Chapter 171

After the equaliser, Bayer Leverkusen's morale was boosted and they launched a fierce attack on Real Madrid's position. The same strategy as Mourinho's strategy against Real Madrid, Topmuller's tactics have never been passive defense, but to take the initiative, and defense cannot defend Real Madrid's attack group for a long time. The left side of Salgado's position has become the main attack point of Leverkusen, and Brodarić keeps attacking, breaking through Salgado very badly, and Real Madrid's right side defense is in turmoil.

In the 24th minute of the first half, after several attacks on Real Madrid's right side, Lao Lei won the ball at the back and a long pass to Sebezin on the right side. The abrupt switch paid off, as Sebetzen fed a high ball into the Real Madrid penalty area before Carlos could react. Bayer Leverkusen's striker Neuville once again beat Hierro to get the first spot, but unfortunately it was slightly over the crossbar and did not test Cesar. Bayer Leverkusen's powerful and impactful style of play made Real Madrid's backline very uncomfortable. At the age of 34, Hierro's dominance at the back is no longer so unshakable, and he looks a little wolf and weak against the tall and strong Neuville.

Bayer Leverkusen's style of play made Real Madrid's smooth ground coordination unable to play, and the power of Real Madrid's attack group could not be fully reflected. The only problem with this style of play is the body, but it is not a difficult problem for Bayer Leverkusen, at least in the first 80 minutes of the game. Real Madrid's only a few ground connections were also ruined by Bayer Leverkusen's fouls. In the 29th minute of the first half, Figo broke through with the ball in front. Brought down again by Basturk. Such an intermittent rhythm makes Real Madrid's players very uncomfortable. And because Leverkusen is not afraid of Real Madrid's high-altitude balls, this makes the fouls of Leverkusen players seem very decisive. Without the slightest hesitation.

In this way, after the restart, it was Bayer Leverkusen who had a slight upper hand. However, Lao Lei's mood is not too happy, although the situation is dominant, but he can see that Leverkusen's attack is a big problem, the roughness of the technique determines that Leverkusen can not push the football into the heart of the penalty area, although the non-stop high-altitude ball looks extraordinary, in fact, the effect is slowly weakening. And Lao Lei is more worried about Zidane. If he remembers correctly, the out-of-the-box goal came in the first half.

In such a situation, Lao Lei also tried to break through from the middle, but Bayer Leverkusen's players were very uncomfortable with Lao Lei's style of play, and his solo play without the cooperation of his teammates seemed a little difficult in front of Makelle and Sola. In the 37th minute of the first half, Lao Lei finally played a match with Ballack. Old Ray dribbled forward to the front, got in touch with Ballack, and got rid of Solari after a two-one. Directly faced with the Real Madrid backline. Old Ray's overhead pass went over Elgra's head and straight to the feet of Neuville. However, he unfortunately did not win against Cesar in the end, and the attacking Real Madrid goalkeeper kept his shot out of the line. Just when Lao Lei was happy that he could slowly integrate into Leverkusen's offensive system. Real Madrid's counter-attack started first.

Rao is a player of Bayer Leverkusen, and when he played nearly 40 minutes of the first half with such a costly tactic, he was also a little unable to support it. They need to take it slowly. And it was at this time that Real Madrid's counterattack quietly began. In the half of Bayer Leverkusen. As soon as Zidane received the ball, a delicate backheel was given to Raul's feet. Didn't give Lao Lei behind him anything to take advantage of. After winning the ball, Raul was about to burst into the box with a dunk from Zivkovic, whose tall height made his turn slow. Seeing that Raul was about to enter the penalty area, he was brought down by Lucio, who came over in time. This ferocious action also caused him to have a direct quarrel with Raul. Just when everyone stepped forward to persuade him to fight, Lao Lei's brain was spinning rapidly on the side, and he felt the danger.

In the 43rd minute of the first half, Bayer Leverkusen, who were not dominant at the moment, were hit hard, and Burdaric suffered a recurrence of a foot injury and was replaced by Berbatov. This is a great weakening of Leverkusen's frontcourt pressing tactics, and Berbatov's style of play is chic at best, lazy at worst. Berbatov had an embarrassing record of running the shortest distance in an international A-level event, with Dimitar Berbatov, who started with Bulgaria's captain, running just 2,032 metres in the race against Italy. Such a running distance is shorter than the running distance of the average goalkeeper, and it is not even comparable to the distance of a table tennis player playing a game.

Of course, it can't be said that there are no benefits, Berbatov's foot skills will make Leverkusen's technology at the edge of the penalty area more technical. But such a period of time is not good news, which means that the pressure on Real Madrid's back line will be greatly reduced, which will free up Carlos and the others for a certain period of time, and this is where bad things begin. In the 45th minute of the first half, after Zivkovic received a low shot from the edge of the box from the edge of the box from the back of Neevill's ball, which was picked up by Cesar, Real Madrid immediately began to launch a counter-attack.

In the midfield, Zidane and Figo and others played a series of exquisite small-scale combinations, and the gate formed by Lao Lei and Basturk was broken. Solari sent a through ball over the top in the middle, and just when everyone thought the ball was going to fly off the line, a bald head appeared in everyone's field of vision. As soon as this familiar rhythm appeared, Lao Lei's heart suddenly burst out, and he hurriedly ran towards Zidane on the other side of the penalty area. At this time, all the Bayer Leverkusen players thought Carlos would cross and reveal the unguarded Zidane on the top edge of the box.

The rest of the matter needs no elaboration, and the passing that Carlos did not handle well. Zidane made a very unconventional move, he volleyed straight into the air. The soccer ball was too high, and his body had an inclination that was different from usual. On his flank, there is Lao Lei, who is desperately running over, and behind him is Ballack who is running back to make up for the defense, and the bad thing is that Ballack may not have expected Zidane's choice, he slowed down his running speed behind Zidane, and every qiē was as if it was fate.

Old Thunder who can't catch up. Directly volleyed into the air, and crossed his body in the air. Hook your foot forward desperately, hoping to touch a football. However, in the end, he still did not stop the classic from happening. Zinedine Zidane's volley. It drilled into the corner of the top left corner of the goal and penetrated directly through the gate guarded by Bout. After this, Old Ray fell heavily on the grass, and then entered his eyes with Barack's directly stunned eyes. Lao Lei felt the pain in his body, and he had to sigh in his heart that this was fate.

To be scored such a superb goal in stoppage time is a very demoralizing thing for anyone. At this time, Lao Lei also had to admit that this person sometimes does have a certain number. But he was originally here to change his life, Lao Lei said to himself secretly in his heart. Fighting with the sky is endless, and Lao Lei's fighting spirit has not weakened in the slightest. However, he was very unhappy with his performance in the first half. After all, it didn't change the situation, and Real Madrid still took a 2-1 lead in the first half. Thankfully, there is a second half to be remedied.

In the dressing room at halftime, the first thing Topmüller did was to comfort his players, to be honest, no one could have predicted Zidane's goal in the first half, which required excellent strength and great luck, except for Lao Lei, of course. Falling behind at half-time, in a big scene like a Champions League final, is a very bad thing, and it is very heavy on the psychological pressure of the players who are behind. And this will indirectly affect the player's performance, which is a vicious circle that is very strict.

Faced with such a situation, Topmüller made a very bold decision to attack from the start of the second half. There is no general practice. Play until 60 minutes with the usual style of play before making a decision. "Guys, this game is more than just a Champions League final for us. It's been a whole season. Finally the honor that can be obtained. Think about the first two championships we lost. I can even imagine that after we lost this title. What the media will say. 'King of Sanya, Bayer Leverkusen'. what the king of Sanya! We can't allow that to happen!! What is the runner-up? That's shit, it's worthless! Go kill them! Go and win the honor that belongs to you!! Let's not fuck what Sanya Wang!! ”

This kind of motivation is perhaps the most intense for Bayer Leverkusen's players. No one is born willing to be a supporting role, maybe there are really so-called hermits in this world, but they will never appear on the football field. For a person, the biggest blow in their career is to fall when they reach the highest point, let alone fall twice in a row. Falling once is disappointing, falling twice is unacceptable, and falling three times is something that cannot happen even to death, which is called mourning in the art of war. For Bayer Leverkusen, they are now mourners. Lao Lei sat in the locker room and could feel the fire of the burning desire to win from these Leverkusen players, although at this time Leverkusen's strength was weakened by the curse of the system Sanya King by 5% again, but such desire and desire brought more than 5% to Leverkusen.

Wait until the start of the second half, first of all, Bayer Leverkusen's possession. As soon as Real Madrid came up, they faced a fierce attack from Bayer Leverkusen without even making any adjustments. After receiving Neuville's cross, Lao Lei took the ball and began to rush forward. In the face of Raul, who was robbing, Lao Lei buckled with his right foot, knocked his left foot, and let him pass his pressing, and then rushed forward directly.

At this time, Real Madrid's front had not yet opened, and Makelele and Solari immediately surrounded them. At this time, Lao Lei was dribbling the ball, without making any adjustments, and directly plugged through the gap between Makelele and Solari, and found Ballack. Immediately after that, he also accelerated, bypassing the two of them and supporting forward. At this time, Barak, Berbatov and Lao Lei played a smooth triangle match. After Berbatov received Ballack's pass, he directly knocked back to Lao Lei, who was inserted in front, and Lao Lei also did not stop the ball, and a straight plug would be given to Ballack's feet.

On the right edge of the penalty area, Ballack adjusted slightly and fired a powerful shot. With a strong force, the ball went straight to the near corner of the goal. Although Cesar was very attentive to save Ballack's shot and defuse the attack, it also shocked the Real Madrid defense in a cold sweat.

But with this attack, Leverkusen's morale has risen again.

The Real Madrid side, who were wiping a cold sweat, did not know that they would face a more violent Bayer Leverkusen next. (To be continued......)
