In the first half, Lyon did an excellent job of containing Real Madrid's attack.

They used an endless amount of small moves and destructive abilities to cut Real Madrid's attacking rhythm to pieces.

The only point that Real Madrid could exploit was a low cross from the two wings.

This is precisely the only channel left for Real Madrid after Lyon concentrated on the middle of the strangulation.

However, Real Madrid is not a team that is good at heading, especially in sports battles, Lyon's two defenders with a height of 184cm and 191cm respectively can ensure the advantage of aerial competition.

Rossi was completely locked down the left, and more often than not, he reclaimed the middle and ceded the wide passage to Marcelo.

Zinedine Zidane's plan to score first in the first half fell through, with Lyon's defensive intensity beyond his expectations.

Moreover, he is keenly aware of a problem, the team's ability to function in midfield does not have the hardness to compete with it.

Because Casemiro has to focus on defense and does not have many opportunities to participate in the attack, this makes Real Madrid's two midfielders lack the impact when attacking forward.

Kroos and Modric are both "veterans" over 30 years old, and their technical characteristics are not high-impact midfielders.

In the face of the game of the same technical midfield, Real Madrid's three midfielders are definitely one of the best.

However, when encountering a team like Lyon that is tough and has a lot of small movements, it is often difficult for the attacking organization to rotate smoothly.

Since you can't hit it fast, then slow down.

After making up his mind, Zidane immediately laid out the second half tactics.

The second half was kicked off by Lyon.

Real Madrid's formation was immediately adjusted to 4-4-2.

Asensio adducted inside, playing as a midfielder, responsible for linking up the midfield.

Lyon, who are playing away, have already made up their minds to defend and fight back when they have the chance.

That being the case, Zidane decided to add a midfielder and use the pass to penetrate the opposition defence from the front.

In the face of Real Madrid's change of formation, Lyon was very happy.

A draw without conceding a goal is the best result for an away game.

Since the opponent sent a draw, it would be a bit unkind not to accept it.

"Huh?" Howard was a little surprised after watching the five minutes of the second half.

Real Madrid actually played Tiki-Taka!

Kroos dragged his feet behind and it was up to him to complete the transfer of Real Madrid's attack, constantly mobilizing Lyon's defence.

The blonde man was puzzled that moving the ball was indeed a way to wear down the opponent, but it was of no use to the young Lyon.

Because Lyon, who are playing away, do not need to take the initiative to attack, and in terms of mentality, they will be more stable.

But Lyon boss Rudy doesn't think so.

Real Madrid have a terrifying forward group led by Rossi, especially in the Champions League, and their attacking power is often beyond the ordinary.

With the current offensive configuration of Real Madrid, if you want to defend it, I am afraid that you will not be able to hold it until the end of the game.

Lyon had to attack appropriately and play to the advantage of advancing speed and attacking efficiency to make Real Madrid feel scared.

Immediately, Rudy began shouting from the sidelines, signaling for the players to press a little.

As soon as Lyon pressed, Real Madrid's formation retreated to avoid its edge.

This made Rudy even more strange.

You are a dignified horse, and you actually sued for a draw at home?

But it's okay to do this, if you can't attack for a long time, it must be the home team if you have a mentality problem.

But fifteen minutes later, Real Madrid still patiently passed the ball on the periphery, looking for opportunities.

Gradually, Real Madrid's possession of the ball was as high as 80%.

Moreover, Real Madrid made a staggering 37 passes in this wave of attacks.

Real Madrid has never been a pass-and-possession team.

They can make a pass, often after a dozen passes, and then they will complete a threatening shot on goal.

It's also due to the fact that there are superstars in the team and they have to shoot when they have the chance.

More often than not, Real Madrid's counterattack is just three or four passes, and in more than ten seconds, they can complete the goal.

Thinking about this kind of passing, it's really a long time to see in the Real Madrid team.

And just after Lyon adapted to Real Madrid's slow pace, Modric's breakthrough in the midfield made Real Madrid, which had been slow, suddenly speed up.

A lob ball landed on the right side of the Lyon penalty area, and Asensio didn't wait for the ball to hit the ground, and volleyed directly into the second floor of the stands.

Three minutes later, Kroos played a long diagonal pass from the left and found Carvajal on the other flank, who then passed the ball down the middle.

Although Benzema hit the ball, he was picked up by the goalkeeper with both hands because he was too positive.

Real Madrid's two pick-ups in attack alarmed the Lyon manager.

With Real Madrid having a lot of possession, they are also in control of the attacking tempo, so Kroos and Luka Modric can control the game as they please.

If you want to be fast, speed it up now.

If you want to slow down, you can slow down immediately.

Lyon, on the other hand, have lost their best game of efficient counter-attacking attacks.

In the 70th minute, Real Madrid's offensive struck again.

Luka Modric hoisted the ball into the box from the perimeter, and two Real Madrid players appeared in the middle at the same time to receive it.

Benzema's fulcrum is very obvious, in a small space, he stops the ball with his back to his chest and controls the ball steadily.

At the same time, Rossi, who was attacking the penalty area together, appeared next to Benzema and reached for the ball.

Benzema understood and quickly distributed the ball to Rossi.

But after all, it was in the opponent's penalty area, and Rossi was quickly caught up.

After attracting three defenders from Lyon, the weaknesses exposed by the three-centre-back system were keenly captured by Rossi.

Marcelo, the full-back inserted in the back, was unmarked.

Rossi pulled the ball half-way and flicked the ball with the outside of his right foot in extreme concealment, passing the ball through the gap between the wing-back and the centre-back.

Facing the goalkeeper, Marcelo calmly pushed the ball into the far corner and smashed the ball into the net before the goalkeeper fell to the ground.

Yes!!!!!

The Bernabeu, which has been silent for a long time, finally ushered in an outbreak.

The cheers of nearly 80,000 fans completely pierced the clouds over the stadium.

【GOAL！！！！！！！！ 】

[The ball is in!] 】

[Real Madrid has scored! 】

[They were in the penalty area, completing a wonderful short pass to tear apart Lyon's defense! 】

[They care too much about Rosie!] 】

[Led to Marcelo who was plugged in after being unmarked! ] 】

[Rossi's passing is also very chic! ] 】

[In such a small space, the flirting of the outside instep, this technology and vision, impeccable! ] 】

At the moment when Real Madrid scored, the Lyon coach finally woke up.

In the game with Zinedine Zidane, he lost.

Real Madrid did not show weakness, but disrupted their own rhythm after quietly controlling the rhythm of the game.

This invisible means of killing people made Rudy's back chill.

This goal also proves that it is impossible to defend it.

So, after kick-off, Lyon went on the attack.

They used their super running and athletic ability to constantly attack Real Madrid's wings.

At this time, Real Madrid began to play "swinging the bus".

Being suppressed by Lyon and falling into a passive defense, picky Meilinger fans are not allowed.

They were about to make a mockery of Zinedine Zidane when the situation on the pitch changed.

Ramos launched a counter-attack immediately after the break.

Casemiro, Marcelo, Kroos, three Real Madrid players broke through Lyon's defense with just one shot.

Rossi started near the centre circle, shook off the defense behind him, and pulled the ball behind Kroos in front of him.

[Real Madrid strikes back! 】

[Antonio can't catch up! ] 】

[Rosie is single-handed! 】

[Flash! 】

【Shot!!! 】

[There is no suspense, Real Madrid has scored! ] 】

【2:0！ 】

[Real Madrid scored two goals in just ten minutes!] 】

[Leon, they pressed too far forward, completely ignoring the defense!] 】

[Rossi started from the middle line to avoid offside, which was the finishing touch to the goal! 】

Rudy slammed the water bottle into the ground.

He was completely confused by Zidane's old 6.

Real Madrid's retreat was a completely premeditated counterattack.

He never thought that Real Madrid, a dignified La Liga giant, would actually set up a bus to defend in order to lure the enemy deeper.

Shouldn't it be a confrontation?

Zidane smiled playfully and sat leisurely in his chair.

Giants?

No, we're just small clubs and you can't compare us to those big clubs.
