Chapter 887: Take the opponent's path, leaving the opponent nowhere to go

After Real Madrid took the lead, some surprisingly, Zidane did not let the team pursue the victory, but quickly recovered and played a defensive counterattack.

This scene surprised many people and wondered why Zidane did it.

Because in their opinion, Real Madrid, who has just scored a goal, is in good spirits and the players are in good condition. Shouldn't it be time to use the lead to strengthen the offensive and strive to score another goal in a short time?

Even if you can’t score, it’s not Real Madrid’s style to shrink the defense after you lead...

But Real Madrid did just that.

Not only did they shrink their defense, they also gave up possession.

Simply waiting for Atletico Madrid to attack.

Atletico Madrid had just lost the ball, originally wanted to stabilize the defense first, withstand the impact from Real Madrid.

As a result, the game was played for a few more minutes before they realized that Real Madrid really didn't come up easily.

At first they worried that this was a trap used by Real Madrid to lure the enemy into deep, enticing them to attack, and then slammed them up and hit them by surprise.

So he tentatively attacked several times and found that Real Madrid really set up the bus...

At this time Atletico Madrid attacked with confidence.

Only after attacking did they realize that the situation was not as good as they thought.

Simone's team has a habit of choosing to give up control of the ball and concentrate on playing defensive counterattacks when playing strong teams.

In the match against Barcelona and Bayern Munich, their ball control basically did not exceed 40%.

It was originally the practice of Atletico Madrid to give up control of the strong team, so when playing Real Madrid, they also intend to give up control of the ball and play a defensive counterattack.

The thought of giving up possession now allowed Real Madrid to learn, and Real Madrid also played a defensive counterattack. This forced Atletico Madrid to have to fight for position.

But this is not what they are good at.

Because Atlético de Madrid’s player configuration and tactical habits are all solid defenses and then counterattacks, their offenses are more forward and rarely fall back and forth in the midfield and backcourt,

Atlético Madrid's two winged offenses are sharp, and this is reflected in this. Two of their four players in the midfield are full-time defensive midfielders. The offense mainly relies on two wingers and two strikers.

Gao Zheng sometimes occasionally came to pass the passer to help his teammates. But after all, he is not a professional to do this. His biggest threat is to shoot. If you let him pull out to organize an attack, it is overkill and outrageous.

Apart from him, neither Gretzman, Cork, or Saur are good at organizing offensives.

So when they faced the copper wall and iron wall put up by Real Madrid, it was inevitable that they were somewhat handcuffed and did not know what to do.

In many cases, their offense can't even put the football into Real Madrid's penalty area. After a horizontal pass, they can only choose a long shot.

However, under the interference of Real Madrid players, the long-range shot is very low.

Gao Zheng was closely guarded by Real Madrid in this game, and he basically could not catch the ball smoothly.

Even if he doesn’t take the ball, Real Madrid players will follow him, sometimes Ramos, sometimes Pepe, if he withdraws to the midfield, then Casemiro and Cross will appear in him Around.

One purpose is to prevent him from handling the ball easily.

Everyone knows that Gao Zheng is Atletico Madrid's most threatening player. As long as he can contain him, Atletico Madrid's offense loses its threat.

In fact, it is also true that when Gao Zheng is surrounded by Real Madrid players, Atletico Madrid's offense is difficult to improve.

Griezmann sings his hand, and Cork and Saur do nothing.

Gao Zheng scored twice in the penalty area of ​​Real Madrid throughout the first half.

For him, this is arguably the lowest career.

How could Gao Zheng, who only took the ball twice in the penalty area, threaten Real Madrid's goal?

Atletico Madrid has a possession rate, but it cannot be transformed into a threatening offense. The possession rate is of no use to them.

It's no wonder that Simone is very disdainful of the Barcelona set... this is not suitable for his team at all.

When the referee Krattenberg blew the whistle at the end of the first half of the game, a burst of cheers erupted from the Meazza San Siro stadium. The cheers came from Real Madrid fans.

Although only one goal ahead of Atletico Madrid in the first half, Real Madrid fans are still very happy.

Especially after watching the game after the lead, everyone can see that Atletico Madrid has no way to get Real Madrid.

This gives Real Madrid fans confidence in the team.

Before, they complained about whether Zidane was too timid in the stands. They only played one contract to lead the contraction defense. Knowing that a one-ball lead is the most dangerous score in the world.

But now they are persuaded to align Xuanzong, and feel that although they do not understand, the effect is really amazing.

Give up possession of the ball and let Atletico Madrid besiege their goals, but Atletico Madrid are at a loss with Real Madrid's defense...

This really took the road of Atletico Madrid, leaving Atletico Madrid nowhere to go.

Zidane is really a genius!

In the locker room at halftime, Simone first comforted his players and told them not to be frustrated by falling behind. After all, they only missed one ball and still had a chance.

Next he began to adjust tactically.

Obviously, his team was tactically targeted by the opponent.

Zidane was able to make Real Madrid, a team that dissolves offensive blood, put it on the bus, which was indeed unexpected by Simone before the game.

Fortunately, the tactics can be adjusted during the intermission.

He substituted forward Carrasco for the midfielder Augusto Fernandez.

Cork withdrew and hit the lower back to partner with Gabi, while Carrasco took up Cork's original position.

It looks like the 442 formation, but then Simeone asked the players to adjust their positions when attacking.

Cork went forward, came to the front waistline, Gao Zheng retreated to the middle, leaving Gleizman alone at the front.

In this way, Atlético Madrid's formation has become 4141, Gabi as a single midfielder.

But since there were four Atletico Madrid players before the single midfielder, the midfielder's control has not weakened.

Simone made such adjustments naturally in order to match Zidane's bus tactics.

It has been said before that Gao Zheng possesses a certain offensive ability.

His retracement can help the team sort out the offense and organize a threatening offensive.

At the same time, putting a combination of four people behind Gretzman can also tear Real Madrid's offensive and continue to send Gretzman shells.

After all, in the first half, in the face of Real Madrid's defense, Atletico Madrid lacked manpower in the frontcourt. Both Cork and Saúl are on the sidelines. If Gabi and Fernandes are allowed to win, then The space behind him may be used by the BBC combination. Realize that Real Madrid has masters like Tony Cross and Modric.

Now that the problem has been solved, Saúl and Carrasco continue to impact Real Madrid’s two sides on the sidelines, while Gao Zheng and Cork directly threaten the Real Madrid line of defense on the middle.

This is equivalent to two more points, which increases the difficulty of Real Madrid's defense.

After finishing the tactics, Simone finally cheered the players: "You have to believe yourself, our average age is younger than Real Madrid, we are younger than them, everyone can run one kilometer longer than them, that adds up to running ten more Kilometers! If there is such a gap, the victory can only belong to us. So as long as we can drag Real Madrid like this, their physical fitness will be exhausted sooner or later, and then it will be our chance, so be patient and don’t worry Don’t panic! Remember, which team is better for victory!"

Running is something Simone has always emphasized. He believes that in modern football, running is the most important quality. A player can be technically rough and conscious, but he can't run and he doesn't want to run.

This is why the classical front waist, which used to stand and played football often, can often send second passes in this era is becoming scarce, so that it has basically disappeared completely.

A team that can't move will be dragged down by a team that can run better.
