828 Fierce battles are raging
Bosque began to work out his second-half tactics after announcing the replacement of Metzeld.
He doesn't expect to be able to win games by filling in the defense.
Just like the situation encountered by many opponents, Real Madrid is now behind the score, and the starting point of adjustment must be to strive for goals, equalize the score, and achieve a comeback!
Marcelo will be the player to replace Metzeld.
But it's not about Marcelo playing at centre-back, it's simply replacing one big hole with another.
Heinze moved to central defence, with Marcelo replacing Heinze at left wing-back.
The purpose of this substitution adjustment is clear at a glance.
Strengthen the flank attack!
Real Madrid's attack on the left side this season is mostly dominated by Sneijder and Qin Xiong taking turns to wreak havoc on the left side of the front, and rarely play cross tactics on the left side.
But it doesn't mean that Real Madrid doesn't want to play like this, and when it comes to cultivating offensive means in this area, Bosque's key player is Marcelo.
In some non-important games, Bosque will give Marcelo more opportunities to hone and improve his ability in the last game.
Now it's time for Marcelo to contribute to the team.
In the second half, the two sides changed sides and fought again.
Real Madrid made the substitution.
Marcelo, who had just debuted, quickly got his chance.
In the 47th minute of the game, after Qin Xiong and Sneijder switched positions, he faced Miguel's defense on the left side, and Qin Xiong shook the ball out of the gap and stuffed the ball straight to the bottom line of the side.
Marcelo went down at a brisk pace, he didn't stop the ball and crossed directly.
The football was kicked out of the bottom line by him, high and far, the quality of the cross?
Sorry, there isn't any quality.
Marcelo's first touch of the ball ended in such a poor performance. He felt that he had lost face, and was running back with his head down, and when Qin Xiong walked backwards on the way, he said to him: "Don't be nervous, just like in training!" The opponent is not strong at all, you have to show your true level. ”
After hearing this, Marcelo nodded at Qin Xiong, his heart warm. He picked up speed and returned to his defensive position, then put on a serious face and calmed down to face the game.
When Pepe and Heinze pair up as a center-back combination, at least Real Madrid's back line has speed, and it is not as easy to be penetrated by Valencia as Metzelde's lack of speed, and Pepe and Heinze's defense is extremely aggressive, although it is easy to make fouls, it can suppress Valencia's slightly vulnerable attack group in terms of momentum, which makes them jealous.
51st minute of the game. Villa dropped back to meet Silva's pass, and he was viciously intercepted by Pepe under Diarra's close press, and finally fell to the ground, although the referee awarded a foul on the Real Madrid player, but Real Madrid were not afraid of their opponents' set-pieces.
Silva converted a direct free-kick from the edge of the box, but his shot didn't test Casillas.
In the 55th minute of the game, Real Madrid launched an indiscriminate bombardment of the Valencia goal after forming a possession advantage in the midfield!
The advantage of Marcelo's appearance is that Real Madrid are not only able to play depth in attack, but also tear apart the lateral width of Valencia's defence.
In the past, only Ramos and Arjen Robben were able to tear up the width of the defence on the right flank. Now with Marcelo, Real Madrid can also make the opponent have to divide the defense on the left wing!
Then it is easier to create a gap in the middle lane.
Guti played a diagonal pass to Sneijder in front. The latter then kicked the ball out and handed it to Qin Xiong.
Qin Xiong also kicked the ball, but his ball was a diagonal stopper!
The ball rolled between Miguel and Canela and Marcelo cut inside to stop the ball and looked up in the box before he crossed with his feet.
The ball went around the head of goalkeeper Hildebrand and the Valencia defenders rushed to the back of the box.
Raul couldn't touch the ball with Alexis' interference, and Alexis also failed to touch the ball. The ball bounced off the ground and flew to the touchline on the right.
Robben appeared there to stop the ball and faced Marchena's press, and he took a leisurely step back to dodge Marchena's press before sending in another cross with his left foot.
The ball was also a pass from the back of the net, when Marcelo crossed earlier. Valencia's defence has been concentrated on the right side of the penalty area.
Now Robben crosses again, or find the back point, and there is a huge gap in the left side of the Valencia penalty area!
Even Hildebrand's attempt to run to the back of the goal is too long!
The Valencians were horrified to see Qin Xiong in the area where the ball landed.
Qin Xiong jumped directly in the hard running, but after the jump, he shouted helplessly to Robben in his heart: Alger, if you don't rub the curveball, you will die!
The football that he was originally able to touch with his header fell with internal spin, so that Qin Xiong's header was pressed down and missed the football!
But before Qin Xiong landed, the football flew into the goal!
After Qin Xiong landed, he turned his head to look, only to see Sneijder landing in a step, the two almost collided together, Qin Xiong reached out to catch it, and the two hugged each other and fell to the ground.
The ball is in!
Sneijder's header!
The helplessness in Qin Xiong's heart vanished.
He and Sneijder laughed as they lay in the Valencia goal.
Marcelo was the first to rush to the ground to congratulate Sneijder on his goal, he was so excited, and it was an honour and a pride for him to be able to play alongside the main players in such a crucial game.
He enjoyed it so much!
"Real Madrid equalised! In the second attack, Robben's cross from the right flank was delivered to the back of the goal, and Valencia's defense in this area can be said to be zero!
Although Qin Xiong missed the chance to score, Sneijder safely sent the ball into Valencia's goal with a header.
3:3! ”
A look of stubbornness appeared on the faces of the Valencian generals.
Real Madrid is indeed a team that will not be easily defeated, but the Bat Army will never surrender today!
It's just that sometimes the competition is not just a contest of will and courage.
Valencia continued to try and create great scoring chances after the restart.
Ramos got tangled with Silva in the 62nd minute when he almost savagely cut the ball off Silva's feet, and after losing his balance, Silva knelt on the ground and complained to the referee about Ramos' foul, but the referee signaled that Ramos had not committed a foul.
Although Ramos' slightly impatient cross failed to create a threat, Real Madrid's defensive aggression was already starting to make it difficult for Valencia to adapt.
It can be said that Silva and Joaquin, the poor confrontation between these two in the Bat Army is an important factor that allows Real Madrid to suppress the opponent with momentum! (To be continued.) )
