After the opening, both sides played relatively conservatively.

In the 14-15 season of the Champions League, Manchester City and Barcelona played against each other four times in the group stage and the knockout stage.

Barcelona played cleanly and won all four games, making Manchester City cry.

This is also the reason why Manchester City management urgently needs Guardiola to take over.

Manchester City's performance in the Champions League is too bad.

In the 15-16 season, the two sides did not have a record of playing against each other in the Champions League.

From the past record, Barcelona has an absolute psychological advantage.

In the past two seasons, Manchester City has been frantically strengthening, while Barcelona's strengthening pace has stagnated and its combat effectiveness has declined.

Therefore, the two sides were in a tentative stage at the beginning, and Barcelona needed to know how Manchester City played specifically now.

Barcelona's midfield has Busquets, Iniesta, and Rakitic. Even if the control is inferior to that of Habab in his prime, it is definitely the best in Europe.

In the long league, they may become weak due to physical fitness and mental state.

In the Champions League, they will not make mistakes easily.

Once Barcelona's midfield is in good shape, and they frequently cooperate with the front trident to play a smooth attack, any team may suffer in Camp Nou.

So at the beginning of the game, Zhao Yi's position was very flexible.

He not only marked Rakitic, but also moved closer to the middle to put enough pressure on Busquets.

Kante was of course responsible for marking Iniesta.

David Silva, Kante, and Zhao Yi caused a lot of trouble for Barcelona's midfield organization.

Zhao Yi moved fast and had strong confrontation ability.

When he tried his best to defend, he did put enough pressure on Busquets.

"Zhao Yi is nominally a winger, but in fact, he and De Bruyne often switch positions during the game.

De Bruyne, a midfielder who was born as a winger, can indeed adapt well to this position change.

Barcelona's midfield has some problems with passing the ball, Neymar and Messi need to retreat..."

Sure enough, after Neymar and Messi retreated, they took the ball on the wing and used their breakthrough ability to smoothly bring the ball to the front court.

Brought a lot of trouble to Manchester City's two wingers.

Kyle Walker is very fast and strong in confrontation, but he is still a little uncomfortable when encountering a player like Neymar who has outstanding skills and a very good rhythm.

It's okay to be able to barely keep up with Neymar.

On the field, Manchester City was a little passive after the opening.

After Messi and Neymar retreated and took the ball, they were often able to score the ball into the offensive third zone.

In the tenth minute of the game, Barcelona's first threatening attack appeared.

Neymar held the ball on the wing and pulled the ball very well, which took Kyle Walker's center of gravity away.

Strongly rushing to the inside.

"Neymar! Look at this attack!"

After Neymar passed Kyle Walker, Kante filled in the position very timely, preventing Neymar from continuing to walk into the penalty area.

However, Neymar's creativity and passing ability are excellent.

He quickly passed the ball to Suarez in the middle, and then immediately inserted and took away the defensive player.

Manchester City's defense thought that Suarez would pass the ball to Neymar or Iniesta who was facing Neymar.

As a result, Suarez stomped the ball behind him.

This is the power of Barcelona's trident. Not only are their individual strengths outstanding, but their cooperation is also very tacit.

Messi at the back point received the ball and rushed into the penalty area in an instant.

Manchester City's defense became nervous.

Messi's center of gravity is low enough, and his rhythm changes are stronger.

His dribbling ability and shooting ability are absolutely world-class.

Messi's dodging and maneuvering in the penalty area are dazzling.

Manchester City players dared not to kick the ball easily, so they could only quickly surround it and seize the opportunity to destroy the ball.

Messi cut all the way from the wing to the middle.

Suarez had already vacated his position and quickly moved to the right.

Not only did he give Messi enough space, but he could also take away Manchester City's defenders.

If Manchester City's defenders did not immediately follow Messi's surgical pass, they would create a chance for Suarez to shoot.

Sure enough, Stones was just one step slower, and Messi's ankle shook.

The football passed through Manchester City's last line of defense and arrived in front of Suarez.

As soon as this gap appeared, many fans at Camp Nou stood up.

They had seen MSN's cooperation many times, but they would never get tired of it.

They felt that they had seen Suarez's celebration after scoring a goal.

As a top shooter, Suarez would certainly not miss this opportunity.

Before the ball arrived, Suarez had already adjusted.

So the moment the ball arrived, Suarez had already kicked it up.

Stones reacted quickly and kicked in time to block the far corner.

SuSuarez shot the ball, but it was still at an angle.

Ederson, who was very focused, rushed out horizontally!

His goal line technique was still better than Bravo's.

He tried his best to block the ball with both hands!

Bang!

Suarez's shot at a small angle was bravely resolved by Ederson.

The ball was too powerful, and Ederson could not confiscate it directly.

This time, it bounced to Barcelona's left attack.

Manchester City's defense was still in chaos, and Neymar, who followed, rushed to Kyle Walker and kicked it out!

Ederson, who fell to the ground, just got up and made another second save.

But it was too late.

It was too close.

Neymar's reaction was too fast.

A supplementary shot, the ball hit the net.

The ball went in!

The perfect cooperation of Barcelona's trident, Neymar passed the ball, Suarez made the ball, and Messi passed the ball again after entering the penalty area.

Suarez used his flexible running position to shoot, and then Neymar scored with a follow-up shot!

Manchester City's defense was indeed a little embarrassed in just a dozen seconds.

Camp Nou erupted with a fierce roar.

It was like the ancient monster Godzilla had awakened.

Neymar rushed out of the stadium and ran with his arms open.

Barcelona fans responded fiercely to the crown prince of Camp Nou.

Since coming to Barcelona, ​​many fans have regarded Neymar as Messi's successor.

With the help of Messi, Neymar has grown rapidly and has become the third person in football after Messi and Ronaldo.

In Barcelona, ​​Neymar's popularity is second only to Messi.

Messi and Suarez ran over together, Neymar turned around, and the three hugged each other.

Celebrate this wonderful moment together.

The trident embraced, this beautiful and moving moment, is one of the most classic scenes in football.

Neymar, he thought he would become the king of Camp Nou in another year or two.

Unfortunately, things did not go as planned. Barcelona fans like him very much, but he can never be compared with Messi.

As long as Messi is there, the king of Camp Nou will always belong to Messi.

Of course, Barcelona fans also overestimated their influence. They thought that as long as they supported Messi, Messi would stay in Camp Nou forever, and the two sides would become a good story.

Barcelona fans have always ridiculed the top management of Real Madrid for being cold-blooded, only business, no human feelings.

Unexpectedly, the boomerang hit their heads.

The first person in Barcelona's history finally shed tears at the press conference and left sadly.

Compared with Ronaldo leaving the Bernabeu, it is even more sad.

In the end, Barcelona lost its crown prince, and even the king was driven away.

After gloating for a while, Real Madrid fans were left with only sighs.

It's meaningless. There are no more challengers in La Liga.
