Chapter 571: 6 kills in a row
After encountering Pepe's plots several times in a row, Feng Quan began to increase the number of times he dropped back to get the ball, after all, when he retreated near the halfway line or in his own half, Pepe could not follow.
Despite this, the power of Feng Quan's counterattack will be weakened to a certain extent, but in the same way, Feng Quan's defensive pressure when receiving passes from teammates will also decrease. And once Feng Quan is relatively comfortable receiving the ball, then it is not so easy for the opponent to break the ball from his feet.
In the 32nd minute of the second half, after Feng Quan got the ball near the center circle in his own half, he first easily shook off James Rodriguez's save with his speed advantage, and then shook off Tony Kroos's defense with his bicycle feint.
Just as Feng Quan, who got rid of two opponents in a row, was about to continue to advance, Modric, who was the most backward in the midfield of the Real Madrid team, and Pepe, who had used fouls many times to stop Feng Quan, finally took advantage of the short time delayed by their teammates to block Feng Quan's front.
If you change to other players who have been fouled by Pepe many times, they may choose to "avoid his edge" and seek cooperation with teammates to avoid being injured by the "bad guy". But instead of choosing to "avoid it", Feng Feng, who has always liked "tooth for tooth", rushed towards Pepe's side.
However, just when Pepe was about to shovel Feng Quan at the moment when he broke through him, Feng Quan suddenly chose to make an emergency stop at a distance of three or four meters from Pepe. Then flick the ball sideways with his right foot and make a gesture to move the ball to the right side.
Seeing this scene, Pepe's face suddenly showed a mocking smile, and at the same time deliberately said in English: "Are you scared!?" ”
When Pepe was the most proud, he heard Feng Quan sneering and replied: "You think too much!" Immediately afterward, Feng Quan jerked his right leg and kicked the ball hard towards Pepe's body.
Although Pepe began to subconsciously prepare to dodge the moment Feng Quan slammed his legs, due to the close relationship between the two, the football kicked by Feng Quan still smashed Pepe's left abdomen and bounced back to Feng Quan's feet.
However, just as Feng Quan was about to continue to move forward with the ball, the referee's whistle suddenly sounded, and then quickly ran to Feng Quan and showed him a yellow card.
At the same time, with the exception of Pepe, who fell on the turf, almost all Real Madrid players rushed to the scene of the incident, ready to attack the wind.
Of course, the Atletico Madrid players also did not watch the absolute core of their team being besieged, and they all rushed to the front of Feng Quan at their fastest speed, pushing together with the Real Madrid players.
And Feng Quan, who provoked this incident, put on an innocent expression.
In the end, it was not until the referee showed a yellow card to Marcelo and Siqueira, who had the biggest pushing action on the two teams, that the farce was finally put to rest.
At the same time as the referee calmed down the conflict on the field, Raul Jimenez, who was ready to replace Feng Quan, also happened to complete the warm-up.
Then, when Feng Quan saw Raul Jimenez standing on the sidelines, and the referee held up the number 11, he began to walk towards the sidelines.
However, after Feng Quan had just taken two steps, he suddenly stopped and quickly ran to the referee's side, and defended innocently: "My kick was a shot, but I only kicked that guy because my footwork was not well controlled." So, I was so wronged by this yellow card. ”
Although the referee didn't speak, his face showed a look: "I believe you have a ghost expression." ”
Immediately afterwards, when Ronaldo stepped forward to push Fengquan to leave the field as soon as possible on the grounds of deliberately delaying the game, the referee finally said: "You better go down quickly, otherwise I will give you a second yellow card." ”
Hearing this, Feng Quan first shrugged his shoulders, and then said with an innocent face: "Mr. Referee, you have also seen that I was injured when I was put down so many times on the field just now, so I am lucky to be able to walk off the field by myself now instead of being carried down on a stretcher." ”
Although the referee once again urged Feng Quan to leave the field as soon as possible, his speed to the sideline was only slightly accelerated.
…………
Feng Quan's departure did not completely eliminate the smell of gunpowder on the field, and Raul Jimenez was elbowed by Pepe in a header duel less than three minutes into the game.
Although Pepe's foul was enough to get a red card, the referee probably showed him a yellow card because it was Real Madrid's home stadium.
Seeing that Pepe's evil deeds have not been punished as they should be, how can the Atletico Madrid team, which has always had a strong style of play, show weakness.
Just two minutes after Raul Jimenez's plot, Bale fell painfully on the turf after being hit in the abdomen by Siqueira after breaking down the right flank.
Siqueira thought that his blow to the opponent's abdomen was quite hidden, and the referee only awarded him a foul at most. However, the assistant referee who was responsible for offside saw Siqueira's foul completely.
As a result, the referee first awarded Real Madrid a free kick in front of the court without hesitation, and then showed Siqueira the second yellow card of the game at the prompting of the assistant referee.
Originally, the Real Madrid players did not have much hope of turning the game around, after all, even if injury time is counted, they only have more than 10 minutes left. However, Siqueira's departure from the pitch rekindled their hopes of an equaliser or even a reversal.
Unfortunately, Real Madrid's flame of hope burned for less than a minute before it was extinguished by their opponents.
Although Tony Kroos's free kick accurately found Ronaldo who was ambushed near the penalty spot, under Miranda's interference, Ronaldo's header was very powerful, but the correct angle was easily confiscated by the in-form Oblak.
Oblak confiscated the ball and raced to the edge of the box before smashing a powerful hand to find Griezmann who was quick forward down the right flank.
With Real Madrid left with only Pepe, Marcelo and Arbeloa at the back besides goalkeeper Casillas, once Griezmann is allowed to dribble the ball into the front, the goal will be in danger again.
Therefore, Marcelo, who had already carried a yellow card earlier, had to pull the opponent's shirt after being deceived by Griezmann's feint.
Despite being Real Madrid's home stadium, the referee had to send him off with a second yellow card for such a clear foul.
Neither of the two teams, each lacking one man, was able to organise a dangerous attack in the ensuing game, and the score of 2-0 was maintained until the end of the game.
So far, in the six "Madrid derby" competitions since last season, Atletico Madrid, as the "little brother", has won all of them.
