Chapter 349: There are defenses and offenses

At two o'clock in the morning, countless Chinese fans got up in the middle of the night, prepared beer, fried chicken, peanuts, turned on the TV to watch this La Liga.

Moreover, many bars are now being booked by many fan groups, including Xu Qi's personal fans, Valencia's fans, and Barcelona's loyal fans.

Of course, many Xu Qi and Valencia fans have also mixed up with fans from other camps such as Real Madrid fans.

After all, although Valencia and Barcelona are equally divided in the standings, they still think that Barcelona is their biggest opponent on the road to winning the championship. They naturally hope that Barcelona will not score a single point.

At the Camp Nou Stadium, the number of fans on site is estimated to exceed 80,000.

This is the attendance rate of Barcelona. Playing football in such a stadium, especially playing away games, may have to bear a considerable psychological burden.

Finally, the referee officially blew the whistle to the start of the game!

At the beginning of the game, Barcelona took the lead in kicking off. As Villa pushed the ball to Messi, Messi passed the ball back to Xavi, and the game officially began.

Valencia is indeed a lineup of five defenders. They retreated deeply. At the beginning, not conceding the ball was Valencia's goal.

As long as the goal is not concealed too early, Valencia will definitely get an opportunity in the counterattack.

Although he contracted his defense, Valencia's pressing was very tight in the midfield, and Barcelona even struggled to pass multiple kicks in a row at the beginning.

Even Barcelona is afraid of pressing, and Barcelona often experiences slow heat during games.

From the beginning, Barcelona's feeling seems to be not getting hot yet.

"Barcelona seems to be a little uncomfortable with Valencia's pressing. It seems that Emery has found some ways to deal with Barcelona." He Wei analyzed based on the situation on the scene.

It seems to be to prove He Wei's words that Barcelona's Pique made a mistake in crossing the backcourt. He and Marcosville did not form a tacit understanding. Although Marxville tried hard to finish the ball, Xu Qi still snatched it away.

"Xu Qi, Xu Qi got the opportunity at the beginning! See what Xu Qi will do!"

At this time, Xu Qi intercepted the ball and attacked the penalty area directly into the penalty area.

Facing Marxwell who was chasing him back, Xu Qi dunked him with a light button.

Afterwards, Pique also followed in. Xu Qi faced the two of his opponents with double-teams, and had no teammates to help him, so he could only take the left foot and forcefully shot.

However, the ball was obviously a bit hasty, so it was blocked by Pique.

The pit that Pike dug for himself was still the one who made the pot himself.

After blocking the ball, he immediately followed up and cleared the ball. Only then did Pique wipe his sweat and breathe a sigh of relief.

But Xu Qi gritted his teeth and felt regretful.

After this clearance, Valencia actually gained possession and made several consecutive passes to get rid of Barcelona's press.

This also caused Barcelona's defense pressure to suddenly increase.

Although Valencia has played five defenders, they are not conservative at all. Jodi Alba, who is from Lamacia, is a key link in which he can transform from five defenders to four defenders. When the team needs to attack, his position will immediately assist the team in controlling the ball or attack.

With Barcelona blood, he also seems very calm in the face of pressing and can transfer the ball through a quick pass.

Emery also relies heavily on his performance in this game, which can be regarded as a way to crack Barcelona's ideas.

But this is just part of the idea when the team is in possession of the ball.

When the ball was transferred to the frontcourt and Banerga wanted to pass the ball to Xu Qi, the ball was directly intercepted by Busquets.

Obviously, Barcelona does not allow Valencia players to occupy football for too long.

Football is their baby, they want to keep the football under their feet, and Valencia, don't even want to touch their ball!

"What a group of guys who don't know how to share. Do you need everyone to play football together? You always dominate the ball and let us run with you, but it's not fun at all!"

Xu Qi complained and pressed forward, but when he wanted to steal Harvey, Harvey turned around and let him behind him.

"It's really hard to grab!"

Then, Xavi transferred the ball to Busquets, and then several Barcelona midfielders began to fall backwards again. It was not until Valencia's players stopped pressing, and they began to think about the way to attack.

At this time, Valencia also retreated and began to wait for Barcelona's offensive routines, and it was easy to deal with it.

The ball was indeed handed over to Messi. Messi looked at it and seemed that there was no good opportunity to make a breakthrough, so he passed the ball back to Xavi.

At this moment, when many people focused on Messi, Alves on the right side of Barcelona started.

At this time, Xu Qi had already anticipated everything that would happen next!

"Defend him! That Alves!" Xu Qi shouted to his teammates.

That location belongs to Alba and Mathieu's defense zone.

However, they still ignored the power of the opponent's magic wing. Alves chose to run and Xavi's passing. This mid-long pass directly jumped over the heads of two Valencia defenders and flew to Alves, who had already successfully counter-offside.

Then, Alves glanced at the penalty area, and both Villa and Messi had arrived.

Villa hit the goal, while Messi detoured to the front of the penalty spot.

"Messi's point!" Xu Qi also guessed at this time that Alves would definitely look for Messi's point, and Villa's point was just a cover.

At this time, Alves was taking a kick, and Navarro had already rushed towards Messi.

But at this time, Alba had already chased back. While Alves made a cross, Alba had already broken the ball out of the baseline.

Valencia avoided a corner kick.

This time, Barcelona's offensive routine reminded Valencia again to not always hit Messi. Of course, Messi must not be defensive, but they have other routines to tear your defense.

Although they played five defenders this time, they were still punched through by Xavi's pass. If Alba hadn't chased back in time, he might have lost the ball.

The corner kick was taken, and Puyol and Pique both stepped forward to compete for the header, but they were still taken by goalkeeper Cesar.

Afterwards, Valencia began to counterattack, and Xu Qi got the ball again between three passes and two passes.

Facing Marxwell, Xu Qi changed the line and wanted to pass it. However, when Pique and Puyol stepped forward to compete for the header, how could Marxwell, who was the last line of defense of the team, easily let Xu Qi pass.

As expected, he took a tactical foul and directly pulled Xu Qi's shoulder with his hand, and put Xu Qi to the ground.

A yellow card is inevitable.
