Chapter 173: Unstoppable Barcelona!
"Li Ao! Beautiful interception!!"
Duan Xuan's tone was extremely excited.
"He blocked Messi's breakthrough!!"
If you just listen to his explanation.
If you didn't watch the game.
Some people must have thought that Li Ao snatched the ball from Messi's feet in a one-on-one conversation with Messi.
But in fact, this is just stealing Messi's pass from the side.
But even so.
It also made Chinese people including Duan Xuan proud.
To know.
Li Ao's opponent is Messi.
It's Messi, the number one superstar in the world!!
Able to steal his passes cleanly in defense.
That is also not easy to do.
However, Li Ao, who completed this task, didn't think it was a big deal.
He just anticipated the opponent's passing line.
And there is a high probability that Messi did not expect that he could predict his pass so accurately.
Completing the steal is just the beginning.
The key is how to fight back.
After stealing the ball, Li Ao crossed to Cross, and then continued to press forward.
Messi was a little surprised.
He was dribbling the ball.
Didn't notice what was going on around him at all.
He didn't know how Li Ao suddenly appeared on this passing line.
It stands to reason.
Shouldn't he have come up with Cross for the ball?
Li Ao passes the ball to Cross.
Bayern Munich fought back.
However, the Football Association's counterattack this time failed to create much threat.
In the end it was a cross from Ribery, which turned out to be slightly higher.
Football bypassed Mandzukic.
Headed off the sideline by Pique.
Bayern Munich's counterattack failed to create much threat.
However, considering that they were under the threat of Barcelona and Messi before, this penalty is also a good thing for Bayern Munich.
Taking advantage of the dead ball.
People only saw the scene of Li Ao stealing Messi's pass from the replay of the TV broadcast.
At first Li Ao just threw himself at Messi normally.
Going to do a close-door defense with Cross.
But in the process.
He suddenly turned a corner and accelerated to the line connecting Messi and Anista.
He's just in place.
Messi passed the ball.
This action even looks like a hit and miss.
But anyone who knows Li Ao will not think that Li Ao is lucky.
Harvey glanced at Li Ao.
This is not the first time.
Messi's previous breakthroughs were also resolved by this kid.
He seems to be very familiar with the Barcelona set.
This is really unbelievable.
He has never played a single game in Barcelona.
Harvey's thinking was taken astray.
He thought it was because Li Ao had studied Barcelona so deeply that he could understand Barcelona's way of playing football so well.
Who would have thought.
Is it because of Li Ao's ability to predict.........
next game.
Barcelona players feel very unhappy.
Because their fluid passing in midfield seems to have disappeared.
Li Ao always appeared in key positions, cutting off key passing lanes.
If Barcelona is like a passing machine.
Well now the passing machine is out of oil.
It was creaking when it was running.
Lost fluid passing.
Bayern Munich also quickly took advantage.
Especially in midfield.
The three midfielders composed of Li Ao, Cross, and Schweinsteiger have gradually taken advantage of Barcelona's midfield trio.
This is all due to Li Ao's running and ability to predict the opponent's pass.
His position tends to make Barcelona's passers and receivers quite uncomfortable.
Sometimes even in order to avoid being directly intercepted by Li Ao to counterattack. (cdch)
Barcelona had to play back more kicks.
Try to slow down the pace.
But Bayern Munich didn't give them this chance.
After going through the trial of the opening stage.
The Bayern Munich players have a... Barcelona, but that's it.
In fact, this season's Barcelona did drop a lot in terms of dominance.
And Bayern Munich?
They are on a slow ascent.
so.
After some trials.
Bayern Munich are starting to show their fangs!
....
It's high-intensity frontcourt pressing!
Bayern Munich's frontcourt players pressed up, forcing Barcelona to speed up the passing speed and movement.
The result is a rhythm piece.
There is a greater chance of mistakes!
Pique's through pass from the backcourt went to the center circle to find Harvey.
Before Harvey received the ball, he saw a figure rushing up.
It's Li Ao!
Harvey didn't hesitate.
Grit your teeth and start immediately.
However.
Harvey was thirty-three years old at this time.
No matter the speed of response.
Or startup speed.
Or confrontation.
When facing eighteen-year-old Li Ao.
Almost completely at a disadvantage!!
Li Ao stretched his legs.
Harvey was stuck behind him.
The generous back also gave Harvey a physical confrontation!
He didn't say how nice he was to Xavi because he was the benchmark for a midfielder.
In Li Ao's view.
The utmost respect for the opponent.
Just go all out!!
Harvey was staggered by Li Ao.
Then I could only watch Li Ao take the ball and go forward!
after the game.
This scene was broadcast back and forth by countless media and TV stations.
'This is the handover ceremony of the best midfielder!'
Some Chinese media said so when commenting on this picture.
and this.
It was also the beginning of Barcelona's rout at home.
When Bayern Munich bared its ferocious fangs at the aging Cosmos.
The ending is already doomed.
Li Ao drove the ball across half court.
Facing Busquets' defense, he chose to pass the ball straight to center Mandzukic who retreated to respond.
Mandzukic pulled out to the arc of the penalty area to respond.
The role of the big center was revealed at this time.
He became the fulcrum of the frontcourt.
It's like a wall.
After Li Ao's pass reached his feet.
Pique behind him was suppressed by force.
There is no way to steal the ball.
Mascherano wants to go around and steal.
But before that.
Mandzukic has passed the ball!!
After Li Ao passed the ball, he continued to slash.
Because he started earlier than Busquets.
In addition, Busquets has to turn around and chase back.
So Li Ao briefly gets room to catch the ball.
Li Ao meets Mandzukic's pass.
He didn't look at the situation in the penalty area.
Just kicking straight in the middle of running!!
After this pass, Li Ao barely slowed down and continued to rush towards the penalty area!
on the sidewalk.
Robben receives a pass from Li Ao near the baseline along the left box line.
at the same time.
In the middle.
Mandzukic, Li Ao, and Ribery have formed a three-point support from the front, the middle, and the back.
behind them.
And Cross and Schweinsteiger who waited for the inverted triangle pass on the penalty line and shot long shots!!
A through ball.
Gets Robben a passing spot with several good passing targets.
at the same time.
restricted area line, restricted area arc.
After forming a three-dimensional attack in depth.
Bayern Munich's attack was like a tank crushed into a trench defended by infantry.
Barcelona's defensive system.
At this moment, it was completely in chaos.
Most players choose to shrink the penalty area.
There are also those who press out to make up for the gap in the arc of the penalty area.
However, while the Barcelona players were still in a hurry to choose their positions,
Robben's pass has come.
Selected...
It's the previous point!!
When the football flies out.
Baldr came to attack.
But he hesitated after seeing the weakness of the ball.
Robben's pass was a little outside.
So if he attacks.
Likely to miss the ball!
Of course.
If Valdés insists on attacking, it is not impossible, he just rushes out in one breath, even if he can't get the ball, he can interfere with the opponent's header.
And it is Li Ao who hits this point.
For Li Ao's.
Robben's pass is slightly outside.
He was going to hit it with a header.
If you attack the goal directly, you are not sure.
But he changed his mind when he saw that Valdez hadn't come out.
He retreated two steps, and then removed the chest protector.
He did not continue to observe.
Valdez's position has been firmly engraved in his mind.
Li Ao took a decisive kick!!
A low shot aimed at the near post!
Valdes is also anticipating Li Ao's options when he gets the ball.
He believes that the opponent will most likely choose to head the ball at that location and then find Mandzukic.
So after he didn't choose to attack, he moved a step in the direction of Mandzukic.
However, Li Ao's handling was beyond his expectation again.
Li Ao's choice is....stop the ball!
Then turn and volley!!
Valdez's step back was fatal.
He hadn't had time to pounce on the near post again.
The football has already passed by his feet.
All he saw when he looked back...was the football hitting the net.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!"
Mark yelled after being stunned for a moment.
"G00000000000000000000000000AL!!!!!!"
"Li Ao! Goal!!!"
Duan Xuan is also very excited!!
"Li Ao scored against Barcelona! Fourteenth goal in the Champions League this season!! He continues to cement his place in the Champions League goalscoring list!!"
"One to zero! Bayern Munich took the lead in the away game, this is a very precious away goal!!!!"
Duan Xuan said excitedly.
Can't blame him for being excited.
Barcelona's players were not much better.
When they faced Bayern Munich, they felt a sense of powerlessness.
This feeling is like hitting a nemesis.....
foot technology.
People are no worse than you.
Midfield hardness, stronger than you.
The attack speed is also fast!
More critical is.
Bayern Munich's players are physically stronger and taller than Barcelona.
In the case of almost the same technical difference.
such a gap.
But it's really terrible...
After Bayern Munich tried out the true strength of this Barcelona team.
Barcelona began to feel the strength of Bayern Munich.
They actually fell behind in the midfield competition, facing Bayern Munich's direct and sharp attack.
Barcelona was a little overwhelmed.
When the Barcelona players looked confused.
Bayern Munich's players were celebrating their goals at Camp Nou
Li Ao, the goal scorer, opened his arms and hugged the rushing teammates with a big smile.
It can be seen from the smiles of the Bayern Munich players.
This moment.
They are about to reach the Champions League final.
Full of confidence!!.
