The draw against Reading made Donn decide to rotate in the Champions League, and he was confident that this lineup would be beyond Rijkaard's expectations.

Because the first team is so famous in Europe, I personally believe that with the conservative style of Don En, he will definitely rely on this lineup in such a critical game. What's more, who would have no trouble to rotate because of a draw in a league?

But Tony Tangen's mind is not very normal.

He decided to rotate. The only question was to explain to the players why they did not appear in the starting lineup against Barcelona - he attached great importance to the locker room atmosphere, something that could trigger locker room centrifugal force must be avoided.

Van Nistrui suffered a little injury in the game against Reading, and rotating him was a very convincing reason. After all, after being tied by Reading, the league is equally important.

Eastwood will also be rotated. For him, Donn is very simple, he just needs to tell him directly that because of tactical needs, he will be OK in this game if he rests.

Van der Fate also needs to be replaced. When his offense is in poor condition, his defensive help to the team is limited.  Donn decided to make a very amazing change in this game, which can be regarded as a gambling.   He wants to push George Wood to the core of the offense.

Who is the midfielder he partnered with? Sidwell.

As for the Dutch, he should know that his condition is indeed not very good recently.

The central defender will not make any adjustments, and Pepe and Pique are in good condition and physical fitness, otherwise the Forests will not lose a goal in the last two games.

Gareth Bale was replaced by Grosso on the full-back. After gradually adapting to the Premier League, Grosso's performance rebounded slightly. Although he was still a little different from his state in the Italian national team, he had already barely met Donne's requirements.

"Little Monkey" Bell can also say that his family can just say "tactical needs". Layton Barnes has some physical condition because of his physical strength. It is normal not to let him go.

On the right. Done decided to use the recent games and played a little less, but his defense is better than Rafinia and Zimbonda.

The goalkeeper is still experienced Van der Sar. Originally, Donn planned to replace Van der Sar this season because he was too old. Akinfeyev gradually replaced him. But he didn't expect that Van der Sar became stronger this season and his condition suddenly became surprisingly good. Faced with Van der Sar, who is in good condition and stable, rich experience and more familiar with the team's defense system, Donn naturally would not take the risk of using Akinfeyev. So the life after the poor Akinfeyev was taken back is not as good as when playing football in Russia...

The full-backs are still Ribery and Beckham. These two people have different characteristics, making the Forest's offensive tactics more diverse, which is an advantage that can be relied on in the game.

The advantage of rotating this lineup in this game is that it has a slight physical advantage, but the main reason is that it is hunger for the game and the eagerness to show your desire to win.

They are like a group of crazy wolves, and because of the lack of matches, they regard each opponent as fat meat to their mouths. The eyes are shining with green light, and the mouth is still spraying with a stinking stench, revealing white teeth, grinning as if they are smiling... In fact, it is warning the opponent in front of them:

This is our territory. Whether we eat or not depends on our mood. If we are in a bad mood, we will eat you. But... Most of the time we are in a bad mood!

"...Compared with the first leg of the two teams, Tony Donn replaced nearly half of the starting lineup in one go, which is really incomprehensible. Van Nistruy may not be convenient to play because of some minor injuries. But why did Van der Fate change? Did Donnn completely consider attacking in this game? So, is it a bit too conservative to defend so hard at home?"

The guest judging the football judges laughed when he heard this: "He is such a coach. As long as he can reach the finals, what is the ugly scene?"

"I think...it's not working against Barcelona. I'm afraid that he will not succeed in reaching the finals by then, and will be scolded for his conservativeness at home. How many people can accept losing the game with such a negative attitude?"

"I have a little different view. Maybe his team can do it? At Camp Nou. He let Barcelona score for 90 minutes but didn't score a single goal..."

"That's because Barcelona didn't have Messi at the time."

"Ha, Messi..."

Messi is getting the ball.

The method of finding successors for Maradona has never stopped since he retired. Argentina has produced many successors of Maradona in history, some of which were chosen by the king of football, and some were buttoned up by the media or fans themselves. Riquelme, Dale Sandro, Amar, Saviola, Ortega, Tvez, Aguero... have all done "Maradona II". But the result... the weather is haha.

From the current point of view, the only person who is most promising to reach Maradona's height may be the small man in front of him. He is no longer the eye-catching rookie at the time. Now he is a "phenomenon" of Barcelona, ​​an "phenomenon" of Argentina. It is also a "phenomenon" in world football.

Rijcard thought Tony Donn would let George Wood, the most powerful defense in Nottingham Forest, defend Messi, thereby saving other defensive forces to curb Barcelona's overall offense. The person who appeared in front of Messi made him stunned.

Not to mention him, even Messi on the court was a little surprised.

Nottingham Forest today is not the dark horse Nottingham Forest that reached the finals of the Champions League two seasons ago. As an opponent, Barcelona must study it. Among them, there are two people who are focused on studying - Frank Ribery and George Wood, one is the offensive core and the other is the defensive core.

Before the game, Rijkaard told Messi that the person who looked at him in this game would definitely be George Wood, because only George Wood could defend Messi in one-on-one, of course...

He asked Messi to use his flexible running position to pull Wood away, and at the same time used his quick footing to lure Wood into a foul, at least he could get a yellow card. In the subsequent games, Wood would definitely miss the Champions League final because he was afraid of getting another yellow card. He became timid. This is a good thing for Messi and Barcelona.

You should know that Barcelona won the final of Forest because George Wood was suspended and missed. The Forest team was defeated. For George Wood, putting aside his importance to the team, he himself was unwilling to lose the qualification to participate in the final again.

Rijkald felt that his arrangement was very good, until now.

The person standing in front of Messi was not the No. 13 wearing the captain's armband, but Sidwell.

The person who defends Messi is not George Wood!

Messi turned his head and looked at him. He found that Wood was in his position in the middle. Apart from attracting attention, he had no intention of coming up to defend.

This...what is going on?

Hello, do you look down on me, Messi? Find someone like this... to defend me?

He looked at George Wood again, and the two of them stared at each other with big eyes - George Wood was burly. Naturally, he had big eyes, and Messi was short and concise, but had small eyes.

After all, Wood still didn't want to come up to help.

Messi decided to break through by himself. He didn't know what Nottingham Forest meant, but since you don't have to see me with the strongest defensive players, I will break your defense line and let Barcelona score the goal, don't regret it!

It happened that Iniesta came up from behind, and Sidwell's attention was disturbed by Iniesta's running position. Messi grabbed this gap and passed the ball, tricking Sidwell into diverting the center of gravity, and then suddenly started a breakthrough from the opposite direction!

It was too late for Sidwell to stop him. The two were too close to each other and he couldn't react...

Nottingham Forest's defensive formation shrinks very tightly, and the distance between the midfield and the defender is very, very close. For most teams, this defensive formation can fully compress the space at the front of the penalty area and not give the opponent's forwards a chance to take the ball calmly. At the same time, due to the shrinking of the formation, the distance between the three lines is not far, and when counterattacks are needed, the football can be quickly and accurately passed to the teammates' feet without any other means except for blind big feet. It's like a spring. The more ruthless the compression is, the stronger the explosive power of the bounce is. This is one of the characteristics of Nottingham Forest's defense.

But now.   It has become the best stage to make Messi play n't.

Because the defensive players are close, once someone breaks through, the defenders behind often have to intercept the ball or get stuck at the first time, and hesitation may make the opponent get in. This is exactly what Messi wants for his very fast feet. He can rely entirely on his instinct reaction and move and turn around and break out of the opponent's encirclement.

Just after passing Sidwell, facing Grosso who was intercepting the ball, he gently twitched his right foot and moved his body horizontally, leading the football over to Grosso's foot. Then he stopped and blocked Sidwell who was chasing back. Pique came up to block the defense, but he incredibly chose the man-ball to pass in the narrow space, and the football went to the right. The man walked from the left, and the man walked in the inner circle. In the small radius, he flashed by Pique, who had just stuck his position and couldn't adjust the center of gravity. He received the football he had just kicked out of the whole defense line of Nottingham Forest, without hesitation, and shot with a angrily shot!

Fortunately, Van der Sar blocked the angle in time and blocked Messi's shot from a small angle out of the baseline. Otherwise, Nottingham Forest would have conceded the ball in three minutes of his home game...

A breath of breathing sound came from the city stadium, and they were frightened by the magical performance of the small player. One person beat three defensive players in Nottingham Forest alone. The straight line distance from the starting point to the shooting point was only ten meters. The mainland skills in this small space are so outstanding!

Even the commentator won consecutive victories and praised Messi, who returned from injury, as the number one figure in Barcelona now.

At the same time, everyone's questions were even more serious - what was Tony Don't think? Why didn't George Wood come up to guard against him?

Although the shot was blocked, Messi did not show much annoyance. He did not even look at Van der Sar, but turned his head to look at George Wood.

It was no different from before he broke through. George Wood was also looking at him. After staring at him, George Wood turned his eyes away and ran back to defend the corner kick. There was no expression on his face that Messi wanted to see. He was neither surprised nor frustrated and afraid, and he looked calm and seemed to be paralyzed...

After paying attention to the two eye conversations between the two people on the court, Don Eun laughed. He did not allow George Wood to defend against Messi, and he would make arrangements. If you want to guess Messi, you can guess it. If you are angry about it, it would be a surprise.

Anyway, Rijcard, don't want George Wood to specifically guard Messi this time, because he has more important tasks to do than curb Messi.   It's just that Barcelona's attack in these few minutes, and he has no chance to show his mission yet...
Chapter completed!
