"The performance was good in the first half! We have to continue this rhythm in the second half... I don't know how Real Madrid will change, but the thickness of Real Madrid's bench is not very good now, and there is no suitable replacement candidate. At most, McManaman may
When he comes on the field, he will only replace Savio, or one of the two defensive midfielders... No matter how they change, we must insist on attacking in the second half and beat them with goals. We have this ability now
, we have this confidence, so why should we be conservative at home? Keep attacking! Real Madrid’s defense is much worse than their offense!”
Dick shouted this sentence with great momentum in the locker room. He was not used to pretending to be a grandson. The reason for pretending to be a grandson last season was because he had not yet fully controlled the team, and the defense was unstable and he had no confidence to play.
Offensively, the defense is now solid. The joining of Thuram and Makelele has helped him a lot, allowing him to train the offense wholeheartedly. Atletico Madrid's frontcourt attack combination may not be top-notch in terms of reputation, but in terms of strength
But he also has the ability to challenge teams of Real Madrid's level.
As he said, since you have the ability and the confidence, why should you be conservative at home? This is not a way to make yourself popular quickly...
This naturally meets the requirements of Atletico Madrid players. Jardel is used to playing offense in Portugal. Vicente and Camoranesi are offensive players. Belleron, as an organizer, also hopes that he can direct the offense.
, Aguilera and Capdevila are both good at assisting, and defensive players like Makelele and Thuram are unwilling to shrink their defense and be passively beaten. This tactic proposed by Dick is quite effective.
to their appetite.
After briefly arranging tactics, Dick waved the players to rest, but he sat down next to Torres.
"How was it? What did you think of the first half?" Dick asked Torres with a smile.
"If I were on the court, I would definitely not be as good as Jadel..."
Torres said in a low voice: "He can attract the attention of two defenders on the other side, fight with them, and at the same time assist... I can't do these things."
"Haha." Dick laughed, attracting other people's attention, so he made a gesture to instruct others to do their own thing, and then turned to Torres and said: "Fernando, why are you considering this?
You and Jardel have two different characteristics... He is a top center who can score goals and play ball. His physical fitness and size determine the way he plays. And you? You are a little younger than him.
Circle, can you play football the way he does? That's not what I want you to observe."
"Observing Real Madrid's defense, I have already done this." Torres shook his head: "Their defense position is very good, but their reaction and turn are a bit slow. At the same time, their midfielder was unable to do anything because of our midfield attack.
The French can provide enough protection for the defense. If my running can be more reasonable and the passing behind me can be more beautiful, I can find opportunities."
"It's enough to see this." Dick laughed happily, and then patted Torres on the shoulder: "Don't forget, you are looking for goals when you go on the field... run and wait for the pass from your teammates.
The ball, and then seize the opportunity to give them a fatal blow! Got it!”
"I know." Torres nodded, then glanced at Dick hesitantly.
Dick saw what he seemed to be saying, so he whispered to him: "Stay at the end and talk to me when you go out later."
Torres nodded, Dick said nothing, but went directly to Belleron and Baraja: "Ruben, Real Madrid will definitely pay attention to you in the second half, so you should be more honest... As usual, protect Hu
An... Juan, position a little more forward in the second half and use your passing and breakthrough to suppress their defense. The second half will be a tough battle."
Belleron and Baraja nodded at the same time. Baraja was a little unwilling. He scored two goals in the first half. If he can score one more in the second half, no matter what team he is on, he can score a hat-trick in the Madrid derby.
Sleight of hand, these are achievements that are enough to go down in history!
But he also knew that in addition to luck, he was able to score two goals in the first half because Dick's tactical arrangement hit Real Madrid's weakness. In the second half, Real Madrid will definitely strengthen its defense in response to this, rather than forcefully.
In pursuit of scoring goals, it is better to play the game honestly and according to the usual way, so that you might be able to seize the opportunity to complete a hat trick!
In the final analysis, he is not a killer who scores goals, but a diligent midfielder. Running in the midfield is his essential job - even if his skills and scoring ability are actually not bad.
After the halftime break, Dick clapped his hands and asked the players to set off, while Torres intentionally left at the end...
"What, do you have anything to say? Fernando?" Dick asked Torres as he walked out.
"Well... Boss, I just feel that with my characteristics, even if I become better in the future, I won't be able to serve as the main forward in the current tactics... It's not that I can't wait, but in this kind of tactics
It's hard for me to perform well next time." Torres said hesitantly.
Dick was stunned for a moment, stopped, and then looked at Torres.
Torres lowered his head. He knew that what he said was a bit abrupt, as if he felt that he would not be the main player in Atletico Madrid and wanted to transfer. Would it make the boss misunderstood? In that case, the boss would be used to it.
If you do this, your future at Atletico Madrid may be over...
Then he heard Dick's laughter.
Dick laughed heartily, and then patted Torres on the back: "You kid, what are you worried about? It turns out it's because of this..."
He hugged Torres and walked out together, and then said in a low voice: "Fernando, you have so little confidence in me? Do you think I can only use one tactic? Don't be kidding, I can't only play as a lone forward.
...Yes, after becoming the head coach of Atletico Madrid's first team, whether it was fighting fires last season or officially coaching this season, I was accustomed to using a single forward tactic. Even if there were four good forwards in the team, most of the time
They all insist on the tactic of playing a lone striker...but have you forgotten? What tactics did I always use when I was in Atletico Madrid's second team!"
This time it was Torres' turn to be a little dazed. While he couldn't help but move forward following Dick's footsteps, he began to recall how Dick led the team to play in the Atletico Madrid second team last season -
Often he would use a two-forward tactic, with center Zacinos charging in front to cover, and he kept scoring goals - there were no goals in the first seven rounds of the league. The big reason was that Atletico Madrid's second team played
It was a pure two-forward tactic. In fact, the only change Dick made was to let Torres move back a little. In the first game, Torres scored an immediate hat trick!
Seeing Torres' brows gradually unfurling, Dick laughed: "Do you understand?"
Torres nodded heavily: "I understand!"
"Then grow up quickly...Actually, I prefer the tactic of playing with two forwards!" Dick let go of his hand and walked out of the tunnel first.
A heartfelt smile appeared on Torres' face.
******************************************
"The second half has begun! Atletico Madrid did not choose to make a substitution, but Real Madrid made a substitution. England midfielder McManaman replaced Argentine midfielder Cambiasso. It seems that Real Madrid intends to attack aggressively in the second half.
To recover the lagging situation... Atletico Madrid's performance in the first half was quite outstanding. They washed away their previous decline in the Madrid derby. Not only did they score the first goal, but they also quickly took the lead again after Raul equalized the score. This season
The Madrid derby is indeed much more exciting than before, which is of course a good thing for neutral fans. Now let’s see what happens in the second half!”
Atletico Madrid, which took the lead in the second half, did not start to shrink its defense to maintain a one-goal lead as some commentators feared - Dick is not a head coach who only pursues good-looking scenes, he does not mind using the ugliest defense.
To win a key victory, however, in his opinion, facing this Real Madrid, relying on defensive counterattacks alone is of little use. They have many weapons to break the dense defense, whether it is Raul’s sensitive attack in front of the goal
The sense of smell, Morientes' ability to grab points and high balls in the penalty area, Figo's breakthrough and organization, and even Roberto Carlos' powerful long-range shots are all powerful weapons to break the dense defense, and there is only one ball advantage.
, it is easy to shrink, but it is not so easy to push it out again.
Push forward more resolutely, and even if the opponent equalizes the score, you can quickly take the initiative to launch an attack again - this requires a process of psychological adjustment, and it can also reduce the pressure on the defense line - with so many benefits, Di
Of course, Grams would not bet on the team being able to hold on until the end of the game and not allow Real Madrid to score.
What's more, the significance of the Madrid derby is that in such a game, one would rather fall on the road to charge than escape to survive!
Dick knows that if he wants to lead Atletico Madrid to achieve good results, it will not work without re-establishing the team's strong team mentality. For a team like Real Madrid, playing a game with dignity and dignity will be more effective than other teams.
All ten games must be good!
Therefore, the players of Atletico Madrid were entangled with Real Madrid in the midfield with high morale. Both sides have excellent attackers. Real Madrid is stronger in terms of personal ability of the attackers. However, Atletico Madrid has a slight upper hand in defense.
This result makes it difficult for both sides to create opportunities through the midfield. A lot of energy is spent on entangled with the opponent. Both sides are also very careful on the wing, because the opponent's wing has attackers that they are afraid of.
…
The scene fell into a stalemate, but exciting scenes are common, such as Figo's gorgeous dance in the midfield, Belleron's exquisite passing in the midfield... Although McManaman's appearance has reduced Real Madrid's midfield defensive ability,
However, his role in the offense can completely make up for this, which allows Real Madrid to gain a slight upper hand in the battle for the midfield - in the middle, of course, there are two wingers who are constantly pushing forward to suppress and Raul returns.
The credit for withdrawing support from the midfield is inside.
Atletico Madrid fans are a little anxious to watch. Atletico Madrid's advantage in the current scene is not too much. If it continues like this, although it may not necessarily concede the goal, it is still not enough if it wants to take the lead.
…
"Fernando, it's your time to play."
Just as Torres was looking at the situation on the field with some worry, Dick's voice rang in his ears. This made Torres stunned for a moment, and then he realized what he was doing and looked at Dick in astonishment.
Ke nodded affirmatively to him, and he quickly took off his coat and rushed out to warm up.
