As the referee blew his whistle, the decisive battle of the second half began, and huge cheers rang out from the Stadium of Light.
The two teams collided fiercely like two beasts, or like two meteors colliding, causing huge sparks.
Ronaldo took the ball and was about to turn around when he was knocked down by Koke.
As soon as the camera turned, Thiago and Garcia had just completed the steal, and Garcia, who was holding the ball, was knocked down by Bell!
The scene was extremely chaotic and tragic.
In the ninth minute of the second half, Real Madrid got a corner kick opportunity. Modric sent the football into the penalty area. Godin and Benzema were competing for a header, but their heads collided.
The two men screamed and fell on the turf.
Godin's face was covered in blood, and slow motion showed that when fighting for a header, Benzema hit Godin in the face.
Godin's eyebrow bone was cracked!
Both of them came out for treatment.
Two minutes later, Li Chuanqi was about to get the ball when he was knocked down by Khedira.
In the fourteenth minute of the second half, when Costa was competing for a header, he hit Ramos in the face with an elbow, causing Ramos to have a nosebleed...
The scene was filled with all kinds of fouls and smelled of blood.
Simeone was very satisfied with this scene and roared excitedly in the command area.
Ancelotti chewed gum and stood in the command area, shouting at the players from time to time.
This was not the scene he wanted, but he was never afraid of such a scene.
In the 18th minute of the second half, Cristiano Ronaldo stumbled in front of the penalty area and shot a long shot!
The football missed the goal!
After the Portuguese superstar was annoyed, he began to encourage Real Madrid fans to shout louder!
Atletico Madrid puts all their energy into defense.
Five minutes later, Bell forced his way into the penalty area and suddenly fell down.
"Penalty kick!"
Real Madrid fans roared loudly, but the referee remained unmoved.
The slow motion shows that Bale was knocked over by Godin just when he dribbled the ball into the penalty area.
Real Madrid's offense continued to increase its intensity, and Atletico Madrid resisted tenaciously amidst Simeone's roar.
This is a competition of wills, and whoever fails to withstand it first will collapse.
In the 24th minute of the first half, Atletico Madrid got a quick counterattack opportunity, and Koke transferred the football to Li Chuanqi's feet.
Li Chuanqi took advantage of the situation and transferred the football to Gabi's feet.
Gabi directly passed the ball over the top and found Garcia who was advancing from the left.
Garcia quickly went down and saw that Li Chuanqi, who was following up in the middle, was being targeted by two Real Madrid players, and he passed the ball across the goal!
Costa, under the interference of Ramos, made a shovel shot!
Casillas stretched his foot to block the football from the baseline!
Costa beat the turf angrily...
The Sky Sports commentator said loudly: "Lee and Costa were heavily targeted by Real Madrid's defense tonight, and Costa once again missed a good opportunity to score!"
As time goes by, the physical exertion of both sides is increasing, especially the Atletico Madrid players, and some players have even suffered from cramps.
Everyone in Atletico Madrid is worried, time, hurry up...
In the 35th minute of the second half, Real Madrid launched a quick counterattack. Bale relied on his speed advantage to sprint all the way, dribbling the ball and finishing the half.
Seeing that Bale was about to form a single sword, Godin lowered his center of gravity and knocked him down with a flying shovel!
This ball almost caused a conflict between the two sides, and the referee gave Godin a yellow card!
Real Madrid were obviously dissatisfied with the referee's decision. Cristiano Ronaldo yelled at the referee: "This is obviously a red card! If he doesn't foul, it's a one-shot!"
The referee gave Ronaldo a yellow card.
Three minutes later, Atletico Madrid launched a quick counterattack, and Li Chuanqi started the breakthrough mode after receiving Gabi's cross pass.
His teammates are now at their physical limit, and he has to shoulder the offensive responsibility on his shoulders.
Ramos and Khedira quickly launched a pincer attack, and Li Chuanqi was forced to break out of the encirclement.
Carvajal makes a flying tackle!
Li Chuanqi pulled his left foot to avoid the opponent's flying tackle.
How could Khedira miss such a good opportunity? Her left shoulder hit Li Chuanqi's back hard, and Li Chuanqi fell down.
"Beep!..."
The referee blew the whistle.
Players from both sides rushed toward the center of the incident, and a conflict was about to break out.
The referee wiped the sweat from his face, rushed to the center of the incident, and gave Khedira a yellow card!
Then he took out another red card!
The Sky Sports commentator loudly said: "In order to contain Li, Real Madrid paid the price with a red card!
Khedira brought Lee down and received a second yellow card, two yellows turned into one red, and the German midfielder was sent off with a red card!"
The commentator of France 2 said loudly: "The balance of victory tilts towards Atletico Madrid! Not only is Real Madrid lagging behind in the score, they are now also at a disadvantage in terms of numbers!"
The Real Madrid fans at the scene and in front of the TV were as cold as if they had fallen into an ice cave.
Ancelotti spit out his chewing gum and his expression finally changed.
Simeone exhaled a long and heavy breath. He looked at the huge electronic display screen on the stadium. Thirty-eight minutes, seven minutes left, plus stoppage time... there are about twelve minutes left!
"Hey!……"
Simeone yelled at Godin, indicating that the defense and midfield should be more closely connected and not give Real Madrid forwards too much space.
Costa pulled Li Chuanqi up and asked, "Is it okay?"
Li Chuanqi touched his back, which was still aching, and nodded to him: "No problem!"
Everyone is working hard, so this little pain is nothing.
Seeing Li Chuanqi's sunny expression, Atletico breathed a sigh of relief.
Khedira's red card eased the pressure on Atletico Madrid.
After the game restarted, Ancelotti made adjustments to the lineup, replacing Di Maria and replacing him with Marcelo.
At the same time, let Ramos play as a defensive midfielder, and full-back Coentrao switched to center back.
The Milan Sports Station commentator loudly said: "Ancelotti's substitution is questionable. In this case, shouldn't he be replaced with an offensive player? But Marcelo can fully shoulder the heavy responsibility of wing attack!
In such a severe situation, I don’t know if Marcelo can shoulder the heavy responsibility of attacking!"
Simeone called Juanfran to his side and gave him instructions.
Although Marcelo is a full-back, his offensive ability is stronger than many wingers.
When the game restarted, Atletico Madrid did not directly drop the free kick into the Real Madrid penalty area to start the attack, but moved the football to the wing.
Real Madrid's midfield and frontcourt, led by Ronaldo, immediately launched a fierce press.
Ronaldo used his strong body to knock Juan Fran away and steal the football from his feet.
"foul!"
Miranda yelled at the referee and ran towards Ronaldo.
The referee made a gesture to continue the game.
Miranda made a flying shovel, and Ronaldo fell to the turf and rolled in pain.
After the referee blew the whistle, he ran towards the center of the incident and faced Miranda on the turf with a red card!
