Chapter 369 The Gap
Chapter 369 The Gap
There was a huge cheer at the Nou Camp after Ronaldinho used his genius to give Barcelona a good attacking chance.
Barcelona fans are full of confidence in winning this game.
Even the fans of Werder Bremen were stunned by Ronaldinho's performance just now.
A person can play the ball to such an extent... that is really unimaginable!
The Werder Bremen players were also affected by this atmosphere.
So when it was Werder Bremen's turn to attack, their attack was far less threatening than Barcelona's attack just now.
Miku wanted to pass the football to a threatening place, but he couldn't find a suitable space.
In the end, because he had the ball for too long, his ball was cut off by Portuguese midfielder Deco.
Then Barcelona launched another attack.
Football was quickly passed to Ronaldinho's feet.
Ronaldinho dribbles the ball forward!
He had been participating in the attack just now, waiting for his teammates to pass the ball to Rong Guang, and when he saw this, he turned around and ran back.
Use his speed to actively participate in defense.
He hasn't had a chance to perform in offense yet, so he can only work hard in defense.
He went after Ronaldinho.
"Rong's speed is very fast, he is returning to defense!"
Seeing that Rongguang had returned to defense, the German commentator felt a little more at ease.
But just when Rongguang was about to catch up with Ronaldinho, Ronaldinho sent the football out.
So Rong Guang made a trip for nothing!
After passing the ball, Ronaldinho ran to the space, Rong Guang was stunned for a moment.
He looked at football, then looked at Ronaldinho, not sure who he should follow - he is a striker, not good at defense, so Schaaf does not arrange his defensive tasks in normal games, generally speaking, defense does not need glory.
So Rongguang is now in trouble.
In the end, he chose to follow Ronaldinho.
But Ronaldinho doesn't have the ball.
Although Ronaldinho is talented, he is not the only star in Barcelona.
For the giants Barcelona, their lineup is full of superstars who can dominate the results of the game.
Rong Guang followed Ronaldinho.
Barcelona passed football to Deco.
The Portuguese midfield reorganized the attack and after a series of beautiful short passes back and forth, the ball fell to Eto'o's feet.
Eto'o was at the front of the penalty area, facing Werder Bremen's defense, without any fake moves, just forced a breakthrough.Using his speed and skill, he wiped out Werder Bremen's central defender Ismail and just squeezed in!
"Eto'o! He's in the box!"
In the exclamation of the commentator, Werder Bremen goalkeeper Reinke abandoned the goal and attacked.
In the Bundesliga, the old goalkeeper Reinke is still a relatively good goalkeeper, but in the Champions League, facing the best strikers in Europe, he seems a little powerless...
In front of Eto'o, Reinke was obviously half a beat slower!
Eto'o passed Ismail, and then caught up with the football. Before Reinke blocked the shot angle, he stretched out his foot and poked it!
Reinke fell to the ground and blocked the shot.
The football ran forward quickly with the turf, and rolled into the goal before it was blocked by Reinke's body!
In the 7th minute, the home team Barcelona took the lead!
Since the start of the game, the cheers that have been echoing over the Camp Nou suddenly increased at this time.
"E-to-o--!!!" The Catalan commentator shouted with a long voice. "We took the lead at home within 10 minutes of the game! This is the gap! This is the gap in strength! See, German? We are completely different from the defending champion who got lucky!"
In the last game, Werder Bremen scored a goal for the defending champion less than 3 minutes into the game. After the game, many media blew Werder Bremen into the sky, thinking that they will replace Porto and compete with Barcelona in this group.And after the end of the two group matches, Werder Bremen did overwhelm Barcelona in the rankings, ranking first, which seems to provide evidence for that statement.
※※※
When Ronaldinho saw the team score a goal, he first glanced back at Rong Guang who was next to him. He spread his hands to Rong Guang and grinned.
Then he turned and ran to celebrate with his teammates.
Leaving Rong Guang standing where he was, staring blankly at his running away figure.
Depend on!
He clenched his fists hard.
※※※
Barcelona's goal seemed to justify the pre-match optimism for the hosts.
Even if Werder Bremen beat Porto in the first round of the group stage, it can only show that the defending champion is too weak.
After the start of the game, Barcelona used their good possession to control the tempo, and they deliberately slowed down the tempo of the game.
Werder Bremen are good at attacking with speed and Barcelona know how to deal with them.
So 10 minutes passed, and there were not many opportunities for Rongguang to get it.
Rijkaard specially sent someone to deal with Rong Guang, Puyol who has the title of "mad dog".
The 26-year-old central defender has excellent physical strength, is not slow, and has a tenacious style. He is very suitable to deal with a player like Rong Guang who is fast but not particularly experienced-this is everyone's opinion.
At No. 204 minutes in the first half, Rong Guang finally got his best chance so far in the game!
At that time, Barcelona was attacking, and Rong Guang also retreated with his teammates-he wanted to stay in the frontcourt all the time, it would be better if there was no offside rule...
As a result, Barcelona's attack was not successful, and Werder Bremen broke the ball halfway through.
Bowman steals the ball, then gives the football to Micoud.
Miku sent the football up again, and the ball fell to Rongguang's feet.
Because Rongguang retreated, when he received the ball, Puyol was not around, and he and other Barcelona players distanced themselves.
After receiving the ball, he can turn around and adjust calmly without interference.
Just like that, he turned around.
In front of him was Barcelona's back line, and... a huge space behind them!
This is simply prepared for glory!
He wades the football out.
The Barcelona players also reflected at this time. Puyol did not rush directly to block Rongguang. He knew very well that with Rongguang's speed, he was going to meet him at this time, which was the rhythm of being ruthlessly passed by him.
So he immediately turned around and ran, retreating.
As for glory, leave it to your teammates in the midfield...
Deco is chasing back at high speed.
※※※
For more than 20 minutes, Rongguang almost failed to show a good performance, and even let Barcelona take the lead.He held back his anger and didn't start, and now he finally had such a chance.
Rong Guang picked up his speed after only two football trips.
Puyol was retreating, and he was chasing Puyol.
Rong Guang could see that Puyol was in charge of marking him in this game, so what he had to do now was to tell Rijkaard that it was impossible for him to stop him!
On the third pass, he was already close to Puyol.
"This is Rong's attack! He's coming—" Marcel Leif raised his arms and shouted. As a German commentator, he naturally hoped that the German team would win.
The Werder Bremen fans in the Camp Nou stands gave out long-lost cheers. Of course, their cheers were quickly drowned out by the boos of Barcelona fans ten times their size.
※※※
Puyol didn't really turn around and run, it was an escape, not a retreat.While running backwards, he turned his head to look at Rong Guang.
When he discovered that Rong Guang was chasing him with a football, he realized that he could no longer retreat.
So he turned around, slowed down, faced the glory, and retreated while fighting.The defensive strategy is still mainly to delay time, give teammates time to return to defense, and encircle Rongguang.
But Puyol did not give up the opportunity to stop Rongguang head-on.
He lowered his center of gravity and speed, and fixed his eyes on Rongguang's ball. If Rongguang wants to break through him, try to stop it!
Everyone is looking at Puyol, he has quickly regressed to the 30-meter area, behind him is an empty space, and behind him is the team's main goalkeeper Valdez.
If Puyol can't stop the glory here, then Valdez's goal will be in danger...
Rijkaard stood on the sidelines, also nervously staring at Puyol and Rong Guang.
The distance between the two is rapidly shortening.
※※※
Rong Guang knew why Puyol did this, so he wouldn't give him this chance!
When running with the ball, he didn't even make a fake move. He was five or six meters away from Puyol, and he directly threw the football out for more than ten meters!
At the same time, he accelerated his efforts and rushed past Puyol!
Puyol still wanted to fight Rong Guang, but he was never given such a chance!
When Rong Guang rushed past Puyol, Puyol didn't even turn around - he was completely caught off guard!
"Rong - rushed over!!"
Rijkaard on the sidelines bit his lip tightly, his brows twisted into a rope.
Rongguang's extraordinary technique has no technical content at all, but it is such a simple and crude method, but it is surprisingly easy to use!
※※※
Valdez chose to abandon the goal and attack almost at the moment when Rong Guang threw the football out.
It turns out he was right.
Because of his first step, he rushed to the front of football a little earlier than Rongguang!
But in this way, he still can't use his hands to block the football. In order to make the speed faster, he has to choose to use his feet to defend.
For a goalkeeper, this means that there is no backup, if it does not succeed, it fails!
Two people reach out to kick the football at the same time.
Valdez's foot kicked the football half a second early, and the football thrown out by Rongguang gave him a shovel and kicked it back again!
But Rong Guang didn't hold back his foot, and the tip of his toe hit the shin guard facing the bone of Valdez's calf.
During the high-speed running, Rong Guang couldn't stop at all, and was thrown forward by the inertia. His body even turned 180 degrees in the air, and he was directly on his back, hitting the ground!
Splashing grass clippings all over the sky!
