Chapter 401 Conflict in the Barcelona Locker Room
Chapter 401 Barcelona locker room conflict
"The half-time whistle blows and the first half is over! Going to work totally belongs, Atlético de Madrid! Although Barcelona had the upper hand in possession during these forty-five minutes, created the scoring chances and grabbed him It was Atlético de Madrid!! In the first half, Atlético de Madrid beat Barcelona in terms of tactical pertinence. It made a fantastic start, and then scored a goal on the counterattack! In the end, the score in the first half was 0-2, and Barcelona scored two goals at home. Fall behind!" Aduris said.
"Barcelona is in danger now. It's reasonable to say that it's a long season, and losing a game is really nothing - even if Barcelona lose this game, they have only lost three games so far, but the terrible thing is, It's quite possible that they lost two of their three games to Atlético de Madrid...their title contenders." Mateo shook his head, "When your rivals have six points on you It's hard to overtake opponents in the league, especially in La Liga."
Guardiola knows this too, and his knowledge of La Liga will never be doubted.
What the consequences of losing this game are, Guardiola knows very well.
Now Guardiola is not thinking about winning, but... not losing!
A football game, even if you can't win, try not to lose.
Two goals behind, if Barcelona can tie the score in the second half, Barcelona can continue to maintain a four-point gap with Atletico Madrid after this game. Although this gap is still behind, it is still seven points behind the opponent after losing. Much better.
Guardiola looked solemn, bowed his head and quickly walked into the player tunnel.
He realizes that if he doesn't find a way to deal with Atlético Madrid soon, it's not just this season... Maybe next season, next season, Barcelona still won't be able to get something out of Atlético Madrid.
This is unbearable for Guardiola, and now Atletico Madrid is a far bigger threat than Real Madrid.
Their lineup is young, their tactics are clear, and their bench is not bad.
For such a team to impact the status of Real Madrid and Barcelona in the La Liga arena, it seems that it is not a fantasy.
Of course, Guardiola certainly wants to win if he can overtake.
Now Atletico Madrid is only fighting on a single line. Compared with Barcelona, which also has to take care of the Champions League, they put all their energy on the league. As long as Atletico Madrid maintains a stable state, Barcelona basically has no possibility of catching up.
Guardiola walked into the home team's dressing room.
He didn't wait long before the Barcelona players returned to the locker room one by one.
The atmosphere in the home team's locker room was depressed. Before the game, many Barcelona players expressed their determination in front of the media, saying that they must go all out in this game to wash away the shame of losing to their opponents three times before.
Who knows that today, the old shame is not yet snowed, and the new shame is filled!
Barcelona, the top giants team in Europe, in their own home, in the most glorious period of these seasons, encountered an opponent like Atletico Madrid!
Guardiola washed his face in the bathroom, calmed himself down a little, and went back to the dressing room.
He looked at the silent players and said suddenly.
"Actually, such a day will come back sooner or later."
The Barcelona players looked up at Guardiola, not knowing what to do.
"We are a strong Barcelona, we have won everything in these seasons, we have reached the top. When a person reaches the top, what does he do?"
"He'll slide off the top! Like a parabola!"
"It got to the top and then it took a nosedive, that's pretty obvious! Just like you guys."
Guardiola waved his hand.
"You've also reached the top, and now it's also going downhill.
At first I thought that you were still young and that you could continue to improve. Now it seems that I think too much! "
There was a commotion in the Barcelona dressing room.
Some players stared at Guardiola in amazement, Puyol suddenly stood up.
"What are you talking about?!! Pep!!!!"
Puyol and Guardiola were teammates for a long time at Barcelona, so the two are technically equals.
"You...how can you say that!"
Puyol pointed to Guardiola's hands trembling. If it was someone else, the Barcelona captain would have slapped him long ago, but... The person in front of him is Guardiola.
The players in the locker room are nervous. If the captain of the team and the head coach have a head-on conflict, let alone this game, this season... Barcelona may also hang.
"Isn't it?" Guardiola spread his hands.
"Is not it?!!!"
Guardiola repeated it!
"If not, how does this explain the current situation!?"
"We're at the end! The Barcelona dynasty is at the end!! You! Me! And the trophies in our honours room, I'm sure they won't have any new trophies in for a long time! !"
Guardiola growled.
Sobbing came from the corner of the locker room.
Bo Yang, and some young players started to cry.
"If you behave like you do today! Our era is over. Atletico Madrid can beat us like this. Next season, there will be teams that follow suit, not just in La Liga, but in the Premier League, Bundesliga, Serie A, The teams that have their eye on our throne...they will do the same against us."
Guardiola sat in a chair and looked at his players.
"What are we going to do! Pep!"
Messi came over, his eyes were calm.
Guardiola looked at him, Messi looked at Guardiola.
The two looked at each other for a while.
"I'm afraid it will be very difficult for us to win this game!"
"I want to try it!"
Guardiola's mouth twitched, he wanted to laugh, but he quickly held back.
"you alone?!"
Guardiola questioned.
"Anyone else want to try it?!"
Messi looks at the other Barcelona players.
"I!!"
Iniesta stood up.
"Forty-five minutes left!"
This is Harvey!
"And I!"
Villa also stood up.
......
The Barcelona players stood up one by one.
Puyol looked at the players behind him, then turned to Guardiola.
"You better figure it out, Pep!" Puyol said.
Guardiola also stood up.
He saw the look in the eyes of the players and Guardiola was delighted.
He is sure that as long as Barcelona give their best, the players will regain their confidence. There's definitely more to play in this game!
"We continue to strengthen our offense in the second half!"
Guardiola moved the tactical board over.
"We are already two goals behind and we have nowhere to go except attacking. Atlético de Madrid defensively is tight, so.... we need more patience, Atletico Madrid players are human and they can have trouble concentrating So, until then, we need to control the ball, pass the ball faster in the frontcourt, intersperse between the two halves, disrupt their defensive formation, if we have the opportunity... . Immediately kick and shoot!!!"
Speed up the passing speed, intersperse quickly in the frontcourt, and shoot more.
If these routines are heard by the players of Atletico Madrid, they may think that Guardiola and Gao Bo have changed their minds...
That's right!
Guardiola intends to beat the barbaric.
He writes and draws on the war speed version, and the attacking routine above definitely has the shadow of Atlético de Madrid!
Such a fast and direct attack method, Guardiola has long found that it is actually very suitable for Barcelona to use in certain games.
The Barcelona players' eyes gradually brightened.
Guardiola undoubtedly painted a very sharp attacking blueprint.
