Chapter 564: Rat-throwing Trap

"The players from both sides have entered the stadium, welcome to the 20110-2012 season, the 33rd round of the Spanish Primera League, Atletico Madrid at home against Real Madrid!!"

On the commentary seat, the commentator Aduris is also already ready for battle.

"As for the home team Atletico Madrid, their starting lineup today is like this: goalkeeper is Keylor Navas, the center-back combination is Godin and Boateng, while the left wing-back Juan-Fran, the right wing-back Sandro, the midfield combination is Kante, Raul Garcia, Modric, and in the front, due to Reyes' injury in the last game, it is Mane who is now starting in his place, while the center is Aguero, and the other side is Griezmann! Instead of starting Diego Costa, Coach Gobo brought on Sadio Mane, perhaps to continue to maintain a 433 system. This system is a guarantee that Atletico Madrid will continue to win! ”

In terms of the away team Real Madrid, Mourinho is also the main net in this game, goalkeeper Casillas, central defender Pepe partner Ramos, left wingback Marcelo, right fullback Arbeloa, two backs are Xavi Alonso plus Khedira, forward Ozil, left and right are Real Madrid's 200 million Qi Fei Ronaldo and Bale, the top center forward is Benzema, in the competition with Higuain, the French striker gradually dominated, he is now a stable Real Madrid starting center. Higuain is said to have started to seek a transfer, and sitting on the bench is no small ordeal for the Argentine! ”

After Aduris finished speaking, his partner Matteo continued.

"Higuain can indeed consider looking elsewhere for opportunities, in terms of ability, he and Benzema are not compatible, he is a goalscorer, born with a desire to shoot and score, while Benzema can be used as a fulcrum in the front field, he can play the ball for Ronaldo and Bale on both sides, willing to be a green leaf, which is the reason why Mourinho chose Benzema to start."

The two commentators said that at this time, the captains of the two teams were already picking sides.

The setting sun has already shone on the other side.

I hope I can get the right to pick sides.

Raul Garcia prayed inwardly.

After all, facing the sun head-on, even if it is already soft, is not a good thing for the defending side.

However, when the referee opened the coin, Raul Garcia shook his head with some regret.

He didn't win the right to pick a side, and Casillas on the other side rightfully chose the side with his back to the sun.

So Atletico Madrid can only stand on the side of the sun.

Navas put his hands on the pergola and looked up into the distance.

Under the oblique sunlight, the visibility is much lower.

Fortunately, the sun was about to set, and the peaks of the Guadalama Mountains in the distance would be able to block out the sun in a few minutes.

When the players from both sides stood on the pitch according to their positions, the referee was already looking at his watch.

Soon, the referee blew the whistle and the game began quickly.

Sergio Aguero kicked the ball back and handed it to Luka Modric.

Luka Modric continued to pass back, and Atletico Madrid's formation spread out, opening up space for easy control of each other's passes.

Such a scenario was also considered by the coaching staff before the game.

It was an early game, so the impact of sunshine on the coaches had already been considered.

In five minutes at most, the sun will be blocked by the peaks, so all Atletico Madrid has to do in those few minutes is to keep the ball under control as much as possible and let the negative effects pass sooner.

Real Madrid naturally wanted to take advantage of this God-given opportunity and attack early.

So Real Madrid began to press up aggressively to press up front.

And in the face of such a situation, Atletico Madrid will certainly not be polite.

Soon, Modric's long ball gave Mane a chance in front!

Mane got the ball down and then used his speed to shake off Arbeloa, dribbled into the box, and before Ramos came up to defend, Mane fired first!

Although it was a shot that was blocked by Casillas' chest, and then he fished it into his arms.

But Atletico Madrid's knock on the mountain has also paid off.

Although the eyes are shining head-on by the sun, Atletico Madrid is not without attacking ability because of this!

Such a shot made the fans cheer.

Gao Bo shook his head regretfully at first, if he could take the lead first, this game would be much easier.

Mourinho was taken aback, then walked to the sidelines, pressed his hands down and signaled his players not to rush.

It's a game that neither side can afford to lose, so it's hard to be cautious.

At this time, Casillas launched a long pass counterattack and found Ronaldo directly.

Cristiano Ronaldo chested the ball and was ready to cut down the middle.

Kante had already seen the timing and snatched the ball away.

Due to Mourinho's reminder, none of the other Real Madrid players had time to press up

Therefore, Atletico Madrid did not have a good counter-attacking opportunity, and Kante simply passed the ball back to Godin and then ran to meet it himself.

Godin didn't pass the ball back to Kante, he gave it to Juanfran who then passed it back to Navas, who moved to the left.

After a pass, Atletico Madrid still had no reactionary attack.

Gao Bo was pleased with N'Golo Kante's performance.

In this game, on the personal card, Gao Bo chose to focus on stability.

While this is a game you can't lose, it doesn't mean Atletico Madrid have to win at home.

In fact, a 0-0, or even a 1-1, 2-2 draw, would be beneficial for Atletico Madrid.

As long as they don't lose to Real Madrid and then win against Sporting Gijón in the replays, Atletico Madrid will be able to tie Real Madrid in terms of points, and then the three away goals in Atletico Madrid's 3-3 draw with Real Madrid can make a big difference.

It's not Atletico Madrid that's in a hurry, it's Real Madrid.

For Atletico Madrid, they just don't lose. And Real Madrid, they have to win!

Therefore, in terms of card matching, Gao Bo is also defense-oriented.

At this stage of the league, Atletico Madrid can no longer afford to be surprised.

Any unexpected drop of points could put an end to a team's dream of defending the league title.

[Match Card (Green): Increases interception stat by 15%, designated for "N'Golo-Kante".] 】

[Match Card (Green): Increases Defensive Stance stat by 15%, designated for "N'Golo-Kante".] 】

On Kante alone, Gao Bo used two chapters of cards.

In Atletico Madrid's defence, N'Golo Kante was an extremely important link, especially against Real Madrid.

Jose Mourinho's side were very fast on the counter-attack on the wings!

Real Madrid's system of quick counter-attacks was established from Mourinho.

And in order to contain the offensive on both sides of Real Madrid, it is not enough to rely on two full-backs.

Juanfran and Sandro were too risky when they faced Cristiano Ronaldo and Gareth Bale one-on-one, as was evident in the first leg between the two sides.

Therefore, the midfielder is very crucial!

Atletico Madrid's side is based on stability.

In fact, Real Madrid did not dare to take a gamble lightly.

A draw is not good for them, but even if it is a draw, Real Madrid still have a chance, after all, they are only level on points with Atletico Madrid.

But if you lose... Then it's all over.

Real Madrid failed to strike, and immediately retreated to avoid being counterattacked by Atletico Madrid.

Two teams who were already very familiar with each other, after the opening kick-off, the game became slow.

Neither side is in a hurry to attack, or in other words, both teams are very jealous of each other's attacks.

The two sides threw bogeys, and the game became a bit dull.
