At the beginning of the game, Lazio increased the speed. It was different from the previous game. The two sides did not fight and fight back and forth in the midfield.
Taking advantage of the kick-off opportunity, Lazio just passed the ball back briefly and quickly moved forward.
Unlike Barcelona, they don't have to wait for their opponent's formation to break up before launching an attack.
They can tear apart the opponent's defense with their overall advancement and speed.
Even Guardiola, who knows Lazio very well, never expected that this team would launch such a rapid attack on Barcelona's goal at the beginning of the game!
It's the real "start of the game", and only a few seconds have passed since the whistle blew...
Lazio's fierce offensive not only surprised Guardiola, but also surprised the Barcelona players.
So Lazio's first attack easily advanced in front of their back line.
"Cavani's long shot——!"
The quality of the ball Cavani shot was quite high.
Valdes was forced to make his first save of the game, swatting the football away with one palm...
Otherwise, the ball would have gone directly into the goal!
So when Valdes saved the football, the Barcelona fans in the stands couldn't help but let out huge exclamations.
It was as if they were worried that the football would really fly into the goal... If Lazio scored less than a minute into the game, then the game would really be unplayable.
Less than half a minute into the game, Lazio gave Barcelona a slap on the wrist: I heard this is your home court?
Cavani put his head in his hands and looked very upset.
Not only him, but every Lazio fan is not upset...
At Camp Nou, it was the Barcelona fans who exclaimed, and in Rome, it was the Lazio fans who collectively exclaimed. Whether they were watching the game at home, in a bar, or anywhere else.

"Barcelona should be careful. From this attack, it can be seen that the Lazio players are in good condition... Cavani's long shot is very good. Of course, Valdes can also save it very well."
Okay...but you can’t count on Valdes making a save every time, right?”
The Catalan commentator frowned.
Lazio showed a murderous attitude from the beginning of this game, which always made him feel a little bad.
Barcelona's status for this game is still unknown.
But at least Lazio has shown their form.
"Barcelona must show our strength next, we must suppress Lazio's momentum and tell them that this is our home court! Otherwise it will get out of control!"
But not yet, because the next step is Lazio's corner kick.
Both tall center backs, Jose Passarella and Chiellini, appeared in Barcelona's penalty area.
This makes Valdes a little nervous. As we all know, Barcelona's air defense capability has always been very weak, and now it can basically only rely on Pique.
When the corner kick was taken, it was indeed the case.
Chiellini tightly wrapped around Pique, allowing Jose Passarella to get out of the way, and then suddenly turned forward, rushed forward and nodded with a lion's head.
Marcos was a step too late and didn’t catch up at all!
"Jose Passarella!!! Oops!"
When the Italian commentator saw Jose Passarella leaping high in front of the goal, there was not even a Barcelona defender around him. He was overjoyed and shouted excitedly. He thought the ball was good.
In fact, not only him, but also the Lazio fans, including the Lazio coaches in front of the coaching bench, all thought the goal was on target.
Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, the football hit the crossbar and bounced out again!
The crossbar was so wide that Jose Passarella was hit!
It's true... if he were to head the ball there, he probably wouldn't be able to hit it...
※※※
Jose Passarella's header caused chaos in Barcelona's penalty area!
When the football hit the crossbar, it also hit many people's hearts.
They had a sense of being out of power, so when the football flew over and they had to make a clearance, they couldn't use any strength.
Abidal pushed the football out of the penalty area, but not far.
The football fell to Ledesma.
Ledesma unloaded the football, then swung his foot and shot!
He had ample preparation time and stretched his body as much as possible.
Football is played with great force!
The ball penetrated everyone in the Barcelona penalty area and then... slightly went over the crossbar.
There was another burst of exclamations in the stands and in front of the TV.
"What a risk!"
"The game has only started for two minutes, and Lazio has already shot three times! And both of them hit the goal frame! They are full of momentum and enter the game very quickly! This is definitely not good news for Barcelona!"
Even fools can see that Lazio is in really good shape in this game... I don't understand why, but it's really good. Such a good shape is enough to threaten Barcelona.
The Barcelona fans in the stands were a little surprised.
They looked at each other.
Doesn't it mean that these people haven't even slept? How can they still be active in the game?
Does this look like you haven't had a good rest?
The group of Barcelona fans who participated in the troublemaking early this morning were the most surprised.
Looking at the performance of the Lazio players in front of them, they really wondered if they were looking in the wrong place early this morning...
※※※
Barcelona finally got a chance to attack. After being stunned, Barcelona fans cheered in the stands to cheer for Barcelona's attack.
Well, now that Lazio has proven their status with three consecutive attacks, they have built up their momentum.
Then Barcelona will have to use a more violent offensive to push them back and knock off their arrogance!
Valdes did not directly kick the football into the frontcourt, although the offensive progress would be faster if he did so.
But there are also great risks.
Barcelona is still used to pushing the football up from the backcourt little by little.
So he passed the football to center back Pique, and Pique sent the football forward.
But what Barcelona players and fans couldn't believe was this.
Their attack advanced to the center circle and was interrupted!
Yes, Butzquez lost the ball when three Lazio players surrounded him!
This scene really makes many people think...
Lazio took advantage of the situation and gave up their swift counterattack, while Barcelona could only retreat in a panic.
Fortunately, Lazio's attack did not score in the end, otherwise Barcelona would have been forced to a dead end...
But this time it still shocked many people.
Because they really didn't expect that their offense would not even be able to get past the midfield, and would be stopped by the opponent...
Lazio's players were like a group of mad dogs. They pounced from three directions at the same time, so fast that Butzquez had no time to react and fell into a circle.
Then there was a chaotic fight and the ball at his feet was lost.
Although Butzquez fell to the ground, opened his arms, and looked at the referee with longing eyes, hoping that the referee would know that Lazio's defense was fouled.
But the referee ignored him.
There is no problem with Lazio's defense!
Barcelona originally wanted to use this attack to form a continuous offensive and suppress Lazio's arrogance.
Unexpectedly, before even passing the center circle, the opponent stopped him and allowed the opponent to complete another attack...
※※※
Guardiola stood up from the coaching bench, stood on the sidelines with his hands folded on his chest and his brows furrowed.
He realized that this game was different from the last one.
Compared with the previous game, Lazio increased the speed from the beginning of this game, and their rhythm was always carried out in a high-speed environment.
Lazio's players seemed to be tireless and rushed to the fifth gear from the start.
Doing so will naturally make Barcelona unable to keep up with the pace. This is normal, and it would be strange if Barcelona can keep up with Lazio like this.
It's just that this kind of kicking method consumes a lot of physical energy...Don't you know that?
Guardiola turned his head and glanced at Chang Sheng.
Chang Sheng did not stand on the sidelines, but sat on the coaching bench. From this angle, only a quarter of his profile could be seen. His expression could not be seen at all.
How long can Lazio sustain if they continue to squander their physical fitness?
You definitely can’t hold on to a game. Can the first half be okay?
You must know that even if they regard it as coming by plane, it will still have an impact on their physical fitness.
Secondly, they had not slept well in the early hours of this morning.
As a result, it is doubtful how much physical strength they can still use.
But Guardiola doesn't care about this issue.
He knows the priorities. Compared with "How can Lazio last until the end of the game if we play like this", obviously "Barcelona will concede the ball before long if we continue to play like this" is more important...
He could more or less guess Chang Sheng's plan.
Why do we let the team attack with all their strength at the beginning of the game?
Why did the speed increase to the highest gear as soon as the race started?
Quite simply, they want a quick victory!
Their physical energy is not enough, so they choose to devote themselves fully at the beginning of the game, using up all their physical energy at this moment to attack Barcelona's defense. As long as they can successfully score one or two goals, this will
The suspense of the game is gone.
Lazio was already leading by two goals in total, and now it continues to lead. It will not be easy for Barcelona to catch up...
Then Lazio retreated to defend. With such a big lead, it was enough for them to eliminate Barcelona and advance to the finals.
What Barcelona should do now is control, slow down the rhythm, and focus on defense at the same time.
Just let Lazio not score before they run out of energy.
When Lazio has no physical fitness and starts running, what is the difference between them and an ordinary team?
Barcelona can usually play five teams like this.
And the current Lazio is very special to Barcelona.
They have the same genes as him, and are more ferocious. (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
