Section 804 Opening goal
(Cat Flutter Chinese) In the match with Roma, because of the shortage of manpower, Real Madrid's formation is also a rare embarrassment.
The goalkeeper is still Casillas, and in the back line, Ramos, Cannavaro and Marcelo have all been given starts, while the last place has been given to Metzeld due to Pepe's suspension.
On the midfield line, the midfielder is De La Red, because Guti is injured, so Mata plays as the front midfielder, Zhao Yaning plays the left midfield position, and Ribery plays the right midfielder. The final striker position was given to Higuain and Raul.
And Roma's lineup is their usual 460 style of play: Doni goalkeeper, Panucci, Mex, Juan, Cassetti as the back line, the midfield three are De Rossi, Perrotta and Pizarro, and the left and right sides are Giuli and Mancini Jr., and the nominal striker in the middle is naturally Totti - in this game, Vucinic was injured and did not play, and the others were the main players.
It seems that not only Real Madrid treats Rome as a soft persimmon, but in the eyes of Rome, Real Madrid is not a strong enemy.
However, it should also be the same. 05,06,07 In the round of 16 in three years, the positions of Real Madrid's first-tier teams are all shaky, how can you blame others for treating themselves as soft persimmons. Especially when the main players of the back and forward are absent and can only use the backup plan, it makes Zhao Yaning feel that this game is estimated to be difficult to play.
And as soon as the game began, Zhao Yaning's idea was immediately confirmed. After getting the ball, Roma immediately began a frantic attack. Mancini Jr. dribbled the ball on the flank and then collided with Perrotta for a wall-to-wall link-up, and then quickly plugged in. In midfield, Totti also ran to the position, and after receiving the ball, he immediately shot at goal.
It's just a pity that this shot went wide of the goal and failed to score a goal.
But even so, Real Madrid fans are still in a cold sweat.
"It's interesting that the two teams we have now are the same teams that Capello used to coach, and both teams still have his style imprint. Real Madrid's backline is still built during the Capello period, and Roma's tactical execution ability is also instilled in the Capello period. I don't know how Capello feels about watching this game, but watching his own team play with his own team can be a lot of fun. ”
While the commentator was talking, Zhao Yaning was also carefully observing the opponent.
Rome is obviously not as strong as the legend - Zhao Yaning is in the Premier League after all, if you want to say that the defense is strong, he has seen Chelsea, if you want to say that the offense is good, he has seen Arsenal, Rome's offensive and defensive system, in his opinion, the so-called ability to run, but also to play a little discount, after all, the rhythm of Serie A is too slow compared to the Premier League, even if it is called able to run in such a league, in the eyes of Zhao Yaning in the Premier League, it is not very good - however, their smooth connection while running, It's true that a lot of Premier League teams don't have it.
But even so, it is only better than some Premier League teams, at least, in them, Zhao Yaning can't see the top four of the Premier League, or the strong strength of the two heroes in La Liga. Roma's attack, although beautiful and fancy, lacked the high-efficiency attacking style of a first-class team. Totti is a good player and they work hard enough, but when it comes to playing, they don't have a killer balance that is balance-free. After all, Roma is still weaker, although they have leading tactics, but without the most outstanding players, they can't win.
It's just that in Zhao Yaning's opinion, the strength of these players is indeed unexpected. These guys are really strong, although not as strong as they are touted, but, with excellent tactics, they cover up their shortcomings, play to their strengths, and are much better than the average team player.
Among these people, Zhao Yaning has only cooperated with Jiuli and Panucci, and the others have only heard of it, but have not seen it. And now. He saw the characteristics of these people's play: Perrotta is indeed as legendary, covering a large area and is very good at hitting the wall, while Mancini Jr.'s skills are really good, plus Pizarro and De Rossi, who have always been underrated, their midfield is indeed strong.
But the most terrifying thing is their captain Totti. This guy has the best physical confrontation ability among the Italian nine and a half players, multi-position attributes and all-round technical type, as well as the extremely terrifying ability to catch the ball and make the ball with his back, such a guy can even be used as a center forward, if it is not for the slow speed and the team in which he is too small, his achievements are definitely more than that.
They are very strong - this also makes Zhao Yaning's mind be hooked again - if their team has a good coach, how good it would be!
Such a player also aroused Zhao Yaning's competitiveness, last year, Totti snatched the European Golden Boot, although Zhao Yaning said at the time that it didn't matter, the Champions League is more important than the Golden Boot, but there are still some thoughts in my heart that want to win. And now, seeing that Totti is playing very well, he thinks even more: If the opponent really relies on penalties to cheat the Golden Boot, Zhao Yaning may not care, but Totti's strength is obviously better than imagined, and it also makes Zhao Yaning more interested in playing with them.
It's that our defense is not strong, but your defense, in my opinion, is not very good. Since we can't defend against you, let's attack it.
Zhao Yaning also has no way, Rome's attack is indeed beyond expectations, after seeing their way of playing, Zhao Yaning immediately put aside the idea that it may be impossible to prevent. If such a team wants to deal with them, it has to attack more fiercely than them.
Such a team must not be ambiguous.
And when he got the ball from behind him again, Zhao Yaning accelerated and inserted it to the right side - although Marcelo is excellent, he is still young after all, and in such a game, it is inevitable that he will be a little too excited, Zhao Yaning is afraid that there will be problems with him in the attack, in contrast, Ribery at least has a good explosive ability, even if it is not good one-on-one, Zhao Yaning is more confident and opens a gap on this side.
However, this time, he immediately summoned Perrotta over, and he quickly approached Zhao Yaning, but Zhao Yaning ignored Ribery who came over next to him, and suddenly stopped his steps, and his speed suddenly slowed down, and after luring Perrotta to run over the position, he immediately accelerated and threw off Perrotta - this kind of rhythm control, he is now extremely proficient.
If it were in La Liga, Perrotta would probably have made a tackle behind him and tried to intercept himself. However, against a Serie A team, there is no need to worry, there is such a foul, but you need to be more careful with the supplementary defense in front of you. Sure enough, as Zhao Yaning expected, in front of him, De Rossi was already stuck in the position and ready to break the ball, the defense of Serie A is tighter, and Zhao Yaning will definitely not be given a lot of sprint space - however, his proximity also made Zhao Yaning's goal achieved, at this time, Zhao Yaning kicked the ball violently to the left side, behind Cassetti. Without Zhao Yaning's pass just now, Ribery had already been let go by Cassetti, but at this time, he immediately accelerated and rushed behind Cassetti.
Zhao Yaning saw it very clearly, and the other party was very worried about his breakthrough, so he would be careful of himself. They didn't care much about Ribery in the first place, but just now they saw Ribery take the initiative to respond, and they didn't care about him, even more because Zhao Yaning would choose to break through.
However, Zhao Yaning's straight kick made them all change their minds. Cassetti hurriedly turned to chase back, but his speed, no matter how he was, was unlikely to catch up with Ribery, this pass had already caused a hole in the Roma defense.
However, this is not all Zhao Yaning's purpose. His real purpose was that he had already brought De Rossi out before that pass, and now, all he had to do was find a way to plug in before De Rossi's return visit, get back to Ribery, and then ......
Franck Ribery crosses the ball into the box. Zhao Yaning was behind and couldn't help but sigh. There is no Ruud van Nistelrooy in the penalty area, which high ball is crossed? Ribery's cooperation with the team, after all, is still a little worse. Sure enough, as he expected, under severe interference, Higuain's jump did not reach the height at all, and the ball leaked over his head.
Mexes cleared the ball out of the bottom line with one kick - Raul was right next to him, and he didn't dare to choose to pass the ball at this time.
'Ribery should have played more consistently.' The commentator is also a little pity, "Zhao Yaning is in front of the penalty area, Raul is at the back point, and they haven't run in place yet, and if you pass the ball a second later, the chances will be much better." Ribery still doesn't seem to be very brainy at the moment, which is not a good habit. ”
"However, Real Madrid also won a corner, and with a person like Zhao Yaning, a corner kick is also a very advantageous weapon."
In fact, Zhao Yaning has not assisted through corner kicks in this half season. I don't know if it's because of the tactical reasons or his own slump, in this regard, his assist efficiency is much less than before. ”
Zhao Yaning stood at the corner kick point, he didn't know what others were talking about, but he was very clear about his thoughts when he took the corner.
Set-piece tactics are the part that tests a coach's level the most. Without enough good tactical arrangements, it is difficult to achieve results just by relying on the players to play accurately.
Originally, when he was at Liverpool, Benitez attached great importance to the set-piece rush. His arrangement is quite detailed, and the position of the players is detailed to the first three steps of the penalty area, the last five steps of the penalty spot, how to move when running, who goes to the front point, who goes to the back point...... None of these things can be wrong.
These methods made Zhao Yaning's set-piece footwork play to the greatest effect, but after arriving at Real Madrid, these are all gone.
However, in Real Madrid, these things have become the subjective play of the players. The German-born coaches seem to be a little dismissive of the tactical role of set-pieces, and although they are unrivaled in the world of penalty kicks, there are some problems with corners and free-kicks. Schuster is like this, the former Real Madrid coach Heynckes is like this, and Wenger is the same - although he only has German blood, but Wenger has also learned the temper of the Germans in this aspect, their set-pieces are very tricky, and even they bought Sylvester this season, which can be used as a coach for half of the defensive set-pieces, the introduction of a defender, Arsenal Manchester United's set-piece defense system flowed into Arsenal, but it made Arsenal's set-piece defense rise to a higher level.
Real Madrid does not have a fixed tactic now, and after Zhao Yaning came, it was also formed from scratch. But this task is really a long way to go, and Cassie, as a world-famous goalkeeper, is a player with obvious shortcomings in set-pieces, and it is not easy to bring it up from the beginning. In the first half of the season, Zhao Yaning had almost no corner kick assists, also because of the team's set-piece tactics, which were almost none.
That was before, though. Zhao Yaning came, after all, it has been half a year, and he still has some achievements. And these results should also be effective.
Kicker...... Kickball!
