Chapter 325: Glass Man
The moment Torres scored, the entire Calderón stadium went into a frenzy. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Even the guest commentator, Antioch, seemed very excited.
"As I said at the beginning, Torres started very quickly, he was very dangerous in the box, and that moment was very similar to the opening attack, it was all the other players who pulled away and Torres started quickly and inserted into the box. ”
"The difference is that it was Kaka before, and now it's Dario Srna. ”
"In addition, Deco's side kick just now is also the key to the whole offensive process, and it is very timely. ”
"Real Madrid are in trouble right now. ”
"In the final analysis, superstars are also people, and they are all nervous, especially after losing so many games in the past two seasons, it is inevitable that there will be some psychological pressure and burden, on the other hand, Atletico Madrid looks more open. ”
"Makes sense. The on-site commentator affirmed, "After all, if they lose this game, they are still league champions." ”
"But now for Real Madrid, the most important thing is not to think about how to fight back, but to stabilize the position first, Atletico Madrid is very good at winning and chasing play, you have to be careful. ”
Antich's reminder was soon on the pitch.
Atletico Madrid, who scored the first goal, did not mean to take a breath, but wanted to take advantage of the victory to chase after it, and the defense line was even higher.
Simeone froze Zinedine Zidane, Dario Srna used the attack to suppress Robert Carlos, and Jankulovski on the left flank specifically targeted Figo, which made Real Madrid's attack difficult to unfold.
In particular, Zidane is limited, and it is difficult for the midfield of the Galaxy to hold the ball.
Atletico Madrid, on the other hand, played more unrestrained, especially after scoring first, and the players were more confident.
…………
…………
It was Woodgate's first Madrid derby and his first face against Atletico Madrid.
He was uneasy.
That goal just now caught him off guard.
It's so fast!
Not only are the players running fast, but they are faster at passing and receiving the ball with each other, and the kind of continuous cooperation in a tight area makes him dizzy.
It's like when Kaka and Deco happened just now, the first reaction in his mind was, will Kaka take the ball and make a strong breakthrough by himself?
Unexpectedly, Deco suddenly split the ball to the wing, and Dario Srna received the ball and forced Carlos's cross almost without thinking, which was completely unexpected by Woodgate.
Ask yourself if it wasn't Hierro who was keeping Torres on the line, but himself, and Woodgate felt he might have been even more upset.
In the few months since he arrived at Real Madrid, he has been through many teams, such as Deportivo La Coruna and Manchester United, but none of them have been able to maintain such a high tempo and maintain mastery of passing and possession like Atletico Madrid.
But he has also come to realise the crux of Real Madrid's problems.
That is, the superstars in the front court basically do not return to defense, and even their own defense zone is a symbolic false shot.
Just now Dario Srna stepped forward to participate in the attack, Zidane completely ignored the central midfield, which directly caused Carlos to have to face Dario Srna directly in a hurry, and then the opponent used his speed to force him to shake over.
It's the kind of thing that happens in other teams, but it's not so outrageous.
Just when Woodgate was palpitating, Hierro's shouts were heard nearby.
"Be careful, they're here again!"
Woodgate's heart jumped, and he looked up to see Atletico Madrid reorganise another attack.
Damn, it was so fast!
Looking up, I saw Kakara on the left flank to get the ball, and Makelele followed the Brazilian player every step of the way.
This made Woodgate feel relieved.
He knows Makelele's defensive ability, and he is relieved to have him in front.
But Kaka is also not a fuel-efficient lamp.
I only saw the Brazilian player receive a pass from the back, turn around and cut to the middle, which made Woodgate faintly uneasy.
Claude Makelele stuck to Kaka and Real Madrid's entire defence moved with Kaka's dribbling in.
But suddenly, Kaka accelerated, shook off Makelele, and picked up his right foot.
Woodgate was taken aback when he felt the ball was coming in his direction, but before he could make a move, Villa struck a diagonal stab and caught Kaka's pass before he did.
At this time, the Spanish striker was already in the big penalty area.
Woodgate didn't dare to be careless and quickly blocked between Villa and the goal.
One!
The cheers of the fans in the stands at Calderon Stadium could be heard, but Woodgate couldn't take care of it, and his mind was on Villa.
As soon as the Spanish striker received the ball, he made a fake move directly, but the ball was pushed towards the baseline.
Woodgate was not fooled and quickly followed.
But as soon as he caught up, Villa suddenly made another sharp stop, looking like he was going to dunk the ball to the middle.
This guy is left and right!
Woodgate was startled, and quickly followed the emergency stop and made a blocking action.
The continuous change of speed and direction in the high-speed state made Woodgate feel a faint stinging pain in his legs and knees, which made him panic and feel cold.
In August, before the start of the 0203 season, he suffered a knee injury in a warm-up game and had to undergo a second operation, which resulted in him missing the start of the season.
He clearly remembered the situation when he came off the field with a knee injury, and his knee was also tingling faintly.
Could it be that this is about to recur an old injury?
Thinking of this, Woodgate was stunned for a moment.
It was this stunned look that made Villa seize the opportunity, continue to dribble forward, and then hit the goal directly with his left foot.
Yes......
The whole Calderón stadium exclaimed!
Casillas reacted very quickly, swooping hard in front of goal and flying a single punch to keep Villa's left-footed volley out of the way.
But the ball didn't fly far and continued to land in the area where Villa and Woodgate were.
Villa reacted the fastest and chased after him as soon as possible.
Woodgate also reacted, quickly turned around and started to chase, but as soon as he turned around, he felt a sharp pain in his right leg, and the whole person couldn't help but sigh, lost his center of gravity and fell to the ground.
Villa quickly caught up with the ball, and without waiting for the ball to land, he volleyed directly with his right foot.
At this time, Hierro was too late and could not do anything.
Casillas fell to the ground, and the whip was beyond reach.
The ball hit Real Madrid's goal again!
The referee's whistle sounded again!
“goallllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll!!!!!!!”
"The second goal, it came too quickly, too suddenly!"
"Villa, it's a goal from David Villa!"
Kaka forced his way through and passed straight into the box, and after Villa's first shot was saved by Casillas, he hit the follow-up shot himself. ”
"It's 2-0, Atletico Madrid started the game like a bamboo. ”
"Oops, we saw Real Madrid's centre-back Woodgate fall in the box, holding his leg, it seems to be injured, could it be the injury he suffered when defending Villa just now?"
The England centre-back has quickly become a stalwart at the back since joining Real Madrid, and if he is injured, it will disrupt Real Madrid's overall plans. ”
"The referee was beckoning the team doctor to come in, and he also used a stretcher, which seemed to be seriously injured. ”
…………
…………
In the chairman's podium, Florentino's face was gloomy.
Everyone can see his embarrassment and shame at this moment.
Before the game, he was full of confidence, but when he really arrived at the game, it was only ten minutes before the opponent scored two goals in a row, and the main central defender was taken off the field, which was definitely a painful blow to Real Madrid.
Everyone can see the important role of Woodgate in the Real Madrid backline, he is injured, who can replace him?
But what made him feel even more like pins and needles was the discussion from all around.
"Could this bad boy be out again last night?"
"It's possible, otherwise why would your legs be weak?"
"As I said earlier, he's not a good guy. ”
Back at Leeds United, he was charged across the UK with Bowyer for beating an Asian student after getting drunk in a pub and later receiving a 100-hour community service order after he was charged with racial discrimination. ”
"In April last year, he first drove illegally and was suspended for half a year, and then he drank in a bar, got into a fight with a group of thugs, was beaten by the other party and broke his jaw, underwent surgery, took a break for a while, and was severely punished by Leeds United. ”
"He's also had problems with his legs, having been out for a month and a half with a hamstring injury at the beginning of '02, and then in August, he suffered a knee injury and missed surgery for the early part of the season. ”
"Coming into the squad at 18 and entering the national team at 19, he is really good, but so far he has never played a full season, he has been injured, he is a glass man. ”
"I don't know how Real Madrid would have thought of buying him. ”
"Isn't it?"
……
Florentino listened to the discussion around him, and squinted at Baldano and Putragno, his eyes as if they were about to breathe fire.
He hadn't paid close attention to it, and he didn't even know that Woodgate had such a past.
That's a bastard!
And from the dodging eyes of Baldano and Putragno, he knew very well that these arguments were true.
In other words, the whole Real Madrid has high hopes for a glass man with frequent injuries.
"When you get back, you'll have to give me a reasonable explanation!" Florentino said in a deep voice.
His voice was not loud, only Baldano and Butragueno could hear, but it made both of them almost desperate.
In the stadium, the team doctor had already made a gesture to Bosque that Woodgate could not continue to play, and Bosque also made immediate adjustments, arranging for teenager Pavon to start and replace Woodgate as the team's central defender.
It is clear that Bosque's idea is to continue with Elgra and Makelele as a back pair to protect the team's defence.
But Atletico Madrid didn't have the slightest mercy.
After Woodgate came off injured, the Sheets suspended their attack, but it didn't take long for Atletico Madrid to organize another wave of attacks, which made Real Madrid very embarrassed.
Although the Galaxy Battleship was star-studded in the frontcourt, it had no possession, and was suppressed in its own half, unable to play a role at all, and even in the first half an hour, there was not even a threatening shot on goal, just blindly passive defense.
But if you keep it for a long time, you will lose it...... (To be continued.) )
