If they play in the Yanchai League, it would be a long journey. Playing in the domestic league is like the Champions League.

Real Madrid had a full lineup in this game, with a combination of Ronaldo, Benzema and Bale on the front line.

Of course, Bale plays on the right side. In fact, he is most powerful on the left side, but there is Ronaldo on that side, so he can only step down and let others do the work.

Once upon a time, Benítez wanted to replace Ronaldo with Bale, but he left in the end.

Facts have proved that Ronaldo is still stronger than Bale.

In the midfield, Modric and Li Chulei are still unable to play, and the other candidate is Toni Kroos.

Toni Kroos came from the Bayern Munich youth training. When he just came out, he was teased by fans. His name is a combination of two football superstars, one is Italian Toni, and the other is German air tyrant Kroos.

However, Toni Kroos, whose name is taken from the two forwards, is an absolute midfield master.

In the pre-match training, Toni Kroos, Li Chu and Modric formed a very good chemical reaction.

Zidane was most assured to arrange such a midfield.

On the defensive line, Ramos and Varane were paired on the left and right, and Marcelo and Carvajal were the protectors on both sides. In theory, Real Madrid has arranged the best lineup.

On the other hand, Atletico Madrid did not have any personnel injuries, and also played with a complete lineup, so that this game was more interesting.

The Civitas Metropolitan Stadium was full.

The game had not started yet, and the gunpowder smell was very strong.

With the referee's whistle, Ronaldo just pushed the ball to Benzema, and the Atletico Madrid players rushed over like crazy at a sprint speed.

Full-court press!

Simeone is used to using this method to grab the start. At the beginning of the game, all the players will press on to grab the football frantically.

Benzema quickly passed the ball.

After Toni Kroos got the ball, he didn't even have time to look at it before he quickly passed it forward, because Griezmann was already sprinting towards him.

After Ronaldo received the ball, he saw Koke rushing towards him, so he prepared to do a signature V-shaped pull to pass Koke.

Unexpectedly, he did pull the ball over, but the man didn't pass. Koke kicked Ronaldo's supporting foot and knocked him down.

This is Simeone's philosophy, either leave the ball or leave the man.

The referee whistled a foul, but because the incident happened near the center circle, this place was too far away from the dangerous area, and it was not clear that Real Madrid's attack would be dangerous, so Koke didn't get a yellow card, and there was not even a verbal warning.

After all, this is Atletico Madrid's home stadium, the Metropolitan Arena.

A little bit, there will still be a home advantage.

Seeing that the referee didn't even give a yellow card, Ronaldo spread his hands in dissatisfaction and muttered.

Atletico Madrid fans were cursing Ronaldo loudly in the stands.

"Get up quickly, you sissy, you fell down when you were hit! You can't even help me up!"

Li Chu really felt the difference of this city derby. Although it was a national derby with Barcelona, ​​the competitive level was higher, but it was not likely to happen.

Real Madrid organized an attack again after a short pass from the set-piece, but facing the full-strength pressing, the Real Madrid captain was a little bit unable to adapt for a while.

Modric was knocked down by Gabi when he passed the ball.

Ramos, who was the captain on the field, also did not receive a yellow card warning from the referee. He went to argue with the referee. The referee told Ramos that this was a football game and it was normal to have some collisions.

Li Chu and his teammates gradually figured out the referee's penalty standards.

So, give them what they deserve.

When Atletico Madrid grabbed the ball and started to organize an attack, the Real Madrid players would not indulge them, as if everyone would not commit a foul.

As a result, in the first 10 minutes on the field, the two teams started a physical fight, which was not like two top football teams playing a game, but like two wild football teams playing a game.

However, Li Chu noticed that if it was just a physical fight in the midfield, Atletico Madrid would undoubtedly have the advantage. Among their three midfielders, Gabi, Koke and Saul, Saul was slightly less tough, and the other two were absolutely tough guys.

Real Madrid midfielders Modric and Toni Kroos were both technical midfielders, and they had no physical advantage in a head-on fight with them.

If they continued to fight like this,, but lost their own strengths. Simeone hopes to use this method to pull the opponent down and fight hand-to-hand with them, so as to win the game with his rich hand-to-hand experience.

This kind of thing is not a tactical adjustment by the head coach, but everyone has to make changes on the field.

"Luka, we should pass the ball a little bit forward, so that they won't dare to be so reckless in the offensive area of ​​the field!"

Modric also understood Li Chu's words after listening to him. In fact, he had already discovered this point. Helpless, now that the game has just started, Atletico Madrid's physical strength is very abundant, and 10 people on the field have run out of the effect of 13 people.

Every Real Madrid player will face the pressing and harassment of at least two Atletico Madrid players when holding the ball and attacking.

In this case, there are only two ways. One is to use the backcourt pass to consume the physical strength of Atletico Madrid players. After their physical strength decreases, they can no longer use this particularly physical consumption of kicking.

Another way is to try to hit the ball into the dangerous area, so that the players of Atletico Madrid will have to think twice even if they commit a foul, because the penalties for fouling in an insignificant area and a foul in a dangerous area are completely different.

Before this, Modric had also returned the ball to the back line to pass the ball back, but Mandzukic's steal gave Griezmann an opportunity, and the Frenchman almost scored the first goal in one fell swoop.

This also made Modric feel scared and dared not try again.

In fact, it can be seen that Atletico Madrid's pressing has been planned as a whole, very organized, and every time it is pressed by all players, without omission, so that you can't find a connection point if you want to pass the ball smoothly in the backcourt.

At this time, Li Chu's proposal is quite in line with Modric's appetite.

There is only one way to crack this kind of full-court pressing style, that is, to pass the ball with one foot, after all, no matter how fast a person runs, he can't pass the ball faster.
