1030 can suppress countless stars, but can't suppress a handful of supergiants!
Interfering with the opponent and disrupting the opponent's rhythm, Atletico Madrid is an expert.
No other team in European football is better at this tactic than Atletico Madrid.
Compared with the traditional technical and tactical schools, which focus on doing a good job of themselves, Ye Yifeng has experienced the essence of Atletico Madrid's techniques and tactics that focus on destroying opponents.
In this situation, United struggled on the pitch for more than five minutes, trying to play their own characteristics, but the formation and attacking form were disrupted.
Atletico Madrid's forward press brought attacking intimidation, as well as the formation cutting of the blockade on the spot, made United's attack a world away from the first 20 minutes.
The offense is no longer fluid, and passing the ball more than three times is bound to concede the ball.
Ye Yifeng knows that if the game continues with the current trend, then Manchester United will sink deeper and deeper into the quagmire in a daze.
It is even likely that a second goal will be conceded.
So he did the opposite, relieved himself of defensive duties and stayed at the front of the line.
Manchester United was constrained by the opponent's offensive deterrence and counter-robbery blockade, and the formation was naturally pressed back.
It's not so easy for Atletico Madrid to score.
At this time, Ye Yifeng stayed at the front, and even Ronaldo actively retreated to defend, so Sancho naturally needless to say, how dare he stay in front and watch the show and wait for opportunities.
When Manchester United gradually adapted to the new situation, Atletico Madrid panicked.
Simeone said to himself on the sidelines, "Why don't you go back?" ”
Ideally, Atletico Madrid would be able to push the Reds back into the half-time at this stage.
In this way, even if Manchester United adopts a fast attack with ground passes, Atletico Madrid can still make tactical fouls on the spot to stifle Manchester United's threat.
But now Ye Yifeng is staying at the front, which Simeone can't ignore, and the Atletico Madrid generals on the field are even more unlikely to turn a blind eye.
When Luke Shaw and Pogba made two long passes in succession to find Ye Yifeng, although the pass was not well placed, Jimenez and Kieran Trippier were the first to clear the ball.
But Atletico Madrid's generals still have no confidence in their hearts.
Simeone looked at the time, and if he could hold on to 40 minutes, then Atletico Madrid would once again retreat with all his strength.
Aim to hold on to the lead at the end of the first half.
In the 38th minute of the game, B Fei sent a diagonal pass from the back of the center circle.
After Ye Yifeng successfully cut inside the running position and stopped with the connection, the Atletico Madrid defense quickly retreated.
Kondogbia rushed at him and made it clear that he was going to foul.
But Ye Yifeng knocked the ball back to the old supergiant when the Atletico Madrid defense quickly returned to the defense.
As soon as he got out of the ball, he ran forward.
Atletico Madrid's defensive focus is on Ye Yifeng, even if Ronaldo has space to break through, but now his physical condition and strength level are not enough to support him to run long distances, so a better environment can allow him to pass higher-quality balls.
Split the right side.
Thinking clearly.
Sancho followed quickly and pushed forward.
Ye Yifeng entered the penalty area and ran diagonally in the direction of the right rib of the penalty area.
When Jadon Sancho's diagonal pass passed, United's fast break was fluid, though it looked simple.
Ye Yifeng stopped sharply when he received the ball, knocked the ball behind him, CHOP changed direction and cross-cut, so that Felipe, who had not stopped in the return defense, blocked the air.
In the penalty area, Atletico Madrid naturally can't take the initiative to foul, that's a point.
After Ye Yifeng cut over, Kondogbia, who was in place, stretched out his legs to press.
He pulled the ball with his left foot in a V-shaped direction, dodged on the spot and then took a cross-cut step to the middle, just shook the angle, and immediately shot with his left foot!
The ball shot out of the instep of the inside arc and flew towards the far corner of the goal.
Oblak's right hand couldn't reach the ball in his extreme save, and the ball grazed the inside of the left post and flew into the net in the spin!
Old Trafford is thunderous!
Red Devils fans have finally let out their pent-up emotions.
Ye Yifeng did not change his face and turned to retreat, Manchester United still has a long way to go.
It's not worth celebrating now.
"Ye Yifeng got rid of two defenders in a row and shot the ball into the goal of Atletico Madrid!
Simeone must have been in a trance, and Ye Yifeng's way of scoring this goal is very similar to his performance when he played for Atletico Madrid.
Atletico Madrid once suppressed Manchester United, making us think that Manchester United had no threat, but Ye Yifeng acted as a fulcrum at the front, tandem attacks, and then burst into a single threat, and finally sent the ball into the goal.
This style of play is also very familiar to Ye Yifeng himself.
Whether it is the three years at Atletico Madrid or the time when Mourinho was in charge of Manchester United, Ye Yifeng did such a job, and he was very good at it and performed very well.
Manchester United 1:1 Atletico Madrid.
Trailing to Atletico Madrid 2:3 on aggregate. ”
Carrick's face softened slightly as he clapped.
He was indeed shown off by Simeone today.
But so what?
Manchester United has the big devil with the ceiling of player strength, Ye Yifeng will get his face back on the field!
Simeone gritted his teeth secretly.
How much I loved Ye Yifeng before, and how much I hate him now!
But Simone was quickly relieved.
Ten years in charge of Atletico Madrid.
witnessed the peak of Messi, the counterattack of the president, and the rise of the king of red and white.
As a head coach, he can overwhelm all the stars in the world, but he can't suppress the few superstars in the world!
It shouldn't come as a surprise.
Because he once enjoyed the destructive power of green shade brought by superstars, which can be called devastating!
Stay calm and continue to direct the team according to the pre-match train of thought according to the change in the score.
Simeone clapped his hands to keep the players in a good frame of mind and face the next game positively.
The Red Devils were demoralized by Ye Yifeng's goal, and they came up to high-five Ye Yifeng in celebration.
Then wait for Atletico Madrid to kick off.
After Atletico Madrid's kick-off, the game was back to 25 minutes ago.
Atletico Madrid put on a posture of extreme anti-counter-attack.
Invisibly, in terms of the overall situation, Atletico Madrid is more like a side with rhythm.
Their change of stance determines the stance of Manchester United.
Manchester United did not dare to press the whole army at once.
After all, they have been hurt by Atletico Madrid before, and who knows if they will be deliberately ambushed.
Manchester United went on a positional offensive in a step-by-step manner.
Ye Yifeng improved his personal possession dribbling on the left side of the frontcourt.
Compared to the first leg, when he was encircled and suppressed, and in the second leg, when he increased his personal possession threat with his backhand, Atletico Madrid could not do the same as in the first leg.
When Ye Yifeng dribbled inside from the left side and was about to enter the penalty area, Correa, Koke, Trippier, and Jimenez had just formed a four-man encirclement circle.
Ye Yifeng stopped on the spot to pull the ball, and Marseille slalom and sent a straight stopper.
Jimenez took a step back and stretched out his leg to intercept the missed ball.
And behind him, the old super giant ran diagonally to meet the ball and half-turned and volleyed!
Oblak barely managed to get the ball out of the line on a cross-pounce.
Call!
Atletico Madrid fans are in a state of reluctance.
It was almost reversed by Manchester United in a short period of time!
Manchester United's corner kick is taken.
Maguire's header in the middle of the box goes high.
Atletico Madrid began to stall for time.
Before the end of the first half, Griezmann was brought to the ground by Varane after a solo effort up front.
Varane stained yellow.
Once Manchester United attacked, the defence in the midfield position became noticeably weak.
Therefore, defenders should be more proactive in defense and take higher risks.
This was due to the fact that United were down in the first leg and were strategically disadvantaged.
Griezmann's free-kick is blocked by the wall.
The referee blew the whistle for the end of the half.
Manchester United 1:1 Atletico Madrid.
The aggregate score is 2:3.
The Red Devils need to score at least one more goal to avoid being eliminated in regulation time.
The two teams returned to the locker room for a short rest.
Carrick's thinking has always been simple and straightforward.
Manchester United need to score, as long as the defence is not a big colander and the opponent is playing how to have it, then mobilize everything else to support the attack.
At the same time, due to the presence of superstars, there is actually no stereotyped arrangement at the tactical level.
After all, supergiant creativity and on-the-spot adaptability are better than countless textbooks on paper.
Ye Yifeng cheers for his teammates, this kind of game requires a high degree of concentration, and there is no room for players to be distracted for a moment.
Apparently now they don't know when Atletico Madrid will play another surprise attack.
Therefore, it is necessary to be aware and prepared for contingencies.
In the second half, the two sides changed sides and fought again.
Old Trafford was cheering.
Atletico Madrid came up to continue to defend against the limit.
Manchester United went on the attack.
It was as if the game was back at the start of the first half.
The difference is that the players of both teams are already in shape and will be more threatening in attack and defence.
In the 48th minute of the game, Atletico Madrid launched a quick counterattack at the back.
Felix ran on the left to receive a direct pass from Lodi, and Ronaldo II rushed along the left side of the ball quickly, and faced Diogo Dalot's sudden change of direction to cut inside to complete the breakthrough.
Fred immediately rushed to press, and Felix knocked the ball across and continued to cut forward.
Griezmann responded with a direct overhead plug.
The ball was passed just right.
It's rare for Xiao Fadou to be able to send such a wonderful pass.
Felix met the falling ball on the left side of the penalty area, and his left-footed smash changed to cross and cut past Maguire, who was slow to shift his center of gravity.
Maguire didn't dare to stretch his leg anymore for fear of touching the opponent and turning it into a penalty.
Raphael Varane rushed in to block head-on, and Felix decisively kicked the goal.
De Gea had just taken a step when the ball was deflected by Varane's thigh.
De Gea turned his head to look towards the left-hand post and was shocked by what he saw.
The soccer ball flew to the stand on the outside of the left post.
Almost got in!
Swallowing hard, De Gea stepped forward and gave Varane a brief high-five.
Simone's face sank like water, and he couldn't help but rub his hands.
Control the feelings of loss in your heart.
Atletico Madrid corner kick attack.
Centre-back Felipe's header flew wide of the bottom line.
Manchester United regrouped and launched a fast attack.
When Ye Yifeng received on the left side of the front court, he directly made a long pass across the half court and transferred the attack to the right side.
The pass was accurate, and the ball flew just at the right altitude for anyone to intercept.
Jadon Sancho stopped the ball and pushed forward five yards down the flank to deliver a cross.
Cristiano Ronaldo got rid of the defense in the penalty area and jumped high and shook his head to attack the goal!
The soccer ball flies straight to the top right corner of the goal.
Oblak flew to save the limit and lifted the ball over the crossbar with one palm!
Countless Red Devils fans at Old Trafford hugged their heads and sighed!
