After the start of the second half of the game, Barcelona's helpless situation continued.
Southampton's defense became tighter and more determined in the second half.
With one ball in hand, even if they conceded two goals in the second half and lost 1-2 in the away game, it would not be an ugly score.
So they don't have to worry now.
They are not in a hurry, but Barcelona cannot be in a hurry.
If you don't win more than one or two at home, wouldn't it be easier for you to be suppressed by your opponents when you go to the away game?
Therefore, their offense began to become more intense, and the fighting and confrontation between the two sides on the court also began to become more intense.
Luke Shaw and Iniesta both received yellow cards. This kind of confrontation made Barcelona fans very worried, because it is obvious that such a constantly interrupted game rhythm is definitely very detrimental to Barcelona.
This is indeed the case. Southampton is dragging the game into a bad state. Anyway, Southampton is better at disrupting the game.
In the melee, Southampton's fast attack worked again!
In the 56th minute, Southampton launched a counterattack. Casemiro passed the ball directly to the left. Ronaldo received the ball and turned around. At this time, Suarez in the center and Lukaku on the right were already ready at the same time.
The shot attracted a lot of attention. Seeing that no one came up to defend him, Ronaldo took a step forward with the ball, and then suddenly took a long shot!
This long-range shot thirty meters away from the goal was an out-and-out world-wide shot. The ball roared into the air, and then fell rapidly!
Pinto's reaction was obviously a step too slow. When he took off and stretched out his arms, the ball had already flown past his hands and then plunged into the blind spot of the goal!
World wave, absolute world wave!
Ronaldo once again showed his characteristics, that is, he doesn't score many goals, but whenever he scores, it is always the kind of jaw-dropping world wave!
This one is no exception.
After scoring the goal, Ronaldo was about to celebrate, but he was pushed down by his teammates from behind. Suarez rushed up and gave him a big hug, and then knocked him to the ground. Others swarmed up and tried to trick him.
The handsome Colombian was directly at the bottom!
"Boss, they bully me like this every time!" The Colombian complained to Ji Ya with great grievance.
"Next time, do the same to them!" Ji Ya replied, slapping her hands.
Southampton's second goal left Barcelona with no way out.
In terms of tactical suddenness in this game, they were completely deceived by Ji Ya. When defending, most of their attention was on Suarez. After all, Suarez's performance in the last two games was so exciting, and his recent performance is also
It's very exciting. Under such circumstances, Ji Ya made Lukaku and Ronaldo the main offensive players, which had an excellent effect!
Suarez himself has no problem with being used as a cover. After all, this is the Champions League and he has scored quite a lot of goals this season. In this case, the collective honor is of course more interesting.
Moreover, this year is the year of the World Cup. Even if Suarez performs well in the club, he will not be able to win honors such as the Golden Globe Award. After all, the strength of the Uruguay national team is limited and it will be difficult for him to perform well in the World Cup.
So thinking about it this way, he felt very peaceful.
With no way out, Barcelona started a crazy attack.
This is the only way they can.
Martino replaced Cesc Fabregas with Sanchez, and Barcelona's midfielder finally returned to the classic Habaib configuration.
This made their midfield organization and attack much smoother than before, which also made Fabregas on the bench very frustrated. For three years, he has not been able to truly replace any of the three players.
, he really made the wrong move by returning to Barcelona.
Moreover, they have not been able to win the Champions League in the past two years, and now, it is the third year.
You must know that in the past seven or eight years, Barcelona has never failed to win the Champions League for three consecutive years!
They were the Champions League champions in the 05-06 season, and then they won the Champions League again in the 08-09 season, followed by the 10-11 season.
As a result, after he joined, there was no Champions League.
It feels miserable to say this...
Of course, the Barcelona players couldn't consider Fabio's mood at this time, they were just attacking desperately.
This kind of offensive allowed them to finally score in the 76th minute. Messi pulled out of the penalty area and then distributed the ball. Iniesta made a beautiful direct pass. Otamendi was a step behind in the interception. Neymar
Receive the ball in the penalty area and then skillfully push the ball into the far corner!
Navas's save was also a little slow, and the ball flew into the blind spot of the goal!
Barcelona fans gave a huge cheer and finally saw a goal, so what happens next...
Of course, there will be no second goal in sight!
Although Barcelona's offensive has generally recovered at this time, their physical fitness has been dragged down. In addition, Southampton's counterattack ability has always made them afraid, and Ji Ya replaced Matic and
Rudiger and others strengthened their defense and successfully maintained the two-to-one advantage until the end!
Southampton defeated Barcelona 2-1 in an away game and took the lead in the two rounds!
When the referee blew the whistle to end the game, the Barcelona fans let out a huge sigh. They were very depressed about the result. Although they only lost one goal, they lost two goals at home.
A goal, such a result is simply worse than a disastrous home defeat.
What's even more terrible is, if Southampton continues to use defensive counterattack tactics, how will Barcelona break it?
There is absolutely no way to crack it!
At least the Barcelona fans couldn't figure it out, and looking at Martino's depressed look, he, the head coach, couldn't figure it out either.
What's more terrible than losing is having no hope.
The Southampton fans began to celebrate excitedly. Although 2-1 is not a big score, compared with the previous 3-2 Bayern at home, this score is much more favorable, although they are also winners.
Got a ball.
Home and away games look so different.
"It's nice to get a win away from home... but we only won by one goal. Barcelona's attack is very good and they have the ability to score more goals in the game, so it doesn't mean that we will definitely enter."
The semi-finals... This season still has a long way to go, and we have to go step by step. The knockout rounds of the Champions League are a very novel experience for us. I hope that in this first experience, our
The feeling can get better and better.”
Noriya's words after the game were very modest, but if you think about it carefully, it seems that he is not so humble, but a little domineering.
It’s obscure, but it’s still a declaration of victory.
