Chapter 1032 Dilemma
"Paris Saint-Germain launches a counterattack again, or leave it to Pirlo."
"It's still a long diagonal pass that is transferred to the left, hitting behind Barcelona's defense."
"Otamendi and Neymar are chasing on the left."
"Okay, Otamendi, once a beautiful pick, he squeezed Neymar away with his body, picked the ball out of the penalty area, and quickly cleared the ball. The whole defense was clean and neat, very decisive, and very smart."
"After joining Barcelona, this former Chinatown central defender quickly became the team's defense pillar and performed very vigorously."
"Look at Barcelona's counterattack this time, whether Pique dribbled the ball forward."
"The way Barcelona passed the ball forward was not smooth, and Pique performed very positively in this game."
"Passed to Xavi, Xavi dribbled the ball..."
"Dimaria returned to defense and successfully intercepted the ball, which was also a beautiful steal."
"Paris Saint-Germain's counterattack, Marcelo passed the ball to Di Maria on the left."
"Dimaria dribbled forward, Neymar came over..."
"Beautiful two-by-one, Di Maria got rid of Alves' defense, went down to the bottom line, crossed..."
"Suarez in the middle line followed suit..."
"The ball is in!!!"
"In the 54th minute, Paris Saint-Germain broke Barcelona's goal again!"
"God, the French Ligue 1 giants have been playing more and more smoothly during this period. On the contrary, Barcelona seems to be a little impatient and make many passes and catches."
"Paris Saint-Germain's counterattack this time was very sharp and very fast. From Di Maria's intercepting the ball, to Marcelo's straight pass, to Di Maria and Neymar's two-pass and one-on-one cooperation, the whole process was very skillful, and a continuous pass was torn open Barcelona's defense line, and the counterattack quickly gained a threat."
“Dimaria is very comprehensive.”
"This Argentine international is not only very eye-catching on both sides of the offense and defense, but the goal just now is mostly due to his credit. His outstanding performance at Paris Saint-Germain this season allows us to see a completely reborn Di Maria."
"This is Paris Saint-Germain's head coach Gao Han, who seems extremely excited about Suarez's goal."
"The transformation of Di Maria this season is quite successful, and Gao Han once again let everyone see his strength in transforming players. He helped Di Maria find his best position and exert the strength of a top player."
"We can see that after the goal, Di Maria and Suarez celebrated on the sidelines, but soon rushed to Gao Han and hugged the head coach. Neymar just now did the same after the goal."
"It can be seen that in the minds of Paris Saint-Germain players, Gao Han's status is extremely noble."
"Before this final, UEFA media reporters interviewed Paris Saint-Germain players, among which Neymar said Gao Han was the head coach he was willing to play for his whole life, while Suarez said that as long as he could play under Gao Han, even if he was a substitute, he would be happy."
"After bombarding Real Madrid, Di Maria also highly praised the current head coach Gao Han, believing that Gao Han is the highest-level head coach he has ever seen and the head coach he is most grateful to. He gave him selfless help, trust and support at the most painful time of his career."
"This is Gao Han!"
"The greatest and most successful head coach in the world football today!"

"Barcelona is in trouble!"
In the presidential stands at Wembley Stadium, Ferguson, Wenger and other famous European coaches sat in one piece. Seeing Paris Saint-Germain scored the second goal in the stadium, there was no look of surprise on their faces.
Even in Ferguson's eyes, it seemed that he had cast a look as I expected.
Perhaps, they had a premonition about the arrival of this goal.
"Paris Saint-Germain played faster and more efficiently in the second half, and invested more on the offensive end. This is obviously Gao Han's conscious arrangement, and he retained his strength in the first half." Wenger shook his head and sighed.
For all head coaches, being able to play in the Champions League final is an opportunity for eight lifetimes. Everyone will do their best to win the opponent from the beginning.
After all, this is the Champions League final, and a goal can change the overall situation.
That's how Biranova's opening game was. In order to eat his opponent in one bite, Barcelona played very aggressively in the offensive in the first half.
But Gao Han didn't do that. When he was on the court, he was more focused on maintaining defensive order and overall formation, first stabilize himself, and then exert his strength in the second half.
This is a very bold and courageous decision.
Ask yourself, who among the famous European coaches present dared to make such a decision?
What if Barcelona scored the goal if the defense is not defended?
What's more, even if the head coach is willing, what about the players? Who can guarantee that the players can be on the same mind as the head coach?
It can be high and cold.
His outstanding record in the past is his best persuasion, which made everyone believe that his decision was right, which led to the stability of Paris Saint-Germain in the first half and also gave the team the confidence and confidence to defeat Barcelona.
"The most important thing is that Gao Han pinned Barcelona's life gate very accurately." Ferguson analyzed lightly, "Barcelona cannot win in a strong dialogue with the stars alone. Their current players are starting to feel slack, and coupled with the aging of age, this is the biggest crisis that Barcelona is facing at present."
Ferguson's analysis was also recognized by everyone.
Barcelona's passes are as accurate as ever, and their possession rate is also as high as ever. Their cooperation is still tacit. They can still stalwartly stalking on the court to tear open the opponent's defense line through passing balls...
All of this looks no different from Guardiola's peak coaching period.
But in fact, such Barcelona is not threatening at all.
They began to get used to controlling the ball at the rhythm they were familiar with. Their passing seemed orderly, but in fact they were too stable, lacking penetration and lacking threat.
As Gao Han once said, any pass without the purpose of scoring is a hooligan.
Passing the ball for the sake of passing is a kind of conservative.
In fact, this situation was already reflected in Guardiola's later stages, so when Guardiola chose to leave the team, everyone felt that this was an opportunity for Barcelona to change, but more fine-tuning was made than after Ranova took office.
It's no wonder that Barcelona's entire tactical system is very closed, and even a youth training background like Fabregas cannot be integrated, let alone other players.
This is undoubtedly not a good thing for Barcelona.
What is particularly worrying is that the aging of Xavi and Iniesta will bring real crisis to Barcelona next.
"There is news that Barcelona wants to get Isco and Rakitic of Chinatown, and these two players should be able to effectively strengthen Barcelona's midfield, especially Rakitic, which has performed quite well this season," Wenger said.
After hearing this, Ferguson sneered twice, "Let's talk about it when Barcelona has money."
Wenger was stunned at first, then shook his head with a wry smile.
If it was someone else's team, it would be okay, but Gao Han's team...
All Europe knows that if you want to poach from Chinatown, you will have no money to negotiate.
"To be honest, I am looking forward to Chinatown next. With the current La Liga situation, this team has great potential. Even if Gao Han doesn't coach himself, within three years, this team will definitely be one of the most competitive teams in the Champions League." Ferguson said confidently.
In two or three years, the group of players born in the 1990s in Chinatown team have just begun to mature, and the team will usher in a golden period.
In the face of such a major development opportunity, Gao Han began to devote himself to the operation of Chinatown again. It is not easy for any team to poach Chinatown.
Barcelona is facing a crisis, Real Madrid is also facing a development bottleneck, Atletico Madrid has also risen for a short time, and lacks confidence, which undoubtedly gives Chinatown an excellent development opportunity.
Ferguson also thought of this layer and suddenly realized why Gao Han was so upset about poaching Pochettino.
This made him laugh.
It is not a matter of celebration to be able to dig up Gao Han’s corner in the selection of successors.

Of course, Biranova can see the problems his team is facing now.
One is the lack of offense and the other is the problem with the defensive end.
Focusing on attack and defensiveness has always been the problem with Barcelona. In the past, it could be alleviated by pressing and oppressing, but now...
He always sat in the coach's seat and watched the game silently.
Just now, he completed his first substitution adjustment and replaced Pedro with Fabregas. The team's playing style began to be adjusted, similar to the three-back's playing style, and wanted to strengthen the offense.
But it is obvious that the effect is not particularly good.
Messi got the ball on the right side of the frontcourt, but was quickly double-teamed by Marcelo, Di Maria and Pirlo. Although the ball was not cut off, the ball passed was hooked by Di Maria and the ball was lost.
Fortunately, Paris Saint-Germain failed to threaten this time, and Barcelona quickly intercepted the ball and immediately counterattacked.
Iniesta tried to open the situation on the left, but Azpilicueta stabbed the ball away, and then Aubameyang, who returned to defense, cut the ball away.
This beautiful defense also won the active retreat of the Gabon international.
"As soon as the ball enters the 30-meter area, the opponent's defense and midfield line will be kept very close. Our players are easily surrounded and cannot create a threat at all. Even if they occasionally enter the penalty area, it is difficult to get a chance."
Assistant Lula muttered and complained.
Biranova also saw this situation, but was at a loss.
He is now facing a very dilemma.
If you want to make the offense more threatening, the most effective way is to improve the efficiency and speed of passing and controlling the ball, but in this way, the ball control will inevitably decline, and Paris Saint-Germain will have more opportunities to face Barcelona's defense directly.
Given the weakness of Barcelona's defense line, it is impossible to defend itself, especially when it is hit by a counterattack.
But if you continue to maintain high ball control, the pace will inevitably not be fast, and it will be difficult to threaten the offense, and in the end it will still turn into the current embarrassing situation.
Biranova finally felt the pain that Guardiola had before leaving the team last season.
Guardiola was tortured to sleep at night.
It was obvious that he had foresaw this dilemma today at that time.
So, helpless, he finally chose to leave.
Chapter completed!
