Chapter 212: The Battle of the Bernabeu (Part I)
Ranieri sat quietly in the dugout after the start of the game, while Baldano on the other side was also calm - they were not fledgling novice coaches, and they were all quite mindful of their own image, and there was no need to jump up and down like a monkey at the beginning of the game to attract the attention of others with various body language.
Because the two managers are the main lineup, the players of the two teams do not have much problem in terms of tacit understanding, they are quite familiar with each other, they know how to attack and defend during the game, and who should give the ball to organize as soon as they get the ball - for Real Madrid, their organizational core is Michel, the representative of Real Madrid's Five Eagles; For Fiorentina, it was the German Effenberg who controlled the pace of the game, and the role of Portuguese striker Rui Costa was more to assist the "Tiger" to control the game and tear apart the opponent's defense with passes, after all, the Portuguese midfielder was still more reliable than the German Tiger in the link of passing the ball.
At the beginning of the game, Costa and Effenberg on the Fiorentina side helped the team firmly control the ball and advance step by step towards Real Madrid's half - Michel was also a top playmaker when he was young, but with the increase in age and the sharp decline in physical fitness, he can only rely on his rich experience to help the team, and there is not much help for clamping down on Fiorentina's midfield, and his central partner Hierro has begun to gradually transform into a defensive player, But he obviously hasn't fully adapted to this positioning, and there will inevitably be some holes in defense (Hierro played as a center forward when he first debuted, and after joining Real Madrid, he switched to playing as a midfielder, and as a result, he scored 21 goals in the 91-92 season, which is evident in his attacking power), so the central partner of these two players does not have too many problems in attack, but even if Hierro is capable in defense, he is difficult to beat with two fists and four hands.
As for Real Madrid's two full-backs, Enrique and Amavisca, Enrique is good enough to say that he is not afraid of going head-to-head with Fiorentina players despite his physical qualities; But on the other side, Amaviska is a cup, 1.82 meters tall but weighs only 68 kilograms, he can only be regarded as a lightweight among football players, and his enthusiasm to participate in defense is not very high, so he does not have any advantage in the scramble
However, it was Real Madrid, who were passive at the beginning, who were the first to create a killing chance.
Just five minutes into the game, Effenberg and Costa made a one-two collision in the middle of the wall, only to be intercepted by Alcorta, who passed the ball directly to Amarwisca on the left, and Real Madrid launched a counterattack!
Amavisca started to break through from the left with the ball, as the team's left attacker, he was not fast with the ball, and more used his delicate dribbling jishu to create a threat, so when he rushed to the position parallel to Fiorentina's big penalty line, Fiorentina's back line was already in place.
Amavisca faced a well-rounded Billindeli and flicked the ball back and forth unhurriedly, while scanning the Fiorentina penalty area out of the corner of his eye, looking for space to create a killing chance.
Billindelli is cautiously staring at Amavisca in front of him, Ranieri has instilled a lot of information about Real Madrid players in the past few days, for the wide player who scored ten league goals for Real Madrid last season, Billindelli seems quite cautious, deliberately put a distance in front of him in order to prevent the Spanish winger from breaking through his own defense and cutting inside to hit the goal.
But Billindelli guessed wrong, Amarvisca's weapon is obviously not only the shot after the break, but also the precision of the cross, which is also his foundation in Real Madrid, the top team in Spain.
A cross with a huge arc cleverly crossed Nesta's head and smashed into the head of Zamorano, who was fighting with the Italian centre-back!
Although the Chilean striker is only one meter seven or eight tall, the bounce and explosiveness of the peak "Terror Ivan" are obviously quite strong, and at the moment of reaching the ball, Zamorano did not hesitate at all, and directly shook the head of the lion and pushed the ball towards the goal of Fiorentina!
Goalkeeper Toldo was very attentive and made a brilliant save when he leaped high from the right side of the goal and single-handedly blocked the ball off the line.
"What a brilliant header! Zamorano is just a little bit off! Fiorentina's goalkeeper was in good luck! The commentator at the Bernabeu Stadium, as a die-hard supporter of Real Madrid, was naturally biased in his commentary, selectively ignoring Toldo's brilliant save and only treating this as the opponent's luck.
Nesta stared at Zamorano, who was disappointed that he couldn't score with his head in his hands in front of him, and spat angrily, just now he was shaken by the sun and caused him to jump a little slower, but Zamorano grabbed the first landing point, which made the young man who aspired to become a Shijie-level central defender feel very unhappy.
Although Nesta knows that Zamorano is a top striker in Shijie football, he doesn't think he will lose to Zamorano if he compares his header and judgment of the first spot......
After all, he has a considerable advantage in terms of height!
"It's okay, Alessandro (Nesta)." Toldo, who got up from the lawn, foamed at the mouth and comforted his teammates, saying, "It was just an accident, there is no need to be so angry, it was just a shot, they didn't score, just be careful next time." ”
Hearing the reassurance from his goalkeeper, Nesta smiled and nodded to Toldo, although he was angry, he would not vent his anger on his teammates for no reason.
Michel ran to the bottom corner of the pitch to take the corner, although due to the increase in age caused by the physical fitness is not as good as before, but the corresponding is that he is more and more perfect in the use of jishu, the arc and speed of the corner kick from the Spanish midfielder are quite large, it seems that he intends to copy the trajectory of Zamorano's header just now, and use the curve ball to bypass the layers of defense of the Fiorentina players and attack the door of Fiorentina!
But the Real Madrid players ran into a Nesta who was in desperate need of revenge!
Seeing Michel take a corner kick, the always suave Nesta yelled, jumped high in the penalty area, and then grabbed Zamorano and Hierro and shook his head sharply to push the ball far out of the Fiorentina penalty area!
Standing outside the penalty area, Costa got the ball out of the box and immediately attacked the door of Real Madrid!
Now it's Fiorentina to fight back!
Nesta landed steadily on the turf, looking at his teammates who were using his header to launch a quick counterattack in the front court, and began to agree with what Toldo had just said to him!
That's right! The race is just getting started!
