Chapter 1033: San Cassie? Lao Tzu is not convinced!
Zidane is actually quite nervous in his heart, but his trust in the players on the field is greater than his current nervousness, so even if he is very worried that he will really be scored by Atletico Madrid, he has to hold back and believe that his players can score first.
Perhaps it is this trust of his that makes the players on the pitch work extra hard.
After the initial chaos, Real Madrid quickly got into shape and controlled the tempo of the game.
Real Madrid now is a self-centered style of play, in short, it is to respond to all changes with the same, even if you change a lot, I just have to stick to my own style of play, and that is enough.
Miracles can be done, but they can't!
Only by maintaining your own style and leading your opponent by the nose will you be able to achieve maximum success.
In fact, when the game entered the thirtieth minute, Real Madrid's advantage was already relatively large, not only in possession, but also in the number of threatening balls, and finally surpassed Atletico Madrid.
The thirty-fifth minute of the first half.
Atletico Madrid launched a quick counterattack again, and the ball was handed to Villa's feet, but it was broken by a flying tackle by Luiz, who was holding back his anger, and the ball was broken very neatly and beautifully, without the slightest suspicion of foul, so the referee did not pay attention to it, but signaled the game to continue.
After the Luis tackle, Harvey. Alonso quickly stepped forward to control the ball and then passed to Marcelo, who was cut in on the wing, and Marcelo and Cristiano. Ronaldo made a one-two and easily took the ball to Atletico Madrid's half.
This kind of cooperation has been practiced countless times off the field. That's the benefit of sticking to your own style of play, where you and your teammates don't have to make eye contact at all. Not to mention, everyone knows what to do next. Because that's what has been honed in training.
Cristiano. After Ronaldo got the ball, he did not continue to pass, but made a feint, and then knocked the ball to Lin Yu in the middle with the outside of his right foot.
Because of the fear of Atletico Madrid's players intercepting in the middle, the Portuguese's pass is very powerful and very fast.
Juan Mata tried to keep the ball out but couldn't.
And when the ball approached Lin Yu at a very fast speed, Godin stood behind Lin Yu very smartly, and he estimated that Lin Yu would receive the ball. It's definitely not going to be good because the ball is too fast.
Even the commentator said regretfully: "Ronaldo's ball was not passed well, the power was too great, and Lin Yu couldn't catch it at all." ”
But what happened next made them speechless, with such a fast ball speed, Lin Yu only gently retracted his foot a little, and then saw that the ball stopped steadily in front of his feet like an obedient good child.
Football inside. The most test of stopping the ball is the high ball and the fast ball, and the ability to stop the ball is also the basic ability of every player, this ability seems to be inconspicuous, but in fact it plays a very big role in the game.
In a league where the level is not good. You can often see a player stopping the ball to a meter away, and the high ball is often overheaded, which is very abnormal. It shows that they are not only not skilled in technology, but also unwilling to train hard. Stopping the ball is completely practiced, when you can stop a fast ball steadily. If you don't give your opponent any chance, then you're out of the game.
Lin Yu's current stopping skills are absolutely world-class, he didn't give Godin any chance, Godin tried to wait for him to take advantage of the ball after he stopped the ball, but in the end he could only be disappointed.
Once the ball is stopped, the next thing you can do is whether you possess the ball, pass the ball or shoot at goal, and if the ball is not stopped well, a lot of great scoring opportunities may be wasted.
Recently, this situation often occurs in the league, a player has successfully entered the penalty area against offside, and his teammates have passed a beautiful ball, as long as he stops the ball, then the ball is basically ninety percent sure that it can be scored, but it is this last time, the ball is actually stopped, and the good opportunity is wasted.
Of course, Lin Yu would not make such a mistake, so his ball stopped very beautifully, and even chose to turn around the moment he stopped the ball.
He didn't excel!
Godin thought he was going to pass, Miranda thought he was going to pass, Courtois even thought he was going to pass, but he didn't do that, he shot straight with his left foot.
Now Lin Yu is only a dozen meters away from the goal, this distance, he has enough confidence to shoot and score, although there are defenders in the Atletico Madrid penalty area, but the space is still very large, as long as you grasp the speed of the ball and the route of the shot, then it is really not difficult for him to score.
Just because Lin Yu stopped the ball very beautifully, his shooting action was also very comfortable.
Flicked the ball with his right foot, then suddenly turned around and picked up his left foot to volley, the ball flew like a ghost in the night and flew through the defense in the Atletico Madrid penalty area and towards the goal.
Courtois reacted quickly enough, but he only touched the ball but couldn't clear it, and the ball eventually slid into the net to score.
After the shot, Lin Yu stretched his neck to look at the goal, and after finding that the ball had scored, he screamed excitedly, and then clenched his fist fiercely and hit an uppercut into the air.
This goal is not easy to come by, in the first 30 minutes, although Real Madrid was in power, but it was very dangerous, there was a lot of noise in front of the goal, and it always felt like it would lose the ball first, which also made the players of Real Madrid feel bottomless, but now it is different, Lin Yu's goal seems to have given no one a reassurance.
Zidane wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and showed a comfortable smile, his pressure is not small, if he is scored first by Atletico Madrid, or loses this game, then he will be the most criticized after the game, others will say that he does not act, that he is a useless manager, and he does nothing when the team is in trouble.
But now it's different, the media will say that he is unfathomable, and they will say that he is as stable as Mount Tai. will say that he is confident, and there will be few criticisms of him anyway.
……
Unlike Zidane. At the moment when Lin Yu scored, Simeone hugged his head helplessly. Then he put it down again and made a motion with his back facing the sky - oh no!
Although it is not yet completely over, it is really not a good thing for Atletico Madrid to be scored by Real Madrid first.
He's a little annoyed with Diego now. Why didn't Costa take advantage of the previous two shots, if he did, the score would not be the same as it is now, and even the situation on the field would have changed radically.
He looked at Diego. Costa, who found the current Spanish centre-forward also looked annoyed, shook his head and felt that it was better not to blame. Anyway, it's already happened, and it's up to Diego to do the next. Costa equalised, and it didn't do any good to blame him.
It's just that the situation is undoubtedly more serious for Atletico Madrid, which is the last thing Simeone wants to see, but it happened.
……
Lin Yu looked very excited after the goal, the more difficult it is to score a goal, the more exciting it can be, so the excitement that Lin Yu is showing now also happens to set off the mood of the whole team. It's hard to get ahead, and it's a good start.
In the past few seasons, whether it is Barcelona, Real Madrid or Atletico Madrid, they have basically been stable in terms of abuse. There are not many occasional overturns in the gutter, and it may only be once or twice a season. So what really determines the ownership of the championship is the six strong dialogues.
If you can score more points in these six matches, you will be significantly closer to the championship. This is another reason why Lin Yu is so happy.
Atletico Madrid is a title rival, if you can beat Atletico Madrid twice. It's very helpful for the morale of the team and even for the whole team to win the championship.
……
Real Madrid's players are celebrating with joy.
Atletico Madrid's players are a little annoyed with their hands on their hips, panting, they are now a little confused, conceding the ball, whether to attack with all their strength and try to equalize, or to maintain this kind of defense, to hold on to this not big gap, and then still rely on counterattacks to score?
However, Atletico Madrid is a championship team after all, although the players are a little confused, but the morale has not dropped in the slightest, originally, when you come to the Bernabeu Stadium, you don't expect to be able to get out of the game, the problem is to play Atletico Madrid's fighting spirit and morale, if you can get away with the equalizer, it is still very helpful to win the championship.
What are the teams in La Liga that are not afraid of Real Madrid?
I'm afraid there are only three teams, one is Barcelona, one is Atletico Madrid, and the other is Athletic Bilbao.
As a championship team, Atletico Madrid still has to leave the title race as soon as possible if they don't have the determination to win at the Bernabeu Stadium.
The Atletico Madrid players know this very well.
Ability? Not necessarily.
Not as worth as much as you? Playing football is not about value, but about strength!
So even if they are behind, their determination has not changed, basically most of the Atletico Madrid players still plan to equalize the score, and they can't let Real Madrid play more and more smoothly, which will be very bad for Atletico Madrid.
Simeone is very satisfied with the reaction of the players, as long as the confidence is not lost, as long as the determination is still there, then he is not afraid of falling behind, he is afraid that as soon as the team falls behind, the players will immediately lose their fighting spirit, which can be seen in many teams and Real Madrid games, once those teams fall behind, it seems that they have completely lost the fighting spirit to continue fighting, let Real Madrid knead, but there is no reaction at all, it feels like a dead man.
He and his players have an idea, although the tactics of defensive counterattack will not change, but it can definitely strengthen the attack, because only by strengthening the attack can we avoid being pressed by Real Madrid all the time, and if Lin Yu is too close to his own penalty area, it will be a matter of time before he is broken again.
Simeone also made a special move to Diego. Costa shouted to the sidelines and said to him: "Don't continue to care about the previous mistakes, don't care if they score or not, then, just equalize, I believe in your ability!" ”
……
When the game restarted, Real Madrid unexpectedly found that Atletico Madrid not only did not lose their fighting spirit after conceding another goal, but also did not choose to shrink, but played wave after wave of offensive climax.
It's still a counter-attack, but it's clear that before it was more defensive, and now it's more offensive.
Real Madrid's backline was severely challenged, and Lin Yu had to drag back to help defend, which made Real Madrid's attack obviously blocked.
And soon, Diego. Costa played for the equaliser, finding the back of the net with a long-range shot from around 20 yards out of the box just before the end of the first half.
San Cassie?
Lao Tzu is not convinced!
Diego. Costa's goal was even more exciting than Lin Yu, and he took off his shirt, showing his strong muscles, and demonstrated to the Real Madrid fans in the stands.
yes, he wasted two great chances to score, and now it's finally a goal, and it was Casillas's goal, or a long-range shot, can he not be excited? (To be continued......)
