Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Pei Wei and Kafuer had a very relaxed chat, but Mourinho was not so relaxed. Although the current situation on the field is not considered unfavorable to Newcastle, the appearance of Rijkaard in the referee's locker room made it more difficult.  He felt a little heavy in his heart - Newcastle's defensive tactics are to compress the opponent's offensive space, which naturally involves physical confrontation and fouls. If the referee favors Barcelona, ??just showing a few yellow cards severely will cause great damage to Newcastle's defense.  Trouble.

    So from the beginning of the second half of the game, he has been paying close attention to the referee's call scale. If the penalty for physical confrontation suddenly becomes harsh, then he will remind the players to pay attention to the foul.

    However, judging from the current situation, the referee did not seem to change the penalty scale in the first half. It seems that when he and Pei Wei knew that Rijkaard entered the referee's locker room during the halftime break, Frisk  It seems that he is wary and does not dare to be too biased towards Barcelona.

    If it is just a normal bias towards the home team, then there will be no problem.

    At this time, Newcastle launched a counterattack. Nie Fei passed Ibrahimovic directly in the midfield, but Puyol used a beautiful forward defense to intercept the ball in advance. Barcelona quickly counterattacked, but unfortunately Iniesta passed the ball through  Eto'o's ball was also intercepted midway by Hart.

    After two back and forth attacks, Barcelona's energy seemed to have faded a lot, their offense began to slow down, and Newcastle also had a chance to breathe.

    Mourinho breathed a sigh of relief.  This stalemate is exactly what he wants to see. The longer Newcastle leads, the more beneficial it is to them. This is what Newcastle is best at after training.

    Mourinho predicted well. After losing the energy after the opening, Barcelona's offense began to fall into the same situation as in the first half.  It is difficult to organize the offense into the penalty area and can only create shots through long shots. However, in front of Cech who is in excellent form, unless it is an extremely abnormal world wave.  Otherwise, it would be difficult for long-range shots to pass through Cech's fingers. Instead, Newcastle's frontcourt players are often able to create threats in counterattacks through their outstanding personal abilities.

    After Harvey¡¯s long-range shot was firmly held in Cech¡¯s arms, Newcastle launched a counterattack again!

    From the moment Cech started the attack by throwing the ball, to Ribery moving to the center and passing the ball to Nie Fei on the right, the whole process only took no less than ten seconds!

    "Return to defense!" Puyol shouted loudly and ordered his teammates to return to defense while running into the penalty area

    ::The defender's assist ability is very strong, but compared with his offense.  His defense is a notch lower, not to mention that Nie Fei is now at his peak, and Van Bronhorst is nearly 30 years old.

    After getting rid of the Dutch defender, Nie Fei continued to dribble the ball and looked up to observe the situation in the penalty area.  He didn't cut inside, but made a cross!

    The ball passed over the heads of the four players on both sides of the penalty area and fell quickly to the back.  Ribery and Belletti were desperately rushing towards the landing point, constantly fighting for position.

    Belletti took the lead and blocked Ribery's path with his body, but Ribery was pressing behind him. He did not dare to stop the ball in the penalty area. If it was cut off, it would be fatal.  Mistake!

    In panic, Belletti did not stop the ball, but used his chest to knock the ball towards Valdez in front of the goal. This choice can be said to be correct, because Valdez was not far away from him and could save it with his hands.  Valdez could easily pounce on the ball, but it can be said to be incorrect, because now Newcastle's two forwards and Barcelona's two defenders are entangled in the penalty area!

    Seeing Belletti pass the ball back to the goalkeeper, Drogba quickly got rid of Marquez's entanglement, and with a sliding tackle, he was about to intercept the ball in the middle!

    Valdez reacted quickly. Although Drogba poked the ball first, he was unable to control it. Valdez, who was lying on the ground, stretched out his hand and held the ball under his body. Although Drogba had already closed his foot,  But he still hit Valdez!

    Valdes let out a scream. Drogba was so big that it was not easy to bear, not to mention the momentum brought by sliding. The Barcelona goalkeeper was hit hard now.

    Drogba immediately got up and began to lean over to express condolences to Valdez - even though he didn't mean to do so, he still bumped into the opponent after all, so he had to show some kindness.

    Seeing Drogba like this, the Barcelona players had nothing to say. After all, the Barcelona players who were close could see clearly that Drogba had already stopped his feet just now, and what Valdez had to bear was only Drogba's body.  It's just a collision, there won't be any problem.

    Valdez was carried off by Barcelona¡¯s team doctor, and the referee Frisk waved Drogba to pass.

    ?Luo Ba thought he wanted to warn himself a few words, so he walked over with a smile on his face and when he got closer, the smile on his face solidified.

    Frisk expressionlessly took out a yellow card from his pocket and flashed it in front of Drogba!

    Drogba has already received a yellow card in the first half!  This means that¡­¡­

    Sure enough, Frisk quickly took out another red card from his pocket and waved it in front of Drogba!

    The entire Camp Nou was in an uproar, and then the Barcelona fans burst into loud cheers, suppressing all the curses from the Newcastle fans.

    No one is a fool. The fans present can see that Barcelona wants to attack now, but there is no good way to defeat Newcastle's defense. Newcastle's counterattack makes it impossible for them to attack with all their strength. If Newcastle loses one player  , then the power of the counterattack will be reduced a lot, which is extremely beneficial to Barcelona's offense.

    Amidst the noise in the stadium, Mourinho stood up with a loud sound and looked at Frisk on the court with a livid face. Kafuer pointed at Frisk next to him and was trembling.  Seeing that he was speechless, Pei Wei jumped out, pointed at the court and yelled: "***, is this a foul? Even if it is a foul, can I give you a card? If you can give me a card in this way,  Cards, what else is there to do in football? How the hell do you referee?¡±

    The fourth official came over with a sullen face and said to Pei Wei seriously: "Mr. Pei Wei, please pay attention to your wording!"

    "Go to hell with your words!" Pei Wei jumped on the sidelines and scolded: "Are you going to say that *** video footage cannot be used as evidence for the referee's penalty? Don't think I don't know that bastard Rijkaard is in the middle  Entering your referee's lounge during the break! This is a complete conspiracy! Look, this thing is not over yet!"

    Frisk, who was walking towards the sidelines with an unkind look on his face, heard Pei Wei's insults that had no identity at all, just like a street gangster, and his anger became a little more intense. However, every word of Pei Wei's words hit him hard.  In his heart, after hesitating for a while, he still did not show Pei Wei a red card and send him off the field. He just said seriously to Pei Wei: "Please go back to your seat! Otherwise I will send you off!"  "

    Pei Wei looked at him with a sneer, until Frisk felt a little nervous before walking back with a sneer.

    Mourinho patted Pei Wei on the thigh: "Forget it, there is no benefit in arguing with him now This game must be played as it should be."

    Pei Wei heard the chill in Mourinho's words. He nodded, then gritted his teeth and said: "This guy is looking for death, so don't blame me I'll see if he can still eat from the referee's meal.  Go down Blatter's Swiss fellow - so what!"

    *********************************************

    Drogba's fate, on the surface, it seems that Newcastle is just missing a striker and has no impact on their defense. However, in fact, Drogba's physical pressing in the frontcourt not only made Barcelona's defenders feel very  It is troublesome, and it also relieves a lot of pressure on the defense. Among Newcastle's four attackers in the frontcourt, the other three are not very good at defensive ability. His end is a big blow to Newcastle's overall strength.

    You must know that Newcastle's defense has never relied solely on defenders. Especially in this game, when Barcelona attacks, the first line of defense to block is the forward, and Drogba is the main figure in the first line of blocking defense.  .

    Now that Drogba is off the field, Newcastle's entire defensive system immediately has a huge loophole. It is like a precision-operated machine. Without a seemingly inconspicuous gear, it will immediately collapse.

    Mourinho gritted his teeth and muttered in his heart. He had no good solution now. There was still nearly half an hour before the end of the game. The only thing he could do now was to continue to persevere.

    He quickly made substitutions. Kufuor came on and replaced Nie Fei. Nie Fei was not helpful defensively, and his speed was also a bit slower than Ribery. There were holes in the overall defense.  Under this situation, Mourinho can only make the defense more solid by increasing the number of defenders.

    Five defenders, three midfielders, and a single forward. Three of the midfielders include two defensive midfielders. Mourinho arranged this lineup with the intention of carrying the defense to the end. As long as he can survive the remaining half hour,  Everything is easy to say.

    ??Besides, we have already scored a goal in the away game. If it is a tie or only a loss by one goal, it can be considered a passable result.

    The red card Drogba received is the first red card Newcastle has received in an official game since the beginning of this season.?? red card.
