The players on both sides have already stood on the pitch, and the players of Leeds United can't help but look at the referee Tom Herning. They all want to know, how can their head coach make everyone pay attention to the referee, and don't get any handle on this guy?
However, since Zhong Cheng said so, everyone is taking it seriously and will not give this guy any chance to attack.
Just then, Tom Herning blew the whistle of the start of the game.
At the beginning of the game, the Barcelona team had a very strong Barcelona style, and it was also imprinted with a deep Guardiola brand.
Yes, Guardiola's team is extremely demanding for ball possession!
Yes, since Cruyff came to Barcelona, ​​he brought here the genes that emphasize ball control. The previous head coach may not have paid too much attention to this, but Barcelona has used this set from the first team to the youth training Lamacia youth training camp. Pass and control, and ball control is especially important.
However, after Rijkaard came to Barcelona, ​​he raised the ball to a very important position. After Guardiola came, he pushed this "ball control theory" to the extreme.
During Rijkaard, Barcelona's average possession was between 55% and 65%. After Guardiola took over Barcelona, ​​Barcelona's game possession rate reached 70% -80%.
Yes, in La Liga, you often see a situation where Barcelona players siege opponents for a long time, the opponents are very difficult to get the ball.
This is the most obvious change Guardiola has made since accepting Barcelona.
Although it continued Rijkaard's tactical system, or continuity of Cruyff's Barcelona system, he pushed this to the extreme.
In addition, Guardiola also continued Rijkaard's high-intensity grabbing, interspersed movement without the ball, and emphasized the assists of the full-back.
These three points are also those that Guardiola strongly identifies with Rijkaard. Of course, this is also Barcelona's inherent tactical system, but Rijkaard made him a complete tactical system with his own brand. Guardiola continued and pushed him to another level.
Of course, after taking over Barcelona, ​​Guardiola also upgraded and transformed Rijkaard's tactical system, or the traditional Barcelona tactical system, and deeply imprinted his Guardiola brand.
The main thing is the use of "4" players.
Here at Guardiola, the "position 4" player is very important, that is, the player in the traditional back position. Players in this position must frequently retreat to play a central defender position, allowing Barcelona players to change formations when attacking, becoming 3-4-3 and so on. Under such use, it can be guaranteed that the two Barcelona wingbacks assist at the same time, resulting in a number advantage, and more points in the frontcourt and more lines of movement, attracting the attention of the opponent's defense force……
In fact, Zhong Cheng is also using it at this point, and the back is often dragged to play a central defender.
However, the requirements of these two people are still different!
In Zhong Cheng's tactics, the running ability and sweeping ability in the back waist position are the most important. Not only can he be able to drag back to play the central defender in some cases, but the main thing is to have a super strong in the center and backcourt. The coverage area has super predictive ability and interception ability.
And Guardiola's main thing here is to emphasize a supplement to the back line, forming a completed three-back system, giving the two side wing guards more opportunities for forward assists. And in this position there must be some ability to organize offense, and also have a good ability to pass.
Therefore, although Zhong Cheng and Guardiola both need to be dragged to become a central defender. However, there is still a lot of difference in the focus of the two requirements. This is where the tactical philosophy of the two coaches differs.
Obviously, Guardiola's tactics are to emphasize the attack more, increase the range of two wingbacks' forward assists, and even float in the frontcourt for a long time to form a partial number advantage to intersperse and run and tear the opponent's Line of defense.
This is also the side that shows that Barcelona has a long time to control the ball. There are more frontcourt players, more choices for receiving and exiting points, and they are useful and tacit. In this case, their ball possession rate can't be expected. difficult.
Guardiola's No. 4 player is very important in offense and counterattack. He can directly take the ball forward, he is equivalent to directly attacking the central defender ...
Of course, Guardiola still has a lot of deep things about Barcelona's transformation. This is not something that can be said and understood clearly in a sentence or two. If you really want to say it, it's really a long story.
With regard to Guardiola's arrangement, offense, penetration, and cohesion of the offensive combination in the frontcourt, it is enough to do a few analysis and tutorials on offensive tactics.
One of the most visible features is the no frontal formation!
Many times Barcelona's corresponding center Eto'o wants to float to the left or right. He rarely stands upright at the center. Because he wants to create more interspersed runs, attract the attention of defensive players and so on.
In fact, the most important thing is to leave more space for Leo Messi, a pseudo-9 player, to give Messi more space. There are also more opportunities for Leo Messi, Xavi and Iniesta to connect ...
Therefore, Barcelona's tactics are actually very complicated.
But for now, Guardiola's tactical characteristics are very clear.
Ball control, emphasizing complete control over football. For Guardiola, controlling football is controlling the source of life and controlling the initiative.
When Barcelona controlled the ball, Barcelona's formation change was very obvious. More often, their two full-backs are pressed at the same time, changing the formation to 3-4-3, or even 3-2-5 and so on.
Especially when it becomes 3-2-5, it is very scary. Leeds United's defensive players are under great pressure. There are too many opponents and they are constantly interspersing and running. This is the pressure on their defense. Very big.
The high-intensity and high-defense defense of Leeds United is not able to withstand it!
Fortunately, the players of Leeds United are relatively mature. Now, they know how to deal with a team that works like Barcelona.
Leeds United players have significantly increased oppression and fouls!
Yes, the players of Leeds United have just received Zhong Cheng's request, which is to destroy, and not let the Barcelona people easily pass the football down. At the same time, it also oppressed and intimidated the Barcelona people and caused them fear.
From the beginning, almost all Barcelona were in possession of the ball. The Leeds United were fouling. The game had just begun five minutes and the Barcelona had been brought down by the Leeds United many times.
Especially for Leo Messi's defense, Leeds United is very strict.
Zhong Cheng reminded the players of Leeds United that they can't tolerate Leo Messi, they must be fouled thoroughly, don't be indecisive, this little flea-like character, you have no chance, and He slipped away.
Therefore, the players of Leeds United are playing according to Zhong Cheng's arrangement. So during this time, Messi was violated a little bit. Basically, he was put down as soon as he took the ball. There was almost no good chance of taking the ball.
Leeds players were also very good at fouling, not too big a move. Because Lionel Messi is too thin in front of Leeds United's players, referee Tom Herning is also not good at blowing.
Moreover, Leeds United's players hardly gave Leo Messi a chance to get close to the Leeds United restricted area, and they just fell down. Zhong Cheng said that, don't give the Barcelona people too good free kick chances, let alone Tom Herning.
So, this time, the Barcelona people are playing very awkwardly!
After the Barcelona player passed the ball at the centre-back, Zhong Cheng let a Diego Milito attack in the frontcourt, and did not let the Leeds players all over. And Leeds United's defense line is kept very complete, even if the Barcelona people are constantly interspersing and running, there is really little chance to speak the truth.
Guardiola's brows are locked tightly, this is a very serious problem!
Still, Guardiola's time to take over Barcelona is too short, less than a season. Still has not been able to completely transform Barcelona, ​​Barcelona has not yet reached the height of the universe.
There are still some problems, but Guardiola needs more time and energy.
Guardiola saw her brows frantically rising up here, Zhong Cheng is really very powerful. Although his team looks very dirty and plays a dirty football based on destruction, you have to say that Leeds United let go very well, the strength and hardness are very high and oppressive It is suffocating.
Even a team with such a strong ability to control the ball in Barcelona felt a sense of suffocation. It can only be said that Zhong Cheng built the Leeds United team very well.
Guardiola frowned, and his Barcelona was experiencing a serious problem.
In the first round of the two sides, the game became zero to zero. Guardiola did not have much to do with Leeds United. Now it seems that it is time to return to the first round of the two sides. Barcelona is difficult to penetrate the line of defense what!
Guardiola shook his head constantly. Zhong Cheng is really strong. Is this my rival to Guardiola?
Guardiola signaled that Barcelona players should increase their movements, increase their penetration and tear the Leeds United defence.
"Pretty, Loya's defense is really strong, even a perverted team like Barcelona doesn't have many opportunities in front of their defense. Loya is really amazing!" Eddie Gray heartily admired .
"Uhhhhhhhh! The ball was cut off in the frontcourt, and the pie in the sky was about to hit the Leeds United team!" Mark Lawrence suddenly exclaimed, his voice very loud.
All the Leeds fans at the scene were very surprised.
"Pretty, the ball was intercepted! Diego Milito in the frontcourt intercepted the ball. He cut off the pass from Marquis to Xavi. Cristiano Ronaldo on the wing quickly cut in, beautiful Inclined, Leeds United chance! "Eddie Gray growled excitedly.
All Barcelona fans took a breath and were very nervous.
Barcelona's defensive players are extremely nervous, and their hairs have risen because Cristiano Ronaldo on the side is too fast.
Danger!
Diego Millito just pushed the football to the sideline, but also pushed it diagonally, giving Cristiano Ronaldo a rapid sprint.
Cristiano Ronaldo sprinted quickly, like a sharp dagger straight into the heart of Barcelona!
