Chapter 242: Ace's Speed Duel

readx;

The game between the two sides entered a fast-paced confrontation from the start. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoWhether it's Real Madrid or Hoffenheim, the characteristics of both teams are fast, and when two fast teams meet together, they are naturally fast and accelerated.

There was an emotional scene in the first minute of the game. Chu Zhongtian instigated an offensive, and Hoffenheim quickly hit the opponent's hinterland. Ibisevic fired a shot from outside the box and the ball grazed the post and flew off the line, leaving the Hoffenheim fans in the stands happy.

"Oh! Judging by this shot, Hoffenheim are in good shape! Just a minute into the game, they had a dangerous shot on goal! ”

'Real Madrid have been in good form lately and it looks like we have a game to look forward to......

In this game, Rangnick's tactical instructions to the team were to press all over the court and use rough fouls or big defensive moves to contain Real Madrid's play.

The players executed faithfully on the pitch.

As soon as Real Madrid kicked off, Hoffenheim's players pounced on them and were inseparable.

Even if they are down-to-back in the backfield, Ibishevic and Obasi and others will press up, even if the opponent passes the football out, they will not give up, just change the target of the rush.

It looks like the Real Madrid players are teasing monkeys. But Real Madrid fans who watch the game definitely don't think it's good, and they are scared every time they pass the ball. For fear that the pass would be too big, he didn't stop so that the opponent seized the opportunity to break the ball directly in front of the court.

To be honest, Hoffenheim's full-court pressing strategy did cause some distress and trouble for Real Madrid's players.

They had to improve their passing and receiving speeds.

Several times, when Ozil and other players retreated to receive the ball in the front court, Chu Zhongtian, Sana and others rushed behind them as soon as possible, and made a steal with their feet, so that they could not turn around, and could only pass the football back.

The fast attacking style that Real Madrid is most proud of has not been able to play because of this.

Later, Real Madrid simply found their teammates in front of them with a long pass from the back, intending to rely on the individual ability of their teammates in the front court to break the deadlock.

This has some effect, because without passing through the midfield, Chu Zhongtian and Sana can basically only directly return to defense and act as a central defender.

But Real Madrid are not the kind of team that is good at long balls, and there is basically only one Ronaldo up front who can fight for the header, Benzema and Mesut Ozil, and Pedro. Leon is not good at heading.

After playing for a while, I found that the effect was not good, and Real Madrid changed it back.

Seeing that Real Madrid's attack was stopped by their own tight defense, Hoffenheim began to pursue goals.

They were sharper in attack and created some chances. However, none of their strikers got their hands on it.

β€»β€»β€»Chu Zhongtian took the ball in the midfield and immediately pulled Sena. Diarra came up and grabbed his ball.

Chu Zhongtian knows the power of this French back, although he can only play as a substitute in Real Madrid, but he is the absolute main force when he goes to any other team, his interception ability is very outstanding, his figure is not tall, but he is flexible, his feet are fast, and his body is strong and strong, and he is stable and not easy to fall. So he can always slam in when you turn or adjust your center of gravity to separate the person from the ball.

Chu Zhongtian understood this Diarra's ability, so he didn't give the other party a chance to grab his own ball, and saw him pass the football out.

Then he ran the position.

Diarra didn't give up and continued to follow him.

It seems that blindly avoiding it is not possible, Chu Zhongtian did not choose to pass the ball immediately after receiving the ball, but resisted Diarra's defense. He felt that if he didn't teach this kid a lesson, he would definitely be endlessly with himself in this game. Chu Zhongtian didn't want to hang an oil bottle to organize an attack.

Diarra came up to grab the ball, Chu Zhongtian turned around and stuck him behind him, Diarra couldn't reach it with short legs, so he could only harass him in the back. Chu Zhongtian supported Diarra with one hand, balanced with the other, and then he looked up.

Maybe he felt that Chu Zhongtian, who was observing, would definitely relax the control under his feet, and he could take advantage of it. So Diarra was going to go around the front to break the ball.

How could he have thought that while Chu Zhongtian was observing, he had been thinking about Diarra behind him. Feeling Diarra leave his body, Chu Zhongtian knew that he was going to go around the front to defend. So he slammed the ball behind him with his right foot, and at the same time turned around with his left foot! The whole process just kept Diarra behind him - Diarra was around from the left, he ran a circle, ran to the front, and found that he was still behind Chu Zhongtian.

Blocking Diarra behind him, while he hadn't posted it yet, Chu Zhongtian took the football away and dribbled the ball horizontally!

Chu Zhongtian, who got rid of Diarra, did not give Diarra a chance to pounce again and entangle himself, and a long diagonal pass transferred the football to the feet of Quaresma on the right side.

After Quaresma brought in Hoffenheim, he adapted to Hoffenheim after a short adaptation period, which has something to do with Hoffenheim's tactics. Hoffenheim's emphasis on attacking quickly and making the most of the flanks is exactly what Quaresma is all about.

Chu Zhongtian is his "leader" in the team, and he and Chu Zhongtian have a tacit understanding after many contacts. Seeing Chu Zhongtian dribbling the ball horizontally, he inserted it to the side.

Sure enough, he received the ball from Chu Zhongtian.

Unloading the football, Quaresma faced the man who was left back Marcelo. Marcelo is strong in attack and weak in defense. Although there has been a lot of improvement in defense this season, there is still a gap between the top and the best. It is a lot of fancy feints against Marcelo, his kick speed is high, but just bet on the first hit, if the first shot can intercept the ball, he wins, but if the opponent's rate is higher than him, his first shot is likely to be used by the opponent, after the empty, there will be no space behind him, and when the time comes, he will break into the penalty area, and he will follow him.

Therefore, in the face of Marcelo wasting less time to make feints, it is best not to slow down, that is, to change direction directly by speed and then force a breakthrough. The past actual combat has proved that Marcelo has no problem dealing with those players with delicate footwork, he is afraid of speed players, as soon as he comes up, he will rely on speed to force you, he will not play any footwork with you at all, and he will not give you the time to judge the timing of the foot to break the ball, if you dare to kick, I will go directly to you.

In fact, many defenders are afraid of this kind of unreasonable speed opponent, because as defenders, they need to turn, and the turning speed is not fast, and when they turn around, the opponent has long been out of the dust, and all they can see is the opponent's back.

Quaresma's speed is not weak, although he does not eat by speed. However, against Marcelo, he was still happy to show his speed.

After receiving Chu Zhongtian's pass, Quaresma relied on his speed to force a break through Marcelo and then sent a cross, but the ball allowed Ramos to push it out.

One of the obvious characteristics of Jose Mourinho's Real Madrid is that they are more solid defensively, and one of them is reflected in their defense of high balls, unless you have a very high height advantage and very accurate crosses, it is not so easy to get points in front of their defenders.

Ramos pushed the ball out and landed right at the feet of Chu Zhongtian outside the penalty area.

Chu Zhongtian didn't hesitate at all, he adjusted the football and shot directly from the spot!

The ball whistled towards the goal, and this time Casillas made a brilliant save and flew to shoot the ball out!

Corner kick!

"Hoffenheim got a corner! Chu's shot was very beautiful, and of course Casillas was also brilliantly guarded! Just ten minutes into the game, Hoffenheim continued to threaten Real Madrid's goal! Look at the two of them, they really intend to beat Real Madrid on their home turf! If they do, they're big heroes – and there's a lot of debate across Europe about who can beat Jose Mourinho's Real Madrid, but no team ......has done it in the pre-season, in the official league, in the Copa del Rey or in the Champions League.

As he spoke, Salihovic set up the football and the Hoffenheim players were in position.

Centre-backs Simunic and Comper both ran up to join in and were ready to head home.

Chu Zhongtian stood on the line of the big penalty area, ready to insert the attack.

Real Madrid's players have also largely returned to the box, with the exception of Mesut Ozil, who is roaming outside.

The linesman stepped back and signaled for Salihovic to kick off, and Salihovic kicked the ball towards the goal after a run.

Chu Zhongtian originally planned to insert himself into the penalty area, and then jumped high in the sprint and rushed to the top. But when he was about to do it, he saw that the flight path and landing point of the football were not very good, and if he rushed in, he might not be able to hit anything.

So instead of rushing in, he retreated.

Sure enough, the football was not hit by any Hoffenheim player, but called Albiol to top it out, Chu Zhongtian looked up and watched the football fly high above his head, and when he turned around, he saw Higuain receiving the ball!

He knew it wasn't good!

As soon as the corner kick was taken, our defense was weak at the back, the centre-backs went up, and there was hardly anyone behind. It's a great opportunity for Real Madrid to play a quick counter-attack, and they are the best at that!

β€»β€»β€» Over there, Chu Zhongtian completed a shot that made the whole Rhein-Neckar cheer, and this side is also the team's number one star, Cristiano. How could Ronaldo be lonely?

Although as soon as he gets the ball now, there will be boos in the stands against him. But he's used to it, except for the Bernabeu, there are boos everywhere he goes, and this person is getting more and more booed.

As soon as he received the ball on the pitch, there were deafening boos from the stands. In fact, the Hoffenheim fans didn't really hate him, and many fans asked him for autographs before the game. Boshing him has actually become a "tactic" that everyone is using, trying to interfere with him, provoke him, and make him lose his cool.

But now Cristiano. Ronaldo is getting more and more mature...... Higuain received the ball from Albiol and turned to take it forward.

Chu Zhongtian knew that there was a hole in the defense, and the players who called Real Madrid caught it! So he ran back and shouted Sana's name: "Lorik! ”

He didn't have to say what he was asked to do, Sana himself knew. Because when Chu Zhongtian shouted like this, he had already rushed towards Higuain!

"It was a quick counter-attack from Real Madrid! They're the best at it! The narrator shouted excitedly.

The Real Madrid fans in front of the TV and in the stands were as excited as the commentators.

The Hoffenheim fans also made a loud noise.

Sana, who was rushing towards Higuain, made a flying tackle as he approached the Argentine. He knew that there was no air defense in the back, and he felt that instead of letting his opponent pass like this, it would be better to put him to the ground now and stay here forever. A foul here is a yellow card at best. It's better than letting the opponent score a goal, right?

But he thinks so, and the opponent thinks so, knowing that defenders in this position will choose to foul. So Higuain has been on the lookout for Sana's flying tackle, and when he saw him shoveling over, he knocked the ball forward, and then jumped high to avoid Sana's flying tackle!

"Oh! Pretty! ”

Chu Zhongtian ran back desperately from the moment he realized that the situation was wrong, he turned his head to take a look, and found that Sana's defense was unsuccessful, and was easily dodged by Higuain. So I increased my speed and continued to defend back.

Then a man overtook him from outside his field of vision.

The man's back number is "7".

"Cristiano. Ronaldo! ”

The difference in speed between the two men quickly became apparent.

Although Chu Zhongtian gritted his teeth and chased, C. Ronaldo, who ran without the ball, was quite fast, and he could only watch the gap between the two gradually widen.

Higuain, who passed Sana, did not continue to dribble the ball and saw that Hoffenheim's defensive centre of gravity was moving towards him, and he looked up and saw that Ozil was at the far end, on the other side of the pitch, and there were no Hoffenheim players around him.

So he directly got up and made a long pass!

Because it is a long diagonal pass, the football has a flight time in the air. Although Ozil has no one around him now, it doesn't mean that there is no one around him after the football flies past - the Hoffenheim players are not stupid and can't watch the football fly past without defending.

Of course, Chu Zhongtian saw the scene of the football being passed to Ozil, but he didn't care about Ozil, he continued to follow C. Ronaldo, the two of them are now about five meters apart, he didn't give up, he is still chasing.

The ball fell, and Ozil faced the ball, followed by Hoffenheim's player Srner. Mesut Ozil didn't catch the ball, he didn't even stop the ball, and his team-mate Cristiano was rushing towards him along with the football. Ronaldo.

Chu Zhongtian already knew what Ozil was going to do, but he didn't have time to remind his teammates that it was all happening too quickly.

Ronaldo slapped the horse and Ozil raised his right foot to directly reach him with the ball in the air!

Ronaldo received the ball and broke through the Hoffenheim backline, burst into the penalty area, and faced goalkeeper Nyema directly!

Chu Zhongtian still didn't give up, when Ronaldo received the ball, his speed had to be reduced, and he had to adjust the football, it was absolutely impossible to run as fast as he had just now. This is the only chance he has to close the gap.

C. Ronaldo swept in front of Ozil like a gust of wind, followed by Chu Zhongtian.

Ronaldo in front picked up his right leg and he was ready to shoot!

It's too late to lean up, Chu Zhongtian stretched out his feet to put the shovel, flying shovel!

Ronaldo's right foot kicked the football first, and when he kicked the football out, Chu Zhongtian's foot also rushed up and shoveled him to the ground.

Nyema made a save.

The ball flew past the tips of his fingers.

He didn't stop the football, the ball didn't fly off the line, the ball grazed the post and flew into the goal and hit the net!

The ball is in!

Chu Zhongtian tackled C. Ronaldo, and the Portuguese pressed on him, he couldn't see anything, but he could tell from the sound from the scene whether the ball had gone in. There were no huge cheers, but there were cheers, not loud, and he knew the ball was in.

The small cheers were from the few Real Madrid fans, while the large Hoffenheim fans fell silent as they watched the football fly into their own goal.

He slapped the ground hard.

Damn it!

"Ball...... The ball is in!! ”

"In the nineteenth minute, Real Madrid took the lead! A typical Mourinho counter-attack! It's fast! ”

"Oooo Cristiano. Ronaldo! He scored his third goal of the tournament! It was also his 51st official goal in Real Madrid! Before the national derby against Barcelona, he was in really good shape! ”

C. Ronaldo didn't care about his dangerous defensive move with Chu Zhongtian, watching the football fly into the goal, he jumped up from the ground, ran to Real Madrid's bench with open arms, and he wanted to hug and celebrate with his friend Pepe there.

The boos at the Rhine-Neckar stadium died down for a while, and the Hoffenheim fans were still in the mood of conceding a goal, and they didn't care to boo the arrogant Portuguese.

Chu Zhongtian lay on the ground and didn't get up. He looked up at the night sky.

I tried my best, but I didn't catch up with Ronaldo, and the gap in absolute strength is really not something that can be made up by the quality of will...... If only he had that speed...... Damn it! Unwilling! No, willingly!

Chu Zhongtian in 2007 once caught up with Kaka in a long-distance run, but Kaka at that time ran with the ball, and today's C. Ronaldo is running without the ball, of course, running without the ball is faster than running with the ball, because running with the ball has to constantly adjust the distance between himself and the football, every time he touches the ball, he has to slow down slightly, and his body always has to pause, which gives Chu Zhongtian, who is sprinting to catch up with the back, a chance to catch up with Kaka at the last moment. In Real Madrid's match against Mallorca in the league last season, C. Ronaldo scored a hat-trick, and one of the goals that equalized for the team in the wild half showed his speed off the ball to the extreme. He sprinted at a distance of 27.85 meters in only 2.80 seconds, which translates into 100 meters of sprint speed of 10.05 seconds, and the speed reached 9.95 meters per second!

You must know that C. Ronaldo has exchanged sprint experience with Usain Bolt, the world record holder in the 100-meter run. It's normal that Chu Zhongtian can't catch up with him...... But Chu Zhongtian was unwilling in his heart, because of his own reasons, the team conceded the ball first, and he couldn't forgive himself. Maybe I realized this earlier, and I went back to run back, and there was a chance to put C. Ronaldo to the ground near the center circle?

But there are no ifs on the football field, and it's useless to say anything when the football has rolled into their net.

Hoffenheim, who was bent on winning, conceded a goal first in the game and became a laggard.
