Chapter 441 Sudong Syndrome
"Sure enough, Rijkaard replaced Larson with Sudong."
"I believe everyone should be sure now that the current Barcelona team still needs a strong scorer like Su Dong and a dominant center in the penalty area to shock the opponent's defense."
"Although in recent years, some players in European football have adopted tactics without a center, or even directly adopted tactics without a center, but the center is still the tireless pursuit of all teams, and all coaches are eager to have a strong center forward."
"I don't know if Su Dong can change the situation on the field after he plays?"
"The second half of the game has begun."
"Barcelona continued to press forward, pressing in the middle and the front."
"The ball is taken, passed back, reorganized."
……
After Su Dong came on the court, he hadn't even touched the ball yet.
He also participated in the pressing of the frontcourt, but the opposing players always avoided him.
When Barcelona successfully steals the ball and turns from defense to offense, Zaragoza's defensive players are quite worried about him and are always on guard.
After passing back and forth through the backcourt, Barcelona quickly distributed the ball to the left and passed it to Ronaldinho.
The Brazilian dribbled the ball and tried to cut in, forcing Zaragoza's right back Poncio to follow suit and give way to the left side of the frontcourt. Ronaldinho feinted and passed the ball back to the left side.
I saw Van Bronckhorst quickly go forward along the left line. After receiving a pass from Ronaldinho, he strode towards the bottom line and glanced at the penalty area. Su Dong has already raised his right hand high.
Without hesitation, the Dutch left back dribbled the ball into the left side of the penalty area, and without waiting for Poncio to come up, he passed directly with his left foot.
The arc of this pass is beautiful, the height is enough, and it lands in the middle of the small penalty area and the penalty spot.
Su Dong quickly threw away Gabriel Milito and Alvaro, rushed directly to the landing point, and jumped high.
Milito and Álvaro didn't even take off to see Sudong head straight to the goal, and Van Bronckhorst's cross from the left was headed to the left of the goal.
Brazilian goalkeeper Cesar made a side attack, but failed to catch the ball, and the ball went directly to the left side of the goal.
"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!"
"In just 2 minutes of the second half, Barcelona scored a goal!"
"The first time Su Dong touched the ball, he scored for Barcelona!"
"This is Su Dong!"
"Throughout the first half, no matter how Barcelona's offensive players attacked, they were still unable to break through Zaragoza's goal. As soon as Su Dong came on the field, he broke through the goal guarded by Cesar with his first shot and pulled back a goal for Barcelona."
After Su Dong scored a goal, he pointed at Van Bronckhorst who sent the assist, and was hugged by Messi who was flying towards him. Other Barcelona players followed suit to celebrate Su Dong's goal.
Van Bommel also ran over to give Su Dong a high five and said with a smile, "That's great!"
"Am I right?" Su Dong asked with a smile.
The Dutch midfielder waved his hands embarrassingly, signaling Su Dong not to hit him again.
Van Bommel has long been aware of his problems.
The two central defenders of Zaragoza, Gabriel Milito and Alvaro, are not tall. The Argentine central defender is only 1.7 meters 1.8, and Alvaro is only [-] meters [-], which is more than ten centimeters shorter than Sudong.
But don't underestimate the ten centimeters. Combined with Su Dong's domineering body and excellent impact prediction, it is enough to completely put Zaragoza's two central defenders at a disadvantage.
Why didn't Larson work in the first half?
Because Larson is only 1.7 meters tall and he is 34 years old, if he fights his body, the advantage is not obvious.
As a center forward, when Larsson is imprisoned by the opponent, it is difficult for Barcelona to create a threat from the wing cross.
Conversely, when Zaragoza habitually wants to use the defense in the first half to limit Sudong, it will suffer a big loss.
Sometimes, the strength of players not only includes technology and awareness, but also their bodies.
……
There is one thing Zaragoza does better than Barcelona.
That is, the head coach Munoz reacted very quickly. After seeing Sudong's goal, he immediately made adjustments to strengthen the defense against Sudong, and at the same time restricted Barcelona's two wings from taking the ball.
There are pros and cons to everything.
When Zaragoza tried to prevent Barcelona's wide cross to find Sudong, Barcelona's two wings started to get more space.
In the 601st minute, Messi took the ball from the right and suddenly started, obliquely inserted into the penalty area along his right rib, and directly dribbled the ball into Zaragoza's penalty area.
Ronaldinho came out to pick peaches without hesitation, and he made it overnight. He scored this penalty for Barcelona and recovered another goal, two to three!
Subsequently, Barcelona began to exert force frequently, and Zaragoza defended even harder.
Munoz immediately replaced two players and continued to strengthen the defense.
Everyone also clearly saw that after Su Dong came on the field, Barcelona's offense became more three-dimensional and the means were more abundant.
Zaragoza's methods of freezing Barcelona in the first half all failed in the second half.
Until the No.809 minute, Messi sent a direct pass from the right rib to the right side of the penalty area. Su Dong used his body to hold Gabriel Milito in the penalty area.
Three to three!
When Sudong laughed and ran to the sidelines to celebrate the goal, Van Bommel was the first to run over and give him a high-five.
"I'm convinced! I'm really convinced!" The Dutch midfielder smiled frankly.
In Eindhoven and the Dutch national team, he can be regarded as a big man, which makes him arrogant and unconvinced to anyone, not only Su Dong, but also Ronaldinho.
But tonight, he was really convinced by Su Dong!
In the first and second halves, whether it is the fans on the sidelines or the players on the court, the feelings are completely different.
The Barcelona players felt more deeply, because they played very uselessly in the first half, but played very smoothly in the second half.
The biggest difference is just another person on the front line.
Van Bommel is really convinced!
He really realized that Su Dong was more important than he imagined!
…………
…………
The [-]-[-] draw with Zaragoza in the away game, Barcelona's completely different performances in the first and second halves aroused heated discussions from the outside world.
The Daily Sports Daily believes that the current Barcelona team suffers from a disease called [Sudong Syndrome].
"When the Barcelona players can't see Su Dong on the pitch, they start to become unable to play football."
This is not just the statement of the daily sports newspaper. Zaragoza coach Munoz also said in the post-match press conference that Su Dong came off the bench as a turning point in the game. He brought Barcelona players not only goals and tactics, but also confidence.
"We can clearly feel that after Su Dong came on the field, the Barcelona players played more accurately. They began to find their direction, but in the first half, they felt lost."
Rijkaard is not willing to exaggerate the role of individual players, but he still has to admit that Su Dong is the team's away draw with Zaragoza.
Dutch midfielder Van Bommel was full of praise for Su Dong in an interview with the media after the game. He believed that Su Dong brought confidence to the team. "He is an incredible player. During the intermission, he told us that he could break through Zaragoza's defense. At that time, we half believed it, but he did it in less than 2 minutes."
"I was like, oh my god, what kind of person does this have to be to do what he does?"
"With such teammates by our side, we will feel particularly powerful!"
…………
…………
On the weekend, in the No.20 round of La Liga, Barcelona ushered in Alaves, the deputy squad leader.
There is a huge gap in strength between the two teams, and Barcelona is playing at home, and they have frequently exerted their strength and created threats from the very beginning.
No.17 minutes, Ronaldinho crossed the penalty area diagonally from the left, Su Dong grabbed the first spot, headed back and hit the front of the penalty area, but in the end, Van Bommel, who inserted in the back, stopped the ball too much and missed an excellent opportunity.
The Dutch midfielder was so angry that he didn't screw his head off.
No.304 minutes, after Su Dong retreated to respond to the midfielder's ball, he turned around and sent a direct pass.
Iniesta sprinted past Sudong quickly and caught up with Sudong's pass near the penalty spot, but the subsequent shot was too straight and was directly saved by the opponent's goalkeeper.
After being squandered by his teammates twice in a row, Su Dong finally couldn't help himself.
One minute later, after Marcos Senna intercepted the ball, he accurately sent the ball to Ronaldinho's feet. The Brazilian superstar passed the ball directly to Su Dong.
In stoppage time in the first half, Ronaldinho made another pass from the left. Su Dong in the center deliberately missed and gave the ball to the back point.
With no one defending, Messi stopped the ball and played again, two to zero!
In the second half, after changing sides and fighting again, in only 2 minutes, Messi sent a diagonal pass from the right side of the penalty area. The opponent's goalkeeper was unable to make a save.
No.609 minutes, still Ronaldinho sent a diagonal pass, Iniesta waded into the penalty area, tripped to the ground by the opposing player, the referee awarded a penalty again, Ronaldinho did his part, calmly took the penalty and hit it, [-] to [-]!
No.80 In the second minute, Messi sent a direct pass from the right, Su Dong inserted into the penalty area, pushed in front of the goal and hit the goal, but was saved by the opponent's goalkeeper.
The ball did not fly far and landed on the right side of the penalty area. Messi followed up and calmly stabbed the goal, locking the score at [-]-[-]!
A brace!
After Messi scored a goal, he was so excited that he went crazy!
He jumped directly onto Su Dong's back and let Su Dong run across the field with him on his back, accepting the congratulations from the Barcelona fans in the stands.
No one thought that this Argentine teenager would rise so fast this season!
Only Messi knew in his heart that all of this was because Su Dong kept helping him.
From the moment he entered the first team, all of his success is inseparable from Su Dong's help!
This makes him always feel helpless!
