628 Intense National Derby

"Iniesta, Pepe is completely entangled with Iniesta."

"It was a surprise change for Mourinho to play Pepe at the back in this game, and he formed a back three with Essien and Alonso. And giving up Kaka, Kaka is currently sitting on the bench. Judging from the first 20 minutes of the game, the change was still very effective. Pepe was effective in containing Barça's attacking midfield. ”

Although there was a storm about Mourinho and Casillas before the game, Mourinho and Casillas both suppressed the matter. Of course, Florentino also wants to suppress this matter, after all, he is about to play against Barcelona. And Florentino, as the president of Real Madrid, of course, does not want to see his own coach and captain appear dirty.

Therefore, both sides tacitly reprimanded the media for being irresponsible. At the very least, they are all on the same page, to win the national derby. There is no match like this one. Mourinho is also doing a good job of how to fight against Barcelona step by step.

'Andres Iniesta was entangled in Pepe and couldn't break through, so he played the ball back to Xavi. Xavi, handed the ball to Arshavin and Essien came over. Real Madrid's defensive line is very deep. ”

Jose Mourinho knows a lot about Barcelona football, and he also knows a lot about Pep Guardiola's Barcelona. His current style of play is entirely designed for Barca.

"Barcelona's attack hit Real Madrid's defence. Mourinho looks like he's going to defend to the end. ”

Mourinho's stance is very low, which is completely different from the first time he met Barcelona last year. Jose Mourinho hoarded a 30-metre area in front of his goal, leaving Cristiano in front. Ronaldo, Ribery, Di Maria trident. However, even if the three of them stay in the front court, they will actively retreat to help defend.

"Xavi, got the ball. Harvey, Essien...... It was a collision and the referee blew for a foul. ”

Essien's physical strength is still very strong. Coming from the Premier League to La Liga, he hasn't forgotten to use the power in his body. When Xavi gets the ball, he goes straight up and rushes with his body. After all, Harvey was inferior to Essien in terms of strength, and was directly knocked down by Essien.

Seeing Xavi fall, the Barcelona players surrounded the referee, thinking that Essien's action was too big and should be given a yellow card. But Essien complained to the referee even more innocently, which is obviously Xavi's own lack of physical strength, what does it matter to me. In the Premier League, I played like this every day, and I didn't see the Premier League referee say that I was fouled.

However, the referee did not give Essien a yellow card as requested by the Barcelona player, nor did he heed Essien's complaint. The referee still considered it a foul.

"It was so intense at the beginning. Physical collisions, rarely seen in La Liga, abound in this game. ”

The national derby was all in the spotlight, but the game wasn't pretty. Real Madrid is defending with all their might, while Barcelona is attacking. The game was a bit dull. Barcelona continue to play hypnotically, while Real Madrid's players have been under Mourinho's one-year tutelage and have far more defensive attention than last year.

"As the game ticked by, Barcelona couldn't find a way to break through Real Madrid's defense. Of course, Real Madrid didn't have a shot on goal. ”

"Xavi, give the ball to Iniesta. Iniesta gave the ball to Ibrahimovic again, and Ibrahimovic shook his left foot and shot! ”

'The shot was floppy and Ibrahimovic was in too much of a hurry. After Ibrahimovic came to Barcelona, although his performance was not too bad, he was never able to integrate into the current style of play of Barcelona. Casillas got the ball. Casillas, kick-off with a big foot, this ball is a good pass. ”

Ibrahimovic is very capable individually. When he arrived at Barcelona this year, more than 50,000 people were at the Camp Nou to greet him. But he has some independence up front and doesn't have much cooperation with other Barcelona players. He didn't integrate into Barcelona's current style of play at all, and he didn't think about cooperating with people just after getting the ball, so he turned around and shot directly. ignored Messi and Arshavin, who came to support next to him. This made both Messi and Arshavin very unhappy.

After receiving the ball, Casillas immediately kicked the ball off. The kick-off was still good, and the ball was passed to Ribery on the left. Of course, it is also difficult for Ribery to receive the ball, and Barcelona have a strong ability to control the ball, but what is stronger is their ability to cover within a small area. The moment Ribery got the ball, several Barcelona players had already come to surround Ribery. Fortunately, Ribery stopped the ball beautifully, without any mistakes at all, and stopped the ball directly on his left foot. Otherwise, as long as there is a slight mistake, it will definitely be snatched away by the Barcelona players.

"Ribery, stop the ball. Alves, Harvey are here. Ribery, pick the pass! ”

Although Ribery's strength is outstanding, it is impossible to break through in front of so many people. So as soon as he stopped the ball, he picked up the ball and passed it to Cristiano in front. Ronaldo. However, the ball was not passed very well and did not pick up the Barcelona backline. Ribery's idea was to pick the ball through the Barcelona backline and let Cristiano. Ronaldo accelerates to complete a linkup.

It's a pity that under the siege of Barcelona players, Ribery's hasty pass was not very effective. Instead, it passed to Pique and Cristiano. Ronaldo's middle.

"Cristiano. Ronaldo, pretty! Cristiano. Ronaldo broke through Pique, Cristiano. Ronaldo is fast! ”

Ribery's cross didn't work, but Cristiano. Ronaldo suddenly accelerated in front of the ball, jumped up and pushed the ball forward. Originally Cristiano. Ronaldo and Pique were in contention for the ball, but Cristiano. Ronaldo was quicker and pushed the ball forward.

And the reaction was also faster than Pique's, and after the ball landed, it immediately accelerated past Pique's side. Puyol reacted the quickest and came over to make up for it. It's a pity for Cristiano. Ronaldo's explosiveness was too strong, he poked the ball again before Puyol, and then the man sped by. This ball Cristiano. Ronaldo completely relied on his strong body and super explosiveness to connect Puyol and Pique.

"Cristiano. Ronaldo, it's a one-on-one knife. Valdés, Valdés came up, Cristiano. Ronaldo shook Valdés. ”

Because Barcelona is an attacking team, their back line moves forward, and even Valdés, the goalkeeper, will be up front, because he also needs to cooperate with the defenders in the back. Therefore, he basically does not stay in the small **, he is outside the small **. This time Cristiano. Ronaldo made a single shot, and Valdés also stepped forward to intercept. But for Cristiano. For a speed striker like Ronaldo, it's easy to shake off the goalkeeper.

"Empty door, empty door!"

“gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

"Cristiano. Ronaldo, it was his first goal against Barcelona at Real Madrid. 1-0, Real Madrid lead Barcelona 1-0 away from home. It's totally Cristiano. Ronaldo's individual ability, he broke through Pique, Puyol, Valdés alone, and he is the best striker in European football at the moment. ”

Mourinho sees Cristiano. Ronaldo scored and clapped incessantly on the sidelines. Although tens of thousands of fans at the Bernabeu booed Mourinho, Mourinho didn't take it seriously at all.

That's it. Defeat them with this counterattack when they are at a weak point. Wait until Real Madrid win a few games, and then Real Madrid will not even need such counter-attacking tactics. It should be possible to battle the opposition in midfield.

"Cristiano is really outstanding."

Florentino smiled at Mendez next to him. Cristiano. Ronaldo was personally introduced by Florentino, and the better he performed, the more face Florentino had.

"It's his tactics that suit Jose."

Florentino smiled and nodded. Because Mendes is praising Cristiano. At the same time, Ronaldo praised Mourinho together. How could an old fox like Florentino not hear it.

With a one-goal lead, Real Madrid is still defending very hard, while Barcelona is besieging Real Madrid. However, Real Madrid's midfield defense is indeed very strong, Pepe is explosive, fast and physical. Essien is currently one of the best midfielders in world football, and with the cooperation of Alonso, the defensive ability of the three-man back combination is very strong. In addition, the referee's enforcement in this game is somewhat relaxed, which is more suitable for Pepe and Essien.

"As the game ticked by, Barcelona still couldn't break down Real Madrid's defense. However, it seems that Barcelona are very patient, and they still keep reversing the ball. ”

Patience, more than patience, Barcelona is such a way of playing. Keep pouring the ball in the midfield, looking for Real Madrid's openings. However, Mourinho's defensive system is still good, and he was not confused by Barcelona's inverted ball.

'Sergio Busquets, give the ball to Xavi. Xavi handed the ball to Andres Iniesta and Essien came up. Iniesta, heel ...... Messi came in from the right! ”

Iniesta was the most tired in this game, and he couldn't break through in the middle at all. Facing the grappling of Essien and Pepe alone, he simply couldn't play to his strengths. At this time, Messi on the right broke into the middle, and Iniesta handed the ball to Messi.

"Essien was left behind. Andres Iniesta's backheel is beautiful, and there is too much understanding between him and Messi. Messi burst in. Messi, Messi smashed the ball, Alonso couldn't block Messi. Messi continues to break through, Pepe, Pepe trips Messi! ”

Messi's breakthrough in the small space was outstanding. It's just that Real Madrid's defense has always been too tight, so Messi can't find room to break through. After all, he is a man, not a god, and it is impossible for him to break through the tight defense of the entire Real Madrid alone. In the current world football, there will be no superstars like a dragon. Not because of the degradation of the players' strength, but because modern football tactics are becoming more and more rigorous, and there is not so much room for players to break through.

But this time Iniesta's delicate combination with Messi, especially Iniesta's sudden heel, threw Essien over. And even Alonso next to him shook it, which gave Messi a chance to break through. But just broke through Alonso and wanted to break through to face the defenders, he was directly knocked out by Pepe. And when Pepe hit Messi, he also stretched out his foot and tripped Messi who was about to break through.

'A free kick, it's a free kick. The referee showed a yellow card, and the referee thought Pepe's action was too big. ”

Pepe is really tough. Playing at the back, he used his ferocious style of play not only to restrain Iniesta, but even Arshavin was restrained by him. Judging from the performance so far, Pepe's performance in this game is one of the best for Real Madrid.

But Pepe's movements were too big. So much so that the commentator on the Catalan side was very angry and said: "Pepe should have received a yellow card a long time ago." No, he should have been sent off with a red card long ago. It's too late to give a yellow card now. ”

Messi was directly knocked into the air by Pepe, so Messi rubbed his ankle when he stood up. Pepe's strength is too great, Messi's body is actually not too bad, and he can resist ordinary collisions. But Pepe's strength is too great, and it is definitely not something that Messi can resist.

'Free kick, it's a good position. Who will Barcelona take this free-kick, Messi came up. It seems that Messi took this free kick! ”

The current Messi has a very special position at Barcelona. Messi can get 13 million euros after tax in Barcelona, and it can also see Messi's status in Barcelona. Messi is one of the few players in Barcelona who can shoot at will in **, and can also take penalty kicks and free kicks.

"Messi, Messi!"

“goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

"Messi's free-kick was very unexpected. Messi unexpectedly took a flat kick and Casillas' vision was blocked. Barcelona, they equalised. Barcelona equalised thanks to Messi's free-kick. Barcelona didn't have many chances in this game and it was nice to be able to take advantage of the free-kicks. ”

The National Derby, that's the National Derby.

"We are all lucky. In such a competition, I saw the performance of the superstar. Cristiano. Ronaldo and Lionel Messi are the best performers in European football at the moment, and their performances will determine the outcome of the game. It's just a pity that Kaka was on the bench and we couldn't see how fast Kaka was galloping. I hadn't heard of Kaka's injury before the game, and Coach Mourinho probably chose to do so in order to strengthen Real Madrid's defence. (To be continued.) )
