"Fans in front of the TV, this is the Calderón Stadium in Madrid."

"We're streaming the first leg of the 2001 Spanish Super Cup."

"The two sides are Deportivo La Coruna, the winner of last season's La Liga, and Atletico Madrid, the winner of the Copa del Rey."

"We can see that the players from both teams, led by referee Juan Roca, are coming out one after another."

"Here's the starting line-up list we just got for both teams."

"Deportivo La Coruna's starting tactics are still their best 4231 tactics."

"The goalkeeper is Jacques Songo; The backline is Romero, Naibet, Donato and Pablo; In midfield, captain Mauro Silva and Jokanovic were in charge, with Forlan, Dejaminha and Victor Sanchez in front, and Dutchman Mackay in the centre. ”

"It can be clearly seen that Irueta is going to fight with his main force tonight."

"After winning the La Liga title last season, Deportivo La Coruna has spent a lot of money this summer, bringing in strong reinforcements, including Tristan on the bench, as well as Bellerón, Capdevilla and Molina, who did not travel with the team to Madrid.

"These are all outstanding star players, and the overall strength of Super Laco can be described as improving by leaps and bounds, and he is still the favorite to win the title this season, second only to Real Madrid, who have just set two world transfer records in a row."

"Let's look at Atletico again."

'Atletico's starting line-up is a bit unpredictable, with Edwin van der Sar in goal, right wing-back Belletti, centre-backs Lucio and Mauricio Pochettino at the back, but the left-back doesn't know how it was arranged.

'In midfield, Graveson and Baraja started together, and it should be a pair of midfielders, with Vicente, Deco and Joaquín in front, which should come as no surprise."

"But Yang Hao arranged two strikers for this game, Frenchman Patrick Evra and Uruguayan striker Pandiani."

"Could it be that Yang Hao is planning to change to 352 tactics?"

"We still have to wait until the game to see the clues."

"The players of both teams have already entered the stadium and now the captains of both teams, Atletico Madrid's Baraja, will play with Deportivo Mauro Silva."

"The game is about to start."

……

When the formation of the two teams swings to the field, it is immediately clear who is playing in which position.

Everyone was surprised to find that Patrice Evra, who was supposed to play as a striker, was pulled to the left wing-back position.

"This kid really has to cause some accidents every time." In front of the away team's dugout, Irueta laughed and shook her head.

He didn't take Evra seriously.

It doesn't matter if the Frenchman plays as a striker or a full-back, the result is the same for Deportivo La Coruna.

With the current strength of Deportivo La Coruna, there is no need to look at Atletico Madrid's face at all, but just do your best.

"Tell them that according to the original plan, don't give them a chance to breathe after the opening, launch a rush directly from the middle and right, attack their left side, and give me a complete blow to them!"

Irueta gave the order decisively.

Assistant coach Melo agreed, immediately walked to the sidelines, shouted the names of De Jaminha and Victor Sanchez, and signaled him to attack from the left to open the breach.

With a centre-forward like Mackay in the middle, as long as the flanks tear the hole, then the goal is a sure thing.

Victor Sánchez raised his hand to signal that he had heard.

Irueta turned his attention to Atletico's backfield and was a bit surprised.

Santi Denia didn't play, but let Brazilian centre-back Lucio go up.

This Brazilian has a really strong body, and he is tall, and his face is full of horizontal flesh, and he looks very difficult to mess with.

Not to mention, at first glance, Iruetta thought that this kid was a good embryo.

"Look at the Brazilian." Irueta reminded Merlot.

Deportivo La Coruna is also lacking a high-level central defender now, and if Lucio's level is really good, Deportivo can completely grab it.

Big fish eat small fish, and small fish eat dried shrimp.

Deportivo La Coruna is now destined for Atletico Madrid!

……

Tonight, 50,000 Atletico fans gathered at the Calderón Stadium.

Their first exclamation of the game came in the 23rd second of the game, followed by a passionate cheer.

Deportivo La Coruna took the lead and Atletico actively organized forward pressing, but the players had not yet found the rhythm of the game, especially the double midfielders of Graveson and Baraja, and the cooperation was not tacit enough.

Dejaminha picked up the ball and broke through between the two midfielders to find Roy Mackay.

The Dutchman was about to get the ball on the edge of the penalty area, but suddenly a huge force rushed from his side and knocked him away, and the place that belonged to him was snatched by the Brazilian central defender wearing an Atletico shirt.

Referee Roca did not blow the whistle.

After Lucio grabbed the ball, he raised his hand, signaled his teammates to break fast, and rushed forward with the ball himself.

This move immediately made Ma Kai behind him directly confused.

it!

You're a centre-back!

Lucio rushed with the ball for a while, then quickly passed to his teammate Belletti, who had cut in on the right, before slowly retreating to Mackay's side.

The Dutch centre-forward took a serious look at the defender and his first impression was ...... It's so strong!

Atletico fans cheered enthusiastically when Lucio made a successful steal and advanced with the ball.

In an instant, the enthusiasm on the football field burst out.

……

"Ha, heavyweight vs. middleweight, crush!"

In front of the home team's coach's seat, Yang Hao couldn't help laughing.

Lucio and Roy Mackay, both 1.88 meters tall, but their weight difference is 10 kilograms.

Under the equal superiority of forces, it is difficult for Mackay to take advantage of Lucio.

Not to mention, Lucio's speed, explosiveness, and bounce are all excellent.

Even in 2023, it is rare to see a central defender as strong as Lucio, who is so strong that he explodes, and has super single defense ability.

Yang Hao's frontal defensive strategy this season is actually very simple, I will let Lucio go out and fight alone, and arrange people behind him to assist in defense.

From the current point of view, Pochettino dragged on at the end, and the effect is okay.

Yang Hao turned his head and glanced at the away team's coach's seat, and found that Irueta and the others were also confused.

It is true that Roy Mackay is not known for his physical confrontation, but takes the route of scoring efficiency, and this type of player requires flexibility, but this does not mean that Roy Mackay is inferior in strength confrontation.

Conversely, not having enough strength to fight and wanting to score with the ball in the box?

But as soon as he came up, as soon as he made contact, he was directly killed by Lucio, although it was while Ma Kai didn't pay attention, but it was scary enough, that kid with a face full of meat was a drug addict, right?

Irueta also happened to turn his head and meet Yang Hao's gaze, and the latter grinned, making the Spaniard feel empty in his heart, not to mention more responsiveness.

Who are these people?

……

Roy Mackay is clearly not a vegetarian either.

After suffering a dark loss just now, he immediately knew that he was at an absolute disadvantage in terms of physical confrontation.

In that case, I'm not going to fight with you, I'm going to retreat, right?

But just as the Dutchman withdrew from Atletico's defensive zone and retreated to receive De Jaminha's pass, another figure rushed next to him.

Ma Kai was stunned in his heart, and his movements almost instinctively stopped, guarding against the other party bumping into him again.

Unexpectedly, Lucio fell directly to the ground and tackled this time, destroying the ball again.

The Brazilian got up from the ground, patted the grass clippings on his body as if nothing had happened, and retreated.

That's fast!

When Ma Kai retreated, he paid special attention to Lucio's position, obviously still a lot behind him, how could he rush to the front with one arrow step.

The Dutchman knew immediately that he was in trouble tonight.

He immediately made a gesture to his teammate.

The idea is pricked, and the wind is tight!

Deportivo La Coruna's players were also confused.

It's been less than 2 minutes, and Mackay has been done?

Everyone made eye contact, immediately changed the offensive line, and we played on the right side.

……

As a player from Real Madrid's academy, Victor Sanchez doesn't look down on Atletico Madrid at all.

This team has an upstart vibe inside and out.

Where is like our Real Madrid, everywhere seems so graceful and luxurious, so extraordinary, so ......

Uh, here comes the ball.

Mackay can't open up the situation in the middle, I'll just help him tear up the defense on the right side.

Victor Sanchez glanced at Evra behind him, barely reaching his shoulder, what threat could he have?

But just as the right winger of Deportivo La Coruna was about to stop the ball, a roar suddenly came from behind him.

"Juan Ma, I'll kill you!"

This sudden angry shout startled Victor Sánchez, his movements were a little sluggish, and before he could react, a figure quickly jumped out of his side like an arrow and snatched the football that came to Sanchez.

After watching Patrice Evra snatch the ball and race along the left flank, he could be heard roaring in front of him.

"See? Juan Ma, labor and management are forwards, forwards, forwards!! ”

As a result, the Frenchman was tipped out on the left flank by Mauro Silva just past the middle.

Atletico's throw-in then launched a small attack, but it failed to threaten.

By the time Evra walked back, Victor Sánchez looked at the opposing "enemy" with interest.

"Hey."

Evra looked up and looked strangely at his opponent in front of him.

"I'm not called Juanma, I'm called Victor."

Evra looked at him with an idiot look for a few seconds before turning and walking past him.

"Shut up!"

This immediately made Victor Sánchez furious.

He's a great horse...... When did the players who came out of the academy be ridiculed like this by the scum of Atletico Madrid?

As Deportivo were about to attack Atletico's left flank, Victor Sanchez soon had another chance to catch the ball.

This time he prepared in advance and stopped steadily.

But almost at the same time, Evra stuck to it, still shouting: "Juanma, I'll kill you!" ”

"I'm going to kill you, Juanma!"

Victor Sanchez was angry, "Are you annoyed? All said, my name is Vic......"

Uh, before I could finish it, the ball was lost.

This little boy is so flexible!

Only Victor Sanchez was left with a back to sprint with the ball, and after crossing the halfway line this time, the kid actually split the ball alone, avoided the blocked Mauro Silva, and launched an attack directly on the left side.

"Juanma, labor and management are the strikers! Striker!! Striker!!! ”
