Chapter 446 Near the end
This goal has still hit Hoffenheim very much, from leading to equalization to now overtake.
The morale of the players has been severely hit, and head coach Nagelsmann was worried about this before.
Fortunately, Gan Fan's comforting played a role, and the players' fighting spirit improved a little.
Cai Jian, who is an agent, was very pleased to see Gan Fan do this.
Now several players under Cai Jian have the potential to be captains, such as Lu Yunlong, who plays for Manchester City.
As for Wang Yuanjie and Xue Yang, Cai Jian has not seen this temperament in them yet.
With Gan Fan's talent, it may be difficult for him to go to a wealthy family. Since this is the case, he can become the captain of Hoffenheim.
The Hoffenheim fans were very quiet at the scene, and they were even a little desperate.
He was overtaken at the beginning of the second half. If he lost at home, it would be even more impossible to eliminate Barcelona.
And what worries them even more is that Hoffenheim was suppressed by Barcelona.
Hoffenheim has few offensive shots, all of them are Barcelona.
The game continued, and after the goal here, Barcelona still had the advantage.
Hoffenheim still has no chance, so he can only be led by Barcelona.
Barcelona attacked several more times afterwards, but unfortunately they didn't make any matches.
Barcelona then made the first substitution adjustment, replaced midfielder Ruiz and replaced midfielder Vidal.
Ruiz performed well today, with a few flashes.
Hoffenheim should strengthen the attack now, and they are now behind.
But they could never make a call, and time came unknowingly 68 minutes.
Barcelona still launched the attack, this time it was a counterattack.
After Messi received the pass, he began to advance to the opponent's half.
He soon dribbled the ball through the half, and Hoffenheim was eager to attack, and there were only three players in the back line.
On the other hand, Barcelona has three players.
Messi observed his teammate's position while dribbling, and soon passed it to Suarez.
Because a player was defending him at this time, Suarez took two steps and saw Xue Yang speeding up and sprinting forward.
So he sent out a straight pass to the left and went to find the left winger Xue Yang.
Seeing this, Xue Yang raised his speed to the fastest, and soon he chased the football.
Suarez's pass was a bit too big. After Xue Yang received the ball, he was already on the left side outside the penalty area.
If this straight pass is smaller, Xue Yang may be able to break into the penalty area after receiving the ball.
Shu Changyuan, who was facing the position, quickly defended, but Xue Yang had no choice but to reduce his speed.
But in this way, the defensive players are about to take the place.
This time the opportunity to play 3-for-3 was still wasted, and soon Jolinton also defended.
Xue Yang had no choice but to pass back, and then passed the ball directly to Busquets' feet.
Messi came to the top of the arc outside the penalty area at this time, and Busquets passed the football to Messi.
Messi did not stop the ball and actually pushed the football directly to the left.
Xue Yang retreated a little after passing the ball. After seeing Messi's pass, he ran to the left outside the penalty area again.
And he could speed up slightly, and soon Xue Yang received the pass.
He did not choose to stop the ball, so he directly drove the ball into the penalty area.
Soon Shu Changyuan defended, but Xue Yang did not choose to break through with force when he saw this.
Because he saw Messi near the top of the arc outside the penalty area, he was about to run towards the penalty spot.
So he wanted to pass an inverted triangle pass, passing the football near the penalty spot.
He was looking for Messi for this pass, but what Xue Yang did not expect was that Suarez, who was outside the small penalty area, also ran over.
He took a step back to his left and then forced the door in a very awkward position.
It turned out that although Xue Yang saw Messi's position, Suarez did not.
Originally, Messi saw Xue Yang's pass, so he ran towards the penalty spot.
This pass is a good time and it passes very well.
However, Suarez actually played the first football, and of course the ball did not threaten.
The football went straight up the goal and flew to the audience.
Messi saw Suarez actually shot early, and he actually shot so outrageously.
He couldn't help but show his regret, if it weren't for Suarez, he would have the confidence to score the ball.
Of course he did not express his dissatisfaction, and there was nothing he could do about it.
From Suarez's perspective, it is indeed difficult to see Messi's position.
"This counterattack is actually quite threatening. Unfortunately, Messi failed to hit the goal, so Suarez shot in advance." Zhu Xiaoyu explained regretfully.
"Actually, Xue Yang has done a good job in this ball, but Barcelona is a little bit unlucky."
"Suarez can't blame this ball, as a striker, he did the right thing."
Barcelona fans at the scene sighed regretfully, it was a pity for this ball.
This ball is really a very threatening attack from the audience.
Unfortunately, the luck was not very good, and the two players actually grabbed each other.
The game continued, and after a few minutes, Hoffenheim finally launched an attack.
The football came to the left, and Gan Fan rushed forward after receiving the pass.
At this time, Barcelona's defense line was not yet in place. Seeing Gan Fan getting the ball, all his teammates began to run into the penalty area.
Hoffenheim has three high forwards, so their high-altitude ball has an advantage.
Gan Fan's crossing ability is pretty good, but soon a player surrounded Gan Fan.
They realized the importance of Gan Fan to Hoffenheim, and Gan Fan did not think about strong attacks.
He thought he did not have the ability, so he chose to cross.
The football was passed to Demirbay in the middle. Because Barcelona's defensive center was biased towards Ganfan, the vicinity of Demirbay was quite empty for a while.
After receiving the pass, Demirbay took a step forward and then took a long shot directly.
The football flew to the left side of the goal, and he exerted enough strength for this long shot.
So the ball speed is very fast, unfortunately the angle is not opened well.
How could such a shot stump Telstegen stump? Telstegen not only rushed to the football, but also held the football in his arms.
Demirbay kicked the grass in frustration, and he blamed himself for his failure in long shot.
Today their opponent is Barcelona, and their hope of winning is small.
They should seize every offensive opportunity, but this opportunity was wasted by him.
He was very disappointed when he thought of this, but there was nothing he could do about it.
Ganfan came to Demirbay and patted Demirbay on the shoulder to comfort him.
There is not much time left for Hoffenheim at this time, and they need to strive to seize every opportunity.
