"Friends, welcome to the finals of the Spanish Cup of Rey in the 2014-2015 season."

"We are now at Camp Nou Stadium to broadcast live for everyone."

"The players of both teams have already set up their own half-courts, and both sides still adopted the 433-3 style of play."

"It is worth mentioning that although this game was held at Camp Nou, Barcelona was wearing the away team's jersey, while Chinatown won the home team's signing as a guest."

"But despite this, Zidane repeatedly emphasized before the game and dared not be careless."

"In this game, his arrangement of troops was novel, but it was not surprising. Kanter was arranged to drag the midfield position. This French midfielder became famous in the Camp Nou, with excellent defensive ability, and Kanter ahead of him was his French compatriot Paul Pogba."

"Before the game, the media revealed that Isco was injured, and Pogba probably also had this consideration."

"It is worth mentioning that the head coaches of both teams in this game are both legendary superstars of the past."

"Barcelona is Luis Enrique. Chinatown, which led Barcelona to beat Zidane this season, won the La Liga championship. The head coach of Chinatown is Zidane. One of the most successful head coaches in European football last season. In his first season of debut, he won a heavy Champions League and two tragic runner-ups."

"The two sides have played two games this season. Chinatown won three-to-one at home and lost zero-to-two away. If it is based on the standards of the Champions League knockout stage, Chinatown is still at a slight disadvantage."

"More importantly, after playing this Cup of del Rey final, the two teams will face off again at the Berlin Olympic Stadium in Germany a week later to decide the Champions League champion this season, so this game is also known as the outpost of the Champions League final."

"Barcelona has won the La Liga championship. If he wins the Copa REK and the Champions League again, then Luis Enrique will win the triple-champion in his first season as coached Barcelona."

"The game was kicked off with Barcelona first."

...

"The referee finally blew the whistle to start the game."

"Suarez quickly kicked the ball to Messi."

"The competition officially begins!"

"Barcelona quickly passed back, but Chinatown striker Firmino quickly stepped up and took Busquets straight."

"Busquets passed back to the back line."

"Barcelona's two central defenders fell back and forth, looking for opportunities."

"Pick's big foot moved to the right, and Alves stopped the ball directly to Messi in front."

"Messi came to pick up the ball, stopped the ball to Rakitic, and Rakitic passed it back to Alves, and then to Busquets."

"Iniesta got the ball, Pedro came to pick it up, two by one, beautiful, passed the ball to the left, and Alba inserted it."

"The defense speed on Chinatown's right is very fast, Montoya's position is very stable, and he did not give Alba a chance, so he was forced to pass it back to Iniesta."

"Iniesta got the ball in the middle, Montoya suddenly robbed and double-teamed Iniesta with De Bruyne."

"Beautiful! Iniesta's pass was destroyed by Montoya, but the ball was still at Barcelona's feet."

"Busquets quickly returned to the defense line, Firmino pressed step by step, and Pique was forced to return to the goalkeeper."

"Thirty-five seconds into the game, Barcelona completed an offensive test, but returned in vain."

…………

…………

Gao Han sat in the stands, staring at the stadium with his eyes tightly.

As the saying goes, an expert looks at the tricks, while an outsider watches the fun.

Although it was only the first time to test, the tactics of both sides can be roughly seen.

Barcelona wanted to grab the ball. Even if Xavi didn't play, they had enough chips to grab the ball at the start, while Zidane's start was mainly stable and played a bit constrained.

This convergence was clearly reflected in the first test.

Needless to say, the three midfielders are basically at the same level when defending. Pogba, Kante and De Bruyne are all actively returning to the position, and Hazard and Griezmann on both wings are also reclaiming and actively protecting the two wings.

There was only one Firmino left in the frontcourt pressing the opponent's central defender and Busquets.

Zidane's intentions are very obvious when he adopts this style of play. This is the Camp Nou Stadium. It is important to stabilize his rhythm and formation first. As for grabbing the ball with Barcelona, ​​it is a natural thing.

But if you feel that Chinatown is conservative because of this, it will be a mistake.

When Barcelona launched the second wave of tests, Pogba defended Rakitic on the left side of Chinatown and stabbed the ball to Hazard who was returning to defense. The Belgian dribbled the ball from the left and leaned against the middle. One person took the ball through the half and passed it to the right.

After Griezmann got the ball on the right, Montoya quickly stepped forward on the side. After the two formed a very simple wing cooperation, Montoya made a cross on the right.

The ball fell to the back point, and Pogba quickly inserted it from the left rib and headed before everyone, but it was slightly off.

This is the first shot in this game, completed by Chinatown.

Although he failed to score in the first offense, he basically expressed Zidane's intention.

This is Camp Nou, Barcelona's home court. There is no need for Chinatown to compete with Barcelona for the so-called ball possession rate. The most important thing is to threaten it and curb Barcelona's ball possession.

The trend of the game clearly proves this.

"Zidane is really stable at the critical moment!" Cantalero praised sincerely from the side.

Although Zidane was a little confused and hesitant before the game, once he made a decision, he gave people a feeling of being as steady as a mountain, which was particularly reliable.

Or it should be said that he knows how to make the most appropriate choice under what circumstances.

For example, in this game, the outside world may not be clear, but it is very clear inside Chinatown that Isco has no injury problems, but Zidane did not even put him on the roster. Cork was sitting on the bench.

But the Champions League final a week later is believed to be the stage for Isco.

Gao Han also agreed with Cantalero's words. "Three minutes into the game, Barcelona's midfield and backcourt began to show signs of disconnection. Rakitic and Iniesta's game were also valued by Pogba, Kante and De Bruyne. They forced them not to grab them, and only cut off Barcelona's forward pass line. This is a good thing."

After Rakitic and Iniesta's pass line was cut off, Barcelona began to try long passes in the backcourt, but Busquets directly sent the ball out of the right sideline, which failed to pose a threat.

Barcelona knows how sharp Chinatown's left offense is, so they attach great importance to this out-of-bounds defense.

But unexpectedly, Alex Sandro sent the out-of-bounds ball to Pogba.

The French midfielder suppressed Rakitic with his body, stopped the ball, and passed it to Ales Sandro, but the Brazilian left-back was pressed and passed it back to Pogba. The Frenchman still blocked Rakitic and Busquets with his body, and stopped the ball to Kante who came to pick it up.

With two consecutive touches, Pogba's advantage in the midfield can be clearly seen.

Not to mention the players who have completely crushed Barcelona in physical confrontation, they are tall and long, have delicate feet, and have excellent ball sense. Such a player is hard to come by, and Chinatown will do its best to keep him.

Pogba's continuous ball grabs attracted defensive attention, and Kanter quickly distributed it to De Bruyne after getting the ball.

The Belgian caught the ball sideways, quickly led the ball forward and inserted it diagonally to the right, forcing the Barcelona defensive player to return to defense desperately.

Griezmann still got the ball, and Montoya stepped forward to the side, but this time Griezmann did not pass to the bottom line of the wing, but directly passed the back point to find Hazard, but goalkeeper Bravo decisively abandoned the goal and took the ball off.

At this time, the game had just been going on for three minutes.

From the data point of view, Barcelona definitely has the advantage of possessing the ball, but from the on-site experience, Chinatown has the advantage in both rhythm and threats.

"That moment of De Bruyne just now reminded me of someone." Gao Han laughed.

"Kaka." Cantalero replied with a smile.

Gao Han nodded with a smile. De Bruyne is indeed very similar to Kaka back then, especially when he dribbled the ball and launched a counterattack just now, but he is different from Kaka. If he follows his current development momentum, his future achievements will be limitless.

There is also Pogba, a player who is both offensive and defense-oriented, is quite capable on both offense and defense. His feet are so delicate and his sense of ball is excellent. Such a player is really rare and will be a crucial member of the team in the future.

"Continue to play according to this idea, there is a great chance of winning this game." Gao Han said confidently.

Judging from Barcelona's performance in the three minutes of the opening game, the midfield combination of Rakitic and Iniesta is still relatively unfamiliar with the ball control. It would be fine if it was facing other teams, but it would be difficult to get a bargain in front of Chinatown.

Compared with the previous game 0-2, after the final stage of this season, Chinatown's midfield style has matured, which is also reflected in the stability of the scene.

But just as Gao Han finished speaking, Barcelona goalkeeper Bravo quickly sent a throw-in.

Chinatown actively pressed and pressed in the frontcourt, but Messi actively retreated to catch the ball. After getting the ball, he dribbled the ball and pushed it through the half. Before the defensive player, he passed the ball to Suarez who was pulling it to the right.

Suarez immediately passed the ball back to Rakitic and then passed it to Iniesta.

At this time, Messi had already run out of the gap in the middle, throwing Kante away, and raising his hand to ask for the ball.

As soon as Messi raised his hand, Iniesta quickly passed the ball in front of him as if he understood it.

Stop the ball... start the foot... arc... ball enters!

The entire goal was completed in one go. Before the two central defenders of Chinatown even had time to go forward and attack, Messi's arc ball pierced through the goal guarded by De Gea.

One to zero!

What is a superstar?

This is the superstar!

He strolled alone, defeating his opponent's iron wall.

After scoring the goal, Messi didn't look very excited. He hugged his teammates who ran up to celebrate, and felt like he scored an extremely ordinary goal.

But this goal brought a huge psychological blow to Chinatown.

They made a slight mistake. Rakitic passed to Iniesta. Kante didn't have time to run the position immediately and blocked the route that Iniesta passed to Messi, but was caught by the Argentine superstar.

This was Barcelona's first shot in this game, but he completed his first goal.

Gao Han sat in the stands and shook his head helplessly. What else could he say?

This is football!

Strictly speaking, Chinatown did not make any serious mistakes, but the bad luck is that it was Messi who caught the mistakes.
Chapter completed!
