Chapter 1117

"The captains of both sides, the core players of both sides, Kai and Messi exchange team flags and divide the sides!"

"The two are the absolute core of their respective teams. They have the ability to rewrite the score of the game and at the same time determine the direction of the game. It can be said that the confrontation between these two directly determines the final direction of the game."

The narrator's voice couldn't help becoming a little louder.

After two rounds of the UEFA Champions League, finally ushered in a sharp-to-tough focus battle in the third round.

Both Arsenal and Barcelona are strong teams in the Champions League.

Although Barcelona has lost its glory during the Cosmos period, with the outstanding performance of Messi and Suarez and others, Barcelona still maintains a strong competitiveness in the Champions League.

Needless to say, Arsenal, as the most popular seed to win the championship, Arsenal's level of strength has always been recognized in Europe.

The strong dialogue between these two teams will further enhance the intensity of the competition.

"You come first!"

When guessing the side, Le Kai took the initiative to give up the right to choose.

Messi is also doing his part.

"I want to be positive!"

"I'm the opposite!"

Both made choices, and the referee tossed the special coin high.

The coin hit the ground, heads!

Messi pointed to the middle circle; "We want the ball!"

Lucky pointed to the field on the left; "We want the field on the left!"

Today's wind is not strong. The main reason for choosing the left field is that it is backed by Arsenal's fan area, which can minimize the interference of the opponent's fans.

This will help Arsenal get into the game faster before the game.

Both sides made choices, and finally Lucky shook hands with Messi and the three referees, from their respective halfs.

At this time, the starting list also appeared on the big screen.

Barcelona (4-3-3):

Goalkeeper: Ter Stegen.

Defenders: Roberto, Pique, Lenglet, Alba.

Midfield: Rakitic, Busquets, Arthur.

Forwards: Messi, Suarez, Coutinho.

Arsenal (4-2-3-1):

Goalkeeper: Martinez.

Defenders: Bellerin, Jimenez, Hummels, Robertson.

Midfielders: Aubameyang, Wilshere, Kanter, Lucky, Mane.

Forward: Giroud.

Both sides are doing their best, and the main force will deal with this game.

Obviously, they don't want to miss this crucial game that can be said to determine the first place in the group.

"Here is the third round of the 2018/2019 Champions League Group B group match, Barcelona's home game against Arsenal!"

"It's Barcelona in red and blue and Arsenal in red and white!"

"The two teams currently maintain the number one position in their respective leagues. It can be said that this is a confrontation between the top teams in La Liga and the Premier League."

"We can see that Messi has returned to the starting lineup. Barcelona has fallen into a certain amount of public opinion due to Messi's injury and Ernesto Valverde's employment problems. In this game, facing such a crucial game, Messi also played again, starting against Arsenal!"

"Arsenal is also the main force. During the league and cup games, Arsenal's rotation has given the main players a lot of rest time. The physical condition is definitely better. We can look forward to Arsenal's performance in this game. Have a better performance!"

"At the same time, judging from the current lineup, Arsenal is not a completely defensive position. Obviously, Mourinho does not want to play so passively when facing Barcelona."

"Or, we also saw the picture of Messi and Kai penetrating each other's lines and attacking the city!"

Zhan Jun's voice was extremely excited.

His voice expressed the expectations of the fans very well.

This key game has been waiting for a long time for many fans.

How Arsenal and Barcelona will start the game makes them look forward to it.

At this time, the referee has already walked out of the middle circle.

The next second, a sharp whistle sounded.

The third round of the UEFA Champions League group stage in the 2018/2019 season officially started.

"At the beginning of the game, after Suarez kicked off, Barcelona quickly integrated the formation and began to pass. The ball began to pass to Messi's feet frequently, and at the same time it was distributed to Coutinho on the right wing. It can be said that this season Coutinho Ao plays more of a charge in Barcelona, ​​and this young man has become one of the few offensive players in Barcelona with strong impact."

Barcelona's offensive is still launched from the ground.

However, Arsenal's defense is also very solid.

Especially at the beginning of the game, Lucky did not step forward, but kept a parallel position with Kanter to ensure that the ball would not penetrate easily.

Coutinho needs to face Le Kai's marking, but he is not stupefied. He did not bite the bullet and go tough with Le Kai, but frequently passed the ball in the frontcourt, through Suarez's back and Messi The ability to hold the ball ensures their advancement.

This advancement is somewhat similar to the former MSN Trident.

However, it feels a bit awkward in terms of speed.

And in the process of advancing, it seemed that he was just standing still and failed to penetrate the ball into the dangerous area.

Messi has the ball again and he stands close to the center.

Since Iniesta left Barcelona, ​​Messi has taken on more organizational and frontcourt work.

Unlike the previous charge, Messi is more like a commander at this time.

But in the face of Arsenal's iron wall, Messi also had some difficulties for a while.

The penetrating pass he has always been good at is a bit difficult to play.

The distance between Lucky and Kanter is very good. The two are clearly telling him that if he dares to play a penetrating pass, they will stop it for you.

For this reason, Messi did not dare to act rashly.

He began to greet his teammates to come forward and increase some offensive strength in the frontcourt.

Barcelona's position advancement has always been a unique skill.

But this time, they seemed to be wrong.

When Barcelona's players flooded into Arsenal's half, Arsenal suddenly became manic as if they had received some kind of stress response.

The pressing and oppression have also become extremely fierce.

Wilshere, Mane, and Aubameyang retreated and pressed frantically.

With the support of Lucky and Kanter, Arsenal instantly took the initiative in the midfield.

"Arsenal has started to act. They are not willing to defend passively, and they have started to press actively."

Sky Sports commentator Andy Gray shouted loudly.

His expression is extremely excited, that's right, he should play like this, and he can't play so passively against Barcelona.

Sure enough, under the continuous pressure from Arsenal, Barcelona's delivery became more and more difficult to maintain.

As a last resort, they can only pass back.

Busquets drops back while asking for a safe pass.

Coutinho also immediately turned around and passed back.

When Busquets was waiting to catch the ball, suddenly teammate Pique behind him exclaimed; "Be careful!"

Busquets almost subconsciously blocked the ball sideways.

He collided heavily with Giroud, but Busquets still stabilized his figure.

A Harvey-style circle, forward and reverse, out of some neutral gear.

Just when Busquets thought he had gotten rid of the opponent's press, a figure suddenly appeared from the side again.

Mane quickly burst out from the side and stabbed the ball to Wilshere in the middle.

"Mane! The tackle in the frontcourt!! Arsenal counterattacked!"

Andy Gray suddenly cheered.

Wilshere held the ball, and he immediately dribbled forward. The whole person was obliquely close to the left dribbling line, which involved the entire back line to the left.

And when Barcelona's defense came to the left, Wilshere made a sudden stop.

"Are you going to split the ball?"

Andy Gray immediately looked forward to it.

At this time, Pique's expression also changed suddenly, and he immediately moved forward to press forward.

But at this moment, Wilshere suddenly stepped forward and wiped past Pique.

"Passed!! Wilshere shot! This ball. Ah~~~~~~"

Andy Gray held his head, and the ball flew out against the goal post.

This shot required too much angle and failed to accurately push the middle and far corners.

Wilshere also shook his head with regret.

But his extraordinary is still very exciting.

Not only did he deceive Pique, but he almost pierced through Barcelona's goal.

At the beginning of the game, Arsenal took the lead in attacking. With this steal in the frontcourt, they immediately formed a counterattack situation.

And this attack also made Barcelona break out in a cold sweat, obviously shocked.
