Chapter 100 Messi VS Degan

In the locker room of the home team of Camp Nou, Messi was quietly tidying up his equipment in the corner. He looked very calm, but he kept tidying up the leg pads, which still exposed his heart.

Iniesta saw something, came over, pressed Messi's shoulder with one hand, and said with concern, "Leon! How do you feel!?

In the Barcelona team, almost everyone likes this little brother. My brother is quiet, modest and a little shy. The most important thing is his outstanding ball skills. When Ronaldinho became more and more indulgent, this little Argentine stood up as if he had become the new core of Barcelona.

Messi smiled: "Me? I'm fine!"

Iniesta sat next to Messi: "Leon! You know what Degan said, don't you? Don't you feel the atmosphere at all and don't want to fight back against his disregard?

Messi lowered his head and hesitated for a moment before shaking his head and said, "No! I don't want to, even if I want to talk, I have to wait until the game is over. There's nothing to say now!"

The name Degan represents too much for Messi. He will never forget the scene when his beloved Barcelona was destroyed by Degan alone in Camp Nou two years ago, the helpless eyes of his brother Ronaldinho after his failure, and the sentence: "One day you will defeat him!"

At that time, Messi was just a nobody sitting on the sidelines. He was not even qualified to participate in that kind of important game. He could only watch and do nothing.

Now Messi has met Degan again, but the original AC Milan has become the current Florence.

Although he has become the core now, Messi is very clear that his achievement is far from Degan.

The third place in the world's footballer. At the beginning, Degan also stood in this position. Messi felt honored, but Degan seemed disdainful.

"That Brazilian is awesome!" Iniesta said something unintentionally.

This sentence seems to touch a nerve of Messi: "The most powerful Brazilian is Ronaldinho!"

Iniesta smiled and smiled helplessly. He knew very well that Messi was very angry about the abandonment of Ronaldinho, but if Ronaldinho stood on the court forever, Messi could only sit on the bench and be a little brother watching the big brothers play football.

Barcelona VS Florence, Argentina VS Brazil, or directly Messi VS Degan!

Although Messi seems very low-key, this is a tone set for this game.

In the world of football, Brazil and Argentina represented by Digan and Messi are always unavoidable topics. Just like the beginning and now, the war between Bailey and Maradona, which has always been entangled in the future, is the epitome of the football relationship between the two countries. Almost everyone knows that this is the two best in the world. The team.

In many cases, the bicker between Bailey and Maradona can often be regarded as a slightly childish act between two adults. The two have never met in history, and there is no historical hatred between the two countries. This is more like Guan Gong's battle with Qin Qiong in Hou Baolin's crosstalk, or the two children who are more powerful for the Monkey King or Xingya after watching Dragon Ball and Saint Seiya, and finally compete with each other.

In history, Brazil and Argentina have played 94 games, Brazil won 37 games, Argentina won 34 games, and 23 draws. Only three games behind in the nearly 100 games can be regarded as incompetitive.

In the eyes of people in these two countries, their teams are the two best teams in the world. Therefore, as long as they defeat each other, they are the best in the world, and the loser means the second. As for other teams, they have been classified to a lower level.

There is a deeper explanation for the hatred between the two countries in football. Also from the slums, Brazilians prefer to get happiness through football. The book Football: Brazilian Lifestyle, which describes Brazilian football, once introduced, "I got the ball, you grab it, I teased you and made you look funny. This is the root of Brazilian football." This is the opposite of Argentine football. In Argentina, football is a civilian revolution and a means of revenge.

Bailey and Maradona's careers illustrate this point. Bailey is famous for scoring a lot of goals. He has scored 1281 goals in 1363 official games. Goals are the source of Bailey's happiness. He has no restrained in this. May I ask any other player besides Bailey who is willing to tirelessly compare a single game. 8 goals scored by the opponent?

Maradona is a famous football fighter. During the most glorious period of his career, he chose the weakest Naples club in Serie A and led the team against the traditional northern powers of Serie A almost with one person and won the Serie A championship twice. At that time, his opponents in the league were AC Milan's "Dutch Three Musketeers" and Inter Milan's "German Troika", which almost used one person to fight against a country.

The feud between Bailey and Maradona took place in the 12th World Cup in 1982, when the fledgling Maradona was sent off for knocking down a Brazilian defender. Pele, a Brazilian, mocked Maradona for this, saying that he had made a mistake he had made as a child.

Pele said that he was taught a lesson by his father off the court because of his small movements on the court when he was a child. Bailey's words obviously had a sense of ridicule and ridicule of Maradona, which also laid the ground for a war of saliva between the two in the future.

At the dawn of the 21st century, FIFA decided to make a selection of "Best Player of the 20th Century". According to relevant reports at that time, the original selection results should have been generated by fans around the world voting on the FIFA website, but because Maradona won much more votes than Pele, this result made FIFA senior officials feel very embarrassed and uneasy.

Because Maradona had been exposed to many scandals in the media at that time, some people strongly opposed the election of Maradona, who was the "best of the century".

In the end, FIFA officials had to come up with a two-pronged strategy and decided to select one of the best FIFA players and set up another online best, which made Maradona extremely dissatisfied.

The expert voted Bailey to win, while Maradona took the lead in the popular election. Maradona, who got the "best on the Internet", was naturally deeply unhappy. After that, the two began to have a bad relationship and kept talking.

When people gradually began to get tired of the endless quarrel between the two uncles, they seemed to find successors, Degan and Messi. Although Degan chose to wear Belgian red robes, his Brazilian bloodline was undeniable.

So before this game, Bailey said: "Digan is the best player in the world!"

Maradona said more simply: "Messi will make Degan cry in Camp Nou!"

Messi doesn't want to be involved so much, but sometimes he can only feel helpless in his position.

Standing at the entrance of the player's passage, looking at the tsunami fans in the stands, they kept shouting in unison: "Barsa! Barcelona!"

Although such scenes have been experienced many times, every time Messi stands in this position, he still feels the blood burning in his body.

Or remember that when he first came to the city, he was just a pitiful dwarf, but now he has gradually grown into a giant.

From the silent neighborhood of Rosario, Argentina, to the giant stadium in Barcelona, Spain, what power has changed him?

The world is very cruel. Years of drug injection have made him miserable. He doesn't even know whether his football dream can be realized. The world is ideal. Over the years, a positive determination to move forward has made him laugh proudly all the way.

Argentina is the kingdom of football, also known as the country of silver, which is the hometown of Gao Qiao and Tango and a paradise for the hearts of South Americans, but in reality, in more cases, it is very ordinary, especially in other provinces, and many resources are concentrated in Buenos Aires.

When you drive out of Buenos Aires, you will soon arrive at Rosario, the capital of Santa Fe Province, which is Messi's hometown. There are the famous A team Newells Old Boys and Rosario Central, but since Messi was found, there has been no more waves on the court.

For the whole Rosario people, a Messi is enough!

Many years ago, Aparicio, a star who participated in the 1970 World Cup, must have felt that the sky was particularly blue and the sun was beautiful, at least in his memory, when he carefully looked at Messi's playing in the Grandori neighborhood for the first time.

Aparicio is born and grew up here and has long been dying. It can be called the "living fossil" of the city.

"I found a child bumping the ball against the wall of the stand." He was looking for someone to participate in a five-year-old's friendly match, and he saw Messi.

A small place is an acquaintance society. Soon, Aparicio found that he knew Messi's family. Messi's house was only a few stops away from the club, and Aparicio even taught Messi's two brothers to play football.

"Can I take your little son to play football?"

"No, no, he can't play football. He's too young." In the face of Aparicio's request, Messi's mother, Celia, immediately refused.

"Why don't you go? Let him play, at least it won't hurt." Grandma, who loves football, expressed the opposite view.

In this way, with the support of grandma, only five-year-old Messi took the first step of professional football.

"I put Messi on the right side so that once he cries or feels uncomfortable, you can find it nearby." The kind coach, in order to reassure Messi to make such a decision, who would have thought that Messi's style and position on the court had been determined and did not change until two years ago.

The legend of Messi was born on this day.

At that time, Messi, nicknamed "Shorty", was recruited to the Newells Old Boys Club, one of Rosario's two clubs. At first glance, this club is not eye-catching, and the infrastructure is very ordinary. The club has only two courts for young players. However, this club is still very influential. It is the football club that has sent the most players to the Argentine national team so far.

Messi's body is also a little similar to the style of this club. He is short and thin, and not many people think he is expected to eventually become a professional player, but he is really too good.

But at the age of ten, the "little flea" is still only 1.25 meters tall, 10 centimeters shorter than the average level of its peers. Everyone thinks that he is still young and may catch up with him one day.

For the management of Newells Club, Messi's shortness doesn't seem to matter. During the intermission of the professional team game, Messi will also come out to perform.

The program is the same. Messi bounced the ball to the player channel of the Crosau Stadium, then went to the steps to the court, and finally came to the middle circle. Constantly showing his fancy ball skills and excellent balance ability. In the stands, the fans thought that the dwarfs of the circus were coming, because their skills were so skillful that they didn't expect to be just a ten-year-old child.

But Messi's height remained unchanged, and everyone was finally worried. So, the Newells Club asked Messi and her family to go to the hospital for an examination.

The doctors were very cautious. After discussion, they reached an agreement and formulated a year-long series of test plans to decide which treatment to take.

The doctor recalled: "His growth hormone secretion is insufficient, and he needs to inject biosynthesized growth hormone to compensate."

At the age of 11, Messi began to receive drug injection treatment. He had to inject himself every day. It was difficult to give himself an injection, and it was even more difficult to give himself an injection every day, but little Messi did not say anything, but quickly adapted to this life.

Messi later said, "For me, getting an injection is like brushing my teeth. At first, people were always curious to see me doing this, and then everyone got used to it. I don't think it's difficult, because it's very important for my future, and it's related to football. I have to take responsibility."

But there are some problems that Messi's bravery can't solve, that is, money. The monthly cost is about $1,000 to 1,500. In the first two years, the cost of treatment came from Messi's father Jorci's social insurance and mutual insurance, but then the Argentine economy began to deteriorate rapidly and collapsed a few months later. Plate. It is completely conceivable that if there is no economic crisis, the Messi family may not have gone to Barcelona in search of opportunities.

According to Messi's father, the economic crisis and the Newells Club's armistication forced him to take his son to Barcelona.

"I supported Messi's treatment costs for two years with my own insurance and foundation subsidies, but the economic crisis came, and I had to support four children with my own salary. It was too difficult. At the beginning of the treatment, the Newells Club promised very well and said it would help, but it became empty words. We had no choice but I can go out."

Messi knows a lot about the Camp Nou neighborhood, and his fate has been closely linked to Catalonia since the day he came here.

Joseph used to be Cruyff's agent and the top agent of Barcelona. He brought Messi to Barcelona: "I rarely recommend such a young player to Barcelona, but my Argentine counterpart kept telling me that he was a genius. Later, I also firmly believed it and turned around and pestered Barcelona. Managers, let them arrange trial training.

The technical director of Barcelona at that time recalled: "We soon found that Messi had great potential. This thin child played very well and was much faster than others. I said to myself, 'We need him and we must leave this genius'."

It was from that moment that Messi officially took the first step of being a professional player. Now many years later, Messi has gradually grown from a dwarf to a football giant.

Some people define Messi as innate and does not need to forge, but Messi's teammates said that this is not the case. As he gets older, Messi becomes more and more keen to think. After every game, he will watch the video with his brother to discuss whether it is too early to start, whether there can be other shooting angles, and whether it can be alternative. Deal with it.

This is an important psychological change, that is, the temperament of the leader is emerging, and Messi wants to take on greater and more important responsibilities for the team.

Once upon a time, who was the new generation of ball kings after Pele and Maradona? Is it Digan, Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo? No one can give an answer.

In terms of efficiency, on-court role and even the championship trophy and personal honor, Degan is obviously much ahead, but Messi is catching up.

Messy is modest and low-key, and Degan is arrogant and high-profile. Although objectively speaking, Messi's personality may be more pleasing to most people, Degan's personality has also won him a lot of fans. It can be said that the confrontation between the two is a conflict between two different values.

Basically, Degan has the character of a natural winner. In his eyes, victory is far more important than anything else. On the field, what he is most concerned about is the final result. In order to win, he can drag a broken leg to fight desperately in the World Cup. In order to score goals, he can not hesitate to be hit on the head by the goalpost, which is enough to see Degan's desire for victory.

In the World Cup final, when Degan witnessed Belgium lose the game on the stretcher, his cold eyes and tears were regarded as weakness by those who hated him, but this just showed Degan's desire for victory and his sense of responsibility to the team.

Compared with Degan's competitive personality, Messi's modesty and low-key comes from his innocent love for football. In Messi's heart, it is happy to play. Therefore, even in those irrelevant games, Messi will take the initiative to apply to play. He will not be like some players because he is afraid of injury or Waste physical energy to refuse some unimportant games. As long as they are on the field, the little flea is enjoying football.

The simple desire for football, the pure enjoyment of playing football, and the pleasure of cooperating with teammates are clearly visible in the small flea.

Because of this, he rarely hears rumors about Messi's transfer, because he and outsiders know that he can enjoy the purest and most beautiful football in Barcelona.

Digan was born for victory and Messi was born for football. Different values have created different ways of performance on the field, but everything is the same, and these two personalities make them work as hard as usual.

Digan once ran to the training ground to practice when he was in a traffic jam, while Messi had the experience of disobeying the order to rest after commercial activities and still practice his physical fitness, which directly created the two sports skills beyond ordinary people.

Messi knows what kind of strong enemy he will encounter today, which is a powerful opponent who defeated his idol Ronaldinho, but Messi is also confident in himself. He firmly believes that nothing can stop him. Whether it is an opponent, environment or injury, he always believes that he will eventually become a transcendent. The existence of rules.

After the start of this season, as Ricard gradually began to put him in the main position, Messi felt better and better. He scored so easily, his state was so stable that his fragile body was once regarded as his weakness, but now he feels like a Iron Man, he doesn't need to rest, breathe, or refuel.

For Messi, this game is definitely not the end.

Some people say that Messi has no limit, and the significance of his survival is to refresh people's expectations again and bring surprises again and again.

Although the opponent is strong, Messi firmly believes that he will eventually win the final victory. Degan is not his goal. His only goal, and the only goal worthy of him, is the ball king, the third king after Bailey and Maradona.

Messi's talent was revealed as early as his childhood, but his development was not smooth sailing. At the age of 11, little Messi was accidentally diagnosed with a development hormone deficiency, which would directly hinder the growth of her bones. It's just that the family's financial conditions can't afford the treatment of small flea at all. At this juncture, a decision of Messi's father changed the whole career of the little flea. At the age of 13, Messi's father Jorge immigrated to Spain with his family, and this decision was undoubtedly proved to be correct afterwards.

13-year-old Messi was favored by the famous coach Lexage in Barcelona at that time. Although the little flea was only 140cm tall at that time, the Barcelona club still couldn't wait to sign a contract with him until 2012, and the club did not hesitate to arrange for him to accept treatment. So far, this genius has grown to 170cm.

As a rare genius, 16-year-old Messi made his debut on behalf of Barcelona in a friendly match. A year later, Messi made his debut in the 83rd minute in La Liga against Spaniard, which also made his debut on behalf of Barcelona in La Liga. The second young player in the field.

On May 1, 2005, Messi scored against Albaset, making him the youngest player to score a goal for Barcelona at that time.

In 2005, he not only obtained Spanish nationality, but also made his Champions League debut in the UEFA Champions League home match with Udinese.

However, in the 2006 UEFA Champions League match against AC Milan, Messi could only be on the bench and watched Barcelona, then led by Ronaldinho, blocked from the final by Degan.

After the storm, the 18-year-old flea finally became the main force of Barcelona's first team in the 06/07 season, scoring 14 goals for the team in 26 games.

On March 11, 2007, in the game against Real Madrid, he was under 20 years old and scored a hat-trick, becoming the first player to win a triple in the century derby after Zamorano.

On April 18, 2007, in the King's Cup semifinal against Getafe, Messi copied Maradona's goal of five goals in a row in the World Cup, and later in the Catalan derby with Spain, he copied Maradona's God-like goal.

This season, 21-year-old Messi can be said to have reached a** of his career. Although he is still regarded as Ronaldinho's little brother, Messi's performance on the field obviously far exceeded people's expectations. So far, he has scored 38 in various competitions. Although Barcelona lagged behind Real Madrid in the league, Messi's performance was enough to make people full of hope for Barcelona's future.

In Argentina, Messi also began to emerge from national teams at all levels. In the 2005 World Youth Championship, he not only led the team to win the championship, but also won the best scorer with 6 goals.

In the 2006 World Cup in Germany, 17-year-old Messi represented Argentina and scored a wonderful goal as a substitute in the group stage.

From the beginning to Barcelona, to the core of the current team, Messi has walked a road that many people can't imagine. Until now, Messi still remembers the first few months, everything was terrible for Messi.

On March 6, 2001, Messi came to Barcelona, and the Catalan Football Association issued him a temporary entry card, and the Newell Old Guys Club refused to issue him an international transfer certificate. Messi can only represent Barcelona's childhood B team in regional competitions, and cannot represent his age-specific childhood A team in national competitions, because he is a foreigner, and according to the Spanish Football Association, he cannot participate in all national competitions.

On April 21, Messi was kicked out of his left leg and fibula in the game, which was his first serious injury in his career and did not return from injury until June 6.

Only one month after his comeback, Messi had an edema of his left ankle and had to rest for a few more weeks. Messi only played two official games and one friendly match in his first season in Barcelona. The only good news is that doctors decided to gradually replace the injection of growth hormone with physical training and diet control to help Messi grow.

In terms of learning and life, the Macy family encountered greater discomfort. Messi is still not interested in studying, but he never bothers the teacher and sits in the corner to do his own thing. Sister Maria no longer wants to set foot in Spain after returning home from her summer vacation. His parents asked Messi for advice on whether he wanted to stay in Rosario or go to Barcelona. Messi firmly chose Barcelona. In this way, his father lived in Barcelona with his three sons, and his mother Celia stayed in Argentina with her daughter. Since then, the separation life far away from the ocean has become the Messi family has been unchangeable for many years. Lifestyle.

On August 20, Messi returned to Barcelona after the summer vacation. Because the international transfer certificate has not yet arrived, he can only participate in some championships and friendly matches.

Messi can only use his energy in training and friendly matches, and this attitude has been affirmed by the echelon coach. Messi began transshipment in 2001 and first signed a second contract with the club in December.

In February 2002, FIFA ruled that the Spanish Football Association could register Messi, and Messi did not officially play in the Catalan regional league until a year after he arrived in Barcelona.

At the Little Masters Cup held in Pisa, Italy, from April 27 to May 7, Barcelona defeated Inter Milan, Chievo, Brescia, drew Juventus, and finally defeated Parma in the final. Messi began to become a topic of discussion.

Compaing with the scenery on the court, Messi's personality is too shy.

"At first, we thought he was dumb." Now Arsenal captain Fabregas recalled, "Later, thanks to living in Italy and playing football games together, we found that he could talk."

Basquez, another main force of the junior B team at that time, said: "Messi came to the locker room every day and sat in his corner, changing clothes without saying a word before he became active in Italy."

At that time, Villanova, the coach of the team, also thought that it was Italian life that made Messi integrate into the team: "He is not introverted at all on the court. Watching him play is like seeing Maradona."

The 2001/2002 season was an incredible season. Messi and Pike were promoted to the youth A team at the beginning of the season, and Messi completed the jumps from the youth A team to Barcelona C team to team B team one after another during the season.

Messi first played for the youth A team until Christmas, and then participated in the youth group King's Cup final in May, and finally scored 18 goals in 11 games. In the final of the Nerja Championship, he scored a half-court shot against Betis and finally won the championship.

Messi began to play for the youth A team and Barcelona C team at the same time in November 2001. Barcelona C team was on the verge of relegation with 9 points in 14 games. Messi scored 5 goals in the last 10 games and successfully helped the team relegation.

On March 16, 2002, Messi was promoted to the B team. Although he only won one game five times, he has proved that he can adapt to the older group.

Messi is only one step away from the first team, but the youth B team, which is three levels lower than Team B, needs his help. Juan, the then youth team coach. Carlos recalled: "If someone else is asked to be relegated to play the game, he will definitely be unhappy, but Messi didn't."

At that time, Barcelona, Spaniards and Premia were competing for the championship of the 2003/2004 season. As long as the Spaniard defeated Barcelona, the championship was just around the corner, but Messi equalized and finally helped Barcelona win the championship two weeks later.

At the end of the season, Messi's father began to negotiate Messi's first professional contract with Barcelona. There was a big gap between the two sides, but finally reached an agreement, because Arsenal had taken advantage of the chaos in the later period of Gaspat's administration to rob Fabregas, and Barcelona could not withstand a greater blow.

Barcelona can be said to have spared no effort to retain Messi. From joining now, Messi and Barcelona have signed a total of seven contracts. Messi has been called a genius by the media. People compare him with Pele of the 1958 World Cup in Sweden, compared with Maradona of the 1979 World Youth Championship with Cruyff. Compared with Best.

What are the advantages of Messi?

Ramos, the opponent's defender, has a lot of say: "He is good at dribbles, fast, and sticks to his feet. It is difficult and very difficult to defend him, especially when he is in good condition. He is a player who plays the right side with his left foot. When he breaks through, it is difficult for you to defend. He is a real big problem for any defender, and I don't know what advice he has for other defenders to defend Messi.

Although Messi is only part of Barcelona's glorious history, the team has given birth to countless great stars before him, and someone will surpass Messi's achievements today in the future, there is no doubt that Messi will leave a strong mark in Barcelona.

Messi is gently moving his body, and his eyes are inadvertently looking at Degan, who is standing at the front of the Florence team. This is the first real face-to-face competition between him and Degan.

Last time Degan came to Camp Nou, he was just a supporting role. Today, he hopes to become the real owner of this stadium.

Digan suddenly turned around inadvertently and looked at Messi, but only for a moment, he quickly moved away.

"That's the future of Barcelona!" Pujol, the captain of Barcelona standing next to Degan, suddenly said something.

Digan was stunned and then laughed, "Future? It seems that I have nothing to worry about!"

Pujol was also stunned. He didn't expect Degan to react like this: "Kid! Don't underestimate Leo, be careful that he will make you leave Camp Nou crying!"

Digan despised Messi before the game, and Pujol also knew it, and the captain of Barcelona was also very unhappy about this.

Digan said indifferently, "Really? I'm really looking forward to it, but I have a question. Can you only put all your expectations on a child now?

Because of the appearance of Degan, Barcelona in the world is far from reaching their expectations, especially last season's Champions League semifinals were eliminated by AC Milan. In the following season, Barcelona not only failed to make a breakthrough in the Champions League, but even the domestic league was grabbed by Real Madrid. Quan, in this season, Barcelona has always been suppressed by Real Madrid, and the only thing that can be fought for is the Champions League.

Digan's words annoyed Pujol. The defeat in Camp Nou two years ago also made Pujol angry: "Kid! We will definitely laugh to the end this time!"

Digan said black again, "But he may not be able to laugh the best!"

Before Pujol could fight back, it was time for the two teams to enter. Although it had been shocked by the atmosphere of Camp Nou in the player channel just now, he stepped on the stadium and listened to the Barcelona fans around him constantly shouting "Barca, Barcelona", and Degan still surged a trace of tension from the bottom of his heart.

Digan hasn't felt this feeling for a long time, but today it is particularly obvious.

For this game, in the previous league and Coppa Italia, Prandelli hid a lot of main players, and even Degan rarely got a chance to rest. Now the battle is about to begin. In this game, Prandelli has also sent the strongest lineup.

The goalkeeper is still Frey, and from left to right on the defensive line is Antonini and Tiago. Silva, Compani and Marjo, and Compani have just returned from injury, Prandelli still put him in the start lineup after consideration.

The midfield still has three midfield configurations: Modric, Ledesma and Marchena. Front midfielder Prandelli chose Arteta, and the Spaniard returned to his familiar position.

The forward line is Digan's partner Mutu, a standard combination of one high and one fast. Prandelli's idea is obvious. This game is to fight back defensively and use the speed of Digan and Mutu to hit Barcelona's back line.

On Barcelona's side, the goalkeeper is Valdes, Beletti, Marcos, Edmilson and Pujol on the defensive line, Harvey, Iniesta and Deco in the midfield, Henry and Messi on the two wingers, and Eto'o on the forward line.

Judging from the players, Barcelona has no reservations today. They are all sent players with excellent offensive ability, especially two sidelines, Messi and Henry. Although the winger is not Henry's best position, his passing and internal shots are definitely a major benefit for Barcelona's attack. qi.

Of course, Ricard's most important thing in this game is Messi. Although he is a winger, according to the experience of the previous game, Messi will move towards the middle road from time to time, change his position with Etoo, and take on the blame of the center.

In terms of offensive ability, Barcelona is definitely stronger than Fiorentina. Any player in the midfield and frontcourt has the strength to become a core player, but in Barcelona, they all need to serve the whole and maximize their ability. If Fiorentina and Barcelona If you fight against each other, it is undoubtedly looking for death.

So in this game, Prandelli sent Machena as a defensive player in the midfield, and any of him was to keep an eye on Harvey, Barcelona's offensive hub.

Although Deco's role seems to be stronger than Harvey in Barcelona's tactical system, in fact, it is Harvey who really takes over the Enrique flag in Barcelona.

Harvey's role is even a bit like Pirlo of AC Milan. Although the position is higher than Pirlo and the characteristics of the two are very different, they have the same responsibilities, that is, the team's brain and central nervous system.

After the opening ceremony, the game was about to officially begin. Digan and Puyol stood face to face, and fierce sparks burst out in their eyes. Messi stood behind Pujol and looked at the tight body of the little man, just like a little lion ready to go.

Degan VS Messi, the first battle between the two popular candidates for the next football king, is about to begin!
