The green devil

Chapter 284 Critical!Suarez scores

Barcelona's strength has declined slightly compared to last season, but the front trident still has the strongest attack power in the five major leagues.

Messi, Neymar, and Suarez are all superstars who can pass and shoot.

To guard any of them, at least two defensive players are needed.

What's more, there are midfielders like Iniesta and Busquez who are good at passing the ball behind this trident.

The Barcelona trident attacked in the frontcourt, and the Espanyol had no way to expand the formation.

Otherwise, it will definitely be broken into a sieve.

The formation is shrinking, and the distance from the opponent's goal is too far. The Spaniard trident of Zhao Yang, Moreno and Caicedo will not be able to play an advantage.

They can only look forward to the opportunity to counterattack and use the huge space in Barcelona's backcourt to break through Barcelona's goal.

When Barcelona was besieged in the half, their biggest weakness was the empty half of the stadium.

However, Barcelona often besieges opponents, and there are not many teams that can grasp this weakness of Barcelona.

Even for teams like Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid who are good at counterattacks, it is difficult to do so.

There are two main methods for Barcelona to prevent the opponent's counterattack. One is to counter-grab on the spot after losing the ball, and the other is to leave Mascherano in the backcourt with fast speed and strong recovery ability.

Only by avoiding Barcelona's high-position counterattack and getting rid of Mascherano's pursuit at the same time, can we have the opportunity to single out goalkeeper Ter Stegen.

The Spaniard was able to beat Barcelona in the away game in the first half because he seized this weakness of Barcelona, ​​and Zhao Yang has extremely superb shooting skills, so he grasped the limited shooting opportunities.

This time, Barcelona absorbed the lessons of the last loss. Although they are also besieging the Spaniard with all their strength, they are always on guard against the Spaniard's counterattack.

Zhao Yang was in the middle, Mascherano followed Zhao Yang, and Busquez stood in front of Zhao Yang to prevent the opponent from passing the ball to Zhao Yang.

Zhao Yang couldn't play a role, and the Spaniard's counterattack was half useless.

Under Barcelona's constant attack, the Spaniard's defense once again showed flaws in the 16th minute of the game.

Neymar made continuous breakthroughs on the wing and went straight to the bottom line.

When everyone thought Neymar was about to cross, Neymar scored the ball, broke through the defense of full-back Rocco, and cut to the penalty area.

Fortunately, almost all the Spaniard's players are in their own half at this moment, and two more players immediately went to intercept Neymar.

The space in the penalty area is small, and there are two defensive players. Neymar did not dare to overdo it. He immediately passed back to the front of the penalty area in an inverted triangle.

Neymar's players passed very decisively. Suarez, who was in the center position, had a tacit understanding with Neymar when Messi was injured.

Neymar's pass arrives, and so does Suarez's men.

Suarez shot straight away, and the Spaniard central defender Duterte flew over to block Suarez's shooting angle.

The ball bounced right off Duterte's arm.

The referee was at the front of the restricted area, he could see clearly, immediately blew his whistle, and awarded Barcelona a free kick outside the restricted area.

This is a good opportunity to break through.

Suarez wants to compete with Zhao Yang for the top scorer and needs to score.

Messi generously handed over the right to take the penalty to Suarez and let him take the penalty.

Suarez was not polite either. After the whistle sounded, he volleyed vigorously towards the gap between the walls.

The Spaniard's wall was very tight, and Suarez's free kick failed to penetrate the wall and bounced off Diop.

Everyone went to grab the ball together, but the ball still fell to the feet of the Barcelona players.Taking advantage of the confusion of the Spaniard's formation, Barcelona continued to besiege the Spaniard's restricted area.

After Barcelona's continuous passing, Iniesta suddenly sent a through ball and hit the Spaniard's penalty area.

This is the only gap in the Spaniard's penalty area. Iniesta saw it and passed it accurately.

Suarez didn't run in place, but Messi happened to appear on the passing point.

With a flick of the instep, the ball flew straight to the lower left corner of the goal.

The shot in the penalty area was still so tricky. The goalkeeper Arrogis couldn't reach the ground, and he didn't touch the ball with his feet. The ball flew past Alrogis' feet.

Just when Messi was about to celebrate, the ball bounced off the post.

But before the Spaniard players and fans breathed a sigh of relief, the ball bounced right in front of Suarez.

Suarez reacted quickly, raised his foot and shot, and the ball flew into the net against the lower edge of the crossbar.

2:0

Suarez scored his 33rd league goal.

Only 3 goals away from Zhao Yang!

Suarez was very excited, he raised his arms, rushed to the stands, and shouted at the fans in the stands.

The last thing Espanyol fans want is for Suarez to score.

Seeing that this guy scored a goal was fine, and he ran to the stands to provoke him, so he was very angry.

In an instant, many Espanyol fans threw their debris at Suarez and booed him at the same time.

The commentators in Huaguo were very sorry. He Wei said: "If you lose, you lose, but how can you let Suarez score? The top scorer is the only honor that the Spaniard can get this season."

Fang Jian said: "You should stare at Suarez, and others will not get in."

He Wei said: "There is still a gap of three goals. Suarez must not be allowed to score again, otherwise Zhao Yang's top scorer will really be hanging."

The Spaniard did everything possible to prevent Suarez from scoring.

And Barcelona did everything possible to create opportunities for Suarez to score.

In the 22nd minute, Rakitic made a pass from the right, and Neymar passed the ball to the middle of the penalty area with a cross from the bottom line on the left. Messi followed up and missed the left post.

In the 25th minute, the Spaniard got his first shot.

Perez made a big clearance from the backcourt, and Zhao Yang headed the ball to Caicedo.

Caicedo almost rushed into the penalty area with Mascherano on his back, and took a shot under Pique's force, but Caicedo didn't make any effort, and the ball was easily confiscated by goalkeeper Ter Stegen.

Two minutes later, the Spaniard's Zhao Yang was brought down in a breakthrough from the wing, and the Spaniard got a free kick on the left side of the front court.

Zhao Yang took the penalty himself. He kicked a falling leaf cut, but the free kick was a little far away. The goalkeeper Ter Stegen had time to react, and flew to hit the ball.

Caicedo followed up and shot an empty goal, but the ball was blocked by Barcelona central defender Pique on the goal line.

After two consecutive shots, the ball and the initiative fell into the hands of Barcelona again.

Barcelona may have heard that Real Madrid also scored, and became even more nervous. They may feel that two goals are no longer safe and continue to attack aggressively.

In the 40 minutes of the game, the Spaniard kicked his teammate with a big kick and bounced to Iniesta's feet. Iniesta took the ball and passed it to Messi immediately.

Messi dribbles the ball into the penalty area.

Diop came to intercept, but did not stop him. Seeing that Messi was about to enter the penalty area, Diop quickly reached out to pull Messi, preferring to foul rather than let Messi break in.

Messi was too flexible and fast, Diop didn't grab it this time, and he subconsciously grabbed it again.

This time it was caught, and Messi who was caught also fell in the penalty area.

The referee's whistle also sounded at this time and pointed to the penalty spot.
