Chapter 0089, the essence of Barcelona's control(1/2)

October 10, Malaga Youth Football Stadium.

The ninth round of the Spanish Youth League has arrived as scheduled.

Barcelona Youth Army challenged Malaga Youth Army away.

This opponent is in the middle of the league rankings and is not considered strong.

Including the two previous opponents, they are also at a mid-range level.

But this is what embarrasses Barcelona.

They have lost two games in a row...

In the past two league games, they both lost 1-2.

All face is lost.

When facing Malaga in this game, Migueli naturally did not allow any more accidents.

In the locker room before the game, Migli put away his usual gentleness and looked very serious.

"Boys, although I don't want to say it, I still want to remind you again - we have lost two games in a row!

"Two teams that are definitely not as good as ours, but they beat us.

"I don't know what you think, but I feel very unhappy anyway.

“Today we face another weak opponent, Malaga.

"Although it is an away game, we have only one goal - to win!

"For us, failure is not terrible. What is terrible is losing without reason and without any rules!

"We encountered trouble in the previous two games. It can be said that it was because of the lack of pure central defenders and the abnormal attrition of the team that affected the state.

“But this third time, we have enough personnel and strong troops!

“If I can’t win again, I really don’t know how to explain it.

"You know, two weeks ago, I just recommended you to the first team!

"If you had been more stable and performed at a normal level in the past two games, maybe you would be at Camp Nou now!

"Sorry?

“If you feel regretful, let’s start from this game and regain our proper form!

"Again, we must win today's game!"

Seeing Migli's firm eyes, the young people waved their fists and shouted in the locker room.

"We must win! We must win!"

Maybe it's because of Migli's request, maybe it's because of the players' inner desire to win.

All in all, it was a good game.

At least until now, Barcelona still dominates the rhythm of the game.

Today, because Verwijk entered the starting lineup, the team's lineup has been slightly adjusted.

4-3-3 formation.

Goalkeeper Masip.

Left back Roberto, Verwijk and Bartra are paired with two high school defenders, and right back Montoya.

In the midfield, Thiago is still the absolute core of the midfield, with the No. 10 player, Rafinha and Cuenca partnering in tandem.

On the forward line, Deulofeu and Tello were on the left and right, attacking from the wing, with No. 9 Icardi in the center.

Less than ten minutes into the game, Thiago made a sudden forward move and hit the crossbar with a long-range shot.

The Málaga players on the field broke into a cold sweat.

Three minutes later, it was Thiago's precise long pass. Tello from the left side of the penalty area received the ball and broke through, and shot from a small angle and almost scored.

Although they failed to score twice after attacking the goal twice in a row, Barcelona's morale was overwhelming!

Migli on the sidelines was very satisfied with his disciple's performance today: "If we play like this so early, will we still lose in a row?"

The assistant coach also smiled: "If these boys exert all their abilities, they may not be able to avoid relegation even if they go to La Liga."

"That's too much," Migueli glanced at him, "Even if they have talent, they are far from La Liga. Let alone La Liga, even if they go to the B team to play in the Spanish C League, there will be no advantage...

No, the disadvantage should be obvious."

"Migli, you underestimate them a little too much..."

"It's not that I underestimate them, but they are too inexperienced. It was the same in the previous two games. They performed well, but they get impatient when they encounter trouble. How can you play in the top league with such a mentality?"

"That's right. The previous two games were dominated by situations that were overturned."

"And once they encounter the opponent's defense, these boys will become anxious, their movements will change, and the more they play, the worse they will get. Even the West Division players, they can't compare."

"Yes, those are real professional players. How can these young people compare? But given time, they will definitely be able to get opportunities in our first team and win applause at Camp Nou!"

The assistant coach is full of confidence in this group of young men. Looking at their performance today, Migli also had a smile on his face.

I played really well today.

Under continuous suppressive attacks, Barcelona finally gained something.

In the 36th minute of the game, Thiago and Raphinha cooperated.

A pair of brothers played 2-for-1 in a tacit understanding, and Cuenca's pull in front created an opportunity!

Thiago has a shooting angle!

Two defensive players from the opponent attack!

Thiago's ankle flicked, but he didn't shoot!

The ball slants into the penalty area!

Icardi suddenly accelerates!

Get the first shot before the Malaga central defender takes the shot!

The ball went in!

1 to 0!

Barcelona opens the scoring! Breaks the deadlock!

The cooperation this time was wonderful!

Especially the previous continuous delivery!

Two brothers beat one!

After Cuenca responded, he turned around and ran forward, straining the defense!

Tello and Deulofeu on both sides ran diagonally and took away the full-back!

Thiago's unexpected pass!

Icardi's smart movement and accurate shooting!

This series of cooperation brought out the essence of Barcelona's passing and control!

The players on the field hugged and celebrated, excited.

Chang Ming on the sidelines was also very happy!

Even if you are not on the court, as long as you see the brothers wearing Barcelona jerseys scoring goals, you will be happy!

Next to Chang Ming, the Barcelona coaching staff also applauded again and again!

This goal is wonderful!

Migli was completely at ease.

If we play at this pace, winning will not be a problem at all.

After the goal, Barcelona's frontcourt became more active.

Especially the midfielders and frontcourt players continuously pass and control movements and frequently create murderous opportunities.

In the injury time of the first half, Rafinha also received a ball from his brother and volleyed from the edge of the penalty area.

Unfortunately, the ball missed the goal post.

Shooting is really not his specialty...

The referee's whistle sounded and the first half of the game was over.

At halftime, the Barcelona players in the locker room were in high spirits and everyone was looking forward to the second half.

Washing away the decline with a victory is what all the young people of La Masia have been looking forward to for a long time.

However, as soon as the second half started, Barcelona players noticed something was wrong.

Malaga actually changed their formation?
