Football: start copying peak Messi attributes

Chapter 269 Semi-final match, a guest at the Bernabéu!

Manchester City beat Real Madrid at home, which was a small upset.

But compared with the result of another game, their upset seems to be the same.

In another semi-final held on April 4, Bayern Munich lost 24:0 to Atletico Madrid at home.

This score was something no one expected before the game!
Although Real Madrid lost, they still had 2 away goals, and they didn't lose much, so they can accept it.

But Bayern lost at home, which is completely unacceptable.

Lost at home, do you still expect to win Atletico Madrid in the away game?

Therefore, after the game ended, the outside world was pessimistic about Bayern's promotion situation, and almost no one was optimistic about their ability to enter the final.

At the same time, after defeating the powerful Bayern, Simeone and his Atletico Madrid immediately became famous!

Among the teams that broke into the semi-finals of the Champions League, whichever team has the most stars and the highest net worth must be Real Madrid.

And Atletico Madrid ranked No.1 from the bottom without any suspense!
But it was such a bottom-ranked team that knocked down the same star-studded and expensive Bayern.

This is simply eye-popping!

For a while, the entire football world began to be curious about Simeone and his Atletico Madrid.

What is so magical about this coach that he can lead such a relatively civilian lineup and achieve such an outstanding record?

And when the outside world put Simeone and Atletico Madrid under the spotlight to praise and praise, Guardiola and his Bayern were criticized in all directions without dead ends.

This season Guardiola's Bayern has exposed a very serious problem, that is, Bayern's record is quite bad when facing strong teams.

In the group stage, when they encountered Manchester City, they had a draw and a loss, and they failed to take any advantage.

Ten days ago, in the Bundesliga, they were beaten 3-0 at home by Borussia Dortmund.

Now defeated by Atletico Madrid again...

Apart from defeating Manchester United in poor form, Bayern seems to have no record of shooting!
Bayern's players are still the same group of players, and there are very few changes in the lineup.

However, the team's tactical play has changed a lot, so the outside world naturally blamed Guardiola.

And this time, no one from the Bayern club stood up to defend him!
……

"Why don't you just come to Manchester City!"

After learning that Bayern lost the game until Guardiola was criticized by the outside world, Lin Quan took the initiative to make a phone call to comfort Guardiola.

Guardiola was speechless for a while: "Are you here to dig a corner on behalf of Manchester City?"

"That's not true. I'm just representing myself. You know our big boss. If he wants to poach people, he will directly spend money!"

Guardiola thought about the scene when Mansour came to sign Lin Quan with a contract, and nodded involuntarily. This is indeed Mansour's style.

"Let's see the results of this season first. I still have two years left in my contract with Bayern. I don't want to break the contract yet!"

Guardiola takes the contract more seriously and doesn't want to terminate the contract early.

And Bayern will probably not drive him away, after all, he has just led the team to create the second longest unbeaten record in Europe with 53 unbeaten rounds in the league.

"Besides, Barcelona is going to start the presidential election this summer. I have already rejected Laporta on the grounds of the contract. If I go back and go to Manchester City at this time, Laporta will definitely feel that I have played him!"

It seems to be worried that Lin Quan will be disappointed or even dissatisfied, Guardiola explained.

He has a very good relationship with Laporta, and he doesn't want to deceive the other party about this kind of thing, so he said that he will not leave this summer, so he will definitely not leave Bayern unless Bayern voluntarily terminates the contract.

"Okay, but you probably won't have a good time. Atletico Madrid's home game is not easy. Neither Barcelona nor Real Madrid have won at the Calderon Stadium this season."

Simeone's Atletico is tough!

How hard is it?

The top two Western Super League teams have yet to win against Atletico Madrid this season!

Are Real Madrid strong?

Double-killed by Barcelona this season!

Barcelona is strong, right?

Zero seal by Atletico Madrid!
So Lin Quan is not really surprised by Bayern's home loss.

Although Simeone's team lineup is indeed a bit civilian, but his lineup is enough to implement his technical and tactical style of play. If it is really replaced by a group of famous stars, it will not work.

"Well, I've noticed this, let's play hard in the next game, fortunately not too many behind!"

Guardiola feels that Bayern's loss is actually a bit unjust.

They have just created the longest unbeaten record of 53 rounds in the Bundesliga in the league. In order to maintain this record, the players are exhausted physically and mentally, and they are also under great psychological pressure.

This pressure accumulated more and more, and finally crushed them, and only then did they lose to Augsburg and Dortmund one after another.

It can be said that during this period, Bayern is in a period of relatively low morale.

Let alone Atletico Madrid at this time, they might not be able to play against another strong team.

But when they adjust and the morale and players' condition recover, they may not be able to make a comeback!
The crux of the problem is whether the team's state can be adjusted before the next round of the game in a week's time.

One goal behind is not too much.

At least for Bayern at its peak, it is definitely not a difficult task!
……

On April 4, the 27th round of the Premier League kicked off.

Since Manchester City has won the championship four rounds ahead of schedule, Pellegrini arranged a large number of substitutes for this game.

Their opponent Crystal Palace is currently ranked 11th in the league, with no worries about relegation and no hope for the European war. They belong to the kind of team that wants nothing.

Therefore, the game between the two sides was relatively peaceful. With the goals of Navas and Jovetic, Manchester City took the opponent 2:0.

After the game was over, the Manchester City team flew directly from London Airport to Madrid to prepare for the second round against Real Madrid three days later.

After arriving in Madrid, Manchester City entered the training base of the Getafe club.

Originally they wanted to rent Atletico Madrid's training base, but Atletico Madrid did not agree to Manchester City's application because they were worried about tactics leaking because they had to prepare for the home game against Bayern.

This is quite normal. After all, both teams have hopes of advancing to the final. If both teams advance to the final, then both sides have seen each other's tactical training in advance, and the final will have no secrets for both sides.

Moreover, based on the relationship between Lin Quan and Guardiola, Atletico Madrid is also very worried that Lin Quan will leak secrets to Guardiola.

After learning the reason for Atletico Madrid's rejection, Lin Quan was a little speechless!

What kind of person do you think you are?
Will you tell me?

He's not that boring yet!
And Guardiola doesn't need him to provide information!

As one of the top coaches in football, since the tactics of Simeone have already been fought, it is impossible for Guardiola not to see it.

Thinking of this, Lin Quan cheered Guardiola in his heart:
Come on Agua, kill Atletico Madrid and let's meet in the final together!

……

January 4, Bernabéu Stadium.

Only 16 minutes into the game, Real Madrid equalized the score!
"Ramos, he scored a goal worth a fortune with his header!"

"The current total score of the two teams is 3:3, but Real Madrid has 2 away goals. If the game ends with this score, then Real Madrid will advance to the final!"

"Manchester City's situation is a bit dangerous. Since the start, they have completely lost the initiative on the field and have fallen under the powerful offensive of Real Madrid!"

At the moment Ramos scored, the Bernabéu stadium burst into thunderous applause.

Many of the Real Madrid fans who came to watch the game were high-society successful people. They held their own identities, so they didn't shout like ordinary home fans. They restrained themselves and used applause to encourage the players.

But from the loud applause at the scene, it can be seen how excited these 'gentlemen' are.

Finally, finally to reach the Champions League final!

It's been 12 years!

Real Madrid and the fans have waited too long!

The hero of the goal, Ramos, was also very excited, and ran directly to the sidelines to celebrate with a slide.

Although he is not from Real Madrid's youth training, he has played for Real Madrid for 9 years. It can be said that he is the player who has played for Real Madrid for the longest time in the team except Casillas!
The period when he joined Real Madrid was just after the first phase of the Galaxy Battleship, when Real Madrid's record in the Champions League gradually sank.

Therefore, Ramos and the team have experienced failure after failure in the Champions League!

In the most difficult time, Real Madrid even fell to the top sixteen every year.

After surviving the most difficult period, Real Madrid finally ushered in a revival.

As the veteran of the Real Madrid team, after so many years of ups and downs with the team, Ramos has a very deep affection for Real Madrid.

As long as they can beat Manchester City, they will reach the final again after 12 years, to hit their tenth Champions League trophy in team history.

And this trophy, Real Madrid has been waiting for too long.

On the sidelines, Ancelotti was more excited than the players.

The moment he scored a goal, he raised his hands excitedly and ran on the sidelines, not even noticing that the chewing gum in his mouth had dropped.

On the other side, Man City coach Manuel Pellegrini had a bitter expression on his face and frowned deeply.

In view of Real Madrid's strong offensive capabilities and Manchester City's current leading position, Pellegrini chose defensive counterattack tactics in the away game.

This tactical choice is very pragmatic. Real Madrid is behind and must attack.

As long as Manchester City seizes the opportunity to counterattack and make a few successful counterattacks, they can expand their lead and gain valuable away goals.

His calculation was very good, but the situation of the game was very different from what he expected.

He expected that Real Madrid would attack, but he did not expect Real Madrid's attack to be so fierce.

Real Madrid, playing at home, seemed to have completely changed a team. Their attack was crazier and more unstoppable than the previous game.

And what surprised Pellegrini was that Real Madrid's wings, which were almost single-handed in the last game, actually cooperated in this game.

The connection between the two of them injected huge momentum into Real Madrid's offense.

The corner kick that Ramos scored was caused by Bell passing to Ronaldo in the frontcourt, and the latter shot.

It is already a bit difficult for Manchester City to defend Ronaldo and Bell alone.

Once they are successfully connected and play the role of one plus one greater than two, it will be almost impossible for Manchester City to defend against them!

What's more, there is a Modric on the field.

In the several attacks of Real Madrid, the one who delivered the fatal blow was often this small Croatian!
To limit his performance, a strong defensive midfielder is needed!
And there is no such person in Manchester City's formation!
Thinking of this, Pellegrini looked at the team's bench.

After being suspended for ten games in the team, Fernandinho finally lifted the ban and returned.

However, the Brazilian preferred to opt for a ten-match ban rather than apologize to Pellegrini.

This made Pellegrini hesitate, should he be replaced?

……

Seeing that the team fell behind at the start, Lin Quan felt a little helpless.

During this period of time, even he returned to the outside of the penalty area to participate in the defense, but Real Madrid's offensive was too violent.

They can score too many points in the frontcourt. Benzema, Ronaldo, Bale, Isco, Modric, and two full-backs who are good at assisting, and Harvey Alonso who is good at long-range shots , a Ramos who is good at heading.

With so many points to guard against, how could it be possible to guard against it?
The results of these ten minutes proved that when facing a team like Real Madrid, defensive counterattack tactics do not work!
They are not Atletico Madrid and cannot play that effect.

Therefore, you must attack to beat Real Madrid!
Although the total score is the same, Manchester City is already behind at this time!

Therefore, their defensive counterattack was naturally impossible. The players immediately launched a violent counterattack against Real Madrid after the re-kick-off.

However, Real Madrid's defense today was exceptionally tough. After learning the lesson from last time, they did not give Lin Quan a chance to break into the penalty area at all.

Lin Quan had just dribbled the ball close to the penalty area when he was brought down by Pepe.

The referee awarded a free kick but did not give a card, which made Manchester City's players very dissatisfied.

Lin Quan and De Bruyne discussed it, and this distance is within range for both of them.

Anyone can play this kick!
"Come on, Iker Casillas is my teammate in the national team, so I know more about my playing habits!"

Lin Quan gave up the opportunity to De Bruyne, and De Bruyne nodded, stepped back slowly, and began to prepare for free throws.

After seven or eight steps of the run-up, De Bruyne slammed the football hard and hit a high-quality elevator ball.

However, Casillas is worthy of the name of St. Cassie. Not only did he judge the right direction, but he also held De Bruyne's ball out with one hand.

This made Lin Quan frowned!

Casillas really studied the elevator ball!
Is this the result of studying the free throws between myself and De Bruyne based on the videotape, or is it based on the experience of another elevator ball master Ronaldo in the team?

No matter what, the next time you take a free kick, you can't use the elevator ball!
Lin Quan thought of the trick he used to steal from Juninho when he was a child!
I don't know what the effect of using that trick will be?
