Chapter 244: Complete Victory
As Morris ran forward, he made a backward gesture towards Diego Costa, who immediately ran backwards. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Raul Garcia, who was holding the ball, passed the ball out.
Valencia defended Isco tightly and he certainly couldn't keep possession for long periods of time, so when he saw the ball pass to Isco, Diego Costa ran out and Maduro followed, while the other three Valencia defenders pressed forward.
Isco received the pass, Maduro pounced, and he pulled and dragged a set of movements, just to put enough pressure on the young boy in front of him, hoping to cut the ball directly.
But Isco didn't entangle with him, and shook his ankle directly against the ball, sending a delicate through stopper.
The ball flew past Diego Costa and fell behind the Valencia backline.
Raul Garcia immediately rushed out.
However, Isco was still affected by Maduro, and the pass was a little faster, and Raul Garcia did not have time to catch the ball, slowed down, and watched the ball fly out of bounds.
He waved his hand to Isco, and his strength increased.
Isco nodded in response.
Valencia coach Emery, seeing the football out of the sideline, a little relieved, just now made the offside was not successful, but the effect actually came out, if it was not for the offside run, the opponent's pass could not be so big.
Regardless, the offside position worked.
But he took it a little too early.
Soon Valencia coach Emery found that Atletico Madrid's direct plug has obviously increased the frequency and number of times, and the opponent is doing this to target Valencia's anti-offside play, maybe the chance of success against offside is not great, but it is enough to bring a success, especially Atletico Madrid has a goal ahead, if it scores another goal, Valencia really has no chance.
However, the game has come to this point, and Emery has no other way.
Valencia must insist on attacking, and on the premise of insisting on attacking, the defense can only do so, and if you want to turn the tide of the battle, in fact, the key is whether you can make a breakthrough in attack.
As long as they can equalize, Valencia can get back half of the initiative, as long as they can score another goal, the initiative is all in Valencia's hands, and when the score is down, every chance for Atletico Madrid is very important, and they must not play like this again.
So, in fact, the key is still in the score.
Atletico Madrid wanted to take chances to open up the gap, and Valencia wanted to sacrifice their defense to bring a strong attack to try to equalize.
The two teams are in contention.
The scramble on the field is also becoming more and more intense, no matter which player gets the ball, he must face the siege of the opponent's two players, the game has become tense and exciting, the fans in the audience have become serious, and the cheering sound seems to have been raised to a higher level.
Until the end of the first half, the two sides still did not score and ended the half 1-0.
In the latter part of the first half, Atletico Madrid were offside on eight occasions and Valencia played hard, paying the price of three yellow cards in order to defend Atletico Madrid.
When the first half of the game ended, reporters and TV commentators in the media, guests, all looked at each other, from the first half of the game, Valencia's chances were not big, their offside tactics were successful, but no one dared to guarantee that this tactic has been successful, the most important thing is that they worked hard in the half, but they failed to bring a goal, so in the second half, did Valencia really have a chance to score?
Those who support Valencia have an ominous premonition in their hearts.
Many people were surprised.
Before the start of the game, Valencia president Llorente publicly stated that the team would win, and he looked confident and seemed to know the result of the game, but when it came to the game, was Valencia so victorious?
――――
Wan Sheng is satisfied with the team's performance.
The 1-0 score is still second, the key is that the team is completely in control of the situation, suppresses the opponent, and after adjusting the tactics, the performance has been very good.
Wan Sheng praised all the players and explained that everyone continued to play like that in the second half, Atletico Madrid was the leading side, and the headache should be Valencia.
Valencia is different.
Emery ran into a problem.
Before he walked into the dressing room, President Llorente called him with only one request: "I don't care what you do, you have to win!" ”
Emery could only smile wryly.
The current situation of the team, anyone with a discerning eye can see, Valencia has little chance of winning, and Llorente continues to press like this, it will be difficult to force victory, so what should I do?
Like Wan Sheng's idea, Unai Emery can only 'keep the status quo' - how to play in the first half, how to play in the second half!
That's what he asks of the players.
So after the start of the second half, Valencia continued to use offside to defend and use big attacks to try to score.
Atletico Madrid have become familiar with Valencia's offside position, and they were 'offside' at first, but then Diego Costa dropped back early, successfully pulled out of position twice in a row, and also attracted the attention of the opposition defence.
In the 61st minute, Atletico Madrid finally scored the second goal!
It was a through ball from Isco, Valencia's offside tactic failed, Raul Garcia stepped in to receive the pass, and then faced the attacking Diego Alves, Raul Garcia lobbed the ball directly into the near corner on the left.
“gooooooooooooooooool!! Raul Garcia!! Atletico's second goal was scored by Raul Garcia! ”
"The score became 2-0!"
"So far, in the 61st minute of the game, in the past time, we can see that Atletico and Valencia have attacked and defended each other, but the big advantage is completely in the hands of Atletico Madrid, they continue to create chances, threaten the Valencia goal, on the other hand, Valencia has been trying to attack, but has not had too many good chances......"
"It's hard to imagine, this is a match between Valencia and Atletico Madrid, and it's hard to imagine that the gap between Valencia and Atletico Madrid is so big, just from the perspective of the game, Valencia has no chance at all, then it is even more difficult for us to understand why Valencia President Llorente can be so confident that the team will win!"
Not only the commentators were unimaginable, but the reporters in the media table were also surprised, although many people felt that Atletico Madrid had a great hope of winning at home, but judging from the game, it always felt that Atletico Madrid won a little too easily.
Anyway, the opposite side is also Valencia!
Valencia, who are dignified, can beat Barcelona in the Copa del Rey, and when facing Atletico Madrid, it seems that they are not opponents at all...... Atletico Madrid is already so strong?
Some people think of the matches between Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid and Barcelona, and suddenly feel that it is nothing.
Atletico Madrid can beat Real Madrid by a big score and beat Valencia at home, it's not a big deal, right?
It was a little bit of a relief to the wounded hearts of Valencia fans, but the next scene was definitely not what they wanted to see.
After Atletico Madrid scored two goals, they did not stop, perhaps the two teams did not adjust their tactical play, Valencia still kept attacking, Emery personally stood on the sidelines, with shouts to direct the game, but Valencia launched an offensive, and the defense could not be guaranteed.
Just three minutes later, Atletico Madrid scored again.
It was a solo show by Diego Costa, Atletico Madrid broke the ball at the back and launched a quick counter-attack on the spot, Morris handed it to Raul Garcia, Raul Garcia crossed, Diego Costa received the pass and ran straight towards the Valencia goal.
The only one who can stop Diego Costa is centre-back Lamy.
At the age of 20, Rami was a gardener working for a town in Corsica, joined Lille at the age of 21, and at the age of 22 he played for the French national team (albeit only in the B team) in the tricolor jersey, and gradually occupied the main position of the centre-back of the Lille club and the French national team.
In January 2011, Rami signed with Valencia, but instead of immediately moving to Spain, he continued on loan at Lille in the second half of Ligue 1, where he won the Ligue 1 title in 2010-2011.
In the last summer, Rami officially started his La Liga career.
Rami is fierce in defense, has a good sense of card position and filling, has excellent air dominance with his congenital tall stature, and is also a scoring weapon in set-piece tactics, these advantages allow Rami to occupy the main position, but his determination is also obvious, that is, he often loses concentration in defense, and occasionally wanders away from the team's defense, and gives the opponent a good chance to score because of mistakes.
In addition, perhaps not from the youth system, Rami is tall, but not very capable of confrontation.
Now he has suffered a loss of confrontation ability against Diego Costa's defense, Diego Costa broke through with the ball, Lamy's judgment was very accurate, but in the confrontation when they ran together, he was completely at a disadvantage, Costa shook and almost made Rami unstable and fell to the ground.
By the time Rami regained his centre of gravity, Diego Costa had already departed with the ball.
Rami hurriedly raised his hand to signal the opponent to foul, but the referee thought that it was a normal action to break through just now, and used his body to directly confront within the range of a reasonable collision, and Rami could only watch Costa dribble forward.
After shaking off Rami with the ball, Diego Costa will have to face goalkeeper Diego Alves.
Diego Alves looked fierce when he attacked, but the solo ball was not difficult for Diego Costa, he found the right time to save and kicked the ball into the far corner, Diego Alves made a judgment, but he had no time to react, and could only turn his head to watch the football fly into the goal.
“goooal!! 3 to 0!! ”
"Diego Costa!!"
Amid the shouts of Juan Andrés broadcast at the Calderón Stadium, Atletico Madrid fans celebrated the goal and the victory of the new league game. After the score became 3-0, it was clear to anyone that the game was completely out of suspense and Valencia could not have another chance to tie the score.
Wan Sheng also exhaled a long breath as he watched the game.
Although there were not many surprises about the victory, Valencia was still difficult to play, and Atletico Madrid could be regarded as a 'pass'.
――――
In the end, the match between the two teams ended 3-0, with Atletico Madrid beating Valencia by three goals at home.
Maybe the score doesn't matter, it's the process that matters.
Anyone who watched the game would feel that Valencia had little chance at the whole game, and they and Atletico Madrid were completely two grade teams, as if Atletico Madrid were destined to win from the start.
Not much media was surprised after the game.
No one thinks this is an upset, because Atletico Madrid's results are already better than Valencia's, and it is playing at home, and Atletico Madrid this season is more competitive than last season.
Their three-goal win over Valencia at home was not a big deal.
In the other league game played at the same time, Real Madrid beat Zaragoza 3-1 at home, which was more suspenseless than the match between Atletico Madrid and Valencia.
Real Madrid showed strong momentum.
After a five-goal defeat to Atletico Madrid and an away defeat to Barcelona, after two key defeats, Real Madrid's self-adjustment ability is not bad, and they quickly regained hope with consecutive victories, and now Real Madrid is only one point away from Atletico Madrid, and still has a good chance of competing for the top of the league.
"What Real Madrid needs is just a small mistake by Atletico Madrid...... "Marca" commented, "In the current league, Real Madrid's momentum is very good, and Atletico Madrid has suffered repeated setbacks, perhaps because they care about the so-called 'unbeaten streak', which makes Atletico Madrid perform poorly against small clubs, which is also Real Madrid's chance to overtake!" ”
In La Liga, apart from Real Madrid, even Barcelona have fallen behind, and they are five points away from Real Madrid, who are second in the league, and six points behind Atletico Madrid, who are in first place.
The gap between the two games is not easy to catch up.
Many media analyzed the league format, and they also believed that this season will be Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid, two capital teams competing for the league title, as for other teams, they can only act as spectators.
At the moment, the two teams are only one point apart.
In the direct confrontation between the two teams, Atletico Madrid has an absolute advantage, and the league is still unbeaten so far, due to a few draws, and a lot of points have been lost, but in the current form, the two teams want to separate the winners and losers, at least have to wait for the 33rd round of the league, the direct confrontation of the Madrid derby.
