If it weren't for the referee's intervention, the Tottenham players might have celebrated the goal until the end of the game.
Even if it was the opponent's home court, after Wang Xiaodong scored, UEFA used the on-site broadcast to let all fans know that a new record for the most goals in a single UEFA Champions League had been set.
The camera lens has been pointed at Wang Xiaodong, and the words "WANGXIAODONG", "15" and "CHINA" are displayed in the entries at the bottom of the screen.
As a Chinese star, Wang Xiaodong once again engraved his name in the history of European football.
After returning to his own half with his teammates, Robbie Keane immediately opened his mouth and roared a few times, reminding the players not to be carried away by the goal.
After the game restarted, Barcelona did not press hard again.
There was not much time left in the first half. Wang Xiaodong and Bell's counterattack had clearly told them that even in the high-pressure Camp Nou, we still have the ability to score goals!
...
In the second half, the team changed sides and fought again, but Tottenham still played more freely.
During the halftime break, the players had clearly defined their positions and at the same time firmed up their tactics.
Since Barcelona wants to attack, give them the ball if they want it.
We use quick counterattacks to give our opponents a cold break.
Once the smooth fast break like the first half is played, it will definitely be the end for Barcelona!
However, after the halftime break, Barcelona's soldiers also regained their confidence and slowly began to exert force.
Harvey takes the ball in the frontcourt and creates a threat almost every step forward.
Modric and Lennon stared closely at the man wearing the Barcelona captain's armband. No one dared to step forward easily because neither of them had 100% confidence to seal him.
"Without Ronaldinho, Barcelona has produced so many midfielders with excellent ball control skills!" Huang Jianxiang shook his head in praise.
"This is the strength of La Masia's youth training camp!" Zhan Jun said eloquently.
The two of them looked at each other and saw the other's longing in their eyes.
Huang Jianxiang: When will we also have such a youth training environment?
Zhan Jun: When will we also have young players enter La Masia?
No matter which one, from the current point of view, there is still a long way to go.
...
In the 53rd minute of the second half, Xavi moved to the center to get the ball and mismatched Iniesta.
The moment the two crossed paths, even the Tottenham defenders were confused.
Who has the ball?
Who took the ball away?
It wasn't until the two men passed each other that the defenders reacted. Two of them hurriedly followed Xavi, and one followed Inesta.
Seeing the panic at the front of Tottenham's penalty area, even fans who don't understand football know that the soft power of the two teams is not at the same level.
Even if Barcelona has no hope of winning the championship this season, even if Rijkaard is about to leave get out of class, even if Tottenham has reached the semi-finals of the Champions League, even if it is still the leader of the Premier League... it cannot change that Tottenham is still a second-rate team, and Barcelona But it is the reality of a quasi-one-goal team.
Harvey, who passed by with the ball, turned around and sent a diagonal pass. Henry, who inserted in the middle, got the ball first.
However, the gunman's movement to stop the ball was a little too big, and the hasty shot just hit Robinson's chest and was confiscated by the Tottenham goalkeeper.
A minute later, Bell's counterattack burst into the frontcourt again. But this time, there was no connection between Bell and Wang Xiaodong, and the pass was destroyed by Yaya Toure.
In the 57th minute, Inesta took a shot directly from outside the penalty area. Robinson, who was focused, made a full save and blocked the ball in front of the goal.
Boateng, who arrived in time, turned around to make a save and was passed long to the right by Modric.
This time, Lennon on the right also ran wildly, opening up another high-speed channel.
For a time, Tottenham's two wing counterattacks posed a huge threat to the home team Barcelona.
During this period, Wang Xiaodong has been defending on the edge of his own penalty area. Every time his teammates counterattack, he will rush forward, but his counterattack is often destroyed by his opponent just after halftime.
Even so, Wang Xiaodong still did not stop running back.
When he sees his opponent stealing the ball in the backcourt, Wang Xiaodong will immediately form a defensive position based on his current position to delay the opponent's attack.
Just like this over and over again, even Harvey and others heard Wang Xiaodong's rudeness.
What a fool!
It was clear that there was no chance for that attack, and Lennon was already surrounded by two Barcelona players in the corner, but Wang Xiaodong still persisted and rushed forward, hoping to be able to serve as a backup.
After countless futile back and forth runs like this, even the cows are exhausted and panting, let alone humans!
But it was Wang Xiaodong's spirit of not giving up every attack that made all the Barcelona players nervous.
Who knows which mistake will allow Wang Xiaodong to have an effective shot again.
During the halftime break, Valdez's fingertips were bandaged several more times. In his words, he never wanted to face Wang Xiaodong's hard shot again.
When they saw Wang Xiaodong desperately spreading his legs to save a goal kick that was obviously going to roll out of the baseline, the Barcelona fans in the stands also fell silent.
They had never seen such a desperate young man at the Camp Nou. His determined eyes even shook the fans' determination to win.
Seeing that the ball was about to roll out of the baseline, Wang Xiaodong rushed to the ball and slid in desperately, hoping to reach the ball back from the baseline in this way.
Phew~~~
ci~~~
The security guard standing on the sidelines was stunned and almost got tackled from behind.
When he turned around, he found that Wang Xiaodong had appeared at his feet at some unknown time.
The ball that was originally rolling on the ground was shoveled into the stands by him.
Given Wang Xiaodong's position, he shouldn't have appeared in such a forward place.
But just now Lennon finally squeezed out from the double-team and cut in the middle. Out of the corner of his eye, he happened to catch Wang Xiaodong stepping forward behind him.
Although Wang Xiaodong rarely touches the ball, it is not difficult to pass a cross with his footwork. Therefore, after discovering that Wang Xiaodong had a tendency to push forward, Lennon decisively launched a kick.
But he obviously couldn't control the strength of his foot, and the ball rolled forward.
Seeing such speed, even Milito, Yaya Toure and others gave up chasing and waited for the ball to go out of bounds.
The final result was just as the Barcelona players expected. Wang Xiaodong was not a fast player and did not successfully catch up with the ball before the baseline.
Seeing Wang Xiaodong slide out of the baseline, Rijkaard's eyes lit up and he immediately rushed to the sidelines and shouted: "Counterattack, counterattack!!!"
Hearing the roar of the head coach, the Barcelona players' eyes instantly lit up.
As the backbone of Tottenham's defense, Wang Xiaodong is outside the court at this moment.
If we don't attack now, when will we wait?
So Valdes hurriedly walked around the goalpost and yelled at the staff behind the billboard.
He didn't know which one was the caddy, which one was the staff, which one was the security guard, which one was the photographer.
He just kept yelling, yelling for the ball to everyone in sight.
The Barcelona fans behind the goal were also very considerate. They knew their goalkeeper's demands and stood up and pointed in the direction of the ball boy in unison.
Valdes quickly turned his head and looked at the fans' fingertips.
Wherever he looked, Wang Xiaodong, who had just climbed up, snatched the ball from the ball boy's hand and threw it hard into the stands.
Seeing Wang Xiaodong's fierce face, the little caddy was almost frightened to tears.
Such a coquettish operation made everyone in Barcelona stunned.
The next second, Valdes became angry.
NND, I won’t tell you that you shoveled the ball away from the court. Why did you take the ball away from the ball boy and throw it away?
Do you still talk about sports ethics?
The anger made Valdez lose his mind. He gave up asking the staff for the ball and instead chased Wang Xiaodong and grabbed his jersey from behind.
But he regretted it the next second.
He underestimated Wang Xiaodong's determination to return to defense.
When he stretched out his arm to pull on Wang Xiaodong's jersey, his arm tensed up in an instant, and a strong pulling force spread throughout his body.
Before he could finish the trash talk in his mouth, he stumbled forward and fell to the ground.
Wang Xiaodong took two more steps before turning back. He looked down at his torn jersey, then at Valdez lying on the ground, and spat onto Valdez's thigh with disdain. Next to the bald head.
Pooh!
Valdez, who was a little dazed after the fall, felt a dark wind rushing past his ears, and subconsciously turned his head to avoid Wang Xiaodong's "hidden weapon".
Seeing the spit close at hand, Valdez was so angry that his blood boiled up on the spot.
At this moment, he could no longer control his emotions. He stood up and rushed to Wang Xiaodong to argue with him.
Pain was still burning on his fingertips, and Valdez's bald head was already pushing against Wang Xiaodong's chest.
This is Barcelona, this is Camp Nou, this is our home court!
How dare you, an outsider, act so arrogantly here?
Valdez put his head on Wang Xiaodong's chest and pushed him back two or three steps. Wang Xiaodong still raised his hands to show his innocence.
As if sensing Wang Xiaodong's retreat, Valdes actually mistook Wang Xiaodong's forbearance as weakness at this moment.
After a series of trash talk, he suddenly reached out his hand and pushed Wang Xiaodong hard on the chest.
"ah!!!"
The next second, a scream sounded in front of Valdez.
Seeing the figure flying back more than a meter away from him, Valdez's eyes were full of horror.
The domineering look he had just now disappeared, leaving only horror on his face.
"Don't, leave me alone!!!" Lennon was lying on the ground, the blood flowing from his nostrils dyeing the turf under him red.
Even so, Lennon still looked anxiously at Robbie Keane in front of him and shouted loudly: "Captain, pull, hold DONG! Don't let go!!!"
