Chapter 293 The Contradiction in the Dressing Room

The power of the Barcelona superstars can't be underescapaised. Although Guardiola is limited, Barcelona can't deliver the ball to the deep zone in time after getting the ball, giving Alkmaar time to think and defend in the back line. However, even if Alkmaar has set up the car and cannon, he can't stop the Barcelona superstars from being in the front court. Personal improvisation.

Enger and Lucio did not stop Rivaldo from breaking through with the ball from the back court. Enger had no choice but to reach out and pull down Rivaldo after Rivaldo's breakthrough. He was shown a yellow card by referee Frix and was given a direct free kick.

The ball is on the right side of the penalty area. In this position, Barcelona's Rivaldo, Figo and Debor can take the penalty, but because the ball was made by Rivaldo, no one competed with Rivaldo.

Cesar stood cautiously in front of the door and directed his teammates to defend. Although he had never been in the national team, he and Rivaldo were both Brazilians. Ronaldinho and Lai were very familiar with Rivaldo, and he was also familiar with the characteristics of Rivaldo. Although he knew that this Brazilian compatriot's free-free kick was not as good as Mihailovi. Qi's accuracy is so good, but it's also very good. According to Ronaldinho, Rivaldo's free kick is fast and the arc is good, which is unexpected. In terms of hitting rate, it is higher than him, Ronaldo and Carlos.

The human wall sealed the near corner, and Cesar stood in the back corner of the middle road and waited.

Rivaldo's tile knife face was also very serious, and his eyes were more cold, as if it was not his compatriots, but his enemies standing in front of him.

Rivaldo stepped back a few steps later and looked at the back corner of the goal. After the whistle, he ran a little and waved his legs. He quickly rubbed the ball up with the inside of his left foot. At a very fast speed, the ball drew a wonderful arc across the human wall and got into the near corner of the goal.

Cesar saw Rivaldo's foot, but he was late when he saved. The ball was too fast. As soon as he jumped up, the ball flew into the net, so that Cesar's save could only be abandoned halfway.

1:1, Rivaldo's goal helped Barcelona equalize the score.

Rivaldo did not celebrate crazily after scoring the goal, but pointed his eyes to the sky with his forefinger with both hands, as if everyone in the world were at his feet.

"GOALGOALGOAL...Rivaldo! Rivaldo! He helped Barcelona equalize the score with a beautiful free kick, and now the two sides are in a 1:1 draw, great Riva, great goal! Although the score is one-to-one, Barcelona is an away game. This away goal is enough for Barcelona to take the lead in the next round. It can be said that Rivaldo's goal is equivalent to two..."

After Rivaldo scored, Van Gaal waved his fist, but there was not much excitement in his eyes. This was completely the goal caused by Rivaldo's personal ability, and it was against his tactical deployment. To put it ugly, this goal was almost hitting Van Gaal in the face. How did Van Gaal do? Be happy.

A goal away! Alkmaar's coach shook his head and sighed, but Jiang Mu just shrugged his shoulders when he saw the goal, then turned back to the coach's seat and sat down. He had nothing to say about such a goal, and he didn't want to train the players. There was no big problem with the players' performance. The foul was about 25 meters, but It's about 30 meters, and Rivaldo also has the ability to score. This goal is nothing. It is within Jiang Mu's tolerance. At least tactically, Alkmaar is still restricting Barcelona's performance. Barcelona can only score goals by personal ability. He believes that if Van Gaal does not make adjustments, Alkmaar will continue to prevail as a whole and create more threats. .

After Barcelona scored, Barcelona's fans and players were excited. Not only Rivaldo had an excellent performance, but also Guardiola and Figo, who were suppressed by many parties in front of them, became active. Guardiola got rid of it and passed the ball to the foot of the striker, and Figo was also in Al. Kemar's left side is a series of killing.

In the 42nd minute of the game, Figo changed direction continuously on the left side, shook down Riser, and made a long-range shot at a small angle at the edge of the penalty area. The ball hit the outside of the goalpost and flew out of the bottom line.

Two minutes later, Figone cut to the middle. In the entanglement with Gattuso, the strong Figo hit Gattuso, but the referee did not whistle. Figo directly pulled his foot and shot angrily at about 30 meters, and the ball was blocked by Cesar's fingertips.

This corner kick was personally led by Figo. The Portuguese corner kick accurately found the center Kruivit. The talented teenager who was later criticized by the fans because of the car accident and ** finally showed the strength of the center. He still hit the Pi under the defense of Lucio and Ismail. The ball, but the ball was a little higher and bounced back on the crossbar.

Barcelona's continuous attacks shocked Alkmaar, and the strikers shrank back to defend, which could stop Barcelona's offensive frenzy. In the end, the two sides drew 1:1 in the first half.

When the players returned to the locker room, Jiang Mu still led the coaching team to hug the frustrated players at the door of the locker room.

When the players were relaxing, Jiang Mu comforted: "A goal is lost at home, but it's not your fault. Barcelona has the ability to score goals. Our strength is worse than Barcelona's. Even if this is the final score, I think it is the best score. Obviously, Barcelona came to Alkmaar with a victorious mission, and our task is to break their dreams..."

Lin Nazhou said, "In fact, you should see that this Barcelona is tactically restrained by us and played very poorly, but the last five minutes have the upper hand, but it also depends on the player's personal ability. I believe that our whole will overwhelm their personal performance in the end.

Jiang Mu nodded and said, "I think Rivaldo's goal is a good thing. He will delay Van Gaal's adjustment time. At halftime, if Van Gaal does not make adjustments, it will not be easy to make adjustments in the second half. Players don't have time to listen to his detailed arrangements. We still have to strangle Guardiola in the second half, make the opponent's engine and converter lose their effectiveness, and force other players to replace Guardiola, so that Barcelona will make more mistakes, and we will have more opportunities.

Klose, when you hold the ball, you retreat and plug it in when we hold the ball. Goal is not your task. Don't be intoxicated with scoring goals. Your task with Van Bomel is to contain Guardiola. Don't reverse it.

Klose and Van Bomel nodded repeatedly and said that in the last period, they were indeed a little relaxed in watching Guardiola. As a result, Guardiola caused a lot of trouble for Alkmaar.

In order to prevent another accident on the right, Jiang Mu specially asked Enge to watch the opponent's arrow Rivaldo, while Lucio was responsible for protecting it. At the same time, Gattuso, Van Bommel and others are also actively engaged in the midfield. Once he got the ball, Alkmaar immediately turned the ball to the side and put it into the attack, using the speed of Ronaldo and Riese to hit the opponent's side, and then transferred the fire to the middle.

And in the locker room of the visiting team, Van Gaal and Rivaldo, Mourinho had an argument again. Van Gaal criticized Rivaldo for not following the team's tactical discipline. The free kick goal was really beautiful, but it was obtained by sacrificing the opportunity of his teammates. Rivaldo was not convinced. He thought that he had a lot of time on the sidelines and completed a lot of passes, but his teammates did not complete the goal. He had no choice but to come to the middle.

Although Van Gaal did not think Rivaldo was right, the center and winger did not score in the first 40 minutes, which made his preaching unconvincing. Van Gaal can only let Rivaldo decide freely whether to be on the side or in the middle.

And Mourinho is still insisting on adjusting the midfield. The opponent restrained Barcelona's tactics. Guardiola has always been accompanied by players, so that his teammates do not dare to pass the ball, and the pass is easy to be destroyed, which greatly destroys the speed of Barcelona's attack. In Van Garr's Barcelona, speed is the most important martial arts. As soon as the backcourt is slow, you can't get up quickly in the front court, because Alkmaar's defense is very fast. When they stand in a good position, even breakthrough masters like Figo and Rivaldo can't do anything.

Van Gaal was a little angry and asked Mourinho how to adjust, replacing Guardiola or Harvey? Or replace it with Gabriel and Ronald. De Boer?

Mourinho was not afraid. He looked directly at Van Gaal and said, "Then replace Harvey, let Guardiola and Harvey form a dual core, and Koku is in charge of defense next to him. Or go straight to the three defensive midfields and hit the ball directly from the back line to the striker.

Van Gaal sneered and said, "Guardiola and Harvey are both in the back of the ball. They all come to organize the ball. Who will plug in the attack? In addition, Enrique had a hard time defending Ronaldinho and Riese. If he changes to Harvey, whose defensive ability is equal to zero, will he still want the right side?"

Mourinho said glumsantly, "If you want to win, you have to take a risk. If you want to keep this 1:1 score, then line up three backs to ensure that the opponent can't break our goal."

Van Gaal made a mistake in the tactical arrangement, which was full of anger. At this time, when he saw Mourinho still chirring with him, he was even more angry and said firmly, "There is no need to adjust the midfield. In the end, we played well. If we scored first in the second half, everything will be easy. If it is right. If you score a goal with your hand, then make a plan and decide like this.

Mourinho looked ugly when he saw Van Gaal talking. He shook his head, said 'stupid' in Portuguese, and turned around and left the dressing room.

The team scored an away goal. Originally, Barcelona's players were very high-minded. As a result, in the locker room, the team's flag Rivaldo and assistant coach Mourinho actually quarreled with the head coach, which cast a shadow on the hearts of the players. The happy atmosphere was gone, and everyone relaxed silently. In preparation for the second half of the game, no one said a word.
