The ball went in, two to zero!
Crystal Palace led Barcelona by two goals, and the fans at the scene were dumbfounded.
People in Barcelona couldn't believe it.
They had never been so embarrassed when they played against Juventus in the Champions League final last year. Today they played so poorly against Crystal Palace? Is this fake?
The commentators were all shocked.
They didn't expect that the game would progress like this.
This is not only two goals scored by Crystal Palace, this is also a complete suppression of Barcelona.
Rare, so rare.
If this game continues like this, it is no longer a matter of whether Barcelona will lose, but how much it will lose!
Will Barcelona be massacred?
hiss!
This is scary just thinking about it.
The camera at the scene was focused on Barcelona's head coach Enrique. Enrique looked serious. What was he thinking?
The camera immediately turned to the other side and focused on Tong Yi.
Unexpectedly, Tong Yi stared at Enrique!
This picture is interesting.
The fans in front of the TV could see it clearly. They were all guessing what the two men were thinking at this time.
This is destined to become a famous scene, and many people will still clearly remember it many years later.
To be honest, even when trailing 2-0, Enrique and the Barcelona players did not panic.
Even if it's zero to three, they can't be defeated.
They still have great confidence in themselves, otherwise how could they be called Team Cosmos?
Enrique's reaction was still very quick, and he immediately came to the sidelines to signal to the Barcelona players to calm down and not to worry. Just follow their usual playing style. They can win this game.
Then he called Messi, Iniesta and Rakitic to his side and I don’t know what he said?
Are these three people nodding their heads frequently to show that they understand?
What is this for?
To strengthen Messi's ball-handling offense, let Iniesta and Rakitic take turns helping Mathieu in defense?
If you think about it carefully, this is really possible.
Tong Yi stared at Enrique closely, as if he wanted to see through Enrique's mind!
He immediately turned around and pointed at Messi towards his defensive player Robertson, asking him to follow Messi closely during this period and not give this guy too many opportunities.
In this game, the reason Robertson didn't have many assists was because he had to keep an eye on Messi.
Robertson sticks to Messi like a piece of candy. Wherever Messi goes, Robertson will go! Unless Messi and Rafinha switch sides.
Robertson spent all his energy on defense.
Crystal Palace is still pressing with high risk and intensity, but Barcelona is really good here. The midfielder passes the ball much faster than other teams.
, and it was also very accurate. The tacit understanding between them was vividly displayed. At this moment, Iniesta suddenly passed the football diagonally to the feet of Messi who was advancing.
Robertson immediately hit him from behind, preventing Messi from turning around!
Unexpectedly, Messi had already expected it. Before Robertson could get close to him, he moved the football behind him with his left foot. Then he quickly spun around and bypassed Robertson. Then, he suddenly
Accelerate and chase the football...Bang!
Messi's body instantly lost balance and fell onto the court.
beep!
The referee immediately blew the whistle, indicating that Robertson had committed a foul, but he did not show a yellow card or even a verbal warning. After all, Robertson only committed a foul, and Messi did not do it alone. This is not a tactic.
It's a sexual foul, so it doesn't qualify for a yellow card at all.
However, this really ruined the Barcelona attack.
Yes, this is also what Tong Yi requested.
After the high pressure in the frontcourt failed, he fouled immediately and immediately, without giving the Barcelona people a chance to attack.
This is the second reason why Barcelona played awkwardly in this game.
Crystal Palace seems to want to minimize the risk factor. Once the high pressure in the frontcourt fails and there is a slight sign of danger behind, they will directly foul and intercept the opponent's attack.
Moreover, it is okay to give the opponent a direct free kick from this position. After all, it is still more than thirty meters away from the goal. Although it is barely within shooting range, the threat factor is indeed very low.
Moreover, Tong Yi and the others also have full confidence in Alisson.
Therefore, it is okay to give a direct free kick.
This made the Barcelona people feel very sick. The speed of Crystal Palace was really stuck in their most uncomfortable position, which made them play very unhappy. Even the emotions of the Barcelona players were a little irritated and provoked.
, the Barcelona players were very unhappy and put pressure on the referee from time to time.
When did Barcelona suffer such injustice? Think back to when their godfather was here...
It's a pity that Platini can't save himself now.
Not long ago, Platini was very proud and announced in a high profile that he would participate in the FIFA main event.
What about the election for seats?
How long has it been since?
In less than a month, Platini was involved in the scandal of fake gambling and was criticized by many people. Now it seems to be a bit of a backlash. It is said that FIFA has some restrictions on Platini.
The meaning of Tiny's suspension and grounding.
Therefore, at this sensitive time, some referees did not dare to favor Barcelona, and even the penalties against Barcelona were a bit harsh. After all, it was rumored that Platini was Mo Ren's godfather, which made Barcelona benefit a lot.
Although these are rumors and have not been confirmed
of.
However, some referees are wise to protect themselves and want to draw a clear line from certain things.
Therefore, it makes sense that the referee in this game was a little biased towards Crystal Palace.
Of course, this is not actually partiality, but just a loosening of the penalty scale. This is not just for Crystal Palace, but in fact the scale is the same for Barcelona. For fouls involving the same action, the referee gave the penalty to both sides.
The same punishment is given, no favoritism is given.
It's just that Crystal Palace's tactics are more aggressive, they seem to relax a little more, and they commit more fouls.
Therefore, many fans feel that Crystal Palace plays dirty football, that the players of Crystal Palace are playing dirty tricks, and that the referee is favoring Crystal Palace. Isn't this a card?
In fact, Barcelona people also commit a lot of fouls, but they are just less frequent.
Therefore, many people seem to think that Barcelona's defense is very clean, and they will not commit violent fouls unless absolutely necessary, or even foul at all!
Shit!
The referee's penalty scale is the same, but the scale is slightly looser.
The Barcelona players still surrounded the referee, trying to put pressure on the referee to show Robertson a yellow card.
Unfortunately, the referee did not say anything and just signaled the Barcelona people to take a free kick quickly.
There was no way, the Barcelona people had no choice but to retreat, and then Messi took a direct free kick and shot a long-range shot. To be honest, the threat was not great. The football was directly held in Alisson's arms, and the danger was relieved.
Shhhhhhh!
The Barcelona fans at the scene were very dissatisfied and felt that the referee was a black whistle and was favoring Crystal Palace.
Suddenly, all the Crystal Palace fans were dumbfounded!
Is this considered a black whistle? Then what was the penalty we encountered in the last game at the end of last season? Isn’t that a black whistle?
The fans of Crystal Palace were a little speechless, they all felt that Barcelona could not afford to lose!
At this moment, the Barcelona attack came again.
Midfielders Iniesta and Rakitic passed the ball three times in a row like lightning in a small area, directly breaking the fierce high-pressure press of the Crystal Palace people. Then Rakitic directly passed the ball diagonally and quickly sent the football
At the feet of Messi.
Everyone in the Crystal Palace was shocked.
The Barcelona people's pass was too fast and accurate. Under such high pressure, they almost didn't need to think about passing the ball and passed it out at lightning speed.
It’s really awesome!
Tong Yi was also very amazed. I have to say that Barcelona is really amazing!
After the football came to Messi's feet, he forcibly held Robertson, then quickly pulled the ball and turned to face Robertson head-on.
Although Messi is short and thin, he is really not afraid of physical confrontation, and he may not be weak in physical confrontation.
He will lose. This guy's power-generating skills are really great, at least it allows him to kick with ease.
In this duel, Robertson was completely defeated.
Turning around, Messi's change of direction was so fast that Robertson didn't even react. When he reacted and rushed to defend, he realized that it was Messi's fake move, and Messi changed direction again. In an instant
Overtaking him, he dribbled the ball diagonally towards the left penalty area of Crystal Palace.
At this time, Suarez in front quickly made a diagonal contrast and headed directly towards the right half of the Crystal Palace penalty area.
Suarez's movement is very particular.
If the defensive players of Crystal Palace don't keep up with Suarez, Messi will pass the football to Suarez in the gap. If you keep up with Suarez, the defensive players will be brought by Suarez, and Messi will have space.
Although Crystal Palace seems to have more defensive players at this time, they must make a choice in an instant, otherwise problems will occur.
It is not good to have more people at this time, because it is difficult for them to make the same or the most reasonable choice in the flash of light.
However, Van Dijk and Rudiger were well prepared. At the moment when Suarez made a diagonal thrust, Van Dijk extended a gesture and followed Suarez closely. His gesture signaled Rudiger not to follow and to defend.
Just Messi.
Therefore, the division of labor between the two was clear, and the defense did not give the Barcelona people a chance at all.
However, Rafinha from the left came up diagonally!
Rudiger is under a lot of pressure!
At this moment, Messi made a fake move to pass the ball to Rafinha who was diagonally entering the penalty area, trying to yellow Rudiger. Rudiger did not fall for the trick, but followed closely.
Messi in front of me.
But at this moment, Messi suddenly shot a volley from the front of the penalty area. Rudiger was a little unable to react. The football quickly passed between his legs and flew towards the Crystal Palace.
The lower right corner of the goal.
The ball was very fast, and Alisson's sight in front of the goal was a little blocked by Rudiger. He waited for the ball to roll out before he could see it clearly. He immediately tried to save it, but still did not touch the ball. The ball quickly rolled into the goal.
Bottom right corner!
One to two, the powerful Barcelona pulled a goal back!
The Crystal Palace fans at the scene all took a breath. To be honest, there was no big problem with their Crystal Palace defense this time. Even Rudiger didn't commit a foul. How could he know the difference between Messi's fake move and his shot?
The connection would be so fast, not giving him much time to react.
He thought that Messi's fake move would be followed by a breakthrough smash or a sideways move, but he didn't know that he would be directly followed by a shooting move, and it would happen so quickly.
To be honest, this shot wasn't very powerful, but it was sudden.
Rudiger had no choice, and Alisson couldn't react in time!
Messi is really good, he plays the changes of rhythm clearly and superbly.
