Camp Nou
Messi is in his peak form, seemingly about to perform another solo dribble.
Guardiola's tactical setup is very targeted; when Chen Zhong is not around Messi, they give the ball to Messi, letting him break through with sparks and lightning.
Khedira and Pepe couldn't stop Messi; they seemed like mere background props before him.
However, they still accomplished their tasks.
On the stands, Barcelona fans only had eyes for Messi, while Real Madrid fans also kept their eyes on Chen Zhong.
Even if Messi outplayed Khedira and went past Pepe.
Yet, some people's eyes were still following the approaching Chen Zhong.
Closer, closer, even closer!
Just as Messi took a slight detour to control the ball, a trace of ferocity and determination flashed in Chen Zhong's eyes.
He raised his arms and threw himself down.
This was a textbook slide tackle, and his massive body also increased his "attacking range."
Messi sensed danger, but it was too late.
