"Sir, you are great, this tactical adjustment is really good!"

Assistant coach Betoni rushed over excitedly and hugged Zidane.

Bringing Kroos to full-back not only allows him to play to his passing skills, but also reduces the physical exertion of unnecessary running.

This kind of physical work is more suitable for the young Mendy to do.

As it turned out, Mendy's breakthrough broke City's high press and helped the team score.

Zidane finally breathed a sigh of relief, sat down in the chair, and showed a deep smile.

If it weren't for Rossi's arrival in the wing-midfield position, he would have almost forgotten that he has a good passing tandem and is an important means of breaking the opponent's high pressing.

Pep Guardiola stood alone in a corner of the coaching area, a little messy.

The aggregate score was 4:2, and there was no away goal advantage, which he did not expect.

What surprised him even more was that Real Madrid's finishing ability and efficiency in this counterattack were really terrifying.

Rossi stayed away from the penalty area in order to crack Manchester City's high pressing.

Benzema has been affected by fatigue and his ability to impact the penalty area has decreased.

Rodrygo, a newcomer, can't afford Real Madrid's attacking banner.

Pep Guardiola really can't think of Real Madrid still being able to score goals in a state of "weak strikers".

But Real Madrid still scored, leaving people speechless.

It is not so much the explosion of Modric's individual ability as the success of Real Madrid's collective cooperation.

Before the Croatian midfielder's shot, the rest of Real Madrid's players were paving the way for the shot.

The victory of the national derby is too important for Real Madrid.

Positive passing, sharp counterattacks, and efficient finishing, the current Real Madrid attack is undoubtedly the strongest team in today's football.

If you hold on, you can't keep it.

Besides, the score is behind, how to keep it?

If you want to score, you have to be bold and you have to take risks.

In the 65th minute, Manchester City made three substitutions in a row.

According to FIFA's new regulations, in the knockout stage of the Champions League, the team will add one substitution to the original three substitutions for each game.

Manchester City, who have no way out, use up all in one breath and make a last stand.

Riyad Mahrez, David Silva and John Stones were all on the pitch.

Replace Joao Cancelo, Rodri and Fernadinho.

Manchester City changed their formation 3-4-3.

The two teams entered a positional battle, which is a situation that Real Madrid wants to see.

Rossi and Rodrigo adducted, strengthening the central defense while focusing on the space created by Benzema after pressing the defence.

City's wings were unimpeded on the flanks and they were frequented with low crosses.

Without a high striker, City's wide attacks have had little effect.

Pep Guardiola tried to get the winger on the edge of the box to play behind the Real Madrid defence.

The Real Madrid defensive team, led by Ramos, has repeatedly resolved dangerous situations with solid defense.

In the case of Manchester City's struggle for the ball, in order to regain the ball, in the 75th minute of the game, James replaced Rodrygo and strengthened the control of the middle.

Five minutes later, Isco replaced Karim Benzema and Real Madrid continued to add a technical midfielder to the midfield.

James and Isco were able to effectively link up the various battle zones, organise the passing and allow Real Madrid to regain control of the ball in attack.

Today's Real Madrid has become a 4-1-4-1 defensive state.

With Real Madrid leaving Rossi alone in the attack, Pep Guardiola sent the full-back forward to press forward, dragging the central defender to mark Rossi, and the other central defender moved up to the central midfield position.

In the face of Manchester City's heavy pressure, the Real Madrid players united as one, changed the previous fatigue of "surrounding but not grabbing", and defended desperately.

Manchester City pressed Real Madrid near the penalty area, but they were slow to organise an effective attacking attack.

Because Pep Guardiola lacks a strong striker or a superstar like Messi.

As time went by, City's attack became more and more simplistic.

Riyad Mahrez and Raheem Sterling began to penetrate the Real Madrid defence from the ribs.

In the 80th minute, Valverde and Vazquez came off the bench to further strengthen the movement and defense of the midfield.

At this time, Gua Shuai was scratching the back of his head frantically, and his mind was running rapidly.

He couldn't help it.

Real Madrid has made it clear that they want to defend and counterattack, and positional warfare is something that Manchester City is not good at.

Every adjustment of Zidane is really powerful and faintly mysterious.

When the game entered the 80th minute, many fans at home saw that there was no hope of a comeback and had begun to withdraw from the field to avoid traffic jams.

Such a game is not worth it for them to stay.

Real Madrid is too strong, so strong that even Manchester City at this time, with two away goals in hand, collapsed at home.

Manchester City are not bad at playing, they have created more chances than Real Madrid.

But Real Madrid's attacking efficiency is really amazing.

And they also have the superstar Rossi, who can score points with his individual ability, and Manchester City's defeat seems to have been predetermined a long time ago.

When the referee blew the whistle for the end of the match, tens of thousands of Real Madrid fans stood up to cheer and celebrate the victory.

The home team, which had already walked outside the stadium, heard the cheers coming from inside the stadium and had mixed expressions.

Not only did Manchester City lose, but so did the support of the fans.

Be completely convinced.

This is what Pep Guardiola said in his post-match press conference.

This rigorous and arrogant handsome man finally lowered his head.

'Real Madrid are very strong, they have a very strong ability to take chances, like a beast that hunts at any time, if you are not careful, they will catch you and score a goal.

Manchester City have lost three of their four fronts this season, and many media outlets are worried about whether Pep Guardiola will leave the team at the end of this competition.

Pep Guardiola smiled and said: "Regardless of the outcome, I am not thinking about leaving now because I have a contract with the club. ”

'When I sign for Manchester City, I respect this club.'

When asked by reporters how he would evaluate Zidane, Guardiola showed a look of admiration.

To be able to lead Real Madrid out of the devil's schedule in a month and a half, and keep the league and the Champions League, how do you evaluate it?

And what about Rossi?

In the face of the media's burning gaze, Guardiola straightened his back, shrugged his shoulders and said: "Wow, he's a great player, he has the ability to change the game, our defence can't do anything about him. ”

Will he be even better than Messi?

"I ...... I do not know. The annual Ballon d'Or needs to evaluate the overall performance of players in a year, which is unpredictable, after all, people are not machines. ”

Guardiola didn't say it directly, but no one will question Rossi's ability.

The "Galaxy Battleship III" led by Rossi is showing everyone after winning the Western Super Cup and fighting a bloody way out of the devil's schedule.

King of Europe, back.
