During the halftime break, Pellegrini only emphasized one point, which was to let Cristiano Ronaldo play Glen Johnson more. Judging from the first half of the game, Glen Johnson could hardly stand it.
Living.
Fifteen minutes passed during the intermission, and Real Madrid players walked out of the locker room one after another. Although they were trailing 0-1 in the first half, their mood was still very good, and they didn't feel any sense of disappointment at being behind.
The players of Real Madrid are confident that they can get the score back in the following games. They have already found a way to break the Liverpool goal.
Cristiano Ronaldo is full of confidence. He is very capable of dealing with Glen Johnson. He has completely defeated Glen Johnson in the first half of the game. He knows that as long as he works harder in the second half of the game, Glen Johnson will win.
Len Johnson is completely screwed.
However, at this moment, the fourth official raised a substitution sign, and Liverpool made a substitution. They replaced Glenn Johnson with Carragher, who was completely beaten in the first half. All Real Madrid players suddenly
The players were all stunned. They never thought that they would qualify?
On the sidelines, Real Madrid head coach Pellegrini's face was even redder. He really didn't expect that Benitez would make a substitution. When he was in the locker room, Pellegrini
Didn't think of this at all.
In Pellegrini's view, it is unlikely that Benitez will replace Glen Johnson. Liverpool's attack is on the wing, flying on both wings. If Glen Johnson is replaced, Liverpool will
How can the team fly together on both sides?
However, at this time, Pellegrini knew that it was right to replace Glen Johnson, because this guy had been beaten by Cristiano Ronaldo and had lost his confidence. If he were to stay on top, he would only make mistakes.
Seeing Benitez make such a timely substitution, Pellegrini felt very depressed. Now the tactical arrangement he made during the halftime break was completely useless. What now?
In fact, Benitez replaced Glen Johnson at the end of the first half. Glen Johnson couldn't guard Cristiano Ronaldo at all now. If Cristiano Ronaldo were to rush again,
, Glenn Johnson is about to collapse at this point.
Also, Glen Johnson was kept in the half court by Cristiano Ronaldo and had no chance to attack forward. In the first half of the game, his side never flew up, even if he continued to stay on the court.
It's impossible for both sides to fly together when joining the Liverpool team.
Therefore, at this time, it no longer made any sense for Glen Johnson to stay on the court. At this time, Benitez made a prompt decision and made a substitution.
Benitez replaced Glen Johnson with Carragher, so Carragher played as a central defender and Joel Luca moved to Glen Johnson's position.
Seeing Liverpool's substitution adjustment, Cristiano Ronaldo was stunned for a moment, then immediately stopped caring about it. Even a player as fast as Glen Johnson couldn't guard himself, and now he's getting a slower player.
Guys came to mark him. I really don’t know what Benitez was thinking?
Cristiano Ronaldo was dismissive of Benitez's substitution. He believed that Benitez's substitution was worse than no substitution just now. Killing Joel Luca was obviously worse than killing Glen Johnson.
Do you want to take it easy?
Why doesn't Benitez know this? However, he has his own plans for this substitution. Although Joel Luca is not faster than Glen Johnson, he is not slow either. Also, Joel Luca
His defensive skills are much better than Glenn Johnson's.
More importantly, Benitez is also planning to let Maxi Rodriguez come back to help Joel Luca defend, and it is enough to gather the strength of the two to delay Cristiano Ronaldo. It does not necessarily have to be death protection.
Cristiano Ronaldo.
If it's just this kind of task, Benitez believes that Joel Luca can do it much better than Glen Johnson. Moreover, Khedira and Mascherano in the middle are ready to come over at any time.
Preparation for make-up defense.
Although this cannot completely prevent Cristiano Ronaldo, it can at least restrict Cristiano Ronaldo and prevent this guy from doing whatever he wants like in the first half of the game.
In the second half of the game, Liverpool's tactics also changed, that is, defensive counterattack. In this way, Qiu Ze's position must be retreated, so that Qiu Ze almost becomes a defensive midfielder, while Khedira and Masche
Llano has become the sweeper in front of Liverpool's defense, which can also be said to be a defensive free man. Wherever they are needed, they rush to wherever they are needed.
Arshavin and Fernando Torres formed a high-speed striker combination in the frontcourt, ready for a quick counterattack at any time.
Seeing Liverpool's position, Real Madrid coach Pellegrini frowned. It seemed that the second half of the game was not as simple as he imagined.
Soon, Italian referee Rossetti blew the whistle to start the second half.
Real Madrid kicked off. After the kick-off, Real Madrid players also found that Liverpool's position and tactics were completely different from those in the first half. They were still somewhat uncomfortable.
However, at this time, Real Madrid forward Cristiano Ronaldo immediately raised his hand to ask for the ball. He was ready to attack Joel Luka, letting the Liverpool people know that your substitution was in vain and of no use at all.
Xabi Alonso, who got the ball in the middle, passed the ball to Cristiano Ronaldo on the wing with a long pass. When the ball was distributed towards Cristiano Ronaldo, Liverpool's full-back Joel Luca
He immediately stuck to him, sticking closely to Cristiano Ronaldo.
Cholluka's body is very strong. As long as he sticks to the opponent, it will be difficult for the opponent to turn around or get rid of him.
Cristiano Ronaldo's body swayed and he almost lost his balance. He was shocked, this guy was so powerful. Cristiano Ronaldo immediately used his strength to lean against the opponent, then raised his leg to unload the football.
Without any pause, Cristiano Ronaldo's feet immediately circled the football with his back, and his body swayed from side to side. He was trying to confuse Joel Luca behind him and let Joel Luca
It was impossible to tell which side he was going to turn around and break through.
Cristiano Ronaldo's movements are very lifelike and very fast. It is indeed difficult for Giorluka to judge.
At this moment, Cristiano Ronaldo suddenly turned around and broke through from the left side of Joel Luca's body, which was close to the side of the Liverpool penalty area. Once Cristiano Ronaldo turned around, he could directly dribble the ball inside.
It is very dangerous to cut towards Liverpool's penalty area.
However, Joel Luca behind him did not react. Cristiano Ronaldo was really strong. At this time, Joel Luca experienced the difficulty of Glen Johnson's first half.
Cristiano Ronaldo turned around like the wind and immediately stretched his legs to throw the football out and prepare to cut inside.
However, at this moment, wind blew under Cristiano Ronaldo's feet, and with a snap, the football under his feet was shoveled out and rolled out of the sideline.
Cristiano Ronaldo was shocked. He looked down and saw that it was Liverpool's full-back Maxi Rodriguez. This guy suddenly made a sliding tackle and shoveled the football out of the baseline.
Cristiano Ronaldo frowned slightly. At this time, he also realized that the second half of the game would definitely not be as simple as the first half. The opponent might have to use a sea of people tactics to defend him. However, Cristiano Ronaldo was not at all
Not afraid, he is Cristiano Ronaldo, who has he been afraid of?
Real Madrid's full-back Marcelo immediately rushed up and threw the sideline ball directly to Cristiano Ronaldo. But Cristiano Ronaldo hadn't caught the football yet and stretched out a line from Cristiano Ronaldo.
His long legs came and blocked the football from the sideline again.
It's Giorluca. At this time, Giorgiluca is clinging to Cristiano Ronaldo like a piece of candy. This makes Cristiano Ronaldo a little annoyed. This guy is following too closely.
There is not much free space, I want to protest!
This time Marcelo did not throw the football to Cristiano Ronaldo, but threw the football to Xavi Alonso who ran over to receive the ball. After receiving the ball, Xavi Alonso immediately passed the football to
In the middle, Mohamed Diarra receives the ball in the middle.
However, this rough guy stopped the football too much under Qiu Ze's crazy pressing. Qiu Ze rushed up like a wind, intercepted the ball and quickly rushed past Mohamed Diarra, heading towards the heart of Real Madrid.
"Damn it!" Cristiano Ronaldo and Pellegrini complained in unison.
Seeing Qiu Ze steal the ball, Arshavin and Fernando Torres in front immediately moved diagonally forward to the two wings, receiving Qiu Ze while leaving the center for Qiu Ze.
Real Madrid's defensive players felt a little uneasy. They did not dare to let go of Arshavin and Fernando Torres and rushed out to intercept Qiu Ze.
Qiu Ze's passing ability is very good. If they put down Arshavin and Fernando Torres and rush out, Qiu Ze will pass the football out to Arshavin or Fernando Torres at the first time.
That would be very dangerous, so Real Madrid's defensive players really didn't dare to rush out so rashly. Real Madrid's three defenders stood in a line, and they slowly retreated with Arshavin and Fernando Torres.
Of course, they did not retreat without a bottom line, they still pressed the rhythm, and even had the idea of causing offside in their hearts. However, they did not dare to cause it rashly at this time, because Qiu Ze passed the ball very viciously.
If they all move forward a little slower, Qiu Ze will be able to pass through their defense with a through ball.
