348 La Liga Peak Battle! Textbook to beat Atletico Madrid [10,000 words, kneel and beg for subscription]

In a long season, the psychology of the players is really important.

Fans can often see that a certain team is defeated on a certain front, but it can change the front and behave very violently.

Obviously, the lineup is the same set, why is there such a big difference?

To put it bluntly, a lot of times it's morale, pressure and prospects that affect the psychology of the players.

It's like in the 26th round of La Liga, Valencia counterattacked Barcelona in the standings.

Many people will find it strange when they see it, isn't it just an occasional counterattack? What's the big deal?

Previously, Valencia's ranking was also above Barcelona, why didn't you see such a big reaction?

Wait for Barcelona to come back, isn't it?

The truth is indeed the same reason, but the problem is that in the 26th round of La Liga, Valencia counterattacked, and with the state, morale and fighting spirit that Barcelona is currently showing, it is very likely to lose the top three in the league this season.

It's definitely not just a matter of third and fourth, and it's not just a question of the top three in the Western Super League.

If Valencia really counterattacks this season and finishes in the top three, it means that the strength pattern of La Liga is changing.

The Bat Army has invested heavily for many years, but has always been ridiculed as nouveau riche by other teams, believing that they have invested hugely, but the income is not high, and they have never been able to shake the status of the three giants of the Western Super League.

But now, they're finally starting to be among the top teams.

This is a bit like Yang Hao's previous life, the season when Manchester City won the Premier League title.

And that's just the beginning.

The same is true of Valencia now.

Judging from the current situation, the strength of the Madrid duo is obviously stronger, Valencia really wants to step on Barcelona, and then it will not be so easy for Barcelona to chase it back.

Especially considering that after the counterattack into the top three, Valencia will continue to strengthen the reinforcements and continue to improve the competitiveness of the team, but what about Barcelona?

In the race for stars, they no longer have an advantage.

In other words, from now on, whenever it comes to La Liga championships, Valencia will be an unavoidable hurdle.

Yang Hao is more concerned about the contradictions within Barcelona.

So far this season, Barcelona have had a poor record against strong teams.

Whether it's against Atletico Madrid, against Real Madrid, or against Valencia, the results are not ideal.

Jose Mourinho's team fell out of the top three, and the three giants of the Spanish Super League were shaken, which was the result of Barcelona's internal contradictions.

Especially after the defeat to Valencia, the Catalan media barely shy away from exposing the contradictions between Mourinho and technical director Begiristan.

The two of them apparently couldn't urinate in a pot anymore.

Judging from the information currently available to Yang Hao, the contradictions between Mourinho and Begiristan have become more and more acute.

Judging from the news obtained from many sources, Begiristan was not optimistic about his long-term coaching when he took over from Mourinho.

After three years of cooperation, the two have accumulated a lot of contradictions.

It is said that the Barcelona hierarchy is already seriously considering future plans.

Change of coach?

It's certainly an option, but the question is, who is going to coach Barça now?

The squad created by Mourinho is against the tradition of Barcelona in its bones, leaning towards strength and defensive counter-attacks.

Barcelona's past heritage is not of much use to Barça's current one.

To return, it will inevitably require a large-scale restructuring.

Barcelona is still in debt.

Large-scale restructuring and huge investment, not to mention whether Barcelona can pass the financial audit of La Liga, even if it passes, the club's debt will be further expanded, which is acceptable to Barcelona's management?

Another question is, it's easy to get Jose Mourinho, who to replace?

From the current point of view, there are not many famous coaches in European football.

Liverpool's Rafael Benitez is a typical Real Madridist who has little consideration for Barcelona.

Louis van Gaal has taken charge of Bayern Munich after AZ Alkmaar's coaching results rebounded, but it is unlikely that Mikazu will be in charge of Barca.

The more promising is the interior of La Liga.

For example, Villarreal coach Manuel Pellegrini, Sevilla manager Juan de Ramos, Espanyol manager Ernesto Valverde, Almeria's Unai Emery, and Deschamps Deschamps of Deportivo La Coruna.

These are all hot candidates.

Among them, Juan de Ramos and Valverde are both from Barcelona.

The former has coached the second team of Barcelona, and the latter is a Barcelona player.

But it will not be easy to poach Valverde from the Spaniards, a sworn enemy.

Judging from the media opinion, many people are inclined towards Juander Ramos, because his coaching style is closer to Mourinho, which can ensure that Barca's squad continues without breaking the bones.

The current La Liga competition is very fierce, and it can even be said that it is miserable.

Barcelona did not dare to change the coach easily, and even did not dare to make decisions casually, for fear that one would accidentally fall out of the top four in the league.

Over the past few years, under the influence of Atletico Madrid, especially with the increase in overall income in La Liga, the competition has become more and more fierce, and the management of major clubs has gradually become formalized.

Or it should be said that those teams that are not willing to be formal have been eliminated and relegated.

This leads to the fact that the current position of La Liga is relatively stronger and more stable than Yang Hao's previous life.

At the end of the day, the cost of changing the coach is getting higher and higher.

But what follows is that the standard for selecting coaches is getting higher and higher.

In Yang Hao's previous life, the competition was not fierce, the team was not formal, and the head coach often became the back-bearer of poor results, and there were many absurd examples.

But now, this is becoming less and less.

Not only the head coach of Spain, but also France's Arsene Wenger and Didier Deschamps, Italy's Carlo Ancelotti, Portugal's Jose Mourinho, Mexico's Aguirre, Chile's Pellegrini......

The current La Liga can be said to have gathered famous coaches from all over the world.

Even, not long ago, it was reported that Aragonés is retiring and Cooper is likely to return to coach Real Mallorca.

The Champions League-winning coach has been waiting for a chance to return to management since stepping down from Inter Milan.

Incidentally, Pochettino coached Atletico Madrid's second team this season and led the team to play in La Liga, and the results were not bad.

His current coaching style is very similar to Pochettino's in Yang Hao's previous life, but now he has also been influenced by Yang Hao.

On the contrary, Pep Guardiola, who has always been an assistant coach in the first team, has no intention of coaching alone for the time being.

In his own words, he wasn't ready.

Barcelona tried to invite Guardiola back several times, all as assistants, but Guardiola refused.

……

On the evening of March 16, the Emirates Stadium in Madrid.

In the second leg of the Champions League round of 16, Atletico Madrid hosted Bayern.

A 4-2 away win over Bayern Munich in the first leg gave a huge advantage to the second leg.

Atletico at home played more calmly.

On the contrary, it was Van Gaal's Bayern, in the case of little hope of qualifying, Van Gaal chose to open up in the second leg, trying to launch a rush from the beginning, and the away team took the lead.

But as a result, in the 13th minute, Iniesta sent an assist, and Messi scored on the right side of the penalty area.

1 to 0!

The goal almost condemned Bayern to death.

The aggregate score was extended to 5-2.

Just nine minutes later, Kaka sent in a clever pass and Adriano used his body to demichelis in the box and then fired a left-footed volley into the net to extend the lead further.

2 to 0!

With two goals, Bayern has been completely sentenced to death.

Van Gaal, despite his reluctance, had to accept the result.

The ensuing game went into garbage time entirely.

It wasn't until the 56th minute that Alves stepped forward to participate in the attack and assisted Messi to score his third goal.

3 to 0!

And before the end of the game, Suarez, who came on as a substitute, scored another goal and locked the score at 4-0!

In the end, Atletico Madrid slaughtered Bayern with 4 goals at home, and the aggregate score was 8-2 to successfully advance to the quarterfinals.

……

Atletico's progress to the quarter-finals came as no surprise.

From the 4-2 win in the first leg, everyone expected this result.

I just didn't expect Bayern to lose so badly away from home.

0-4, Van Gaal's team can be described as a defeat.

With Atletico Madrid's advancement, the Champions League quarterfinals have also been released.

The four teams in La Liga, Atletico Madrid, Real Madrid, Barcelona and Valencia had some twists and turns in the course of the game, but they all successfully advanced to the quarterfinals of the Champions League.

This also made everyone see the strength of La Liga again.

The other four teams are Manchester United and Chelsea from the Premier League, Lyon from Ligue 1 and Inter Milan from Serie A.

When the Champions League quarter-finals were announced, the world's media were speculating about who would meet whom.

According to UEFA's usual preference, it must be Atletico Madrid vs. Inter Milan.

Adriano, Sanchez, Vidal and others have all encountered their old clubs, which is undoubtedly very interesting.

And it's also very much in line with UEFA's usual style.

But the final result surprised everyone.

Atletico drew Barcelona.

La Liga once again staged a civil war in the quarterfinals.

Joining Atletico in the semi-zone is Lyon against Chelsea.

In the other half, Manchester United drew Valencia and Inter Milan drew Real Madrid.

In a way, the draw was far from UEFA's.

But after the results of the draw came out, the media throughout Spain followed suit.

UEFA is in the news that La Liga is trying to curb it again.

It's obvious.

Atletico Madrid meets Barcelona, Yang Hao and Mourinho's old enemies face off, which goes without saying.

Jose Mourinho had beaten Atletico Madrid in the knockout rounds of the Champions League before.

Lyon's touch on Chelsea looked like they were defending the Blues.

Of the four teams in La Liga competing in Europe, Valencia are considered the weakest, while the Bats are the least cohesive and have the worst performance in tough matches.

This is also the reason why many fans ridiculed Valencia as a mercenary.

Manchester United, despite the departure of Nemanja Vidic, Alex Ferguson's side are still regarded as the most competitive team in the Champions League this season and the most likely to break the monopoly of La Liga.

In this case, playing Valencia with Manchester United is obviously a tactic of fighting on the top and fighting on the bottom.

Real Madrid meets Inter Milan, which is also suspenseful, because the Serie A team is good at defense, and the outcome is unpredictable.

The opinion of Spanish fans about the result of this draw is very large.

But the La Liga league and the four participating teams have been prepared for this.

Even, this may become a norm in the future.

UEFA will need to ensure that at least one non-La Liga team advances to the semi-finals.

Otherwise, the game will completely turn into a La Liga civil war.

Yang Hao himself was guessing that UEFA's abacus was very shrewd.

Lyon were the weakest in the quarter-finals, and Chelsea pinched the persimmon and everyone thought they would advance easily.

After Atletico Madrid knocks Barcelona to the death, and then meets Chelsea, who is waiting for work, it is really hard to say.

For UEFA, the best outcome would be for Chelsea to take out either Atletico Madrid or Barcelona, Manchester United or Inter Milan to reach the final, and La Liga's monopoly on the Champions League would end once and for all.

UEFA is really not a conspiracy this time, but a conspiracy.

Draw lots, half of the top 8, La Liga catches and fights, isn't it normal?

If you're unlucky, there's really a chance that you'll fight in pairs, and that's fatal.

……

La Liga Round 27.

Real Madrid host Sporting Gijón at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium.

The first half was a terrible one, with neither side able to score.

But in the 52nd minute of the second half, Sporting Gijón scored the first goal.

Two minutes later, Yaya Toure equalised for Real Madrid.

In the 61st minute, Zlatan Ibrahimovic scored a goal as Real Madrid reversed Sporting Gijón 2-1.

Barcelona lost 1-2 away to Zaragoza in this round.

Jose Mourinho said in his post-match press conference that the team's defeat was influenced by consecutive battles.

But judging from the process of the game, Barcelona's problem is not only fatigue, but also the psychological level of the players.

Atletico Madrid travels to Real Mallorca.

Conceded a goal in the opening nine minutes, but in the 25th minute, Fernando Torres equalised for Atletico.

Then the game went to a stalemate.

Atletico controlled the ball and the tempo, but Real Mallorca held on to the goal.

Aragonés' side have been doing well this season, and with the clarity that he will be officially retiring at the end of the season, Real Mallorca's players are also working hard.

In the second half, Yang Hao began to replace players who participated in the Champions League, especially Messi.

In the 65th minute, Messi, who had just come on as a substitute, scored a goal for Atletico Madrid to exceed the score.

In the 78th minute, an assist from Modric allowed Messi to score another city, 3-1!

In the end, Atletico Madrid defeated Real Mallorca 3-1 away, and Messi scored a brace.

After this round of games, the biggest talk came from Barcelona being pulled out of the gap by Valencia.

The Bats beat Almeria 2-0 at home thanks to goals from Sneijder and Juan Mata.

Barcelona lost, Valencia won and the gap between third and fourth widened to four points.

This is worse for both Mourinho and Barcelona.

Especially Jose Mourinho.

The accusations against him in the Catalan media are already becoming more and more obvious.

But Mourinho insists there is nothing wrong with his own coaching, and the real problem is already in the squad and signings, with the finger pointed directly at Begiristan.

Begiristan also fought back, and the contradictions between the two sides became more and more intense.

World Sports even broke the news that Mourinho had clearly told Laporta that he and Begiristan could only keep one in the Gamble Sports City next season!

The daily sports newspaper revealed that the Barcelona management is very dissatisfied with the team's current situation.

It's not just the results, it's the tension between the dressing room, the coaching staff and the technical team.

However, the Barcelona president said in an interview with a media reporter that "there is indeed a difference between José and Tesicchi, they have different ideas and opinions, which is very normal. ”

"The only thing I can say is that there is absolutely no problem with the relationship between them."

This is undoubtedly also the openness of the contradictions between Mourinho and Begiristan.

……

In midweek, the 28th round of La Liga.

In the face of successive crises, Barcelona hosted Osasuna.

In the first 70 minutes of the game, Barcelona was unable to attack for a long time.

Everyone felt that Jose Mourinho's side were likely to suffer a sullen draw at home.

But at the crucial moment, Diego Milito's goal in the 73rd minute saved a victory for Mourinho.

Robben's breakthrough down the right provided a brilliant assist for the Argentine.

And near the end of the game, Bojan, who came on as a substitute, scored again.

In the end, Barcelona beat Osasuna 2-0 at home.

With the win, Mourinho was in a much better mood.

But the next day, Valencia beat Malaga 1-0 thanks to Villa's goal in the 12th minute.

The Bats, despite their poor performances, continued to maintain their lead over Barcelona.

Real Madrid scored a brace on the road thanks to Cristiano Ronaldo and Zlatan Ibrahimovic, beating Getafe 4-2.

Atletico Madrid, on the other hand, defeated Athletic Bilbao 2-0 at home thanks to goals from Fernando Torres and Messi.

……

At the weekend, the 29th round of La Liga.

The highlight of this round is the Madrid City Derby.

The match attracted the attention of media and fans all over the world.

As early as before the game, Yang Hao said in an interview with the media that after beating Real Madrid away, Atletico Madrid was able to shorten the points gap.

At the moment, the Sheets are four points behind Real Madrid.

Arsene Wenger is very pleased with his team's performance this season, but he also revealed that he has not slept well for two days for this game, and has been studying how to deal with Atletico.

'We and Atletico are two of the strongest teams in world football today and this season at the Emirates Stadium we lost the game and went back to the Bernabeu and we hope to come back to the game!'

Arsene Wenger revealed that as long as he wins Atletico Madrid at home, the lead can be extended to 7 points, which is already a very safe and secure line for Real Madrid.

Real Madrid are aiming to win the title, while Atletico Madrid are chasing after it.

This has made the Madrid derby a strong fan of the media and fans around the world.

Before the game, the atmosphere of the decisive battle enveloped the entire sky over Madrid, and tickets were sold out early.

Occasionally, there were sporadic loose tickets, and they were immediately snatched up by the waiting fans.

Scalpers can pay up to 1,000 euros.

This is already quite an outrageously high price!

It shows the anticipation of the fans of both teams for this game.

On the day of the game, from 9 o'clock in the morning, the outside of the Bernabeu stadium was already crowded.

At 14:30 in the afternoon, Real Madrid President Florentino led a group of high-level executives to host a banquet for Atletico Madrid President Cerezo, general manager Junior Hill and other high-level executives, and the two sides were interviewed by media reporters before and after the dinner.

Although the derby between the two teams is getting more and more intense, the relationship and communication between the top management is good.

This is also reflected in the remarks made by both sides in media interviews.

Florentino's slogan leaves no room for manoeuvre, demanding that the whole team must aim for the championship.

And if you want to win the title, you have to win at home against Atletico Madrid.

'It's definitely a successful season for us, but we have to beat Atletico!'

"Real Madrid's players have the belief that they must win!"

But Florentino also said that the match was the pride of La Liga.

"We have superstars like Cristiano Ronaldo, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Joaquín and Andrea Pirlo, and Atletico have superstars like Messi, Kaka, Torres and Adriano."

"With so many superstars competing on the same field, this is the pinnacle matchup in La Liga and even world football!"

Florentino appealed to Real Madrid fans to have confidence in the team, "We have to believe in the players and enjoy this football feast to the fullest!" ”

Atletico Madrid's president, Cerezo, said: "This victory may determine the title and will play a key role in the rest of the season." ”

"I'm sure the Atletico players are ready!"

After each of them put aside their harsh words, the two sides went to the Bernabeu Stadium together.

The kind of life-and-death competition on the court does not affect the cooperation between the two sides off the court.

……

March 28, Bernabéu Stadium, Madrid.

Arsene Wenger put on a rare 442 formation in this game.

Goalkeepers: Casillas;

Defence: Ashley Cole, Nemanja Vidic, Kompany and Lahm;

Midfielders: Andrea Pirlo trails behind, Essien and Las Diarra split flanks, Yaya Toure comes forward;

Forwards: Cristiano Ronaldo and Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

It can be seen from the starting list that Wenger has adopted a different style of play in this game, and he uses a small diamond shape in the midfield of 442 to deal with Atletico, clearly wanting to strengthen the midfield's strangulation of Atletico Madrid.

Yang Hao has always emphasized that those who win the midfielder win the world.

Now, Arsene Wenger is going to fight Atletico in midfield.

The fact that Essien and Las Diarra came on at the same time was a testament to the importance Wenger took to the game, but also showed that his overall tactics were more defensive.

Due to the suspension of central defender Thiago Silva for accumulating yellow cards, Atletico Madrid also had to make some adjustments.

Goalkeepers: Manuel Neuer;

Defence: Patrice Evra, Ramos, Pepe and Alves;

Midfielders: Xavi Alonso trails behind, with Andres Iniesta partnering Kaka in front;

Forwards: David Silva, Fernando Torres and Lionel Messi.

The Madrid derby was star-studded on both sides.

Both teams are star-studded and their overall strength is second to none in European football.

Moreover, Madrid's results are among the best in European football.

In addition, the globalization of the two teams has been very successful in the past few years, and La Liga has also focused on publicity, and the influence of the Madrid derby has even surpassed the national derby and has become a football feast that fans all over the world flock to.

This game is no exception.

The world was broadcast live simultaneously, countless media gathered in Madrid, and countless fans were looking forward to it, all for this focus battle.

Yang Haozhuo stood on the sidelines, watching the players of the two teams set up their respective positions, and he found a very interesting phenomenon.

Real Madrid were given the kick-off, but it wasn't the two-strikers who kicked off.

Standing in the centre circle, the tee off opposite Ibrahimovic was Yaya Toure.

Cristiano Ronaldo appeared on the left side of the halfway line.

"Arsene Wenger always likes to have something that he doesn't." Yang Hao muttered a complaint.

Juanma Lillo and Pep Guardiola looked at each other and smiled.

Yang Hao has a good relationship with Wenger, but on the court, no one will stay.

It can be seen from Real Madrid's starting lineup that the players appointed by Wenger are the kind of players who can run, grab and foul.

As for Ronaldo, Ronaldo opened on the left side, which may be in doubt.

And the facts also proved the guesses of Yang Hao and the coaching staff.

As soon as the game started, the pace was fast.

Within 1 minute, the ball changed hands 3 times, and you went back and forth to attack.

Especially in the 55th second, Cristiano Ronaldo and Ashley Cole on the left made a beautiful attacking combination to create a corner.

This made the Bernabeu fans very excited.

In less than 1 minute, a corner was awarded.

It was a rare opportunity to threaten Atletico's goal.

Andrea Pirlo took a quick corner and it landed in the box.

Nemanja Vidic, Cristiano Ronaldo, Yaya Toure, Kompany and Zlatan Ibrahimovic all rushed over to grab the spot, but Neuer judged where the ball had landed, and then broke out and punched the ball out of the box.

The ball fell to the periphery of the penalty area, and when Iniesta got the ball, just about to start, Essien made a falling tackle and knocked the small white shovel to the ground, and the referee blew the whistle to signal a foul, but did not take out the card.

Essien's defense looked fierce this time, but it was actually quite clean.

But the Real Madrid fans at the scene only saw the fierce side, and they all cheered excitedly.

Obviously, in a game like this, they all want Real Madrid players to be more bloody.

……

Essien's foul was like a footnote to the game.

As the game progressed, everyone noticed that there were really a lot of fouls on both sides.

Real Madrid did not adopt the tactics of strict defense, but took the initiative to press out, and even pressed very forward.

The midfield combination of Essien, Las Diarra and Yaya Toure gave Arsene Wenger enough confidence to dare to press his team up.

Moreover, Ibrahimovic and Cristiano Ronaldo both played very aggressively in this game.

Cristiano Ronaldo has even dropped back into midfield to get involved in defence.

The pace of the game was fast, and the two sides went back and forth, and they fought happily.

But from time to time, there is also a scene of people turning on their backs.

It's basically against the ball, without any intention of hurting anyone.

Even if a player is tripped, he immediately gets up, takes a quick free kick, and continues to attack.

In this intense atmosphere, players from both sides played without reservation.

In the fifth minute of the game, there was a scene that was very good at the tactics of Real Madrid.

Manuel Neuer received the ball near the penalty spot in the penalty area and two of Atletico's centre-backs pulled away to the flanks.

At this time, Cristiano Ronaldo and Ibrahimovic each played with a central defender.

Yaya Toure followed Xavi Alonso.

This forced Neuer to fail to find the ball and was forced to take it to the right and quickly pass it back to Alves, who ran back to pick it up.

But by the time the Brazilian received the ball on the right side of the box, Essien had already rushed in front of him.

With Alves' personal ability, he was also very afraid of Essien's close marking, so he had to turn around and clear the ball and kick the ball forward, but he didn't kick it well and kicked the ball out of bounds directly.

Real Madrid's throw-in.

At this moment, the Bernabeu stadium resounded with deafening applause.

Real Madrid fans are clearly very happy with the passion and fighting spirit of the team.

Real Madrid are the leaders now!

Atletico quickly snatched the ball in their own half.

As a result, after the continuous inversion, it was Real Madrid's forward pressure.

Ibrahimovic first pressed on Ramos, forcing Ramos to pass back to goalkeeper Manuel Neuer, and then he rushed towards Neuer.

At this time, Ronaldo followed Pepe, causing Neuer to find no suitable person to pass the ball at all, and had to pass back to the right side.

As soon as Alves got the ball, Ronaldo had already rushed in front of him.

Moreover, Ronaldo's running line just cut off the ball path from Alves to Pepe.

Alves had no choice but to play another long pass and kick the ball into the front of the field.

As a result, the ball was picked up by Real Madrid.

It was through this kind of physical running that Real Madrid put tremendous pressure on Atletico Madrid in the frontcourt.

Essien, Las Diarra and Yaya Toure were also active in pushing forward, taking part in the pressing ahead.

This made the Sheets play very awkwardly after the opening.

Gradually, Yang Hao also noticed Ronaldo's position.

As Pep Guardiola has said before, he started on the left flank and moved on the left flank a lot of the time, but in reality, he drilled wherever there was a gap.

For example, in the 8th minute, after Pirlo and Messi were closely entangled, he successfully grabbed the ball and passed it to Essien, who sent a direct pass to the feet of Ronaldo in front.

At this moment, Ronaldo is standing on the right side of the middle.

As soon as the Portuguese received the ball, he immediately started quickly and took the ball all the way.

Atletico's backline was also very fast, which made Real Madrid's quick counter-attack fail to threaten.

When Cristiano Ronaldo rushed to the edge of the box, he passed the ball to Ibrahimovic and he was as fast as he could get forward.

Ibrahimovic understood, met Ronaldo's pass, picked up his right foot, and went straight behind him with a pick-up pass.

Seeing that Ronaldo quickly plugged in, the anti-offside position was successful, and when he was about to form a single knife, Neuer suddenly killed.

When Ronaldo wanted to volley, the German goalkeeper took the lead and saved the ball directly.

The Portuguese closed his feet in time and missed a great chance by not getting to Manuel Neuer.

Ronaldo gave a dejected thumbs up to Ibrahimovic and walked back with a wry smile out of breath.

Just now, if Neuer had been a little slower, the ball would have been there.

……

Amid the cheers of the Real Madrid fans, the game was very intense and very fast-paced.

If it weren't for the fact that both sides were very skillful in passing and receiving, and accurate, Yang Hao would have doubted that this was a Premier League game.

But there was no shortage of great crosses or individual performances from the stars.

Judging from the opening, the Real Madrid players came prepared and performed more brilliantly.

Atletico Madrid were suppressed in midfield and struggled to break into Real Madrid's penalty area.

I have to say that Wenger's style of play, especially pushing the entire defense line to a high position near the 30-meter area, still has a great impact on Atletico Madrid.

But the success of this style of play is based on the three world-class midfielders of Essien, Yaya Toure and Lars Diarra.

Today's Lars Diarra is under the tutelage of Arsene Wenger, and the overall strength is very good, but he is a little sticky.

"Will this style of play become the mainstream for other teams to restrain us?" Pep Guardiola was a little depressed.

It was clear that Atletico's rhythm was disrupted.

Especially the foul on Real Madrid.

But Real Madrid's counter-attack was fast and sharp.

'No, unless they also have three of these world-class midfielders.' Yang Hao said very firmly.

Essien and Las Diarra are both very good runners, and they are not tall, fast, they can grab and pester.

This type, with this kind of midfielder at the same time, it is difficult for other teams to find one, want to find two?

Don't be funny!

Add to that a Yaya Toure and great physically, strength and technique.

That's why Wenger has the confidence to press high positions, and even the reason for full-court pressing.

"His style of play is similar to Mourinho's style of play, and they are all hooligans." Juanma Lillo scolded nonchalantly.

This is reflected in the number of fouls committed by Real Madrid.

There are so many!

But the hooligan thing is that all the fouls are within the referee's scale, so there are no yellow cards.

This is definitely prepared.

To say that Arsene Wenger did not specialize in this part before the game, can Real Madrid's players do so well?

"Hooligans are not scary, but they are afraid that hooligans are educated!" Yang Hao said with a smile.

Arsene Wenger is a cultured rogue leader.

Juanma Lillo and Pep Guardiola both burst out laughing.

But I think so, Yang Hao's evaluation.

It was at this moment that I saw that in the stadium, Real Madrid once again played a counterattack.

After Ronaldo received Yaya Toure's pass in the middle, he stopped the ball directly to get rid of Kaka's entanglement, and then passed Xavi Alonso, rushed forward with the ball alone, and when facing Pepe, he directly wanted to share the ball alone.

The Portuguese kicked the ball towards the baseline and chased it as fast as he could.

But Pepe was prepared, turned around very quickly, and followed directly, squeezing Ronaldo away with his body.

The Portuguese's bravery was evident in this moment, and after being squeezed away by Pepe, he turned and chased after him, directly on the edge of the line with a sliding tackle to shovel the ball off the line.

The stadium erupted in thunderous cheers again.

Countless Real Madrid fans are singing praises for Ronaldo.

Yang Hao was also taken aback.

If it had been split by the ball just now, Ibrahimovic in the middle would have been in danger.

"Messi, Kaka and Torres were a little bit less than ideal tonight, especially Messi, who couldn't get the ball." Lello frowned.

Yang Hao exhaled heavily.

Glancing at the time.

No more, no less, exactly 10 minutes.

From the perspective of a fan, these 10 minutes are simply amazing!

Not a single goal, not even a few shots, but it was really exciting, the pace was fast and the attack was wave after wave.

Such a game can only be seen in La Liga, only in the Madrid derby.

The forces of the players on both sides are too strong.

Even defenders like Essien and Russ Diarra have a strong touch on the ball.

This makes the game very interesting.

But the suspense is also very sufficient.

As the head coach of the team, Yang Hao had to admit that in the first 10 minutes, Atletico Madrid was at a disadvantage, and was stopped by Real Madrid's style of play, and he didn't even shoot a shot.

"I now, I really believe that Wenger guy hasn't slept for 2 days and 2 nights." Yang Hao smiled bitterly.

Tossing out such a tactic is indeed very brain-burning.

In today's La Liga, and even throughout Europe, countless teams are trying to restrain Atletico Madrid.

There are all kinds of plays, including buckets like Mourinho.

But among the many opponents, Wenger's style of play is the most literary and fresh.

To put it simply, with the most elegant attitude, do the dirtiest work of the rascals.

Just 10 minutes, all the fans will feel worth it!

Because of such 10 minutes, except for the Madrid derby, there is absolutely no second game that can be played!

……

"It's been 10 minutes!"

Arsene Wenger glanced at the time on the scoreboard and clenched his hands into fists.

He looked a little excited.

In those 10 minutes, Atletico were forced by Real Madrid to not even have a shot on goal.

The game was also being played according to Arsene Wenger's pre-match calculations and assumptions.

Take the initiative to defend and take a tougher defensive stance at home, while also being more active on the counter-attack.

That's Arsene Wenger's strategy!

So far, 10 minutes have passed, and it has been very successful.

"Still be careful, Yang Hao's adjustment is very fast." Assistant coach Boro Primorachi reminded.

Arsene Wenger nodded.

He was never a reckless person who easily lost his cool.

On the contrary, he is most talked about for his ability to keep his sanity at all times.

Of course, he knew that Yang Hao would adjust, but he would also adjust with Yang Hao's adjustment.

With the success of the first 10 minutes, Real Madrid almost sent a textbook template to other teams around the world to curb Atletico's attack, telling them that this is how Atletico Madrid defend!

If Atletico Madrid has been the public enemy of all teams in European football in the past few years, and is a god in the hearts of fans all over the world, then Wenger wants to use this game to tell the world: Your god will also bleed!

When God begins to bleed, is it still God?

Arsene Wenger is most proud of his marking on the side of Messi, Kaka and Alves.

He didn't use Chiellini in this game, he used Vidic, he wanted to use Vidic's right foot to contain Messi's inward cut.

Essien contains Kaka, Ronaldo pins down Alves.

Arsene Wenger's targeted defence was a success.

At least so far, Messi has not had many chances to get the ball, and he hasn't even broken through with the ball once.

This is really rare for all fans who are familiar with Messi and Atletico Madrid.

"As long as we continue to follow the current rhythm, according to the current situation, and persevere to the end, then Atletico's defense will definitely be broken by us!" Arsene Wenger is very confident.

Break through Atletico's defence, and that goal will follow.

As long as Atletico Madrid is eliminated in this game, Real Madrid's lead can be extended to 7 points, and the league title has basically been locked in advance.

As soon as he thought of this, Wenger's whole body couldn't stop getting hot.

After winning the Champions League, his ambitions were even greater.

This season, he wants to win the La Liga and Champions League double!

Just when Wenger was full of ambition and restlessness, in front of the away team's coach's box, Yang Hao walked to the sidelines, took advantage of a dead ball opportunity, called nearby Iniesta over, and whispered a few words.

Arsene Wenger frowned.

This damn guy is going to live again!
