Henry had no choice but to pass the football back.
Harvey came over to help!
He did not stop the ball at all. He just flicked his ankle!
The football crossed Inter Milan's defensive line, and then people saw Messi appear at the football's landing point.
"Beautiful, this is tacit understanding!"
"This is Barcelona's offense, it's very pleasing to the eye!" Catalonia's commentator shouted proudly.
When Messi stopped the ball, the tip of his foot poked slightly, and the football rolled past Samuels, who rushed up to defend.
Then Messi twisted his waist, let Samuels pass, and rushed up!
"Beautiful!"
"Messi! Messi! He's Barcelona's outstanding player this season! He's Barcelona's future! "
*****
Li Ang also frowned on the sidelines. Messi was indeed worthy of his name. In such a narrow space, his little skills were amazing. If one were to say who was the best at dodging and moving in a narrow space, Li Ang would say this Argentine player!
However, Messi's path forward stopped there.
He wanted to continue dribbling the ball, but found that he had encountered an interception!
Carlos appeared diagonally in front of him. Carlos did not press forward. He just blocked his passing route to avoid being tackled by Messi at the same time.
The football was at Messi's feet. The Argentine star player stepped on the bicycle several times in a row, but he had to admit that it was not easy to get past the Spanish national footballer. Carlos was very steady.
Since he could not get past him, he would force his way through!
His body leaned to the left, and then he suddenly turned around and pretended to rush forward. When he tricked Carlos into swinging his center of gravity over, he suddenly pulled the football back and dodged!
Space!
Messi saw the space to pass the ball. He flicked his ankle and was about to pass the football out!
In his line of sight, Eto'o had already begun to move. As long as the ball was passed over, with the strength of the Cameroonian, it was very likely that he would get a chance to shoot!
However, in the next second, a foot appeared in Messi's sight!
*****
Bang!
A muffled sound was heard!
The football went out of the end line!
"Carlos! Carlos! He blocked the football when he lost his center of gravity! "
"Beautiful! Messi's footwork is excellent, but he still couldn't beat Carlos in the end! "
Beautiful!
On the sidelines, Li Ang waved his fist and cheered for Carlos's successful defense.
Barcelona gets a corner kick!
Rijkaard shook his body regretfully. If only the ball had gone in!
Rijkaard had a clearer understanding of the corner kick that the team had obtained.
Barcelona had never been a team that was good at using corner kicks to score goals, especially against Inter Milan, a team that was good at defending against high flying balls.
Barcelona's corner kick was driven into the penalty area. The football was headed out of the end line by Samuels. Barcelona continued to have a corner kick on the other side!
*****
"Barcelona has consecutively gotten corner kicks! In a situation where they can't achieve a breakthrough in mobile warfare, this is their chance! "
On this side of the corner kick, this time, Barcelona did not choose to lob the football into the penalty area. Instead, they played a short corner kick tactic.
After a few passes, the football arrived at Henry's feet. He saw a passing route. However, when he decided to do so.
He found that he could not pass the football directly over.
Because Evra was stuck between him and Harvey, and also had to take care of Zambrotta, who came over from the side to support.
If he passed the ball directly, there was a high chance that the ball would be intercepted by Evra.
In the end, Henry looked at the penalty area. He suddenly had an idea and passed the ball.
The football was passed in!
However, Inter Milan seemed to be prepared for this. Chivu got in front of Eto 'o and headed the football out.
Not only did he successfully defend against Barcelona's attack, but after the ball was headed out, it was received by Montari. He passed it to Carlos!
Yayaturay pounced on Carlos. The two men squeezed together, but Carlos protected the football and passed it out!
*****
"Counterattack! This is Inter Milan's chance to fight back! "
Montari, who received the pass from Carlos, directly passed the football forward. Mata retreated to support. Now, Barcelona's side was empty. As long as Mata stopped the ball and turned around, he would be able to get a good space to gallop!
In desperation, Marcos, who came over to fill in, could only reach out and pull Mata down.
Beep!
The referee's whistle sounded. He showed a yellow card to Marcos, who had fouled.
Li Ang applauded on the sidelines and cheered for the team's successful defense. Although the counterattack was not successful because of the opponent's foul, the defense was done well this time and the counterattack tactic was also played.
"Your prediction is very accurate!" Banderas came over and said. When the tactics were deployed before the game, Li Ang particularly emphasized that Barcelona's players liked the kind of delicate little pass. This kind of pass was very sudden, very hidden, and very threatening. It required the whole team to pay special attention. Sure enough, Henry played such a trick just now. Fortunately, Chivu was alert.
Li Ang smiled. He was very familiar with this Barcelona team and the future Barcelona team.
Rijkaard waved his hand with some disappointment. The team made a fuss on the flank, but it seemed that Inter Milan had a plan for this. Not only did it not succeed, but Inter Milan almost counterattacked.
Although the counterattack was stopped by Marcus this time, Marcus also received a yellow card. It could be said that he had paid a hefty price for it.
Now, Zambrotta and Marcos each had a yellow card. The first half of the game was not over yet and two players were yellow. This would obviously be a hidden danger for Barcelona in the second half of the game.
*****
Later, Barcelona continued to try to make a fuss on the flank. However, in the face of Inter Milan's organized chain defense, they found it difficult to get any chances.
Rijkaard returned to the technical area and sat down. He knew that the team was in trouble.
If they attacked in the middle, it would be difficult to get any breakthrough in the face of Carlos, who was in an unexpectedly good state. If they played on the flank, it was obvious that Rijkaard also saw that Li Ang was prepared for this. Whether it was the ground ball or the air ball, they responded well.
Although Inter Milan seemed to be more inclined to offensive tactics, their defense was still not affected. On the contrary, their defense was very resilient and flexible. It was difficult to break through!
For a moment, Rijkaard had to helplessly find that Barcelona's powerful offensive group, which he was very confident in, was actually in a situation where they did not know how to attack!
He had to admit that Li Ang had built Inter Milan very well. There were almost no shortcomings.
No, there must be shortcomings and shortcomings. It's just that I haven't grasped them, Rijkaard said to himself.
At this time, Li Ang got up from the technical area. He took advantage of a dead ball to call the team captain, Javier Zanetti, to the sidelines and whispered to him.
Rijkaard saw all this and his heart skipped a beat. What kind of conspiracy is that guy up to?!
