Chapter 421: All or Nothing (Part 2)
Chapter 421: All or Nothing
The game is getting into the 80th minute!
There are only ten minutes left before the end of the 90-minute regular game, and 13 or 4 minutes are expected to be left when injury time is included.
The score remains the same. On the big screen, the score of 2 to 2 made the fans on both sides not very satisfied.
Especially the fans of Real Madrid, who once led by two goals, and now they are equalized, what makes them even more unhappy is that on the field, the current situation is completely Atletico Madrid besieging Real Madrid!
At the CalderΓ³n Stadium, the singing and cheers of the fans of Atletico Madrid continued!
With the cheers of the fans, Atletico Madrid launched wave after wave of attacks on Real Madrid.
The tide of attacks completely suppressed Real Madrid at the back, and although Atletico Madrid's offensive was expected, the intensity of this fierceness still made the Real Madrid players and their manager Jose Mourinho a little frightened!
Reyes is on the ball!
Abelloa, who has just come on as a substitute, stands in front of him!
Now it is difficult to penetrate the Real Madrid defense through passing alone, and now Real Madrid has eight players in the penalty area, including the goalkeeper, and only two players in the front field, Benzema and Cristiano Ronaldo, waiting for sporadic counter-attacking opportunities.
In the face of such a dense defense, Atletico Madrid's side also responded to a change of pace, and during this time, Atletico Madrid relied more on breakthroughs on both sides to attack Real Madrid's iron formation.
Reyes dunked the ball to the outside and then took advantage of Arbeloa's move to the outside and then dunked it back with his left foot, playing a time gap and then dodging the cross!
Reyes then passed the ball with his right foot, ready to find Diego Costa!
Ramos is battling with Diego Costa for a spot!
Both of them have a lot of moves in their hands, and they can be described as chess opponents.
The two have faced off a few times before, and Ramos on the defensive side has some advantage - which is normal, after all, the defender only needs to destroy.
And for Diego Costa, he doesn't have to worry about these few failures, a striker only needs to succeed once!
Like this time!
This time Diego Costa took the lead and he squeezed Ramos behind him, constantly pushing Ramos behind him.
And Reyes's pass was not too high, and after bypassing the defense of the front post, it fell directly!
This allows Diego Costa to get to the ball without having to jump!
Standing on the ground, Diego Costa's header was well controlled, his header went just towards the goal, and the ball changed direction and flew towards the goal.
The cheers in the stands were immediately replaced by sighs!
Casillas reacted very quickly and single-handedly denied Diego Costa's close-range header!
Football flies off the line, corner kick!
The corner kick is taken quickly!
Godin, who came up to participate in the corner kick attack, returned the ball to the middle!
Aguero in the middle pads the ball on his chest and is about to pick up his feet and shoot!
As a result, the football in the air was kicked away directly by Carvalho, who lifted his leg!
Before the Atletico Madrid players could complain about Carvalho's high feet, Modric fired another long-range shot after the football reached the periphery!
Casillas made another meritorious move, he flew to save and kept the goal open!!
Atletico Madrid continues to take corners!!
All the supporters of Real Madrid were nervous, and this period of time completely turned into a half-time offensive and defensive drill for Atletico Madrid!
Real Madrid were so pressed that even if they won possession, they struggled to get through half of the pitch in Atletico Madrid's frantic pressing β their formation was so flat that it was not resilient at all.
Karim Benzema and Cristiano Ronaldo up front were like kites with broken strings, and they hadn't had the ball up front for several minutes.
"It's hard to imagine that Real Madrid will one day be so completely suppressed!"
On the commentary bench, Aduris sighed.
This is Real Madrid, the best team of the 20th century, the owner of nine Champions League titles, and one of the biggest clubs in the world!
And now, their defenses are precarious, and it looks like they could be breached at any moment - and that's if they defend with all their might!
Mourinho on the sidelines couldn't help it, and he immediately made a second substitution adjustment!
Benzema was also replaced, and on the bench was also a defender - Albiol!
Albiol can play as a centre-back or as a defensive midfielder, and Mourinho's purpose in filming him on the pitch is obviously entirely for the sake of defence!
In this way, in the front of Real Madrid, the counterattack point is left with Ronaldo as a player. It seems that Mourinho also doesn't care about attacking at all.
He's going to defend, just guard against this draw!!
Gao Bo is unwilling to accept a draw, in his own home field, how can Gao Bo accept a draw!
In the stands, the singing of the fans of Atletico Madrid became louder and louder.
Gao Bo looked at the stand!
Countless pairs of arms were waving, and cheers echoed throughout the stadium.
The fans haven't given up yet, and they have no reason to give up.
"Offense!! Offensive!!! I don't want a draw!! β
Gao Bo yelled on the sidelines, "A draw is a failure!" Press it all on me!! Crush them!!!!! β
He looked at the time of the game, and it was already eighty-seven minutes!
Now there are six or seven minutes left until the end of the game! Gao Bo looked at the bench.
If you want to strengthen your attack, maybe changing to an offensive player is the way to go, but for Gao Bo, his best attackers are on the court, and sometimes, just changing the attacker doesn't solve the problem.
At this time, he saw Godin, who had participated in the corner kick attack, slowly running back.
"Don't come back! Diego !! β
Atletico Madrid has two Diegos, but at this time it is obviously Diego Godin who is shouting at Gao Bo!
Godin looked to the sidelines, only to see Gao Bo waving his arms.
"Press it up!! Push into the restricted area!! Use your header to get involved in the attack!!!!!! β
Godin paused for a moment, thinking he had misheard.
However, Gao Bo's very clear posture is to tell him, press up! Get involved in the offense!
Godin had no objection either, and since the manager chose to trust his header in the last minute, he had no responsibility to blame.
Godin's height of 187 cm is considered an ordinary height among central defenders, but Godin has excellent heading skills - Gao Bo even thinks Godin is the best header in the world!
At the last minute, it would definitely work to let Godin play as a cameo as a center forward, with Godin's header ability!
And now Real Madrid has a Ronaldo left in the front, Godin has gone up, and there are three defenders in the backfield, such as Kante, Boateng, and Sandro staring at Ronaldo.
At the end of the game, Gao Bo decided to take a gamble!
He pulled up the soccer card system and equipped a card.
[Match Card (Green): Header ability increased by 15%, designated player "Diego Godin" to use!] γ
Godin was originally good at heading, but now with this card, purely from the header, there are not many people in this world who can compare to him!
"Godin didn't go back!! He pressed into the box!! β
The commentators were also quick to notice the changes in Atletico Madrid!
"Atletico Madrid's last-minute frenzied attack, they're going to take a gamble!"
