Chapter 149 Second Round against Barcelona

After defeating Sion, Lin Fenglei led the team back to Gosau, where they waited for Barcelona's door-to-door challenge.

On April 27, the Barcelona team flew to Gosau. As soon as he got off the plane, Guardiola was interviewed by a large number of reporters. Guardiola walked outside the airport and kept saying, "No comment." No matter what questions the reporter asked, he refused to answer.

Other people in Barcelona, including their players, refused to answer the reporter's questions because Guardiola gave them a silence this time.

The bold words of the Barcelona players before the last round of the game have now become a laughing stock for the fans. Messi scored more goals than Egman. As a result, Egman only scored one goal, but not much, but Messi did not score a goal and brushed a zero egg. Pike said that he wanted to kill Egman and let him He couldn't score a single goal, but Egman still scored a winning goal under his best defense and had an assist. If Pike hadn't been for the referee's mercy, he would have been sent off long ago.

The Barcelona players didn't look very well, especially Messi and Pick. Their faces were even more gloomy as if they were dripping water. They kept shaking their heads and opened the microphone handed over by the reporter.

Out of the airport, he got on the bus to the hotel, and Guardiola said nothing. The players were on the bus and were hurrying to sleep, but he was not sleepy and was still thinking about something.

In the Spanish national derby held the day after, Guardiola had hoped to successfully win Real Madrid with the advantage of home court and surpassed their opponents to reach the top of the La Liga table. Unexpectedly, they were at a loss against their old opponent Mourinho again. They were attacked by Cristiano Ronaldo in the first half until At the end of the second half, Villa equalized the score.

At the last moment, the Barcelona players tried their best and failed to score another goal. They had no choice but to swallow the bitter fruit of the old opponent at home, still one point behind Real Madrid in the standings.

One point, it usually looks so inconspicuous, but now that the whole season is coming to an end, it is like a chasm in front of the Barcelona team. In the last rounds of La Liga, there was no strong team in Real Madrid's opponents. The strongest opponent was Sevilla. That game was held at the Bernabeu Stadium. Guardiola did not expect them to overturn Real Madrid. Judging from the winning rate of Real Madrid against other La Liga teams this season, Barcelona has basically no hope of catching up with Real Madrid.

Thinking of this, Guardiola felt bitter in his mouth. The hope of winning the league championship this season is extremely slim. The situation is not good in the Champions League. He lost to Gosau at home. Now he comes to the away game to challenge Goshao. His men are still a group of tired players in continuous battles, and the main ball of Goshao is There was not a starter in the last round of the league. They nourished their energy and waited for work. Can they really lead these tired soldiers to stage a great reversal? Guardiola felt that there was nothing in her heart.

Maybe at the end of this season, the only championship I can compete for is the King's Cup, right? Although the status of the King's Cup is also very important in Spain, Guardiola is not satisfied with winning a King's Cup. Looking back on the season when I won the six championships, it is still vivid, as if it was yesterday. Why did Barcelona fall into today's situation so quickly?

When they arrived at the hotel, Guardiola and the assistant coaches rushed the players to their respective rooms and asked them to take time to rest and recover as much physical strength as possible. Then, Guardiola picked up his mood and studied the tactics against Gosho in the second round with the coaches. Even if there is only one percent hope, they have to make 100% efforts.

Compared with the bleak clouds in Barcelona, the atmosphere in the Gosho team is very good, and the morale of the players is very high. Recently, the team has been winning streak and the injured are returning. Lin Fenglei has also made a promise that if he can win two consecutive championships in the Champions League this season, he will also play for the ball. The staff raise the salary level.

Lin Fenglei's promise makes the players very excited. After all, the players play football to make money. Of course, it's good to stay in the Gosau team. Play happily here and win the championship, but if you don't get a good income, I don't think many good players will stay here.

Fortunately, they met such a generous boss as Lin Fenglei. Unlike some stingy bosses, he won the Champions League and began to sell high-paying players. They completely regarded the players as a tool to make money. Lin Fenglei's salary for the players is very good now. It is close to the level of the upstream teams of the five major leagues. When the salary is increased again, it can be equal to most rich teams. So why not stay here for a lifetime?

Stimulated by the good news, the morale of the players of the Gosho team has reached its peak. They are rubbing their hands one by one and can't wait to play the game immediately, and quickly cut Barcelona down.

Lima said regretfully, "Ivanovic was lucky and came back in time. Unfortunately, my injury hasn't healed yet, otherwise I would have played Barcelona.

His teammates comforted him, "It's okay. You can watch us kill Barcelona. It's not too late for you to participate in the Champions League final next time."

Lima's injury will be healed in about ten days, and if Gosho can reach the Champions League final, this year's final will be held on May 24, so Lima can fully catch up.

Lima calculated the days and said seriously, "Then you must kill Barcelona so that I can have a chance to play the finals, otherwise I won't let you go."

Lima's words made everyone laugh.

With everyone's expectation, on April 29, the second leg of the Champions League semi-final match between Gosau and Barcelona finally started as scheduled at Gosau's home stadium.

The media seats at the Wind and Thunder Stadium are already full of media reporters and broadcast groups from all over the world. Of course, there are also broadcasters from CCTV. CCTV's football commentator Duan Xuan is introducing the starting lineup of both sides of the game to the fans in front of the TV: "The starting players of the home team Gosho team in this game are goalkeeper Checarelli, left-back Ribeiro, right-back Gugelman, central defender are Salihovic and Chevali, and the double midfielders are Antunović and Ivan. Norwich's 'double' combination, left winger is Avanzini, right winger Horensten, and strikers are Egman and Kadingho. Today, Gosho's starting lineup has only changed one player compared with the first round, that is, Ivanovic, who has recovered from injury, replaced Sampedero. Ivanovic's timely comeback also enhances the thickness and organizational ability of the midfield, which is very important for the Gosho team.

"The starting lineup of the visiting team Barcelona is also different from the first round. Their goalkeeper is Pinto, left-back Alba, right-back Alvis, central defender is Pic and Mascherano, and the midfielder is Fabregas, Harvey, Iniesta and Song, two formers. The front is Messi and Villa. Today, compared with the first round, their starting lineup changed two people, and a central defender was replaced on the guard line. In the first round, Mascherano had some minor injuries and failed to play. The starting central defender was Baltra. In this game, Mascherano also made a comeback, and his comeback also strengthened Barcelona. Strength on the defense line. In this game, Guardiola reduced one player on the front line and added a midfielder player in the midfield - Song, who is an excellent defensive midfielder.

"Judging from Barcelona's starting lineup, Guardiola still wants to gain a foothold on defense in the away game, ensure that he will not lose the ball first, and then consider scoring. After all, this is Gosho's home court. Gosho's unbeaten record in Europe is still very frightening. Their offensive power at home is particularly strong."

"The German on duty referee Stark blew the whistle and the game began!"
