Vol 4 Chapter 911: Terrorist attacks

The 2010-2011 season is a season full of crisis for Barcelona.
In the summer of 2009, Florentino entered the palace second, took charge of Bernabéu, and robbed Yang Yang and Ibrahimovic of two great stars from Barcelona, ​​plus Kaka, Robben, Sneijder, Xavi Alonso and Mascherano and other strong aid stars, Real Madrid's strength is leaping forward.
In the ensuing season, the Galaxy battleship double-killed Barcelona and won two heavy championships in La Liga and the Champions League in one breath, becoming the double crown. This is a very painful blow for Barcelona.
Real Madrid and Barcelona have always been a couple in La Liga.
The Galaxy warships had their heads out, and Barcelona was naturally going to suffer. President Laporta's re-election campaign came back in a disastrous defeat. After Russell took office, he thoroughly checked the club's finances and corruption.
Throughout the summer of 2010, in addition to La Porta signed during his tenure, Barcelona did not sign a star.
Not only did Fabregas not come, but also the striker Guardiola wanted.
As a result, Guardiola was forced to dig internally, Pedro began to become a partner of Messi and Villa, forming a trident, at the same time, Guardiola is also actively developing the offensive ability of players in the midfield and backcourt.
In the third year of coaching, Guardiola began to play the football he wanted in Barcelona, ​​especially after Yaya Touré was sent away in a pity, Barcelona's comprehensive strategy of passing the ball has been very good. obvious.
Throughout the season, Barcelona's pass and ball control system has reached its historical peak. Almost every game can steadily occupy more than 60% of the ball control rate, which puts great pressure on the opponent and also makes Barcelona stable in the league. .
So far, the league has played 28 rounds, and Barcelona have only lost one.
It is regrettable that it was precisely the one that lost the most.
From the summer to the league, Barcelona are full of a sense of crisis, on the one hand, it is unfavorable to recruit, on the other hand, it is facing Real Madrid like a wolf, and the European strong teams are trying their best to restrain Barcelona. Passing and controlling the ball, which makes everyone on the team proud and proud, but also worried.
Especially after losing to Real Madrid in the first national derby.
Fortunately, Yang Yang was injured for more than two months, causing problems for Real Madrid's offense, which in turn allowed Barcelona to gain enough lead. Even they once thought that the team was already winning.
Unexpectedly, after the winter break, Real Madrid actually kicked out of a nearly crazy state, especially after entering February, the Galaxy battleship hit a goal frenzy that even Barcelona shuddered.
However, Barcelona itself has a crisis.
In the 23rd round of La Liga, Barcelona drew 1-0 against Sporting Gijon, but this was only the beginning.
Three days later, at the Emirates Stadium in London, Barcelona lost one to two to the Gunners Arsenal.
Wenger's team killed Barcelona with 30% of the ball. Although the details are different, but they are invariable, the tactics used by Arsenal are exactly the same as those of Real Madrid and Inter Milan. accident.
For a time, everyone in European football began to realize that it was time for Barcelona to go down the altar.
The UEFA Champions League round of 16 has the second round of matches, but after returning to La Liga, Barcelona's performance is still not much improved, especially in the 28th round, even once again encountered a one-to-one draw on the road.
This time the opponent became Seville.
Almost the same version, the same way, but the opponent has changed.
From a ten-point lead at most times, to a five-point lead now, Barcelona are constantly pressing Real Madrid, constantly losing their leading edge and being pushed into desperation step by step.
Lest media reporters in the world start to hype the Barcelona crisis. There are even a lot of media speculations. Barcelona is coming to an end this season. The Champions League is difficult to overturn. The league is likely to be reversed by Real Madrid. Even the Kings Cup final may be lost to the opponent.
For a time, Nou Camp's sky seemed to collapse.
...
As the team's number one superstar, Messi has withstood great pressure.
His performance is not bad, so far he has scored 29 goals in the 28th round of the league, he scored six goals in seven games in the Champions League, he scored in the King ’s Cup Scored seven goals.
In other words, in the past few months, he alone has contributed 42 goals to Barcelona, ​​which is good enough.
But recently, Messi's pressure is also very large.
Because he was reversed by Yang Yang.
From nearly 20 goals ahead, and now behind Yang Yang by six goals, Messi feels very speechless and depressed. He simply cannot understand what kind of opponent is standing in front of him, why he can do such a thing. ?
Over the years, Messi has always regarded Yang Yang as a lifelong enemy. He regards Yang Yang as his goal and has always wanted to surpass his opponent. This season is the best opportunity he has in mind.
Although, this seems somewhat invincible.
But now, Messi has suddenly found that even if he took advantage of the fire and won the victory, Yang Yang still quickly chased it back and even reversed himself at a disadvantage. This made him more admirable to Yang Yang. Make him more depressed.
Does he really have no way to defeat Yang Yang?
Do not! Never possible! There must be a way! There must be a chance! !
Messi is no longer the boy who was born in the early years. He is becoming more mature and more tenacious, especially after experiencing the frustration of last season, he is ushering in his career. Golden years.
He is convinced that he is the strongest!
The league scored 35 to 29, and Yang Yang led six goals.
Judging from the current situation, Messi wants to reverse, he has to come up with a better and better state.
In the King's Cup, both of them scored seven goals, the key depends on the performance of the final game.
The most important and most striking is the Champions League.
Messi currently leads the Champions League with six goals. Yang Yang has only scored one goal so far because he missed the entire group stage and only played one knockout game.
The Champions League is the most promising to win!
The premise is that Barcelona must continue to move forward and keep going.
And if you want to continue to move forward, you must reverse Arsenal!
Messi must come up with better and better, but also more terrifying state!

Camp Nou on March 15.
In the second round of the UEFA Champions League elimination round, Barcelona face Arsenal.
In the first round, the Gunners had a 34% possession rate, but limited Barcelona's shots to single digits, and finally defeated Barcelona 2-1 at home, which made Wenger hope. It also brings confidence to the players.
In the second round of the game, Wenger learned the experience of the first round, and once again discharged the four two three one tactics.
There are two important players missing from Arsenal, one is Walcott, who is very fast, and the other is Alexander Song, a defensive center in the midfield and backcourt. For the important role, the loss of the lineup is not a small loss to the Gunners, but Barcelona has the same problem.
Captain Puyol missed due to injury, Pique suspended, last season Guardiola also had a Yaya Touré, but now, he can only make Busquets retreat to the central defender, with Abidal Partners, temporarily pieced together into a halfback combination.
The midfield is a combination of Ceduca Keita, Xavi and Iniesta.
Wenger had already prepared for this. His team did not play conservatively. After the opening, he continued to press the whole line and the back line also pushed forward. The purpose was to ensure that there was no gap between the lines.
As in the first round, Arsenal ’s formation is well maintained, the connection is very close, and the oppression of Barcelona is also very effective. Basically, it can form a steal in the front field, or form a disturbance and delay to the opponent in time to fight for the middle and back field When there is enough time, a tight formation is organized.
In Barcelona, ​​everything is almost the same as usual, but it may be that today there is less Busquets in the midfield, and the gunner ’s oppression is very strong, and the ball is not smooth, so Messi retreated very deep, even watching It looks more like a midfielder.
In front Villa and Pedro were forced to push forward.
This is what Wenger wants.
A Messi trapped in Arsenal's midfield is hard to create a threat.
When watching the game situation develop in the direction he expected, Wenger was more confident on the sidelines, especially when the first half of the game entered stoppage time and the score was still zero to zero. Grid was more relieved.
"Our defense was very successful. We built an indestructible fortress in front of the goal. Even in the event of a terrorist attack, we don't have to worry about it." Wenger joked with assistant coach Pat Rice.
At this time, the first half was already the third minute of stoppage time.
Pat Rice also agrees with this point. He has even begun to prepare for halftime, to say something to encourage the arsenal of the arsenal in the first half.
If the team can eliminate Barcelona to advance, it will be a huge encouragement to Arsenal.
But at this time, the scene suddenly changed dramatically.
Fabregas' pass error was interrupted, Messi led the ball to counterattack, caught in Arsenal's heavy siege, there were four players around him, but the Argentine star suddenly passed the ball to Iraq Nesta, sprinted forward quickly.
Iniesta knew what was happening and rubbed it without stopping the ball and picked it up in front of Messi.
The Argentine superstar rushed to the forefront of the penalty area, facing Iniesta's pick pass, facing the attacking Arsenal goalkeeper Szczesny, Messi's left foot lightly picked.
The ball gently crossed the top of Shichensny's head and fell into the goal behind him.
At this moment, the game time just jumped into the fifth minute of stoppage time.
In an instant, the entire Camp Nou Stadium was completely crazy!
The grandstand became a sea of ​​oceans, and everyone cried out in horror, as if they had suffered a terrorist attack.
Messi rushed to the side of the court, pointing at Iniesta who assisted him.
At this moment, he once again transformed into the world's top star with confidence.
Messi!
