"The first half of the game is over! Atletico Madrid leads Real Madrid 2-1 at home! The goal for Atletico Madrid was their top forward Jardel. He opened the scoring for Atletico Madrid with a shot in front of the goal in the first half, and then
Scored Atletico Madrid's second goal with another penalty kick! This is his seventh goal in La Liga this season! Seven goals in six league rounds, what a terrible scoring ability, now he is on the scorer list
They were far ahead! The goal for Real Madrid was the French superstar Zidane, who was transferred to the world's most valuable player in the summer. He used a wonderful kick to equalize the score for Real Madrid. But it is obvious that the card
The absence of Los and Figo has caused Real Madrid to suffer a lot in the midfield and defense. If there are no great changes in this aspect, Real Madrid may be a little dangerous in this game..."
If the commentator's words were heard by Del Bosque in the visiting team's locker room, he could only smile bitterly - change? How to change? No matter how good the head coach is, he must have the right players to change, and Carlos is not here
, Raul Bravo is not performing well, who else can he replace? The combination of Pavin and Campo is already the best central defender combination he can come up with now. Karanka is injured and Hierro is not in good health.
Okay, who can he replace? As for the midfielder... the weak midfielder is already an old problem, but only one Zidane came in the summer, and none of the midfielders and central defenders he wanted came. In Florentino
In Nuo's view, young people like Pavin Reuven are enough to make up for the strength of the backcourt...
Regarding this idea, Del Bosque can only choose to be speechless. In fact, most head coaches cannot see this. Even if they see it, there is no good way. Their team is not strong enough to press through the midfield.
Real Madrid's defense, but Dick always exploits this weakness. No wonder Real Madrid's performance against them last year was not very good...
"In the second half, we have to seize more opportunities on offense... It's up to you to control the midfield, Zizou. If we can suppress them in the midfield, we can get more opportunities and reduce their offense.
Opportunity, this is very important for this game." Del Bosque said after thinking for a while Zidane.
Zidane nodded. He knew that Del Bosque had only this way now. Although it is very difficult to suppress Atletico Madrid's midfielder who is not lacking in running skills and confrontation, but for a player like him
For them, only by achieving results under such important responsibilities can they prove their worth!
"In the second half, if Real Madrid wanted to get a good chance, they would have no other choice but to continue to compete with us in the midfield... because they had no one to replace, and it was difficult for them to resist our attack on the back line.
It is also difficult for the forward line to find any opportunities from our defense. If we want to win, we can only use the midfield to suppress us, create more opportunities for them, and give us fewer offensive opportunities.
This is their only way, so what we have to do is to fight them in the midfield! The two full-backs also press up, forming an advantage for our midfield. Their full-backs can also press up, but Carlos is not there.
We have the advantage in the full-backs, so we can have an advantage over them in the midfield... Don't worry about their wing attacks. Figo is not here. Munitis alone can't cause too much damage to our wing.
The big trouble is that they don’t have any fast forwards. We tell them with practical actions that after missing the two main players, they are not as good as us in any link! The current Madrid derby is not the same as in previous years! Now our overall
Not only is the strength not inferior to them, but it is actually stronger than them!"
The Atletico Madrid players cheered one after another. They also firmly believed in this. The current Atletico Madrid and the previous Atletico Madrid have undergone radical changes. Because of Dick's good vision, those who remain are basically outstanding players.
Players, and the introductions are also powerful players and famous superstars. After Dick's two summers of management, Atletico Madrid has been able to compete with those top teams in terms of strength!
Under such circumstances, they naturally have their own pride and confidence. They may not feel confident about playing in the Champions League because they lack such experience, but in the league, they are not afraid of any team at all, no matter it is
Real Madrid or Barcelona! Dick's fearless character is also influencing Atletico Madrid's players in a subtle way.
After the start of the second half, the players of Atletico Madrid started pressing against Real Madrid in the midfield. After seeing the two full-backs Hector and Capdevila also constantly advancing into the midfield to help press and attack.
At that moment, Bosque's expression changed a little.
If Carlos is here, Del Bosque will not worry about this at all. If Carlos is here, he is confident that only two midfielders, Figo and Zidane, are enough on the field, and Carlos can be left with one on the left.
However, now that Figo and Carlos are not here, Raul Bravo comes to the midfield to help press? Del Bosque is really worried that his left wing will be beaten by the opponent...
"Why is this little bastard targeting our weak spots... I didn't see you dare to compete with us in the midfield like this when Carlos was here..." Del Bosque, who had always been silent about his mood and anger, also felt a little angry in his heart, and he hit
For example, when playing checkers, it is normal to block the opponent's path, but it is a bit disgusting to block the opponent's path if you would rather take one or two less steps. Dick could have used other
method to deal with Real Madrid, but he chose to use this method of pursuing and attacking Real Madrid's temporary weakness, which makes people feel that he is being obedient after getting an advantage, and is deliberately disgusting you...
"This bastard is really annoying." Bosque cursed in his mind.
But even though he scolded him, he still couldn't stop Atletico Madrid from gaining the advantage in the midfield. Although Zidane played very well, after all, it was difficult for him to beat four hands with two fists. Baraja and Makelele basically followed him.
The constant siege around him made it difficult for him to get the ball. At this time, Zidane felt a little bit how much he would be affected by Figo's absence...
Figo and Zidane are both very, very, very important to Real Madrid's midfield. It would be impossible without one of them...
In the stranglehold in the midfield, Atletico gradually gained the upper hand. Real Madrid's midfield was a little worse than in history. Makelele was intercepted by Dick midfield, leaving Real Madrid without a strong enough player.
As for the midfielder, although Cambiasso has good abilities, he is still very young and is not enough to play a big role. Coupled with Figo's absence, Real Madrid's four midfielders with quite good configurations are now only half.
, what kind of outstanding results can be achieved is really unknown...
At least under the pressure of Atletico Madrid's midfield, Real Madrid's formation was forced to gradually move back to relieve the pressure. In this case, Atletico Madrid's two high center forwards began to become active, although Atletico Madrid did not let the game go.
Vicente came on, but the bold pressure of the two full-backs made Atletico Madrid's wing attack not weak. Capdevila and Hector were both good at passing crosses.
It was also because Atletico Madrid gained the overwhelming advantage in the midfield that their two full-backs dared to press boldly. You must know that under the pressure of Atletico Madrid's midfield, Raul was forced to retreat and play as an avant-garde.
, with only Morientes left, the pressure on Atletico Madrid's defense has been reduced a lot, which makes Capdevila and Hector appear to have no worries when pushing forward.
In the 75th minute, after continuous back and forth passes, Belleron received Camoranesi's pass in front of Cambiasso, and then he quickly passed a through ball and ran horizontally.
Jardel blocked Pavin with his body, and Campo's follow-up was a step too late. Cruz strode forward, got rid of Campo's defense in an instant, and then caught up with the ball, forming a one-on-one!
Amid the cheers of countless Atletico Madrid fans, Cruz calmly adjusted the pace of his feet. This season he has more opportunities to play in the league than last season, but he has not scored a single goal. Although his contribution is not enough
It’s a small number, but for a striker, the most direct statistical evidence is still scoring goals!
Calmly dunking again, Cruz saw Casillas rushing out with open arms. His center of gravity was very low, as if he was ready to pounce on the ground ball at any time. Cruz raised his right foot and tiptoed when he swung it down.
Slightly upward...
Casillas wanted to induce him to shoot. When he saw the movement of his ankle, Casillas immediately paused and was about to jump up, Pokerus' lob!
However, the moment Cruz touched the ball, it turned into a push shot!
The ball quickly flew out of the ground and rolled past Casillas. When Casillas fell to the ground again, it was already too late - but when he threw himself down in embarrassment, Casillas was also very convinced.
For such a terrifyingly calm shooter, there seems to be nothing dissatisfying about scoring a goal...
Especially since he has been in a goal drought for a long time! It is really surprising that he can still act so calmly under such circumstances...
Cruz opened his arms and rushed to the stands. It was indeed a happy thing to break his goal drought in such an important game. It was not until he rushed to the stands that he turned around and opened his arms to face the attacker.
teammates.
Dick laughed off the court and clapped his hands. Cruz did not live up to his expectations. In this game, Dick used two goal cards in one breath, one of which was used on the outstanding player.
On Jardel, the other one was used on Cruz, who didn't seem to be in particularly good condition. For this reason, he never replaced Cruz, just to see if Cruz could score his own goal.
Huang, now it seems that Cruise did not disappoint him!
The previous goal drought was just bad luck. After the goal card broke the last obstacle, Cruz's goal immediately became a matter of course!
"This is a guy worth cultivating, and it's not in vain that I put so much effort into him." Dick thought in his heart, a player like Cruz is indeed worth cultivating!
After breaking the goal drought, Cruz seemed to be in a state of explosion.
Although Munitis recovered a point for Real Madrid after receiving a pass from Zidane in the 72nd minute, Cruz's header three minutes before the end completely helped Atletico Madrid win the game.
In the game, 4 to 2, Atletico Madrid achieved a brilliant victory at home, erasing the predicament of three consecutive draws in the league!
"With Dick, there is victory!" The song composed by Atletico Madrid fans resounded throughout the Calderon Stadium. After such an exhilarating game, only singing can soothe their emotions!
