Standing by the window of the hotel, looking at the fans singing vigorously outside, Zhao Yaning couldn't help but turn his head, "You Catalans, is that how you welcome friends?"

The Liverpool team came to Barcelona a day earlier. But now, it was very late, and a large number of fans gathered outside the hotel where they stayed. They clamored, sang, and yelled frantically there. Under their interference, the Liverpool players could not even take a good rest.

Zhao Yaning can't remember seeing similar fans. Madrid fans are crazy, but they only shout, parade, and demonstrate next to their stadium. Liverpool fans are crazy, but they only fight on the street. Even the Italians sometimes act a bit aggressively, but they have never made such a fuss. Tossing outside the hotel where the visiting team is staying, this kind of approach is quite a bit of interference with the opponent's rest. Such things are extremely rare and some are not very decent.

Although such a thing is not considered illegal, even because it is a fan behavior, it is hard to say that it is against sportsmanship, but after all, such a thing is not considered a glorious thing. As a giant, before playing football, he would not even give his opponent a chance to rest. The method is not clever. This approach is almost like Hua Shan's smashing all his opponents before discussing the sword - yes, it is indeed a means of winning, but it is too embarrassing.

Zhao Yaning is now standing in the hotel, looking at the mischievous crowd outside, and behind him are Garcia and Reina, two Catalans. Although their home is in the local area, since the players are traveling with the team, they naturally live in the hotel. They also have the same helpless look towards their compatriots.

"Where did you see that we are their friends?" Garcia walked to the edge of the window sill and looked at the tumultuous crowd outside the window, still a bit stiff. After all, these people are his compatriots, he could not Compatriots who do not defend themselves, "We are here to play the game, we are their enemy, OK?"

"But wherever we go to play, we haven't encountered such a thing. Even the lunatics in Italy, they burned their own cars, but there was no bus that besieged us." Zhao Yaning asked, "Football game again. It's not war, you Catalans, are you so crazy for a football match?"

"We take football very seriously." Garcia replied. Such an excuse was a little weak. However, in order not to leave a bad impression on Zhao Yaning, he continued, "Jiatai people are very friendly, if You are not here to play football, but to travel. Walking on the streets of Barcelona, ​​you can easily get help. However, we do value our ethnicity. If you ask for directions in Spanish, they will point you to You direction, but ask directions in Catalan, they will take you-of course it is also related to our tourist city. We love our nation, and our nation needs something to maintain our self-esteem. Football, especially FC Barcelona football, is one of the few things we feel proud of. If someone wants to beat our team, they will naturally be treated unfairly."

"To be honest, I still can't understand you people who rely on football to build national pride. After all, this is a ball. And even in football, you don't seem to be able to compare with Castilians?" Zhao Yaning complained and looked outside, "Moreover, I think you have some other things you can be proud of, your economy, city, and, what I know the most about Catalans, It's a Samaranch, the one of the International Olympic Committee..."

"He has nothing to do with Barcelona. He is a dual member of Real Madrid and Real Espanyol. Although he is a Catalan, he loves Spain very much." Reina said from the side. Unlike Garcia, he didn't want to do too much of these things. Have a discussion, "Go to sleep, they just want to add psychological pressure to us. You know how boring these things are. You don’t have noise-cancelling headphones. The soundproofing effect of our bedroom is also good enough that they can’t make trouble. We, we can still sleep well. No matter how they make trouble, it will only increase some pressure. What are they doing?"

Zhao Yaning shook his head without saying a word. He just found it strange that this was the first time he had seen this approach. Fans always feel a bit too much to support the team in this way.

"In fact, this also shows that they are still quite afraid of us, and we should be happy." Garcia added.

"I'm not that boring." Zhao Yaning shook his head, "Such things make ghosts happy. Besides, shouldn't they value us, shouldn't they? Our strength lies there, who dares not value us?"

In fact, the current media still quite disagrees with Liverpool.

"Perhaps, in this game, Liverpool should consider playing more appropriately. After all, this game is played at Barcelona’s home court at the Nou Camp. If this game continues to persist in offensive football, Liverpool’s I am afraid that both physical strength and technique are not in the upper hand. After all, the opponent is the representative team of technical football, Barcelona. When playing against such a team, it does not hurt to play more conservatively. This game was won on the away game. A draw or even a small loss is acceptable. After all, back to Anfield, there is still another game, and that game is the key to victory."

The English newspapers are all giving Liverpool ideas. After all, the opponent is a top powerhouse like Barcelona. At this time, the Premier League media still don't believe that Liverpool can win a victory. In their opinion, it would be a good idea to draw away and then kill the opponent at home.

"However, this is too small for us." Zhao Yaning recalled those words, but only one summary, "Let them see how we won the game."——

Barcelona also paid enough attention to the encounter with Liverpool. They also sent all their main players in this game.

The goalkeeper is Valdes, their main goalkeeper, and the back line is composed of Zambrotta, Puyol, Marquez and Thuram. The defensive line is not Barcelona's strengths, but after they introduced Zambrotta and Thuram this season, they also have some reinforcements. Zambrotta and Thuram are distributed on the two sides, naturally to offset the Premier League team’s side advantage, and the center has Puyol, a strong defender, can also support it, and Marquis is on the Most of the midfielders have played this season, and he has always suffered from unstable performance, but when his performance is stable, he is still a trustworthy defender.

And their midfield line is a trio of Harvey, Mota and Deco.

These three can be regarded as all-round midfielders. In the game, Deco was in the front and Xavi and Mota were behind. Although their defense is not very good, Barcelona is not a team that started off defense. The midfielders have a strong ability to pass and control, they are more helpful to them, and their combination can also have a very good effect.

And their forward line is the combination of Ronaldinho, Eto'o and Messi.

This striker is the most proud part of Barcelona. They have an excellent striker. All three people on a striker have excellent assault ability and excellent cooperation ability. Their cooperation is indeed repeated again and again. Played a very good game.

Barcelona still has a lot of changes this season. Giuly has been squeezed to the bench by Messi. Messi’s ability to have the ball is stronger. This season Ronaldinho’s explosive power has declined due to his unruly life, and his ability to break through alone has declined. In order to enhance Barcelona’s ball-holding attack, Barcelona used it Messi replaced Jiuli, who has a strong off-ball ability.

And Iniesta is still a substitute. This player of the same year as Zhao Yaning, although he has always been a genius, does not have a stable main position in Barcelona with Ronaldinho as the core. On the one hand, injuries have affected his position, and on the other hand, his position has always been difficult to locate. When he debuted, he even played as a midfielder. Until now, he has stabilized in the rotation of front midfielder and winger, but now, it is only a rotation player.

In this game, Ronaldinho, Eto'o, Messi and Deco are all present. It can be said that Barcelona is also the main force.

The Liverpool side also dispatched all the main players. The goalkeeper is Reina, the defenders are Riise, Vidic, Carragher, Maicon, and the double midfielders are Alonso and Sissoko, the front midfielder is Figo, Zhao Yaning is doing it, and Kuyt is on the right. , And Milito started as a striker.

In this game, Liverpool also dispatched the most outstanding lineup. Mascherano is suspended, and Gerrard is the same, but the lineup sent by Liverpool is not bad.

"In this game, we saw a lot of acquaintances. Reina, Garcia, and Luis Figo all returned to the Nou Camp. Garcia was a substitute, Reina and Figo both got the starters, and they also They were all treated warmly enough by the fans."

When Figo and Reina were on the court, they were greeted with boos. After all, they are players from here, and now they are back at the Nou Camp, the fans will naturally boo. Reina looked a little gloomy, while Figo was already indifferent.

He got used to it.

As the whistle sounded, the game began immediately. After several offensive and defensive transitions, the ball was quickly controlled at the feet of the Barcelona players. Their skills are indeed more delicate than that of the Liverpool players, and after all, they are playing at home. They are more experienced in running positions. Soon after the start of the game, they have the right to the ball. This kind of situation also made the fans start crazy clamor. After all, their team can get the ball and occupy the advantage, which naturally makes them very happy.

"Barcelona got the ball~lightnovelpub.net~ They controlled the game at home. Liverpool hasn't had a chance until now. Football has always been at the feet of Barcelona. Liverpool people can only be played around!"

The Spanish commentators are also very excited about such a game. After all, being able to suppress Liverpool is enough to make them proud.

But as the game progressed, soon everyone discovered a phenomenon.

"Barcelona got the ball, but they can only play in their own half." The English commentator first put forward this view. "Although Liverpool does not have the ball, it relies on excellent oppression and tight frontcourt. Forced, Barcelona can only return and cross continuously. The ball has always been in their own half. Although Liverpool has no chance now, Barcelona has no chance either."

Barcelona had the ball at their feet, but they were unable to launch an excellent offensive. Throughout the game, they were suppressed in the second half. This kind of game reminded the fans of another game quickly: Spain's World Cup game against France, that's how they lost.

In this game, it seems that it is not Barcelona that has the advantage...
