Step by Step to Win

After the weekend’s game, the media’s predictions for the Champions League semi-finals are also being further fermented. ＠, x. Whether it is the classic match that people predict that Bayern will play against Real Madrid, or the desperate entanglement of Atletico Madrid against Wolfsburg, at this time, it is equally exciting. The Champions League final is just around the corner. Who is the one who can advance to the final victory? Regarding this, people have different predictions.

Among the many comments, Atletico is still the most questioned one. Whether it was the ethics of the game exposed by the red card or the physical problems of defensive mistakes in the final stage, they put them under a lot of pressure in the days before the game.

However, this kind of pressure may be a heavy burden for other teams, but for Atletico Madrid, they have been used to being violent, and they have never cared about it for a long time. Until the game really arrived and the moment they stood on the court, Atletico Madrid players did not experience any psychological pressure because they were criticized by the media too much. In their view, being accused by the media is nothing but a fairly normal thing. As long as they can win, it doesn't matter what the accusation is.

Pepe of Real Madrid was also known as a martial artist, but as long as Real Madrid is strong enough, who can say that he is not?

In the eyes of Atletico Madrid players, fouling is not a big deal. In contrast, their team has physical problems, which seems to be a more troublesome thing. They were physically weak in the two-line battle, and the team that met Magath at this time was really helpless. However, in the first round of the game, Atletico had the upper hand. With an advantage in hand, in the second round of the contest, who can have the upper hand is a matter of two things.

The physical strength of Wolf Fort is not false. But Atletico Madrid dominated the score. In this game, Atletico Madrid as long as the draw is good, so they can choose to defend and counterattack. And if they really play, their physical exertion shouldn't be great, at least facing the astonishing weak attack of Wolfsburg, it lasted 90 minutes. It doesn't seem to be difficult at all.

Atletico Madrid players all think so, but no one thought that in the second game against Wolfsburg, the Wolfsburg players gave them a good start at the beginning of the game.

In the last game, the Wolfsburg players seemed to be mainly defensive during 90 minutes. And their play at the time. Atletico Madrid players also believe that this team's offensive ability is quite poor. However, after returning to the home court, Wolfsburg has completely played a different level.

To everyone's surprise, Atletico Madrid did not wait for the final arrival of the game at home. In less than five minutes, they had already begun their offense. After getting the ball in the backcourt, Shaheen passed the ball to Rodriguez with a kick. Wolfsburg's counterattack began immediately.

Since the last game, Wolfsburg has seen Atletico's crazy anti-grab. In front of their anti-grab ability. Shaheen hardly has much ability to organize an offense, which is also an important reason why Wolfsburg has not been able to launch a smooth ground attack. In this game, Shaheen obviously learned his lesson. After getting the ball, he no longer sticks to the ball and no longer seeks to attack in the middle. Instead, pass the ball immediately, which is the best proof.

The football reached Rodriguez's feet, Rodriguez was on the wing, and immediately launched an attack. Along the wing, he rushed across the center line with great speed. however. After all, Atletico's defense is not a joke. When Rodriguez hit, Atletico's players had already run over. Just after passing the penalty area, Rodriguez had already penetrated their defensive encirclement.

Atletico's defense is absolutely outstanding, especially in this game they want to focus on defense, which gives them a lot of experience in this area. However, even so, Atletico still has some miscalculations: when Rodriguez crossed the center line, Perisic had also retreated to near the center line at this time, where he met his teammates.

Rodriguez, who rushed up, slowed down with the ball at his feet, and seemed to be ready to give the ball to Perisic. However, when Atletico Madrid's defense line changed, he spiked again and passed Juan Fran's. Defense. However, the Atletico Madrid players have not yet come to make a replacement, Rodriguez has made another choice, before the replacement player arrived, he passed the ball to Perisic.

In the last game, Wolfsburg's offense did not have too many wing retracements. Perisic has always been very good at inserting the edge of the penalty area, and no one thought that he would withdraw so deeply. Wolfsburg’s offense has made more adjustments in this game, and such adjustments have posed a threat to Atletico from the beginning of the game.

Perisic, who got the ball, passed the ball forward. At this time, Turan, who had run to the center, received the ball and straightened the ball with his heel and sent it to the foot of Gao Shunyao in front of the penalty area. Standing at the forefront of the penalty area, Gao Shunyao did not hesitate to take a long shot and blasted towards the goal!

Compared with the last game, Wolfsburg has retraced more, has more ground coordination, and their offense is more decisive.

Gao Shunyao's shot flew towards the lower left corner of the goal, but Courtois in front of the goal also stretched out his arm at this time, trying to stop his attack.

I have to say that Courtois is indeed a very good goalkeeper. Gao Shunyao kicked out the football very fast and the angle was very tricky. Even the football kicked out, Godin in front of him has not reacted yet. However, Courtois in front of the goal did not relax at this time because of Godin's defense. When Gao Shunyao's football flew out, he also jumped up, whether it was reaction speed or shooting. He has done a very good job of predicting.

It is also because of the serious attitude of the game that although the ball is fast, Courtois still stretched out his right hand very well and blocked the football route. His extended hand blocked the football flying towards the goal in time and blocked the ball from the bottom line.

The long-awaited shot was ultimately unsuccessful. The interception of this shot also caused a sigh to erupt from the entire stadium. And listening to the sighs of the surrounding fans, Courtois's mouth was filled with a proud smile. Being able to intercept the opponent's shot is the most proud thing for a goalkeeper.

However, after smiling, he saw Wolfsburg players running towards the corner kick. Courtois' smile gradually disappeared, and his brows were already frowned. The players of Wolfsburg ran very fast, without much discussion or hesitation. This also made Courtois see that the opponent's offense did not seem to be a momentary effort, but was fully prepared and planned.

In this situation, I have to say something unexpected: At least Atletico Madrid did not think that Wolfsburg's offense would come at the beginning of the game. Before this game, Atletico Madrid had exposed its physical problems in the game against Valencia. In this game, Atletico Madrid is an away game, and the physical strength would have been even more exhausted. In Atletico Madrid, the possible approach for Wolfsburg should also be to continue to defend well at the beginning of the game and defend the halftime without losing.

After halftime, when Atletico Madrid's physical strength dropped, they began to counterattack, using the most violent offensive to break Atletico’s no longer solid defense. This approach is the smartest and most suitable for the previous game of Wolfsburg. The idea of ​​keeping the ball conservative.

However, in this game, Wolfsburg played obviously different from the previous one. And this difference also made Courtois a little puzzled: He clearly has a clear advantage but does not take advantage of it. What does Wolfsburg want to do in this way? Without waiting for the final stage of the game to use physical strength to gain the upper hand, it must be anxious to attack now, why does Wolfsburg want to do this?

Are they not afraid of Atletico Madrid's quick counterattack? They are now behind with a big score of 0-1, and if Atletico Madrid fights back successfully, the hope of victory is extremely slim. If Atletico can get a 2-0 lead and score an away goal, Wolfsburg will have to score 3 goals to win, and such a thing is simply impossible.

The choice of Wolfsburg seems to be a bit too stupid. Atletico Madrid will suffer a big loss as long as they choose to attack ~www.ltnovel.com~ Wolfsburg-such an idea, Courtois has already had. The opponent's brain seems to be broken, which also makes him feel that Atletico's victory is in sight.

However, thinking of this, Courtois also immediately thought of another thing: launching a counterattack now, Atletico Madrid is indeed possible to score a goal, thus ending the game early. However, if Atletico can't score a goal, then maybe they will consume their energy prematurely, making the situation of physical exhaustion in the game come sooner, it seems to be in trouble.

Attacking is not the first choice of Atletico Madrid's tactics, not only because of the advantages of points, but also because of their own weaknesses, and what Wolfsburg has to do now seems to deliberately want to guide Atletico to expose their weaknesses. Wolfsburg is not a group of fools, otherwise they would not be able to reach the Champions League semi-finals. So, in this game, did they deliberately want to guide Atletico Madrid to attack, causing Atletico Madrid to waste their physical strength, so that in the game, they finally ushered in a rout?

Perhaps this kind of trick trap is the real intention of Wolfsburg-then, as the more dominant side, should Atletico Madrid attack or continue to defend?

This seems to be a rather difficult choice. (To be continued.)
