"Sure enough, Rijkaard replaced Larsson and replaced him with Su Dong."
"I believe everyone should be sure by now that today's Barcelona still very much needs a powerful scorer like Su Dong, as well as a dominant center in the penalty area to shock the opponent's defense."
"Although in recent years, some players in European football have adopted center-less tactics, or even directly adopted center-less tactics, the center is still the tireless pursuit of all teams, and all head coaches are eager to have a strong high center.
."
"I wonder if Su Dong can change the situation on the court after he comes on the court?"
"The second half of the game has begun."
"Barcelona continues to press forward and press in the midfield and frontcourt."
"I grabbed the ball, passed it back, and reorganized."
…
After Su Dong came on the court, he didn't even touch the ball.
He also participated in pressing and pressing in the frontcourt, but the opponent's players always avoided him.
When Barcelona successfully intercepted the ball and switched from defense to offense, Zaragoza's defensive players were quite worried about him and were always vigilant.
After passing back and forth in the backcourt, Barcelona quickly distributed the ball to the left and passed it to Ronaldinho.
The Brazilian dribbled the ball and tried to cut inside, forcing Zaragoza's right back Poncio to follow and give up the left side of the frontcourt. Ronaldinho took the ball after a feint shot.
Passed back to the left.
I saw Van Bronckhorst quickly running forward along the left sideline. After receiving Ronaldinho's pass, he strode to the bottom line and glanced at the penalty area. Su Dong had already raised his right hand high.
Without thinking, the Dutch left back dribbled the ball to the left side of the penalty area. Without waiting for Poncio to come up, he passed directly with his left foot.
This cross had a beautiful arc and enough height, and it landed between the small penalty area and the penalty spot.
Su Dong quickly threw away Gabriel Milito and Alvaro, rushed directly to the landing point, and jumped high into the air.
Milito and Alvaro didn't even take off when they saw Su Dong directly heading the ball towards the goal, passing Van Bronckhorst's cross from the left to the left side of the goal.
Brazilian goalkeeper Cesar made a side dive, but failed to save the ball. The ball went directly into the left side of the goal.
"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!"
"Only two minutes into the second half, Barcelona got a goal back!"
"The first time Su Dong touched the ball after coming on the field, he scored for Barcelona!"
"This is Su Dong!"
"Throughout the first half, no matter how Barcelona's offensive players attacked, they were still unable to break through Zaragoza's goal. As a result, as soon as Su Dong came on the field, he broke through the goal guarded by Cesar with his first shot and got a goal back for Barcelona.
."
After Su Dong scored, he pointed at Van Bronckhorst who sent the assist. Then he was hugged by Messi who rushed over. Other Barcelona players also followed to celebrate Su Dong's victory.
Goal.
Van Bommel also ran over and high-fived Su Dong, smiling and saying, "That's great!"
"Am I right?" Su Dong asked with a smile.
The Dutch midfielder waved his hands repeatedly in embarrassment, signaling Su Dong to stop hitting him.
Van Bommel has long been aware of his problem.
Zaragoza's two central defenders, Gabriel Milito and Alvaro, are both not tall. The Argentinian central defender is only 1.77 meters, and Alvaro is only 1.82 meters, which is more than a dozen shorter than Su Dong.
centimeters.
Don't underestimate these ten centimeters. Coupled with Su Dong's powerful body and excellent prediction of the landing point, it is enough to completely put Zaragoza's two central defenders at a disadvantage.
So why couldn't Larsson do it in the first half?
Because Larson is only 1.77 meters tall and he is already thirty-four years old, his physical advantage is not obvious.
As a center forward, when Larsson is locked up by his opponent, it will be difficult for Barcelona to create a threat from crosses from the wing.
On the other hand, when Zaragoza habitually tried to restrict Sudong with its first-half defense, it suffered a big loss.
Sometimes, a player's strength not only includes skills and awareness, but also their bodies.
…
There is one thing Zaragoza does better than Barcelona.
That is, head coach Munoz responded quickly. After seeing Su Dong's goal, he immediately made adjustments, strengthened his defense against Su Dong, and also restricted Barcelona's kicking from both wings.
Everything has pros and cons.
When Zaragoza tried to prevent Barcelona from crossing the wing to find Sudong, Barcelona's two wings began to cut inside to get more space.
In the 61st minute, Messi took the ball from the right and suddenly started, diagonally inserted into the penalty area along the right rib, directly rushed into Zaragoza's penalty area with the ball, and was tripped by the defensive player in the penalty area. The referee did not care.
A penalty kick was awarded hesitantly.
Ronaldinho came out to pick the peaches without hesitation, and he scored the penalty kick for Barcelona, and once again recovered a goal, 2 to 3!
Subsequently, Barcelona began to exert force frequently, and Zaragoza's defense became even more difficult.
Munoz immediately replaced two players and continued to strengthen the defense.
Everyone can clearly see that after Su Dong came on the court, Barcelona's offense became more three-dimensional and its methods became richer.
Zaragoza's methods of freezing Barcelona in the first half were all ineffective in the second half.
Until the 89th minute, Messi again sent a direct pass from the right rib and sent the ball to the right side of the penalty area. Sudong used his body to hold Gabriel Milito in the penalty area and stopped the ball.
Then he turned around and volleyed with his left foot into the far corner, breaking through Zaragoza's goal again and equalizing the score for Barcelona.
Three to three!
When Su Dong ran to the sidelines laughing to celebrate his goal, Van Bommel was the first to run over and high-five him.
"I'm convinced! I'm really convinced!" the Dutch midfielder said with a magnanimous smile.
He is considered a big boss in Eindhoven and the Dutch national team, which makes him arrogant and unconvinced by anyone, not only Sudong, but also Ronaldinho.
But tonight, he was really convinced by Su Dong!
In the upper and lower halves, whether it is the fans on the sidelines or the players on the court, the feelings are completely different.
The Barcelona players felt even more deeply because they played very poorly in the first half, but played very smoothly in the second half.
The biggest difference is just that there is a different person on the front line.
Van Bommel is really convinced!
He really realized that Su Dong was more important than he thought!

Barcelona's 3-3 draw with Zaragoza in an away game caused heated discussion among the outside world with their completely different performances in the first and second halves.
Daily Sports believes that the current Barcelona team is suffering from a disease called [Sudong Syndrome].
"When Barcelona players can't see Su Dong on the court, they start to lose their ability to play football."
This is not just what Daily Sports said. Zaragoza head coach Munoz also said at the post-match press conference that Su Dong's appearance as a substitute was a turning point in the game. He brought more than just goals to the Barcelona players.
The ball and tactical role, but also confidence.
"We can clearly feel that the Barcelona players played more accurately after Su Dong came on the field. They began to find their direction, but in the first half, they felt lost."
Rijkaard was not willing to overexaggerate the role of individual players, but he still had to admit that Sudong was the contributor to the team's away draw with Zaragoza.
When Dutch midfielder Van Bommel was interviewed by the media after the game, he was full of praise for Su Dong, believing that Su Dong brought confidence to the team, "He is an incredible player. During halftime, he told us,
We were half-convinced that he could break through Zaragoza's defense, but within two minutes, he did it."
"I was thinking, Oh my god, what kind of person does this have to be to do this?"
"With teammates like this beside us, we will feel particularly powerful!"

Over the weekend, in the 20th round of La Liga, Barcelona welcomed deputy captain Alaves.
There is a huge disparity in strength between the two teams. Barcelona is playing at home and has frequently exerted force and created threats from the beginning.
In the 17th minute, Ronaldinho made a diagonal pass from the left into the penalty area. Su Dong grabbed the first spot and headed the ball back to the edge of the penalty area. However, Van Bommel, who came in from behind, stopped the ball too far.
, a great opportunity was missed.
The Dutch midfielder was so angry that he even took his head off.
In the 34th minute, Su Dong retreated to receive the ball from midfield, then turned around and sent a direct pass.
Iniesta quickly sprinted past Sudong and caught up with Sudong's pass near the penalty spot. However, the subsequent shot was too straight and was saved directly by the opponent's goalkeeper.
After being squandered two opportunities by his teammates, Su Dong finally couldn't help but take action himself.
A minute later, after Marcos Senna intercepted the ball, he accurately sent the ball to Ronaldinho's feet. The Brazilian superstar passed the ball directly to Su Dong. Without thinking, Su Dong shot directly through the ball.
Hit Alaves' goal and opened the scoring for Barcelona, 1-0!
In the stoppage time of the first half, Ronaldinho made another pass from the left. Su Dong in the middle deliberately missed it and let the ball pass to the back point.
Messi stopped the ball when no one was guarding him, then hit again, 2-0!
After changing sides in the second half, in just two minutes, Messi sent a diagonal pass from the right side of the penalty area. The opponent's goalkeeper failed to make a save. Su Dong easily pushed the ball in front of the goal and succeeded in the empty goal, further expanding the score to three to zero!
In the 69th minute, Ronaldinho sent a diagonal pass. Iniesta crossed the ball into the penalty area and was tripped to the ground by the opponent's player. The referee awarded a penalty kick again. Ronaldinho did his part and remained calm.
The penalty hit, four to zero!
In the 82nd minute, Messi sent a direct pass from the right. Su Dong entered the penalty area and pushed the shot in front of the goal, but was saved by the opponent's goalkeeper.
The ball did not fly far and landed on the right side of the penalty area. Messi followed up and calmly stabbed the goal, locking the score at 5-0!
Scored twice!
After Messi scored, he was so excited that he almost went crazy!
He jumped directly on Su Dong's back and let Su Dong carry him across the field, accepting the congratulations of the Barcelona fans in the stands.
No one thought that this Argentine youngster would rise so quickly this season!
Only Messi himself knew that all of this was because Su Dong kept helping him.
From the moment he entered the first team, all of his achievements were inseparable from Su Dong's help!
This always makes him feel like he has nothing to repay!
