Goal kick!

Referee Antony's decision made Real Madrid players dissatisfied and protested.

It was Navas who knocked the ball off the line, and it was an undisputed corner.

But Anthony was unmoved.

As soon as Paris kicked off, Real Madrid pressed forward to compete for the ball.

As Rossi runs towards the ball carrier, he observes his surroundings from time to time in order to anticipate the opponent's passing path and prepare for interception.

Under such oppression, the younger brother-in-law's ball seemed a little hesitant.

Passing outward, and afraid that Rossi would break the ball.

Going inside, Benzema is eyeing the midway.

Suddenly, as Rossi slowly approached, he suddenly launched a sneak attack.

Thiago Silva wanted to protect the ball with his back and block Rossi with his physical advantage.

But just as he was half-turning, Rossi had already stuck to him, stretched out a kick, and poked the ball forward.

This mistake was absolutely fatal.

Fortunately, when the two of them were grabbing the ball, both hands moved, although Rossi poked the ball away, but the ball was out of control, and both of them were a reasonable stage of grabbing the ball.

The brother and daughter-in-law didn't say a word, and used their bodies to fight and knocked Rosie to the ground.

The referee still didn't say anything, and with the palm of his right hand facing up, he motioned for Rossi to get up.

Thiago, who had palpitations, did not dare to keep the ball at his feet and immediately distributed it to his teammates on the wing.

After two years of not fighting, he deeply felt that Rossi was even more terrifying.

Although the forward line of Grand Paris lacks Neymar and Mbappe, the midfield is fully staffed, and it is not inferior to the pressure of Real Madrid's midfield.

Fresh from Everton this year, midfielder Gueye is the most reassuring player in the Parisian midfield due to his extraordinary courage in interceptions and tackles, coupled with his tireless running.

In the 29th minute, he made a comeback in midfield and cut the ball away from Bale's feet, and there was really a shadow of N'Golo Kante at Chelsea.

The decisive ball allowed him to perform well on both ends of the floor.

The 30 million euros are worth it!

Under his activity, Grand Paris gradually seized the initiative.

Off the field, Zidane put his hands in his pockets, thinking about countermeasures.

From the very beginning of the game, he made a serious mistake of believing that the power of Paris without Neymar and Mbappe in the offensive end was greatly reduced.

In reality, the opposite is true.

Big Paris without superstars makes the players play more relaxed.

Moreover, the attacking group led by Icardi and Di Maria is no worse than Neymar and Mbappe.

Icardi's ability to protect the ball in the front end is no worse than Cavani's.

Not to mention Di Maria, who can use dribbling to tear apart the defence, whether on the wing or in the middle.

After Raphael Varane was drawn away, Militão, who replaced Ramos, the defensive pressure suddenly increased.

He often had to face the situation of keeping a solitary eye on Di Maria.

When Di Maria moved on the flanks and on the wing, he barely managed to adapt.

As soon as the opponent moves towards the middle, he faces an awkward situation of following or not following.

Fortunately, James retreated deep and barely relieved the pressure on the central defense.

In this way, Real Madrid pushed forward to pass the ball and could only rely on Kroos.

Gueye was staring at Kroos and making it difficult for Real Madrid to get the ball out.

Seeing this, Rossi immediately retreated to respond, but was closely guarded by Saravia.

He tried to use his runs to get out of his defense, but it didn't work out well.

Because the teammate's condition is not good, the overall passing is very chaotic.

Zidane's passing and running tactics are varied but extremely complex, requiring players to have a high football IQ and spatial awareness.

The same goes for Pep Guardiola at Manchester City.

The difference between the two is that the Manchester City players are placed in the spaces set by Pep Guardiola, completing the assigned tactics and playing beautiful attacking football.

Zidane, on the other hand, does not have Guardiola's creativity, meticulousness and rigour.

More often than not, Real Madrid players execute tactics through their understanding of the game and their talent.

Once a player is not in good shape, or is restricted by the opponent, the team's formation is very prone to confusion.

This is also why Zidane's Real Madrid, obviously playing messily, can always win games.

It is also called "metaphysics".

But Grand Paris is not other small and medium-sized teams, they will take a very aggressive offensive and give you a fatal blow when you are in chaos.

In the 40th minute, Paris Saint-Germain won a throw-in from the right side.

Meunier tosses the ball to Gueye.

In the face of Kroos's up-and-forth, Gueye first knocked his team-mate horizontally, and then quickly diagonally in the ribs.

Marquinhos, who was in charge, saw Gueye's movement and decisively passed the ball over.

In the process of cutting forward quickly, Gueye chested the ball forward and strode forward.

The instant acceleration gave Gueye space to shoot from the flanks.

Militão quickly pushed out of the box to block the space for his opponent's shot.

But just as he moved, Gueye passed the ball.

The ball, crossed to the top of the arc of the penalty area, came to the feet of the unguarded Di Maria.

Stop, shoot!

Di Maria's entire movement was smooth and silky, leaving Real Madrid's defence too late to react.

Courtois flew to the ball and Di Maria's shot, both in terms of power and angle, flew into the net against the inside of the post.

Parc des Princes, once again cheering.

Di Maria, cheered by the fans, made a loving celebration with both hands, and rushed all the way to the sidelines.

【GOALLLLLLL！！！！ 】

[Beautiful goal, Paris Saint-Germain scored again!] 】

[It's a throw-in!] 】

[Guyer dribbled the ball into Real Madrid's defense and crossed! ] 】

[Di Maria at the top of the arc of the penalty area follows up with a shot! ] 】

[Broke the goal guarded by Courtois!] 】

【Angels descend on the Parc des Princes!】 】

[Paris Saint-Germain, led 2:0 in the first half! ] 】

The high-definition cameras on the scene were aimed at Neymar and Mbappe in the stands for the first time.

A happy look appeared on the faces of the two.

Mbappe even grew his mouth and laughed heartily.

On Real Madrid's side, Courtois knelt on the turf and spread his hands helplessly.

This conceded goal was another mistake by Militão, who rushed out to intercept the opponent's shot.

What he didn't see was that team-mate Edouard Mendy hadn't completely lost his defensive position and could interfere with Gueye's shot.

He didn't notice that Di Maria, who was standing at the top of the box, was unguarded.

Zidane, off the field, regretted his carelessness.

I want to make a substitution.

But on the bench, there was no one to take the place of central defender.

At the moment, Casemiro can only be allowed to retreat to help the team defend.

In this way, Real Madrid's attack in the first half could not be advanced.

With two goals in hand, the Parisian players played more relaxed, slowed down the tempo and killed the game time.

As soon as the first half ended, Zidane was the first to walk back to the dressing room.

What awaits him will be an extremely important fifteen minutes.
