1177 I can do it!
At half-time, Real Madrid's dressing room was so quiet that only the heavy gasps of the players remained.
The final result of the first half was 0-1, with Real Madrid trailing Atletico Madrid by one goal.
The score of 1-0 is the most common first-half score in the Champions League final, but the last time the team fell behind at half-time and reversed the team to win the championship in the second half was in 06, Barcelona reversed Arsenal 2-1, and in the history of Real Madrid, there has never been a precedent for the Champions League final to fall behind by one goal and then come back, which undoubtedly deepened the pressure on Real Madrid players.
The locker room was quiet, and everyone was sitting in their place.
Casillas felt guilty and didn't know what to say, even Ramos, who was the most jumpy on weekdays, wanted to speak several times, but he couldn't help it, he obviously didn't know what to say.
In this case, once you say it wrong, it can easily backfire.
It wasn't until Carlo Ancelotti walked in from the outside with Zidane that everyone in the dressing room diverted their attention.
'We played well in the first half. Ancelotti's first words were to give the team positive praise.
"The goal we lost was an accident, no one wants it to happen, but since it has happened, then it makes no sense for us to pursue and regret it, and now the most important thing for us is to think about how to fight for a goal, or even reverse the score, which is the most important priority at the moment."
After listening to Ancelotti's words, everyone in the dressing room nodded in unison.
No one really blames Casillas, because everyone makes mistakes, it may be you today, tomorrow it will be him, and the day after tomorrow it will be someone else, so in the dressing room, the most important thing is to tolerate each other.
At this point, the Real Madrid dressing room is still doing a good job.
Of course, this good atmosphere is mainly due to Real Madrid's brilliant results, and they can always get back when they are scored.
In competitive sports, victory is king, and strength is the original sin.
"I looked at the statistics of our first half, the possession rate was more than 60%, there were a lot of passing and receiving errors, you must pay attention to the second half, and we retracted a little bit, and we had to press forward in the second half."
"According to the data I have at hand, Atletico's breaking position is about 45 meters away from their own goal, that is, most of them are concentrated near the middle line, and we are basically around 35 meters, that is, 30 meters in front of the area, from this point you can see that Atletico Madrid's overall formation is pressed forward."
'But in the last 10 minutes, Simeone will be on the defensive in the second half, they will choose to defend and then play our counter-attack, so we should play more resolutely and aggressively in the second half.
The Real Madrid players also nodded their heads, understanding what Ancelotti meant.
If you are one goal behind, then Real Madrid will not be able to play slowly, and you will have to hurry up and try to score.
Once you can't open the situation for a long time, it is very dangerous to be guarded by Atletico Madrid to the end.
Sometimes, the game is just the more you defend, the more confident you are, the more you defend, the more solid you are.
'I want to change the way the team plays and add a player to the attack.
With that, Carlo Ancelotti turned to look at Hazard, "I'm sorry, Eden, we need to put on a striker. ”
Eden Hazard was a little disappointed but understood what was necessary for the team to change the situation on the pitch.
As early as before the game, Ancelotti made it clear to him that if the game reached 60 minutes and there was still no way to open the situation, then he would consider replacing him and letting Suarez go up.
Now, Ancelotti's plans had to be brought forward.
"I understand." Hazard stood up, looked at his teammates in the dressing room, and finally looked at Yang Yang.
"In the second half, please everyone, we must win!"
Yang Yang and everyone nodded their heads, and Hazard got up and went to the shower area.
"In the second half, we played 442, with two strikers, the middle and back remained stable, and the front was actively looking for opportunities, we need to get a goal as soon as possible to ensure a draw, otherwise, the longer it drags on, the more it will be against us and the more pressure it will be."
Yang Yang has been through several Champions League finals and major finals, so he knows what Ancelotti means.
In fact, if Real Madrid still can't equalize after 70 minutes, then even if Atletico Madrid is almost exhausted, Real Madrid will still be very difficult, if not even more difficult.
Because at that time, Real Madrid's opponent was not only Atletico Madrid, but also time.
In a tie-or-lose game, sometimes it's teammates, but sometimes it's opponents.
"That's basically what I want to say, how to play in the second half, we have communicated before, everyone should understand, do you have anything to say next?" Ancelotti looked at everyone.
Whether it was him or Zidane, they could see that there was something wrong with the atmosphere in the Real Madrid dressing room.
Not just because of Casillas' mistake, but also because the players started to doubt.
Atletico Madrid's defense was very well organized in the first half, Real Madrid had a hard time getting chances, and now they have conceded a goal because of Casillas's mistake, which has caused many people to start doubting and starting to worry, will the team win?
This emotion is like a contagion that can quickly spread to everyone and shake their hearts.
Of course, this emotion in the Real Madrid team is not obvious now, but if it cannot be contained in time, by the second half, as the game goes by, this emotion will continue to amplify and finally get out of control.
The 6-0 bloodshed of Bayern in the semi-finals was caused by Bayern's emotional out-of-control.
Under normal circumstances, the two sides compete with normal play, and Real Madrid can't score so many goals.
But Ancelotti's question caused silence in the dressing room again.
Casillas has never been a man of words, Ramos is very jumpy, but not calm enough, wants to speak, but does not know what to say, and the rest of the dressing room naturally does not speak.
Ancelotti and Zidane both looked worried, and after sweeping around, their eyes finally fell on Yang Yang.
Feeling the gaze of the two, Yang Yang hesitated and stood up.
As soon as he stood up, everyone in the locker room immediately looked at him.
At this moment, he is the backbone of Real Madrid and the hope of everyone.
But the people present are all experienced and experienced professional players, and Yang Yang must come up with strong evidence to convince them.
"I don't know if you've noticed, in the first half, especially after Diego Costa, Atletico basically didn't even play a decent attack."
As soon as Yang Yang said this, many people showed a thoughtful look, and many people nodded again and again.
Even if it was the attack of the goal, it was really not bad, if it wasn't for Casillas, it is estimated that someone would stand up and echo Yang Yang immediately, because it was the goal given to Atletico Madrid by the Real Madrid goalkeeper.
'I'm sure it's not going to change in the second half, so the most important thing for us in the second half is how to attack while staying defensive, and that's what we do best.
Yang Yang said this very confidently, and at the same time quite convincingly.
This season, he alone has created the goals of all the people in the Atletico team combined, and he definitely deserves to say that because his form and performance are just horrible.
'We had a lot of problems in the first half, mainly because Atletico did a good job of cutting us, our wings and midfield didn't match the strikers enough, I didn't think I had enough support, I needed someone to pass the ball to me, and in the second half, Luiz would come on and I believe it could change the situation and take the pressure off me.
Suarez nodded, "Don't worry, I know how to do it." ”
"I think we should appropriately change the offensive play in the first half in the second half, add more 30-meter areas and the front of the penalty area, and even the cooperation in the penalty area, we must be bold and confident, because we have such strength, and we should speed up the rapid counterattack after the break, be resolute quickly, and we will grab it back if we lose it."
Speaking of this, Yang Yang spread his hands and laughed deliberately.
"Maybe God is deliberately trying to make it difficult for us, because we've won too much, we've not lost to Atletico for many, many years."
"Yes, it's been more than ten years!" Ramos found an opportunity to speak at this time, shouting loudly.
There was a burst of laughter in the locker room.
"Yes, we haven't lost to Atletico Madrid for more than ten years, and tonight is the same!" Yang Yang said loudly and confidently.
"I'm still saying that, you pass the ball to me, no matter what way, as long as it reaches me, I'll try my best to send it into the goal, I can do it before, I can do it tonight!"
After finishing speaking, Yang Yang sat back in his place.
But when Ancelotti and Zidane looked in the dressing room again, the mental outlook of the Real Madrid players was obviously a huge change from just now, and even many people showed a desire to play, which means that they have rekindled their hope and fighting spirit for victory.
And all of this is because of Yang Yang!
He is like the embodiment of victory, standing next to the Real Madrid players, fighting side by side with them, overcoming strong opponents with them, defeating opponents with them, winning championships one after another, and turning many impossible possibilities into possibilities.
In the past five years, they have fought side by side with Yang Yang and have been impressed by Yang Yang's performance and strength, which makes them unswervingly believe tonight that Yang Yang can do it and lead Real Madrid out of the predicament.
"Well said, we're going to get back on the pitch and finish off Atletico!" Ramos jumped to his feet and shouted excitedly.
But at this time, no one in the locker room will laugh at him, more empathetic.
Casillas also stood up at this time, but instead of apologizing for his mistake or making any excuses, he beckoned his teammates, formed a circle, and shouted a few slogans in unison to boost the morale of the team.
He knows very well that it is superfluous to say anything at this point, and what he needs to do is to show his performance to make up for the mistakes in the first half.
