I started with Torres, to revive German football

Chapter 311 Sudden Reversal

In the 209th minute of the first half, Bell launched an attack, passed Kante on the right side of Manchester City and then crossed to Benzema.

Benzema, who has his own metaphysics, stumbled through Yaya Toure with the ball in an awkward posture, and then pushed the ball to Neymar who cut inside before De Bruyne retreated to intercept.

Neymar drew his bow and arrow, and shot directly from the right side of Manchester City's penalty area!
Joe Hart was concentrating on Neymar's shooting action, quickly stepped on the ground to make a save, and hit the ball out of the penalty area with one palm before it could spin into the goal!

But just when Stones chased out to destroy the ball, Benzema, who rushed back to Manchester City's penalty area, made an extreme pick move and almost picked the ball outside the top of Manchester City's penalty area. one step area.

Marcelo, who did not know when to insert himself into the heart of Manchester City, swung his left foot and decisively faced the ball and fired a long shot!
Stones didn't think much and subconsciously stretched out his left foot to try to intercept Marcelo's shot.

As a result, the football just hit his calf and caused a fatal refraction. Joe Hart had already made a save at this time, and it was too late to change direction twice, so he could only try his best to turn back and rush back.

After all, Keren's movements were not as fast as the football. Joe Hart stretched his arms desperately to try to reach the football, but in the end he only touched a ball of air.

Stones was also stunned as he watched the football fly into his own goal. Laporte on the side hugged his head helplessly. There was nothing to say about this ball!

Zhao Jinge and other Manchester City players were dumbfounded.

They thought Real Madrid might equalize the score in the first half, but they didn't expect it to be equalized in this way!

Looking at Stones who was stunned on the spot with his face flushed, Zhao Jinge touched his nose and shook his head helplessly.

There is really no way to do this kind of own goal that depends on fate and everything is done!

Marcelo, who scored the goal, seemed very excited. He ran towards his teammates, opened his hands and shouted excitedly.

Benzema and Neymar followed immediately, waving their arms toward the stands in an attempt to further inspire the home fans.

In the crazy noise of the Bernabeu Stadium, Stones, who seemed a little overwhelmed, was so conspicuous.

"This goal cannot be completely blamed on Stones. As the center back of the team, he must have stretched out his feet immediately to try to intercept under the circumstances. It can only be said that he was unlucky. Marcelo's shot was in a very bad position. Accurate, strong and weak, Joe Hart can only sit back and wait for death in the face of such a refraction."

"Bad luck is one thing. Manchester City's current problem of insufficient protection of the wings is also one of the reasons why this goal was conceded. Whether it is Bale or Neymar, as long as they get past Manchester City's two full-backs, Benzema will be able to do it." Quickly connect with them, and then Manchester City will always have weak defensive sides in the defensive zone and outside the penalty area.

And Marcelo and Toni Kroos in the left half of Real Madrid happen to be good long-range shooters. Look at Marcelo's intervention this time, almost no one cares about him, so even if Manchester City does not concede the ball this time, there will be no one behind. There will definitely still be a lot of mistakes under Real Madrid's offensive rhythm. I hope Guardiola can make corresponding adjustments soon. "

Andy Gray's tone was somewhat solemn, and he objectively analyzed the defensive problems currently encountered by Manchester City.

On the offensive end, Manchester City did very well today and played their own style, but on the defensive end, just like Real Madrid, they made mistakes.

Stones did a pretty good job, and he completed the task of defending high-altitude balls very well. The loss of the ball just now cannot erase his wonderful performance on the defensive line today.

The key lies in the defense of the two wings.

Bell was in great form today, making Kanter very passive on the defensive end, and Neymar even suppressed Cancelo.

You are always being targeted by your opponents on this flank, and no matter how powerful your defensive midfielder is, you cannot guarantee that your defense will be in place every time!
The defensive midfielder combination of Yaya Toure and Kante is already strong enough in coverage and sweeping ability, but it still seems a bit stretched under Real Madrid's frequent wing attacks.

If we have to follow the rhythm of Manchester City playing in the league in the past, it will not be able to suppress the opponent's offensive, so they will only withdraw Kante, and then add a full midfielder, forming three wings of full midfielder, full midfielder and full back. The defense line, relying on the number of people, overwhelmed the opponent.

But today's game obviously can't be played like this anymore. If Manchester City wants to score as many goals as possible at Real Madrid's home court, they can't keep adding more people on the defensive end as they did in the past.

Moreover, Real Madrid is not afraid of opponents setting their sights. If Guardiola really wants to play another midfielder to focus on defense, Zidane will laugh.

Zhao Jinge and De Bruyne truly threatened Real Madrid's defensive system. Zidane is now mentally prepared to score two or more goals by Manchester City.

Zizou plans to fight Manchester City offensively to the end, as long as Real Madrid can finally win this game.

So if Manchester City dares to change their formation and play defense, they will really break their own arm!
The only correct path is to continue to provide offensive support to Zhao Jinge.

Worst of all, there must be an offensive trio in the frontcourt. When Zhao Jinge, Mahrez and others rush forward, there must be a stable delivery point for artillery shells in the back.

Otherwise, it would be too tiring for the forward line to expend physical energy and energy to attack, and to advance with the ball by themselves, and they may not be efficient on the offensive end.

So when the game restarted again, Guardiola gave up the idea of ​​strengthening the wing defense after a slight hesitation.

At this moment, Manchester City has finally come up with its own offensive ideas. Even if they are equalized by Real Madrid, there is no need to panic.

Real Madrid can fly with both wings, but Manchester City can also play fixed-point blasting!
Carvajal can stop Mahrez once or twice, but he can't be so lucky every time. He can get stuck first. As long as Mahrez rushes up once, Real Madrid's right wing can become his running horse. field.

Not to mention Zhao Jinge. Even if Real Madrid now switches to Varane to defend Zhao Jinge, Guardiola still firmly believes that Zhao Jinge can continue to score goals under Varane's marking.

Attacking the opponent's central defender is Zhao Jinge's favorite thing to do. Neither Pepe nor Ramos can stop the current Zhao Jinge. Varane is really annoying to be honest!

It’s just that Real Madrid’s layer-by-layer blocking defensive system is very troublesome. No matter how good Zhao Jinge is, if he can’t get the ball, there’s nothing he can do against Real Madrid’s defense.

So how to get the two wingers represented by Mahrez to rush forward and how to get Zhao Jinge to get more balls in the hinterland of Real Madrid is now the key to Manchester City's continued success.

Guardiola cleared away the tactical fog that shrouded his eyes and became determined to fight Real Madrid to the end!
But just when he was about to instruct Yaya Toure and Kanter not to be mentally burdened and press forward a little more, Zhao Jinge took advantage of a dead ball and trotted to the sidelines. "Boss, we can't continue playing like this. Their three midfielders are so coordinated. If Kevin can't get the ball, I can only wait in front. Do you want me to drop back to the ninth and a half position?" , Kevin can’t do anything with those two midfielders, but I can!”

Guardiola was stunned by what Zhao Jinge blurted out, and Guagua subconsciously retorted.

"Don't be ridiculous! When you go to position [-], who will go to the front to catch the ball?"

As soon as these words came out, Guardiola reacted instantly.

Zhao Jinge seems to be unable to catch the ball a few times now, so instead of letting him continue to play the center position, it is better to move him back to catch the ball.

When it comes to ball-holding ability, Zhao Jinge is no worse than David Silva and De Bruyne.

And depending on the situation, David Silva’s organization is not needed today. David Silva can completely move to the right and give up the entire middle to Zhao Jinge. This guy has staged many long-distance attacks. What a show!

Just now, he was thinking about how to get Zhao Jinge to catch more balls, but now, Zhao Jinge directly proposed a solution.

"I have no problem with my physical fitness. I will not be weak until the end of this fight. Boss, please think about it carefully. I am really capable. Toni Kroos and Casemiro really can't do anything to me!"

Zhao Jinge took the lead to show that there would be no problem with his physical fitness. At this moment, Real Madrid's throw-in had been sent, and Zhao Jinge did not dare to delay any longer. He said a few words in a hurry and ran back to his position.

Guardiola, however, fell into new thinking. The frontcourt offensive trio he had previously conceived was not like this, and precisely because he wanted Zhao Jinge and the two wingers to attack with all their strength, he arranged a ten-man team behind them. to deliver the artillery shells, but now it seems that the plan has not changed.

Guagua is actually a little moved. Zhao Jinge's proposal can solve the current problem of Manchester City's unfavorable offensive advancement.

And compared to advancing from the wing, if Zhao Jinge can break through the interception of Real Madrid's midfield defense in the middle, Manchester City can reverse the situation in an instant.

Not to mention scoring another goal soon to take the lead, at least Manchester City also had an advantageous offensive area that could take advantage of Real Madrid.

You don't necessarily have to make moves on the front line to attack your shortcomings. If you close your fist and create a big hole for Real Madrid in the middle, that would be fatal enough!

The more Guardiola thought about it, the more he felt that Zhao Jinge's suggestion was feasible, and he immediately called the assistant coach to discuss the next tactical changes and player position changes.

But just when they finished their discussion and were about to take advantage of the next dead ball opportunity to make adjustments, Real Madrid launched a fierce offensive, and the balance of power on the court that had lasted for some time was broken!

Casemiro's sudden dribbling forward disrupted Manchester City's defensive arrangement. Yaya Toure was forced to intercept. At this time, Benzema retreated very smartly to receive Casemiro's pass. Taking advantage of the situation, he pushed the ball towards Manchester City's left wing!

Neymar, who had already pressed to the edge of Manchester City's penalty area, easily got the ball. When Carvajal on the edge came from his side, he decisively led the ball and cut inside.

Cancelo failed to keep up with the first step, and it was this short step that gave Neymar enough opportunity to adjust his footing and shoot!

The King of Brazil immediately made a cross, and then at the moment when countless Real Madrid fans were about to jump and cheer, he suddenly changed the posture of pushing the ball with the arch of his feet, fake shot and passed!

This time Neymar fooled almost everyone, including most of his teammates.

Only Bell, who was aware of the situation on the diagonal, took advantage of Benzema's cover and rushed straight to the back of the Manchester City goal. Finally, he faced the falling football and completed a powerful close-range shot!

Joe Hart subconsciously stretched out his palm to block the ball, but Bale's force was too strong. The football quickly bounced to the ground, and then bounced from Joe Hart's armpit into the Manchester City goal!

The raised white net made countless Real Madrid fans crazy about it!
The entire Santiago Bernabeu Stadium was pulsing like a volcanic eruption. Amid the excited cheers of the on-site commentator, the live camera recorded the passionate roaring faces of Real Madrid fans!

"Real Madrid is Real Madrid! Even if we fall behind at home, so what? We have the best coach and players! 10 minutes! It only takes 10 minutes for Real Madrid to complete the comeback! This is the gap in strength, Manchester City is very strong ! But Real Madrid is stronger!"

Real Madrid scored a reversal goal in the 308th minute of the first half. This time was very embarrassing for Manchester City, who had been reversed.

At least that's what Manchester City fans think at this point.

First of all, it is impossible to make quick changes in tactical adjustments.

After all, this meeting is about to enter the halftime break. Instead of making adjustments in a hurry, it is better to wait for the halftime break to think about it.

The second is the morale of the players on the field.

Zhao Jinge seemed calm at the moment, Teacher Ding and David Silva were only slightly depressed, but Stones and Yaya Toure looked a little impatient and lost.

Yaya Toure was a bit irritable, lowering his head and cursing at the turf, while Stones put his hands on his hips and shook his head. A slightly depressed mood quickly spread in Manchester City's midfield and backcourt.

Zhao Jinge didn't say anything, he just stepped forward and patted the shoulders and backs of his teammates in the frontcourt before walking towards his own half.

Something is wrong with the situation. Real Madrid is obviously playing their own rhythm. At this time, Manchester City must not be in chaos first. They must first unify the team's thinking and vent excess negative emotions.

Therefore, Zhao Jinge did not encourage his teammates directly as he did in the past. Instead, he first walked to Yaya Toure, who was the most emotional, put his arm around his shoulders, and waited for him to curse angrily for a while before he began to comfort him.

"I know everyone is angry and unhappy right now. Maybe we didn't do a good enough job in some aspects, which led to this situation. This is the responsibility of all of us.

When we return to the locker room later, we can raise these issues one by one and solve them, but now we have no reason to continue to be depressed. Brace yourself, we cannot let Real Madrid continue to expand their lead! "
