Over the weekend, in the 21st round of La Liga, Barcelona challenged Real Mallorca led by Cooper away from home.
In the first half, Messi received an assist from Deco and opened the scoring for Barcelona. However, overall, Barcelona's performance was not ideal and not stable enough. Eto'o created several good scores for Real Mallorca.
Good opportunity.
After changing sides in the second half and fighting again, Rijkaard saw that the team was not successful in attacking for a long time and immediately made substitutions.
Iniesta replaced Van Bommel and Sudong replaced Larsson.
Only two minutes into the game, Su Dong was fouled by the opponent's center defender Tusio during a contest. The referee gave a yellow card. The second yellow card accumulated in the game, Tusio was sent off with a direct red card.
Barcelona took a quick free kick, Ronaldinho passed the ball diagonally into the penalty area, Sudong took the first step, volleyed and sent the ball into the Real Mallorca goal, 2-0!
In the 82nd minute, Su Dong and Messi had a very exquisite cooperation on the right side of the penalty area.
After Su Dong stopped the ball with his back to Messi, he turned around and rushed forward. Messi passed the ball straight to the right side of the penalty area and saw the opportunity to knock back in front of the goal. Su Dong rushed over and took advantage of the situation.

Three to zero!
He came on as a substitute for 20 minutes and scored twice. Su Dong's performance once again aroused the carnival of Barcelona fans and shocked the Spanish media.
This is already his 31st La Liga goal this season!
What’s even more frightening is that this is only the twenty-first round.
In other words, Su Dong's number of goals in La Liga this season is bound to hit a new high.
…
Real Mallorca's head coach Cooper is famous for his feud with Ronaldo. The Argentinian has always been harsh on his players, but this time at the post-match press conference, he expressed his appreciation for Su Dong in a high-profile manner.
"Although it is inappropriate to say this as an opponent, I want to say that you should not be ashamed of losing to Su Dong!"
Cooper said that today's Su Dong is stronger than Ronaldo who he coached back then. "He is the most decisive player in world football today, bar none!"
The Argentinian believes that the presence of Sudong makes Barcelona even more powerful. "I believe that Barcelona will be the most powerful contender for various championships this season."
…
After finishing the league, the matchup map for the Copa del Rey semi-finals has also been released. Barcelona will face Real Madrid.
Playing El Clasico in the Copa del Rey semi-finals is undoubtedly quite eye-catching.
After the coaching change, Real Madrid's recent performance has significantly improved, winning seven games in a row. Acting coach Carlo's coaching is also remarkable, and Barcelona has continued its excellent performance in the first half. Now in
They are unparalleled in the La Liga standings.
Real Madrid's mouthpiece Aspen issued a soul torture in the report: Who can stop Su Dong?
Aspen believes that the creed of Spanish football is offense, and offense is the best defense.
"Barcelona's terrifying offensive power made their opponents forget about offense. Su Dong's presence forced them to put too much energy into defense and forget how to attack."
AS reported that judging from the first round of the Copa del Rey, Zaragoza drew with Barcelona 3-3. One of the important reasons is that they dared to press out and attack Barcelona. This is worth learning from all La Liga teams.
As for freezing Su Dong, this has been proven impossible countless times.
"I don't know since when, the fans' demands on Su Dong have become higher and higher, especially this season, Su Dong's failure to score seems to be proof of the opponent's defensive success, which has become very rare."
Aspen Newspaper believes that after scoring 31 goals in the 21st round of La Liga, Sudong showed surprising combat effectiveness, which also made everyone feel incredible. With Sudong's current scoring status, it has broken the record of that year.
The historical record of 38 goals in La Liga in a single season set by Sala and Sanchez is already a certainty.
In fact, Su Dong almost broke this record last season.
In addition, 31 La Liga goals, eight Champions League goals, five King's Cup goals, not counting the two Super Cups and Club World Cup, Su Dong's number of goals has reached 44
The goal is not far away from the 49 goals in a single season created by Real Madrid legend Puskas.
Aspen was shocked by Su Dong's performance this season and believed that it was Su Dong's amazing performance that drove Barcelona's overall performance.
If you want to stop Barcelona, you must find a way to freeze Su Dong.
But so far, no one has come up with an effective way to freeze Soviet Union.
"He's nearly invincible!"

As if to quote Aspen's remarks, in the 22nd round of La Liga, when Barcelona faced Atletico Madrid at home, Su Dong was absent from the squad for the first time this season.
Rijkaard said at the pre-match press conference that the coaching staff asked Su Dong to rest because he has been fighting continuously since the winter break. His muscles are a little tired and he needs a good rest to be in better condition to face the midweek game.
real Madrid.
This is an alarm raised by Su Dong's personal coaching team.
After detailed comparison and observation, Nuno Cruz and others believe that Su Dong's continuous playing since the winter break has made his muscles very tired and requires a ten-day period of recovery and adjustment.
From the 21st round of La Liga against Real Mallorca to the Copa del Rey semi-final against Real Madrid, it was exactly ten days.
In the middle game against Atletico Madrid, Su Dong still needs to rest.
Rijkaard also accepted this, because Su Dong is one of the players with the most stable attendance and the most playing time in Barcelona this season. Although there have been some rotations in the middle, Su Dong's fatigue is obvious.
Everyone knows that player fatigue can easily lead to injuries.
Therefore, Rijkaard arranged a frontcourt attack combination of Ronaldinho, Larsson and Messi.
But no one expected that Barcelona's home game, which was originally full of confidence, would end up losing 1-2.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Barcelona still has the advantage in possession rate and situation, but Atletico Madrid made two sharp counterattacks in the first half, led by Torres and Maxi Rodriguez.
ball.
Although Iniesta assisted Larsson to get a goal back in the second half, Barcelona's overall offensive threat was not great.
At the critical moment, Rijkaard turned and looked at the bench, but did not find Su Dong.
In the end, Barcelona lost 1-2 at home to Atletico Madrid.
This defeat also made the Catalan media miss Su Dong after the game, thinking that the team had created so many opportunities. If Su Dong was on the court, Atletico Madrid would not dare to be so presumptuous.
Even Atletico Madrid head coach Murcia secretly stated after the game that Barcelona's offensive power lacked a threat in Sudong's absence.
…
Barcelona lost 1-2 at home, but Real Madrid beat Espanyol 4-0 at home.
Veteran Zidane scored twice, Guti and Ronaldo each scored a goal, creating a complete victory at the Bernabeu.
One loss and one win. In addition, in recent times, Real Madrid, under the leadership of new head coach Carlo, has created an eight-game winning streak, and the limelight is also positive. This makes everyone look forward to the first leg of the next Copa del Rey semi-finals.
looking forward.
Since Ronaldinho will be suspended due to the previous red card, and Sudong will miss the game against Atletico Madrid due to muscle fatigue, many people have speculated that Barcelona will face the in-form Real Madrid at home this time.
More bad luck than good.
Maybe even suffer a home defeat.

…………
On the evening of February 8th, Camp Nou.
In the first leg of the Copa del Rey semi-finals, Barcelona faced Real Madrid at home.
As expected by the outside world, the two teams immediately played at a fast pace from the beginning of the game.
Real Madrid has been in good form recently, taking the lead from the start and frequently creating threats. Barcelona, on the other hand, seeks stability at the start and is at a disadvantage on the field.
Real Madrid's frontcourt offensive combination is not much different, the biggest difference comes from the defense.
Cicinho, who has been in excellent form recently, takes a rest and is replaced by veteran Salgado. Helguera partners with Ramos, who has just returned from injury. The left back is still Carlos.
Carlo's arrangement obviously also hopes for stability in the away game. After all, Cicinho has just arrived, and Salgado is a veteran who has been famous for many years and has more experience.
But facts have also proven that this defense, which has rarely been paired up recently, did not play well at the Camp Nou, and problems were quickly exposed.
…
After the fast-paced attack in the opening ten minutes, Real Madrid players were surprised to find that it was difficult for them to control the rhythm, whether it was Guti or Gravesson, or Baptista and Beckham.
None of them are experts in this area.
Barcelona is just waiting for Real Madrid to take the initiative to expose problems at a fast pace.
After stealing the ball on the right, Iniesta pulled to the wing to receive Belletti's pass and sent a pass along the right sideline.
Messi broke free from Carlos' entanglement, got the ball first, drove straight in, and dribbled the ball into the right side of the penalty area.
Before Gravesen fell to the ground and tackled, Messi passed the ball back.
Facing Herguera, Su Dong stopped the ball with the outside instep of his right foot. He took a step back lightly and volleyed with his right foot. The ball went straight into the Real Madrid goal with lightning speed, and it was one to zero!
The goal ignited a frenzied atmosphere at Camp Nou.
If the first goal conceded was an accident, then not long after, the second goal conceded completely exposed Real Madrid's problems.
It was still Barcelona's right wing, and the combination of Iniesta, Messi and Belletti created a chance for a throw-in.
Belletti ran to the sidelines, quickly took the throw-in, and threw the ball directly into the penalty area.
Su Dong quickly moved between Carlos and Helguera to the right side of the penalty area. After catching up with the football, he dunked the ball back and directly past Helguera who was returning to defense. He blocked Carlos with his back and used his right foot.
Take advantage of the situation and shoot.
The ball went straight into Real Madrid's goal again, two to zero!
Casillas was completely angered this time. He yelled at his teammates and asked them what was going on?
Why was Barcelona's counterattack kicked like this?
It was only at this moment that everyone began to realize clearly that the trend of the game did not seem to go as the outside world had expected. Real Madrid was not evenly matched with Barcelona, but there seemed to be signs of collapse.
Just over 20 minutes into the game, Real Madrid already lost 0-2.
