The game continued until the 20th minute, and Griezmann, who was in good form and extremely active.

Almost all of Barca's midfield's defensive energy was captured, and a counter-attacking opportunity was found by him.

After a delicate turn to get rid of it, Griezmann chose to give the ball to Carrasco on the wing.

And Carrasco, who has begun to show talent, has not disappointed Atletico.

With his own speed advantage, he managed to pull out space under Rakitic's defense.

And plugged in Saul, also received his precise pass.

Then with an unexpected long-range counterfoot shot, he came out of the world wave.

During this period, Saul was still a talented midfielder with high hopes from everyone. And his long-range world wave today seems to prove his talent.

In the 20th minute of the match, Atletico Madrid played a world wave with the individual ability of the players. Take a 1-0 lead at home.

"Saul's surprise attack, Atletico Madrid scored first! At this point, Barcelona will be difficult. "

In recent seasons, Atletico Madrid have actually been good against strong teams. The biggest problem is the frequent points conceded by the mid-range and lower reaches and the lack of consistency in European performances

, but Atletico Madrid tend to show amazing defensive ability and resilience against a strong team like Barcelona.

Now, Saul scored first. Atletico Madrid's defense has always been like an iron wall, and the balance of victory seems to tilt in Atletico Madrid's tip at once.

When the game enters such a situation, Messi tends to hold the ball more. This time is no exception.

After receiving a pass from Rakitic, Messi tried to open up the situation for the team with his personal breakthrough ability.

'Messi is now pushing into the Atletico half of the zone with the ball, Saul just scored and now he's back to defend.

Saul, who has just scored a goal, has undoubtedly become one of the most striking focuses on the field, and after he scored, he did not relax his defense, and still chose to return to the defense in the face of Messi's breakthrough.

Such an attitude made the commentator also have a good impression of him.

'Now Barcelona are in a backward situation, and as the star of the team, Messi has to step up at this time.

As usual, Barcelona chose to give the ball more to Messi when they could not open up the attacking situation.

Messi did not choose to run, but stood between Atletico Madrid's midfield line and the back line to observe the situation.

Then he saw Dembele beside him.

Signaled the short pass with a gesture, trying to take advantage of the short pass and dribbling in the middle, as well as its own rhythm change. Cut into the Messi corridor where he does best.

But Godin's front top was very timely, although the aging of his body inevitably made him more bulky and slow.

But his rich experience and strong body have given him excellent head-on fighting ability. On top of the demeanor of predicting the success of this time, he limited Messi's breakthrough and successfully cleared the ball back into the midfield.

On the Barcelona side, it was the tall Sergio Busquets who took back a little. The two sides continue to be caught up in strangulation and fighting.

As Atletico adopted a 1-0 idea, Barcelona's control of the midfield gradually increased.

But Atletico Madrid's penalty area is like a monolith, and Simeone can't wait to cram all ten players on the pitch except the goalkeeper into his own box.

Even if Messi, Mallon, Suarez and Dembele take turns. It has never been able to open the door of the restricted area of Atletico Madrid and find any absolute opportunity.

It wasn't until the 41st minute of the game that Barcelona finally created another attacking chance. The attacking opportunity was a lateral dribbling of Messi with the ball and continued to attack the Atletico Madrid penalty area.

And Felipe, who followed the defense, chose to put Messi to the ground at the front of the box. If Messi is allowed to shoot from the top of the arc on the right penalty area, it is no less threatening than letting him into the box.

The lesser of two evils, Felipe chose to give Barcelona a free-kick.

The whistle sounded, and referee Raos rushed over as soon as possible.

"Referee, this ball is definitely a foul and should be added a yellow card."

Suarez immediately went up to find the referee to theorize.

"It's a normal physical confrontation and the yellow card shouldn't be there."

And Godin over there also explained his ideas to Raos for the first time.

After some hesitation, Raos chose not to show a yellow card, but only awarded Barcelona a free kick from the edge of the box.

This made Dembele very unhappy, and he did not take much advantage in the direct meeting against Felipe in the first half.

But if the opponent has a yellow card on his body, then his situation will be reversed.

"I'm the referee, I'm the biggest on this pitch. I said, it's not a yellow card, it shouldn't be a yellow card

" "But he pushed Messi behind his back, and Messi is already at the front of the box!" If he doesn't put down Messi, then that goal is likely to be scored! Foul that directly blocks a goal, why can't you give cards? The

young Dembele argued and retorted.

Obviously, he just came from the Bundesliga and did not even play a few games in La Liga, and did not know Raos, the referee, and

then Raos taught Squat Bele a lesson.

"I'm a professional referee, that's why I'm here to blow La Liga, and I must be more accurate in judging fouls than you, understand?"

He pulled out the Topaz card, but not to Felipe, who had committed a foul. Instead, he showed a yellow card to Dembele, apparently because he had a conflict with the referee.

"What? A yellow card? Just because he said a few words to you? Pique

was also a little strained at this moment, and he also planned to come up and talk to Raos for two sentences.

"Forget it, this guy is like that. We can't talk to him anymore, and if we continue to quarrel with him like this, we will have to eat cards for no reason. Fortunately

, Busquets took the lead in calming down. Help a few people to calm down, so that they don't get another yellow card on their side.

As one of the best referees in La Liga, Raos's level is actually beyond words. But he likes to play cards against players who have controversies with him, which also makes him "notorious

" and "little princess", and even more so with the world's masterpiece of punishing Argentina against the Netherlands in the World Cup.

From La Liga to the world.
