Old Trafford is one of the world's most terrifying home stadiums. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The moment they walked out of the players' tunnel from Atletico Madrid, the more than 70,000 fans in the entire stadium never stopped harassing and attacking them, even for a second.

Although Ferguson and captain Keane have repeatedly bombarded the home atmosphere at Old Trafford, and Ferguson has even mocked many fans for sitting in the box drinking red wine and eating steak to start the game, the atmosphere in this stadium is still terrifying.

The high pressure of more than 70,000 fans is enough to make the slightly more timid people have stage fright.

Atletico Madrid has also seen a lot in the past two years, entering the Camp Nou, making trouble at the Bernabeu, breaking through the San Siro, and even Bayern Munich's Olympic Stadium, and the players have also developed a lot of courage.

But the moment they walked into Old Trafford, they still felt the madness and enthusiasm of the English fans.

What's more, this season's Champions League final will be held at this stadium.

This made all the Atletico Madrid players who walked into this stadium have some special associations in their hearts.

The Champions League final, which is the stage that many professional players dream of?

Compared with the away team's consternation of Grandma Liu's entry into the Grand View Garden, Manchester United is much more mature and stable.

Even if Ferguson scattered smoke bombs before the game, before the game, everything was revealed.

Manchester United are basically playing with their main players.

The goalkeeper is France's Butters, while the backline is Silvestre, Rio Ferdinand, Brown and Gary Neville.

The midfielders from left to right are Ryan Giggs, Barth, Keane and David Beckham.

Paul Scholes played in the forward midfield position, with Dutch centre-forward Ruud van Nistelrooy supporting the line independently.

Although gold medal substitute Ole Gunnar Solskjaer performed well on the right flank while Beckham was recovering from injury, Alex Ferguson opted for Beckham to start.

In addition to playing the main force, Ferguson's intentions are also clear at a glance.

With the whistle of Italy's gold medal referee Collina, Manchester United began to press hard, and even the entire back line pressed forward desperately, with only one goal, to try to score as soon as possible.

Without the slightest fancy, without the slightest temptation, the two teams are like two legions facing each other on the battlefield.

As soon as the whistle sounds, I am invincible.

When the two legions collided together, they were suddenly killed, flying sand and rocks, and the sun and moon were dark.

This also made the fans in the stands scream in surprise and shouted.

The pace of the game was very fast and both sides played without reservation.

Compared with Manchester United's main force, Gao Han fine-tuned Atletico Madrid's starting lineup.

Out of fear of Giggs, Gao Han finally chose Roberto, who has more reassuring defensive ability, in the right wing-back position.

In a back three on the right, Diego Simeone rotated Marcos Senna to start.

These two teammates from the double championship period in the 90s cooperate with each other very tacitly, which Gao Han relies on very much.

As he said before the game, Giggs's ability to create a threat with the ball at high speed is very rare in European football and has to be guarded against.

For Manchester United's style of play that rushed to attack and speed up the pace of the game after the opening, Gao Han was mentally prepared and did not panic when he coped.

It's just that after the opening, Atletico Madrid's players on the field seemed to be a little impatient.

Manchester United's fast-paced pressing and pressing style of the Premier League style still makes Atletico Madrid players feel uncomfortable and a little difficult to deal with.

"Ferguson, this old guy is not simple. ”

Although Gao Han was never soft on Ferguson, he still admired this old man in his heart.

Ryan Giggs, Keane, Paul Scholes and David Beckham, these four midfielders not only complement each other's characteristics, but also are perfect, admired and tacitly understood, and Ferguson's skills can be seen in such a combination.

In recent years, Ferguson has begun to focus on moving Manchester United's tactics closer to the direction of continentalization, and began to pay attention to the control of rhythm and ball possession, which is correct, but his trust in Veron is still not enough. ”

Veron's performance at Manchester United is indeed much worse than at Lazio, but it is not to say that it is useless, and in many games, the White Wizard still showed a very high standard, but his position at Manchester United is very embarrassing.

Manchester United mainly play 442, and now they start to play 4411.

At first, Ferguson meant to join Veron, but soon found out that how to divide and cooperate between Belon and Keane?

Even in many cases, there is a conflict of power between Veron and Beckham.

The two have a lot in common, such as a wide range of aggressive movements, sharp and precise long passes......

Veron is like a third party who suddenly stepped in, and it is difficult to insert a foot in the four midfielders who originally cooperated tacitly and had high prestige in the team, coupled with the fact that he was new to the situation and did not adapt to the characteristics of the Premier League, which caused Veron to fail to integrate into the team.

There is news that Ferguson has decided to give up.

But Veron's defeat also indirectly reflects the weakness of Manchester United and even the vast majority of Premier League teams.

Lack of strong control over the tempo of the game and possession of the ball.

Arsenal have been at their best thanks to Arsene Wenger's introduction of the French gang, and United have consciously strengthened their ability in this area, but the presence of midfielders such as Roy Keane has kept United moving slowly.

Therefore, in this game, Gao Han's strategy is also very clear.

In the opening game, Manchester United was allowed to rush and grab, because this is the characteristic of the Red Devils, and it is simply impossible to force it down.

But Atletico Madrid will have to be patient, hold their defence steady and wait for their opponents to make mistakes.

"Manchester United will make mistakes!" Gao Han said very firmly.

Unai Emery and Cantarero both nodded incessantly.

No team can maintain a fast pace of attacking and pressing for a long time, the physical consumption is too great, they will have to slow down sooner or later, and then the rhythm and ball possession will belong to Atletico Madrid.

Moreover, players such as Beckham, Keane, and Ferdinand have all returned from injury, and there are estimated problems in terms of fitness.

So, as long as Atletico Madrid keeps their poise and remains patient, Manchester United will make mistakes.

Everyone knows that what Atletico Madrid do best is counter-attack.

Especially a counterattack on the spot after a successful defense!

"Unai, Carlos. ”

"In. ”

"I'm here. ”

The two assistants, one on the left and one on the right, immediately looked at Gao Han.

"Always remind the players that they must be patient, play Manchester United, we must not be in a hurry, if we are in a hurry, we will definitely die. ”

Cantarero nodded, "Understood." ”

"Tell Jankulovski to move him a little forward, Beckham is not good at getting down, but he likes to find Ruud van Nistelrooy in the box at a 45-degree angle, and Gary Neville to cut in from behind, so be careful. ”

"Tell Deco to pay attention to the protection of the left side. ”

"Understood. Emery agreed.

…………

…………

"On the right side, it doesn't matter if Gary is a little bit more forward, or even straight to the bottom line. ”

Alex Ferguson is also fine-tuning the team's on-pitch formation, especially the positions and responsibilities of the players.

'Further on, we're a back three. Assistant coach Steve McClaren reminded.

But Ferguson was resolute, "Then let Brown's position move to the right side, and the back three will be the back three, we must strive for the goal as soon as possible, this breath can't be vented!"

From Ferguson's face, there was not even the slightest hint of arrogance and arrogance in the pre-match press conference, only caution and apprehension about the situation of the game.

Steve McLaren didn't quite understand what Ferguson meant, but he did know that there was certainly nothing wrong with being obedient.

Only Ferguson, after sending off his assistant, shook his head and sighed.

Few Englishmen today understand the importance of controlling the tempo of the game and controlling the ball.

When many people mention their rival Arsene Wenger, they will only say that the various reforms he brought to Arsenal have made Arsenal from an ugly style of play to a gorgeous representative of attacking football, but these are only superficial efforts.

At the heart of the story is that Arsene Wenger taught Arsenal how to control the tempo of the game, how to keep the ball.

In the Premier League, which blindly pays attention to long passes and blindly chases fast-paced offense and defense, whoever controls the rhythm and controls the ball can become the master of the field.

In the past decade or twenty, why has it been difficult for English teams to make achievements in European football, especially in the Champions League?

Not to mention other teams, even Manchester United, when encountering giants of the same level in other European leagues, it is basically difficult to have an advantage, and it often ends in defeat.

It's because in terms of tempo and possession, Premier League teams lag far behind teams in other European leagues.

Of course, there are historical reasons for this in English football, but it also has a lot to do with the fact that English football is pursuing a fast pace of attack and defense and physical confrontation.

Today's Premier League teams only have two tricks to win in European football.

Either play the whirlwind quickly, try to score first, disrupt the opponent's rhythm, and let the game always play at your most comfortable pace.

Either that, or simply retreat and defend and counterattack.

Ferguson didn't want his team to play defensive counter-attacking again, so he had to attack.

Red Devils Red Devils, Manchester United who does not rush at home and is not full of passion, is it still called the Red Devils?

Thinking of this, Ferguson shifted his gaze from the pitch to the sidelines, the figure standing outside the visitors' dugout.

Gao Han, a boy who was only twenty-six years old.

"It's all like this, you can still calm down, this kid is not simple!" Ferguson frowned and muttered to himself.

The reason why he wanted to attack Atletico Madrid before the game was to provoke his opponents.

From the head coach Gao Han to the main star of the team, they are basically young players.

As the so-called young and vigorous, it is easy to be greedy for success, Ferguson is to use words to provoke the opponent, and then cooperate with Manchester United's rush at the beginning of the game, so that the opponent loses patience in the game.

Judging from the period at the beginning of the game, Gao Han didn't seem to have hit the plan.

Not only that, but he also had two of his assistants keep an eye on the situation at all times, constantly reminding the players on the field to stay calm and rational and not to mess around.

From this point, it is not difficult to see that Ferguson's abacus, Gao Han is very clear.

"It seems that we can only rely on strength to see the real chapter under our hands!" Ferguson smiled proudly.

As the head coach of the team, he has a strong sense of confidence in the players he has trained himself.

Especially at Old Trafford, no one wants to take advantage.

Real Madrid and other giants can't do it, let alone Atletico Madrid, a dark horse! )
