As the world's top coaches, Ancelotti and Simeone's control of the game is basically not too much of a surprise.

The two coaches' deduction of the situation in the first half basically happened, but there were some surprises.

After just nine minutes, Diego Costa couldn't hold on.

The Brazilian-born Spanish striker started the game aggressively, pressing on the Real Madrid backline, but after a sprint it was clear that something was wrong and he couldn't hold on and was replaced by Adrian.

Simeone's gamble is lost!

Losing this bet deprived Atletico Madrid of a valuable substitution, as well as the fulcrum of the front court for the counterattack.

The combination of Villa and Adrian, whether in terms of tactical role, style of play, or individual strength, is far from being able to replace Diego Costa, although Villa is a world-class striker, but at the end of his age.

This was the first substitution in the history of a Champions League final.

Simeone looked depressed on the sidelines, and it was clear that at this moment, he felt that tonight's lady luck was not on his side.

Subsequently, Atletico Madrid still used high pressing tactics, which is what they do best, and it is also the only way they can beat Real Madrid, and Real Madrid did not choose to hit hard, but appropriately contracted, and used the ball to consume Atletico Madrid.

Simeone knew Real Madrid's intentions, but he couldn't help it.

Only the strong have a choice, and the weak can only accept their fate!

In addition to the mad dog-like scramble, Simeone's team also fouled frequently.

The two teams are sworn enemies in the same city, the Dutch referee Keppers is soft in the whistle, and after a few attempts in the opening game, Atletico Madrid figured out the style of the Dutch referee and began to increase the intensity of action, which made the gunpowder smell of the game very strong.

On one occasion, Real Madrid wanted to launch a quick counterattack, but Raul Garcia made a decisive tactical foul and tackled Di Maria, ruining a very good counterattack opportunity for Real Madrid, and the referee gave Raul Garcia a yellow card, but Ramos and Di Maria were very annoyed and went to the referee to comment on the appeal.

As a result, Ramos was not kind and was also shown a yellow card, but fortunately he was pulled away by Yang Yang, who arrived in time.

Both sides played very hard, the players executed well, and neither left too many chances for the other, so the game became a war of attrition, and Real Madrid would have consumed less in comparison.

Diego Costa went off injured at the start of the game, Atletico lost an important fulcrum up front, and the game was deadlocked, all of which looked to be positive for Real Madrid, as if the goddess of victory was beckoning to Real Madrid.

But just when everyone thought that the balance of victory was tilting in favor of Real Madrid, the game suddenly reversed.

In the 36th minute, Atletico Madrid won a corner kick from the right side.

Captain Gabi sent a corner kick and was pushed out of the box by the Real Madrid defender, but on the edge of the box, Juanfran pushed the ball back and fell back into the box.

In the penalty area, Ramos and Godin are fighting each other for the landing spot, and it looks like Godin has grabbed the position, but Ramos also jumps at the same time, desperately interfering with Godin.

At this time, Casillas, who was originally guarding the goal line, didn't know what reason he was thinking, so he abandoned the goal and rushed directly towards the ball landing point, but just halfway through the attack, he realized that he had made a mistake.

Godin, under the interference of Ramos, the ball was not fast, the force was small, and the angle was not tricky, but it was precisely because of Casillas's attack that Real Madrid's goal was empty and unguarded.

Realizing that something was wrong, Casillas immediately turned and ran back, and quickly pounced on the ball before it could be fished out, and although he did so, the ball eventually fell to the ground and bounced into the net.

The Real Madrid goalkeeper was so angry that he slammed the grass inside the goal, but he couldn't change the reality.

……

"Whoa, oh my God, what's going on?"

"It's a surprise that Casillas would make such a bad low-level mistake."

'It was supposed to be an attacking opportunity that Atletico themselves hadn't thought of, and it turned out to be a goal.'

"It's really incredible, Casillas's mistake is so terrible, it directly puts Real Madrid in a backward position, and it is simply a gift to Atletico Madrid."

"The change in the situation of the game is so surprising, just now we were saying that if we continue to develop in this direction, Real Madrid will win in the second half, but what we didn't expect is that now it is Atletico Madrid who have scored the first goal."

'We could see that Simeone was very excited on the sidelines, he didn't expect that the Real Madrid captain would send them such a goal, and for Atletico Madrid, it could well have won the title.

"Unbelievable, unbelievable."

……

Real Madrid's players were equally shocked.

Yang Yang stood at the front, looking back at the direction of the goal, he saw Casillas slowly getting up from the goal, looking extremely embarrassed, while the other Real Madrid players looked very surprised and lost.

This kind of conceded goal is the biggest blow to the player.

Everyone worked so hard to create chances, but only to end up with a low-level mistake that ruined the team's good situation, what did the players think?

Casillas must have understood this through a lot of battles, so after getting up from the ground, he looked very lonely, but he had to raise his hand to his teammates from afar to apologize, but this did not help the team's morale much.

Trailing 0-1, Casillas did take a moment to adjust his emotions when he made a mistake like this.

…………

…………

In the stands of the Stadium of Light, Real Madrid president Florentino, accompanied by manager Manuel Redondo and technical director Baldano, sat with a group of Real Madrid celebrities to watch the match.

When they saw Casillas make such a low-level mistake that caused the team to concede a goal, everyone had disappointment on their faces, and even the likes of Hierro, Raul and Guti, who had played with Casillas for many years, showed a look of disbelief.

It's a Champions League final and a single goal conceded can change the outcome.

It's impossible to make zero mistakes in any game, but Casillas' mistakes this time were really too serious.

"The adjustment of the goalkeeper position is imminent and must be done as soon as possible." Florentino's eyes flashed with a fierce look.

If Real Madrid lose the Champions League tonight, it will be Casillas' responsibility.

No one can deny that Casillas has contributed a lot to Real Madrid, but this should not ignore the fact that his overall competitive quality has declined a lot, and his technical characteristics and his age make it difficult for him to be reassured now.

In the goalkeeper position, Real Madrid has not wanted to bring in reinforcements for a day or two, but it has never been more urgent than now.

This is the Champions League final, a game worth more than 100 million, but the goalkeeper has such a mistake, how can people rest assured?

'We've been in contact with Manchester United to bring in David De Gea and the player himself wants to come to Real Madrid, but Manchester United are also very tough and they won't consider selling De Gea unless we let Di Maria go. Baldano frowned.

Manchester United have a high regard for De Gea, especially this season, the Red Devils' performance has been sluggish, but De Gea has played bravely, which has made the Spanish goalkeeper even more popular and has become an important part of Manchester United's revival plan, so Manchester United basically refused to talk about it.

According to Manchester United's private statement, Real Madrid wants to get De Gea, and they have to exchange Di Maria, which is unacceptable to Real Madrid, because in the current European football, a right winger like Di Maria is very difficult to find, but De Gea is not the only candidate for Real Madrid.

'I've spoken to Vicky and he has given two credible options, Manchester United's David De Gea and Chelsea's Courtois on loan at Atletico Madrid, who is more likely at the moment, but Barcelona want him as well.

Courtois is almost two meters tall and has performed so well in the past few years at Atletico Madrid that many people have forgotten that he is actually only twenty-two years old and a very young rookie, but tonight he stood in front of Atletico Madrid's goal, high and low, and performed well.

A big reason why Chelsea are considering selling Thibaut Courtois is that they have Cech.

It is known that Cech is Mourinho's favourite and Thibaut Courtois' loan at Atletico expires this year, and Chelsea want him to return, but Courtois dropped his harsh words back in April and does not want to go back unless he is given a regular position.

In fact, it's understandable, given that Thibaut Courtois is now a first-choice goalkeeper at Champions League final level, and a return to Chelsea to replace Petr Cech would be fatal for a 22-year-old goalkeeper who is at a crucial stage in his career.

It was because of this contradiction that Barcelona was given the opportunity to take advantage of the situation and try to sign Courtois to replace Valdés, but according to the revelations, Chelsea offered a high price of 30 million pounds, which made Barcelona very hesitant.

Twenty-three-year-old David de Gea and twenty-two-year-old Courtois, these two goalkeepers are undoubtedly the most eye-catching young talents in European football, and they are also the top goalkeepers in European football in the coming years that everyone is convinced.

Real Madrid's goalkeeper coach Vicky has produced many top goalkeepers in his career, such as Gianluigi Buffon, Dida and Petr Cech, and he has a positive attitude towards De Gea and Courtois, which shows the quality and potential of these two goalkeepers.

"Go all out for De Gea!" After hesitating for a while, Florentino made a decision on the spot.

Baldano nodded in agreement, as David De Gea is Spain's main goalkeeper for the next decade.

……

Inside the stadium, after Atletico Madrid's unexpected goal, Simeone's side began to adopt a more defensive tactics and began to retreat across the board, becoming extremely conservative.

It was clear that Simeone had a goal and started to counter-attack, which they do best.
