Chapter 86: The National Derby (4)

There is not much difference between people, even Real Madrid, even if the players of Real Madrid are too professional to be professional, they are no different from the players of other weak teams at this moment. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Mourinho's roar did not pull the Real Madrid players back from their low morale, and many people did not wake up immediately, but fell into contradictions, not knowing what to do next.

When the ball was restarted, the Real Madrid players were still fighting, Zhang Yuan's heart was very anxious, seeing the team working so hard, he really wanted to snatch the ball from Barcelona from the possession.

He really regarded himself as a defensive player, from top to bottom, running all over the field, it was a hard grab, but unfortunately there was no tacit understanding of teammates, the work he did was useless, in the 25th minute, after Zhang Yuan failed to grab the ball, he pulled Messi to the ground, and the referee Gonzalez gave him a verbal warning, which was the first time he got a warning in this game.

Zhang Yuan's episode has just passed, in the 31st minute, Real Madrid got a chance to play the ball on the sideline, who knew that Guardiola made a bad one at this time, he hugged the football, commanded his players to stand and defend, and was stunned not to give the ball to the red-eyed Ronaldo, Ronaldo asked for football unsuccessfully, and pushed Guardiola in anger.

Ronaldo's move caused strong dissatisfaction among the Barcelona players, and the players on both sides complained to the referee about the theory of mutual theory.

Barcelona goalkeeper Valdés rushed the fastest, he ran past and Ronaldo top the bull, there are two people to fight the posture, Ronaldo is not to be outdone, the two people have a lot of verbal conflicts in the mouth, if it is not for the teammates to pull me, I am afraid that the two of them are really going to stage a full martial arts.

In the end, Gonzalez used a yellow card to settle the conflict, but after this clash, the Real Madrid players finally behaved a little more normal and began to regain a little bit of vitality.

Despite being at a disadvantage on the pitch, Barcelona were still able to create some chances, but they couldn't find the back of the net against Real Madrid, and of course Casillas had a lot to blame for this, making at least two saves to save the goal.

Jose Mourinho turned a blind eye to this clash in the dugout, his mind was already thinking about what to do in the second half?!

Mesut Ozil's defensive ability is weak, and the midfield composed of him, Alonso and Khedira cannot form an effective interception of Barcelona's midfield, the opponent's possession is too skillful, and Ozil's role in it is too small.

In the pre-match period, in fact, many media predicted that Mourinho could play three defensive midfielders, but Mourinho did not go as they wanted, but went to Ozil, and now it seems that this is not a good move.

However, the other defenders in the midfield, Mourinho, did not trust him, and he also had some luck, and as a result, the situation is like this, and there may be nothing wrong with playing in defensive midfield.

At the end of the first half, Real Madrid fell behind Barcelona 0:2, and Mourinho finally realized more clearly that his defensive transformation of Real Madrid was not so successful, and the reason was his own inner conflict, of course, the root of this contradiction was because this is Real Madrid.

What he created is Real Madrid, not Chelsea, Real Madrid needs the main attack instead of the main defense, the balance of attack and defense is a joke, Real Madrid is still top-heavy and shallow.

At half-time, Mourinho no longer expects the team to be able to pull the score back, and this time he also realized that the current Real Madrid and Barcelona attack has no good fruit to eat, and if the attack does not focus on defense, the score will not be so easy to pull back.

He thinks about it or just keeps 0:2, he doesn't want to be embarrassed, it's not a shame to lose two goals to Barcelona, but if it really loses more, it's quite embarrassing.

Mourinho has a lot of research on Barcelona, Real Madrid's style of play is completely different from Barcelona, Barcelona is looking for the opponent's loopholes through passing and moving movements, and Real Madrid relies on the hearty and fast-paced attack in the front.

Barcelona's high pressing is very high, but Real Madrid does not rely on high pressing to force the opponent to make mistakes.

Jose Mourinho had previously said: "If we play like Barcelona, then we can't even see their goal. We need to put pressure up front first, but we can't concede in midfield. Because once they are successful, then Messi, Pedro, Iniesta and others can threaten our goal with three or two strikes. Barcelona like to play against them, and if they do, they will fall into their trap. In order not to make them steal when you have just passed, you have to move the ball to the front court as quickly as possible and catch them off guard. Barca's defence starts from the forward line, they put a lot of pressure on their opponents, and once they get the ball, they go straight to the yellow dragon. A mispossession error, a passing or receiving error, will give them the opportunity to attack quickly. But if you use long balls, Barcelona will have a lot of problems!"

But as a result, Real Madrid didn't do it like this today, Mourinho didn't trust Benzema's ability to grab points, of course, the team also has a Ronaldo whose ability to compete for the top is still good, the problem is that he is on the side, even if he is in the middle, the opponent's focus is on him, and he can't easily hold the ball.

Speaking of which, a general problem is that there are too few troops invested in the front, Zhang Yuan is not a winger but a full-back, tired of defending in the first half.

But at halftime, Mourinho decided to change his strategy and plan, he was not ready to play a front three, Benzema disappointed him, he decided to push Zhang Yuan to the front line and Ronaldo as a partner, replace Ozil with Las Diarra, and replace Benzema with Di Maria.

Ronaldo returned to the left forward position, Di Maria moved on the right side, Ronaldo is not playing as a pure winger, more like a second striker, with a large range of activities, Di Maria is not a striker, but continues to move on the side to increase breakthroughs.

Let Zhang Yuan go to the front to the center, the purpose is to attract the opponent's defensive strength and create greater opportunities for Ronaldo, the current gap between Benzema and Zhang Yuan is very large, Barcelona was very easy in the first half when defending Zhang Yuan, because Zhang Yuan himself did not have many opportunities to get the ball.

This is also a small mistake in Mourinho's arrangement, players like Zhang Yuan still have to be in front to pose a threat to the opponent, the distance is too far, even if he gets the ball, he can't run so far away, sometimes a long run still needs a little luck and timing.

Now directly put Zhang Yuan to the front, Zhang Yuan's ability to compete for the top is not strong, but there are too many demagogic moves when dealing with the ball, with shooting ability and speed, it is impossible for the opponent to stop him from paying a lot of attention.

If they don't pay attention, then they will definitely suffer.

Real Madrid changed formations at the beginning of the second half, and the current formation is 433, but it is not 433, which is a very strange formation.

"In the second half, you don't care about the defensive load, I only give you the goal to put pressure on the Barcelona centre-backs and then score!" Mourinho told Zhang Yuaner at half-time.

Zhang Yuan nodded, he played very aggrieved in the first half, and in the second half, Mourinho opened up and pushed him to the front, this position is the position that Zhang Yuan likes very much, although Zhang Yuan's degree of freedom will not be as high as he imagined, but it is good enough.

Zhang Yuan's heart is alive at this time, there is still a chance, just two goals, as long as we score early, we will definitely have a chance to equalize.

Mourinho did not give Zhang Yuan and Ronaldo an explanation for arranging a change, but before the game restarted, Zhang Yuan found Ronaldo, covered his mouth and said to Ronaldo's ear: "In the second half, the two of us should get closer, and we should change positions with each other more, so that they can't be familiar with one person!"

"Okay, it's just that I've been figured out by them! you might be better!" Ronaldo agreed.

In football games, there are often substitute odd soldiers, this is not because the energy of the strange soldiers is necessarily great, the head coach often makes substitutions for many purposes, and some of them are to change the opponent's defensive rhythm.

The same is true for the players on the court to switch positions with each other, as a center forward, there will generally be a special person to mark, but each player's habits of receiving the ball and handling the ball are not the same, and the defensive players may often have an inertial thinking because of the opponent in the defense, and the exchange of positions has such a purpose, disrupting the rhythm of the defensive players.

It doesn't work often, but sometimes it works well, because even the slightest mistake by a centre-back can make a big mistake. (To be continued.) )
