In slow motion, two replays flashed by. One was Eto'o's shot just now, which was also not fast and was barely cleared by Bayern's No. 6 Demichelis; the other was Messi's amazing goal just now. While everyone's attention was attracted by Iniesta who had inserted into the middle, he received a steady pass from his teammate when no one was watching, and then fooled the goalkeeper!
Andy shook his head: "Barcelona's dribbling skills are excellent, Messi's footwork is delicate, and their rhythm is very good. Barcelona 1-0 Bayern Munich."
In the live footage, Barcelona blew up the long balloon belonging to Messi! The balloon man waved his hands and saluted their star Messi from afar!
In front of the big screen, Ferguson was deep in thought, and suddenly asked: "Why can Messi score goals? Who can tell me?"
Vidic was the first to speak, and he must have been asking if their defender had escaped: "The defender responsible for marking him was negligent. When he just got in and received the ball, there was a moment when no opponent noticed it."
Goalkeeper Van der Sar said: "Bout may be nervous, his body weight shifted too early, resulting in him not receiving the ball, the ball was not fast enough."
Ferguson nodded and asked the forwards watching the show: "What do you think?"
The Manchester United forwards who were still evaluating Messi's kick in their minds were startled. What the hell, is it the fault of them as forwards for Messi's goal?
Rooney said confidently: "The best defense is offense. If their counterattack cannot effectively suppress the opponent, Barcelona can have no worries and quickly counterattack at any time."
Seeing that his friends had said everything they could, Ronaldo decided to consider it from Messi's perspective: "As an excellent striker, in Messi's situation, I would definitely be able to score this goal if I were in his place."
After everyone answered, they looked at Sir Alex Ferguson, but it was hard to tell from his face whether he was satisfied or dissatisfied.
But it doesn’t matter. After all, this is the style of the coach. They believe in not showing their emotions and not panicking.
Rooney watched Barcelona pass the ball back and forth in the midfield and he spoke again: "I think they will score another goal soon."
Everyone nodded, yes, Barcelona is in very good shape. There shouldn't be just one in the first half.
It started raining at Camp Nou, and the rain was getting heavier. The rain was mixed with the smell of earth and sweat, which was not a pleasant smell at all.
Bayern's attack failed and Barcelona found an opportunity. They moved forward and Ivan followed them. There seemed to be nothing wrong with Bayern's big four, they ran fast and knew to keep an eye on Messi.
This doesn't seem to be a problem. It's safe to put Casillas here because the goalkeeper has his own players in front of him.
Xavi dribbled the ball and he found Messi easily.
The Bayern defenders were on edge.
Irving couldn't help but compare Bayern with Liverpool in the previous game. Liverpool knew that they couldn't defend against Robben's running, so they cut off all his possibilities of receiving the ball in advance, while Bayern's defenders returned to defense much faster than Real Madrid, which was good, but they followed the ball as a whole, that is, they focused on defending whoever had the ball.
They seem to prefer defending Messi when he has the ball.
If Real Madrid's defense can score 50 points, then Bayern's defense can only score 70 points. Their four or five players were so busy staring at Messi who had the ball that they forgot that Eto'o was next to him. Messi made a straight pass to his teammate easily, and the latter did not need to worry about being blocked by the defender. Bayern was so bold that they did not even have to worry about positioning.
Eto'o's position was at a completely similar angle to when Messi scored the goal just now. His shot also had a completely similar goal route and a completely similar speed to Messi's!
This time his angle is better! This time Butt was not as lucky as before, and no defender came to block him!
Eto'o scored a goal through the crotch!
Andy continued to tear the pieces apart before shouting in a loud voice that had not yet calmed down: "Messi!! Messi pass to his teammates! Eto'o! Gooooal!!!"
Richard: "In the 12th minute of the game, Barcelona scored another goal, 2-0 Bayern Munich! The goal was scored by No. 9 Eto'o!"
Butt, who was penetrated in the crotch, was confused:! ! !
To be honest, before today he had been feeling sorry for Cassie, but now he couldn't help but feel sorry for himself.
Casillas didn't have any teammates to help him and had to fight alone, which made his colleagues feel distressed and moved to tears. But who can tell him why he can make Barcelona so powerful even though he has a lot of teammates? !
It’s better not to have it! At least it doesn't block his view and doesn't interfere with his judgment! Flip the table!
He said that it is better to rely on himself. He thought that he would feel safer with teammates. How naive!
Several Manchester United players who were drinking water were sprayed with water. They coughed and looked at Rooney.
Rooney had no idea that he was endowed with divine powers by some strange thing. He even commented: "I think the next Barcelona player..."
"Ahem!" Ferguson interrupted and glared at him.
Did he let these brats come and watch some happy football? Not vigilant at all! Don’t they think carefully about how they should respond if they are the next to face Barcelona?
So after this goal, Sir Alex Ferguson started asking questions again.
Goalkeeper Van der Sar has the most say. He said that since a series of tactics centered around Messi were slowly getting on track, Messi's position in the team has transitioned from shadow striker to the right side.
This is undoubtedly a very successful transformation, and Messi has retained his original elusive forward runs and ability to engage the opponent, which makes it difficult for opponents to take the overall situation into consideration when facing him.
Bayern's backcourt is certainly flawed, but there is nothing that can be done about it. It's not because of their own stupid teammates, but because the enemy is too strong.
On the field, after scoring the goal, Eto'o circled around and ran towards the corner area on Ivan's side!
Messi, who assisted, ran towards him quickly with his arms open. It seemed like Messi had done this action many times and was very skilled. He jumped lightly into Eto'o's arms and hugged his neck!
Eto'o picked up Messi like a child! Then he just held Messi like that and jogged to the corner area!
Message Board:
"Oh my God! This Barcelona No. 10 is so cute, he might be the team's favorite."
"Messi: Am I awesome? I want a hug!"
"Messi: If you think I'm great, just hug me!"
"Why do they like to run to this position so much? Is this angle more photogenic?"
"I don't know about that, but they are quite good at choosing. Our Ivan has entered the camera. I give them a thumbs up."
The other Barcelona players came over one after another, their arms around each other's shoulders. Iniesta made a camera gesture in front of them. Messi was still sitting in Eto'o's arms, and everyone smiled and made the "Y" sign.
Iniesta gestured and simulated the sound of a camera shutter with his mouth.
#Sure enough, this location is facing the light and suitable for taking photos.
Ivan's attention was attracted by their movements. He turned his head and looked. The celebration action has not changed at all.
This scene was taken as an interaction by the camera, and the fans who were watching the live broadcast on the Internet captured this animated picture. In the animated picture, Messi was carried to the sidelines by his teammates, and Ivan was standing beside him, watching with his head tilted.
This GIF was interpreted differently by fans and netizens. Some said that Ivan was envious of Messi because he was in great shape while he himself could not play football; some said that Ivan was evaluating the childishness of Messi's action of jumping into his teammates' arms; others said that Ivan was attracted by Messi's cuteness and he also wanted to try hugging Messi in this way... Oh! After all, no teammate has ever been able to let him perform such an "exciting" and cute celebration move, right?
The female fans started to have wild thoughts, wow! If you think about it carefully, being held by Alvin like this is really exciting!
Although they probably won't have any chance, is there any big shot willing to give it a try? Let them feel it from the front and see how beautiful the scene is!
Xiao Tiantian is so sweet, she jumps on him when he is not prepared! He won't be angry!
Only then did Messi decide to get off his teammate. Eto'o, taking care of his short legs, bent his knees to allow Messi to land comfortably.
The rain got heavier and the lens was covered with mist. Eto'o passed by the camera and gestured as if to demonstrate that this was Barcelona.
Guardiola rushed out from the bench. He did not have any of the elegance that a man in suit pants should have. He just jumped out a few steps, spread his legs on the spot, half-crouched in a horse stance, clenched his left fist, and waved his right hand toward the sky.
The camera quickly flashed across the helplessness of the Bayern players, Ribery's disappointed gaze, Toni's lost look back, and Butt's face full of astonishment, which formed a sharp contrast with the joyful embrace of Eto'o and Messi.
Bayern: I always feel like this game is half over.
Barcelona: It's OK, we can enjoy the game.
Weber blew the whistle, signaling that it was almost time for them to celebrate.
This is Barcelona's home court, but the referee is used to big storms and does not take the home court pressure seriously.
After kicking off from the center circle, Bayern still couldn't make a breakthrough. They lost the ball while passing it around. Barcelona made a routine pass, but Eto'o was fouled by Bayern while dribbling the ball, and Weber gave a free kick in the frontcourt.
The Bayern coach couldn't stand the performance of these players who were obviously not in good shape. Even though it was not a home game, their main player Klose was injured. This was not the performance that a Bundesliga champion should have!
Barcelona's free kick flew away, but it didn't matter. Puyol threw the ball out of bounds, Henry and Iniesta passed the ball directly, they passed the ball from the front midfield to the penalty area, and then passed it from the left side to the small penalty area. Bayern made a mistake in clearing the ball and the ball fell at Iniesta's feet.
Messi got the ball again. They were sure to get the ball. Messi dribbled into the penalty area again!
The Manchester United players watched the game very seriously. They were observing Barcelona's offensive tactics carefully.
Rooney didn't say anything this time. The others were still thinking that this goal was probably a sure thing, so they were ready to see how Messi would change direction to deceive the defender.
In the end, Messi didn't make it! Messi wanted to pass the ball, but ended up falling to the ground!
The Barcelona players in the penalty area raised their hands, signaling the referee to give a penalty!
Bayern's No. 30 Lehr, who tripped Messi, quickly raised his hands to show his innocence. He looked at Messi's exaggerated appearance of falling upside down, with surprise written all over his face.
God is my witness, he was really just preparing to step out to intercept, but the Barcelona No. 10 was too agile and he tripped over his calf and fell! I really don’t blame him!
The Barcelona players were very loyal to the little cutie Messi and they surrounded the referee Weber.
Weber walked over with firm steps, and he walked with the wind!
He doesn't look very good!
Ivan noticed with his sharp eyes that Weber had already put one hand into his trouser pocket, where the yellow card was exposed.
Messi was indeed tripped, but the Bayern defender did not seem to do it on purpose, so should the yellow card be given to... ?
Slow motion begins.
Andy: "Oh! Let's look at this replay. Messi missed the man, the ball had already passed him, he accelerated forward... and he tripped!"
Richard: "That Bayern defender is not so innocent."
Ivan hesitated for a moment. He didn't know whether Weber had seen the position clearly or not, and whether he should give Weber some advice.
Weber's expression didn't look like he was going to award a penalty to Barcelona.
Then, Weber’s decision came to his earphones, and the other party clearly told the group of Barcelona players: "Your number 10 dived!"
Before Alvin had time to react, Barcelona coach Guardiola, who was not far behind him, jumped up!
He was about to protest to his players, but what did he see? !
Does this blind referee dislike his favorite player? !
oh! What a shitty penalty!
The Bayern players were as quiet as chickens. They hoped that the referee would make such a decision. An extra penalty? Are you kidding? They are all behind 0-2!
Weber didn't care at all. He took out the yellow card and showed it to Messi who was just getting up!
Messi was completely confused!
Are there still players these days who are dribbling the ball in the penalty area and about to shoot, but get booked after being tripped by the opposing defender? !
#Of course, he is not the first and not the last.
Messi rushed towards Webber, he couldn't believe it! He protested loudly to Weber! However, his English was very poor, and he could only stumble to express his anger: "Mr. Referee, I definitely did not dive, I never dive, it was really him who tripped me!"
Weber looked at him and he roughly knew what the Barcelona player wanted to say. But it is obvious that he has his own tendencies and judgments in his mind. How can he, a Premier League referee, know so much about how Barcelona plays? Never fake a fall? Sorry, he has heard too many excuses like this, and he only believes his own eyes.
Oh, of course, there are players who don't dive, and his student - the linesman standing on the sidelines was one of them.
Guardiola is furious! He protested wildly to the fourth official Atkinson! He angrily scolded the referee Weber and the fourth official who blocked his way!
Seeing that the referee was too lazy to pay attention to him, Messi turned around and saw Ivan on the sidelines, and suddenly he had an idea!
He stopped Weber and asked his teammates who were good at English to help translate: "Mr. Referee, maybe you didn't see it clearly? Do you want to consider asking the opinions of the linesman who is closer?"
After hearing his words, Weber paused, but he obviously didn't listen to the other party's words. As if he wanted to make him give up, or to test his student, he looked at Ivan calmly and said -
Weber's voice came from Ivan's earphone without any fluctuations: "Ivan, what do you think?"
