All-around center

"Oh?"

Mourinho was also surprised when he saw the change in Barcelona's lineup.

He thought Vilanova was an imitator of Guardiola's tactics, but he didn't expect that he would make some effective tactical changes.

Moreover, this tactical change is really interesting.

The defense line shrinks, increasing the defensive toughness!

With both wings flying together, Messi and Iniesta, two breakthrough players, will constantly cause trouble for Real Madrid's defense line on both sides.

The central axis of Xavi + Pedro is stable enough!

Xavi's position is forward, which can better transfer forward or vertically and pass the ball.

Putting control in Real Madrid's half, forcing them to enter a low-position pressing mode, further reducing the pressure on the defense line.

It can be said that this double defensive midfielder change is very exciting!

Mourinho couldn't find a good way for a while, mainly because he didn't think Barcelona would play double defensive midfielders at all.

Therefore, he decided to observe and see!

In the stadium, Real Madrid also immediately retracted the defense line.

Barcelona's change of formation caught them off guard, and for safety's sake, they took the initiative to retreat to defend.

After all, they were leading by one goal at the moment, and they had the energy to make some observations.

"Be careful of Xavi's pass and turn!"

Suker reminded Kroos.

Xavi's most exquisite ability in his peak period was his handling of the ball in the crowd.

Through one or two passes, he can handle the ball cleanly in the crowd, and help himself and his teammates create a favorable position while controlling the rhythm. At the same time, when he is in a forward position, he has a more sharp ability to pass the ball forward.

The shorter the distance, the greater the threat of Xavi's pass!

This is a master-level through-ball midfielder!

Real Madrid must be careful to deal with it.

Soon, the game started again.

In 60 minutes, Barcelona is currently 1:2 behind Real Madrid.

After the change of formation, Barcelona took out a double defensive midfielder formation, and let Xavi appear in a more dangerous position, with Messi and Iniesta as the two wings.

After the game started, the changes immediately appeared.

With his experience and ability, Xavi can handle the ball steadily in the crowd.

With the help of Alexander Song, Busquets will not be so passive.

Busquets' task has become simpler. In addition to defense, it is to pass the ball to Xavi.

Xavi decides the passing line and the direction of attack according to the situation.

As for the advancement, Iniesta and Messi are still responsible.

However, Real Madrid still has to guard against Xavi's pass.

For this reason, Real Madrid is slightly passive.

On the one hand, Messi and Iniesta are constantly pulling on both sides, pulling the direction of Real Madrid apart.

After the defense line is pulled apart, Real Madrid must immediately retreat and retract the defense line to prevent Xavi from taking advantage of this opportunity to suddenly pass the ball and find Pedro.

Casemiro sticks to Xavi.

But Xavi still plays with ease.

After unloading the defensive task and attacking full-time, Xavi's performance on the offensive end is even better.

"It's a bit tricky!"

Mourinho frowned slightly as he watched the changes in the field.

Messi and Iniesta are also constantly moving inwards and moving in the rib area.

This creates opportunities for Barcelona's two full-backs to overlap.

Whether it is Alves or Alba, they are good at forward attacking.

Previously, they were suppressed by Real Madrid's counterattack, and Busquets, who was the single defensive midfielder, also made them dare not attack easily.

But now, with two defensive midfielders, they have also been liberated.

It must be said that Vilanova's change of formation has indeed helped this tactically rigid Barcelona to regain vitality.

Mourinho also thought about resolving troubles through high-pressure pressing.

But high-pressure pressing must rely on a strong back line and the limiting role of the back midfielder.

At present, the back line of Real Madrid is not as efficient as last season.

Casemiro, who is in the back midfielder position, has not yet fully entered the state and needs some training.

Therefore, Real Madrid can only play passively.

On the other hand, Barcelona uses continuous one-foot passes to continuously create threats.

Its ability to advance forward has recovered, threatening Real Madrid's goal again and again.

"Left! Block it!"

"He's going to cut inside!"

"Ramos! Help!"

"Here I come!"

Real Madrid's defense line was continuously mobilized.

It was as if an invisible big hand was constantly pulling and deforming it to both sides. When it reached the limit, the Real Madrid players immediately retreated.

Xavi was staring at the middle!

Once there was too much space, Xavi was definitely capable of passing a wonderful through ball!

"Steady! Steady!"

Goalkeeper Adan was also anxious.

Seeing the defense line being constantly involved, he was also anxious in his heart.

"Substitution!"

Mourinho frowned; "Let Marcelo and Coentrao prepare to play!"

He was ready to stack defenders!

In the 68th minute, Real Madrid made substitutions.

Benzema and Di Maria left the field.

Marcelo and Coentrao came on as substitutes.

Mourinho left Casemiro and Kroos in the midfield, which guaranteed some interception ability and played a buffering role.

At the same time, use Kroos's pass to lead the counterattack.

Even if Kroos is targeted, they still have Srna.

On the front line, it is naturally Su Ke and Bell's fast horse combination.

This not only ensures defense, but also has sufficient counterattack capabilities.

But the rhythm in the midfield was completely deprived by Barcelona.

Mourinho must admit that he thought the rookie Bilavano gave him a blow in the head!

"Being more and more passive!"

Su Ke frowned and had a bad premonition. He warned aloud, "Don't give them room to stuff the ball!"

Real Madrid did the same, and they would not give Xavi a chance to attack easily.

Time passed little by little.

Barcelona controlled the situation while slowly testing.

Finally, in the 78th minute, Harvey caught the opportunity.

Taking advantage of the slippage of Casemiro's feet, Xavier turned around and knocked the ball horizontally. He immediately knocked it to Messi, and at the same time he sprinted diagonally to follow up.

Messi received the ball and instead of breaking through along the wing, he diverted the ball and sprinted laterally.

The continuous shifts in offensive direction caused some confusion in Real Madrid's defense.

Suddenly, Messi stepped on the spot and ran sideways alone.

The ball that was stopped was followed up by Xavi who advanced forward and suddenly moved forward. With just this pass, Xavi passed the ball directly through Real Madrid's defense.

"Oh!!! Crossover! Harvey! Chance!"

Gonzalez yelled, looking nervously toward the court.

Xavi swept the ball towards the goal, and Pedro followed up and hit the goal.

boom!

The ball hit Real Madrid goalkeeper Adan's chest and bounced out.

"Wonderful save!" As soon as Gonzalez finished speaking, he saw Messi appearing where the ball landed: "Danger! Messi! One point!"

Facing the falling ball, Messi calmly pushed the ball.

The ball passed over the legs of Ramos, who was blocked from the side, and went into the lower left corner of the goal.

Nearing the 80th minute, Barcelona relied on a change of formation to change their offensive ideas and state, and once again blasted Real Madrid's goal and equalized the score.

Especially the cooperation of Messi, Xavi and Pedro, the three of them tore apart Real Madrid's defense.

Watching the ball hit the net, Su Ke couldn't help but shake his head: "It's really a ghost!"

Barcelona is like that!

Every time he thought he was completely suppressed, this guy suddenly started showing up and posing a threat.

This double midfielder tactic has obviously been practiced by Barcelona.

It should be intended to be used in the Champions League, or used in key games.

But I didn't expect to be forced out by Real Madrid in the seventh round of the league.

However, this can be considered a good thing!

At the very least, they forced out Barcelona's secret tactics and had enough time to study them.

Phew~~~~~

Mourinho sighed: "Keep the score!"

He had to admit that he was fished by Vilanova.

After this tactic, Barcelona did not exert any force, giving Real Madrid the illusion that it could hold on.

When Mourinho strengthened his defense, he suddenly exerted his strength. With continuous attacks, he finally scored a goal.

At this time, Mourinho only had one substitution left in his hands and was unable to make large-scale tactical changes.

The situation and the rhythm are on Barcelona's side.

Of course, they will continue to try to counterattack, but it may be that Suker and Bell were fouled continuously, hindering their counterattack.

Barcelona took advantage of this and continued to press forward.

Soon, Mourinho's idea was realized.

This also means that Vilanova had this idea and he set a trap for Mourinho.

Mourinho did look down upon Vilanova.

Unexpectedly, a double midfielder was created, disrupting their rhythm.

However, fortunately, Real Madrid managed to hold on to the remaining time and fixed the score at 2:2.

They got a draw on the road and forced Barcelona to expose their tactics.

Make some money and lose some!

"The game is over. It was a wonderful tactical confrontation. Vilanova's sudden change of formation allowed Barcelona to get rid of the previous bad situation. It not only stabilized the situation, but also equalized the score. Although they failed to win in the end, It can be regarded as maintaining the honor of the home court! "

"Real Madrid did not adapt to Barcelona's sudden changes, but next time, Real Madrid will definitely be prepared. Barcelona's crisis still exists!"

“In the third round of the 2012/2013 La Liga season, Barcelona drew with Real Madrid at home! They still failed to win, but through this game, we also saw what Barcelona’s new head coach Vilanova brought to the team. We look forward to their better performance in the future.”

"Okay! Guys, it's time for us to say goodbye!"

In the stadium, players from both sides returned to the locker room.

Suker and Messi were pestered by the media.

A Catalan reporter asked Messi about the change of formation.

"We have practiced this tactic at the beginning of the season, but we did not expect to use it so soon. In terms of effect, it is still very good. Of course, this tactic has not been perfected yet and needs some adjustments. More There’s so much content I can’t say!”

After Messi finished speaking, he left immediately.

On the other side, Suk was also asked the same question.

Suker: "It is indeed a bit surprising. After all, Barcelona has been using Busquets' single midfielder tactics, and the sudden change of formation is a bit unfamiliar to us. In this situation, we adopted conservative defensive tactics. Facts have proved that, This is not a good idea!"

"Of course, I'm not questioning the coach. Normal people would make the same choice when encountering this situation. They would want to defend and observe. After all, we were already one goal ahead."

"The result is still acceptable, but next time we will play better."

"As for my own performance, I am still quite satisfied, but there is still room for improvement."

After saying that, Su Ke left immediately.

In the locker room, the players were not frustrated either.

The draw in the away game can be regarded as achieving the goal.

However, the coaching staff has their work cut out for them again.

Of course, if Mourinho is irresponsible, he can ignore it.

After all, he is leaving in the winter window and will obviously not be able to participate in the next round.

But Mourinho didn't do that.

After they returned to the training base, Mourinho immediately organized a summary meeting.

On the one hand, it summarizes the problems of the game.

On the other hand, study Barcelona’s new tactics.

Most of the team is accustomed to this, but Suker and Ramos are the ones who know that Mourinho is about to leave.

Especially Ramos, he has great opinions on Mourinho.

But this time, he also admired Mourinho very much.

After all, he could just ignore it, and he would be gone in the next round.

But he did not turn a blind eye and still faithfully performed his duties as head coach.

In this way, even if Mourinho leaves, they will have more reference tactics when they face Barcelona in the next round.

"That's it for today. The in-depth tactics will be drilled after thorough study by the coaching staff."

Mourinho dismissed the players, but he led the coaching staff to continue the meeting.

The players left one after another.

After a hard game, they were also hungry and tired, and were ready to go back and have a good rest.

When Suk walked out of the tactics room, he found Ramos standing in the corridor with a dazed look.

"What's wrong?"

Suk asked, patting Ramos on the shoulder.

Ramos came back to his senses and sighed; "It's a little strange! I always thought Mourinho was a complete bastard, but today, his dedicated attitude changed my mind."

Su Ke smiled; "He was not a bastard to begin with, but we had conflicts based on our own positions and interests."

Ramos nodded and then sighed: "He is indeed a very charming head coach. It would be even better if he didn't suppress us."

Suk shook his head; "It's too late to say this."

"Yeah! It's too late!" Ramos turned around: "Who will be the next head coach?"

Suk shrugged: "How do I know!"

Ramos; "Is there anything else you don't know?"

Ramos believes that Suker is Real Madrid's know-it-all. In front of him, Real Madrid seems to have no secrets.

"I really don't know. I only received news that after the winter break, Ledep will put out the fire and Zidane will serve as assistant coach!"

Ramos then nodded; "Mr. Ledepp resigned as the second team coach. It turns out that he is going to be the first team coach!"

"Excessive coaching." Su Ke shrugged: "When the new coach candidate is confirmed, he will become the youth training director."

After a pause, Suk asked; "Have you met Igor recently?"

Casillas rarely appears anymore.

Even if he comes to participate in training, he comes and goes in a hurry and is unwilling to stay at the club longer.

I guess I don’t want to see Mourinho.

There were even times when this guy skipped training.

Mourinho didn't say anything, but instead angered Florentino, who was pulled over and scolded.

From this point of view, Casillas is really seeking death.

No matter what happens, you can’t miss training!

Florentino is most concerned about the personal status of his players. If there is any cancer in the team, he will immediately remove it.

Casillas is not a cancer, but he is doing cancerous things now.

Absence from training is a very serious matter.

Listening to Suk's words, Ramos shook his head; "I haven't seen it."

After that, Ramos left, obviously not wanting to continue talking about Casillas.

Su Ke didn't care, turned around and went back to the locker room to pack his package and left.

As soon as he arrived at the villa, Suk saw Zolanqi hurriedly going out.

"Why are you going?"

Suk asked immediately.

Zolanqi saw Su Ke and immediately pulled him up; "It's just in time. Let's go together. I'll tell you on the way!"

Zoranci drove the vehicle to the Royal Hospital of Spain.

It turned out to be AC ​​Milan chairman, Berlusconi's condition worsened and he was preparing for surgery.

His chief surgeon worked at the Royal Hospital of Spain, and he went to Spain for medical treatment for better surgical quality.

In the high-end ward, Berlusconi was lying on the bed with a ventilator hanging on his nose, his face was haggard, and he was extremely thin.

Looking at Suk in front of him, Berlusconi showed a weak smile and said: "Seeing you, this old guy like me almost cried."

He took a few breaths: "I thought of the passionate years when we were in Milan!"

Berlusconi's cheeks were a little flushed, and he was obviously very excited and proud.

"Who wouldn't be scared in Milan at that time?"

Suker: "Don't talk yet, take a few more breaths of oxygen!"

"I'm not going to die yet!" Berlusconi scolded with a smile.

Suker smiled; "I'm in a good mood to joke, I'm in good shape!"

"It's much worse than before." Berlusconi shook his head and said; "By the way, congratulations on becoming a father. I've seen the photo of that child, and he looks exactly like you."

"Thank you!" Suker smiled and thanked.

"I'm living well here?" Berlusconi asked.

Suker shrugged.

"Have you ever thought about coming back?"

Suker; "Hurry up and take some oxygen, you're starting to talk nonsense!"

"I'm serious!" Berlusconi suddenly said; "If you want, I'll pay the penalty!"

Suker was silent for a moment and shook his head slowly.

Berlusconi also sighed.

He knew this was the answer!

When people get old and sick, they always want to redeem some regrets!

If it was possible at the beginning, he really didn't want to send Suker away.

"Don't be impulsive!" Suk said slowly; "This is not a transfer issue, there are many other things involved. Besides, even if you pay 500 million, Milan will be investigated by UEFA! Boss, we can't be impulsive!"
