I started with Torres, to revive German football

Chapter 285 Break the game!

At No. 19 minutes, Yaya Toure intercepted the ball and passed it to David Silva. The latter stopped the ball and sent a straight pass to De Bruyne in front.

Teacher Ding took two steps forward after stopping the ball, and sent a high-quality through pass directly behind Carvajal.

I saw that Zhao Jinge was like a supercar ready to launch, catapulting from behind Carvajal to start, easily throwing off the Spaniard who wanted to intercept, after catching up with De Bruyne's pass,
He rushed straight into the left side of Real Madrid's penalty area, and after taking a step horizontally to the center to open up space, he directly raised his foot and shot angrily.

But I don’t know whether it was because I was too focused on the angle or because I was nervous when shooting. I usually had a sure shot, but today I was extremely unlucky and hit the crossbar.

The Real Madrid fans at the scene were all taken aback. This was the most threatening attack from both sides since the beginning of the game.

Zhao Jinge himself beat his chest in annoyance, and sighed.

This is his first shot since the opening!
So far, the two teams have played for nearly 10 minutes, and the total number of shot opportunities they have obtained is no more than five times. Most of the threatening attacks have been stifled by the defensive players of both sides.

It can be seen that the pressing and pressing between the two teams is really in place.

Neymar also quickly returned to defense with the team, but only retreated past the center line when he saw Zhao Jinge's shot. He also breathed a heavy sigh of relief.

Thankfully, the guy hasn't found his shooting boots tonight.

If Manchester City scores first, the game will be passive.

But thinking about it again, the main reason for this goal is that Real Madrid did not limit Manchester City's counterattack sprint in time after losing the ball in an unsuccessful attack.

And Manchester City's defensive strength today is also quite strong,
Realizing this, Neymar's face became solemn. His breakthrough encountered great resistance and he had to think of other ways.

Neymar was thinking seriously on the court, and Zidane on the sidelines was also frowning.

Compared with Guardiola who opened his arms, as if to welcome the goal, but sighed in frustration, and walked back to the coach's bench full of thoughts, Zidane's expression was very serious.

He is clearly aware that Guardiola's tactics are very targeted.

City didn't play four-three-three, which they were best at, and it didn't even look like they were playing four-four-two.

It's hard to tell exactly what Manchester City's position is tonight.

But what is certain is that Guardiola has come up with a set of defensive tactics that are completely aimed at Real Madrid. When Real Madrid takes the initiative to attack, Manchester City will at least set up four players in the midfield to chase and intercept. This is not counting Zhao Jinge Wait for the frontcourt players to counter-grab on the spot.

The presence of Yaya Toure and Kante seems very fatal, which makes it difficult for Neymar and Bell to play on the two wings.

Everyone knows that Bell on the left and Neymar on the right must cut inside to form a more active offensive threat.

Once Real Madrid's offense fails to open up the situation, the gap behind it will be easily exposed.

Just now, Carvajal didn't press forward and was pierced by Zhao Jinge's forceful speed. If Carvajal just advanced as usual, who can stop Zhao Jinge's frontal impact?

This is very troublesome.

Especially after seeing that Manchester City basically did not grab the defense, and started to press and press from the two midfield hubs of Kroos and Modric, Zidane's face became even uglier.

Guardiola knows better than anyone that if they really want to fight for the defense, Manchester City's physical energy consumption will be astonishing, and it may not be unbearable, but starting from the midfield, Manchester City's physical energy can last the entire game.

Now, the trouble is left to Real Madrid.

The ball possession rate is not bad, and it is about [-]%.

Pulling can also be done, and occasional offense can also play a threat.

But Real Madrid just couldn't play the rhythm they were familiar with.

Anyway, it is pinching at a point that makes you uncomfortable!
Even Zidane couldn't help but complain a few words.

When Zidane continued to think, Real Madrid once tried to open the situation from the left, that is, Manchester City's right. As a result, the ball was intercepted by Kompany and quickly passed to De Bruyne. Teacher Ding quickly The counterattack went to Kyle Walker on the right.

Before the England right back crossed the center line, he saw that David Silva was already plugging in at high speed, and immediately sent a straight pass close to the right line to the right side of Real Madrid's penalty area.

David Silva raced all the way, got the ball before Marcelo.

The Brazilian left-back was back in position in time to mark Silva one-on-one.

But before he could react, David Silva, after a series of feints, suddenly went to the bottom line and broke through with the ball. Pass the ball back.

Zhao Jinge followed up and faced David Silva's return pass with a push.

Zhao Jinge, who followed up, only heard a "bang", and then saw the football hit the right column and bounced back.

The whole stadium was in an uproar again!
"Oops! It's a little short again."

"Zhao Jinge's shot hit the post directly."

"I have to say that Manchester City's foot wind is a bit rough tonight!"

"Real Madrid's defense still has some problems. It has been threatened by Manchester City twice in a row, and they almost scored."

"But Real Madrid have to thank Lady Luck tonight."

"At this critical moment, Manchester City still needs to calm down and be more stable."

Zidane was very dissatisfied with Real Madrid's two consecutive defenses, and couldn't help roaring on the sidelines.

"This is a Champions League game, I want to see you perform better!"

Qi Zu didn't say much, but the anger contained in his voice still made the Real Madrid players on the court more focused.

Marcelo played the ball from the backcourt. After Modric controlled the ball on the left side of the center circle, he seized this rare opportunity without waiting for David Silva, who had penetrated too deep, to return to the defense. , kicked the ball directly to the forward field, and found Benzema as the bridgehead.

After the French center held the ball, he directly inserted it into the area behind Kompany. At this time, Kompany was personally marking Neymar who looked murderous. After sensing Benzema's intention,

Kompany turned around and quickly returned to the defense. Benzema controlled the ball before the baseline and changed his direction to retreat. The moment he passed Kompany, he passed the ball diagonally to the left in front of the penalty area.

Stones and the retreating Kanter blocked Neymar's inside route.Neymar calmly knocked the ball across the left side, then quickly moved forward after the ball was released. With Bale cutting inside, Real Madrid's two top wingers cooperated in passing and cutting at this moment, completing a cross-change when attacking the Manchester City penalty area. !
But they did not wait for Benzema's pass. The French superstar had no time to pass the ball because Kompany and Yaya Toure put pressure on him from the right front and back, and De Bruyne also blocked his pass on the move. Passing lanes.

Benzema received the ball and then hit a long shot 25 yards from the goal!
"Benzema! Powerful shot! Joe Hart!

After Joe Hart moved a step, he smoothly caught the ball from the air!

Except for the world wave, ordinary shots can't penetrate Joe Hart's ten fingers at all! "

Manchester City quickly launched another offensive. Zhao Jinge crossed with Zhao Jinge in the frontcourt and disrupted Casemiro's defensive position.

City tried again to attack Real Madrid's right flank.

Kyle Walker once again advanced further than De Bruyne, but after being sieged, he passed the ball back to Mr. Ding.

The Belgian stopped the ball near the halfway line, and there were no Real Madrid defenders around for a while.

When Modric ran over, Teacher Ding had adjusted the angle of the football. With a pull of his left foot, he managed to avoid Modric's attack and sent a long diagonal pass.

The range of this pass is very far, directly from the right side of the center line to the outside of the penalty area on the left side of the front field.

After Zhao Jinge stopped the ball with his chest, Varane pounced on him immediately, but Zhao Jinge passed the ball back to David Silva without hesitation, and continued forward, inserting himself into Real Madrid's penalty area. .

The Spanish midfielder stopped the ball, and without waiting for Teacher Tony to approach, he sent a pick pass with his left foot, which was near the penalty spot in the penalty area.

I saw that at some point, Yaya Toure, who had advanced into the penalty area, had blocked Ramos with his body. With his back to the direction of the attack, he turned sideways to the right and used his thigh to knock David Silva's The pick-up pass was placed to his right, which is to the left of the penalty spot.

There, Zhao Jinge got rid of the defending Varane as quickly as possible, quickly adjusted his body posture, and before the football landed, he faced the falling football and fired a volley into the air.

From getting rid of the ball to volleying, the whole process can be said to be completed in one go. By the time Varane caught up, he was unable to block the ball and could only watch the football go straight to the goal.

Navas originally stood on the left side, guarding against Yaya Toure who had already rushed into the penalty area, but when the ball was transferred to Zhao Jinge's feet, he moved his position to the middle.
But the cooperation between Toure and Zhao Jinge was too sudden. Zhao Jinge kept volleying the ball, and the football he drew was fast and accurate. When Navas flew out to save, there was no time?
"GOAL!!!!!!"

"Zhao Jinge!"

"Man City! Manchester City scored!"

After Zhao Jinge scored the goal, he rushed to the sideline excitedly.

The entire Etihad Stadium erupted in deafening cheers.

Manchester City fans were cheering wildly, shouting Zhao Jinge's name.

He rushed straight to the sidelines, hugged his teammates who were flying over, and celebrated the team's first goal.

"It was still a Manchester City attack, suddenly shifting from the right to the left."

"De Bruyne's transfer of the kick was just right, Zhao Jinge stopped beautifully, David Silva's back insertion was also timely, and Yaya Toure's forward insertion sent a key pass. We can see that Manchester City's entire offense is very lively and open, which makes it difficult for Real Madrid's defense to effectively contain it."

"This is already Manchester City's third shot on goal in this game! After missing two good opportunities to score in the previous two, this time they finally scored, one to zero!"

"Zhao Jinge also successfully scored his first Champions League goal of the season!"

After Guardiola saw Zhao Jinge volley and scored, he raised his fists excitedly.

At critical moments, Zhao Jinge will always bring himself extra surprises. After a season of refinement, his tacit understanding with his teammates has become stronger and stronger.

But precisely because of this, he can always create a goal for you in some situations where there seems to be no chance.

The most critical thing is the transfer of De Bruyne, David Silva and Yaya Toure just now.

Sometimes scoring goals is as simple as a flash of inspiration among the core players!
After being scored first by Manchester City, Real Madrid began to slow down the pace of the game.

Zidane is obviously also a little worried, for fear that if he continues to play like just now, Manchester City will seize the opportunity again.

After Manchester City scored the first goal, they gradually stabilized their position and began to implement Guardiola's tactics.

But then, after Real Madrid stabilized their position, they immediately launched another wave of offensive.

In this regard, Guardiola is also well prepared, and Manchester City is still playing steadily.

It was only at this moment that everyone realized that Manchester City could even play [-], allowing David Silva and De Bruyne to play as full-backs.

This is a headache for Real Madrid.

Guardiola really played Manchester City's entire tactical system like a finger. No matter how Real Madrid passes and controls the ball, there are always two lines of defense in front of Kroos and Modric.

Zhao Jinge and Zhao Jinge interfered with Real Madrid's defense from the front.

As soon as Real Madrid's front trident got the ball, they were immediately chased and intercepted.

Especially Neymar, it is really difficult to touch the ball.

"Ramos stepped in and hit a long shot directly high."

"Real Madrid's offense still failed to penetrate Manchester City's defense. Real Madrid must come up with a more effective way."

"We have seen that after Manchester City is leading by one goal, they are playing more and more steadily, and their ball possession rate is stable at around [-]%, playing with ease.

On the other hand, Real Madrid did not dare to press too high when counterattacking, for fear of being accidentally hit behind them again. "

"That's the most difficult problem for Real Madrid right now."

"Perhaps, Zidane should adjust the team's tactics, at least so that the midfielder can pass the ball effectively."

"Otherwise, if it continues like this, it may be difficult for Real Madrid to break through Manchester City's defense."

Returning to the game, Kroos in the backcourt, after getting rid of De Bruyne's harassment, came to the right of the center line and directly kicked a long pass.

After Bell received the ball, Bell's long-distance run on the wing was resolved by Kyle Walker. Real Madrid's offense once again failed, and the situation became increasingly unfavorable to them!
