Chapter 154: The Last Stand
I was spent by you, I am Xiaobai! Guan Xiaolong's heart rippled, and he was very satisfied with the way he passed the ball.
Antoine Griezmann ran to the back post, which was a position that none of the Real Madrid players could cover.
Griezmann jumped hard, hit the middle of the ball, and headed it out with a powerful head. Casillas reacted super quickly and came to the right side of the goal.
But Griezmann's ball was up to the top and Casillas couldn't make a save. At 2-3, Real Sociedad pulled one back with 77 minutes played.
"Wow!! Griezmann is well done! Felisa in the front row jumped up excitedly. Although it was not a key goal to overtake or equalize, it was very satisfying for the fans to have such a fighting spirit against Real Madrid.
"If you don't leave, I won't give up!"
"Good ball, good ball! Pass well, top good! ”
"I didn't expect everyone to fight so hard!"
The home fans are back in the driver's seat, cheering on the players.
In this game, Casillas was absolutely depressed. He has always played the role of a savior, making contributions to the team by throwing left and right. What's going on today? Real Sociedad has only a few chances, so it's especially good for the two of us! It's really picturesque in the front, rotten scum in the back!
Today, Real Madrid's defense is generally out of the holiday stage, probably because the feet are not hot, and the few attacks of the social team have been completed.
Griezmann ran into the goalkeeper to pick it up and flew towards the centre circle. Guan Xiaolong and Gezi and others high-fived, and the speed of the whole team returning to their position was even faster than Real Madrid.
Mourinho made another adjustment, replacing Benzema, who performed well today, and replacing Higuain, who was eager to try off the pitch early.
Higuain was born at the wrong time, probably because of the key hard battle and soft feet, and he has never been reused in Real Madrid. survived one striker after another, and he was still an iron-clad substitute.
Lasarte was extremely surprised by this goal, even as a manager, after Real Madrid scored the third goal, he knew that the balance of today's game had been completely broken, and Real Sociedad could not do Real Madrid.
However, Griezmann's goal was like a powerful hand tightening a faucet, containing the situation that the Sociedad team might face.
The attack was initiated by Prieto, Guan Xiaolong advanced and assisted, and Griezmann finished. Guan Xiaolong mastered the right amount of proportion when he passed the ball on the last kick, and the on-site commentator couldn't help but praise:
"It's so beautiful! It's a very three-dimensional counterattack! Sociedad clearly didn't have as much control on the ground as Real Madrid, so they played the back post with a high ball on the final pass, avoiding Real Madrid's defenders. It must be said that the footwork of Guan is too beautiful! As a wing-back, precise long balls are a must-have! But you probably wouldn't have thought that as early as three months ago, Guan Xiaolong was still a striker in the West Second Division! I'm worried, is his right leg really okay with a cramp in the first half? ”
Seeing the hope, the fans of the home team suddenly became more motivated, and everyone sang the team song to cheer for the team.
"Beautiful, kids!" Lasarte shouted.
At this point he decided not to give orders anymore, he knew that the players would choose the right way.
Real Madrid kicked off again and went on the offensive against Real Sociedad. Even if one is recovered, Real Madrid still has a one-goal advantage, and the overall strength has an absolute advantage. Therefore, Real Madrid did not mess up, but was evenly matched, controlling the ball in the midfield.
Higuain was more excited after he came on the pitch because he was full of energy and had not played for a long time, so he panicked.
Soon Real Madrid played a combination in the front, Ozil advanced in the middle, grabbed the ball on Bergara and gave it to the feet of Ronaldo on the left. Ronaldo is being targeted at this time and has no good chance of breaking through.
Higuain pulled to the side to pick up, and Ronaldo passed the ball to Higuain and immediately ran to the middle.
But Higuain did not pass the ball immediately, but borrowed Ronaldo to contain the opponent's defense, and at the same time, he suddenly became eager to burst into the penalty area.
The defending Lavaka was stunned, but he was still stubborn enough to keep up with Higuain, sticking to him.
"Quick!" Cristiano Ronaldo beckoned desperately, but Higuain only carried about carrying Lavaca and rushing forward.
Mikel felt that Lavaca couldn't bear it, but it was Ronaldo who was defending himself, so he didn't dare to blindly defend together.
Higuain burst onto the left side of the penalty area, about parallel to the penalty spot, before being caught up by Lavaca. It is not easy to say that Lavaca is not easy, and there are many small movements in the hands to interfere with Higuain, which is definitely a high-risk operation.
Higuain saw that he was about to lose his position, and shot with his left foot. Maybe it's because he didn't feel like he was on the pitch, or maybe Lavaca's sticky defense worked. Higuain's shot flew high and flew straight into the Atlantic.
"What a fool!" Ronaldo quenched a few dirty words out of his mouth.
Higuain was pushed by Lavaca after his shot, lost his center of gravity and fell to the ground. Gonzalo rolled over and Higuain complained to the referee about the foul, but the referee ignored it.
"I'm about to break my hand, this guy just doesn't pass the ball! If you don't pass on such an empty position, you have to burst out there! "Ronaldo complained to Mesut Ozil and others.
It was noisy on the pitch, and Higuain didn't hear Ronaldo's complaints, but he knew that Ronaldo was unhappy by looking at his expression.
Higuain knew that he was greedy for merit and wasted such a good opportunity, so he apologized slightly on his face and raised his hand to admit his mistake to everyone. Although he and Ronaldo don't deal with each other, this time it is indeed his own problem.
Bravo took the goal kick and this time Bergara grabbed the first point. Alonso was the first to come up, and Bergara hastily passed the ball out, but unfortunately it was cut off by Mesut Ozil.
Ozil pushed forward quickly, but was also guarded by Prieto. Mesut Ozil passed the ball in desperation, and was countered by Bergara, who returned to the defense.
In the final stage of the game, the two sides fought in the midfield. Real Madrid's overall desire to attack has weakened, while Real Sociedad have been unable to launch an effective attack.
With 90 minutes played, Real Madrid used up their last substitution, replacing Di Maria and replacing Gago.
Mourinho used the time of substitutions to drag the rhythm, and the madman was also afraid of being wiped out. If the victory in hand is gone, Real Madrid fans will not be able to explain it.
"Brother, let's press a wave!" Guan Xiaolong said to Prieto as he grinded in Gago.
"In our current situation, how can we press it? Don't give another one. Belgara said.
"yes... Real Madrid's attack is too strong, and it is not easy to defend. Griezmann said.
it... Are you guys braining Watts?
"Checker, are you defending?!" Guan Xiaolong choked back, and then continued: "Anyway, it's the same if you lose, it's the same if you lose ten!" Look at Gago's grinding strength, how many minutes do you have to attack the other side? If it's done, we'll be tied. If you don't succeed, you can scare the other side to see if we are easy to bully! No matter how bad it is, it's a big deal to be 2 to 4, I still don't believe that Real Madrid can score two points if he scores a goal?! ”
