Marcos Alonso turned around, stared at the scene in front of him in stunned silence, and then said this sentence almost subconsciously: "What the hell..."
As a head coach, even if he looks down on Getafe, he still has to do his homework, so he still understands Getafe's tactics.
What's more, Getafe's tactics are not a secret, they are not complicated, and they have been poorly analyzed by the media.
Therefore, he knows very well that defensive counterattack is Getafe's biggest weapon.
In fact, he made special arrangements before the game, asking the team to be particularly careful against Getafe's defensive counterattack.
At the beginning of the game, Atlético Madrid really noticed this aspect. No matter how they attacked, the defenders would not press forward easily.
But as the game progressed, and Getafe began to flex their muscles more, Atletico Madrid's team's attention shifted from Getafe's counterattack to physical confrontation.
They began to think more about how to compete with each other's body.
They gradually ignored Getafe's defensive counterattack, or in their minds, Getafe's muscles were their biggest threat. As for defensive counterattacks, they no longer cared about it.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, Getafe actually launched a high-quality counterattack!
Marcos Alonso did not see the first half of the counterattack. When he turned around, Getafe's counterattack had already reached the frontcourt.
In fact, the starting point of this counterattack was at Kiko's feet.
Kiko took the ball before entering and was immediately attacked by two Getafe players.
Kiko, who was timid, panicked. He couldn't control the football at his feet and was forced by Carlos Campo and Jose Passarella, losing possession of the ball.
After intercepting the ball, Carlos Campo quickly passed the ball diagonally to the feet of Luis Garcia in the frontcourt.
Luis Garcia gave full play to the solid basic skills and skills he had developed in the La Masia youth training camp, and beautifully unloaded this extremely difficult long ball in the air, stopped the ball, adjusted and dribbled the ball in one go.
, without wasting even a second.
This is something Chang Sheng repeatedly emphasizes in training.
The most important thing in counterattack is time.
Therefore, during the counterattack, if even half a second can be saved, it may bring a completely different result to the counterattack.
Therefore, in training, Chang Sheng specifically requires every player involved in the counterattack to have a correct attitude towards simple basic actions such as stopping the ball and catching the ball.
He requires players to touch the ball as little as possible and make as few adjustments as possible during counterattacks.
The counterattack must remain smooth. Only in this way can a truly threatening counterattack be formed.
Otherwise, if one or two players make a few more adjustments when stopping the ball, the counterattack may not be successful at all.
This kind of situation is very common in counterattacks. When Chang Sheng was a fan in the past, he saw this kind of situation countless times when watching football, so after he became the head coach, he implemented defensive counterattack tactics.
Just pay special attention to this.
Now his rigorous demands and discipline in training are paying off.
Luis Garcia's stop was very accurate, and Getafe's counterattack was particularly smooth. Naturally, it felt like one word - fast! Two words - really fast! Three words - fast.
Unbelievable!
※※※
Luis Garcia dribbled the ball forward.
Atletico Madrid's defenders quickly organized their defense.
Their previous focus was on the physical confrontation with Getafe. Unexpectedly, Getafe no longer showed their muscles with them. Instead, they showed their speed!
Whether it's muscle or speed, they are both fatal to Atletico Madrid now!
Besides, Getafe's counterattack is not just fast!
They are one of the few teams that can make multiple changes during a quick counterattack.
The combination of speed and variety makes counterattacks that are already difficult to defend even more difficult.
Luis Garcia did not dribble directly towards Atletico Madrid's goal, and the opponent's defensive focus had already tilted towards him.
Therefore, if he continues to dribble the ball, he will most likely lead the football directly to a dead end.
If he continues to dribble the ball from the wing, it will be much easier for Atletico Madrid to defend.
So he brings the football to the center, which gives him more options to choose from and makes it more difficult for the opponent to defend.
Sure enough, when they saw Luis Garcia dribbling the ball towards the center, the Atletico Madrid players panicked.
Charisteas was pulling towards the ribs, while Mista ran to the wing. The two of them separated Atletico Madrid's defenders from the left and the right, and separated Atletico Madrid's defense.
There was a brief gap in the middle of their defense.
It was this fleeting opening that was caught by Luis Garcia. He suddenly accelerated and rushed in with the ball!
By the time Atletico Madrid's defense reacted and closed the door, it was already too late.
Luis Garcia breaks into the penalty area!
"He's in!" Crespo shouted loudly, a little excited.
When the Getafe fans saw this scene, they also gave out huge cheers.
This is the best chance Getafe has had since the beginning of the game!
※※※
The huge cheers of the Getafe fans intensified the panic of the Atletico Madrid players, and immediately three Atletico Madrid defenders rushed towards Luis Garcia.
In the eyes of defenders, players with the ball are always more threatening than players without the ball.
Of course, Atletico Madrid is not completely stunned. After all, they are all experienced players, so there is still one person left to deal with Charisteas.
As for Mista, who has been pulled to the wing, no one cares about him. He is so far away, even if Luis Garcia passes the football to him, he cannot directly threaten the goal. He still has to pass the football
Pass to the middle.
So you don't need to worry about it.
Luis Garcia was waiting for this moment. When he saw these people rushing towards him, he quickly passed the football away, but he did not pass it to Mista or to Charesteas.
Instead, it was passed to...Balzaretti!
The full-back who had rushed in at high speed from the beginning of the counterattack did not appear on the wing at this moment, but inserted into the penalty area at some point!
Then he received a pass from Luis Garcia.
Luis Garcia's pass really surprised the Atletico Madrid players. No one would have thought that the football was passed to a full-back...
"Balzare—"
Crespo shouted loudly and in a long voice.
In his long voice, the Italian full-back swung his left foot, which had sent seventeen precise crosses.
But this time, it wasn't a cross.
But...shoot!!!
"--Detty-Detty!!!!"
Balzaretti's left foot hit the ball hard on the instep.
There was a muffled sound, and the fans in the stands heard it clearly.
The football that Balzaretti pulled out did not have any arc, and rushed straight towards the goal's... near corner!
Goalkeeper Tony had already turned here urgently and blocked the near corner. But his center of gravity was too low, and his whole body was almost lying on the ground.
The football shot by Balzaretti went towards the upper corner!
Tony's conditioned reflex raised his arms, but his movements were still too slow for the powerful slam that was so close at hand.
The football flew into the goal from above his hand. Like a meteor, it plunged into the net...
No one expected that Getafe would take the lead in the 27th minute of the game!
Balzaretti used his second league goal of the season to push Atletico Madrid to the edge of the cliff!
※※※
Toni was half kneeling on the ground. He raised his hands in the air and turned to look at the football that had flown into the goal. This action looked like he was raising his hands to surrender to Balzaretti and Getafe.
The other Atletico Madrid players were all stunned when they saw this scene.
The Atletico Madrid players who were chasing after the ball stopped chasing after the ball. They stared blankly at everything, as if they still couldn't believe what they were seeing.
The Getafe players around them raised their arms, jumped up, and cheered.
The completely different performances of the players of the two teams formed a sharp contrast.
Balzaretti, who scored the goal, stepped back, pointed with both hands at Luis Garcia, who assisted him, and shouted: "Come on, man!"
Luis Garcia opened his arms and ran towards Balzaretti, and the two hugged each other. Other Getafe players swarmed in, surrounded them, and swarmed them.
At this moment in the Alfonso Pérez Stadium, except for the hoarse cheers of the Getafe fans, there was no other sound!
Ahead of Atletico Madrid!
This was something they never dared to think about before, but at this moment, it has become a reality!
The country bumpkins on the outskirts of Madrid expressed their excitement as if they had won the game. In the eyes of those cold and noble people, such a performance would definitely be evaluated as "promising".
But country boys have never seen the world. This is not their shortcoming. It is precisely because of this that they have the motivation and determination to keep improving.
Work hard to change your destiny, and never back down even when facing a strong enemy.
Compared with those who no longer know what dreams are, they dare to dream the impossible, which in itself is their greatest advantage and strength, because it means that there are infinite possibilities for them.
They are not pretentious, confirm their reality, and respect a bright future.
That's why when they score a goal, they are so crazy and excited.
They don't care what others think of them. Compared with other people's opinions, the leading reality is more important!
Setting the backdrop for the ecstatic Getafe crowd were stunned Atlético Madrid players.
Their previous pride and sense of superiority were now shattered by the country bumpkin's goal!
