Green Field Eunuch

Chapter 708 Enrique's Envy
“goooooooooooal!”

"The ball is in!"

"Another singles goal! A brilliant free kick that has breached Barcelona's goal!"

"With only 18 minutes played in the first half, Granada is leading Barcelona 2-0 at Camp Nou!"

"The moment he kicked the ball, Shan Yongzhuo knew it was going to go in; he was very confident in his shot."

"It turns out that this was genuine confidence, not arrogance. His shots were so powerful that Bravo had no chance against them."

"The situation has become very unfavorable for Barcelona..."

"Neymar really lost his temper this time!"

"His retaliatory foul on Ziyech directly led to this goal."

"Neymar really needs to learn to control his emotions, otherwise he will never be able to take Messi's place, let alone compare with Shan Yongzhuo."

"..."

The moment Shan Yongzhuo kicked the free kick, he raised his right hand high, his image as a god of war deeply imprinted in the hearts of Barcelona fans.

His teammates rushed over and surrounded Shan Yongzhuo. Qi Yehe, who had been rolling on the ground in pain, was now the most agile. He jumped up excitedly and hung on Shan Yongzhuo's back, as if he wasn't the one who had just been injured.

The entire Camp Nou stadium fell silent. Barcelona fans were stunned for a long time, as if the goal had shattered their souls.

Shan Yongzhuo was also very excited. Scoring a goal is more important than anything else. A 2-0 lead is extremely advantageous for Granada.

After a while, Granada's celebration was met with deafening boos from the Camp Nou stadium.

After all, they had all seen Ziyech's performance; he had really overdone it.

Barcelona fans are not going to suffer any loss.

Neymar suffered such a huge loss, which ultimately led to the team falling behind by two goals. This is simply unacceptable to Barcelona fans.

The best way is to respond to your opponent with boos.

However, Shan Yongzhuo and the Granada players didn't care.

Shh.

The louder you shush, the more afraid you are.

In his five-year professional career, what kind of situation hasn't Shan Yongzhuo seen?

Even when he encountered extreme boos, provocations, or even racist remarks from fans at away games, nothing could affect Shan Yongzhuo.

Such a few boos were nothing to him.

Meanwhile, the Barcelona players on the other side became listless, which they couldn't quite understand.

The team played very well.

They dominated the game, constantly pressuring Granada and creating several good chances. Although they failed to score, they were the dominant side.

But inexplicably, they fell behind by two goals.

This doesn't seem to be the first time he's played against Shan Yongzhuo.

Messi slumped his head, feeling a terrible headache, and even Shan Yongzhuo felt a deep sense of apprehension and fear.

From the previous seasons, Barcelona suffered various defeats at the hands of Manchester City, to losing the league title last season, and then losing the World Cup final.

Messi realized that Shan Yongzhuo was like a mountain blocking his way, and no matter how hard he tried, he could not get over him.

At that moment, Messi felt a deep sense of "why did fate create both Zhou Yu and Zhuge Liang?"

Enrique, standing on the sidelines, was even more frustrated.

He had never led a team to play against Shan Yongzhuo before, so he didn't have any real, direct experience with Shan Yongzhuo.

But this time, he experienced firsthand the helplessness he felt when facing Shan Yongzhuo.

The opponent's ability to seize opportunities is truly outstanding; they can even turn many opportunities that are not actually chances into goals.

Such ability is truly terrifying. Let alone Barcelona, ​​even if you gathered all eleven of the world's top players into one team, you probably wouldn't be able to handle this Granada team.

Because if they can't stop the opponent from losing the ball, it means they can't prevent the goal from being conceded.

If you can't stop conceding goals, what good are scoring more goals?
The opponent only needs to rely on Shan Yongzhuo scoring more goals than you.

This made the game incredibly easy for Shan Yongzhuo's team.

He glanced at Pellegrini on the other side and felt a deep sense of envy, jealousy, and resentment.

He came to Barcelona to coach Messi, thinking it would be the pinnacle of his coaching career.

After all, he was able to coach a legendary team like Barcelona and a top-tier talent like Messi.

But now, he finds himself unable to match Pellegrini's luck.

The other party really got incredibly lucky.

He could sense that if the team had a player like Shan Yongzhuo, then tactics would become incredibly simple.

All we need to do is solidify the team's defense and find ways to create opportunities for Shan Yongzhuo. In many cases, we only need to use the simplest attacking tactics, and Shan Yongzhuo can seize the opportunity and score goals using his individual abilities.

In this way, coaching becomes incredibly simple.

Even Enrique believed that Granada could easily be crowned.

"If we could bring Shan Yongzhuo to Barcelona, ​​he could partner with Messi..."

Enrique couldn't help but imagine it, but immediately shook his head with a wry smile.

Every team in the world would love to have Shan Yongzhuo.

Should we bring Shan Yongzhuo to Barcelona?

Putting aside the fact that Shan Yongzhuo is the owner of Granada, it's impossible for him to leave his own team.

Even if Granada were willing to give up Shan Yongzhuo.

The price Barcelona will have to pay will likely be astronomical, completely draining the club's resources.

With these thoughts in mind, Enrique could only banish these unrealistic ideas from his head and begin to consider how to deal with the situation.

After all, Barcelona were down by two goals and had to find a way out.

At least before the end of the first half, Granada must not be allowed to score again, and they must at least pull one back for themselves.

But what can be done?

Enrique frowned, lost in deep thought.

Meanwhile, Pellegrini was extremely satisfied, his arms crossed over his chest, a smug yet playful smile on his face.

He was very satisfied with the team's performance.

He was extremely satisfied with Shan Yongzhuo's performance, in particular.

In just over ten minutes, they seized two opportunities, putting the team in an almost undefeated position.

Although Pellegrini knew all too well just how good Shan Yongzhuo was, he was still deeply impressed and satisfied every time he saw Shan Yongzhuo's performance.

Pellegrini feels incredibly lucky to be playing alongside such a player.

He knew that as long as he stayed in Granada, he would surely reach the pinnacle of coaching and leave a significant mark on football history.

For a coach with such ambition as Pellegrini, this is truly a delightful thing.
