Football: After listening to the persuasion, I became the strongest free man!

Chapter 322 Sharp counterattack! Brazilian Pato!

The most outstanding skill of the Brazilians is their physical ability to keep running.

Taking the lead in the first half was Real Madrid's top priority.

The game is still going on in an orderly manner, and judging from the scene, Real Madrid still occupies an absolute dominant position.

With Bai Ran on the court, Real Madrid's entire team played very reasonably. The entire team was united, just like 11 people sharing one brain.

And this is indeed the case. This brain is undoubtedly No. 37 Bai Ran in front of the central defender line.

Let's take a look at Bai Ran's position and analyze his skills.

On the court, some players handle the ball perfectly. Maybe from God's perspective, everything that happens is so natural, but when we switch to the player's perspective, we will know how difficult it is.

Only a football genius can master this position so well at the age of 17!

In this game, Real Madrid's pressure and flexibility left a deep impression on people. The balanced formation of 4141 can advance, attack, retreat or defend. The front quartet can be changed at will, not to mention that there is Bai Ran who can be inserted at any time. .

This second, Bai Ran was still defending in the middle. The next time he defended, Bai Ran appeared on the wing again.

Just as flexible as the frontcourt changes are Real Madrid's future offensive formations.

Compared with the previous attempts of a single defensive midfielder, Modric's position in this game is actually slightly behind. Strictly speaking, Bai Ran and Modric can form a double defensive midfielder.

Zidane chose this tactic because Bai Ran moved back, which also gave Marcelo and Danilo a great degree of freedom.

They are also one of the very few defenders who can withstand the impact of the opponent's forward. They are world-class in terms of burst and speed, and their offensive ability is also evident.

With the addition of Marcelo, the overall system expanded into a 244 formation.

A center rotating around the center provides more changes for the attack in the center. Benzema's super personal ability and comprehensive technical characteristics can often bring unexpected surprises to Real Madrid.

The three players in the middle and the players on the wings can swap positions at any time to increase the flexibility of the offense.

Among them, Bai Ran's movement is the key to the forward and wing explosion.

In the 30th minute of the game, Real Madrid pressed in the middle of the midfield. At this time, pay attention to Bell on the wing. After canceling the tactical status of the winger, Bell actually acted as a winger in Zidane's system. Avant-Garde Responsibilities.

As a wide midfielder, when pressing, Bell must first restrict the opponent's central midfielder from receiving the ball. This is also the movement principle of the wide midfielder in the pressing system of many classic tactics.

Because it is more dangerous to be penetrated by opponents from the center than to distribute the ball to the wings, and they will have more choices.

After being blocked by the opponent in the passing route in the middle, Bruno Soriano chose to split to the wing.

But the intention of this pass was very obvious. At this time, Bai Ran shouted loudly: "Bell! Keep an eye on him!"

"Don't let him go inside! Hurry!"

Bell was very obedient. All members of Real Madrid heard Bai Ran's call and paid more attention, blocking other lines, leaving only the option of splitting sides for the opponent.

Bell also quickly started to press the opponent at this time.

Under pressure, Soriano made a mistake with his first touch of the ball. After Bell intercepted the ball, he ran to the frontcourt without knowing it. Bell stole the ball and passed it to the frontcourt. After being poked out, Bai Ran instantly took over the ball.

Bai Ran in the middle continuously observed the position of Ronaldo on the weak side. The contest between Ronaldo and the opponent's full-back just now not only made Ronaldo understand the gap in strength between the opponent and himself, but also allowed Bai Ran to capture, perhaps from the left. This is their biggest breakthrough today.

Then Bai Ran made a light pass and passed the ball to Bai Ran's feet. After that, Bai Ran didn't stay still, but quickly pushed forward diagonally. This movement was to open up a bigger weak point. Side neutral.

This made the opponent's full-back even more confused. Bai Ran's movement was like a ghost, making the opponent unpredictable. After all, Bai Ran and Cristiano Ronaldo were both difficult to guard.

After Ronaldo got the ball, he hit the middle. After passing the ball, Bai Ran quickly turned around, moved laterally, and opened his body to receive Ronaldo's pass.

After receiving the ball, Bai Ran shot directly!

This shot was of high quality, hitting the upper left corner of the goal. It drew a wonderful arc above the Bernabeu, but was ultimately rejected by the opponent's goalkeeper.

This goal is a pity, but Bai Ran's excellent awareness and movement have been praised by the fans in the audience.

In this attack, Bai Ran opened up space through very smart supporting runs, which almost allowed Ronaldo to get at least a one-on-one advantage. Although the ball was passed to Bai Ran in the end, this time The breakthrough did cause a devastating blow to the opponent.

Therefore, running is not necessarily about making yourself comfortable, but making teammates comfortable is the absolute truth.

But to do this is actually not that easy.

Of course, during this run, Benzema also subtly restrained the opponent's other central defender, but Bai Ran's running role in this attack is more important, which also reflects his extremely high speed. golf quotient.

In the 38th minute of the game, Marcelo held the ball from the wing and knocked back. As soon as Modric took the ball, he immediately started an attack. The target of the attack was the blind spot behind the opponent's forward central defender.

This start from the edge of the penalty area directly attracted the full-back behind Ronaldo, which put Ronaldo directly in an unmarked situation.

Let the team's strongest scorer get the ball in the opponent's penalty area with the largest space. This is the ultimate goal of Bai Ran's movement.

Unfortunately, in the final stage, Modric's cross was inaccurate and did not pose a great threat.

This pass can be considered a big mistake by Modric. For such a midfield master, such a mistake can be considered a low-level mistake.

After these two attacks, no one will be surprised by Real Madrid's success during this period.

Because in this attack, Bai Ran once again made a large-scale cover run for Ronaldo.

It can be seen that at the beginning of this attack, Ronaldo has been looking for space to exploit.

However, it wasn't until Bai Ran's sudden start that Ronaldo's offensive space was truly opened up.

This is not relying on Bai Ran's passing or body or speed, this is something related to the brain. Bai Ran has such awareness on the court and his movement is also very sharp. This is often the key to defeating the enemy.

From the perspective of the audience, it seems that the entire process of opening up the offensive space can be seen more clearly. From the perspective of the fans, the offensive effect of Bai Ran is even more shocking.

Cristiano Ronaldo did not enter the penalty area in a hurry, but performed a huge arc motion curve and ran around to the back.

When he raised his hand to ask for the ball, he actually did not enter the penalty area immediately.

By reading the scene to select offensive positions, Ronaldo successfully found a defensive vacuum.

Bai Ran, who was behind, after constant observation, suddenly started to create space for his teammates. Therefore, this offense was a spark between two players with great football intelligence.

Although there was no score, this offense was a textbook and a work of art in football.

Three minutes later, Real Madrid launched another attack.

In a surprise attack from the wing, Ronaldo ran at high speed after receiving Modric's pass.

Modric finally made no mistakes with this goal. He made a precise and elegant pass and tore through the opponent's defense.

After Ronaldo took the ball, he attacked the opponent's defense line on the wing. You can see Bai Ran in front of him in the process of following up. He first turned his head to observe the follow-up of his teammates in advance.

Then Bai Ran suddenly accelerated, made a diagonal move to distance himself from the defensive player, and reached out to signal his teammates to send a through ball.

This diagonal run is to have a larger shooting space after getting the ball. His goal is to move diagonally closer to the center in advance and get a better shooting angle.

However, after Ronaldo's through ball was blocked and rebounded by the opponent's central defender, Bai Ran quickly adjusted and gave up the idea of ​​​​shooting, but instead used his heel to ferry. The reason why this temporary change in decision-making can achieve success comes from Observation at the beginning of the attack.

Before everything happened, Bai Ran already knew the distribution of the players around him, the positions of his teammates, and the positions of the opponent's defensive players.

Bai Ran's back-heel pass was quite threatening. Before the goalkeeper had time to react, behind Bai Ran was Benzema who was eager to take the shot!

He also knew clearly that when Plan A of shooting fell through, the teammate who wanted to assist in Plan B was right next to him.

This is what a world-class midfielder should have.

At this moment, Benzema immediately stepped in behind him. After Bai Ran's heel pass, Benzema adjusted his body position and pushed the ball into the opponent's net from the lower right corner. The goal was scored!

There was little time left in the first half, and Real Madrid opened the scoring at this critical moment!

Bai Ran's assist, Benzema's score!

Bai Ran's movement in this attack was almost perfect. First, he attracted most of the defensive forces for Ronaldo. When Ronaldo chose to pass the ball, Bai Ran used his God's perspective to distinguish the distribution of people around him. .

In this case, Bai Ran pulled the ball back with an idea, and Benzema caught up behind him and scored in one fell swoop.

beautiful!

After the goal, the game continued.

The situation has become 1-0, and Villarreal will be under greater pressure next.

Pato also scratched his head, trying to find any clues in the opponent's formation.

Under Bai Ran's leadership, the opponent's defense seemed impenetrable, and it was difficult to have any particularly threatening offensive opportunities.

The game continued, and in the 43rd minute, Real Madrid's offense pressed forward again.

This time it was not a quick counterattack or a long-distance attack, but a tug-of-war for Real Madrid in the frontcourt.

In positional battles, Real Madrid actually does not have an advantage, because most of their players are physically strong, fast, and have certain height advantages. They can occupy a very good position in sharp and rapid counterattacks.

But if the game is dragged into a positional battle, all these advantages of Real Madrid will be lost.

Fortunately, with Bai Ran's midfield dispatch, Real Madrid did not lose the ball so easily when organizing the offense.

Modric took the ball and gave it to Bai Ran, who was looking around.

At the moment when Bale and Ronaldo advanced at the same time, Bai Ran took advantage of the blind spot in the opponent's defender's field of vision and chose a very exquisite passing angle. This time the pass passed over the heads of everyone on the opponent's side and came steadily to the opponent's goal line. second half.

There was a melee in the penalty area.

The high-speed insertion of Cristiano Ronaldo and Bale on the wing, as well as Benzema's support from behind, all added luster to Real Madrid's offense.

However, the opponent's center back also had quick hands and eyes. The moment he saw the ball, he immediately used his body to block Benzema's position in the middle. He used some small movements with his hands to interfere with Benzema's header, causing the ball to not be passed by him. Zema was transported to Ronaldo's feet.

After that, the opponent's midfielder Soriano got the ball. He didn't think too much. The first priority was to make a clearance!

As a result, Soriano directly raised his big foot and knocked the ball away.

The ball floated in the sky above the Bernabeu for a long time, and it was a high and far clearance.

The first landing point seems to be in Real Madrid's half, and Pato and Ronaldo in the backcourt are competing for a point.

When Bai Ran saw this scene, his heart skipped a beat, it was broken!

Where does Ronaldo have any defensive ability?

So Bai Ran immediately shouted: "Return to defense! Return to defense!"

At the same time, Bai Ran had already started his pace, running quickly on the court to his own half to save the game.

With Real Madrid empty behind, this is the most dangerous place. It depends on whether Ronaldo can hold it back!

Now Real Madrid is in an offensive position, so the distribution of personnel is very uneven. There are only three people in the backcourt, Varane, Ramos, and Ronaldo.

Their personnel are gathered in the frontcourt.

Once this ball is won by the opponent, the consequences will be disastrous!

Ronaldo actually doesn't have to compete with the opponent to get to this point. He just needs to try his best to interfere with the opponent's ball and don't let the opponent stop the ball so comfortably at his feet or rush forward.

Delay time!

"Delay for time!"

"James! Hold him down!"

Of course Ronaldo is trying his best, but Villarreal's forward Pato's physical fitness is not limited. James Rodriguez simply can't bear this stoop!

Moreover, in the competition for high-altitude balls, Ronaldo could not take advantage at all.

What's more, it was interfered by Pato again?

With Pato's head, James Rodriguez was directly forced to give up a position, and the space was completely exposed to Pato's side.

The Brazilian's football talent was also fully demonstrated at this moment.

For such a high-altitude ball, Pato gently used his feet to cushion the ball, and the ball landed at his feet as steadily as an old dog.

It is indeed a high-end product from AC Milan, and its skills on the feet are really good!

Even though technical aspects are not his strong point, a star is a star, and he is still incomparable with ordinary players.

Ronaldo originally wanted to step forward and counterattack, but Varane couldn't bear his temper. There was only a forward on the opposite side, so just cut it off!

Varane's step forward made Pato notice this opportunity. After the ball was stopped by him, he suddenly turned around and wow!

The ball was carried several meters away!

At this moment, the distance between Pato and the ball was instantly stretched, but at this moment, the center of gravity of Varane and Ramos was all moving towards Pato.

This time, Ramos and Varane had no time to shift their focus and chase the ball back.

Pato used the speed of a cheetah to catch up in time and win the ball at lightning speed!

Ruined!

Bai Ran was still chasing after him, and none of the Real Madrid players behind him tried their best to retreat.

But it was too late, Pato was too fast!

I saw him turn around and go out with the ball, and caught up with the ball again like lightning, just like he was at the peak of his AC Milan days!

Seeing Pato's back, Bai Ran once again remembered his fear of being dominated by Pato when he was playing football in China...

This player can perform so well in the top leagues in Europe, let alone the low-level leagues in China...

Pato's strength remains the same.

Even Pato during this period was more terrifying than Pato who came to China to play football.

Bai Ran needs to overcome her natural fear of him before she can hope to win the game.

Pato was unstoppable, taking three steps and two steps at a time. He strode to the penalty area of ​​Real Madrid in an instant. Facing Casilla's attack, Pato took his time and raised his right foot and then pushed.

The ball obediently swept past Casilla and rolled into the Real Madrid gate.

The goal was scored!

Villarreal equalized the score!

At the end of the first half, Yellow Submarine pulled themselves back from death!

Pato's goal! A sharp counterattack!

After scoring the goal, Curly Pato rushed to the sidelines and celebrated with the fans, and the atmosphere was immediately ignited.

Zidane looked at the situation on the field thoughtfully, and for a moment he sighed in his heart. It seemed that the situation in La Liga had changed suddenly.

Since Bai Ran joined Real Madrid, their team has been greatly strengthened in every transfer window, just to cope with Real Madrid's gap in strength.

They also understand one thing, if they fall behind, they will be beaten!

Now that Real Madrid dominates the entire Europe, they cannot be willing to fall behind.

Therefore, all kinds of stars from Europe, South America or other continents are recruited by Spanish teams.

It seems that if this trend continues, in a few years, the Spanish Primera Division will become the number one league in the world...
