After Valverde's arrival, Real Madrid's attack was advanced by Luka Modric.

Real Madrid abandoned the tactic of long balls at the back and moved forward in the middle.

In doing so, Zidane hopes to strengthen the vitality of the team's sprinting and short passing penetration and threaten the opponent's goal.

And the key point is somewhat similar to Bayern's attack just now.

Benzema went to the right in the middle and pressed Alaba on the right.

Rossi moved on the ribs to draw Alphonso Davies' defence.

In this way, Bayern's wing is completely empty.

Valverde, who came off the bench, could take advantage of the space created by his teammates and attack the penalty area.

Carvajal, on the other hand, appeared in Valverde's original right midfield position and threatened the Bayern goal from outside the box.

Such a flexible and rich tactic is much more dangerous than the previous bottom cross.

Zidane and Flick, both of whom are in the position of coach, are very young.

But the two of them are like two experienced masters on the stage of the Champions League final, and the details are needle-to-point.

No matter how the opponent moves, he can respond quickly and give a counterattack.

And was countered, and there were immediate adjustments, and then countermeasures.

The game between the two coaches brought a visual impact to the fans.

If you hit me with a counterattack, my backhand is a sneak attack.

The offensive wave after wave was repeated, and the screams of the fans were endless.

Drip!

The referee finally blew a foul whistle in ten minutes of intense rhythmic confrontation.

Alaba brought down Rossi just outside the box and not only received a yellow card, but also gave Real Madrid a well-placed set-piece.

This position is suitable for left-footed players, and with Real Madrid's current starters, there is not a single left-footed player.

In this way, they can only try to attack from set-pieces and threaten the Bayern goal.

But at the critical moment, Zidane still let Rossi take the penalty.

Goal or not, Rossi has to step up and kick it like that.

Because he hasn't shot in a long time.

He had to warm up his feet.

After arranging, Zidane hurriedly walked back to the rest area, picked up a bottle of water, and finished it violently.

His throat was unusually hot when he commanded just now.

If you don't hydrate in time, I'm afraid that your voice will be completely hoarse the next day.

"Old friend, remember I mentioned to you, Luo's performance is still a little worse than me?"

At this critical moment, Bettoni did not understand why Zidane would bring up something unrelated to the game.

"After what happened just now, he is not far from my peak!"

As Rossi's shot grazed the near post and off the line, Zidane stepped out of his seat and clapped incessantly.

In his opinion, Rossi's growth is not only in ability.

His ability to read the game is even more thorough than that of his off-field coach.

He was able to detect tactical loopholes and deficiencies in a timely manner.

What is even more admirable is that he has the courage and courage to shut up the Real Madrid manager.

This is much more domineering than when I was younger.

The offensive of both teams continued unabated, but the goals were delayed.

As the game time ticked by, fans at the scene even felt that the two teams might have to play 30 minutes of extra time to decide the winner.

Due to UEFA's adjustment of the substitution quota for the game, from the original 3 players, to the fourth substitution in the knockout stage to enter extra time, the managers of both sides have used up the 3 substitutions.

The two young managers both want to settle the battle in regular time.

In the 83rd minute, Luka Modric passed the ball to Valverde in front of a set-piece opportunity.

The Uruguayan youngster turns on the ball from the edge of the box and crosses to the middle.

Rossi was running at high speed and shot directly at the goal, which was blocked by Neuer on the ground.

It was Rossi's fifth shot of the game.

Except for the free-kick that went wide, the rest of the shots were on goal.

But he was always close to scoring.

And this subtle gap is where the value of Bayern's three and a half lines lies.

Except for Boateng, the other three defenders turned very quickly, especially after Bayern replaced Pavard, the attack and defense were more balanced.

Kimmich, who was liberated, moved from full-back to the central midfield role to partner Thiago.

The two worked together to defuse Real Madrid's siege and advance, and successfully controlled the tempo of the game.

After Zidane's plan to use the midfield to move forward failed, he replaced Bale and launched a powerful sprint from the back.

In the absence of Toni Kroos, Zinedine Zidane asked Ramos to take on some of the ball duties and share the pressure on Modric.

At the same time, the purpose of Marcelo's appearance is also to revitalize the passing and ball at the back.

Now, Zidane has done everything he can, and all that's left is to pray.

Because the players on the field have played more than 80 minutes in the fast-paced game, they no longer have the strength to complete such delicate and wonderful control.

All it takes is one chance, and it's a headless shot.

Rossi's shot just now was a hasty kick after his physical fitness declined.

Real Madrid's attacking tempo began to slow down.

In the last minute of regular time, the fourth official on the sidelines held a sign in his hand to show everyone the time for injury time.

2 minutes.

With such a short stoppage time, it can be seen that the two teams were interrupted by fouls in the second half very few times.

The managers of both sides did not direct from the sidelines, but returned to their seats and discussed with their assistants how to play extra-time and who to give the last substitution.

Another overtime.

The showdown between Real Madrid and Bayern is not destined to end in 90 minutes.

Many fans at the scene had already stood up and ran to the bathroom as soon as the whistle blew.

With such a tense game, they didn't want to miss a moment.

Continue to grit your teeth and persevere.

The players on the field are also gritting their teeth and persevering.

In the first minute of stoppage time, Bale retreated to the halfway line to get the ball and was immediately pressed by Bayern players.

Although they believed they would play extra time, they didn't back down on the pitch.

How the manager deploys before the game, they have to execute it to the end.

In desperation, he had to pass back to Ramos.

The Real Madrid captain rarely provided an assist in this game, as Zinedine Zidane asked him to stay at the back as a shield to protect the defence, and at the same time, to be involved in the team's play at the back.

He handed the ball to Modric, who retreated.

Bayern's defence did not let up, with Muller closing in quickly and not giving him a chance to turn.

Modric came under pressure and passed back to the defender again to avoid Bayern's pressing.

Watching Real Madrid return the ball to the half, Bayern's formation began to retreat, forming a first line of defence near the halfway line.

Ramosla was on the side, the full-backs had moved forward, and Bale remained near the halfway line.

After Bale got the ball, Perisic pressed forward quickly to block his path inside.

At this point, Valverde's retreat gave Bale a comfortable passing spot.

After Valverde received the ball, he observed Bale, who was cutting forward, and was about to pass the ball, but Kimmich stepped forward to interfere.

After using his body to resist the confrontation, Valverde half-turned and forced the ball forward.

Because at this point, there is not much time left for the game.

Bale, who was not hopeful, excitedly stepped forward and sprinted with all his strength after seeing his teammate's pass.

Although he didn't have the outside speed of his peak, Perisic still struggled to catch up.

It's a bit of a shame that Valverde's pass was a bit too powerful for Bale to save when the ball was off the line.

But he still took a step ahead of his opponent and hooked the ball behind him.

He's done his best.

The ball landed on the right rib of the penalty area.

Due to the forward pressure of Real Madrid center forwards Benzema and Marcelo, Bayern's defense was too far back in this retreat, neglecting the protection of the outside of the penalty area.

Rossi appears here smartly.

Seeing this, the Bayern players were immediately shocked and immediately wrapped up in Rossi.

The closest to Rossi are Kimmich and Alaba.

Rossi, who had no time to stop the ball and adjust, stood up to meet the ball, turned sideways in the direction of the goal, and raised his right foot.

As soon as this action came out, Zidane off the field directly dropped his jaw.

No one in the world knows this position better than him.

Bang!

With a crisp shot, Rossi completed a half-turn volley.

And this way of shooting has another name.

Flying immortals out of the sky.

I saw the ball draw a bolt of lightning and whistle towards the corner of the goal.

Neuer's pale face and clenched lower lip knew how desperate this ball was.

His reaction was fast enough.

But it still couldn't get past Rossi's stunning shot.

At the moment when the ball hit the dead corner of the post and the inside of the crossbar and bounced into the net, Zidane touched his bald head in disbelief and made a sweaty look of surprise.

Memories came flooding back at once.

Please, don't use the Memory Knife to kill me!
