Chapter 137 The Berlin Olympic Stadium Witnesses Flying Immortals!(1/3)
Chapter 137: Witnessing the Fairy God at the Berlin Olympic Stadium!!!!
When Xiao Wen walked out of the players' tunnel and looked at Berlin's slightly gray sky again, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Although this final is far less tense than the first time last year, last year's lineup included Lewandowski, Reus, and Hummels.
Wang Defa!
For a moment, he suddenly thought, is this a mistake? Why is this lineup missing more wild spots than last year?
But after all, I have an armband wrapped around my arm now, so it still feels different.
In the past few weeks, he rejected Mendes' attempts to talk to him about a transfer several times because he knew that every team was interested in him. Although it was a bit crazy to say this, he was now a seller.
market!
So, let this market be a little more crazy today!
The process comes to the coin tossing stage.
Chakir is smiling.
Choose a side and choose who will kick off first.
At this time, the fans in the stands had already begun to make noise.
Xiao Wen shook hands with Iniesta, exchanged team flags and then walked towards the brothers who were going to fight together in this game.
"Oh, our captain is here..."
Griezmann, who was joking with Koke, saw the captain coming back and asked Xiao with a smile: "How is it? It's my first official captaincy in such an important game..."
The atmosphere in the Atletico Madrid team is pretty good, at least there is no dissatisfaction with Xiao Wen, nothing else, they are all spoiled.
"snort……"
Xiao Wen's voice sounded low among the young men gathered in a circle: "How many of us are going to lose before the fight even starts... these bad pen experts! Guys! Let us slap them in the face again! Last year we
We lost! But we have to win this year!”
Juan Fran and others who participated in last year's final were almost scared to death. Damn it! What do you mean we lost last year? Atletico Madrid lost last year. Who did it lose to? Wasn't it just a guy like you?
After saying that, Xiao Wen was stunned for a moment. There seemed to be something wrong with the expression.
"Well, in short, this year we are going to defeat Barcelona in the last round of La Liga last year. If we can bear the pressure and give them a blow, we can definitely do it this year..."
Xiao Wen touched his face and couldn't help but laugh.
"Xiao, you, the captain, don't have enough experience!"
Griezmann breaks down.
Xiao Wen kicked away Griezmann who was trying hard to get closer to him.
Everyone put their arms around each other again, and the atmosphere suddenly became serious.
"Do you have confidence!?"
"have!"
"Kill Barcelona!"
"Kill Barcelona!"
…
In the other half, the same scene goes on.
Players from both sides quickly dispersed and formed their formations.
"Huh?"
Lineker in the stands was a little surprised: "Messi seems to be still communicating with Iniesta. Both of them looked serious. Okay, Messi also walked to the right.
In this game, Barcelona still uses a 4-3-3 formation.
The goalkeeper is Marc-Andre ter Stegen, who replaced Bravo with his outstanding performance this season."
Saying that, Lineker smiled maliciously again, "This time, Ter Stegen and Xiao Wen are enemies and are extremely jealous when they meet."
Gary Neville on the side also laughed: "That shocking lob brought Xiao Wen into the attention of the fans. Let's see if the duel between these two people in the next game will be another one."
What classic scene happened?"
Lineker continued to introduce Barcelona's lineup: "The right back Alves Pique and Mascherano are still their solid center back combination, and the left back Enrique chose Alba.
The three midfield combination is also very stable, Rakitic, Busquets and Iniesta.
The MSN combination of Messi, Suarez and Neymar needs no introduction."
Gary Neville looked at the data page and said, "Enrique played with all the main players. This game made Iniesta the first Barcelona player to participate in the Champions League finals 4 times! He represented Barcelona in 549 official games, which is the same as Mi
Gurli is tied for third place, second only to Xavi and Puyol. And Messi, he will strive to become the first person to score in three Champions League finals!"
The conversation changed, "Atletico Madrid must avoid becoming the embarrassing record holder of being the runner-up in the finals for two consecutive years, while Xiao Wen strives to win consecutive championships!"
Whistle.
Barcelona kicks off first.
Although Barcelona now does not emphasize completely controlling the ball at their feet as it did in previous years, they still use delicate footwork and tacit cooperation to conduct the ball in the backcourt and midfield.
Xiao Wen looked back at his slightly nervous teammates and noticed that many of them were breathing heavily and had nervous expressions. He couldn't help but feel a little heavier.
In the last two months of La Liga, Atletico Madrid and he himself withstood the test of cruel and super-intensive games. Many people got a lot of playing opportunities, and after the experience of guys like Jimenez who had little chance at the beginning of the season,
, the psychological quality has improved a lot.
Even so, nervousness still affected their movements.
In the third minute, Jimenez faced a pass from Iniesta and directly hit Messi with a header!
Gift crab!
Koke desperately chased back, and with his help, the busy Jimenez and Alderweireld were not passed by Messi, and they were able to interfere with him at the last moment of his kick.
Let Oblak make the key save.
Xiao Wen ran back a few steps and loudly reminded Jimenez to stop being so nervous. Damn it, I was younger last year and didn't have to urinate so much! If the sky is falling, there will be a tall person holding it up, why are you panicking?
?
However, after this mistake, Jimenez and Alderweireld were so frightened that even Oblak refused to pass the ball to them.
Xiao Wen couldn't help but sigh. This time, Atletico Madrid's few opportunities to control the ball in the backcourt were basically cut off, and they could only move forward with every kick.
The problem is that neither he nor Griezmann are good at competing for the top spot.
In a vicious cycle of being unable to compete for the ball in the frontcourt, losing control in the midfield, and only causing damage in the backcourt, Atletico Madrid's ball possession rate is simply appalling!
Xiao Wen couldn't help but slowly retreated a little.
This season, not only other teams are studying Atletico Madrid, but also Xiao Wen. Atletico Madrid is also studying the changes in Barcelona.
No one can beat the passage of time. By this year, Barcelona's personnel suitable for passing and controlling tactics have entered the later stages of their careers, and their technical and tactical abilities have plummeted. It seems that they can no longer meet the needs of Barcelona's traditional passing and controlling tactics.
Iniesta is 30 years old, and Xavi, the core of Barcelona's passing control in the past, is already 34 years old!
Xiao Wen squinted and looked at the bench. It can be said that this man, who is also not outstanding in stature, is the representative and core figure of Barcelona's control of football!
During Xavi's peak period, Barcelona and the Spanish dynasty also reached their peak, and as Xavi's ability gradually declined, Barcelona inevitably entered a period of decline.
Therefore, Xiao Wen smiled as he looked at Neymar and Suarez who were constantly running between each other. The bold changes made by Enrique seemed to be effective - adding counterattack tactics to the passing and controlling, and adhering to the traditional style.
At the same time, it also takes into account the quick counterattack style!
In the past, Barcelona's passing and controlling tactics were completely based on passing and controlling tactics. During Guardiola's period, it was even rumored that he mandated that the ball should not be at the feet of each player for more than 3 seconds before the ball was released quickly, tearing apart the opponent's defense through rapid transmission, and passing the ball in.
Opponent's door
This is a typical passing control of Barcelona during its peak period!
But now, times have changed.
In the defense, center backs Mascherano and Pique partner. Both of them have the ability to shoot the ball, especially Mascherano. He can use short passes to resolve the crisis caused by the crazy pressure of Atletico Madrid!
In terms of defense, Pique has the ability to protect high points, and Mascherano has the speed to recover. The two complement each other well.
What frightens Xiao Wen the most is that Barcelona's two full-backs Alba and Alves are in a rare peak overlap period this season. The two can go up and down, attack, retreat and defend!
No matter how you look at it, this is a team of historical level, and they are all teams that can compete with those teams Guan Gong and Qin Qiong that have gone down in history.
passive!
Extremely passive!
In the 8th minute, Simeone anxiously called Xiao Wen to the sidelines.
"We can't go on like this. You have to hold the ball more!" Simeone pursed his dry lips, forced a smile, and expressed his thoughts.
In fact, Barcelona has already gained a comprehensive advantage on the field. Although after reaching Atletico Madrid's backcourt, the two sides are still fighting fiercely. But if this continues, coupled with the two rookie central defenders who are temporary partners, it will only be a matter of time before the collapse.
Therefore, Atletico Madrid must control it.
The only one who can do this is Xiao Wen.
To be continued...
