Chapter 377 Yang Hao’s magical substitution! We will reach the Champions League final! [A big chapter with ten thousand words, please beg me to subscribe]

"I am now basically certain that UEFA is not only targeting La Liga, but also Valencia!"

At the Patna training base in the northwest suburbs of Valencia, coach Ancelotti almost collapsed when he learned that Atletico Madrid was drawn in the quarterfinals.

This is so nonsense!
"Look at this year's draw. Four La Liga teams were fighting each other, but we met Atletico Madrid again."

Ancelotti is now speaking behind closed doors and can express his thoughts without reservation in front of Demichelis, as well as chairman Mubarak and technical director Javier Subirac who came here specially.

It is very dangerous for Valencia to compete with Atletico Madrid in the Champions League quarter-finals.

"There is no doubt that Atletico Madrid is still the strongest team in world football today." Subirac looked at Mubarak and explained.

He was speaking for Ancelotti to prevent Mubarak from thinking that Ancelotti was timid.

Of course Mubarak knows, because he is not only familiar with Cerezo, but also very familiar with Atletico Madrid.

He knew how strong the bed sheet army was.

Mubarak only mentioned to Mansour and Subilaz that he hoped to learn from Atletico Madrid and build a team like Atletico Madrid, and the position of the head coach should remain stable.

"Kaka, Messi, Adriano, Torres, Iniesta, David Silva... when they all start, our pressure will indeed be very, very high." Mubarak agreed with Anche. Perspectives of Lottie and Subilac.

But there is no way, victory or defeat depends on that one goal, and Ancelotti often has no control over it.

“I personally feel that both Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid have invested a lot of effort in the Champions League this season, and Real Madrid has to be distracted by the Copa del Rey final, and the most important thing is that Atletico Madrid will face Real Madrid at home in the 29th round. "

Negredo chose to go to Sevilla because he couldn't get any chance to play in front of the three major stars Ibrahimovic, Benzema and Higuain.

Yang Hao actually did the best job at Atletico Madrid.

Needless to say, Di Maria, Marcelo and others.

Ancelotti looked at Mubarak and Subilac, gritted his teeth and said: "When necessary, I think we should focus more on La Liga and concentrate our forces on one front to break out, rather than focusing on two fronts. "

Especially against Barcelona.

Yang Hao's ability to do this ultimately lies in his ability to stick to the right things for a long time at Atletico Madrid.

After Mubarak and Subiraz looked at each other, they both nodded in agreement.

But the conversation immediately changed, "But if we want to win the championship, we will encounter these strong teams sooner or later. Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid will definitely not be able to escape. It's just a matter of time, isn't it?"

"It's okay, Carlo. We all believe in you and support you. Don't put too much mental burden on us. We are very satisfied with the team's performance so far, really."

He is not afraid of meeting Atletico Madrid, but feels that it is too early to meet Atletico Madrid in the quarterfinals.

Of course, Yang Hao is also under great pressure now.

Mourinho really defended and finally scored through a counterattack.

Wenger is another case.

Mubarak spoke sincerely.

He hopes to give Ancelotti a reassurance in this way.

During his tenure at Real Madrid, Wenger actually promoted many young players, including De La Rede, Parejo, Negredo, etc., and they all shone in Wenger's hands.

After successive losses to Atletico Madrid and Barcelona in La Liga, the league ranking fell to third place.

But Real Madrid has very high requirements for players, so after experiencing and competing with the first team, it is difficult for these young players to stay in the first team and can only be released one after another.

The first team has top superstars, but it also strongly supports young players.

Mubarak once carefully summarized and analyzed Atletico Madrid's success, believing that Yang Hao's long-term coaching played a key role in Atletico Madrid's stability.

Is there anything Ancelotti can do?

Among them, Hazard and Isco have both received very high praise, and Koke has also had eye-catching performances at critical moments in the first team this season.

For example, Mourinho's coaching at Barcelona has always been unstable, which has led to his promotion and use of youth team players being criticized by the Catalan media.

In fact, Valencia's lineup configuration is indeed very luxurious, but there are indeed not many head coaches who can control it.

"That would be our chance to get back to the top of La Liga!"

This made Ancelotti very depressed.

In the past two seasons, young players such as Hazard, Isco, and Koke have also emerged.

Valencia is now fighting on two fronts.

Ancelotti is the most suitable head coach that the Bat Corps can see at present, and he is also the one with the biggest cards.

"A later time would be more appropriate," Ancelotti replied.

He still remembered that Yang Hao once said that the fierce competition in La Liga has led to serious instability in the head coach's position, which has led to many head coaches being most concerned about the immediate results after taking office, rather than the future of the team. and long-term construction.

Can he accuse Mourinho: You are not allowed to keep it!
Now, the Champions League knockout round encounters Atletico Madrid, and the pressure is even greater.

"We are now chasing too closely for points in the league." Valencia is now feeling heavy pressure.

De La Red retired early due to heart problems.

For example, Parejo, in front of Pirlo, can only compete with Gago for the substitute position.

Real Madrid has reached the final of the Copa del Rey this season, La Liga is now the leader, and Barcelona is facing Barcelona in the Champions League. Wenger's current pressure will only be greater than Ancelotti.

And Wenger.

Shrinking the front line is indeed a very good choice.

However, the team finally reached the quarterfinals and met Atletico Madrid. Do they just give up?

Ancelotti also noticed it, and immediately said: "Of course, we are not admitting defeat directly, but we must fight to the death with Atletico Madrid. We are home first and then guest. I think we can try it at home. Try Atletico.”

"Okay, you are the head coach of the team. You are fully responsible for the season strategy. We support it unconditionally!" Mubarak stated readily, giving Ancelotti absolute trust.

This makes the Italians very satisfied.

After coaching Valencia, he found that he received a lot of trust.

Even in football, he has a high say and works very well with Subilac, the technical director.

Valencia will dig out almost any player he wants at all costs.

Nowadays, there is not much pressure on grades.

Let me ask, is there a better coaching environment in the world than this?
……

Two days after the Champions League quarter-finals were drawn, La Liga ushered in the 2th round.

Atletico Madrid faces Almeria away from home.

Atletico Madrid, which had just massacred Copenhagen at home, once again dealt its opponent the most fatal blow on the road.

In this cruel away game, Messi scored a hat trick and had 3 assists to help Atletico Madrid beat Almeria 8-0 away from home.

Goals, assists, double hat trick!
This brutal massacre not only shocked the whole of Spain, but even European football was horrified.

Who can stop Atletico Madrid like this?

How can we compete with Messi like this?

In the Champions League, he scored a hat trick against Copenhagen. In this round against Almeria, he scored a double hat trick of goals and assists. This is definitely a rhythm that will go to heaven!
At the post-match press conference, the Argentine superstar was satisfied with his outstanding performance in the recent period, and also believed that his condition was improving.

"The person I should be most grateful to is our boss."

"He told me that proper rest and rotation can make me play stronger."

"It turns out he was right!"

The previous rotation and rest have allowed Messi to have a big breakout in the last two games.

However, Real Madrid and Valencia also both won.

Therefore, the La Liga ranking remains unchanged.

……

On March 3, in the 19th round of La Liga, Atletico Madrid faced Real Madrid at home.

This is a peak showdown that attracts worldwide attention and gathers superstars.

After Messi won the FIFA Ballon d'Or, the two teams in this game gathered 5 Ballon d'Or winners.

More importantly, both teams have top-ranked superstars in almost every position in the world today.

This makes both teams' lineups extremely luxurious.

Before the game, everyone felt that the team most capable of competing with Atletico Madrid in world football today is Real Madrid.

Wenger also used a forward-looking attitude at the pre-match press conference, saying that the team will definitely be able to defeat Atletico Madrid at the Emirates Stadium and defend the hard-won throne of La Liga leader.

Yang Hao also shouted that he will be the leader of La Liga at the Emirates Stadium!
Both super giants have shown unprecedented ambitions and an indomitable fighting spirit.

This made the game very intense from the beginning.

Less than a minute into the game, Cristiano Ronaldo threatened Atletico Madrid's goal with a wonderful shot.

But the Sheets Army responded immediately.

Both sides played very unrestrainedly, working hard to create opportunities and find gaps in the opponent's defense.

The most threatening thing was that in the 9th minute, Yaya Toure suddenly dribbled the ball forward and rushed to the edge of the penalty area. When he could hit the goal himself, he chose to pass the ball behind him.

Ibrahimovic used his body to block Thiago Silva in the penalty area, stopped the ball with a very beautiful chest, turned around and kicked the ball high. .

The Swedish striker's current situation in Real Madrid is also quite embarrassing.

The cooperation between him and Ronaldo is very tacit, after all, they have played together for so many years.

But as Ronaldo scores more and more goals, his tactical role in the team is also growing. Ibrahimovic was originally able to keep pace with Ronaldo, but now he is overtaken by the Portuguese.

The funniest thing is that Ibrahimovic's agent Raiola also got into trouble with Cristiano Ronaldo's agent Mendes.

There was a saying before that during the contract renewal negotiations with Real Madrid, Raiola made it clear that the amount Real Madrid paid to Cristiano Ronaldo must be paid to Ibrahimovic, otherwise there would be no need to negotiate a contract renewal.

This is very troublesome.

Moreover, Raiola also expressed that he asked Real Madrid to support Ibrahimovic to compete for the FIFA Ballon d'Or, just like Ronaldo before them.

This is obviously a posture to compete with Ronaldo.

But the problem is that Ibrahimovic's efficiency is indeed not as good as Ronaldo.

Just like just now, although he was so strong and had an advantage in height, he had already squeezed away from Thiago Silva. He turned around and kicked to hit the goal, but it was hit high.

Who can I talk to to explain this?

Just 1 minute later, Atletico Madrid gave Real Madrid a painful lesson.

Xabi Alonso passed the ball, and Kaká turned his back to the direction of attack. He immediately passed the ball behind him with the instep of his outside foot, then turned around and started.

A beautiful ball passed directly past Essien.

The Ghanaian Buffaloes tried their best to chase, but were always half a body behind Kaká.

When the Brazilian rushed to Real Madrid's 30-meter area, he suddenly sent a direct pass.

Torres quickly moved forward between the two central defenders Vidic and Kompany, successfully countered offside, caught up with Kaka's pass, and scored single-handedly in the penalty area, 1-0!

The Atletico Madrid captain's goal was very unpretentious!

There was neither the courage of Ibrahimovic to "crush" Thiago Silva with his body, nor the ease and ease of turning around and volleying, but Torres' shot scored.

This is the most important!
The captain of Atletico Madrid used the simplest, most practical method, which is also what he is best at, to break Real Madrid's goal.

This is a very obvious contrast to Ibrahimovic's missed goal opportunity a minute ago.

When Kaka advanced with the ball, Messi did not continue to lean towards the center when he saw that Alves did not move forward. Instead, he pulled Ashley Cole away to create a pass for Kaká. Out of space.

Atletico Madrid's teamwork is obviously better than Real Madrid's.

……

After taking the lead, Atletico Madrid went all out and caught Real Madrid's defense in play.

Especially from the 15th minute to the 30th minute, in just 15 minutes, Atletico Madrid completely suppressed Real Madrid in passing and controlling the ball or creating opportunities.

The sheet army has the idea of ​​​​eating Real Madrid in one breath.

But Real Madrid is not a fuel-efficient lamp.

This side is desperately organizing defense, while the other side is waiting for the opportunity to launch a quick counterattack.

In the 34th minute, Pirlo sent a long pass. Ronaldo crossed behind him and competed with Ramos for speed.

The two caught up with Pirlo's pass almost at the same time, both entered Atletico Madrid's penalty area, and rushed towards the ball at the same time. As a result, Ronaldo fell in the penalty area with Ramos in his arms.

Judging from the slow-motion replay, the two were entangled at the time. Ramos did have some moves on his hands, but the Portuguese had lost his best position. In this case, it is difficult to distinguish between them. Not a foul.

The referee punished Ronaldo for diving.

The reason is that Ramos's hand movements were not enough to cause the Portuguese to fall so badly.

What's more important is that Ramos' hands were always moving, and the two had moves with each other, but he fell to the ground after missing the best position.

Real Madrid were very dissatisfied with this, and Wenger was furious on the sidelines. He pointed at the referee and yelled, and was even given a yellow card.

Yang Hao was secretly happy, this is the benefit of playing at home!
But Ronaldo is still very threatening on the court.

In the 41st minute of the first half, he received a pass from Yaya Toure, dribbled the ball along the left rib, broke through Ramos, and broke into the left side of the penalty area.

If Neuer hadn't abandoned the goal decisively and fell down in time to save the ball, Ronaldo would have hit the goal.

The first half ended with Torres' goal, leading 1-0.

But in the second half, the side changed and the game started again. In the first 3 minutes, David Silva used a move to hit the goal near the left line of the small penalty area, but it hit the side netting.

Subsequently, Kaka's long shot from 20 meters away from the goal forced Casillas to make a save.

And in the 54th minute, Marcelo dribbled the ball from the left and made a continuous fake move. After passing Yaya Toure, he made a pass to find Torres in the middle or Mei in the back. West.

As a result, when everyone was unexpected, Marcelo feinted a shot and suddenly knocked the ball back.

Iniesta broke out from the gap in the crowd, met Marcelo's pass, and fired a low shot.

The ball rubbed the root of the left post and entered Real Madrid's goal.

Casillas couldn't do anything about it.

2 is better than 0!

……

After conceding two goals in a row, Real Madrid started a crazy counterattack.

In the 66th minute, Joaquin, who had just come on as a substitute for 6 minutes, sent a cross from the right.

Cristiano Ronaldo penetrated the penalty area at high speed, overwhelmed Ramos, and headed the ball through Neuer's goal.

1 is better than 2!

After scoring the goal, the Portuguese quickly rushed into Atletico Madrid's goal, picked up the football and ran away.

Just 3 minutes later, Ronaldo took the ball again. After completing a beautiful one-two with Ibrahimovic, he broke into the left side of the penalty area and kicked the goal, but Neuer saved the baseline.

Real Madrid saw hope and launched an almost desperate counterattack.

But in the 76th minute, Messi, who had been dormant for the whole game and had no temper at all after being "targeted" by Ashley Cole, suddenly showed his strength.

After receiving the ball from Kaká on the right side of the center line, the Argentine turned around and got rid of Ashley Cole, dribbling the ball along the right rib.

On the outside of Real Madrid's penalty area, facing Vidic who was retreating in place, Messi first made a fake move of making an emergency stop and cutting inside. After deceiving Vidic's center of gravity, he suddenly threw away the Serbian central defender and passed the ball with his left foot. The right side broke into the penalty area.

After breaking through Vidic, Messi calmly volleyed with his right foot and knocked on Real Madrid's goal again.

3 is better than 1!

A hammer!
If, when the score was 1-2, Real Madrid still saw hope and had the desire to counterattack, then now, Atletico Madrid scores again, which has severely damaged Real Madrid's morale and fighting spirit.

In the end, Atletico defeated Real Madrid 3-1 with goals from Torres, Iniesta and Messi.

Valencia was also in this round, beating Sevilla 1-0 at home.

As a result, Atletico Madrid counterattacked Real Madrid and climbed to the top, followed by Valencia, ranking second in La Liga.

Currently, the two teams have the same points, both with 76 points.

……

After the 29th round of La Liga, the league was temporarily suspended and ushered in two weeks of national team match days.

Spain has two European Cup qualifiers to play this time.

First against the Czech Republic at home, and then against Lithuania away from home.

By the way, this is also Yang Hao's first national team game after being knighted.

Therefore, the home game against the Czech Republic was specially arranged at the Emirates Stadium in Madrid, and a brief ceremony was carefully prepared for Yang Hao before the game, which was regarded as an official celebration for Yang Hao.

As for the Spanish national team this time, Yang Hao did not make many adjustments.

At best, players like Cazorla and Navas who have performed very well in La Liga this season have returned to the national team again.

But there is an obvious signal, that is, Puyol was not selected.

The Barcelona captain was not selected for this national team despite having no injuries and being in reasonably good condition.

This attracted a lot of attention from the media and fans.

In this regard, Yang Hao also gave a special explanation, that is, Puyol has suffered a lot of injuries this season and his condition has not adjusted.

On the contrary, it is like Pique, who performed very well at Villarreal.

In addition, Arbeloa also performed very well in Deportivo. Yang Hao said that the door to the national team is not completely closed to veterans. He only selects the most suitable players based on their status and performance.

Puyol also agreed with this and promised that he would adjust his condition as soon as possible and strive to return to the national team.

Long before the list was announced, Yang Hao had actually communicated with Puyol privately.

Everyone can see that it is difficult for the 32-year-old Barcelona captain to play a leading role in the national team like before.

In fact, it is very likely that he will not be able to enter the national team again.

As a central defender, Puyol is only 1 meters tall and short. He has the figure of a typical Spanish defender. This puts him at a disadvantage in terms of physical strength confrontation.

Due to his physical disadvantage, Puyol often has to adopt a more risky defensive strategy, such as small movements, fierce defensive movements, and fierce dives.

Many fans will feel that this defender is unstable when they see these defensive actions.

As everyone knows, their bodies are at a disadvantage. How can they hold on without relying on these?
If you look carefully, you will find that all short defenders are basically like this, including Cannavaro, who was as stable as an old dog later, and they were all incredibly fierce in the early stage.

In addition to these, Puyol actually has another magic weapon, which is his speed and ability to recover.

This allows Puyol to retreat even if he presses very far forward.

But there is a natural and irreversible flaw in this style of play.

That is, as you get older, your body functions begin to age, your speed declines, and your ability to catch up becomes weaker and weaker, then Puyol's point will be particularly obvious.

This is why Mourinho insisted on tapping Vidic and later spent a lot of money to sign Miranda.

Yang Hao also considered this aspect, so Puyol was not called up for this national team training session.

But he gave Puyol enough face, not only leaving a way out for him, but also giving him a good explanation.

Especially before the game, Yang Hao personally called him to communicate with him.

Therefore, Puyol didn't say anything this time. He just stated that he would try his best to improve his condition and wait for Yang Hao's call-up at any time.

It’s just that anyone with a discerning eye can see that Puyol’s era in Spain’s defense is over!
In the next two national team games, Yang Hao is working on the team's defense.

In the game against the Czech Republic, he arranged for Pique and Pepe to partner, but he conceded a goal first in the game. Later, Villa scored twice, helping the team reverse the Czech Republic 2-1 at home.

When they challenged Lithuania away from home, with the team leading 3-0, the combination of Ramos and Pique also made mistakes, resulting in the team eventually winning 3-1.

Conceding goals in both games, Yang Hao was still a little dissatisfied with the defense.

But the benefits of planning Pepe back then began to emerge.

The reason why Yang Hao insisted on using Pique in the two games was more because he was inspecting Pique.

Because in his mind, Ramos and Pepe are the best central defender combination in Spain now.

He hopes to use this combination to once again achieve surprising results in the 2012 European Cup and 2014 World Cup.

……

After two weeks of national team games, La Liga reignited the flames of war and ushered in the 30th round of La Liga.

Before this round of the league, something unpleasant happened.

That is, Kaka was injured in Brazil's away friendly match against Scotland and returned to Atletico Madrid.

This is the second warm-up match arranged by Brazil in the two weeks of national team match days. Brazilian internationals such as Adriano and Kaká all started and played the entire game.

They are currently the most attractive players in the Brazilian national team.

In addition, Messi also played the entire game in Argentina's two friendly matches against the United States and Costa Rica.

Although he was not injured, Yang Hao was very dissatisfied.

This is simply outrageous!
In a friendly match, Messi traveled a long way back to Argentina, then to the United States and Costa Rica, and played the entire game?
Yang Hao became more and more dissatisfied with the behavior of the two national teams of Brazil and Argentina.

For the appearance fee of the friendly match, they really used the players to death. It didn't matter to them anyway, it was just a friendly match.

If he was really injured, he would just go back to the club to recuperate. What does it have to do with their national team?
The most outrageous thing is the Argentine Football Association.

Brazil's friendly matches are relatively restrained. March is the national team match day mandated by FIFA. They arranged two matches, and then in early June, they also arranged two matches.

What about Argentina?

Do you know how outrageous the fax they sent Yang Hao was?
别人都是安排在国家队比赛日，结果他们3月16日安排一场，踢委内瑞拉；3月27日再安排一场，客场踢美国；3月29日到哥斯达黎加再踢一场。

They actually sent a fax to Atletico Madrid before, hoping that the team would let Messi go back to participate in the game on March 3.

Can Yang Hao agree?
Okay, forget about March.

Play against Ecuador on April 4st.

Play against Paraguay on May 5th.

Play against Nigeria on June 6st.

Play against Poland on June 6th.

Play against Albania on June 6th.

When Yang Hao saw this series of warm-up match arrangements, he was confused.

He really wanted to send him a fax, but the staff of the Argentine Football Association on the other side of the ocean found him and asked: Are you crazy about money?

When Yang Hao questioned their arrangement, the explanation given was that there was the America's Cup this year.

Yang Hao had the urge to scold his mother.

Yes, labor and management know there is an America's Cup.

The war started in early July.

But the question is, you have arranged such intensive warm-up matches in March, April, May and June. What does that mean?
Also, since you have to train and prepare before the America's Cup, shouldn't you arrange the warm-up matches appropriately?
After the game starts on June 6, there are still more than ten days until the America's Cup. Is it reasonable to arrange the warm-up matches like this?

Do you really think that labor and management don’t understand football?

Finally, Yang Hao gave a very clear reply to the Argentine Football Association. Atletico Madrid would never let him go during training camps in April and May.

Not only will Messi not let go, Di Maria will not go either.

As a result, the Argentine Football Association called and said that on May 5, La Liga had been suspended.

Yang Hao was so angry that he cursed on the phone and then told the other party, "We will reach the Champions League final!"

Then, he hung up the phone.

The Champions League final will be held on May 5.

When Yang Hao mentioned this matter to Messi, Kaká and others, they all looked helpless.

Especially Messi.

In fact, his situation is quite difficult.

After arriving in Spain early, Argentine fans were very unfamiliar with him, which led to them having very strong opinions on Messi.

Especially after the team failed to win the World Cup, Messi's performance was sluggish, which put him under more pressure and more criticism.

The Argentines even scolded him at every turn and told him to go back to Spain.

Because of this, it is difficult for Messi to refuse Argentina's call-up. Once he refuses, he doesn't know how many fans will be angered.

It is precisely because of this that the Argentine Football Association always uses this to tease Messi and ask him to participate in warm-up matches.

Why?

Because in the contract signed by the Argentine Football Association, whether Messi plays or not, those are two different prices.

Therefore, when they signed friendly match contracts with others, they almost caught Messi and took advantage of him.

It can almost be said that there will be no fight.

The most outrageous thing is that Messi is fighting for his country and he won't get a penny.

Even if you don't perform well, you will be scolded.

To a certain extent, Yang Hao helped him sternly refuse the call-up to the national team this time, which was a good thing for Messi.

Yang Hao has been involved in world football for so many years and has dealt with many football associations, large and small.

To a certain extent, the football association in his home country is actually pretty good.

But this result made him very uncomfortable.

……

Round 30 of La Liga.

Real Madrid unexpectedly suffered an upset 0-1 at home and lost to Sporting Gijon.

Wenger's team also suffered from the large number of international players, especially the fact that many international players participated in the European Cup qualifiers, which greatly affected Real Madrid's overall strength.

Moreover, next Wednesday is the first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals, and Wenger must make a certain choice between the league and the Champions League.

In the end, Wenger chose the Champions League.

Valencia reversed Getafe 4-2 away from home. Robin van Persie scored four goals and performed very eye-catchingly.

Barcelona drew 0-0 away from Villarreal.

Yang Hao also played as a substitute and rotation lineup in this round.

Even because Atletico Madrid has many international players on the bench, the team has to increase its rotation.

As a result, the team drew 1-1 with Osasuna away from home.

Atletico Madrid conceded a penalty kick in the 80th minute.

But there is no way, if it's flat, it's flat.

After this battle, Valencia counterattacked Atletico Madrid to reach the top.

……

On the evening of April 4, Valencia’s Etihad Stadium.

In the first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals, Atletico Madrid challenged Valencia away.

This was a dull game, not Spanish at all.

Valencia, playing at home, behaved conservatively against the menacing Atletico Madrid.

Ancelotti obviously did not want to lose the ball at home, so he adopted a defensive counterattack tactic, hoping to contain Atletico Madrid's offense.

Especially before, Atletico Madrid's international players were not in ideal condition due to the national team competition.

This created an opportunity for Valencia.

Before the game, Ancelotti shouted that he would recreate the counterattack scene in the Champions League and send Atletico Madrid out.

Obviously, once again ascending to the throne of La Liga leader, Ancelotti is full of confidence.

But having said that, Ancelotti still put in a lot of effort in targeted tactics, especially the arrangement of Atletico Madrid's frontcourt attackers, which put the stars of the Sheetmen Army under huge defensive pressure.

The strangulation and confrontation in the midfield prevented Atletico Madrid from effectively controlling the ball. The game was frequently interrupted by Valencia, preventing smooth organization and offense.

The two sharpest wings of the Sheets Army were contained.

As soon as Alves and Evra got the ball, Juan Mata and Nani harassed them.

Kaka was absent due to injury, so Yang Hao arranged for Modric to partner Iniesta in the midfield. However, it was difficult for the two players to effectively break through in the face of the double midfielder strangulation of De Rossi and Lucas Leiva. .

This brought the game to a deadlock.

The side cannot open up the situation, and the center is contained.

Even Messi is clearly out of shape.

In the entire first half, Atletico Madrid only kicked 6 shots, and 1 shot was on target. This shows how successful Valencia's defense against Atletico Madrid was.

But the Bat Corps also paid a price.

They only had 2 shots in the entire first half, and 0 shots were on target.

Yang Hao is very aware of Ancelotti's strategy.

He just wants to defend the home court. Even if it is 0-0, they have the advantage.

When they get to Madrid in the second round, they will try to score.

Ancelotti's calculations were very loud and his execution was very resolute.

After changing sides in the second half and fighting again, they still unswervingly implemented this set of tactics.

If Alves was greatly affected by his participation in the Brazilian national team, then Evra, who has always been very stable, was very depressed by Nani's harassment in this game, and his condition was also greatly affected.

This stalemate continued until the 70th minute of the second half.

Yang Hao decisively made a substitution adjustment.

Suarez replaced Adriano who was in poor condition.

Before the Uruguayan forward came on the field, Yang Hao called him to his side, hoping that he could give full play to his advantages in speed, flexibility, technology and shooting skills to provide more help to Atletico Madrid's striker.

It would be best to help Messi!

In the 75th minute, Yang Hao made his second substitution.

Hazard replaced David Silva.

The Belgian winger still plays on the left.

The task Yang Hao gave him was to attack Rafinha's side on the left, preferably by dribbling and breaking through to open up the situation.

Just 1 minute after Hazard came on the field, the Belgian received a direct pass from Evra on the left. Facing Rafinha's defense, he deftly broke through and successfully shook off Lafite. Niya dribbled the ball diagonally into the penalty area and passed it across to the feet of Suarez in the penalty area.

The Uruguayan striker stopped the ball and passed Lucio, then quickly hit the goal.

Cech reacted very quickly, fell to the ground and dove sideways, saving Suarez's shot, which barely resolved a scoring crisis.

But at the critical moment, Messi suddenly rushed in, got ahead of Marchena and Antonio Lopez, and sent the ball into the unguarded goal, 1-0!

"The ball went in!!!"

"In the 76th minute, Atletico Madrid finally knocked on Valencia's goal!"

"The two players who just came on as substitutes performed magically in the frontcourt attack!"

"We saw that Yang Hao's magical substitution worked again!"

"After Hazard broke through Rafinha, he passed the ball to Suarez."

"The way Suarez stopped the ball and passed Lucio was really beautiful. His body was so flexible and it was completely beyond Lucio's expectations."

"Subsequently, Suarez also shot from a tricky angle, but Cech showed great courage and saved the ball."

"Messi then arrived and opened the scoring for Atletico Madrid!"

"Yang Hao's two substitutions are really important and crucial!"

"Although it was Messi who scored the goal, we saw that Hazard launched an attack from the left as soon as he came on the field. After Suarez came on the field, he was very thoughtful and skillful in the few times he took the ball and played with it. Excellent.”

"This is Yang Hao!"

"The world's top coaches are able to use their subtle substitutions at critical moments to change the situation on the court."

"Hazard came on for just one minute and created a wonderful goal for Atletico Madrid."

"Valencia held on for 76 minutes, but finally couldn't hold on!"

……

After conceding a goal, Valencia was obviously a little panicked.

The players of the Bat Legion wanted to try to counterattack.

Ancelotti could not accept the result of being defeated by Atletico Madrid at home, so he made continuous substitutions and pressed out to attack.

Yang Hao knew very well that Atletico Madrid's condition was not ideal and they did not have much advantage when facing Valencia away from home.

Therefore, he decisively chose to stabilize his defense and then look for offensive opportunities to counterattack.

In the 87th minute, after Atletico Madrid stole the ball in the backcourt, Modric sent a cross pass outside the penalty area and passed the ball to the unguarded Evra on the left.

Nani, who was originally marking Evra, was still in Atletico Madrid's penalty area.

After Evra stopped the ball, he immediately rushed forward along the left side.

Hazard, Suarez and Messi in front are all moving forward quickly, and Iniesta in the middle is also running forward and can meet Evra at any time.

Evra, who had not performed very well throughout the game, showed his strength at the last critical moment. When he advanced from the left, he had a simple one-two with Hazard and then broke into the penalty area. From the left, kick and cross.

The ball quickly crossed more than half of the penalty area and landed on the right side of the front edge of the small penalty area, just in the gap between Lucio and Marchena.

Suarez, who quickly intervened, quickly ran to this position, met Evra's cross, and headed the ball directly.

The ball was headed into the right side of Valencia's goal by Suarez.

Cech made an instinctive save and although he also touched the ball, he was unable to prevent it from entering the net.

The Czech goalkeeper could only watch as the goal he was guarding was breached by Atletico Madrid for the second time.

Suarez turned around and ran away excitedly, running all the way to celebrate.

After coming on as a substitute, he performed a pass and a shot, fully demonstrating his strength and characteristics.

I believe that after tonight, the media and fans around the world will get to know him again.

Luis Suarez!
