Chapter 1082

On the night of May 5, at the Bernabeu stadium in Madrid, Spain.

In the first leg of the Champions League semi-final, Real Madrid are at home to China city.

Both teams are from La Liga and know each other's roots. There are no miracles on both sides. From the very beginning of the game, the two teams directly entered the bayonet battle, especially the away battle of Chinatown, which played the opening attack.

Less than a minute after the opening, ISCO once dribbled into the penalty area and fell to the ground. Although the referee didn't call a foul, the slow motion replay showed that Bruno Alves had an obvious pull.

At the Bernabeu stadium, no coach has the courage to give the visiting team a penalty in less than a minute.

Especially in such an important Champions League semi-final.

Two minutes later, China city made another attack. Azar shot low on the left side of the penalty area and was saved by Casillas.

In the sixth minute, Real Madrid scored into the forbidden area of Chinatown, the ball was intercepted by varanet, and devery launched a long pass. Morata carried Albiol with his body and snatched the ball from mid air to the far corner of the goal.

In the face of such a shot, which is more than 20 meters away from the goal, Casillas, who used to stand outside, reacted very quickly and couldn't help retreating. He got it before the ball started and solved a wave of crisis.

However, the continuous attack of China city has brought great pressure to the weak back line of Real Madrid, and the midfield has been suppressed by the opponents from the beginning, with frequent mistakes.

Until the ninth minute

…………

…………

"There was a mistake in the passing of the ball in midfield

"China City midfield Ilya ramendi intercepted the ball and passed it to ISCO

"Real Madrid fought back on the spot and Isko quickly passed the ball back to the goal."

"De GEA stopped the ball, passed it to varane, then to the other side and gave it to Danilo."

"The Chinese city passes one foot continuously, transferred the ball out of Real Madrid's pressing range."

"Obviously, there was some remorse in mutinio, raising his hand to show his teammates that it was his fault in passing and catching the ball

"Chinatown doesn't seem to be in a hurry to pass the ball through the half court. The two centre backs are relatively open. They are still standing in the front of their own restricted area to pass the ball. The two full backs are also close to the side."

"Real Madrid forward pressure, Aguero forward harassment, ilia ramendi back to meet."

"It's another consecutive pass, with devery passing to Alex Sandro and the Brazilian left back coming back again

"Gareth bell came up to press, and devery made a big move to the right

"Danilo stops the ball and debrouane comes to pick it up."

"ISCO and debraune have a wide range of activities. This time debraune has no chance to pass it back to ilia ramendi."

"Chinatown is over half court."

"Real Madrid still have to be careful, the attack speed of Chinatown is not fast now, but once they seize the opportunity, it will be a stormy attack, which is also the best attack technique of Chinatown."

"China city's two centre backs have already passed half-time to catch the ball, then passed it to the left to Alex Sandro, crossed it to the receptive ESCO, turned to protect the ball, or passed it back to ilia ramendi."

"At this time, Real Madrid's defensive organization is OK, but China City firmly controls the ball. Real Madrid has no chance to seize the ball. The players seem to be in a hurry."

"Back to Duffy, Gareth bell went straight to Duffy this time, and then went to the left."

"Gareth bell sprinted for a while."

"Isko catches the ball and passes it back to Iria ramendi in the middle. Iria ramendi comes up and passes it to Danilo on the right."

"In the process of continuous pull, Real Madrid's left-wing defense appeared gap

"Danilo came forward with the ball and pushed into the 30 meter area. Kontland came forward to mark, but Danilo quickly passed to debraune."

"Debraune took the ball, adjusted it and went straight to the front of the area

"Glitzman stopped the ball, had a chance, swung past Bruno Alves and hit the goal directly!"

"Oh dear!"

"Casillas flies to block the ball out..."

"The ball's in

“GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL！！！！！”

"In the eleventh minute, in the eleventh minute, China city took the lead in knocking on the goal of Real Madrid."

"This is a continuous pass and catch, through constant pull, finally found the Real Madrid defense loopholes."

"One to zero!"

"The hero of the goal is morata, the powerful center of Chinatown!"

"He was very smart. When glitzman started, he quickly chased the back point. After the ball was saved by Casillas, he calmly pushed and picked up the leak."

"The players in Chinatown are very excited."

"Let's take a look at the whole process of scoring. It seems that Real Madrid didn't even have a chance to touch the ball when they were in possession of the ball in Chinatown. It's a very demoralizing thing

…………

…………

Morata, glitzman and others rushed out of the stadium to the bottom of the stands where the Chinatown fans were. During the celebration, the whole Bernabeu stadium was quiet, only the voice of the visiting Chinatown fans.

The fans of Real Madrid are very upset.

Yes, they have enough reasons to be dissatisfied with the performance of their team.

"Thirty seven feet pass." Cantarello laughed excitedly.

Starting from the ball that Ilya ramendi intercepted, China city passed 37 feet. In the end, glitzman started to hit the goal, Casillas flew to save and morata picked up the leak.

In the whole process of scoring, Real Madrid didn't even have a chance to touch the ball.

"I didn't expect, I really didn't expect, to score like this." The cold was quite unexpected.

This kind of goal is often more like the characteristics of Barcelona. China City seldom scores this kind of goal, but it is actually achieved in Real Madrid. In addition to strength, the most important thing is luck.

"There is something wrong with Pellegrini's starting line-up." Cantarello said, "he still wants to attack more, but it exposed the weakness and deficiency of the defensive end."

Gao Han nodded, which was really Pellegrini's mistake in this game.

Chilean engineers played out the double backs of Tony cross and mutinio in midfield, and Hames Rodriguez played forward. Obviously, this is to let the Colombian form an offensive square with Neymar, Aguero and Gareth bell. Tony cross and mutinio organize and control the rhythm behind them.

It's beautiful in theory, but it's hard to do it in practice.

A very important reason is that the double back of Tony cross and mutinio is too thin, especially mutinio, who has a problem when he tries to close down. His early goal loss is due to his wrong pass.

But compared with the midfield configuration, Real Madrid's more serious problem is the defensive formation.

Different from China city's defensive midfielders such as Kant and ilia ramendi, Real Madrid did not arrange full-time defenders in this game. Brazilian midfielder casemiro is a defender, but he has not been trusted since he joined.

On the defensive side, the gap between kontland and Bruno Alves was a little big. Especially when kontland came forward to press Danilo, Bruno Alves, 33, didn't get stuck for the first time, which gave glitzman a chance to get the ball at the front of the penalty area and start directly.

Of course, if we want to trace back to the source, it should be that the back defense in the middle and front court is not enough, Neymar and Gareth bell are still cruising in the front court, waiting for the pass in the middle and back court, which makes Danilo jump forward and Chinatown immediately get the number advantage on the right.

"The core problem is the disconnection between attack and defense, and the first one is midfield." Gao Han said, squinting.

There is an old saying in European football that has been said tens of thousands of times, he who wins midfield wins the world.

From Atletico Madrid to Chelsea to Inter Milan to Bayern Munich to Manchester City, and finally to Paris Saint Germain, almost all the teams in the past paid attention to the formation of midfield first.

Barcelona dream three team's peak time, precisely is also their midfield most powerful time.

At that time, no matter how Guardiola changed, how to play with all kinds of formation, Barcelona were able to do well, in the final analysis, it was because of the team's midfield control.

It's just like Zhang Wuji in Jin Yong's novel the story of relying on heaven and killing the dragon. After he has learned the world-class internal skills, all his martial arts become easy to grasp in his eyes, and the control of midfield is the internal skills of a team.

"Real Madrid's midfield looks beautiful, but there are a lot of problems. The most dangerous position of Hames Rodriguez is close to the penalty area, Tony cross..."

Gao's face darkened when he mentioned the player. He once wanted to introduce Tony cross to Chinatown. However, after negotiating with Zidane, the Frenchman, though appreciating Tony cross, declined Gao's proposal because he thought it was necessary to maintain a harmonious atmosphere in the dressing room.

In the cold, Tony cross will be one of the strongest midfielders in European football in the next few years.

"If it's me, I'll consider casemillo's delayed defense, and the formation of a double midfield composed of Hames Rodriguez and Tony cross. I believe it will be more balanced and more reasonable than that of mutinio. Of course, in midfield, Real Madrid will lose."

The midfield of Chinatown has been basically a success. Zidane will arrange four midfielders, including Isko, debrouane, bogba and cork, to form different partners according to different opponents and different needs.

But no matter what group, the midfield control of China city is the best in Europe. In addition to Barcelona and Bayern Munich, the midfield control of China city is dominant even in the face of Ancelotti's Manchester City and Paris Saint Germain.

As long as the midfield control is enough, the forward can organize and plan the attack, create opportunities, and the future can protect the defense and intercept the opponent's attack, then the whole team will not be out of touch, no matter what kind of opponent it faces, it will have the power of the first battle.

In contrast, Pellegrini, on the mutino, is definitely a big trick.

Of course, Chilean engineers may have their own considerations. After all, a few big stars in the middle and front fields must play. He has no reliable cards to play. In the case of casemillo who has not proved himself, it is understandable that he chooses a more mature mutino at the critical moment.

"If Real Madrid want to be strong, the waist must be straight, and the back line... There is a long way to go!" Gao Han shook his head and sighed.

This summer, Real Madrid invested hundreds of millions, hit the stars in the middle and front, but there is no corresponding reinforcement in the back line. Pellegrini can only rely on veteran Bruno Alves and the team's youth players to support.

This is also the cause of the current embarrassing situation.

This also has a lot to do with the current shortage of defenders in European football.

And there is a hunch that the highlight of this match seems to have just begun.
