Chapter 45: The first shot

Considering the situation of the team before this game, and considering that this is the home stadium of Real Madrid, Simeone's tactics in this game are defensive counterattacks, first solid defense, and then have the opportunity to counterattack.

This tactic requires the players to have a lot of patience and good tactical execution.

And Simeone is not worried about either of these points, his team has been tuned by him to the way he wants it to be.

After the game started, he sat on a chair in the box and watched the game with Erlang's legs crossed.

Both teams had a large number of players travelling around the world to compete in the international team during the international break, and the physical condition of the two teams was certainly not 100 per cent.

So the pace of this game must be very slow at the beginning, and everyone will mainly test each other.

The actual situation of the game was indeed similar to Simeone's prediction, and Real Madrid, who played in the main cabinet, also showed more caution at the beginning, or the tempo was relatively slow, and did not rush to the top.

It can be seen that the national team competition still has a great impact on the players.

If this is placed in normal times, it is estimated that from the first minute of the game, the two sides will fight with bayonets.

It wasn't until the ninth minute that Atletico Madrid had a chance to push into Real Madrid's 30-metre zone, only for Koke's cross to be blocked by Marcelo with his foot, and Atletico Madrid won a corner, the first of the game.

As Cork ran to the corner flag area to watch a corner, he heard the Real Madrid fans scolding from behind him.

This knock is under the Bernabeu South Stand, where the most hardcore and fanatical Real Madrid fans gather, and they naturally regard Atletico Madrid as enemies with a vendetta against their father.

So they will insult the Atletico Madrid players with particularly nasty words, which is not only the best way to vent their emotions, but also to increase the pressure on the Atletico Madrid players and make them emotionally unstable, so as to help Real Madrid.

This is the same as boos, but when you are closer to the opposing player, the boo is too simple to carry more information that stimulates the opposing player.

At the time of the World Cup final in Germany, if Materazzi had just booed Zidane, I am afraid Zidane would not have had any reaction - after all, as a professional player, who has not heard booing?

But when Materazzi insults Zidane's family with very specific words, the effect is completely different. He eventually succeeded in infuriating the core of the French team, causing him to destroy his martial arts. And Italy had the last laugh and won the World Cup.

Live TV gave a close-up of the corner flag area, in which Koke sets up the football and takes two steps back, ready to kick the corner, and behind him are Real Madrid fans who pop up and shout loudly, it doesn't matter if you can't hear what they say, it doesn't matter if you don't understand it, just look at their raised middle finger and you know it's not a good thing.

Young Cork stared intently into the box, as if his ears were oblivious to what was going on outside the window, and he didn't hear the nasty swear words at all.

Then he raised his arm and made a gesture, a code they had agreed upon.

When he does that, it means that he sends the ball to the front point and lets his teammates go to the front point to grab the ball and shoot.

The referee on duty of the game, Matt Ullaos, blew the whistle and Koke lowered his arms to help him run and kick the ball.

The football was really kicked by him to the front point, but he didn't play it very accurately, he didn't find his teammates, but let Cristiano Ronaldo, who was defending at the front point, push it out!

"Ronal's versatile {back in front of goal, a header cleared!'

The ball that had been pushed out fell to the feet of Atletico Madrid's Siqueira, who stopped the ball and then passed it to the side for Koke, who ran back to pick it up.

Cork then crossed again.

This time the football flew straight to the back point.

After the corner kick was topped out, the Real Madrid players had already pressed out for the first time and made an offside position.

And the Atletico Madrid players could only follow out of the penalty area.

It's just that their reaction was not as quick as the Real Madrid players, and when Koke crossed for the second time, the two Atletico Madrid centre-backs were still dragging behind them and jumping into an offside position.

So when a Real Madrid player saw Koke's cross, he raised his arm to signal that the Atletico Madrid player was offside.

But neither the linesman nor the referee was indifferent.

Because Coke's corner kick was passed directly to the back point, and at the back point, someone inserted it back, and it was not offside!

It's Griezmann!

He ran to the spot, unloaded the ball, and swept it towards the goalkeeper before Coentrão and Pepe could block it.

Because Griezmann is inserted from behind, he is now in this position closer to the baseline than Goji Miranda, so Miranda and Gopox are not offside.

The other Real Madrid players hurriedly returned to the defense.

Sergio Ramos' first instinct was to open his arms to intercept Godin, because behind him was the Atletico Madrid player who was most likely to approach football.

However, at the same time as he stopped Godin, another leg wearing red socks suddenly stretched out from behind Godin, and before Godin Ramos, he used the outside instep to cushion the flying football towards the goal!

The man was completely hidden behind Godin, and Ramos didn't even see who the owner of the leg was.

Casillas was unprepared for the sudden kick, and it was too late for him to make a save when he saw the ball flying towards the goal.

The football grazed the near post and flew into the Real Madrid goal!

Then a man raised his arm in front of Goske and turned and ran towards the corner flag area, and it was only then that Ramos could see the number and name on the back of his shirt.

No. 9 Gao Zheng!

“gaoooooooooooooooooooooooooool!!!!” José Maria raised her arms and chanted from the commentary seat. "Just ten minutes into the game, Gao opened the scoring for Atletico Madrid, and they took a 1-0 lead away from Real Madrid!"

The few Atletico Madrid fans cheered, but soon their cheers were drowned out by the boos and angry shouts of the Real Madrid fans.

But this kind of boos can't cover Gao Zheng's light at all.

"Gao Zheng/Liang Chang's clever stab!" He Ping, the Chinese commentator, yelled. "He opened the scoring for Atletico Madrid! Atletico Madrid have had a fantastic start! ”

There have always been rumors that He Ping is a Real Madrid fan, so when he was commenting on La Liga games, he was often scolded as a "yellow dog" by Barcelona fans, but listening to his such exciting words, where is there a little bit of Real Madrid fan?

Maybe he is really a Real Madrid fan, but in front of his compatriots, the team he originally liked had to be relegated in his heart.
