Section 881 Real Madrid's trap
(Cat pounce Chinese Real Madrid will choose to retreat from the defensive posture at their home stadium, which is beyond Ferguson's expectations, although he also expected that Ancelotti could not be very easy to deal with, maybe he will have some new tricks waiting for him, but this approach is still beyond Ferguson's expectations.
Not only because of attitude, Real Madrid should not do this, in terms of strength, such an approach is also undesirable. Real Madrid's defense is not very strong, and they play at home, which is also their advantage. They are not Manchester United, they are far inferior to Manchester United in terms of defence, and if they want to win by defending, Manchester United can try, but Real Madrid can't do it. The same tactics, for Real Madrid, they may not be able to defend, it is stupid to choose such a tactic, this is undoubtedly to attack the enemy's strengths with their own shortcomings, such a stupid thing, no matter how you look at it, Ancelotti can do it.
This made Ferguson frown. He didn't want to believe it, Ancelotti would be kind enough to show himself a huge flaw, this guy must have some idea, but what could it be?
This gave Ferguson some headaches. It's not good to go to war with the Italians. They don't follow other people's plays, but always play some tricks. According to Ferguson's assumption, this game, relying on a comprehensive defense, to get a counterattack victory, or even a draw, is acceptable, and then return to the home field, and then go to the battle with Real Madrid - although this approach seems a bit old-fashioned, but it is the safest approach. However, Ancelotti's arrangement made Ferguson a little suspicious: if he really plays according to his own deployment, can this game really go on according to his own ideas?
Ancelotti is a person who has no urgency, and the conductor on the sidelines of the field is a mess. However, his tactical literacy is indeed extremely rare. His arrangement is certainly not simple, but the problem is that Ferguson can't understand what his arrangement is.
'As the minutes ticked by, United didn't have any decent chances. The game between the two sides was a bit dull, the game started close to ten minutes, but neither side had a decent attack, this kind of game, is really rare. Both Manchester United and Real Madrid like to attack at the beginning, but in this game, they are all calmly waiting for their chances. ”
Time slipped by minute, but the pace of the game between the two sides showed no signs of changing. All the spectators were waiting for the game to take some turns, otherwise, such a dull game would be depressing.
And just 20 minutes later, Real Madrid's tempo suddenly changed. After getting the ball again, Zhao Yaning suddenly broke through with the ball, he went directly to the left side, Ribery and Marcelo formed an attack mode with him on the same side, and the three of them cooperated and rushed towards the direction of the penalty area.
"Real Madrid attacked, and after 20 minutes of dull play, Real Madrid finally couldn't sit still!"
What a strange rhythm...... Ferguson complained, but when he saw the time, he suddenly understood what had come.
What are Manchester United's strengths? Ferguson himself knows it very well. Manchester United's players are highly tactically literate and professional players, they can get into the game in the shortest possible time, and they need much less preparation time to play their best than other teams. Therefore, Manchester United have always had a big habit when they play: they like to start a game at the beginning of the game, they understand to launch a wave of attacks, and take advantage of the opponent's unstable footing, directly knock the opponent out of the problem.
This is the rhythm of Manchester United. Relying on attacks in the opening and late stages of the game to win is the most important reason why many teams have come home with hatred at Manchester United. However, this time, Manchester United did not play their own rhythm, and the reason is very simple: because Ancelotti arranged for the Real Madrid players to choose a defensive posture at the beginning, which made Manchester United's side suspicious, and because the tactical arrangement is defense, Manchester United did not take advantage of the 20-minute attacking era at the beginning.
It was only after those 20 minutes that Real Madrid began their attack. The Manchester United players, who were distracted by the opening 20 minutes, are also impatient, and it is inevitable that it will be difficult to play with the strength they should have. Impetuous met the morale of Real Madrid, Manchester United suddenly fell into absolute disadvantage.
And the presence of Zhao Yaning made Real Madrid's tactics quite good. It was he who mastered the rhythm of the pass, expertly scrutinized the movements of his opponents, and then, after the Reds' morale had slumped, he launched a counter-attack. At this time, it happened to be the weakest time for Manchester United, and he mastered the timing and rhythm impeccably.
Still put on the table—Ferguson sighed inwardly. Although he had long said that he would guard against these Italian coaches, Ferguson still did not expect that the opponent would slip to this point. And what makes people even more angry is that with a person like Zhao Yaning who can play fast and suppress the rhythm, Real Madrid's tactical arrangement is even more impeccable, and when it should be slow, he does not have the slightest anxiety, so that Ferguson can't see the intention. And when it was time to hurry, he was merciless, so that Ferguson had no time to react.
After cooperating with Ribery to pass two feet, Zhao Yaning smoothly relied on a transition pass and sent the ball to Ibrahimovic's feet. Ibrahimovic had already withdrawn from the penalty area, and at this time, he stood near the top of the arc, with his back to the goal, blocking Lucio behind him, while Zhao Yaning went to the middle and quickly inserted it, while Raul and Ribery cut along the bottom line towards the box almost at the same time.
In an instant, Real Madrid's offensive posed a great threat to Manchester United: if you keep an eye on Ribery and Raul on the wing, then Zhao Yaning is bound to be able to plug in here and pose a threat. If you mainly focus on Zhao Yaning, then, Ribery and Raul are bound to get a chance, with Ibrahimovic holding the opponent, Zhao Yaning does not need to think about hand-to-hand combat with the opponent at all times, he has to be much calmer, Zhao Yaning can easily receive the pass from Ibrahimovic, send the ball to the penalty area, and let this opportunity become a goal.
Lucio saw the horror of this attack, and in an instant, he also made the most correct move. He let Ibrahimovic in one step, no longer intercepting him from behind, but snatching the ball in front of him in one step, grabbing the football at his feet.
After all, the ball is at Ibrahimovic's feet, and as long as he can block Ibrahimovic's pass, it will be more useful than anything else. The core of Real Madrid is still Zhao Yaning, as long as Zhao Yaning is not allowed to get the ball, the threat of Real Madrid's attack will drop a lot.
But the so-called decline is also relative. Ibrahimovic couldn't pass the ball to Zhao Yaning, but he also got the space to turn, he turned around in one step, rushed directly into the box with the ball, and got a chance to face the goal. Even if Lucio was willing to let him get a chance, he didn't give Zhao Yaning any chance, which was beyond Ibrahimovic's expectations, remembering Ancelotti's seemingly joking and ridiculous words before the game, he was also a little angry, wanting to score a goal to prove himself.
In the penalty area, Ferdinand had already stopped him, and he knew that Lucio was helpless, even if Ibrahimovic got a one-on-one chance, the threat was much better than Zhao Yaning, Raul, and Ribery covering up at three points.
Ibrahimovic took a false step and failed to shake off Ferdinand, but he didn't care, but stepped out directly, relying on his body, brutally blocking Ferdinand, and won a space for himself to get up less than half of his body, and blasted the ball towards the goal!
The ball is fast and the angle is pretty good. But Van der Sar still reacted in time, a timely block, and sealed the ball off the line.
"Paul!"
Ferguson yelled loudly from the sidelines. Scholes turned his head and saw the gesture Ferguson gave him: Calm down, no matter what, this game has to be settled first. Manchester United's mood is a little impetuous, and they have lost their rhythm by Real Madrid's tactics, and at such times, what Manchester United needs is not to attack immediately, but to stabilize and find their rhythm back.
Scholes nodded, signaling that he understood. He knew that Ferguson was the most trustworthy person at this time. Although it is said that a continental coach like Ancelotti can take the lead in tactics, but when it comes to the field, his poor command will eventually cause great problems for Real Madrid. It took 20 minutes of perseverance and delay to disrupt Manchester United's rhythm, but after Ferguson saw it, timely adjustments could eliminate the problem: poor positional command was their biggest problem.
But at this time, Ancelotti did not make any changes: he was not good at changing at this time. More importantly, he knew that at this time, Real Madrid did not rely on him, but Zhao Yaning. On the court, Ancelotti's response is not fast enough, but Zhao Yaning can complete the task on the field - it is not for nothing that good organizers are called commanders. Tell them where to fight, and they'll be victorious.
Standing at the corner kick point, Zhao Yaning sent the corner kick. However, what almost everyone didn't expect was that Zhao Yaning didn't play high. He gave the ball to Marcelo, who was next to him, and immediately ran out. Marcelo gave him the ball with one kick, and Zhao Yaning took the ball directly and rushed to the penalty area.
Tactical corners!
This is something that no one expected. Real Madrid has Zhao Yaning, and they all know what Zhao Yaning's strength is. When defending corner kicks, they thought more about how to defend Real Madrid's high point, but Zhao Yaning got the ball and killed it directly, but it was unexpected.
Fletcher immediately greeted him, but Zhao Yaning didn't entangle with him, and directly changed direction, no longer entering the penalty area, but ran towards the middle.
He doesn't want to go inside the box? Fletcher was a little surprised. And at this time, Carrick and Lucio also came out together, even if Zhao Yaning didn't want to go in, he couldn't give him enough chances, this guy, getting the ball is a scourge, long-range shots and plugging in are almost as troublesome.
However, Zhao Yaning did not choose to shoot. He took a straight kick, picked the ball past the header and sent it into the box. The chaos in the box caused both Lucio and Ferdinand to be out of position, and they did not realize that Real Madrid's attacking players had not all withdrawn from the box at this time. And this time, Ibrahimovic also found an opportunity in the penalty area. Although his header is not strong, after all, he has an excellent height advantage, and he can still shake his head to attack the goal when no one is marked.
“gooooal!! Zlatan Ibrahimovic scored Real Madrid's first goal! Real Madrid took the lead!! Well done!!! ”
