For Valencia, who mainly focus on changing the rhythm of attack and defense and counterattacking quickly, it is very important to know how to take advantage of it, because it is not their style to take the initiative and fight quickly.

There is no shame in learning to be a turtle, as long as it is a turtle that can bite, because not everyone has the talent to be an eagle.

Obviously, under Benitez's tutelage, Valencia has done a very good job at this point. The formation retracted, the two full-backs also retreated to help the defence, leaving only the hero alone to act as a-stirring stick in the front, and Valencia's impregnable defensive formation was displayed in front of the Atletico players.

It was only then that the Atletico players were given a moment of respite and regained their senses. However, the score they are facing at the moment is no longer 0:0, but 0:1. In the current La Liga, no one wants to play against Valencia in a backward state, let alone Atletico Madrid, even Real Madrid and Barcelona are no exception.

As a maverick team in La Liga, Valencia has made the entire Spanish football scene see their maverick power in recent years.

However, there is no way, Atletico Madrid, as the lagging side, must attack, and there is no room for negotiation at all.

However, since the time had only been played for less than 10 minutes, they were still calmly controlling the football at this time, slowly looking for opportunities to attack.

It's not that they don't want to press on the attack, but they are afraid of Valencia's sharp counterattack.

In this way, the game entered the usual rhythm of the game after Valencia took the lead, slow and dull, just like the calm sea on the surface, no matter how noisy the sea was, it was calm above.

Then, I don't know when, a shocking wave will be set off, and the passion that everyone has accumulated will detonate in an instant.

This is Valencia's football philosophy and tradition.

Faced with such a situation, it is inevitable that there will be shrill boos from the stands of the Calderón Stadium from time to time, which is not only to mock Valencia's "cowardice", but also to express the fans' dissatisfaction.

In La Liga, apart from Valencia fans, who have been plagued by defensive counter-attacking football since the Cooper era, there are not many fans of teams who can tolerate the team playing this dull style of football, and Spain is the soil of attacking football. Here, the delicate and gorgeous foot technique is the main dish, and no matter how good the defense is, it can only be used as a side dish.

If the fans of the average mid-tier team in La Liga are like this, let alone the fans of Atletico Madrid, who have a strong and sensitive self-esteem of Spain's third giant. Although they were still working hard in the second division in the first two seasons, this thing is just like the national cultural tradition, and it can't be changed.

However, the people watching from the sidelines are not interesting, but the people who play on the field must not have such thoughts. Whether it's defending or attacking, unless they are deliberately lazy, they really don't have time to be bored with the super fast defensive pace of real games.

On the pitch, they may have time to rest or not rest physically, but their minds are constantly on the ground, and no one knows if football will come to you in the next moment, so you have to be ready at all times.

And in this kind of scene at this time, the forwards of both sides are undoubtedly the hardest ones. In addition to not being able to get the ball, you have to think about the solution to the problem by yourself, and in the constant attempt, look for or seek luck, and hit the answer.

A striker needs to rely on his teammates, but not completely on his teammates, teamwork is important, but it is also about the individual player. Even a point-grabbing striker like Lao Lei, who needs the help of his teammates the most, needs to be alone at this moment and think of something else.

Maybe he doesn't necessarily succeed, but to try or not to try, it's a matter of attitude. Whether it's on the football field or in the real world, the more you try, the more possibilities you have.

At this time, Torres and Hero are both trying, one is the trailing chaser, the other is the temporary leader, and no matter which one wants to win, they know that the matter is not a foregone conclusion, and everything is still possible.

First of all, Torres, with Albelda and Baraja's ground blocking, followed by Ayala and Marchena's high-altitude interception, these two midfielders and two central defenders, a total of four defensive phalanx, just like the legendary formation in Chinese mythology, Torres and his forward partner Serbian goalscorer - Bonovic are firmly locked in it, severing the connection between them and their teammates at Atletico Madrid.

So far in the game, this strong interception lineup has made them have a pitiful number of touches. Moreover, in those few chances, as soon as they touched the ball, they would be destroyed by the opponent's strong blocking ability, either passing back or losing the ball, and there was no threat at all.

This isn't the first time Torres has played against Valencia's defence, but he's still a bit of a wolf, a bit of an overwhelmer.

But a genius is a genius, you can prevent him for a while, but you can't prevent him for a lifetime, because no one knows when their heads will pop up with some incredible inspiration.

Clearly, Torres is such a person.

After several failed attempts, Torres finally changed his mind in the 17th minute of the first half, pulling his position out of the penalty area, going outside the box to receive the ball and deal with it.

At this time, one of the things about him that makes the hero quite envious is reflected, that is, skillful dribbling skills and delicate foot skills.

At this time, French midfielder Lucin just kicked a long ball to Torres, which was a slightly embarrassing half-high ball that was not easy to stop, but Torres had his own ideas.

Facing the incoming football, Torres leaned on Ayala behind him and raised his right knee. This is not a normal receiving position, so his subsequent handling of the ball and the Dong nationality is not conventional.

After hitting the knee head-on, the ball immediately bounced in the direction it came from at a rapid speed. At first glance, Torres' foot was a bit out of order, because the ball had to be parked at least 3 meters away from his body.

But, that's what he wants.

As soon as his knee touched the football, he waved it off, grabbed the hand on his jersey, and then accelerated violently, chasing the football. This is Ayala's remedy after instinctively sensing that something is wrong, but as the captain of Atletico's key training, he is not a player with such scarce experience as a hero, and he knows very well the little tricks of an old fritter like Ayala.

After knocking out Ayala's dishonest hand, Torres' acceleration ability was fully revealed, and in a few big strides, he chased in front of the football. However, Marchena and Albelda had already arrived at his side, and the deep understanding between them was evident at this moment, as soon as Torres stopped to handle the ball, they would wait for an opportunity to destroy the football at Torres' feet.

However, Torres is not worried about this at all, although he is not yet to the point of being a master of art, but it is still appropriate for a newborn calf not to be afraid of tigers.

Before and after the soccer ball, his left foot was firmly planted on the turf, and his long right leg swung with it, full of explosive power.

At this moment, if the hero can take a closer look, he can find that Torres at this time is exactly like him. Although the appearance is different, the spirit is really similar.

His face was full of murder, and his eyes revealed a confidence as sharp as a sword! At this moment, they are all the same, the same without thinking about the possibility of failure! Just as confident to the point of being self-serving!!

"Bang!"

With a dull sound, the football that had just bounced off the ground immediately rushed to the upper right corner of the Valencia gate with a strong momentum, so fast that the fans could only see a vague shadow.

It was a successful shot of decent quality, and the ball didn't go off the back of the net and headed straight for the top right corner. Unfortunately, Canizares stopped him just before he reached the finish line.

Although Real Madrid's young goalkeeper Casillas took away his position as Spain's main goalkeeper because of the nonsensical perfume bottle cutting his foot, Canizares is still the world-class goalkeeper, and a perfect and fast side save successfully blocked Torres's shot from the bottom line.

"Uh-huh!!"

His successful save, which made the exclamations that Atletico fans were expecting, suddenly turned into a sea of sighs. However, they soon reacted and gave them a warm round of applause for the golden boy who was holding his head in the middle of the field to show encouragement.

With a hero goal in front of them, Torres' beautiful getaway and direct volley is invaluable to them, because that's where they can unreservedly support Torres.

If it weren't for Torres, which young goalscorer in La Liga would dare to stand up and share the victory and defeat with the hero of the moment?

In addition to Atletico Madrid fans, Sosa also said in admiration: "It's a pity! Torres' move to get rid of the plus shot was already very beautiful and consistent, but unfortunately, it was Canizares standing in front of him. It's beautiful! It's almost like a textbook getaway from the shot by the center! ”

Although I also admired Torres's amazing performance in my heart, the hardcore British fans still firmly stood their ground, and they couldn't get used to the old partner's praise of Torres, and said-for-tat: "Torres's performance is very exciting, but I believe that Hero will not let him steal all the limelight, and he will definitely fight back!" A counterattack that shocked the entire Calderón Stadium in a cold sweat!! ”

In the end, he was a die-hard fan of the hero, and he guessed the hero's mind at once.

From the handshake at the pre-match ceremony, the competition between the hero and Torres has become a silent tacit understanding between the two in private.

Although scoring goals and helping the team win is the hero's goal, the strong competitive spirit made him add another goal to the goal, winning Torres! Overwhelm Torres!!

"Humph!"

After a cold snort in disbelief, the hero withdrew his gaze from Torres and refocused on Atletico's door.

I want to win! I want to win!!

His gaze became hot again, and the strong goal ** could almost burn through the net!

In his eyes, it was as if there were two raging fires!

It's so hot that people can't help but retreat!!
