Chapter 425: Take a step back and open the sky
At half-time, players from both sides walked out of the locker room and towards the pitch.
They met in the passageway.
Because they are sworn enemies in the same city, the players of the two teams have a bad relationship.
Even if we meet, there is no such thing as greeting each other, so it's nice not to quarrel......
The two sides glared at each other a few times and went their separate ways.
When Cristiano Ronaldo saw Gao Zheng, he looked at him almost through his nostrils, with his head held high and his toes high.
After all, he scored a very beautiful goal in the game to give Real Madrid the lead.
It's normal for him to behave like that.
Gao Zheng noticed Ronaldo's performance, and ordinary people might stare at each other and walk away.
But Gao Zheng is not an ordinary person, he turned his head and asked Ronaldo in surprise: "What's wrong?" Is there such a big difference in height between the two of us? Do you need to look up to me? ”
Ronaldo almost tripped under his feet.
He really didn't expect Gao Zheng to be able to say such a thing, he wanted to show off his might in front of Gao Zheng, but Gao Zheng, your kid's answer is not right!
Should you be this reaction?
Don't forget, you're still a goal behind!
Ronaldo withdrew his gaze in disgust, snorted, ignored Gao Zheng, and walked out of the passage quickly.
And Gao Zheng was behind him, laughing.
His smile fell into the eyes of the other Real Madrid players, which was a little weird - it's you who are behind it, why can you still laugh? Something is wrong with your brain?
Gao Zheng ignored those surprised eyes, he shook his head with a smile and walked towards the court.

After the start of the second half, Zidane also planned to let the team choose a more conservative tactic and focus on defense as they did in the first half.
But he soon found that the first half was not up to scratch.
Because Atletico Madrid made targeted adjustments in the second half, and their adjustments had an immediate effect.
Carrasco was easy to understand, but Gao Zheng's retreat really didn't make Zidane expect.
In his vision, Gao Zheng is the top scorer in the Atletico Madrid team, and Simeone must rely on Gao Zheng's scoring ability if he wants to equalize. At this time, how could Gao Zheng be withdrawn from the forbidden area?
Doesn't keeping him away from the goal less of a threat to the goal?
As a result, Simeone actually let Gao Zheng retreat...... What did he think?
It didn't take long for Zidane to know what Simeone was thinking.
After Gao Zheng retreated to the forward position, he became more active.
Because he has the technique, the vision and the awareness, he can link the back and the front, and use his skills and passing to sort out the team's attack.
At the same time, after the retreat, Gao Zheng also had more space, which was better than being surrounded by people in the penalty area all the time.
Although he will not relieve his defensive pressure after dropping back to midfield, the more people who come to defend him, the fewer people will defend his teammates, and he can pass the football to his teammates who run into the air.
The reason why he couldn't do this in the first half was because even if he was free, Gao Zheng didn't have a pass object, because there were too few Atletico Madrid players here.
Until halftime, after Simeone made adjustments, everyone consciously rushed here to meet Gao Zheng, and Atletico Madrid's attack came alive all of a sudden.
When Gao Zheng got the ball in this place, Casemiro defended Gao Zheng according to the idea of the first half, but Gao Zheng used his foot skills to erase him, and as soon as he saw that his teammates were about to be broken through, Toni Kroos immediately made up for it.
But the defensive area where he was was was left was empty.
After attracting Kroos, Gao Zheng used the outside instep to pull the football out and pass it to Koke who was over there.
Koke dribbled the ball towards Real Madrid's penalty area and then slid it straight to Antoine Griezmann.
Antoine Griezmann gets a shot on goal and shoots with his feet!
Real Madrid goalkeeper Keylor Navas made a save to get the ball off the line!
"Oh oh oh!! At the beginning of the second half, Atletico Madrid created a killer! José Maria shouted.
The first half was indeed too embarrassing for Atletico Madrid fans.
Not to mention the team conceded a goal, there was no decent attack, and there was no hope of an equaliser at all.
At half-time, many Atletico Madrid fans were depressed, and after seeing the elated Real Madrid fans, they became even more depressed.
However, at the beginning of the second half, Atletico Madrid's performance lifted them up and seemed to see hope!
Of course, there are also people who are more cautious and don't know if this is Atletico Madrid's luck.
After all, opportunities like this will come up once or twice in a game...... That doesn't tell the whole story.
But then Atletico Madrid hit Real Madrid's goal with a series of fierce attacks, and Real Madrid was a little embarrassed.
"Antoine Griezmann!! Not again! What a pity! It's just a little bit close!! ”
"Carrasco broke through on the flank, he got past Carvajal!! Cross! Navas punched the ball out...... Gao received the ball, he pretended to shoot but passed the ball out, and Gabi, who was following him, completed a heavy shot from outside the box! It's a pity that it misses ...... But Atletico Madrid's attack is clearly more threatening than in the first half! ”
"This time it was Saul and his low shot from the edge of the box was blocked by Navas!"
"Eight minutes into the second half, Atletico Madrid was on the offensive and what about Real Madrid? So far, I haven't had a single shot on goal! Simeone's half-time adjustments were very successful, especially for Gao Zheng to retreat. In the first half, it was obvious that Gao Zheng was difficult to get a chance in the penalty area, since this was the case, then simply let him withdraw from the penalty area, which not only revitalized Atletico Madrid's attack, but also disrupted Real Madrid's defensive deployment, which is really a clever move! ”
Xu Yang was full of praise for Simeone's arrangement.
But many Chinese fans don't think so.
With such adjustments, Atletico Madrid's attack has indeed improved. But correspondingly, this is at the expense of Gao Zheng's scoring ability, Gao Zheng has been reduced from an offensive protagonist to a supporting role, and has become a role in passing the ball to his teammates.
As a Chinese fan, I still want to see Gao Zheng score in the game...... If Atletico's victory had been brought about by Gao Zheng's goal, it would have been a perfect victory.
Now Atletico Madrid's offensive has improved, but Gao Zheng still didn't shoot......
Of course, there are also people who disagree, thinking that as long as Atletico Madrid's offensive improves, it will be a good thing.
After all, when other Atletico Madrid players can force Real Madrid to defend, the defensive pressure around Gao Zheng will naturally be reduced, and then it will be Gao Zheng's chance.
If someone thinks that Gao Zheng can withstand the pressure even if he faces Real Madrid eleven by himself, he can pass all the Real Madrid players, and then send the football to the goal, otherwise the strength is not strong enough, then this person should be woken up with urine......
