Chapter 266: Combining Hardness and Softness (Daily Transition, Happy New Year to Everyone)
Pellegrini did not panic.
In the positional battle just now, Manchester City’s defense was flattened like a bus by Barcelona, but still couldn’t hold on.
But this is normal.
Facing the peak MSN Barcelona, Manchester City must continue to attack.
“Calm down, things are not that bad, Barcelona’s defense has a lot of problems.”
The other side.
Enrique also regained his “calm and relaxed” style as a famous coach.
Touch the mineral water bottle gently.
“Just kick it like this.”
“Pass the ball to Neymar and we’ll come back.”
Assistant coach Unsue was a little confused: the head coach said to pass the ball to Messi one moment, and then said to pass the ball to Neymar the next?
A breeze from the Spree River blew up the corner flag.
Gao Qi was not discouraged.
He did not make any meaningless morale-boosting gestures, nor did he complain. Instead, he actively communicated with his teammates in the midfield and deployed the next offensive chain.
Morata was a little dazed, and in his trance he vaguely saw a curly-haired figure.
He patted De Bruyne’s butt and said, “Gao means that we don’t have to focus on how to disrupt Barcelona’s transition. We will first break down Barcelona’s defense.”
De Bruyne’s cheeks turned red from the wind and he nodded seriously.
Messi looked at the united Manchester City and suddenly remembered a famous quote hanging on the wall of La Masia Youth Training: “You shouldn’t scold your teammates after they make mistakes. The real leaders on the court are mentally prepared when they go on the court: everyone makes mistakes.”
time flies.
The cheers in the Olympic Stadium gradually faded as the football moved slowly.
The scene was dull.
“Manchester City set the tempo.”
“I want to infiltrate the enemy’s two defense lines through the ground.”
“Barca players have perfectly implemented the football philosophy of the famous coach Luis Enrique.”
“False accusation, real reversal.”
“Space folding.”
Coach Zhang’s tone was filled with worry.
In the Champions League semi-finals, Guardiola’s Bayern’s passing and control could not defeat Barcelona’s fake control and real counter-attack.
The defense line was gradually raised, allowing MSN to launch fierce counterattacks many times.
Munich.
Bayern stars stared intently at the TV screen.
Schweinsteiger frowned: “It’s very dangerous for Manchester City to continue playing like this.”
“Passing and controlling the ball cannot suppress Barcelona’s fake control and real counterattack.”
“Alves will stay inside and protect Busquets.”
“Suarez will interfere with Manchester City’s deep-lying midfielders.”
“Busquets has a high football IQ and accurate defensive prediction. He and Rakitic will continue to compress Manchester City’s passing space and cut off Manchester City’s offensive direction.”
“We. That’s how we lose.”
Neuer shook his head.
He didn’t speak.
Bayern Munich did not have Gao Qi at that time.
The German goalkeeper may be the one who understands Gao Qi’s threat best.
Olympic Stadium.
The loud cheers meant that the scene was speeding up.
“Zabaletta went inside and created a safe passing environment for De Bruyne.”
“Wow! De Bruyne’s lateral pass, a wonderful arc, tore through Barcelona’s narrow defense.”
“David Silva”
“It’s Gao Qi!”
“The two rotated positions on the left rib area.”
Busquets remained calm.
As the No. 4 of La Masia, the “one third”, he successfully predicted the changes in Manchester City’s offensive chain.
but.
He didn’t force Gao Qi to take advantage like he did in the opening scene.
Instead, he let Alves, the full-back who was in the deep-lying midfield position, do the dirty work.
I maintained the rhythm of movement and formed a second line of interception near the back line of defense.
‘Everything is under control.’
‘Don’t let Gao pass the ball smoothly after getting rid of Alves.’
‘I’ll disrupt his movement flow.’
‘The next step is to simplify.’
Gao Qi raised his foot to stop the ball.
The stocky and sturdy Alves rushed over.
The Samba full-back’s body is dark, short and thick.
In the process of running.
Like a small steel cannon sprinting.
The media suddenly remembered: A long time ago, a lip-reading expert interpreted Alves’ trash talk to Gao Qi, “Do you know how many championships I have won?”
The sound of intense fighting came from the close-up sound equipment.
The tough Samba full-back was bounced away.
“Instantly focus your strength on the triangle area from elbow to hip!”
“God of War Gao Qi!”
“Physically invincible!”
Busquets approaches quickly.
He wanted to prevent Gao Qi from connecting his moves after breaking free.
Capture individual timelines.
In the world, apart from Messi, no other star can withstand the double attack of a top defensive midfielder and a top full-back.
next moment.
The Spaniard’s long legs didn’t poke anything.
A moment after the confrontation, Gao Qi landed his right foot, then lifted it up and pushed it lightly.
It seems very slow.
But it just happened to resolve Busquets’s pressing.
The moment the right foot lands again.
The Chinese star’s body and supporting foot were tilted to an exaggerated degree.
1.9 meters tall.
Touch the ball again.
Step forward to start.
Busquets looked horrified and helpless as he looked at Gao Qi who was so close to him and passed by him.
Wow!
The whole place was excited!
All the spectators applauded the wonderful performance of Manchester City’s number nine and a half!
The dominance of a giant and the elegance of Baggio.
“Power and skill.”
“Strong and gentle.”
“The truth is simple.”
“Great skill appears clumsy.”
The commentator was incoherent.
Coach Zhang pinched his thigh excitedly: It’s broken again, the strong rib fulcrum, the number nine and a half that creates space.
Pellegrini’s brain is a little slow to catch up.
The raised hand was suddenly retracted.
For fear of affecting the movement of other disciples.
Gao Qi tore apart the left flank of the red and blue giant, and the other Manchester City teammates were now crazy to occupy the space he created.
Yaya Toure tops both lines.
Morata drilled into the left side of Barcelona’s penalty area.
David Silva eats up Alves’ wing.
De Bruyne and Zabaleta cover the weak side at the far end.
the other side.
Enrique waved his hands in panic.
“quick!”
“Quickly cut off all of Gao Qi’s forward passing points.”
“The defense line hasn’t been disrupted yet, there’s still time!”
Too late.
Pique dropped back and stuck to Morata.
Mascherano stomped the grass hard, burst out with an exaggerated displacement speed, and pounced forward like a tiger, trying to block the Chinese star who was advancing at a constant speed.
Gao Qi did not pass the ball.
Constant pace.
Every touch and every button seems to be natural.
Go past Mascherano.
“It’s over!”
“Three people in a row!”
“Teammate’s position is great”
“No!”
“Gao Qi is in a better position now!”
“It turns out that he has created a space for himself.”
Gao Qi leisurely dribbled the ball into Barcelona’s penalty area.
Ter Stegen lowered his center of gravity.
The small fragments shook.
The whole person moved convulsively.
He really wants to prove his worth in the Champions League final and then replace Neuer in next year’s European Cup.
Irreplaceable.
There was no oncoming heavy artillery.
There is no arc of rotation either.
Ter Stegen was knocked down.
Gao Qi shot into the empty goal.
2:1! ! !
All the movements are so natural.
Everything was so reasonable.
The rhythm of touching the ball, adjusting the steps, changing the rhythm, and the antelope hanging the horns.
Snapped!
clap clap clap!
The Olympic applause lasts forever.
The whole world is cheering for the performance of the Chinese stars.
“The ball is in!”
“Gao Qi dribbled past four players in a row.” “He dribbled past the goalkeeper and shot into the empty net.”
“So elegant.”
“He was like a scalpel, delicately and slowly cutting through Barcelona’s defense.”
“The last number nine and a half in the wave of football tactical development.”
Manchester City teammates were a little confused for a moment: Didn’t Gao want to pass the ball over?
I wasn’t confused for too long.
Crowds of people followed the Chinese star’s footsteps to celebrate.
The wind along the Spree River seemed to be celebrating, allowing the corner flag to gently nestle against the hem of the jersey.
Gao Qi opened his arms.
Seemed to embrace all the supporters in the stands.
The response was even more enthusiastic applause and hysterical cheers.
Turn around.
He hugged his Manchester City teammates who rushed over to him.
“Gao, didn’t you say you would create space for me?”
“You get the best angle to see the goal.”
Studio.
Slow motion playback.
The audience was surprised to find that after Gao Qi defeated Alves and Busquets, Manchester City’s independent attack was able to have many advantageous spaces like a counterattack.
No matter it is passed.
Or bring your own.
Have the opportunity to break through the opponent’s defense.
How can Barcelona defend against this?
–
[Awesome! Front array eye! ]
–
【Front drive.】
–
[He gets the ball in the most dangerous area, helps his teammates absorb defensive pressure, crushes the opponent’s local area, and helps his teammates create large space. ]
–
[So cool, a one-stop shot at a steady speed, dribbling past the goalkeeper and shooting. The action is not fancy, but it is incredibly reasonable. ]
–
[So handsome, the dancer in heaven. 】
–
[In the history of football, there are no more than five people who have this special ability, right? ]
–
【Let me count.】
–
[Will Gao Qi defeat this peak MSN Barcelona team? ]
–
【The great emperor who founded the Blue Moon Dynasty.】
–
[The coronation ceremony of Emperor II. Europe has waited a long time for the second football emperor, and Germany has also waited a long time. 】
–
[Gao Qi is Chinese, what does it have to do with the Germans? Oh! German son-in-law! ]
Courtside.
Pellegrini and the old assistant coaches hugged each other excitedly.
“Boss, can we not leave Manchester City? The new coach may not be able to give Gao that much freedom.”
“But we are a transitional coaching team.”
“Now is not the time to talk about these things!”
The other side.
Enrique’s hair was messy.
“why?”
“Why was Gao able to easily break through the defense line?”
“Continue to intensify the attack!”
“Barca can’t lose to Manchester City.”
Ter Stegen was hit hard.
The body is controlled by strong negative emotions.
A talented goalkeeper.
It was a great shame to be knocked down in the penalty area on the stage of the Champions League final night.
Busquets raised his hand to the referee again.
Messi showed no expression and silently passed the ball to Neymar.
Neymar was full of confidence and ran back to the center circle with the football in his arms.
Given Manchester City’s defensive quality, he believed that he would be able to make a comeback later.
“The game continues.”
“Gao Qi sank down and didn’t take a walk with Messi this time.”
“Manchester City now has three defensive midfielders, no, David Silva and De Bruyne also sink from the wings.”
“Watch Messi’s movement.”
“The running trajectory of the arc retreat lures out Yaya Toure.”
“Don’t worry about the space in front of the formation, Rakitic consciously pushed forward.”
“Suarez goes to the wing.”
“Neymar rotates to the middle.”
“MSN also began to change its combat form during this autonomous offensive phase.”
“Gao Qi doesn’t want to play with you anymore. He heads to the front of Manchester City’s formation again, and Morata retreats to join the defense.”
The commentator and coach Zhang haven’t finished speaking yet.
Iniesta picked up speed.
Snapped!
The football was destroyed by De Bruyne and Fernandinho and slowly rolled out of bounds.
Iniesta fell helplessly to the grass.
The camera suddenly turned to Xavi on the bench.
The audience in front of the TV suddenly remembered the red and blue universe team that year.
Harvey crossed his arms over his chest.
Leaning back in the seat.
Carefully observe the changes on the green field.
The God’s perspective in my brain is running wildly.
His ability to transform dynamic information has been proven through instrument testing.
“We can’t control the ball even against Manchester City?”
The tone was helpless.
The peak dream of Ha Baibu dominating the football world came to an end early.
La Masia’s passing and controlling concept cannot be implemented.
Over the decades, countless attempts have been made to find the ultimate answer to passing and controlling.
La Masia’s experimental subjects at position 4 were declared failures one after another.
In the end, it was just a matter of dividing the functions of the La Masia No. 4 position into three and shaping the midfielder Xavi and Baibu.
Is passing and controlling really dead?
All Barcelona dreamers with red and blue blood are eager to hope that the youth training camp can produce a perfect La Masia number four who fits the perfect MSN.
The midfielder who strategizes and controls the system.
MSN that destroys all lines of defense.
The 36th minute of the game.
The stands on all sides erupted in incredible exclamations.
“Jo Hart!”
“Joe Hart has done a great job!”
“He saved a bicycle kick from Suarez!”
“Manchester City’s goalkeeper, who has been the backdrop for many world-class goals, has become MSN’s nemesis tonight.”
After making a wonderful pass, Messi subconsciously wanted to roll on the grass.
Can’t roll.
Manchester City’s counterattack is coming.
Joe Hart’s ball distribution is very poor.
But the Blue Moon has a terrifying fulcrum in the frontcourt that can hold the ball very steadily.
Catch the ball with one hand.
Swing your arms.
approach.
Before Neymar could interfere, Joe Hart swung the ball forward.
The football floated towards the center circle.
“The ball isn’t fast enough.”
“Barcelona’s high defense has plenty of time”
“Wow!”
Gao Qi soared into the air.
A header.
Pass the ball to Morata who is making a run.
After landing, he immediately turned around and rushed forward.
Pique looked at the trajectory of the ball and realized that he couldn’t just force his way through the high defense line.
Ter Stegen called on his teammates to move back.
“Morata has great skills with his feet.”
“She’s 1.9 meters tall, and her feet are big enough to embroider.”
“Get rid of Alba.”
“Through the ball!”
“Barcelona is going to be finished.”
“Come and see Gao Qi’s impact!”
Chinese fans and Manchester City fans at the Olympic Stadium went crazy again.
The empty Barcelona backcourt.
Gao Qi accelerated the moment Morata passed the ball.
He transformed into a bolt of lightning and broke through the high defense line of the Red and Blue Army.
VIP box.
Cruyff shook his head in disbelief.
“Long strides.”
“Amazing explosiveness.”
Beckenbauer hesitated to speak.
He remembered Cruyff’s famous saying: If I start running earlier than others, my speed will appear to be faster.
The Middle Eastern oil guys next door are dancing with joy.
Mascherano and Pique had no time to force the ball outside or drive away the opponent.
Can’t keep up.
The timing of starting after turning around was half a beat slow.
Gao Qi left him behind.
Ter Stegen felt as if every pore on his body was pricked by tiny needles.
Barcelona’s German goalkeeper wants to become a “gatekeeper” like Neuer.
This time.
Definitely can’t be outdone!
Bah!
An explosion that resounded through the sky.
Interrupted Ter Stegen’s transformation.
There is not even a chance for a one-on-one meeting.
The Chinese star actually chose a long shot in advance?
The football took off from the ground, whizzing and spinning towards Barcelona’s goal.
With its fierce and domineering force, it can crush everything in its path.
The elegant trajectory is as brilliant as a meteor.
A long arc shot that combines both hardness and softness!
Everyone opened their mouths in surprise.
Enrique stared at Gao Qi’s shooting posture in a daze, and the pride on his face was gradually replaced by despair.
The turbulent net once again brought cheers from the Olympic Stadium.
3:1! ! !
