Chapter 163 The opportunity to prove yourself!

The game entered the halftime break, and the atmosphere in the home team Barcelona's locker room was still tense. They only recovered one goal now. The score of 1:2 was unacceptable. Because of this, "Tata" did not even investigate the players' tactics. Instead, Fabregas replaced Busquets on the court, so as to further strengthen the team's midfield control.

In the visiting team's locker room, Simon Grayson smiled relaxedly: "Young guys, you played great in this game today. I said early in the morning that I have no requirements for this game. You can perform whatever you want, but you have proved your strength in the game. We have the opportunity to prove to the world that although Barcelona is very strong, we... are stronger!"

The players of Leeds United all laughed. It was wonderful to be able to lead Barcelona 2:1 away. Even though the game has not ended and Leeds United has not yet conquered the Camp Nou Stadium, the team's performance in the first half is enough to prove that the current "Youth Guards" are indeed capable of competing with the top European football giants.

With an extremely relaxed mentality, Leeds United entered the second half...

Seeing that Leeds United did not make any adjustments, Barcelona quickly launched a large-scale attack. However, Leeds United's team's ability to withstand pressure was really strong. Even though Barcelona attacked fiercely, they were never crushed. Instead, they kept looking for opportunities to counterattack and waited for an opportunity to give Barcelona a fatal blow.

Moreover, the "Young Guards" have many offensive weapons, Tevez's flexibility, Ameobi's ball protection, Jonny Hausen's breakthrough, Pivkowski's inward cut, and Ben Parker assisted, and Captain Leeds formed the left offensive system of the "Three Musketeers of Leeds". These are actually enough to play with Barcelona for a while, not to mention that Leeds United has a skill that looks like a nuclear weapon... "Shake goal"!

When the game ended 57 minutes, Leeds United's offensive system suddenly exerted force, Jonny Hausen's return pass drove Montoya away, and then Ben Parker sent the ball into Barcelona's left penalty area. The "Beast" Tevez attracted Barcelona's defensive attention.

But the ball was passed back by Tevez, and the direction of the pass was... on the left side of the top of the penalty area!

The ball arrives...the person arrives!

Shaq appeared on the pass route again, and his body had already posed for shooting!

"Bang!"

With a muffled sound, the ball flew towards Barcelona's goal again like a cannonball!

A player who can draw a zone on the court to shoot a long shot and the goal scored will be named after his own name is enough to prove Shaq's threat in this range, and can also illustrate the power of Shaq's long shot in this area!

"ah--"

Valdes roared. At the same time, his body fell to the right. His movements were almost at the limit of humanity. He absolutely did not want to experience the feeling of being beaten by the same opponent three times in a game.

So, Valdes' right fingertip finally hit the ball!

"Bang!"

The ball was rubbed and finally hit the post on the left side of Barcelona's goal, and then bounced to the other side with a "whisper"...

"Oh—————————————————————”

In the Camp Nou Stadium, Barcelona fans let out a low cry that they had survived the disaster. But as soon as the sound was made, they could not speak as if their throats were pinched.

because--

"Big Big Black" Ameobi appeared in front of the ball!

"Dong!"

Ameobi lowered his head and hit the ball with a header!

The ball flew into Barcelona's empty goal without any obstacles...3:1!

"goal!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Ameobi roared to the sky excitedly, like a chimpanzee!

Leeds United players and the bench were also full of joy. The team was not so safe when they were leading by one goal. After all, the opponent was Barcelona, ​​but now the advantage of leading was expanded to two goals. This game is much easier to play. Barcelona has to score two goals in the remaining 30 minutes to tie the score and score three goals in a row to win. This difficulty is not small.

The Barcelona players also turned dark. They originally planned to score goals and equalize the score after the start of the second half. It was not difficult for them to score two goals in half time, but now... they have to score three goals to win!

And even if they won the game 4:3 in the end, Barcelona lost 0:3 away in the first leg. Speaking of which, they still lost to Leeds United. If they lost to Bayern Munich, Manchester United, and even Real Madrid, that would be normal. But if they lost to Leeds United, which is not well-known in England, this feeling... is really depressing!

But the more you fear something, the more you come.

At 71 minutes of the game, Barcelona had not yet scored the second goal of the game. Instead, Leeds United's offense suddenly started from the right. Shaq ran outside the penalty area on the right to attract Barcelona's defense, and suddenly passed it straight and sent the ball to the feet of the "black big man" Ameobi.

Although Ameobi's forward is not as conspicuous as Tevez, others have only seen his tactical role, but in fact it was only Ameobi's previous one. After arriving at Leeds United, Ameobi scored 19 goals in 27 games for Leeds United in the first half of the season, and 32 goals for the team in 40 games last season. This season, he has scored 6 goals in 9 games. The 32-year-old Ameobi's goal rate is actually much higher than that of many forwards in their year of playing.

When Ameobi dribbled the ball into Barcelona's small penalty area, his long legs swung and knocked the ball out with a "bang"!

Valdes made the correct judgment when he saved the game, but unfortunately the distance is really... too close!

The ball... It flew into Barcelona's goal for the fourth time in this game!

4:1!

The Catalans looked at the electronic scoreboard in despair. They couldn't believe everything they saw. Barcelona was beaten 4:1 by Leeds United at home. This... This is a nightmare!

"Josep...Josep...Josep..."

I don’t know who started it. A voice suddenly broke out in the Camp Nou Stadium, and the fans called out Guardiola’s name loudly. At this time, they missed Guardiola more and more. Barcelona at that time... whoever they saw destroyed whom, how domineering the "Six-Crown King" was!

But see how Guardiola will be after leaving?

Biranova's performance in leading the team was average, but she had a terminal illness first. After "Tata" came this season, Barcelona's performance in the league was still a matter of time, putting his old rival Real Madrid under his command, but you have to perform more strongly in the Champions League. In just one group stage, you can actually be double-killed by Leeds United!?

How can you do this?

How dare you do such a thing!?

The voices of fans at Camp Nou made Gerardo Martino's face dark, but he really had no choice now. All he could do... was just to replace Villa with Pedro.

The team is three goals behind. Leeds United's performance is still steady. In this case... there is no way to make a comeback!

Leeds United, which was three goals ahead, is really sure to win. No one will believe that Barcelona has the chance to reverse the game again, and there are only twenty minutes left in the game.

then……

The "Young Guards" began to play on the field!

In this game, Leeds United has not played its traditional style of play, and the cooperation of constantly passing around Shaq was basically not played. Barcelona's counter-attack ability is quite amazing. Especially these people first predicted the opponent's passing route and then tacitly counter-attack.

But now, Leeds United has the capital to play. The advantage of three balls is enough. Just watch Barcelona play the ball control there, and it's our turn this time!

"Ba...b...ba...b...b...b..."

The ball was constantly passed at the feet of Leeds United players, and Shaq's running range began to expand, and the smooth passing and running also made Barcelona feel a headache. At this time, they had to admit that Leeds United's tactical play is indeed very pleasing, and from time to time they will create opportunities through the players' personal performance.

The situation on the court changed. Barcelona, ​​who had previously been attacking, became the defensive counterattacking side. In the 82 minutes, Pedro, who came on the bench, received a pass from Sanchez on the right in the counterattack. He pushed the ball into the goal of Leeds United.

Unfortunately, the situation of the game has already determined the outcome of the game, and Pedro's goal only made one more goal in this game.

In the end, Barcelona lost to Leeds United with a score of 2:4 at home.

After the game, Shaq, who scored 2 goals and assisted twice in this game, became the well-deserved player of the game. In addition to goals and assists, Shaq also completed 43 passes, 7 steals, 3 headers, 5 interceptions, and 2 blocking shots.

Even Tata said at the post-match press conference: "In this game, we lost to Shaq rather than losing to Leeds United. This English midfielder is really great. He is another real genius I met after Leonel, Cristiano! And he is still so young, I believe Shaq's future will definitely be as brilliant as Leonel, Cristiano and others."

The opponents have already praised their disciples, and Simon Grayson will not talk about Shaq: "We have gained a lot through the two group matches against Barcelona, ​​not just two important wins. The confidence gained by the team and the experience of playing against the world's top teams are the greatest wealth we have gained."

A reporter asked Simon Grayson, in his opinion, whether Messi is stronger or Shaq is stronger.
