The reason why Martino chose to drag it out is because most of Real Madrid's players are not as physical as Barcelona, and they are playing away from home, and if they go to extra time, Barcelona will have an advantage in physical strength.

You must know that Barcelona has relatively high physical requirements for players in order to complete their full-court pressing tactics, so their physical strength is better than that of Real Madrid.

And Real Madrid is attacking fiercely now, Lin Yu needs to keep running to find a vacancy, and other players must also have to quickly return to defense after attacking, which will consume a lot of physical strength, and if this continues, it is estimated that in extra time, except for Lin Yu, the rest of the people will basically not be able to play, and at that time, Barcelona will basically be able to pick up ready-made victories.

Tired tigers are inferior to cats.

Even if you are a fierce beast, if you can't move, there is no point, Martino is now waiting for the tiger of Real Madrid to soften, and then capture it when the time comes.

This tactic doesn't need to be specifically advised by him, because that's what Barcelona is doing now, they are defending now, and Real Madrid is constantly attacking, looking for opportunities to score.

……

I have to admit that Martino, as the head coach, is still very vicious, and his judgment is completely correct, Real Madrid's new tactical style of play can indeed suppress Barcelona, but it is indeed too demanding on physical strength, if you can't solve the game in regular game time, then it will be over if it really drags on to extra time.

Lippi knows that, but he can't let the team play because that's the case. There will be uneasiness in the team, and it may even be due to the time of retraction. Give Barcelona a chance to fight back, if you let the opponent score one. That's even more troublesome.

Therefore, Lippi now has only one thought, that is, he must settle the game smoothly after the end of regular time, and drag it to extra time, which is a failure.

However, the player's physical problems were more serious than he expected, and in the 83rd minute of the game, Xavi . Alonso was put to the ground and then couldn't get up because he started to cramp badly. It seems very painful.

The referee stopped the game and the nearby Real Madrid players rushed forward to help Xavi. Alonso tackles cramps, but Xavi. Alonso's problem is obviously not cramps, but physical exhaustion, so in desperation, Lippi can only choose to make another substitution, this time he replaced Xavi with Hesse. Alonso.

That's right, replacing an attacking midfielder with a defensive midfielder, Lippi meant it clearly. It's about settling the game before overtime, and he doesn't want to drag it in.

It is worth mentioning that in Harvey. When Alonso fell to the ground, the Barcelona fans at the scene actually booed and cursed against him. This made Lin Yu very unpleasant, and the fans of Barcelona scolded him, which he could understand. After all, he has provoked his opponent many times, and it is normal to be scolded. But Alonso is a good player and just plays in peace. He didn't do anything drastic, and he had to be treated like this, which really made Lin Yu feel a little indignant.

He glared coldly at the Barcelona fans in the stands, and said secretly in his heart: "Even if it's for this, I'm going to make these guys cry!" ”

Harvey. Alonso's cramps are actually a warning that Real Madrid's situation is a little worse, and it is only a matter of time before they start to have problems with their stamina and can't hold on.

Subsequently, the high morale and fighting spirit gradually began to shrink.

Seeing this situation, the happiest are naturally the Barcelona players, they got Martino's signal to drag the game to extra time, but looking at this, there is no need to drag it out to extra time, it is estimated that in more than ten minutes, Real Madrid will completely collapse.

……

Lippi replaced Xavi with Hesse. After Alonso, there is only one substitution left, so he does not dare to use it lightly now, because players are prone to injury when they are physically exhausted, and he has to leave a substitution to ensure that a player is replaced when he is injured.

On Barcelona's side, a substitution is also being brewed, Fabregas is a tackle and an attack throughout the game, running from the front to the back, and then from the back to the front, the physical strength spent is too serious, so there are also slight cramps at this time, and he is limping when he runs.

To ensure that the team did not concede goals in the final period, Fabregas could not be allowed to continue to play reluctantly, so Martino brought on Xavi.

Although Xavi's current level is not as good as before, his ability to control the ball and pass the ball is still a rare outstanding player in the midfield.

"Remember, your main task is to control the tempo, not to let Real Madrid have too many attacking opportunities, and then help the team drag it until extra-time, and then it's our chances."

"Don't worry, Coach, I understand." Xavi nodded, his eyes were a little appreciative, and he didn't actually play in several consecutive duels with Real Madrid, so he didn't have a direct perception of how strong Lin Yu was, so he was already half-convinced of Lin Yu's strength, and he felt that he was being boasted too strong.

A lot of times, when you watch the game on the sidelines, you don't think the players on the field are amazing, and even some arrogant people will think that what others can do, they can also go, but in fact, when they actually play against them, they will find that the opponent is really strong, it has reached the point of despair, and it is by no means blown out.

……

The managers of both sides are fighting off the field, using substitutions to implement their tactics, Lippi wants to score in the last period of time in order to win the championship smoothly, and Martino hopes to drag it out until extra time, but he replaced Xavi, there is another meaning, relying on Xavi's excellent passing skills, if he is lucky enough to let the frontcourt players score another goal, then he doesn't even have to play overtime, so he is equivalent to making two preparations.

However, no matter how many hands he prepared, but if he prepared his, Lin Yu would not be affected at all. He thinks Real Madrid's attack is getting weaker, and he feels that Real Madrid's stamina is in trouble. So much so that even Lin Yu's question was almost ignored, but it was an unavoidable fact. Lin Yu not only has enough physical strength, but also has the potential to change the situation on the court at any time.

And before Barcelona fans against Xavi. Alonso's insults and boos have already angered Lin Yu, how could he obediently watch Barcelona drag the game into extra time?

He also wants to win the championship early and go back to celebrate with his girlfriend.

There is still a lot of things that Lin Yu can do now, he has enough physical strength, so he can barely maintain the tactics that Lippi needs, and can barely continue to put pressure on Barcelona.

But he also knew that these were only auxiliary. His real role is to score goals, as long as he can score a goal, even if his teammates are already exhausted, he believes that he will break through the limit of his physical strength and become vigorous.

That's what he thinks, but the reality is a bit frustrating.

After another five minutes, Bale fell directly to the ground while running, not only losing the ball. And it seems painful.

The referee didn't stop the game at first, so Barcelona finally had a chance to fight back and Alba handed the ball to Neymar with a long ball, who dribbled past Carvajal. Then the ball was stuffed to Messi.

Messi in the middle, after making a few adjustments, is going to pass. Originally, at this time, Pedro was in a better position on the side. If he passes the ball, Pedro can shoot straight at goal. But Messi always had the idea of competing with Lin Yu for the Champions League Golden Boot in his heart, so he wanted to shoot by himself, but he wanted to shoot, and he couldn't shoot directly, and he had to bypass Ramos and Varane in front of him.

This time, however, he failed to break through, and although he managed to break through Ramos, he was cut off by a flying tackle by Raphael Varane.

What is the scariest thing about Varane?

That's because he's young, he's quick to receive, and he's quick to learn! In Chelsea's season, he also benefited a lot from Lin Yu, unlike other Real Madrid players, he and Lin Yu have been playing together for the third season, receiving the most from Lin Yu, in the time before this game, he has been very hard by Messi, but he is not discouraged, because he knows that there is only one more powerful king than Messi in the team, if even Messi can't prevent it, then his level is like this.

So he's been trying, not once, twice, three times.

So far, he has been passed by Messi at least seven or eight times, but until now, he has not given up and has been trying to modify his approach to defending Messi.

In the end, the hard work paid off, and this time, he successfully tackled the ball at Messi's feet.

But the ball was quickly snatched away by Xavi, and the opportunity still belonged to Barcelona, which is the current situation on the pitch.

……

Although Real Madrid has been attacking since the game came on the field, due to physical problems, some low-level mistakes often occur, such as Bale, after a fall, lost the ball, and caused his leg to limp, which looked quite uncomfortable.

Lippi had no choice but to make another substitution, which was also the last substitution for Real Madrid.

At this time, the pressure on Real Madrid's back line gradually increased, and Lippi could choose to replace a defensive player, of course, he could also choose to continue to strengthen the attack, all in his thoughts.

In the eyes of others, this decision is not good, but Lippi has already thought about it, after Bale is off, Di Maria will play, or an attacking player, there is nothing to say, Lippi is going to attack to the end!

He has already discussed with the club that this season, regardless of whether he can win the Champions League or not, he will retire, so this is not only Real Madrid's last chance, but also his last chance.

……

In the front court, teammates can give Lin Yu less and less help, because except for Di Maria, Hessai who just came on the field, and Mordric who came on the field in the second half, the physical strength of other players has become a problem, and Lin Yu has to choose to fight alone more often.

Although he is stronger than Messi in terms of the ability to fight alone, Lippi's tactics require the cooperation of the whole team, only when his teammates run out of position, Lin Yu's threat will be greater, and now his teammates' physical strength is obviously not good, and many times they can't be accurately in place, Lin Yu can only choose to go it alone and shoot by himself.

But there's nothing to be afraid of, in the copy of the ball king cultivator, he is basically always fighting those terrifying monsters alone, without any help to him, he has already practiced a strong individual combat ability, as long as his teammates can still walk, then there is still a chance!

If all his teammates are so tired that they can't move on the ground, then he can't go back, after all, he is called the Demon King, but he is not the real Demon King.

The more difficult the game, the more you can show the ability of a striker, just abusing vegetables, so what's the point.

The tougher the game, the more joy it will be to win the championship.

Lin Yu knows that Real Madrid's fans are waiting for him to make a move.

Fans of the Demon King Club are looking forward to his Champions League Golden Boot!

Of course, there are also people who are waiting to see his jokes and what to do, and he already has a bottom in his heart. (To be continued......)
