Chapter 15: Hold your head high

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter! Let's get it back! ”

After conceding the goal, there were applause and encouraging voices from Blackburn's backfield, and Blackburn was still more relaxed after taking the lead by one goal. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Real Madrid go on the attack......

Compared with Blackburn's slightly wide open attack, Real Madrid's attack is obviously much more organized, at least, they know how to cooperate better, and the passing skills are much better, with a few simple passes, Real Madrid pushed the ball to Blackburn's half and handed the ball to the side!

This game is destined to become Baines's famous battle, Cristiano Ronaldo, who broke through Baines on the side and failed again, had to pass the ball again, and the football transitioned to the feet of the unmarked Kaka!

Cambiaso at the edge of the penalty area quickly stepped forward to press Kaka as fast as he could, however, although the speed of his attack this time made Lineker in the commentary department admire, although his pressing action was like a textbook standard, but just a simple diagonal pass, breaking the defense, it became so simple.

As Cambiasso approached, Kaka's pass arrived just in time for Benzema, who was in front of him, and after shaking off Cech, the ball was pushed into the net.

1:1!

Real Madrid equalised just 13 minutes after Thiago Silva opened the scoring and the two teams were back on the same page.

The game went on, and then Real Madrid began to attack with a steady burst of energy, while Blackburn could only retreat into their own half, only to take advantage of the quick counter-attack, and frequently test Casillas with long-range shots and wide balls.

In the 33rd minute, McCone broke through and passed the ball, and Ronaldo barely volleyed wide of the goal from outside the edge of the box on the right side.

In the 38th minute, Benzema's header was crossed, and Kaka's shot from the left side of the box hit Thiago Silva's thigh and deflected into the far corner, before Marcelo's corner was directly confiscated by Cech.

In the 40th minute, Cristiano Ronaldo passed the ball after an unsuccessful breakthrough on the wing, and Sneijder's through ball immediately saw the opportunity to allow Raul to shoot hard from 25 yards in the middle, but unfortunately the angle of the shot was too high and was confiscated by Cech.

Two minutes later, Cristiano Ronaldo won a well-placed free-kick for Real Madrid, but Ronaldo's free-kick from 30 yards down the middle went straight over the woodwork.

In the 45th minute, Raul crossed again from the left, and Kaka's volley from 10 yards was saved by Cech. Real Madrid's ensuing corner was headed out of the box by a returning Torres, and the referee blew the whistle for the end of the first half.

Madrid and Blackburn entered the break with a score of 1-1, and the two teams were evenly matched in the first half, with Real Madrid having more time on goal and possession, but Blackburn's ability to take advantage of their chances was slightly better, but there was not much time left for Real Madrid.

At the end of the break, Real Madrid took the lead in the second half, and as soon as the kick-off was trying to attack from the left side of Blackburn, McCone obviously wanted to look for opportunities from the side of Baines's defense, and received a pass from Ronaldo on the left side near the sideline of the penalty area, and immediately made a few feints to try to get past Baines.

Baines was not fooled, he held his position tightly, saw that the opponent wanted to cut inside, quickly squeezed up, pressed the opponent, hooked the football, and defused the first wave of Real Madrid's attack.

"What a beautiful defense! Today's Baines has made Blackburn and England fans forget about Ashley Cole! Lineker can't help but praise the mad Bynes in today's state, and in fact, Bynes deserves that evaluation.

Real Madrid's players hurriedly returned to the defense, and Diarra was already quickly chasing Baines.

Baines took two steps with the ball before Diarra came over, and before the opponent arrived, a through pass sent the ball through the players in the Real Madrid midfield and accurately to the feet of Bale, who had already cut inside.

At this time, Real Madrid was still on hold, and Blackburn's first wave of attacks had already arrived.

After Torres saw Baines break the ball, he was like an arrow off the string, the first to rush to the opponent's half, and threw the chasing Real Madrid players far away from more than ten meters, and got Bale's pass in front of the big penalty area, and there were only 2 Real Madrid defenders in front of him.

"Stop him!"

"Break the ball, break the ball!"

"Kill him!"

Seeing Torres dribbling into the penalty area, the entire Bernabeu stadium resounded with the shouts of one of the few but violent Real Madrid fans.

Real Madrid's defenders only had two central defenders, Ramos and Carvalho, in the penalty area, saw Torres come in, Ramos rushed forward to block, and Carvalho landed tightly in front of the goal, together with goalkeeper Casillas, to prevent Torres from potentially bursting into the box.

Torres saw Ramos coming, and instead of stopping and waiting for Bale to catch up, Torres cut to the right and took a step further on his already fast pace.

Ramos saw that Torres had already reached the position where he was about to enter the penalty area with 2 more steps, how dare he let Torres burst in with the ball again, and hurriedly stepped forward to intercept, ready to use his body to block the route that Torres broke through, even if it was to give Blackburn a free kick in a very good position.

With two metres to go, Torres slowed down a little, ran towards the ball in small steps, and after a slight adjustment, he supported his right foot before Ramos could run over, twisting his body and swinging his left leg quickly.

There was a muffled "pop", and Torres let out a low roar "Get in!" The calf swept hard into the underside of the falling ball, was flipped in mid-air, and flew around the left side of Ramos towards the goal.

The ball was like a curved banana, not in much arc, but extremely fast, going around Ramos and heading straight for the far corner of the goal.

Torres's twisted body, fully stretched thighs, swinging arms backwards, all this before it could be retracted, the football had already flown in front of the goal.

Casillas was shocked when he saw the football coming from the right side of Ramos, because his attention just now was on the command Carvalho, and he saw that Ramos was about to block Torres, and he didn't expect that Torres, who almost never scored from outside the penalty area, would shoot from a distance, and at this time he also hurriedly turned around and pounced on the left side of the goal.

The ball drew a strange parabola in the air, fell directly to the far end, and when it came to the far corner, it kicked hard and pounced on the incoming ball.

But......

'Gooooooooal, we scored again, Torres took the lead again for Blackburn, fantastic, fantastic! In the 13th minute of the second half, Torres scored from outside the penalty area, it was unbelievable, incredible! This goal was a death sentence for Real Madrid! Lineker in the commentary box roared.

Torres clenched his right fist and rushed to the front of the Blackburn fans with an excited face, raising his arms and shouting, Torres was extremely excited.

This goal is indeed as Lineker said, announcing the death penalty for Real Madrid - the Galaxy Battleship, which is 2:5 behind on aggregate, wants to turn the tables, and the only way now is to score four goals in the remaining half an hour without Blackburn scoring, an average of one goal in seven or eight minutes.

Such a situation, even if Real Madrid faces the Chinese men's football team, it may not be able to achieve it, let alone Blackburn, who is in full swing?

After a delay of more than a minute, the game resumed and Mourinho began to fight for his life, replacing Marcelo and Diarra with Higuain and Guti, and Real Madrid's formation became a crazy 3-3-4 formation.

Seeing Mourinho's adjustments, Ancelotti also saw a move, replacing Alonso and the goal-scorer Torres with Beckham and Drogba. Although it seems to be a counter-substitution, the two veterans with plenty of physical strength will obviously contribute more defensively.

The two sides battled it out in midfield, and Real Madrid's defensive moves were getting bigger. However, Cambiasso and Beckham, two veterans of Real Madrid, were like two meat grinders, constantly "strangling" Real Madrid's attack, and it became very difficult for Ronaldo and others to organize the attack.

Real Madrid wanted to use their ground cooperation to launch their own flowing attack, frequently using the two wings and Kaka's assault to pull Blackburn's defense, and with the addition of McCone and other players who inserted in the back, Real Madrid's attack was as fierce as a tide.

And Blackburn is not inferior, the super personal impact of the midfield, stirring up Real Madrid is also a mess at the back, Bale and Di Maria's breakthrough has created a lot of threats to Ramos and Carvalho, coupled with Drogba's deterrence in the middle, like a fish in the throat, Blackburn's counterattack is also impressive.

In the 71st minute, Ronaldo's free kick from 25 yards on the right side shot directly high.

In the 75th minute, Guti returned the ball and Sneijder's powerful shot from the edge of the box hit Kompany in the chest and went wide, and then Sneijder took a corner from the right and Ramos headed in from 12 yards that was denied by Cech.

Soon the game entered the final fifteen minutes, at which point the attack between the two sides began to weaken, and Blackburn Rovers would use up the game time with a thin inverted foot once they had the ball.

And Mourinho has nothing to do with it, and he is even thinking about La Liga - yes, it also means that Mourinho has completely abandoned this season's Champions League campaign.

Just as the clock was ticking and it was already the 81st minute of the game, Real Madrid launched a wave of attacks, Guti won the ball in the middle, and the position of Benzema and Raul immediately changed to make Blackburn frightened.

Benzema and Raul quickly came up to meet Guti, and the three of them cooperated in the middle, relying on a very high tacit understanding, as light and fast as a butterfly through a flower, and quickly broke through Blackburn's defense in the middle.

Raul picked up the ball on the left side of the penalty area, and in the face of Kompany, the Real Madrid captain just gave it a light send, and Benzema, who was inserted at high speed, received his through ball in the penalty area, without any stop, and directly picked up the ball, where there was already a figure fighting with Thiago Silva.

Seeing that the ball was about to fly, Thiago Silva blushed and held back his strength to stretch out his right leg, but Ronaldo's right foot firmly supported his body and secretly slammed Thiago Silva who was wrapped around him with his back.

Thiago Silva felt his body retreat uncontrollably, realized that something was wrong, and quickly tried to entangle Ronaldo again, but Ronaldo had already done it.

At the moment when he shook off Thiago Silva, Ronaldo made a strong right foot, leaned back quickly, lifted his left leg, and when he reached the highest point, his left foot stretched out in a straight line swept heavily on the upper part of the side of the ball, and flew outward towards the goal with an arc, like a scimitar out of the sheath.

Cech was standing near the near corner, but when he saw the ball flying towards the far end, he was frightened and moved quickly, but he only felt that the ball was out of reach.

"2:2, Ronaldo equalized." The voice of the Spanish commentator is also weak, because even if this game can be won, what if it can be won? Real Madrid still can't avoid the fate of elimination.

Mourinho saw this goal, he also pursed his lips and nodded slightly, even if Real Madrid still can't really compete with the booming Blackburn Rovers and Barcelona this season, but with a superstar like Ronaldo, Mourinho firmly believes that next season is the time for Real Madrid to really harvest.

"Dididi!"

As soon as the whistle blew and the symbolic two-minute stoppage time ended, Real Madrid and Blackburn Rovers were tied 2-2 in 90 minutes, but Blackburn advanced to the semi-finals with a 5-3 advantage on aggregate.

"Arthur, you're really strong this year, don't lose to our next door." After the game, Florentino deliberately found Arthur to express his blessings, not to say whether Florentino's superstar policy was correct or not, but in terms of temperament, he is definitely worthy of the position of president of Real Madrid.

"Definitely not, we're ready to win the championship, but we also need your support." Arthur and Florentino hugged.

The reason why Arthur said that he needs Florentino's support is because this season's Champions League final is being played at the Bernabeu, and Real Madrid's help is not decisive, but it is also very beneficial.

"No problem, after all, we've had a lot of fun working together over the past few seasons." Florentino laughed.

Arthur, who continued to talk and laugh with Florentino, had a trace of worry in his heart: it seemed that Florentino had taken a fancy to the star in Black's team again.

"I hope it's my delusion, right?" (To be continued.) )
