey, Zidan, are we in Italy or Spain? Why do I feel that it's Juventus, not Barcelona."

As soon as he returned to the locker room, Carlos couldn't help complaining that he had almost no chance to perform in the first half, and even if he rushed to the frontcourt, he had no room to perform.

"I also feel strange. To be honest, I wonder if the opponent is wearing the wrong jersey, or their jersey is not dyed in the right color."

Zidane also unexpectedly joked.

Although the team is behind, there is no problem with the confidence of the current Real Madrid team.
