When the game reached the 93rd minute, amid the screams of nearly 100,000 Barcelona fans at Camp Nou, Su Dong advanced with the ball at high speed and sent a through ball to David Shee.
In front of Erva.
The Spanish midfielder inserted into the left side of the penalty area. After catching up with the ball, Mascherano blocked the shooting angle. He had no choice but to protect the ball and pass it back to Su Dong who was following behind.
Su Dong directly knocked back with his heel and reached the front of the penalty area.
Toni Kroos quickly stepped in, stopped, raised his right foot, and shot a long shot.
This is the area that the German midfielder is best at, and it is also his best way to score.
This long-range shot was very powerful and the angle was very tricky, making it difficult for goalkeeper Valdez to make a save.
In an instant, the entire stadium was engulfed in a cry of despair.
If Manchester City scores this goal again, it will be zero to two, and Barcelona will be completely finished!
But just when they were desperate, they heard a bang as the ball hit the right post and bounced back into the penalty area.
All Barcelona fans were moved by the feeling of surviving the disaster, and many fans actually applauded directly.
The ball bounced off the post and caused chaos in the Barcelona penalty area. In the end, Mascherano took the lead and kicked the ball out. It went directly out of bounds and became a throw-in for Manchester City.
But the perfect scoring opportunity was missed.
Toni Cross was so remorseful that he squatted on the ground and was unwilling to stand up for a long time.
After Manchester City sent a throw-in, Turkish referee Cakir also blew the whistle to end the game.
Zero to one, the scoreboard showed the final result of this game.
Manchester City defeated Barcelona 1-0 away with Su Dong's goal at the end of the first half.
…
The entire Camp Nou stadium turned into a sea of chaos and disorder.
Some fans are quite satisfied with this result, but not because Barcelona performed well enough, but because they only conceded one goal.
Some fans were very dissatisfied with this result, so they were booing, accusing, and even faintly heard calls for Mourinho to be fired. Obviously, the Barcelona fans' patience with the Portuguese madman has reached its limit.
There were also cheers from Manchester City fans.
Being able to defeat Barcelona 1-0 away from home is definitely a very good result for Manchester City, because after returning to the Etihad Stadium, Manchester City has every opportunity to further expand its lead.
The fans of the two teams had different reactions, which caused chaos in the stadium stands. Various voices were intertwined and the scores were unclear.
…
Manchester City's players felt a little disappointed after the whistle sounded.
Su Dong also walked over specially, pulled up Toni Kroos who was squatting on the ground, touched his head comfortingly, put his arms around his shoulders, and comforted him a few words.
The German midfielder does have reason to feel depressed because he missed a golden opportunity.
If that goal had been scored, Toni Kroos would have been a major contributor to Manchester City's victory.
Of course, Su Dong will also benefit, not only from assists, but also from his heels. This is another classic that countless media and fans talk about.
But unfortunately, Toni Kroos' long-range shot hit the post.
The German midfielder's mood improved somewhat under Su Dong's comfort, but at this moment, Su Dong suddenly asked incomprehensibly, "To be honest, I'm quite surprised. The goal is so big, Valdez's position
It's so far away, why do you have to pick a pillar to hit?"
One sentence immediately made Toni Kroos almost cry again.
Brother, are you sure you are comforting me?
Are you sure you're not adding insult to injury?
Seeing Toni Kroos' tearless expression, Su Dong laughed and patted his shoulder hard, "Okay, okay, aren't I curious?"
The German midfielder was also very depressed and directly replied, "I was led astray by you."
"What?" Su Dong was depressed now.
"As you said, you Chinese have a saying, those who are close to the vermillion are red and those who are close to the ink are black. After I have been with you for a long time, I can't help but want to imitate you, and I want to hit a blind spot when I start, so..."
Toni Kroos shrugged speechlessly, obviously very depressed about this result.
In fact, if he didn't pursue the shooting angle too much, he would still be very confident about this shot.
But the problem is that at that moment, he wanted to hit a blind corner.
The final result was that he hit the ball directly into the post.
"If God gives me another chance, I will definitely say to myself, don't hit the dead end!"
"If I must add a deadline in front of this sentence, I hope it is..."
Before Toni Kroos finished speaking, Su Dong slapped him on the back of the head and said, "Speak like a human being."
The German midfielder immediately swallowed the rest of his words.
I don’t know when he watched two Chinese movies at Su Dong’s place, which were said to be about famous classics. He couldn’t remember exactly what they were about, except for a few lines that he remembered deeply.
Because I often joke with Marcelo, Pepe and others.
At this moment, his mood was exactly like that of the monkey at that moment.
It’s all life!
…
After comforting Toni Kroos and celebrating the away victory with his teammates, Sudong received congratulations from his former Barcelona teammates one after another.
That's what professional football is like.
Before and after the game, both parties can be very good friends, but during the game, each other is an opponent, a relentless opponent, so you can often see two good friends shoveling each other to the point of defeat in the game.
As long as you're not trying to hurt your opponent, it's basically understandable.
Just like the incident between Cristiano Ronaldo and Rooney at the World Cup in Germany, Su Dong stood up to support his good friend. This was also what he thought in his heart, that is, Rooney was right.
Whether or not Ronnie put pressure on the referee to send off Rooney, he was right.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Because in that game, he was not a Manchester United player, but wearing the jersey of the Portuguese national team. He and Rooney were mortal enemies and asked the referee to send him off
Rivals, any questions?
If you think that professional football should also consider the so-called "competition first, friendship second", this is an absolute misunderstanding.
It's like what domestic textbooks say about Fowler giving up shooting. The truth is simply not the case.
First of all, it must be clear that in that game, when Fowler gave up his shot, Liverpool was leading Arsenal 1-0 away from home, and even so, after Fowler was knocked down by Seaman, he only got up to help Seaman.
After explaining, the referee changed the penalty kick and Fowler also took the penalty kick.
When taking the penalty kick, Fowler obviously wanted to score. He took the penalty directly to the lower right corner of the goal, but was saved by Seaman. It was not like the textbook said, kicking directly towards Seaman.
chest, so this resulted in Seaman only having time to save the ball but not being able to control it.
More importantly, when the penalty kick was missed, Fowler ran over to take a follow-up shot, but his teammate McAteer made the follow-up shot one step faster than him.
And the final result was that Liverpool defeated Arsenal 2-1.
UEFA's subsequent fair play award was for Fowler's defense of Seaman, not for the subsequent alleged abandonment of the shot.
The football reporter who wrote this article is full of conjecture and imagination. This is also in line with the practice of domestic media in those years. They often even rely on imagination to write football reports, whether it is foreign football or domestic football.
In fact, it is completely conceivable that if a professional player, receiving a high salary from a club, lets his opponent down on the football field and deliberately fails to score goals, causing the team to suffer losses, let me ask, does this player have professional ethics?
?
For the same reason, the players themselves also make a clear distinction.
The game is a game and life is life.
We fight on the playing field, but off the field, we are all still good friends.
Many Barcelona players, including Puyol and Xavi, came forward to congratulate Sudong. Alves and others also approached Marcelo and Pepe, and they are still friends with each other.
In the end, Su Dong hugged Messi on one side and Iniesta on the other. The three of them stood side by side and talked.
It's just that Messi's mood is not very good, and he was obviously affected by the game.
"We played too conservatively," Messi finally couldn't help but said.
He is a shy person, even now, especially to an outsider like Su Dong, to be able to say such things shows that he is dissatisfied with Mourinho in his heart.
Not only him, but Xavi, Iniesta and others are also very dissatisfied with Mourinho.
In the final analysis, the same sentence is too conservative.
"If we lose the home game, he will definitely have something to say. It may be our fault or someone else's fault, but it is definitely not his fault." When Iniesta said this, he couldn't help but let out a cry.
Sigh.
"This is a mistake!"
Sudong felt that what Iniesta was talking about was the appointment of Mourinho as Barcelona head coach.
In fact, this is not only an internal problem for Barcelona, but also a matter for the Spanish national team. Because Barcelona is currently lagging behind Real Madrid in the standings, Mourinho even asked some of Barcelona's Spanish internationals to publicly support him.
Real Madrid's homegrown players draw the line.
But how is this possible?
As a result, Mourinho received strong backlash from the players, which further stimulated him to increase the pressure.
Sometimes, even Su Dong himself can't figure out what Mourinho is thinking.
"Actually, even in a confrontation, you have little chance." Su Dong said neutrally.
This is true.
Just like the European Super Cup, Barcelona still lost to Manchester City in a fierce battle?
Barcelona's problem has been around for a long time now. If they want to play passing and controlling the ball, they may not be able to put together such a lineup.
Head coach Mourinho has no such opportunity. The most important midfielder is in the fourth position. Barcelona now has no one to step up. After being tempered in the Premier League, Cesc Fabregas is no longer a traditional fourth position.
Player.
"But we tried our best and we won't be as frustrated as we are now, right?"
Messi's rhetorical question left Su Dong speechless.
