Flying Immortals!
World Wave Break!
Since scoring his first goal for Real Madrid in the Champions League group stage in 2015 at home against Basel in the Champions League group stage, after more than a year, in the first leg of the first round of this season's Champions League knockout round, the Brazilian defender blossomed and scored the top ten goals selected for the Champions League after the game, sealing the victory of this game and laying the foundation for advancing to the quarterfinals.
This goal is not only Casemiro's first goal in the Champions League this season, but also the second goal in all competitions so far this season.
Real Madrid hosted Granada in January with James Rodriguez providing the assist and Casemiro scoring his first league goal of the season in all competitions.
Casemiro seems to have opened his mind this season, while doing his own job defensively, he also acts as a forward midfielder when the team attacks, and sometimes scores goals and assists, which makes people see a fake Casemiro.
……
"Kroos has a long pass at the back! Pretty! ”
"Cristiano Ronaldo and Isco collide against the wall!"
"Cristiano Ronaldo inverted triangle pass!"
"Casemiro! The Brazilian midfielder shoots directly and vigorously from a distance! ”
"Ball...... Pretty! Zhang Zhetian made a side pounce, and the ball rolled out of the bottom line! ”
"Beautiful save, our door god is as brave as ever!"
Listening to the excited commentary in front of the TV and the computer, watching the slow motion of Zhang Zhetian's beautiful rescue, and the excited shouting of the audience in front of the screen, in the middle of the night, caused the abuse of the neighbors.
Zhang Zhetian got up indifferently, patted the dust on the game uniform, and instructed his teammates to defend the corner.
The drawbacks of not having a midfielder have finally emerged in Real Madrid's typical active attack.
Taking advantage of the dead ball opportunity, at the halfway line of the fieldside, the fourth official held up the substitution card, and Arsenal made an unprecedented substitution adjustment not long after the start of the second half.
No.35 Mohamed Elneny replaces Rob Holding and No.34 Francis Coquelin replaces Oliver Giroud.
Sky Sports Studios.
"It's really rare to change two people in one go at this time, and Arsène seems to be planning to defend." Around Arsenal's substitutions, Martin Taylor has his thoughts on it.
"Elneny, Coquelin, change two midfielders in one go, replace a central defender and a central striker, is Mr. Wenger going to stand on the defensive and play a counterattack?" Saul Campbell asked, puzzled.
It can be understood that Real Madrid's substitution expressed the need to rely on the individual ability of the star to blast Arsenal's defense in a positional battle, and Holding lacked experience and ability, so he was replaced. Monreal can play at left centre-back, his defensive awareness and positional sense are top-notch, and he never takes any chances, so he moves to centre-back. With Bale off the pitch and Ronaldo's range of movement on the left, it just avoided Monreal's physical deficiencies. Thierry Henry was so eloquent that his former team-mate and David Beckham looked stunned.
They didn't expect that after leaving Arsenal, in addition to being a full-time commentator for Sky Sports, he became the assistant coach of the Belgian national team.
Taylor gave Henry an admiring look and asked him: "It's obvious that Arsenal will change to a double back and strengthen the defence, but with Oxlade-Chamberlain playing at left wing-back, he is right-footed, which is not conducive to wide crosses, what do you think of this change?" ”
"Arsenal's current formation is 24121, replacing Giroud with no front-court fulcrum, which shows that Arsenal no longer starts from high-altitude balls and crosses, but is based on defense, resisting Real Madrid's attack, using the palm of the long ball to hit Real Madrid's back, let's see, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Sanchez, Walcott, and Bellerin, they are all players who are good at speed, and Ramsey, who has a strong offensive awareness and running ability, and Ozil also has a strong forward awareness, do you believe it, Whenever Arsenal have a chance to counter-attack, they can put in six men when they counter-attack! As long as Real Madrid can't resist Arsenal's counterattack, they will definitely concede the goal! ”
Except for Taylor, everyone suddenly realized, while admiring Henry's tactical ability, they were also full of expectations for the second half of the game.
Zinedine Zidane saw the scene of Arsenal's substitution, his eyes flashed with surprise, he didn't expect Arsène Wenger's ability to adapt so quickly, is this really the godfather of Arsenal he knows?
'Zinedin, Arsenal now, has changed and if you still look at this team with old eyes, you will pay a heavy price.
The scene of shaking hands with Arsene Wenger before the game came to Zidane's mind.
This Arsenal team has changed?
Yes, it is no longer an Arsenal that does not run actively, no longer an Arsenal without fighting spirit, no longer an Arsenal that is slow to adapt and poorly adjusted.
Both the players and the coaches are not the same as before.
Giroud's departure meant that Arsenal had no fulcrum up front. The presence of two midfielders meant that the Gunners' central defence was no longer in demand.
Although most of the Arsenal players are not opponents in terms of individual ability, in a one-on-one situation, football, not basketball, it has more people involved and a larger field, which means that in the modern football era, individual heroism is not like basketball, there is a lot of room to play.
In the 48th minute, Toni Kroos took a corner kick, the crowd in the penalty area surged, Sergio Ramos jumped high and flew to the landing point of the ball, and the "Toni with water" in the football rivers and lakes began to connect.
"It's not 90 minutes yet, it's not your time, it's no show!"
Roaring, I have long noticed that although Ramos's Zhang Zhetian jumped a little later than Ramos, don't forget, Zhang Zhetian's athleticism is unmatched in the entire football world, not to mention, and his arm span that is longer than that of a basketball player.
"Smack!"
With a wave of his arm, he slapped the ball out of the penalty area with his left palm.
"Clap the sky! Brother Tian's clapping! ”
"It's too domineering, Shui Ye is not the opponent of Brother Tian's clapping palm!"
"Slap the sky with one palm, only my brother Tian!"
"Even the sky can be photographed, no matter how high Ramos jumps, he will be able to eggs!"
"Wow, Brother Tian's strange power, this slap slaps the ball so far!"
Zhang Zhetian's domineering clapping of the sky detonated the Internet and shocked the Real Madrid players.
A hint of fear flashed in Zidane's eyes, and as the head coach of the team, he saw Zhang Zhetian's actions more clearly.
"While hitting the ball, you can accurately hit the ball at the feet of your teammates and fight back, this Chinese, it's terrible!"
"Back to the defense! Defend yourself! ”
The emiratil stadium erupted in high-decibel shouts, almost drowning out the roar of the Real Madrid coach.
Theo Walcott, who was not involved in the corner kick defense, was somewhat surprised to get the ball from Zhang Zhetian in the right corner of the penalty area, and although he was a little shocked by the strong slapping ability of his Chinese team-mate, the battle-hardened "Little Tiger" quickly realized that this was an excellent counter-attack opportunity.
The excited Walcott ran with all his might, and on the other side, Alex Sanchez was also running forward, and behind him, in addition to the Real Madrid players who were chasing back, Alex Chamberlain, Héctor Bellerin and other teammates also ran fast to support.
Of course, Real Madrid's defense is not empty, whether it is Marcelo or Daniel Carvajal, although half a beat slower than the pace of Walcott and others, but they run back in the middle, showing their rich game experience.
No matter how fast they run, they will eventually push towards the middle, and as long as they are in the middle, it will be difficult for the opponent to shoot easily.
"It doesn't matter if the counterattack fails, just come a few more times." Zhang Zhetian looked ahead while arranging his gloves, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
