Simeone squatted on the sidelines, looking a little helpless about the goal he had just conceded.

In this game, Ancelotti won.

Faced with his elaborate block routine, Ancelotti assigned two different tasks to the two wingers.

Rossi's retreat combined with the midfield,

Vinicius slotted around the midribs and looked for opportunities with flexible movement.

The cooperation of the two hit the soft underbelly of Atletico's defense.

Modric and Kroos, on the other hand, were the centres of the perfect counter-attack.

After learning Real Madrid's counterattack, Simonsi began to adjust, requiring the movement of the formation to maintain a certain distance and space.

This will ensure that when Real Madrid counterattacks, there is not much space left for them.

Accustomed to this style of defense, Atletico quickly stabilized the defence, leaving Real Madrid with few chances.

And as Real Madrid's formation slowly precededed, Atletico Madrid also began their counterattack.

With the addition of passing, Atletico can take advantage of the versatility of the midfielders and attack from the back.

In the 20th minute, after Atletico broke the ball in front of the penalty area, De Paul advanced quickly with the ball.

He shifted his way away from Kroos and counter-attacked from the right.

Marcos Llorente played at right-back, but he can play as a midfielder and as a right midfielder.

After his teammates started up, he also cut forward as fast as he could.

De Paul split the ball on the side before being surrounded and let Llorente form a 1v1 on the wing.

The whole world only knows that Real Madrid's counterattack is very sharp.

In fact, Simeone has been able to stand at Atletico Madrid for many years, and his most important weapon is also counter-attacking.

Llorente observed the situation in front of goal and swept the ball directly to the middle.

Félix, who was outflanked, was a little slower and did not touch the ball, which was confiscated by Courtois.

Three minutes later, Atletico attacked again.

They capitalised on Real Madrid's misplaced pass and Carrasco instigated a counter-attack.

This time, Griezmann's shot from outside the box was tipped over the crossbar by Courtois' backhand.

Corner kick opportunities.

Carrasco crossed to goal, Felipe pressed Alaba, headed towards the bottom left corner of the goal, and was cleared by Modric standing on the goal line.

During this time, Atletico Madrid have significantly strengthened their attack, and they will patiently organize their defense at the back, waiting for Real Madrid players to make mistakes on their own initiative and get the opportunity to counterattack.

Real Madrid's danger in front of the goal came one after another, and it was all thanks to Courtois's high reception to keep the goal intact.

Seeing this, Carlo Ancelotti immediately made adjustments, allowing Modric and Kroos to appear on the side at the same time, using the organization and tandem of the two to improve the efficiency of positional battles and reduce mistakes.

After Atletico's counter-attacks were noticeably reduced, Simeone's side began to attack in the same way.

Long balls find the wings, and the two strikers move around the flanks to create chances.

In the 30th minute, Cork lobbed the ball back on the left flank and defender El Sommer headed just over the crossbar.

Five minutes later, the Atletico centre-back played the ball to the wing, where Llorente flicked the ball into the box after a succession of flanks on the flank.

Felix keenly found the open space and fired at the ball from a tight angle.

Courtois flew to block the gun, and the ball smashed his head and bounced off the line.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Courtois immediately fell to the ground and stalled for time.

Ancelotti silently gave a thumbs up in his heart, and then called Modric and Rossi to his side.

"Depth, we have to play depth."

The Real Madrid coach stressed the tactics ahead.

After the resumption of the game, Atletico took a corner, this time cleared out of the penalty area by Militão.

After receiving Ancelotti's signal, Modric's position began to change.

He's constantly on the move, looking for space to connect the front and back.

Kroos was in charge of the playmaking at the back, and when he saw an opportunity, he handed it over to Modric as soon as he saw it.

At first, Atletico Madrid's marking of Modric was relatively tight.

Cork was almost inseparable.

However, as the game progressed, towards the end of the first half, the Atletico players' defense and concentration inevitably fell apart.

Modric, waiting for such an opportunity.

In the second minute of first-half stoppage time, Real Madrid launched a long ball attack at the back.

Benzema retreated to his own half, leaped high and headed the ball forward.

Modric leaned his body against Kondogbia, and instead of letting him jump for the top, he let the ball hit the ground and fought on the ground.

The height advantage as a central defender was limited by Modric, and Kondogbia wanted to use his body to fight to get his chances.

But Modric had a low center of gravity, changed direction quickly, and drilled through it in an instant.

After the goal, stoppage time was about to end, and the referee blew the whistle to end the first half.

At the beginning of the second half, Atletico Madrid replaced Suarez on the field and changed the formation to 4-3-3, moving the defensive line forward and strengthening the pressing and counter-attacking in the front, so as to improve the offensive efficiency.

Suarez's appearance did allow Atletico to find some attacking opportunities to change the tempo.

But as the formation moved forward, Real Madrid's forwards had room to fly freely.

Between the 60th and 70th minutes, Real Madrid organised three threatening attacks from the flanks, all of which were converted into shots.

Although the shot was defused by Atletico's stubborn defence, it was clear from the situation that the adjustments that Simeone wanted to make did not have an effect, but instead fueled Real Madrid's attack.

In the 75th minute, Benzema, who had a minor injury, was replaced by Mariano.

As he ran to his position, Mariano saw the instructions Rossi had given him.

Pointing to the eyes, suggesting to look up more.

Mariano, who received the order, nodded, and after just five minutes, he found the rhythm of the game.

In the 80th minute, Mariano faced a two-man pack on the edge of the penalty area, first deducted a defender, and did not continue to dribble with his left foot.

Because he looked up and saw Rosie following up.

Bang!

Mariano quickly split the ball with the instep of his foot.

Although he was cut off by the chasing defender because of his low strength, the improvement of his passing coordination awareness is of great significance.

"Well done, continue next time!"

Encouraged by Rossi, Mariano was full of energy and began to fully devote himself to all aspects.

Although the strategy is still a bit blunt, with his help, Real Madrid's attack in the front field is quite decent.

Simeone crouched on the sidelines and shook his head, in his opinion, it was impossible to equalise in a short period of time.

The almost frantic reverse Gaia cannon celebration of the former "bandits" was ruthlessly annihilated by Rossi's perfect performance.

He made the last substitution to the midfielder Herrera to limit Rossi's movement and prevent the score from expanding.

With two goals in hand, Ancelotti is not too difficult, after all, if he pushes too hard and angers the Atletico players, there will be unforeseen accidents.

Accept it when you see it, in order to ensure that the players will not get injured.

Because in January, Real Madrid will face three fronts, the league, the Copa del Rey and the Spanish Super Cup.

Entering the winter break, Real Madrid will also participate in the Club World Cup.

With such a tight schedule, how to do a good job in the state adjustment and tactical arrangement of the players is related to the second half of the game.

If he doesn't want to repeat the mistakes of last season, Ancelotti has more to do than that.
