"The ball was scored! No one expected that when both Cristiano Ronaldo and Bale were stared at by Southampton players, center back Ramos became Real Madrid's savior! When Real Madrid's offense as a whole fell into a passive situation
, his header solved the problem! It was one to one, and in the 30th minute, Real Madrid equalized the score!"
Ancelotti started to celebrate a little uncontrollably. Of course he knew that such a seemingly accidental goal might bring huge changes to the progress of the entire game!
"Damn, they're so lucky."
Noriya muttered in his heart, conceding the ball at a corner kick was purely luck. No one could be absolutely sure about a corner kick. Under such circumstances, being scored by Real Madrid could only be said to be bad luck.
Fortunately, this is just a return from the second-hand preparation to the first-hand preparation.
While the Real Madrid players were celebrating wildly, Ji Ya called Wundt and then said a few words to him.
Font nodded and quickly conveyed his words.
Return to the offensive path.
Although Real Madrid's counterattack is also very threatening, after all, it is not a long pass that can solve the problem. If there is a mutual blow, who is afraid of whom?
After the game restarted, Southampton immediately launched a fierce attack!
This made Real Madrid a little uncomfortable.
After all, the sneak goal after the opening and the focus on defensive counterattacks later made Real Madrid players begin to feel that Southampton's final was all about defensive counterattacks and nothing else.
As a result, Southampton's attack and momentum immediately surprised Real Madrid...
Klein received the ball from De Bruyne on the wing, and then made a decisive pass. The curved ball flew into the penalty area. Varane jumped in front of Suarez to clear the ball with a header but failed to go far.
De Bruyne scored with a long shot, and the ball flew into the penalty area. Ronaldo followed up with another kick, but Ramos flew to block the ball.
This continuous attack caused Real Madrid's entire defense to break out in a cold sweat.
"Ramos performed very well! He just scored a header to equalize the score, and now he is making consecutive blocks!"
As the commentator shouted, Ji Ya frowned and thought for a moment, then made a gesture to the field.
Southampton's offense immediately changed. The two full-backs began to penetrate deeper and began to break through diagonally into the penalty area, attracting the opponent's attention from both wings.
Soon, Luke Shaw passed back after a breakthrough, and Ronaldo followed up with a shot. The ball hit Carvajal and flew out of the baseline for a corner kick.
Southampton's two central defenders ran up at the same time. Southampton is not particularly tall in terms of height. One of the two central defenders is 1.91 meters and the other is 1.83 meters. The forward Lukaku is the tallest.
When it comes to Suarez, his ability to challenge for high balls is not particularly strong.
However, coupled with the accuracy of Mkhitaryan or De Bruyne's corner kicks, the lethality is still very high.
Mkhitaryan takes a run-up and takes a corner kick!
The ball arced into the penalty area. Southampton's players took off and tried to top it but failed. Coentrao pushed the ball out of the penalty area, but due to the interference of Suarez, he was unable to push the ball forward.
The ball flew to the outside of the penalty area. Casemiro followed up and pushed the ball back into the penalty area, just in the direction of Wundt. Wundt quickly took off again and headed the ball before Ramos could clear the ball!
Just now, Casillas had not been able to return after attacking. When he saw the ball flying behind him, Casillas was immediately frightened. He quickly turned around and ran back. To say that his reaction was already very fast, after the ball
When he started to fall, he rushed over and reached out to catch the ball...
However, he was still a step slower.
This time, only a ball of air was caught. The ball hit the goal and then bounced upward.
Casillas' outstretched hand was just a little off, probably less than five centimeters.
Casillas smiled bitterly as he landed. If he had been five years younger, no, three years younger, this goal would have been avoided!
But the hero dies...
Last season, he was put on the bench by Mourinho. Although he regained his main position this season, he did seem to be unable to do his job as he got older.
"The ball went in! Southampton's captain Font stood up at this critical moment! Just six minutes after conceding the goal, Southampton took the lead again! The same corner kick!"
Amidst the shouts of the commentator, Wundt began to celebrate with his teammates. Being the captain of Southampton was an incredible thing for Wundt, who was still in the British Championship a few years ago. But now, as the captain
He also scored a goal in the Champions League final, which is even more incredible...
But as long as Southampton fans have watched his performance in the past few years, they will know how outstanding Wundt's performance is.
This central defender, who was once homeless and could only play in the lower leagues, has never shown any signs of stretch after joining Southampton, which is still in the English League.
At any time, he can perform extremely well. This alone is enough to put countless defenders to shame!
Now, he has reached the highest peak of his career!
In the rest of the first half, neither side was able to create better opportunities. The referee blew the whistle to end the first half, and Southampton entered the locker room with a 2-1 lead!
This made the Southampton fans quite excited. Not only did they sing and dance, at least they continued to sing and cheer loudly during the halftime break.
"Well done in the first half! But in the second half Real Madrid will definitely launch a more violent attack. Don't forget, Bale and Ronaldo haven't exerted their strength yet, and Benzema can't be underestimated... Understand, their
There are too many players who can score in the frontcourt, so we must be careful about this."
The players nodded. They played very smoothly in the first half. On the contrary, Real Madrid played a little awkwardly. However, this situation will definitely not last forever and it will be even more difficult in the second half.
"Of course, we will not be worse than them as passers or scorers... shoot when you have the chance and score more goals for me!" Noriya said, waving his fist.
"That's right, especially since Casillas is not young anymore, it will be easier to break through his door than before." Benelli added.
The players laughed loudly, and Benelli's words were answered very well. As a head coach, it is difficult for Ji Ya to say such things, but Benelli said that there would be no problem.
But this makes sense. Casillas is indeed not the magical Casillas he used to be. After all, he is older. Although thirty-three is not a particularly old age for a goalkeeper, considering that he is only 1.8 meters tall.
Second, to a large extent, food depends on instantaneous reactions, and reactions will definitely decline significantly after the age of thirty. This is a physiological law, and it is difficult to maintain through training.
It cannot be said that it was unreasonable for Mourinho to put him on the bench last season.
It's time for Real Madrid to update their goalkeeper position, so before they do it, there are still some advantages they can take advantage of.
