174 chapter 174
"I heard he was a man of the hour. So says Antoine Griezmann. Fran doesn't take this kind of pediatric provocation to heart, but he always tends to give people a sense of weakness when he doesn't talk back.
- Actually, I wanted to say it a long time ago, Fran's temper has really improved a lot in the past two years, and someone in the early years was so provocative that Fran went up directly.
- Alas, what can I do if I like both the little lattice and Franlan? Is the lattice still a child, why do you want to come up like this and scold Fran, is it unnecessary?
- Isn't it just a child, back then, you heard that he was a man of the year back then, and you were just a little player when he was a man of the hour, can you respect your predecessors?
Needless to say, although Griezmann didn't say anything excessive, when it came to pulling hatred, it was rare to blow up their coach Simeone.
Francisco Alvarez, he was a man of the day, he was the number one defender in football, not one of the strongest. Griezmann's words are not wrong, after all, he is Chinese New Year's Eve five years old today, and he has already said goodbye to the peak.
"Do you have any confidence in the Champions League final?" asked the reporter when he finally blocked Fran, although Fran felt that this question was a bit silly in his heart, but he still made a fist and rushed forward in front of the camera, and bared his big white teeth in order to enhance his credibility, "Champion!"
It was originally a simple action, but subsequent developments have made it any less simple. Eevee's latest Twitter update shows a shark grin and a mouthful of big white teeth, accompanied by gestures and the words 'come on', which is clearly a parody of Fran's actions when he is interviewed.
Then there were Raul, Guti, Cassie, from Real Madrid's veterans to the fans who spontaneously participated in the event, and some neutral fans seemed to find the action interesting and played along. Even Mourinho came to join in the fun, but the action of sticking out a mouthful of big white teeth really did not fit the style of Mr. Coach, and the photo showed his two small dimples.
For the Champions League final, the Meilingers suddenly found themselves more and more confident, not because they couldn't look down on Atletico Madrid as an opponent, in fact, Real Madrid sometimes had to cry and chirp to admit that they were 'cousins', where is the condition to look down on them?
That's right, he never disappoints.
On the eve of the Champions League final, Ramos went to bed early on the night spent in Milan, but Forlan lay in bed staring at the ceiling for a long time without sleep. He knew he needed to sleep well to have enough energy, and he knew that he had sleeping pills in the side pocket of his backpack, but in the end he was just a little irritated but still walked into the bathroom lightly.
Fran looked at himself in the mirror and frowned, carefully pulling his hair to see a lot of white hair, wrapped a few in paper and threw them in the trash, and found that all of them were really impossible to achieve bald dreams.
Fran, who was lying back on the bed, took out his mobile phone and flipped through the messages of encouragement sent to him by all his friends before, but the more he looked at it, the more sober he became, and the whole person entered a state of complete readiness, and he was so tense that he couldn't do it.
He doesn't care about this Champions League trophy or not, and what he said before is all bragging.
In the end, he quietly got up and gave himself a very small dose of sleeping pills, I don't know if it was the psychological effect or the effect of the drug, this time he quickly fell asleep.
When Fran opened his eyes the next day, Ramos had already begun to clean up his hair, and Fran sat up with sleepy eyes, "What time is it, why did you get up so early?" Ramos was full of energy, "If you go to bed early, you will wake up early." "It's completely different from Fran, the guy who ended up sleeping on sleeping pills.
This season's Champions League final was played at Milan's San Siro Stadium, with the Madrid duo competing for the European crown for the second time in three years. It's not just the club and the players making history, it's making history for the manager. Zinedine Zidane is expected to become the seventh man to win the trophy as a player and manager, with Simeone aiming to become the first Argentine coach to win the Champions League.
The starting line-ups of the two teams have not changed much when they meet in the league, with Real Madrid suffering from Raphael Varane's injury and the undisputed Fran Ramos combination at centre-back. Opposite Real Madrid's 433, Atletico Madrid's 442 squad is headed by Antoine Griezmann and Fernando Torres at the top of the forward line.
Baresi and Zanetti, the most decorated players of Milan's two teams, escorted the Champions League into the stadium, and Forlan and Atletico Madrid's captain Gabi led the team into the stadium, and the game officially began.
Real Madrid's midfield, which won the ball first, was deployed by Luka Modric, with Casemiro next to him giving the ball a spot and defending accordingly. The San Siro Stadium was watched by tens of thousands of people on the night. Kroos received the ball and attacked, the football was stuffed into the penalty area, and it was Benzema who appeared there, Benzema picked up a pass, and Ronaldo, who received the ball, fired a left-footed half-volley in front of goal, but it was blocked by Oblak's left foot.
Atletico Madrid's chances, both teams obviously did not intend to waste the opening game on the midfield and go straight to the game. Koke, who had the ball, was under the line with Saul, and Griezmann, who was hidden among the players, was ready to attack, and Koké directly moved to the sideline, but unfortunately the ball slipped out of bounds before Griezmann received it. Carvajal quickly took the throw-in, Forlan and Griezmann ran at the same time, and Forlan, who was close to him, first arrived first and then empirically blocked Griezmann's direction with his back and ran to the midfield with the ball.
This is the first time that Forlan and Griezmann have been attacking and defending each other in this game, and Torres rushed up while getting rid of Griezmann, and he planned to use his body to knock away Forlan, intercept the football and hit it directly back into the Real Madrid penalty area, and catch the opponent off guard. He was menacing, and Fran, who looked down, didn't seem to notice his arrival, but it was just that the idea of dispatching the pass flashed in his mind, and he stopped the football as if he was stunned, and the next second ushered in the impact of the opponent.
Passing the ball is certainly a good option, but it will only make Atletico Madrid's physical advantage more rampant, and if they want to suppress their arrogance, they will have to beat their opponents on the ability that they are most proud of.
This is a truth that he has learned from many people and has experienced many times.
When the two people collide without accident, Fran in the shot is like a wall and does not move, but Torres unconsciously hides his expression and seems to be in pain. After suffering the impact, Forlan didn't even give Torres the grinning afterglow, and brought the football back up without changing his face, focusing too much on wreaking havoc on the opponent, and it was easy to lose his rhythm.
Forlan jokingly shook off Torres and headed straight for midfield with the ball, and the deterioration of physicality and fitness corresponded to the rationality of years of experience and approach.
As the opponent who plays the most games against Real Madrid every season besides Barcelona, the senior management, managers, players, and fans of the club Atletico Madrid are all familiar with Forlan. As Griezmann said, in the turbulent period, any Real Madrid opponent saw Forlan on the pitch as if he had a goal with him, and at that time people said that he was steely, and the unbelieving Costa proved that this was a fallacy, but what could it be?
Barcelona always have the expectation of pulling him off the altar in addition to his teammates and opponents, and Atletico Madrid, to be honest, have always been worried about Forlan.
Simeone's emotional mobilization instilled a lot of ideas in Griezmann before the game, and he almost said to Griezmann bluntly, "The ball can not be scored, Forlan must die". Antoine Griezmann also believes that this is the best chance to prove himself, and this is the last chance, and with a win over Francisco Alvarez, he could overtake Neymar as the new striker of La Liga.
When Forlan watched Griezmann's brow tighten again after blocking Saul's through ball again, he sensed that the Atletico kid was particularly anxious about the game, not so much in scoring as in competition with himself. Simeone, on the sidelines, watched everything with his hands in his pockets, and he felt that Griezmann's attitude was right or not, and he didn't know if Fran was right, but Fran just felt that the intention was obvious and the loophole was obvious.
Griezmann, who didn't know that Forlan was thinking about giving himself a set, was a little angry when he was tackled by Forlan and referee Clattenburg only warned him. But reason reminded him that he was only signaling to the referee rather than arguing, and after the rebuttal was ineffective, Griezmann looked back just in time to see Fran who was looking at the sky and adjusting the captain's armband. Antoine Griezmann, a Frenchman, doesn't really have any grudge against Real Madrid, but at this moment he really wants to beat him completely.
But no matter how strong Antoine Griezmann's goal is, it was Real Madrid who scored first, and more specifically Real Madrid's Sergio Ramos. With Kroos taking a free-kick, Bale nodded in front of his back and Ramos swept the ball into the back of the net before Oblak cleared the ball. The score was 1-0 in the first half, and the joy that belonged to Real Madrid was maintained until half-time.
Real Madrid, who have a one-goal lead in the dressing room, know that they can't easily relax in the face of Atletico Madrid, and the assistant coach showed Zidane the half-time statistics of both sides, and the performance of Atletico Madrid's two strikers was very different, Griezmann touched the ball 48 times in the first half, while Torres, who was also a striker, only touched the ball 17 times, which is less than half of the average number of times that Atletico Madrid's non-goalkeeper players averaged. In fact, when the pre-match starting line-up was revealed, there was speculation about Torres' ability to do it, and it seems that the long bench has indeed made the former Atletico Madrid striker lose his edge.
Fran thought about Griezmann's state, bowed his head and smiled without saying a word.
At the start of the second half, Antoine Griezmann crossed diagonally from the right side of the penalty area, Torres collided with Carvajal and fell to the ground when he took the ball with his back, and Clattenburg immediately blew the whistle and awarded a penalty. As the goalkeeper, Keylor Navas was about to protest, but Forlan stopped Navas and Clattenburg to appeal on his behalf. The referee, who wouldn't change the verdict, waved his hand to disperse, and Fran turned back and shook his head at Navas.
It was Griezmann who took the penalty at Atletico Madrid, and Griezmann, who was standing in front of the penalty spot, took a deep breath and unconsciously swept his eyes over Forlan, who was in a particularly relaxed state next to him, and felt more pressure. He tried to tell himself to calm down, but Navas couldn't watch the constant movement in front of goal, and when the referee's whistle blew, Griezmann's hastily kicked penalty bounced off the post and bounced back into the box. It was Forlan who received the ball first, and in Griezmann's opinion, as if he decided that he could not score the penalty, Forlan did not choose to rush with his big foot, but pulled the ball straight down.
However, he didn't make an exaggerated long run, passing the ball to the feet of Luka Modric who was already in position at half-time, and then returned uneventfully. The game was once again in a tense rhythm and Antoine Griezmann was forced to get back into action before he could recover from the confusion of missing his penalty.
Referees on both sides began to take advantage of the dead-ball opportunity to substitute players, watching Isco and Vazquez replace Kroos and Benzema, making it unclear whether Zidane really believes in the philosophy of luck players. Simeone on the sidelines motioned for Antoine Griezmann to calm down, but that was easier said than done.
The next time Griezmann came back with the ball, Forlan, who has been accustomed to card prediction recently, rarely blocked him directly in front of him for one-on-one marking. Griezmann is doing tricks with great intentions, but Forlan is very experienced in dealing with these fancy moves, and can detect them from the sudden changes in sight, shoulders and even rhythm, in fact, rather than choosing these, it is better to rely on speed and body like Messi at the beginning, but Griezmann no longer has the original sense.
"I hear you think I was a man of the show?" said Fran as he stabbed the ball out of the gap at his feet as Griezmann tried to overtake him sideways, and Ramos was eyeing him in the open space over there. Griezmann, who had conceded the goal, staggered a little on his front foot, and before he could rejoice that he had not fallen to the ground, he heard Fran speak quietly, who had not left since intercepting the ball.
"I'm so sorry little ghost, I'm going to be a fucking man of the year until I die. ”
The author has something to say: embarrassed ... The game is written and written and written too much...
Ahh
Torres and Griezmann's Champions League final statistics are correct, Toniu seems to have only touched the ball in her early 30s after 90 minutes of the game, and the grid became another person who took the penalty after Ben. 166 Reading Network
