"Well done, Captain!"

After Rossi returned to the defense, he gave Ramos a thumbs up as soon as possible.

Although it was unintentional, this kick did kick out the domineering spirit of breaking the kettle, which made the Barcelona fans who broadcast the picture tremble.

After Barcelona's touchline kick was taken, Real Madrid's formation quickly changed from 5-4-1 to 4-5-1.

This is a classic rotation system of the 4-3-3 formation.

Whether the formation system rotates smoothly is related to the team's offensive and defensive rhythm.

This rotation system is different from the traditional squatting "swing bus" defense, Real Madrid's formation has a certain degree of flexibility, requiring players in the formation to be flexible to change positions to achieve the effect of tactical defensive counterattack.

Real Madrid itself is not a team that is good at pressing, especially in the face of passing and controlling teams like Barcelona and Manchester City, and active pressing will expose the gap behind them.

Therefore, Zidane's pressing tactics on the road are based on the suppression of the passing line of the ball carrier near the center circle.

The unhurried pressure makes Barcelona players subconsciously pass the ball back to the back in order to be stable when they can't find an opportunity forward.

It was this tactic that allowed both sides to play very conservatively in the first ten minutes.

Forcing the ball back into the opposition half is a situation that Real Madrid like to see.

But the Barcelona fans don't do it.

It's at the Camp Nou, and it's not for a few hundred euros, not to see you pass.

It's a national derby!

Offense, we're going to look at offense.

Even a few tackles and a little physical confrontation are better than this lethargic pass.

Barcelona also wants to attack, after all, it is a home game, and it is a global pass, what is the difference between this and the weak team.

If you continue to play like this tonight, you, the Barcelona manager, will have to leave tomorrow.

Valverde looked at Zidane on the side and had to admire his cunning.

With just one move, he limited the smooth advancement of his attack.

Since you Real Madrid set up the defensive line behind the middle line and intercepted the counterattack, then we will create an advantage in the local area and play a quick attack.

Valverde made a quick decision, allowing Rakitic and De Jong to press forward and put pressure on the Real Madrid midfield.

Busquets dragged behind and was responsible for organizing the scheduling.

In the 13th minute, Barcelona attacked, and Busquets controlled the ball in the center circle.

Modric immediately pressed up and blocked his forward contact with Rakitic.

Seeing that the passing line in the middle was broken, Busquets pulled the ball to the right and looked for an opportunity from the right.

But Rossi quickly appeared on the pass line and pressed it.

Sergio Busquets was forced to dribble to the left and continued to watch, at which point Benzema leaned in again.

The feeling of pressure from being blocked is no less than facing a steal.

Fortunately, it was Sergio Busquets, who had a big heart, who took the ball.

If it had been someone else, under such pressure, the ball would have been passed a long time ago.

Seeing that there was no passing opportunity, Busquets immediately moved the ball away and went in search of an opportunity.

Rossi first looked back to observe the situation behind him, stretched out his hand to De Jong, and immediately stepped forward to press.

He took the initiative to press the passing lines of Sergio Busquets and full-back Roberto, forcing the opposition to pass the ball back.

And the space exposed behind him puts Mr. Tony in charge of marking.

There was nothing wrong with this attacking tactic, as long as Kroos was in front of De Jong, Busquets would not dare to pass the ball easily.

However, the Dutch star suddenly cut in diagonally, leaving a gap in Real Madrid's tight formation.

This gap is that Kroos exposed the passing line to winger Messi after being taken away by De Jong.

Busquets pinpointedly plugged into Messi's feet.

The Argentine star didn't stop the ball and went straight to the ribs and gave it to De Jong, who was cutting forward.

[Barcelona passed it! ] 】

[De Jong, De Jong forms a single knife! ] 】

[Is there an attack this time!] 】

【Shot!!!! 】

Ooh!

Amid the loud sighs of the home fans, De Jong's shot hit Courtois's leg and bounced off the touchline before Ramos cleared off the touchline.

[Barcelona's first shot on goal is a threat to Real Madrid's goal!] 】

[Courtois's attack and position are world-class! 】

[He blocked most of De Jong's shooting angles, leaving only a very small angle!] 】

[Obviously, De Jong did not take advantage of this opportunity! 】

[This opportunity is not something that everyone can seize! 】

[You must have a cool head and superb shooting skills to score from this angle!] 】

[If Messi appears here, this goal is definitely there!] 】

Attack wonderfully, defend beautifully.

The first meeting between the two teams showed each other's strong strength.

After escaping, Cross first raised his right hand and apologized to Rossi.

Because Rossi had already reminded him to pay attention to the space behind him before he stepped up.

When De Jong cut in diagonally, Real Madrid's defence was numerous, and he should not have been carried away by De Jong, exposing this passing line.

Of course, not everyone can pass such a precise pass under pressure from Rossi and Benzema.

Rossi also raised his hand in response to Cross, expressing his apologies for the impulsive robbery.

In a game as important as the national derby, all the players want to be at their best.

The same goes for Rosie.

But Barcelona's attack made him understand that in such an important game, it is not who is better in attack and better in defense.

The real competition is who makes fewer mistakes.

Missing the goal, Valverde was not disappointed, but was more convinced that his adjustment could bring a threat to Real Madrid's defence.

Barcelona kicked off and continued to press forward towards Real Madrid's position.

Messi took the ball on the side, faced Real Madrid with two people, and still wiped it from the bottom line.

But before the fans behind him could cheer, Rossi's return defense broke the ball in time.

[Oh no, who appeared near the bottom line just now! ] 】

[It's Rosie!] 】

[Rosie, who has never been too involved in defense, actually appeared near the bottom line! ] 】

[Real Madrid's fighting spirit in this game is very strong! ] 】

After Rossi broke the ball, he quickly distributed it to Kroos and then ran along the wing, all the way forward.

The Barcelona players immediately launched a counter-attack.

Kroos and his teammates' consecutive one-two not only cracked Barcelona's high pressing, but also formed a counterattack.

Bang!

The ball was passed to the left wing, and Rossi was dribbling the ball at high speed, running forward.

De Jong chased back from the front until a third of the half, when he caught up with Rossi with the help of Roberto.

It's only been a year, and his speed has become faster again!

Last season, he played for Ajax and Rossi's Bayern Munich in the Champions League group stage.

At that time, Rossi's speed was not so fast.

Is this still the speed with the ball, without the ball?

De Jong couldn't imagine that Rossi, who was already 25 years old, was still growing up so fast.

Roberto's appearance slowed down Rossi.

Once more than two seconds have passed, Barcelona's defense can be completely in position.

Rossi was aware of the situation, of course, and in the process of slowing down, the outside of his right foot suddenly flicked the ball into the middle and wanted to go inside.

Roberto's defense, too, moved to one side, wanting to block the Rossinech line.

But Rossi quickly adjusted his stance with both feet, and with a twist of the arch of his foot, he slid the ball straight ahead.

The change of pace, although he could not completely get rid of the opponent's follow-up, created half of his body of passing space.

Roberto also struggled to chase back, giving priority to blocking Rossi's cross line without knowing the situation behind him.

But as soon as he took two steps back, Rossi kicked the ball back with his left foot, pulled a passing space back, and passed the ball to the middle with his right foot.

Roberto quickly stood up and stretched out his leg to intercept, but it was still a step too late.

The ball was passed down the middle, and Benzema scrambled before Pique could clear it, jumped high forward and chested the ball in front of him.

Although he grabbed the ball, it fell too deep, and Benzema grabbed the ball before it went out of the bottom line and fired with his left foot.

Bang!

With a muffled thud, the ball hit Ter Stegen's chest and bounced into the middle.

Busquets rushed towards the landing spot, only to see Rossi also rushing towards the ball.

He was still on the wing just now, how did he get to the middle so quickly?

Sergio Busquets marveled at Rossi's awareness of the ball and quickly forward in search of the second penalty after a pass.

To be on the safe side, he fell to the ground and slid the tackle, taking advantage of his length, and took the lead in destroying the ball to the boundary.

In order to avoid the tackle, Rossi jumped high and when he landed, his chest rose and fell.

The two teams showed super strength and teamwork in their own attacks.

Rossi, in particular, surprised the fans by running out of the way from the back to the front attack.

Not only was he surprised by his defensive attitude and speed, but also his awareness of the penalty shootout.

This is the offensive and defensive transition that the Spanish national derby should have.

It's worth it!
