983 Breaking the Bar?a goal with Bar?a's specialty
"Welcome back to Sky Sports."
The camera of the studio moves from far to near, with the host and commentators all sitting upright in suits and leather shoes.
The person in charge of commentating this game today is former Real Madrid star Santiago Solari.
He played for Real Madrid from 2000 to 2005, during which time he won a Champions League. Moreover, he comes from a football family. His father and uncle are both Argentinian internationals. His brother-in-law is the former Real Madrid legendary star Redondo.
In January 2011, Solari officially announced his retirement and soon returned to Spain and applied for a Spanish coaching training course.
Now, he is participating in coaching training and serving as a commentator on TV stations.
This is also a routine operation for professional players.
The second half of the game was about to begin, and Solari's evaluation of the end of the first half was unexpected.
"Cristiano Ronaldo's free kick was very surprising."
"I believe that all fans who are familiar with Ronaldo will feel this way, because it was rare to see him perform like this in the past, but now, he feels like he has a great sense of team honor."
"Another surprise is that everyone will be surprised by the advantage Real Madrid has achieved."
"Yes, Real Madrid is at an absolute disadvantage when it comes to possession of the ball, but judging from the scene, I believe everyone can see that Real Madrid has a great advantage, especially in the number of threatening attacks."
"Gao Shen has brought earth-shaking changes to Real Madrid. He has solved the problems left by Real Madrid in the past few years very well."
"I think even the most critical Real Madrid fans would deny this."
"He really embodies the value of a world-class coach."
Solari believes that proficiency is a key factor in Real Madrid's outstanding performance this season, and it can even be called a textbook.
"I received coaching training in Spain. Our teacher would ask us to analyze Real Madrid's tactics, game preparations, etc. He believed that what Gao Shen did at Real Madrid was worthy of all head coaches to ponder and learn from."
"You know, at the beginning of the season, when the La Liga schedule came out, we all knew that Real Madrid was going to suffer because the UEFA Champions League group stage schedule was fixed. When the La Liga schedule came out, it was patched together with the UEFA Champions League group stage schedule. Real Madrid's devilish schedule
There is no way to escape, which is very scary.”
"But when the draw for the Champions League group stage came out, we all went crazy. The schedule was terrible!"
"You know, our entire training class is composed of professional players, many of whom are still at the national level. Everyone is familiar with football, but seeing this schedule, especially after Marcelo and Arbeloa were injured, everyone went crazy.
,too crazy."
"But Real Madrid qualified second in the group."
Solari applauded vigorously and praised repeatedly, "I can't understand why there are still doubts outside. You know, it is always easier to criticize than to solve the problem, but only when you actually do it do you know how difficult it is."
"Looking at the Real Madrid at the beginning of the season, and then looking at the current Real Madrid, we will find that the changes are really huge."
"Ramos suspended? Look, how well Varane performed. Messi had almost no good performance tonight. No matter where he is, Varane can keep up with him."
"Arbeloa plays on the left. This is Gao Shen's routine. He did it when he first coached Real Madrid. And Carvajal on the right. My God, he is definitely Gao Shen's exploit for Real Madrid.
What a gem that came out.”
"My teammate Carlos in Real Madrid had a conflict with Gao Shen, and he still can't let it go, but he saw Real Madrid's performance this season, and he said to me, my God, Carvajal is just like me back then."
"But what surprises me the most is Real Madrid's tactical system, which is very stable. It doesn't look like Real Madrid at all."
"For the past many years, Real Madrid's defense has always given people the feeling of being unstable. The defense relies more on the players' personal performance, which always gives people a feeling of uneasiness."
"But since this season, even tonight, I think Real Madrid gives people a feeling of peace of mind."
"I even felt very strongly that Real Madrid would definitely have a chance to score in the second half."
Just as he was talking, he saw on the live TV screen that players from both teams had begun to enter the field one after another.
The live broadcast also switched to the Bernabeu Stadium.
…
As the whistle blew to start the second half, everyone became aware of some changes in Real Madrid.
Especially after kick-off, Real Madrid obviously moved forward more actively.
After losing the ball in the frontcourt, the team also reversed the strategy of the first half and began to invest more counterattacks and pressure near Barcelona's penalty area, and did not quickly return to the midline.
Moreover, this high-position pressing is also holistic, rather than the individual actions of several players.
This is obviously an instruction from a great master.
Barcelona still controlled the ball slowly and passed back and forth, but under Real Madrid's pressing, it was difficult to advance effectively. Even Messi was forced to retreat to a deep position to get the ball and support.
Real Madrid's players played very holistically. As soon as they saw that the frontcourt could no longer hold down the ball, they immediately retreated and dropped to near the midfield line.
This is back to the situation in the first half.
Barcelona tried to pass forward again and again, trying to push Real Madrid into the 30-meter zone, but Real Madrid always deployed heavy troops between the 30-meter zone and the center line and refused to retreat.
As soon as Barcelona's pass enters this area, it will immediately fall into the encirclement and suppression of Real Madrid.
Not only that, Barcelona is obviously also consciously avoiding too many balls appearing on the wing.
In the first half, the most common defense used by Real Madrid is the fan-shaped defense organized by a small team. On the wing, naturally limited by the scope of the stadium, this defensive effect is best on the wing.
Barcelona conceded many goals because of this.
But in the second half, it was more in the middle.
But everyone knows that the defense in the middle is the most intensive.
As a result, Barcelona continued to pass forward, pass directly, and pick up the ball in endlessly, but basically could not pass it into the 30-meter area of Real Madrid. They could only fall on the outside and be forced to pass back.
In just over a minute, Barcelona and Real Madrid had already attacked and defended several times.
But Barcelona was still forced to pass the ball back to their own half.
Puyol stopped the ball, but no one came up to press him.
The Barcelona captain took two steps forward and found Benzema approaching, and Alba beside him had already pressed forward, but Di Maria followed closely, which made Puyol unable to pass to Alba. So he stopped the ball.
At this moment, Iniesta retreated from the front and raised his hand to ask for the ball.
As soon as Puyol's pass was stopped by Iniesta, the Barcelona midfielder felt a force from behind. Just when he was about to turn around, the two collided firmly.
Yonesta's center of gravity suddenly lost his balance. He stumbled and lost control of the ball before losing his balance.
"Modric made the steal successfully."
"Yiniesta fell to the ground, but the referee did not blow the whistle and there was no foul."
"Benzema grabbed the ball before Busquets and passed it to Di Maria."
Di María stopped the ball with his left foot and headed diagonally towards the center. Benzema took the opportunity to pull to the right wing, while Ronaldo in front moved diagonally from the left rib to the center, ready to meet Di Maria at any time.
Real Madrid's three-person counterattack team played very well together.
Di Maria took two steps and before Xavi could catch up, he distributed the ball to the right with his left foot and quickly ran towards the center.
At this time, Ronaldo had already moved forward to the right side of the top of the arc.
If time had been frozen at this moment, we would have found that Barcelona had seven defensive players near its own penalty area, but there were only three Real Madrid players wearing white jerseys, which were the attacking trident in the frontcourt.
But even so, after stopping the ball, Benzema blocked Alba with his body, passed the ball diagonally to the right side of the penalty area, and then made a diagonal pass to the center of the penalty area.
Cristiano Ronaldo quickly inserted into the right side of the penalty area. Instead of stopping Benzema's pass, he used his body to block Puyol and Pique. He moved the ball back with the outside of his right foot and passed it right back to Benzema.
on the cut line.
Four Barcelona defensive players were broken through by two Real Madrid offensive players.
Benzema broke into the penalty area from the right corner and when he received the pass from Ronaldo, he had already left Alba, Iniesta and others behind.
Puyol reacted the fastest, turning around immediately and rushing towards Benzema, preventing the French center from shooting directly.
But Benzema reacted quickly enough. He feinted a shot without actually kicking the ball. Instead, he deceived Puyol into falling to the ground and blocked it. Then he passed the ball across to the left side of the penalty spot.
At this time, after just passing the ball to Benzema, Di Maria, who was running forward quickly, was already in place. He stopped with his left foot in response to Benzema's pass, and then struck again with his left foot.
The football almost followed a straight line and penetrated into the lower left corner of Barcelona's goal.
“goallllllllllllll!
!
!
!”
"Di Maria!
!
"
"Real Madrid's third goal!
"
After the Argentine winger scored, he turned around excitedly and rushed out of the field, making a heart sign with his hands in front of his chest.
Real Madrid players chased him out one after another and surrounded him excitedly.
"Barcelona's defense!"
"Seven defensive players were actually penetrated by three offensive players from Real Madrid."
"Although it was a quick counterattack, I have to say that Barcelona's defensive organization really has serious problems."
"There was no sense of hierarchy at all, and there was no defensive flexibility. We were broken through at once."
"The combination of Real Madrid's three stars' individual abilities in the frontcourt was truly breathtaking, and they completely outsmarted the Barcelona players."
"And we all know that this has always been Barcelona's specialty in the past, but now it is used by Real Madrid to break Barcelona's goal."
"Three to zero!"
"The current situation is really unfavorable for Barcelona."
"Real Madrid scored again less than two minutes into the second half."
The entire Bernabeu Stadium was filled with cheers from Real Madrid fans.
The live TV camera was also shown on the sidelines, and it was discovered that Gao Shen was also excitedly raising his fists in the air, looking extremely excited and excited.
He said that he would definitely score again in the second half.
But I really didn't expect that the goal would come so quickly.
As he has repeatedly emphasized to his players, Barcelona's defense is actually really bad.
However, their strong passing and ball control, as well as their aggressive counterattacks in the past, greatly concealed the poor defensive system.
But now, the ability to counterattack has dropped significantly, and the players' running ability has been weakened, which has completely exposed the problem.
"Believe it or not? I have a hunch that we can advance again!" Gao Shen asked Zidane.
