Chapter 34 The fuse of victory!
Chapter 34 The Fuse of Victory!
Barcelona scored a goal, but Atletico Madrid was anxious. They almost controlled the game in the first half, but in the second half, they lost the goal first, which really made them very depressed.
"Guys! Go back to defend! Go back to defend!"
Before Simon Grayson could make tactical instructions, the deputy captain Fabregas on the field had already begun to remind his teammates. This made the "brutal Simon" smile and nodded with satisfaction. At the same time, he felt a sense of satisfaction. His arrangements were indeed perfect!
At the beginning of the season, Shaq was forcibly helped as captain. It can be said that high-altitude buildings have no foundation, but fortunately, this kid was able to lead the team to win with goals one by one, and over time, this prestige was cultivated.
But as Shaq's mentor, Simon Grayson really knows his favorite player very well. This kid is fierce, but his brain is obviously not very useful. Compared with think tank midfielders such as Fabregas and Gansuo, he is more rude when playing football than using his brain.
So Simon Grayson entrusted Fabregas with the position of deputy captain, just like the famous Chinese book "Three Kingdoms" he had read. The masters of the family are not very good at it, but everyone has a thought tank to assist.
Now it looks...it's good!
Shaq is responsible for leading the team to charge, and Fabregas is responsible for directing the team's dispatch. This combination...is perfect!
In Barcelona, Shaq is indeed the well-deserved flagship. But Fabregas has a high status, and the players also listen to his words. Moreover, which of these experienced "veterans" don't know that after scoring the goal, they will face a counterattack from their opponents!?
After celebrating the goal, Barcelona ushered in a crazy counterattack from Atletico Madrid. Unfortunately... Barcelona has only conceded 5 goals in the league this season. Their defense system has been formed with the careful construction of Simon Grayson. With the support of the midfield, Atletico Madrid's counterattack was completely unable to play a role. Instead, Barcelona's two counterattacks were quite threatening. Vasquis' two quick sneak attacks almost succeeded, and easily suppressed Atletico Madrid's counterattack momentum.
The next game seemed calm. After leading Barcelona, they always controlled as much as possible to spend the game time. Atletico Madrid... they couldn't get up at all!
Atletico Madrid, which has long been familiar with Guardiola's control of playing style, can easily make mistakes as long as the speed is fast. They can only send the ball to the frontcourt by slowly controlling and then looking for opportunities, but the slow pace is exactly the case in this situation.
"Beep————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
Three long whistles sounded, the game finally ended, Calderon Stadium was completely quiet, and Atletico Madrid fans all had sad eyes. They knew too well what it meant for their team to lose this game.
Barcelona has now scored 67 points in the La Liga standings with 22 wins and 1 draw. Before, Real Madrid drew Levante 1-1 away, which has led to Barcelona's advantage in leading the standings being as high as 9 points, which is already a huge advantage.
As for Atletico Madrid... because they lost the key game in this game, they currently have only 18 wins, 2 draws, 3 losses and 56 points. The gap behind Barcelona has been widened to 11 points, and there is almost no hope of competing for the championship. It is not enough to win the double-killed by Barcelona in two rounds, but they can't even break through the opponent's goal. The team spent a lot of money to buy Messi. What's the use of Neymar!?
That night, the whole of Madrid was in depressed. Atletico Madrid lost the game, but Real Madrid side was also angry that it was not fighting. Atletico Madrid lost to Barcelona at home, which directly led to the failure of Madrid's two-man sniping Barcelona's plan. This season's La Liga championship has already belonged to Barcelona by 99:99%. Real Madrid's home match with Barcelona will have to wait until the 33rd round of the league. At that time... I'm afraid the overall situation has been decided!
At the post-match press conference, Guardiola highly praised Barcelona and Shaq: "Barcelona's tactical style is more efficient than us. We failed to score first in the first half today. This is our own mistake, otherwise the result of the game may be different. However, Shaq seized the best opportunity in their 90 minutes and directly scored the winning goal with a free kick. This is Shaq's comprehensive personal ability perfect performance. We have tried our best to limit his performance, but the result is not ideal... Well, we have now withdrawn from the championship. Next, our goal is to qualify for the Champions League next season."
Guardiola was so sour about it, but Simon Grayson was praising Shaq as the team's winning fuse. He was so happy today. His team was at a disadvantage on the court, but he could still win the game with difficulty. This is enough to prove how powerful the team's current combat power is.
Indeed, it is really not easy for Barcelona to win this game!
In the statistics of both sides, the number of shots is 10:7, the number of shots is 5:5, the final possession rate is 54:46, and the passing success rate is 78%:75%. Except for the number of free kicks, it is 9:18, Barcelona has no advantage in all statistics, but the result of the game... Barcelona still won!
As the team's coach, naturally no one understands better what it means to win a direct dialogue with his competitors than him. After winning this game with Atletico Madrid, Barcelona's future for winning the championship has become very smooth, not to mention that it doesn't matter if they encounter tough tough bones... And Shaq!
Simon Grayson's trust in Shaq is absolutely blind. Leeds United, Manchester United, England, Simon Grayson's trust in Shaq has all received huge returns, and now he is here at Barcelona.
After playing the key battle with Atletico Madrid, Barcelona breathed a sigh of relief. As a result, in the next 24th round of La Liga, Barcelona, who played at home, was scored by the away team Valencia in the first 8 minutes.
Although Barcelona did not send all the main players, they still launched a counterattack under the leadership of Shaq. First, Shaq headed the ball in 20 minutes to equalize the score, then Rivero used a corner kick opportunity to head the ball over the score in 32 minutes. In the second half, Shaq scored two goals in 71 minutes and 77 minutes respectively, and Barcelona finally defeated Valencia 4:1.
Although the score difference between the second-place Real Madrid is still 9 points, Barcelona's winning situation is already bright, and they can finally put their attention back to the Champions League.
Barcelona, who qualified as the first in the Group F group in the UEFA Champions League group stage, drew a good draw in the first round of the knockout round, and they met with Ligue 1 team Lyon.
The level of the Ligue 1 has improved a lot in recent years. Stimulated by the gold and dollar policies of Paris Saint-Germain and Monaco, the overall league has improved a lot, but Lyon is not a Galaxy battleship. The number and quality of the stars in this team cannot match Paris Saint-Germain and Monaco. The fate of their encounter with Barcelona has long been doomed.
This is true. Faced with Barcelona's attack, Lyon's fragile defense completely collapsed in the first half, and was beaten by Shaq alone, even though they were fighting at home.
Shaq completed a hat-trick in 9 minutes, 27 minutes and 42 minutes in the first half. He also got another hat in 56 minutes, 61 minutes and 85 minutes. Rinaldi, who replaced Vasquis to play the left winger, added icing on the cake in 89 minutes and finally locked the score at...7:0!
After scoring 6 goals, Shaq's Champions League goal count soared to 18 this season, 10 more than Aguero, who ranked second. He has almost become a settlement for the sixth consecutive Champions League top scorer this season.
Previously, Shaq scored 16 Champions League goals in his last year of playing for Leeds United, and then scored 33 goals, 28 goals, 18 goals and 22 goals for four years. He has been the top scorer in the Champions League for five consecutive years, and has also maintained a total goal record, a single season goal record, and a single game goal record.
It can be said that the entire European football world has been under the rule of Shaq in recent years. Although he does not win the Champions League trophy every year, and the Champions League trophy last season fell into the hands of Leeds United, Shaq's era of dominating the European football world is obviously far from over. This season, he has scored an astonishing 115 goals in 39 games for Barcelona, with an average goal efficiency of 2.94 goals. Considering Shaq's age at 26, it is obvious that he can do better.
After defeating Lyon in the first leg 7-0 away game, Barcelona fans were ecstatic. They predicted early in the morning that the team would definitely not be blocked by a team like Lyon. However, being able to kill the suspense after the first leg away game, the team's performance still surprised all Catalans, especially Shaq's hot goal frenzy without any stop. What kind of performance will such a Barcelona with Shaq have to perform is indeed worth looking forward to!
Maybe... the days to recreate the glory of the "Six Crown Kings" are not far away!?
Guardiola led the team to achieve the miracle of "Six Championships" and was once considered unreplicable. But now looking at the Barcelona team under the rule of "brutal Simon", they obviously have absolute strength. Although it is impossible for them to surpass the "Six Championships" in terms of the number of championships, their record is obviously better.
Chapter completed!
