Turn around, smash the ball, get rid of.

Casemiro, who was forced to the sideline, passed the ball to the middle under the bag of the two.

Modric received the ball and shifted to the right.

The Brazilian midfielder was in fine form today, finishing an excellent escape transition against Manchester City's siege.

Zidane clapped incessantly on the sidelines, surprise in his eyes.

The big win in the national derby has an uplifting effect on the mentality of the players.

Compared to the first leg, the players in this game are more confident in passing the ball.

Before you know it, Real Madrid has picked up the pace of passing.

Fatigue has weakened Benzema's threat to the penalty area.

In the first ten minutes, through a few attacks, Zidane spotted his problem.

He then immediately sent Benzema back to take over and give up the central striker position.

This is also the reason why Rodrygo was chosen to start this game.

The Brazilian has the attributes of a winger and a striker, sharing Benzema's ability to score and attacking with full-backs, which is his strength compared to compatriot Vinicius.

So why not Bell?

Because Zidane needs a striker who is good at running, Bale is a little lacking in mobility and spirituality.

Once Rossi and Rodrygo are in the centre-forward position, the full-backs move forward so much that they almost become wingers, widening the area.

Real Madrid's tactical intention at the moment is very obvious, that is, to start attacking.

"Awesome!"

Pep Guardiola gave Real Madrid an approving look at the line-up.

It is said that Zidane's success in Real Madrid is based on the property and wealthy heritage left by Real Madrid's successive head coaches, in fact, Zidane's tactical literacy is not low.

In five years at the helm of Real Madrid, winning two Champions League titles is enough to show his quality.

Especially in the timely correction of problems, it is not at all like the immaturity of a novice coach.

Casemiro was targeted at the back, so he was left behind.

Benzema's attacking ability was insufficient, so he let him retreat to the organization and distribute the pressure to his teammates.

These operations are essential for a good coach.

What's even more rare is that after Ronaldo left the team, Zidane found Rossi as a replacement, which perfectly solved the shortcomings of Real Madrid's "weak forward" last season.

Rossi and Benzema are both playful center forwards, but the two have very different styles in terms of small skills.

Fulcrum and tandem are Benzema's greatest strengths as a central striker.

Organising and snatching penalties is what Rossi is best at.

Moreover, the combination of the two can greatly disrupt the layout of the opponent's defense, and Rossi can use Benzema's cover to counter offside and enter the penalty area.

And Benzema can pose a threat to the opposing central defender 1v1 on the premise that Rossi attracts the defense.

A striker as well-rounded as Rossi is hard to come by.

Pep Guardiola regretted it.

If you can dig up Rossi from his time in Leicester City, why bother with this forward problem.

However, who knows that the "lazy" striker will actually become a player not inferior to Messi.

Just as Gua Shuai was distracted, there was a low cheer in the stadium.

I saw Rossi, who appeared in the middle, under the bag of two central defenders, receiving the ball from his teammates with his back.

It was supposed to be a chance not to move forward, but Rossi first pulled the ball back with his left foot to avoid Otamendi rushing from the left.

At the same time as the half-turn, he quickly pushed the ball to the left with his right foot and smashed it out of the bag.

Everyone at the scene had a numb scalp and couldn't help but exclaim in a low voice.

This little technology is too chic, isn't it?

First, he used the Marseille slalom to pull the ball and turn around to avoid blocking, and then connected the croquettes with the trend.

It seems that two complex and incoherent movements, but Rossi can complete it with such a simple and chic action, which makes fans fascinated.

Otamendi, who was shaken away, couldn't stop Rossi, and blocked the line blocked by his teammates, allowing Rossi to shoot with ease.

Rossi curled an arc with the arch of his foot, bypassing the Ten Fingers of the Manchester City goalkeeper and flying into the net.

Yes!!!!

Although it was away from home, the cheers erupted from tens of thousands of Real Madrid fans, making the Real Madrid players think they were back at their home stadium.

【GOAL！！！！！！ 】

【The ball is in!】 】

[At a critical time, it depends on Rosie! 】

[He received the ball near the top of the arc of the penalty area and turned around, it was so beautiful and chic! ] 】

[Manchester City's two central defenders are completely confused! ] 】

[I can't prevent it at all! 】

[I don't even have a chance to force closely! ] 】

[This may remind the Manchester City coach of Messi at his peak! ] 】

[The two also made the opponent's defense helpless! ] 】

[But Rosie's killing moves are often hidden in his leisurely stroll!] 】

The Real Madrid players gathered around and pressed Rossi, who was celebrating at the community level, under him.

Goals, is it hard?

In Rossi, it looks very relaxed.

Watching Real Madrid score at his home stadium, the stunned Guardiola crossed his waist with one hand and scratched his head with the other.

His mind was racing, and after a few moments, he immediately used sign language to convey tactics to the players on the pitch.

Although Manchester City has away goals, the current aggregate score is 3:2, Real Madrid leads, and the advantage of away goals is gone.

Of course, if City can pull a goal back, then an away goal will see them progress.

So, after the game resumed, Manchester City began to take the initiative to attack.

After passing half-time, a 3-2 offensive pattern is formed in the front court.

Raheem Sterling and Gabriel Jesus pressed Real Madrid's ribs, the gap between centre-back and full-back.

Due to the forward insertion of full-back Walker, the moment Foden received the ball, no Real Madrid player stepped forward to interfere.

Foden, who turned easily, flicked the ball with his right foot and followed up with a furious shot into the top right corner of the goal.

Courtois flew and swooped down to block the ball with a backhand.

After a sharp fall, the ball smashed into the net above and bounced off the baseline.

The youngster, who was newly promoted by Pep Guardiola, was not afraid of the big scene of the Champions League knockout match at all, and shot decisively and won the applause of the fans.

If this goal is scored, it will be his "one-goal fame".

Zidane was not happy with the team's defense.

After Rossi scored a goal for the team, Real Madrid had another situation in the first leg, blocking but not grabbing.

If Raphael Varane had just stepped up a step earlier, Foden would have had no chance to get off the ground at all.

Zidane's gloomy face shouted at Varane: "Raphael, press forward, there is Sergio behind." ”

The reason why Varane didn't dare to press high was because he was afraid that the opposing striker would hit him behind when he was defending his position.

If he is already standing in the box, he will not hesitate to grab.

Zidane also realized this from Manchester City's attack just now.

Putting Aguero without it, the youngster Foden is just to insert the space behind the central defender.

Guardiola's seemingly inconspicuous adjustments, every move is hidden in the killing.

Now, all the hole cards of the two starters are revealed.

Real Madrid converted positions through the rotation of the front line, and Rossi scored first.

But Pep Guardiola's move to advance from the midfield, Zidane has not found a way to resolve it for a while.

The two coaches know very well that the next game will depend on who makes a mistake first.

Whether it's offensive or defensive.

Whoever mistakes first loses the game.
