Chapter 38: Conquering Camp Nou!
Real Madrid fans who came from afar gave a huge cheer, and the distant Madrid City was cheering like thunder!
Alice shouted at Tang Jue excitedly: "Dear! I love you!"
Fu Yajun beside Alice shouted in Chinese: "Tang Jue, I love you!"
Alice understood, but there was no jealous expression on her face. The "love" in Fu Yajun's mouth was not the love between men and women.
...
In the command area, Shuster nodded and applauded. He was completely immersed in the joy of scoring the goal and put the fight between the two behind his head. Rijkaard, not far away, applauded Tang Jue's wonderful goal after disappointment. In the stands, Barcelona fans gave thunderous applause to Tang Jue after a brief silence.
They came here to watch exciting games. Barcelona and Real Madrid fans have this tradition. As long as the opponent's players perform well, they will applaud the player. However, it is not easy to get the recognition of their picky eyes. Zidane once conquered Barcelona fans, and Ronaldinho at his peak also conquered Real Madrid fans.
Without exception, they conquered each other's fans through their wonderful performances. Now, Tang Jue has conquered Barcelona fans through his wonderful performances!
...
Tang Jue raised his head and let out a long whistle amid the thunderous applause!
Henry and others flew over happily, and Casillas slapped his fists in his penalty area to celebrate...
Puyor's hearing the thunderous applause from the home fans, looked at the goal in the goal in frustration...
In the VIP seat, Blatter clapped and said loudly in Platini's ear: "He is just as unreasonable as he is on the court."
Platini heard what Blatter meant, and he raised his eyebrows and said, "There are too few players with personality in football now. Thinking about the past, Maradona was unruly. He won the love of fans around the world. Players with distinct personalities are more likely to be recognized by fans. Cantona is not only loved by Manchester United fans, but also by fans of many other countries."
Blatt shook his head and said, "It is a good thing to have a distinct personality, but be careful. He has done a little too much."
Platini knew that Blatt likes players who have no negative news, such as Beckenham. He said in private that Real Madrid let Beckenham go this season was a huge mistake.
Platini frowned slightly, and there was something bad about him in his heart. Could this person be attacked Tang?
...
In the VIP seat, the senior executives of the two clubs had different expressions. Real Madrid executives were very excited, and Calderon hugged Valdano beside him. Barcelona executives were very depressed. Chairman Laporta and Vice Chairman Sandro Rosel had a gloomy face. Until now in the first half, Barcelona has not created any more threats except Ronaldinho's shot.
If Barcelona continues to play like this, it is very likely that they will lose the game. If they lose this game, they will almost lose the possibility of competing for the La Liga championship.
The game started over with the complex psychology of Barcelona's senior management. Barcelona began to put pressure on Real Madrid, but their playing style still did not change. They looked for opportunities through ball control and short pass penetration. Real Madrid players knew that there was not much time left in the first half, so they actively pressed and did not give Barcelona a chance to shoot.
Time passed quickly, three minutes later. The referee blew the whistle to the end of the first half. The players of both sides walked towards the locker room, and they were going to rest. Calderon suppressed his inner impulse and did not go to the Real Madrid locker room. He decided to mediate after the game was over.
...
ESPN began to summarize the first half: "Barcelona's offense was completely suppressed by Real Madrid's tight press and did not show its due level. Real Madrid's defense has always been doing well, and Casillas made a great save to ensure the goal is not lost."
"Real Madrid's offense is divided into two stages. Ten minutes before the game, they used long passes to organize the offense. Obviously, this method is not effective. Don and Henry couldn't get the football at all, let alone shots. After that, Real Madrid adjusted their tactics and launched the offense through short passes. This tactic has a good effect, and they also got three good shots."
"But the real solution to the problem is still Don. He broke through the encirclement organized by five Barcelona players through a quick counterattack, bypassed Valdes, and sent the football into the empty goal. This is Don's typical goal-scoring method, very direct, very lethal, and makes people feel powerless."
"Barcelona should be more aggressive in the second half, with more straight passes and less crosses, and more shots, so as to break through Real Madrid's goal."
...
The home team's locker room was depressing.
Etoo nagged: "Hey, if it were me, I would have scored. If that single shot was made, the situation would not be like this now."
He was full of complaints about Ronaldinho. Ronaldinho's face darkened and said, "Who doesn't want to score football into the goal? Humph, you're talking about it now easily. If it were you, you might not be able to score."
The two started arguing like this, Puyol shook his head and sighed. There have been too many such disputes this season. Rijkald shook his head and said loudly: "Okay, don't talk about both of you. The past is over. What we have to consider now is the second half of the game."
Etoo glanced at Ronaldinho and said loudly to the head coach: "Coach, I think our offense should be adjusted in the second half, not always placed on the left, but on the right."
Barcelona's left-wing offense is mainly Ronaldinho, who is Barcelona's biggest card now. Etoho's meaning is very obvious. Rijcard should give up Ronaldinho and take him as the core of the offensive.
Ronaldinho's face looked very ugly, Messi lowered his head and looked at his toes. He could not speak for such things. Rijcard began to persuade Etoo: "You did a good job in the first half and almost created a goal. In the second half, you should continue to develop your style, pass high-quality balls, and contribute to the team."
Etoo looked at Ronaldinho proudly and said, "I can pass the ball, but I'm afraid someone will waste opportunities again. It's better to pass a few more balls to me, and I will definitely be able to break through their goal!"
Ronaldinho's face was so gloomy that he could unscrew the water, but he didn't say anything. He was already behind in terms of momentum without scoring the single shot.
The Barcelona locker room is in chaos. The Real Madrid locker room is not calm at this moment.
After a brief joy, Schuster returned to the locker room and his face began to be gloomy. The player changed his tactics without authorization. He had lost control of the team and now he was going to regain control.
"It is a good thing for us to lead one goal in the first half. You did a very good job in the defense in the first half. They curbed Barcelona's smooth passes. We should continue like this in the second half, using our body and skills to keep in touch with Barcelona players, and their physical confrontation is very average."
He changed his voice and said, "As for the attack... why do you change without authorization?"
Shuster really couldn't help it anymore and could not tolerate this situation to continue. If that was the case, what else would he mean as the head coach?
When players and coaches conflict, players will fight back in their own way, and Tang Jue is no exception. Most players choose to be unproactive in the game. The team's performance can be imagined. They vent their dissatisfaction through failure. The head coach will undoubtedly bear the responsibility for the team's failure, so that the players complete their counterattack indirectly.
But Tang is definitely not such a person. The football he pursues is the football of victory, so his choice of resistance is different. Through lobbying, he convinces his teammates to embark on the road of rebellion and adjusts his tactics by himself in the game. This is a way to overturn the head coach.
Seeing Shuster attack at this moment, Tang Jue knew that he should stand up at this time.
"This is my idea. If you have any opinions, just point them directly at me. There is no need to blame them." Tang Jue said to the coach.
Shuster frowned and asked, "Do you have to go to the opposite of me?"
There was joy in Fanny's eyes. Now he had very few opportunities to play. Tang Jue and Henry occupied the position of the starting main striker. He only started in some unimportant games, and more time was to play on the bench. If Tang Jue had a stalemate with the head coach, he had the chance to occupy the starting position.
Tang Jue shook his head and said, "I have never stood on the opposite side of anyone. I am standing on the football field just to win. Your offensive tactics are a mistake in this kind of weather, so we need to change the tactics. But you have not ordered the change of tactics for a long time. We have to change it ourselves."
"I know, you feel uncomfortable if I do this, but there is nothing you can do about it. Are you not pursuing victorious football?"
Tang Jue shifted his focus to the concept of football. He hoped that Shuster would understand why they rebelled. He did not ask Shuster to forgive him. But he wanted to have a clear conscience in his heart.
Fanny shouted: "Don't change the subject, you just have to stand opposite to the coach!"
Tang Jue frowned and looked at Fanny and said, "I think it's better not to jump out at this time. You are an old player and have had glory. Now you are old. What you need to do is to unite the team instead of splitting the team."
Seeing that the scene was a little out of control, Casillas quickly stood up to persuade him, and more players participated in the persuasion. In this way, the conflict in the locker room was temporarily suppressed.
Tang Jue didn't take Fanny seriously at all. In his eyes, Vieira could handle it. A outdated Fanny was not worth thinking about how to do it. Anyway, he had already grasped most of the power in the locker room in his hand.
...
No one expected that the two giants in La Liga had a dispute at the same time during the intermission.
The second half came as scheduled, and Tang Jue showed a good competitive state at the beginning of the game. Eighteen seconds into the second half, Sneider scored a ball in the air and directly found Henry on the penalty area line. Henry did not seek a stop, but directly passed the football to Tang Jue on the left with his chest.
The second half of the game just started, and Barcelona's players did not enter the competitive state. Tang Jue took a step forward, shook off Puyol, who had not yet been fully focused, raised his right leg and swung his fiercely towards the football!
Tang Jue wants to volley directly!
Puyor seemed to wake up suddenly, quickly lifted his right leg and tried to block Tang Jue's shooting route. However, his reaction was still slow.
"Bang!..." With a crisp sound, Tang Jue's right ankle hit the middle and upper part of the back of the football. The moment the football left his ankle, his ankle suddenly lifted up!
After the crisp sound, the football flew over Puyor's right foot, and flew into the goal from the left side of the goal like a cannonball!
The ball has entered!
Two to zero!
At this moment, the big screen of the stadium is displayed at twenty-one seconds!
This is a lightning goal!
Chapter completed!
