Section 522 Jokes
For Wolfsburg, when the score is equalised, all they expect is to wait quietly for the opponent to run out. For more recent chapters, visit: . Atletico Madrid's physical fitness is not good, and there are even last-minute defensive problems in the league, and they have to rely on red cards and fouls to hinder the opponent's attack, and the longer the game drags on, the better the game will be against Wolfsburg, which is an indisputable fact, and Wolfsburg is very aware of this.
It's just that the victory of Wolfsburg still has the last flaw. Atletico Madrid are not completely out of the cracks to win. Although there is only half time left, and as time goes by, the situation will become more and more unfavorable for them, however, because it is an away game, Atletico's goals are also worth a thousand dollars. As long as they can score a goal before they are physically exhausted, then Atletico can turn the tide of battle in this game, thus claiming victory and undoing Wolfsburg's efforts.
Atletico are clearly well aware of this situation. After the start of the second half, Atletico Madrid's players also started their attack. Although playing away from home and with a tight whistle, taking the initiative to attack is not Atletico's preferred style of play, but in the current situation, they have no choice.
In this game, their last hope for victory is to score a goal. And such an attempt they had to make.
However, it is not easy for Atletico to score goals. Whether it's Atletico Madrid or Wolfsburg, these two teams are dark horses, and they can stand out in the Champions League to get to this point, and they both rely on defense more than attack. In the first half, Wolfsburg's attack was almost impossible to find any opportunities under Atletico Madrid's strict defense, and in the second half, Atletico Madrid's attack was also very tightly blocked by Wolfsburg.
Although Atletico Madrid's players are more skilled than Wolfsburg, it is not easy for them to break through on the pitch.
On the football field, Atletico Madrid's players are making quick passes. Behind the half-time line, Juanfran crossed the ball to Thiago and then was over-kicked by Thiago to Felipe. The ball was passed from the left to the right. Atletico's players kept the ball firmly at their feet, but they couldn't find too many good chances. Compared with Atletico Madrid's defense on all fronts, Wolfsburg's defense is much tighter, but when it comes to power, it is not weak.
Felipe got the ball. Finally, he gave a straight kick to Cork in front of him. And Koke, facing the Wolfsburg defense, is not looking for opportunities to pass, but tries to break through himself. He ran forward with the ball, and although Shaheen next to him immediately pasted it, he avoided Shahin's defense and 'handed the ball' forward to Costa.
Before Costa could stop the ball, Gustavo behind him was already sticking to his feet. Under the strong confrontation, Costa could not hold the ball well at his feet, and could only pass back with one foot. And it was sent to the feet of Cork. His pass was a clever move, and when Koke 'plugged in', Gustavo could no longer intercept him, and Koke managed to get past his defence and pounce towards the Wolfsburg backline.
However, just behind Gustavo, Kjaer had already made up for it. As soon as Cork dodged Gustavo in the middle of the entanglement, he faced Kjaer's defense. Kjaer's position was stuck, and he was decisive on his feet. He met the ball directly at Cork's feet head-on and kicked the ball back.
Cork's breakthrough didn't work after all, and Wolfsburg's interception. still let him return in vain.
Kjaer's pass sent the ball to Shaheen in front. But Shaheen also hadn't held the ball yet, and Gabi next to him had already come up closer, clinging to him to break the ball. Shaheen confronted him on the one hand, and on the other hand, he also wanted to turn around and avoid his robbery, but. Just as he turned, Costa on the other side had already struck and kicked the ball out of Shahin's feet again.
Atletico Madrid's counter-robbery is still extremely sharp, and it still caused great trouble, but these troubles did not make Wolfsburg back down. Costa successfully counter-grabbed and immediately wanted to 'plug' the ball again, but this time, Gustavo next to him posted it again, and the two fought in the middle, and as Shahin also chased back, under the two people's sandwich, Costa finally couldn't protect the ball.
Seeing that there was no chance, Costa fell directly to the ground in exchange for a whistle. However, although the referee's punishment was very tight, it was also much stricter, and it did not give him a chance to succeed.
Atletico's attack was eventually stopped. Just as Wolfsburg's attack is difficult to pose a substantial 'sexual' threat to Atletico Madrid, Atletico Madrid's offense cannot really pose much of a threat to Wolfsburg. The match between Atletico Madrid and Wolfsburg is destined not to be a big score game, and the matchup between the two teams with weak offense and strong defense is destined to be a game where every ball is worth a thousand gold.
Wolfsburg and Atletico Madrid will not give each other a chance, and every goal they score is destined to be extremely difficult.
Suddenly getting up from the ground, Costa also frowned: In this game, Atletico Madrid's stamina has been draining, and as the game progresses, they will only play worse and worse. And Wolfsburg's crazy interception made Atletico Madrid have no way at all, and their pressure is getting bigger and bigger in this game.
The weakness of physical strength made Atletico Madrid's players a little helpless. Fighting on two fronts, this aspect is an irreparable wound. And as time goes by, their problems get bigger and bigger, which will also become the ultimate reason for their losses.
Seeing that the attempt was fruitless, the players of Atletico Madrid also knew that they could not go on like this, blindly attacking, it was obviously difficult to knock on the big 'door' of Wolfsburg, compared to this kind of crazy attack, perhaps, trying to use better offensive skills, is the real thing to try.
Wolfsburg broke Atletico's big 'goal' with a set-piece, so can Atletico also draw a gourd?
Atletico Madrid's players were thinking so, and soon, they also found such an opportunity, in a scramble in the midfield, just above the halfway line, Wolfsburg's Gustavo fouled, although this position is not particularly good, but it can also be tried to take advantage of it.
The set-piece was on the right, with Gabi standing in front of the ball and directly in front of him, where Villa waited for his chance, and in the middle, Koke was also playing to pick up. Farther away, Costa was ready to 'insert' into the penalty area at any time, and Atletico were also very prepared for this goal.
Looking at the position of his teammates, Gabi took two steps back and then gave the ball to Koke with one kick.
Gabi gave the ball to Koke, which was indeed quite unexpected, and what was even more unexpected was that Koke received the ball and immediately kicked the ball. Moreover, his pass was a very surprising one: the football was rubbed up at his feet and fell towards the touchline on the right side.
This pass is definitely something that no one expected. Almost everyone's eyes were on Villa in the middle at this time, worried about what the three of them would do, but no one expected that Koke would give the ball to Juanfran on the wing. On the wing, Juanfran was unguarded at this time, and when the ball flew over, he also rushed up directly from the side.
In the middle, Costa ran up quickly, this is almost Atletico's last chance, even if he fights everything, he has to hit the ball into the 'goal' at this time.
However, the defense of Wolfsburg also arrived at this moment. When Juanfran 'plugged' from the wing, Turan, who was originally a little close to the middle, had already pounced. Facing a fast-breaking Juanfran player, Turan made a sliding tackle and kicked straight in front of his side. Although his movements are quite conservative and he does not deliberately show the spikes, this tackle is still extremely violent, even quite rough.
His tackle directly caused Juanfran to fall to the ground, and this attack was interrupted.
Atletico Madrid's players also frantically surrounded at this time, and they saw the tackle just now, they saw it very clearly: when Turan tackled, he did not tackle the ball, but directly tackled the person, this action is an undoubted foul.
The referee apparently saw the action as well, and he also walked over and pulled out a yellow card at Turan. Turan didn't have any opinion on the decision, he nodded and accepted his foul.
Anyway, even if you have a yellow card on your back, this tackle is already worth it.
One of Atletico's most 'outstanding' attacking opportunities was blown away. Turan received a yellow card, but Atletico's attack was completely blocked. Atletico Madrid's players were already extremely tired, as if at this time, they had been dealt another fatal blow.
Throughout the season, they relied heavily on foul play, unnecessary fouls, and they always liked to come and go twice every now and then in the middle of the game. Who knows, a season is about to pass, and this most important game, the most important opportunity, was interrupted because of a foul by the opponent. How could this possibly be acceptable to Atletico?
As if fate had played a big joke on them, Wolfsburg interrupted Atletico's attack in Atletico's favorite way. They also reluctantly found that it seemed that it was not difficult to break the lower limit at all, and when the opponent did this, they were also helpless.
For Atletico, this is not just an attack: after this attack, neither physical strength nor time is allowed to make any more attacks, and in the rest of the time, it is difficult for them to counterattack, and in extra time, it is estimated that they can only unilaterally endure the attack of Wolfsburg.
The rest of the game time is the carnival of Wolfsburg.
