87 With the surname Gao, do you still want a face? 【Kneeling
Some media once made a statistical analysis of the scores of the five major European leagues and came to an interesting conclusion.
In the five major leagues in the past few years, the most common score was 1-0.
In other words, only one goal is scored in a football match.
The proportion accounts for almost more than 25%.
The second most common score is one to one, which is about 15%.
The next step is two to one, which is almost fifteen percent.
After that are two-to-zero and zero-to-zero, ranking fourth and fifth respectively, with a ratio of about 8 to 10 percent.
I believe everyone will be surprised when they first see this data, because it deviates so much from their own impressions.
But that's the truth.
There is a kind of selective memory in fans' impressions, and they will naturally be more impressed by games with larger scores.
Fernando Lucas once specially compiled a piece of data, one of which is of great interest to many fans, that is, in the memories of many fans, Real Madrid played the best offensive football in the 2002-03 season.
In the thirty-eight rounds of the league, 86 goals were scored and 42 goals were conceded.
Leaving aside the defensive statistics, let’s talk about the number of goals scored.
In the thirty-eight games, Real Madrid failed to score in six games and only scored one goal in nine games.
Two goals were scored in six games, three goals were scored in seven games, four goals were scored in six games, and five goals were scored in four games.
Among them, there were ten games in which the opponent was kept clean, and among these ten games, three goals or more were scored in only two games.
There were 17 games in which more than three goals were scored, and apart from these two clean sheets, there were 15 games in which the team conceded goals, many of which conceded two or even three goals.
Note that this is recognized by everyone around the world as the 2002-2003 season when Real Madrid was at its peak in recent years, with the most superstars in the best form.
Fernando Lucas compiled this data with a very simple purpose. He wanted to comfort Gao Shen so that he would not have to worry too much about outside opinions. One-to-zeroism is actually a normal phenomenon for normal teams.
Combined with the media's questionnaire and the data of Fernando Lucas, we can actually give an intuitive outline, that is, scoring a goal on the football field is actually very, very difficult.
Even to a certain extent, scoring a goal means victory!
This situation will only become more obvious in the Champions League knockout rounds where the top players have a strong dialogue and have the highest technical and tactical levels.
Why didn't Gao Shen dare to attack when he visited Turin in the first round?
Isn’t it great to score away goals?
No, it's very fragrant, very fragrant.
However, he didn't dare and couldn't.
If they fail to score an away goal and are instead scored by Juventus, given Real Madrid's current situation, this will basically be the fate of being eliminated.
Conservative?
A bit conservative indeed.
But when the team has no way to ensure both defense and offense, Gao Shen can only choose defense.
If the conservative hat can help Real Madrid win the championship, then Gao Shen won't mind wearing it.
Back at the Bernabeu, the first thing Gao Shen had to consider when arranging tactics was not to allow Juventus to score.
If Juventus scores one goal, Real Madrid must score two goals.
Therefore, Gao Shen seemed aggressive at the beginning, but in fact he was seeking stability, and then seized Juventus' weak point and scored a goal.
Then what?
Gao Shen began to signal, and the team continued to hold on.
Juventus was also very interesting. After losing the ball, they tried to counterattack for a while, but were quickly pushed back by Capello.
The reason is also very simple, Capello does not dare to take risks easily.
He was afraid that Real Madrid would further expand the score.
After Real Madrid scored, Juventus only needed to score one goal to tie the total score, and then rely on away goals to reverse the situation. However, if Juventus's offense led to a leak in the defense, Real Madrid would seize the opportunity and make a sneak attack.
If they score a goal, they will be even more desperate.
Therefore, in the last twenty minutes of the first half, the game was still deadlocked.
Juventus have not shown any aggressive ambitions.

“Well done everyone!”
As soon as he entered the locker room, Gao Shen applauded his players vigorously.
Everyone looked quite excited, but they were also out of breath.
Although the game may seem boring, it is very intense and the players are very exhausted.
Gao Shen's eyes swept across the eleven players in the locker room. He kept nodding and showed his appreciative eyes without hesitation. This was the reward they deserved.
"Everyone, I can't guess what kind of tactics Juventus will adopt in the second half. Will Capello attack after the opening? Or will he make adjustments through substitutions and then use force? But I can be sure that the situation in the second half will be better than before.
The first half was more difficult."
"Everyone has felt how strong Juventus is, but I am here to tell you very proudly that tonight, at the Bernabeu, you will eliminate this strong team and you will prove it with a victory.
They are stronger and better!"
When every player heard this, they all raised their heads and stared at Gao Shen.
They were still panting and looking tired, but they were all full of fighting spirit.
After knocking out Juventus, they reached the semi-finals of the Champions League.
"Next, every minute of the second half will be a very difficult test for us. Whether it is an individual or a team, whether it is technology, tactics, body or willpower, it is the most difficult challenge. I believe that you have all done it.
If you are mentally prepared, you will definitely be able to withstand this test."
Gao Shen's eyes showed incomparable determination and confidence. He clenched his fists hard and "stared" at the players fiercely.
"Believe me, everyone, as long as you grit your teeth and persevere, we will definitely be able to advance!"
Without this goal in the first half, many players might still have doubts and even lack of confidence.
But now, Gao Shen said that Real Madrid will definitely be able to score goals when they return to the Bernabeu. As a result, they really scored.
Now, Gao Shen said that if you persist, you will win, and they all believe it!
…
Putting aside the individual abilities, characteristics and lineup of the players, Juventus' biggest problem lies in their tactics.
442 parallel stance.
Why does Nedved have to move from left midfielder to attacking midfielder position?
Because there is no one in the middle.
From the perspective of court space, the four lines of 4231 are more efficient in utilizing space than the 442 parallel positions. This has been confirmed by Valencia and Benitez.
Benitez took a step further from Ranieri and Cooper's 4-4-2 formation and came up with a 4-2-3 formation, which helped Valencia win the La Liga championship and helped Liverpool create the great miracle in Istanbul.
After two rounds of competition, Gao Shen had enough confidence in Real Madrid's tactics.
But he didn't dare to be careless, because accidents are everywhere on the court.
Therefore, during the halftime break, he emphasized the most on the players' mistakes and how to avoid them as much as possible.
Especially the kind of involuntary mistakes caused by huge physical exertion.
…
"After the second half begins, we must pay close attention to the players' physical performance."
After seeing off the players, Gao Shen called Lucas and Buenaventura over and gave them a thousand warnings.
Lucas can obtain the latest real-time data of the game, including the running distance of the players, etc., while Buenaventura needs to use these data to analyze the current physical condition of the players and provide suggestions for advanced substitutions and decision-making.
.
Both of them knew that this was crucial to the outcome of the game.
"Why not Ronaldo?" Lucas asked curiously.
Ronaldo is in the squad tonight and will definitely come on as a substitute, but why doesn't Gao Shen let him come on?
Gao Shen looked at his friend, smiled, and asked: "Why do you think the Sword of Damocles is so intimidating?"
Lucas showed a thoughtful look, while Buenaventura nodded with some understanding.
"Because you don't know when it will fall." Gao Shen answered proactively.
The whole world knows that Ronaldo will definitely play and is Gao Shen's most important defensive counterattack weapon.
But the profoundness is hidden and not used.
Why was Rijkaard so criticized by Cruyff?
Because he took the lead in making adjustments, Gao Shen counterattacked.
As long as Gao Shen doesn't take out Ronaldo, Capello will be at a loss whether to make substitutions or adjustments.
Of course, Ronaldo must play, but it takes time.
Time is on Real Madrid's side and the score is leading again. Gao Shen just wants to see how Capello will make a move.
Buenaventura watched Gao Shen leave, and then looked at Fernando Lucas, who had only half-understood what he heard. He couldn't help but feel funny, and couldn't help but reach out and pat Lucas on the shoulder.
"You are still too honest."
Lucas scratched the back of his head in confusion.
Honesty? Isn’t that bad?
…………
…………
At the beginning of the second half, Capello did not rush to attack in a hurry, but organized the attack in an orderly manner.
Real Madrid continued to adopt defensive counterattack tactics, shrinking in their own half and allowing Juventus to take the initiative to press out.
The Bianconeri were obviously quite wary of Real Madrid's counterattack, especially Negredo's pressure and interference on the back line, which greatly restricted Juventus' backcourt.
Real Madrid's players are becoming more and more familiar with Gao Shen's four-two-three-one style of play, and their defensive organization is getting better and better. In addition, Juventus is not good at penetrating and cooperating on the ground, so it is difficult to launch the offense and can only pass through frequently.
Long pass to Trezeguet and Ibrahimovic.
These two centers have a high ball advantage, but everyone knows that in Real Madrid's tight defensive formation, the efficiency of this high ball attack is actually very low.
Capello finally lost his composure and replaced Trezeguet with Sarayeta in the 58th minute.
This is a matchup substitution.
Trezeguet was closely monitored in these two rounds and did not show his due strength.
Gao Shen remained unmoved and continued to hold on.
After Sarayeta came on as a substitute, he performed very actively, but did not cause too much damage to Real Madrid's defense.
The reason is not surprising, the Juventus midfielder cannot pass the ball.
Especially after Nedved did not dare to run to the center and pass the ball easily, Ibrahimovic frequently retreated to catch the ball. However, the Swedish center was too sticky and had an impatient temper. Under Real Madrid's strictness,
It's difficult to create a threat when you're on guard.
The Champions League soft-footed shrimp definitely deserves its reputation!
Therefore, Juventus could only take the high ball.
When the game time was about to reach 70 minutes, Capello saw that the situation on the field was still not improving. He finally lost his composure and asked Gabbiati to ask Mutu to warm up.
As for Real Madrid, after Gao Shen saw Mutu warming up, he immediately asked Maqueda to inform Ronaldo to warm up.
This immediately made Capello furious in front of the visiting team's coaching bench.
Damn, if I don’t change people, you won’t change. If I want to change people, you will change too.
