1180 Only he can save the team!

After a tie once again, the game was once again at a deadlock.

Atletico Madrid began to defend more closely, especially in the fifth midfielder, and the three-midfielder configuration blocked the front of the penalty area, making it difficult for Real Madrid to easily pass into the penalty area to create a threat.

Real Madrid also realized this problem, so Ancelotti replaced Marcelo and planned to open the situation through the wings and let the wings fly again, with Yang Yang and Suarez picking up the spot in the penalty area.

Juan Fran, Miranda, Godin and Felipe, this can be said to be the strongest defense line in Europe in the past year, with a low conceding rate and every player performed very well. In addition, there are five midfielders in front, whether it is Cork or Raul Garcia, they are players with strong tactical execution, making it difficult for Real Madrid to create a threat on the wing.

There are many crosses on the side, but none of them can accurately create threats.

In terms of defense, Atletico Madrid is second this season, and probably no one dares to recognize first.

Especially in the 75th minute, Yang Yang suddenly appeared on the right, retreated and stole Atletico's pass, he turned around and drove the ball forward, quickly dribbled past Felipe and Godin, cut inside to the front of the penalty area and shot.

In the left and right attack between Miranda and Godin, Yang Yang's shot failed to hit the ball and was steadily blocked by Courtois, but Simeone realized the danger and immediately made a substitution.

Belgian defender Aldevelde from Ajax replaced Felipe, who consumed a lot of physical fitness. At this point, Atletico Madrid used up his three substitutions in this game.

Alderweireld plays as a central defender, has excellent defensive ability and good physical condition. His speed and turn are not as good as Felipe, but now Atletico Madrid is shrinking its defense. Simeone lets him go, which is clearly because he wants to strengthen his defense.

It can be said that by this time, Simeone had already lined up all the defensive players who could rank up.

Ancelotti also made a substitution in the 80th minute and showed his determination.

Isco replaced Mascherano.

In this way, Real Madrid's midfielder does not even have real defensive players, all of which are offensive, and only Modric has certain defensive abilities, but this also reflects Real Madrid's determination.

That is to continue attacking!

Atletico Madrid's weapon is defense, while Real Madrid's weapon is attack.

Both sides have formulated tactics and adjustments that are most in line with their own characteristics.

…………

…………

Yang Yang ran quickly on the court.

He must gain some space by constantly running, thereby increasing the possibility of getting the ball.

Atletico Madrid's defense is very tight, even suffocating.

Even if Real Madrid has arranged the double striker of Yang Yang and Suarez, they still feel very depressed in front of Atletico Madrid's defense, and it is difficult to get opportunities. There are people everywhere, there are many small moves, and they are frequently violated. Everyone looks like a ferocious spirit like a wolf or a tiger, as if they want to eat people.

In this case, when Real Madrid's ball is difficult to pass in, it is difficult for both Yang Yang and Suarez to create a threat.

There are many balls on both wings, but there is no real threat.

This is the problem.

Yang Yang saw this problem, but there was no way.

Whether it is height or strength, he and Suarez have no advantage in front of Atletico Madrid's defender. If there is a ball under their feet, they can still create a threat, but if there is no ball under their feet, they have no other way, so they can only run non-stop.

Only by running can you have a chance. If you don’t run, you won’t even have a chance.

But even if you are willing to run, it is quite depressing, especially after 80 minutes, everyone's physical fitness is consumed greatly, which is also a great test for the players' mental will.

Suarez came in half, and he was starting to be unable to bear it, let alone Yang Yang who played the whole game.

But I still have to run, continue running, and keep running until I run out of the opportunity.

And no one knows when, where, and in what way it will appear.

…………

…………

After eighty minutes of entering, the atmosphere of the Light Stadium became very tragic.

Even the fans in the stands lost the passion for the first half, and were obviously infected by the atmosphere of the game on the court.

Isco, the Real Madrid player who had high hopes for playing, appeared on the left as soon as he came up. Ancelotti had high hopes for him, took the ball again and again, and tried to break through again and again, but he fell to the ground again and again.

In just four minutes, he fell to the ground three times, and finally got so angry that he slapped the ground and roared at the invading Atletico Madrid player Raul Garcia, but was blocked by Yang Yang who arrived in time.

"I feel that Real Madrid players are still a little anxious now."

"From the current situation, it is very likely that both sides will enter overtime in a draw, which will be an overtime match or even a penalty shootout that has not been seen in the Champions League in many years."

"This will also make the result of the game more elusive and predictable. Both sides should have been mentally prepared for this aspect before the game. Ancelotti and Simeone both practiced penalty kicks respectively, which shows that they have all thought about this situation."

"The most important thing now is the players. You must continue to be calm and never get angry or make mistakes."

"After Isco came on the court, he still couldn't open the situation, and Real Madrid seemed to have no choice."

Ancelotti has used up all three substitutions, and Simeone has also used up. Neither has any other choice. Whether it is to have overtime or a penalty kick next, it can only rely on the players on the court.

This is no longer a competition between the head coach’s technical and tactical level, but a competition between players on the field.

Even to a certain extent, in this game, in addition to Yang Yang's free kick, Atletico Madrid almost perfectly frozen Real Madrid's attack, and Real Madrid also did not give Atletico Madrid any chance in this game. The only goal conceded was Casillas' own mistake.

"This game reminds me a little bit of the Champions League final in the 2003 season, AC Milan's match against Juventus. The result was a dull zero to zero, but the tactical qualities of the two teams and the arrangement of the game are both valuable."

"The same is true tonight. The only difference is that both Madrid players each scored a goal, and the next thing depends on whether the results of the game will be similar to the one that eleven years ago."

…………

"Don't worry, even if we enter overtime, we still have an advantage." Bardano said with great certainty.

Florentino's face was full of worry, and nodded repeatedly after hearing this, but he was still worried.

Once you enter overtime, who dares to say that you can get a steadily advantage?

The 90-minute game is amazing to the players' physical energy consumption. Once it is overtime, it is really not a competition of tactics and techniques, but a competition of willpower between the two sides.

Who is so sure?

"Jorge, what do you think we can break an iron barrel formation like Atletico?" Florentino asked distressedly, "Which players do we need to introduce?"

After hearing this, Bardano shook his head with a wry smile, not knowing how to answer.

Breaking the iron barrel array is a problem for the whole world.

Not to mention facing an iron barrel formation composed of world-class defenders like Atletico Madrid, even an iron barrel formation composed of a newly promoted La Liga team can often make Real Madrid and Barcelona capsize in the gutter. This is a big problem that the whole world is worried about.

Even to some extent, there is no answer.

Which team can say that they are confident of breaking the iron barrel formation?

Barcelona, ​​which claims to have amazing control, will lose at the feet of Hercules, Hercules, the newly promoted La Liga player, let alone others.

Perhaps Florentino himself realized this and did not continue to pursue this issue. Instead, he looked at the stadium with concern, and finally his eyes fell on Yang Yang.

He knew that Yang Yang had done enough, good enough. Without him, Real Madrid was still behind.

But he still couldn't help but want to send more hope to Yang Yang, and I believe that all Real Madrid fans are the same.

Because now, only Yang Yang can stand up and save the team.

…………

…………

When the time came 85 minutes, Simeone's face became more and more serious.

Even when a Real Madrid attack failed to work, he walked straight to the sidelines and signaled that Cork and Raul Garcia would come back a little more, especially when Carvajal and Marcelo stepped forward, they must follow closely.

Not only that, Simeone also focused on the names of Miranda and Godin.

"Stay Yang Yang to death and get stuck with him!" Simeone did not hide her intention to fight.

Obviously, the more he reached the last moment of the game, the more he knew Yang Yang's threat.

If he wants to drag the game into overtime and into a penalty shootout, he must block Yang Yang.

Miranda and Godin began to attack left and right, pressing against Yang Yang without leaving any steps, while Alderweireld tightly wrapped around Suarez, which made both Real Madrid strikers in pain and could not run out of the gap.

At the same time, Atletico Madrid is also actively using its midfield advantage to curb Real Madrid's back-end insertion. Whether it is Isco, David Silva or Modric, they are obviously helpless in this situation.

So, on the court, you can see that Real Madrid repeatedly kicked the ball from the wing and tried to pass into the penalty area, but they returned empty-handed and were disappointed again and again.

But Yang Yang still actively runs his position every time, and does his best to find and fight for opportunities every time.

This made Real Madrid players on the court still believe that the game is not over yet and the team still has hope. Atletico Madrid is facing a big enemy and walking on thin ice, for fear that Yang Yang will accidentally create a threat.

On the one hand, the fans in the stands and in front of the TV were helpless and admired Atletico Madrid's tenacious defense, but also felt sorry for Yang Yang and Real Madrid because they encountered a tough bone like Atletico Madrid.

Any team, including Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​will play very hard when they meet Atletico Madrid.

Especially when the time is getting less and less, everyone gradually believes that this game should be played overtime.

But only Yang Yang, as long as the whistle didn't sound at the end of the game, he continued to run.
Chapter completed!
