When conceding the first goal, Barcelona coach Enrique was very calm.
He has experienced a lot of falling behind.
Zhao Yang scored again, and Enrique could no longer maintain his grace. He became furious, rushed to the sidelines, and yelled at the Barcelona players.
Enrique was angry at Neymar for showing off regardless of the overall situation, and also angry that so many people couldn't stop Zhao Yang, allowing him to score two goals.
With a gap of two goals, even if they beat a relegation team, it would be difficult to make a comeback, let alone a dark horse team that regards Barcelona as its mortal enemy.
The only thing that makes Enrique feel lucky is that there is still plenty of time. If we can pull one back in the first half, there is still hope of winning.
In the VIP box, Barcelona Chairman Bartomeu opened his eyes wide again!
Another goal? Barcelona two goals behind?
Isn’t this a little troublesome? It’s a lot of trouble!
Even at Camp Nou, it is not easy to complete a comeback from two goals behind.
Bartomeu is not a football idiot. He understands what it means to lead by two goals?
This Parrot Corps, whose backbone was broken at Camp Nou, must be full of confidence now, and confidence will double the fighting spirit and strength of every Spanish player.
At this moment, Bartomeu had a hunch that he might lose.
Chen Yansheng, who was sitting opposite Bartomeu, was surprised and happy.
Coming to Camp Nou today, Boss Chen was actually mentally prepared to lose.
Here, the Spaniard's record is really hard to describe.
It's hard to even score a goal, let alone win.
Now, with only 15 minutes of game time, the Spaniard has scored two goals, surpassing the number of goals scored in the previous 7 games.
This... feels a bit like a dream?
Although it was very sad to see Barcelona chairman Bartomeu's expression, Chen Yansheng still applauded and walked out of the box to the camp of Espanyol fans to celebrate with them.
In the commentary box
Commentators from various countries were shocked.
When Barcelona conceded the first goal, they felt that Barcelona was careless.
After all, at Camp Nou, Barcelona's record and psychological advantage over the Spaniard are so great that it is impossible not to underestimate the enemy, even if the Spaniard is now a dark horse.
The commentators almost all took it for granted that after conceding the goal, Barcelona would definitely become serious. Facing a serious Barcelona, the Spaniards would not have any chance.
However, the Spaniards once again proved that their record and ranking this season were not stolen.
The Spaniards today are no longer the Spaniards they used to be.
After being shocked, He Wei sighed: "The goal is so beautiful! The counterattack is so sharp! This Spaniard is amazing! Without injuries, they definitely have the strength to enter the Champions League!"
Fang Jiandao: "If Boss Chen is willing to spend more money during the winter break, the Spaniards may not be able to become a spoiler. If they can win this game, they will be only two points away from Barcelona."
He Wei shook his head and said: "It's difficult! It's difficult! It's okay to be fourth in the league. None of the top three, Barcelona, Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid, is easy to mess with. Besides, it's difficult for big names to enter the transfer market during the winter break. Even if there are big names,
People are not necessarily willing to go to a weak team like Espanyol. It is also a problem to buy people and adjust them. The Champions League or Europa League are very practical. It is not good to aim too high."
Fang Jian laughed loudly and said: "Look, even me, a spectator, is a little bit carried away by the victory. I hope the Spanish coach and boss can calm down."
After scoring two goals in a row, Spanish head coach Sergio celebrated and then found captain Lopez and asked the team to focus on defense and have a good chance to counterattack. They cannot continue to attack like this.
Lopez is an old player. He knows the strength of Barcelona and takes it seriously. After receiving instructions from Sergio, he went to Asensio and Zhao Yang and told them what the coach meant.
Luckily for Zhao Yang, he was feeling refreshed after scoring two goals. Even though he thought he could take advantage of the situation to pursue, he still nodded in agreement.
But Asensio is different.
As one of the Spaniard's two-core team, Zhao Yang stole the show, but as a loan player from Real Madrid, he failed to perform, which Asensio couldn't accept.
"The coach is too conservative! We should take advantage of the victory to pursue it. If we beat the snake, we will be bitten by the snake. Two goals are not safe."
Asensio said enthusiastically.
Lopez was also in agitated mood at the moment, but he still said cautiously: "We can't just think about scoring goals. The coach's idea is still very safe."
Asensio said: "We also defended and counterattacked at the beginning. Barcelona was two goals behind and will definitely counterattack. If there is a chance to counterattack, we still can't be conservative. Look, don't you think so?"
Zhao Yang couldn't quite understand the complicated conversation between Asensio and Lopez. Even after guessing and thinking, he almost understood. Facing Asensio's inquiry, he nodded and expressed support.
Lopez felt that Asensio's words made sense, and when Zhao Yang nodded, he said nothing more.
The game started again, and an angry Barcelona launched a flood of attacks against the Spaniards.
Although during the celebration, the captain and the two core members of the Spanish team did not want to defend, but it was not up to them.
Barcelona went crazy and did not give them a chance to attack.
As an old rival, the Spaniards did not shrink significantly. Under Barcelona's strong pressure, they still tried their best to expand their formation outwards to prevent Barcelona from cooperating at the front of their penalty area.
This is a smart move, and only a well-informed opponent like the Spaniard can understand the horror of Barcelona's short pass.
This is a team that has been practicing passing and controlling since the youth team, allowing them to cooperate at the front of the penalty area. Even if eleven people are lined up inside and outside the penalty area, they still have a chance to pass the ball and shoot.
The Spaniard expanded his formation and refused to let Barcelona get close to his penalty area, engaging in close combat with Barcelona outside the attacking third.
Barcelona's tactic of forcing the Spaniard into the penalty area and attacking failed. They immediately changed their strategy and frequently penetrated behind the Spaniard's defender.
In the 18th minute of the game, Rakitic, who had received the least "care", saw Suarez advancing and immediately passed through the middle. The ball passed between the two Spaniard center backs and flew towards the penalty area.
Rakitic's skills are only average in Barcelona, but the ball was passed very well. Goalkeeper Lopez realized that something was wrong and wanted to attack. Suarez had already got the ball at the edge of the penalty area.
Just when the Spaniard was shocked, the linesman's flag was raised and the referee's whistle sounded. It turned out that the ball was offside.
Although the linesman saved the Spaniard this time, the Spaniards did not change their strategy. They even targeted Barcelona's through ball tactics and caused offside.
In the 23rd minute of the game, Rakitic took the ball to the right side of the front court and passed it diagonally behind the defender. This time Suarez ran too early and fell into the Spaniard's offside trap again.
After getting two single-ball opportunities, both were called offside. Suarez was very angry and went to the referee to argue, but Gonzalez ignored it and just let the Spaniard serve the ball from the back.
Suarez was still chattering to the referee, but was pulled away by Iniesta and Messi. They didn't want to be sent off again when they were two goals behind. Then Barcelona would be unable to recover.
