Chapter 19: Atletico are fierce

It was the visitors Atletico Madrid who scored the first goal. Although it was a long-range shot that missed the frame, it showed their determination to win without fear of the home team.

"It's not a good game. Yan Feng pondered silently. It was only the first time he defended against his opponent's attack, and he already felt a strong fighting spirit and good form from his opponent.

In previous encounters, when Yan Feng faced Griezmann, he often took advantage of his body to take advantage of it. But this time, it seems that these opponents involved in the attack are very engaged and have a brisk pace. And more importantly, the opponent is very strong.

In the game of football, in addition to the real strength, the strength of the momentum often affects the process and result of the game.

As a long-term third in La Liga, there is no doubt about the strength of Atletico Madrid to sit firmly in this position. Even if the Granada team has now changed its face and its strength has risen a notch, it does not have an overwhelming advantage. In fact, when Real Madrid or Barcelona face Atletico Madrid, no one dares to say that they will definitely win.

Today's Atletico Madrid team is also very pragmatic, and they have chosen a more balanced 4231 team to play away. As soon as they couldn't strike, they immediately quickly retreated.

By the time goalkeeper Ochoa had just set the ball up, Atletico Madrid had already taken up all their defensive positions.

Ochoa opted to kick the ball to the defender. Since Luka Modric's arrival, he has rarely chosen to go big.

Defender Ingason quickly kicked the ball to Yan Feng, and Yan Feng hesitated after observing the surroundings, but still chose to hand the ball to Modric to deal with.

Amid the chanting of the fans, Modric once again took the ball in stride. After handling the ball, he continued to move forward.

Lin Fan stepped forward quickly again to participate in the attack, and Yan Feng could only choose to delay and protect again when he saw this.

Granada still wanted to be as patient as they had been before, but this time, Atletico Madrid suddenly stepped up and pressed very firmly.

The opponent's sudden increase in the tempo increased the psychological pressure on the Granada team. And the more serious impact is the ruthlessness of Atletico Madrid's defense.

When Modric stepped forward for the second touch, he was swept down by Patel behind him before he could even stop the ball.

Patel made the first foul, but he wasn't penalized for it. And the benefit of a foul is to disrupt the offensive organization of the Granada team.

"They're going to kick the Magic Flute. Seeing this scene, Yan Feng frowned, and immediately realized that this was the Atletico Madrid team deliberately targeting Modric. Now everyone knows that Modric is the heart of Granada's attack. If you can limit his play, it will definitely affect the attack of the Granada team. Not much at the beginning of the game, there were fouls that were not necessary. The purpose is already very obvious.

Yan Feng found out about the purpose of Atletico Madrid, but he didn't say anything to Modric. He felt that this situation must have been commonplace for Modric. The latter certainly has a solution to this situation.

But soon, Yan Feng found that he was thinking too simply. Modric does have enough experience to deal with the situation. The problem is that Atletico Madrid's ferocious defence isn't just against Modric. It's Atletico Madrid who are fierce in defence against anyone. It can even be said to be brutal.

Granada had just kicked off to re-attack, and soon Anthony Martial was brought down on the wing. A direct and brutal dash sent Martial rolling several times.

"I'll copy it, what are they trying to do?" After seeing that the opponent's movements were very rude, Yan Feng began to be a little dissatisfied. He immediately complained to the referee who blew the foul. "The referee asks you to pay attention to their movements, they are very rude. ”

After the referee glanced at Yan Feng, he didn't say much.

Yan Feng didn't care when he saw that the referee didn't say anything, the main purpose of his complaint to the referee was to exert pressure. Seeing that Martial quickly got up on his own, Yan Feng dispelled the idea of stepping forward to ask.

Two fouls in a row made everyone see the ferocious attitude of Atletico Madrid today. This gave Granada's frontcourt players an extra eye when attacking.

Under the ferocious defense of Atletico Madrid, Granada's attack was once again in vain.

It was Atletico Madrid's turn to attack, and Granada were equally quick to get into a defensive position. AtlΓ©tico Madrid organized a wave of attacks, but again it was ineffective.

The attack and defense were reversed, but soon, the offensive organization of the Granada team was damaged. Modric was knocked forward before the ball reached his feet.

This time, it was not Patel who attacked Modric, but Gabi.

Yan Feng raised three fingers to complain to the referee, but the referee again said nothing. This made Yan Feng very dissatisfied. But there is no way.

Seeing that Modric was targeted, after restarting the ball, his teammates did not give him the ball to organize. Lin Fan stood up to organize, but as soon as he got the ball, he suffered a very strong impact. Lin Fan stumbled and finally passed it to Mahrez.

Mahrez came on his own, but quickly conceded the ball under the opponent's rough defence.

After conceding the goal, Mahrez was unhappy and complained to the referee that his opponent was acting unfriendly when defending him.

Atletico Madrid didn't care what Mahrez's expression was, and launched a counterattack directly.

This time, Granada's frontcourt players were unable to return in time, and Atletico Madrid quickly crossed the halfway line. The Granada team is just the back line and Yan Feng in front.

Yan Feng stepped forward to block it as soon as possible, but this time the Atletico Madrid team invested a lot of troops, and only used the ball to make Yan Feng's defense fruitless.

After a few passes, Griezmann took the ball straight to face the Lomban defence. Against Lumban, Griezmann confidently made a strong assault. The tall but not fast Lumban can't defend himself against the nimble and fast Griezmann.

almost let Griezmann burst into the penalty area to face the goalkeeper, but fortunately, Yan Feng arrived in time, so Griezmann had to hit the goal early. The latter hurriedly hit the door, allowing Ochoa to stop.

Corner kick opportunity for Atletico Madrid. However, the Granada team, who were fully defensive, did not allow Atletico Madrid to take their chances.

Regaining possession, Granada was much more cautious in attacking this time. However, despite deliberately avoiding Atletico Madrid's ferocious interception, Modric was kicked down by Correa after completing a one-two with Mahrez on the wing.

"I'll copy it!" This time, Yan Feng couldn't do it, so he rushed directly towards Korea. This foul is a bit excessive, and the soles are shining.

"Fa Q, your mother, do you want to abolish him?" Yan Feng angrily scolded Korea, and when he scolded, he didn't squirt in the latter's face.

"What do you want? Chinan?" Korea, who was sprayed with saliva, did not show weakness, and looked at Yan Feng with a fierce expression. Even his face was on Yan Feng's face.

"Do you believe it, I abolished you?" Yan Feng leaned forward.

"SHIT, CHINKEES, WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?" SAID KOREA.

Seeing that Yan Feng and Korea had discovered the top cow, the others on both sides rushed over one after another, pointing at each other and spraying.

"Madrid guys, are you underwhelmed~~~"

"Shut up, you redneck~~~"

The referee quickly came over and intervened in the middle, which prevented the situation from developing further.

Seeing that the referee was coming, Yan Feng stopped making trouble. If you make too much trouble, it's not good.

"The Magic Flute. Are you alright?" Yan Feng turned his head and asked Modric, who was still sitting on the ground. Since Modric came to the team, after getting acquainted, Yan Feng followed the domestic fans and called him the Magic Flute.

At first, Modric was very strange why Yan Feng called him that, and thought that Yan Feng was called wrong several times and wanted to teach Yan Feng the correct name. And after Yan Feng explained the origin of the magic flute, Modric readily accepted Yan Feng's name.

"Yan, thank you. It shouldn't be a big deal. It's a hard wound. Modric thanked. He understood that Yan Feng was rushing over to stand up for him.

"That's good. Yan Feng stretched out his hand to Modric.

"Thank you. Modric put his hand on it.

After Yan Feng pulled Modric up, he said, "Magic Flute, be careful. They are deliberately targeting you. Be careful not to get hurt by them. ”

"Hmm. I know. Modric's brow furrowed.

Yan Feng didn't continue to say anything. At this point, the referee called him over and asked him to join Correa in his oral mediation.

Yan Feng glared coldly at Korea on the side, and after seeing that the referee had no other words after speaking, he couldn't help but speak: "Referee, shouldn't you give him a card?"

"You should know that he just showed off his shoes. ”

The referee frowned, but still had no intention of playing Correa's card. "How to judge, I have something on my mind. Now, you give me back and get ready to play again. ”

"Huh. Yan Feng sneered helplessly, and then had to shake his head and walk away.

"It's not a card. That's big enough. If you want to be violent, who wouldn't?" Yan Feng thought to himself as he walked.

After a skirmish, the game resumed. But when Atletico Madrid didn't take the funeral, the action was still big. In the end, the Granada team's offensive failed under the opponent's big move defense.

Back defensively, in the face of Atletico Madrid's attack, this time, the Granada team did not hold their feet either. The defensive action also began to get bigger.

This action increases, and the anger of both sides can no longer be suppressed. The game began to heat up, and the confrontation began to become more and more intense.

In football, the fierce game is often not accompanied by a wonderful performance. It's more about making the game less fluid and getting into a vicious spiral of fouls.

The scene of people turning on their backs began to appear constantly, and the efficiency of the attack became less and less. Unconsciously, the two sides became a little vindictive.

"Come on, Granada, these guys!" Atletico Madrid's ferocious actions also provoked discontent among the home fans.

The cheering of the fans intensified the fierce confrontation on the field.

"Beep!"

"Beep!"

β€œ```”

The whistle kept blowing, which made the referee start to break out in a cold sweat.

"Beep~Beep~~" After the referee blew a long whistle, he looked around the court with some humility.

"What, the game is over?" Yan Feng was stunned when he heard the whistle that was different from the foul. The first half was over so quickly, and he couldn't even react.

"Why is the first half over?" Yan Feng couldn't help but look up at the screen on the sidelines. The screen does show the end of the first 45 minutes of play. The score is 0:0.

Yan Feng began to think back to all the previous competitions. Since that confrontation with Correa, it seems that the two sides have been caught in a foul on each other.

Yan Feng found that apart from the various foul scenes, there were no other wonderful offensive or cooperative pictures in his mind.

"I'll copy it. Yan Feng felt as if his head was a little hot.

Yan Feng looked down at the captain's armband on his left arm, and his brows furrowed. It seems that he has been a little derelict in his duties.

After returning to the locker room, Yan Feng saw that Pirlo's face was not very good. It looked like he wasn't happy with the first half.

"Damn, these Atletico Madrid guys, really killed them. ”

"What the hell! I've just been hit a few times. ”

"I secretly gave Kokai a look. It's nice to have him'''''

β€œ``````”

Yan Feng saw that many of his teammates had gloomy on their faces, and their mouths were full of gunpowder from time to time.

Pirlo's face was cold, and he slammed on the table.

"Bang Bang~"

The crowd looked at Pirlo in amazement.

Pirlo glanced at the crowd and spoke in a low voice. "The people at Atletico are very rough, dirty and irritating!"

"Yes. It's so dirty. "Someone from the squad deserves to be there.

"I was annoyed by the opponent's performance. But I'm not happy with your performance. I'm a little angry. Pirlo said with an unkind face.

Hearing the latter sentence, everyone should not follow the mouth.

"Do you know why I'm angry?" Pirlo glanced at the players, and those who were swept by him couldn't help but bow their heads.

"Because you have been brought into rhythm by your opponents, and they have been brought into a violent trap. You've lost your rhythm. ”

"What are our strengths? Smooth fit, fast ground penetration. Now tell me, how many times did you organize such tactics in the first half?"

Pirlo's question stopped everyone. Because when you think about it, you really haven't kicked out your own characteristics.

Listening to Pirlo, Yan Feng naturally signaled the problem. As the captain, he has a responsibility to stand up.

"I'm sorry, sir. In the first half, I didn't do my duty as captain. This is my responsibility. ”

Pirlo nodded when he saw Yan Feng, the captain, standing up and apologizing. said that he accepted Yan Feng's confession.

Pirlo glanced at the crowd again, then spoke slowly. "The responsibility for the first half is not the captain's alone. All of you have a responsibility. In the second half, I didn't want people to continue to be led by the opposition. ”

"I don't want to see it again. I just want to see people calmly deal with their brutality, and then beat them up with a masterful tactical combination. Break through their defences and score their goals!"

"Yes. The coach was right. Yan Feng should agree.

"I hope everyone can do it. Now, I'll lay out the tactics~~~"
