Chapter 155: The house leaks every time it rains
Iniesta completely believed that Rongguang was not joking with him, because he was very serious when talking. Since he was a brainless fan of Rongguang, he should know his idol very well.
Although there was no angry expression on Rongguang's face, Iniesta could feel the anger suppressed by Rongguang in his body.
Iniesta has no position to blame Rongguang in this regard, because he has considered that it would be fake to say he is not angry if he is on Rongguang's standpoint.
But...ah, who made me a Barcelona player?
He stood on the court, and when he thought of what Rong Guang said at that time, he was lost.
"Andre, what are you thinking? They are going to kick off." Busquets next to him pushed Iniesta, and he came to his senses during the interview.
Iniesta looked back at Busquets.
The young man is smiling.
Iniesta sighed in his heart... What a devil and an angel
For Barcelona supporters, Busquets is undoubtedly an angel.
But to others he is a devil.
"It's nothing, Sergio. You should be particularly careful about Manchester City's counterattack in the second half. When defending in the midfield, if the situation is not good, just foul it and don't hesitate." Iniesta reminded Busquets.
Busquets was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "Don't worry, I will come according to the situation at that time."
Iniesta then gave a little snack. Busquets' fake fall actually showed his cleverness, so he must know what circumstances should be fouled and what circumstances should not be used.
Thinking of this, Iniesta felt at ease, began to calm down, and prepared to face the next second half.
※※※
After the second half of the game started, although Manchester City kicked off, Manchester City did not mean to invest a lot of troops in the offense.
After they fell in the backcourt, they handed the football to Glory.
Let's not care about it next.
Let Glory go to the fore.
Rong Guang held the ball and faced almost the entire Barcelona team. He kept the football in front of Barcelona's penalty area, and then shot a long shot from Barcelona's heavy encirclement, and the football was slightly higher than the crossbar.
Manchester City's offense has ended, and the ball has returned to Barcelona.
"...It can be seen that Manchester City retreated across the board, and they retreated very ruthlessly, even more ruthless than in the first half... Even Rong returned to the front of his penalty area to participate in the defense. Manchester City, who had one less, planned to defend directly until the end of the game, right? At the beginning of the second half, they had already changed people and replaced David Silva with Godin. The meaning of strengthening the defense is very obvious..."
John Mortson said.
Manchester City fans were all staring at the TV screen nervously at this time, fearing that the team's defense would fail. They looked at the game with one eye and the other eye would still be on the game time. For Manchester City fans, they had never felt like they were like this time.
Manchester City played very hard during this period.
Football can hardly even pass the mid-line, and if it is kicked out, it will fall to the feet of Barcelona players. Then Barcelona launches another attack, which makes Manchester City breathless. Barcelona's offense looks like they can score goals every time.
Although Benitez is good at playing defensive counterattacks, there is still a big difference between defensive counterattacks and direct defensive counterattacks. Being able to counterattacks may not necessarily put a bus in front of his goal.
Manchester City has been very passive and embarrassed during this period.
In the 53rd minute, Sabaleta received a yellow card in the defense and also gave Barcelona that free kick. Xavi's free kick was pushed to Pique to the ball. If Joe Hart had not stood well, he would have taken the ball directly and the ball might have been entered.
Just one minute later, Barcelona made a comeback. Ibrahimovic ignored Messi outside the penalty area and directly shot. His heavy artillery was blocked by Gareth Barrie with his chest.
But at the same time, Barry was also beaten out of breath. He lay on the ground and didn't come back to his senses for a long time. Even the team doctor came on the court.
In the 60th minute, another bad news came. When Manchester City's iron gate of the back of the low room, Matuidi was invading her thigh muscles while defending Messi in the game, she fell to the ground and was unable to hold on to the game.
So Benitez had to replace him and let Ireland replace him.
However, Matuidi is a very important member of Manchester City's midfield defense. Since joining the team, he has quickly become the main force. His tireless running and interception in the midfield are the key to Manchester City's ability to play defensive counterattacks.
Now he was injured and ended up in the game. When Manchester City needed defense the most, he played a midfielder who specialized in defense...
Benitez can't pull all the hair on his head - God, are you just going against me?
※※※
When Matuidi was lifted up by a stretcher, his hands also covered his face, but unlike Busquets, Matuidi's face was really sad from the bottom of his heart.
He knows the current situation of the team, he is very important to the team, and he will definitely worry about the team's performance after he leaves. At the same time, he also knows that he is not just absent from this Champions League game. He may also miss the next few league games. He can't help much in the process of fighting for the league championship.
At this moment, someone suddenly put his hand on his shoulder.
Matuidi took his hand away and saw Glory's face.
Rongguang didn't say anything, but just squeezed Matuidi's shoulder hard, and then he turned and ran back.

"Oh... Manchester City's situation is really bad now. Sneider was sent off for a fake fall by Busquets in the first half. Now their midfielder, Matuidi was injured and replaced again... This is really a mess..." Chinese commentator He Ping sighed. His words will definitely cause controversy after the game, of course, it is a controversy among Barcelona fans.
Because he directly said that Sneijder was cheated by Busquets, which may lead to dissatisfaction among some super hardcore and extreme Chinese Barcelona fans.
However, He Ping didn't care about the feelings of Barcelona fans at this time.
He is really worried about Manchester City's fate, or rather the fate of glory.
If the team where Rong Guang is working hard to lose to a team with better performance, He Ping has nothing to say. But in this situation, if Manchester City is eliminated, He Ping will feel very frustrated.
He is not the black man of Barcelona, but he can't help but want to blackmail Busquets's acting skills just now...
But the professional spirit of the commentator still made him restrain himself.
I can only hope that time will pass faster and faster. It is best now that the referee will blow the whistle at the end of the game...

In Manchester, England, Manchester City fans in front of the TV were silent when they saw Matuidi being carried down on a stretcher due to injury.
Many people held their heads with their hands and looked at the TV.
At this time, ominous thoughts surged into their hearts.
Is this a harbinger that God wants Manchester City to be eliminated?
No -
Many Manchester City fans shouted desperately in their hearts.
On the TV, John Motson and Alan Hansen are also raising concerns about Manchester City's prospects.
"Matuidi's injury may have a much better blow to Manchester City than Sneijder's red card..." Alan Hansen commented.
He was right, when the game started again, the impact of Matuidi's injury on Manchester City was quickly reflected.
Although Ireland is also a midfielder, he has been playing as a substitute for a long time and feels not as good as Matuidi in the game. In addition, in terms of personal abilities, he is still a little different from Matuidi. Otherwise, Benitez would have to buy Matuidi as the main force when there is Ireland?
In addition, Ireland has just started playing and has not been able to quickly enter the tense and intense atmosphere of the game. His pace of handling the ball is obviously slower than other players on the court.
So the first time he received the ball, he almost lost the ball under Barcelona's press. In the end, he kicked the ball out of the sideline and gave Barcelona an extra-boundary ball, but in fact he gave the ball possession to Barcelona...
Barcelona fans were excited. They were making noise in the stands and cheering for the team, hoping that Barcelona could seize this opportunity and score a goal.
As long as you can score a goal, Manchester City will definitely collapse.
Everyone thinks so now. Manchester City is just a matter of goal from a collapse.
The more Barcelona fans think, the more excited they get, the louder they make.
Camp Nou really feels like "hell" at this time.
Rong Guang looked up at the stands around him, and he could clearly see the excited and expectant expressions of Barcelona fans.
I really have to do something.
This momentum must not allow Barcelona to continue, otherwise something will happen or something big will happen.
He knew it was difficult, but wasn't this the charm of the Champions League?
Only here will you meet those very strong opponents and some difficult games to play. You may need to try your best and it depends on your luck.
But it's all fun.
Rongguang is willing to participate in such a competition because he wants to see how hard he can squeeze himself into.
Now, he felt that he was not at his limit.
