Chapter 98: God only cares for those who never give up!

The atmosphere in the visiting team's locker room was lively, with Liague roaring and high-fiving every teammate, Miguel telling his teammates about his "greatness", and Zucculini salivating about how he blocked Iniesta's low shot.

shoot……

Li Chuanqi wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked at his teammates happily.

They are sharing their joy...

Li Chuanqi nodded, that must be the case.

If there is wine, they will definitely toast proudly and talk about their "great achievements".

As the captain, Pablo is one of the calmest people. He shouted loudly: "Brothers! Brothers! Be quiet! Be quiet!"

The voices in the locker room became quieter. The captain has the highest authority in the locker room.

"The first half is over. We did a great job. Everyone tried their best, did what they should do, and played their best!"

The captain briefly summarized the situation in the first half and pushed coach Antonio to the front desk: "The first half was perfect, but the game is not over yet. Now please coach us to arrange tactics for the second half!"

Amidst the applause, Antonio walked to the middle and carefully drew a few words on the tactical board.

"here!"

He pointed to the edge of the penalty area: "This is the most important place for our defense, but they got four shooting opportunities here in the first half."

Several defensive players nodded slightly, remembering that Iniesta had two shots here.

"The most important thing in this area is to limit Iniesta's performance."

Antonio continued: "With Xavi and Messi absent, he is the engine of Barcelona's offense. Limiting his performance will kill half of Barcelona's offensive firepower."



The atmosphere in the home team's locker room was a little dull. Messi and Xavi sat with their teammates and listened to Guardiola's analysis: "The offense needs to be more patient. We don't need a flash of inspiration. What we need is to always control the football."

Under your own feet."

He looked up at his players: "However, after falling behind by one goal, we seemed too impatient and wanted to create shooting opportunities as soon as possible. This is wrong!"

After analyzing the offense, he began to analyze the defense: "Assist defense! The goal conceded in the first half was because the assist defense was not in place!"

Captain Puyol took the initiative to take the responsibility on himself: "It's my responsibility."

"I didn't think we needed help," he explained.

Yes, facing a D-League striker, do we need to help defend?

Every Barcelona player thought so at the time.

Guardiola did not dwell on this: "After the opponent's No. 17 youngster gets the ball, he must pay attention to assisting in defense in the second half because he is very fast."

He continued: "Also, pay attention to their No. 9, who came out of the Real Madrid youth academy."

Guardiola did not encourage the players passionately, because in his opinion, facing a D-level team does not require encouragement, the players will definitely work hard in the second half.

He knows the players don't want to lose to a D-tier team at Camp Nou.



After a fifteen-minute intermission, players from both teams walked out of the locker room and returned to the court.

The atmosphere at Camp Nou became lively again, with Santa Malaga supporters giving the warmest applause.

"Beep!..."

With the referee's whistle, the second half of the game began.

Santa Malaga resolutely implemented the tactics of the first half and accumulated heavy troops in the midfield and backfield.

Barcelona, ​​who had control of the ball, followed Guardiola's midfield plan and moved forward unhurriedly, firmly controlling the football at their feet.

Saint Malaga dealt with the opponent patiently, knowing that under this calmness, a violent and fatal blow could come at any time.

In the eighth minute of the first half, under the command of Iniesta, Barcelona suddenly accelerated and played a series of beautiful one-twos in the middle.

Innesta made a diagonal pass outside the penalty area, and the football passed behind center back Barris Addo!

Substitute forward Isaac rushed over!

The Barcelona Sports commentator shouted: "Opportunity!

A great pass from Iniesta!

Single sword!

Isaac faces the opposing striker directly!”

The Malaga TV commentator exclaimed: "Danger!"

The atmosphere at Camp Nou suddenly became tense, and a storm seemed to be brewing.

In the Santa Malaga penalty area, facing the attacking MiG, Isaac took a big step forward with his left foot, stepped on the left side of the football, and pushed the ball with his right foot!

The air at Camp Nou was frozen.

The football passed through Miguel's right foot like a sharp arrow!

Barcelona fans stood up excitedly and raised their hands high...

Immediately afterwards, the football slid out of the door against the pillar!

"No!……"

Barcelona fans screamed.

Isaac looked at the football flying out of the field in disbelief. Did he miss it with one hand?!

Guardiola walked from the bench to the command area, loudly encouraged the players and told them not to pay attention to the ball.

Seven minutes later, Barcelona made a comeback. This time they opened a gap from the right, Alves crossed the middle, and Fabregas grabbed the ball in front of Barris Addo!

Barcelona fans once again saw hope of equalizing the score.

However, reality once again disappointed them, Fabregas's push shot missed the goal!

In the 23rd minute of the second half, Barcelona once again had a chance to score. Fabregas' pass from outside the penalty area pierced Santa Malaga's defense.

Midfielder Keita inserted in the back row to form a one-man attack!

Under the watchful eyes of more than 50,000 spectators, Keita calmly dunked the attacking MiG and pushed the ball past him!

The football goes towards the empty goal!

Damn, it should be okay this time...

As soon as this idea came to Barcelona fans, they became desperate.

Baris Addo lost his focus and made a flying shovel to shovel the football out of the baseline!

Two single swords...

The hearts of Barcelona fans are bleeding. Two single-handed goals were not scored. God, why?

“Santa Malaga!”

“Santa Malaga!”

“Santa Malaga!”

Santa Malaga supporters from all over the country roared.

They want to use their roars to save their little hearts that are about to be broken.

The Malaga TV commentator shouted loudly: "This is the tough Santa Malaga!

Baris Addo almost shoveled the inevitable ball out of the goal line!

God only favors those who persevere!

Lady luck only favors those who never give up!"

Guardiola stared at the court in stunned silence, then covered his mouth.

Two single goals failed to score, which cast a shadow over the Barcelona players.

However, this did not make them at a loss. They quickly regained control of the ball at their feet and launched another attack on Santa Malaga.

In the 28th minute of the second half, Barcelona got an excellent direct free kick opportunity in front of the penalty area. Iniesta's free kick went over the crossbar!

Four minutes later, Cesc Fabregas fired a shot from the upper left corner of the penalty area. The football passed over Miguel, who was leaping high, and then hit the crossbar hard and bounced out of the baseline!
