No one knows what Guardiola said to his disciples at halftime, but everyone has seen it. At the beginning of the second half, Guardiola used up all three substitutions in one go.

The three main players of Messi, Iniesta and Butzquez all appeared on the stage.

The situation on the court was finally reversed.

Although only three people have been changed, these three are the core of Barcelona.

With them, Barcelona's combat effectiveness has recovered about 80%.

In the second half, Barcelona scored a total of three goals and completed the reversal.

In the end they defeated Eindhoven by a score of 3-1.

Taking into account that this is PSV Eindhoven's home field, when returning to the Nou Camp, PSV has no chance. So this can also be said to end the suspense of the quarter-finals ahead of schedule.

Barcelona not only defeated PSV, but also scored three away goals.

Nevertheless, Guardiola still criticized the team's performance after the game.

"Our performance was very bad! Especially in the first half. I don't want to say why this is. In my opinion, this kind of mistake should not be made..."

Guardiola is as proud as ever. He still feels that even if he has a lot of substitutes and young players, he shouldn't be helpless on the road.

During the intermission, he tried to boost morale, but he found that it didn't work. In order to avoid the irreversible situation of really qualifying, he had to temporarily let go of his obsession and let Messi and others play.

So although he won the game, Guardiola was in a bad mood.

At the same time as this game ended was the match between Liverpool and Dortmund.

As expected by Guardiola, although Dortmund scored a goal in the first half, it was meaningless.

Liverpool scored two more goals in the second half, and Chen Yingxiong also completed a hat trick.

Gotze faced his old club for the first time, and he was very positive and outstanding. He seems to want to use practical actions to prove to his old club how correct his choice was-Dortmund's pattern is too small. I need a broader stage and I need to be promoted. And he has all of these now.

Two seasons in Liverpool. He participated in more high-level competitions. At the same time, there are also high-level teammates around him, helping him to improve quickly. Now he is not only Liverpool's main midfielder, but also the main midfielder of the German national team, squeezing Real Madrid's Ozil to the right.

This is the result of constantly feeding Chen Yingxiong the ball.

He finally changed from a pure German genius to a top star that has attracted worldwide attention.

The final score is 5:1. Liverpool defeated Dortmund at home, completely ending the suspense of the second round of the two sides.

In this way, Liverpool can send a substitute for the second round. Let the main players get a rest, while avoiding further accumulation of yellow cards, resulting in a suspension. That would be too costly.

Barcelona wanted to take things easy. Now their wishful thinking has failed.

After the game, the European media commented on the performance of the two teams.

It is generally believed that Martin O’Neal is strategically better than Guardiola. Because he did his best in his home court, and did not consume the main body's physical energy, but completely locked the victory, and won the rest of the game for the team.

As for Barcelona, ​​the result of underestimating the enemy is to be embarrassed on the away game and not rested well. It can be said that the bamboo basket was completely empty.

Everyone can already see some clues from these two games. These things may become the key factors that determine the outcome of a confrontation between the two teams.

Psychologically, Liverpool has an advantage over Barcelona.

After all, this is a hearty victory for them. The victory of this game can improve the players' state and confidence, which will be of great benefit to them against Barcelona.

Barcelona's score is pretty good, but the process is very tortuous, which is a narrow win. If it weren't for Guardiola's decisive substitution, I'm afraid Barcelona will capsize in the gutter. Even if such a game is won, no one will be happy. It can be seen from Guardiola's speech at the press conference after the game that he is very dissatisfied. If he is not happy, then the Barcelona players will suffer.

The whole team will be in a relatively depressed mood.

Such a state is not conducive to dealing with Liverpool.

Some media believe that Guardiola cares too much about Liverpool, and the result is chaotic.

"I was defeated by Liverpool in the Champions League final last year and gave Pep Guardiola a heavy blow... It seems that he hasn't slowed down until now... Because he is eager for revenge, Liverpool surpasses all the others in his mind. The team would turn a blind eye to Eindhoven and almost lose because of underestimating the enemy...Perhaps Guardiola would not admit it, in fact Liverpool...No, it is Chen Yingxiong who has become his. Nightmare. If you can't defeat Chen Yingxiong, then this nightmare will exist forever..."

For such a statement, Guardiola is naturally disbelieving and disdainful.

Are you kidding me? Will Chen Yingxiong become his own nightmare? Give me a break! I, Guardiola, haven't been afraid of anyone yet! Just a player, brave and intrepid, would such a person threaten my Barcelona? He just had better luck...

But I really want to beat him, not to get rid of the boring nightmare, but because I defeated Liverpool to be able to advance to the finals and to win the championship trophy again!

They all won the game, and Barcelona's sorrow is bleak and panic. In Liverpool, there is a relaxed and happy atmosphere.

They themselves didn't expect to win so easily at home, this time they are equivalent to entering the semi-finals ahead of schedule.

Although the opponent of the semi-finals is likely to be Barcelona, ​​but with Liverpool's current confidence and morale, they think it is normal for Barcelona to lose to them again.

After playing this game, they no longer think about the quarter-finals of the Champions League, even if there is one more round, they don't have to worry about it anymore.

They can turn their attention back to the domestic league.

There are now seven rounds left in the league, with Liverpool leading the league second-placed Manchester United by as many as 11 points. As long as they win four more games, they will be able to win the league championship three rounds in advance.

In these four rounds, the only enemy with a bit of strength was Manchester City in the 34th round.

The opponents in the other three rounds are not worth mentioning. In the thirty-second round, Liverpool challenged Nottingham Forest away.

In the thirty-third round, Liverpool played against Stoke at home.

In the thirty-fifth round, Liverpool played at home against Wigan Athletic.

If all goes well, the league champion will be decided on April 21. The remaining three rounds of the league will be played as much as Liverpool want, even if all the Liverpool reserves are on the court. Maybe then someone will say that Liverpool does not respect their opponents, but who makes them qualified? Unconvinced teams can also win three rounds ahead of schedule. Even if they are all on the youth team, that is their freedom. Anyway, in the rules of Premier League registration, players under the age of 18 can directly participate in the Premier League without registration qualifications.

Taking a step back, even if Liverpool can't win three rounds in advance, this win should be irreversible.

Because Liverpool's opponents were not strong in the last three rounds.

The 36th round is an away game against Portsmouth, the 37th round is an away game against Fulham, and the 38th round is back at home against Charlton.

For these three teams, even if Liverpool really use a reserve team and a Chen Yingxiong, they have a 60% chance of winning.

The only thing Manchester United can do now is to try to delay Liverpool's championship a little bit, and then a little bit later.

As for reversing Liverpool and winning the league title? Even Ferguson, I'm afraid I don't dare to think so in my heart...

※※※

Before the away challenge to Nottingham Forest. Martin O'Neal shouted the slogan of winning three rounds ahead of schedule within the team, which means that Liverpool will have to win four consecutive league rounds in the next four rounds.

Winning the league title in advance can free Liverpool to prepare for the semi-finals of the Champions League with Barcelona.

The thirty-fifth round of the league is on April 21, and if nothing else, the semi-final against Barcelona will be on April 25. To win the championship early, you can at least have three more days to train for Barcelona.

As for the second round, there will be more time left. The second round of the game was on May 3rd.

Barcelona will not have such an opportunity. In La Liga, they are inextricably beaten with Real Madrid. Barcelona is currently two points ahead of Real Madrid, but there is still a national derby between the two sides, which is Real Madrid's home court.

And, unfortunately, this game is between the two Champions League semi-finals.

It is said that Barcelona has made a request to the La Liga Football Association to change the date of this national derby.

However, it was rejected by Real Madrid.

Real Madrid will definitely refuse. Although they are also facing the Champions League semi-finals, whether it is ac Milan or Chelsea, their opponents are much weaker than Liverpool. And like now, there are not many opportunities for the deadly enemy to fall into the trap. It feels very wonderful. How can Real Madrid let it go?

By that time, looking at rivals Barcelona empty-handed in the domestic and European arenas, Real Madrid this season is complete-they also have a chance to compete for the Champions League, even if they run into Liverpool, Real Madrid are confident to fight.

By that time, the deadly enemies have been playing in the basket this season, and the Real Madrid double champion is in hand. When they come back, they want to laugh and taunt Barcelona, ​​so they will laugh at them.

It's so happy!
