Chapter 124 Who Makes Who Look Good? (Twenty-Two/One Hundred and Thirty-Six)
When the game restarted, Real Madrid, who were behind, were not demoralized and depressed. On the contrary, they pressed forward aggressively, and the offensive was like a tide, even more violent than before, hoping to equalize the score as soon as possible.
This is quite normal, and the side behind will do this. Not to mention a team like Real Madrid, how could they allow themselves to fall behind Valencia at home?
Let's not talk about the score gap, but the pressure of the home fans is enough for Real Madrid to catch up.
So sometimes, pressure is actually motivation, it just depends on how you treat it.
But today Real Madrid met Valencia.
In the face of Real Madrid's offensive, Valencia responded calmly-they kept falling in the midfield...
When doing tactical analysis before the game, Chang Sheng had already listed all the possibilities he could think of, and then told the players what to do.
Among them, how to play in the lead is the top priority.
Every player in Valencia knows this, and Chang Sheng has said it many times.
At that time, everyone still felt that the head coach was too confident. Is this lead so easy to achieve?
Who would have thought that they are really leading now!
What to do after taking the lead?
Changsheng asked the players to continue to control the ball, pass it back and forth, don't rush up, and don't create opportunities for the opponent, first hold the defense line and hold the opponent back.
A person who has just fallen into the mire of a swamp struggles desperately.
But when he finds that the more he struggles, the deeper he sinks, he will be honest.
Valencia's countermeasure is to drag Real Madrid into the quagmire.
When Valencia has the ball. The football is passed back and forth between their players.
Naturally, Real Madrid also have to press in the frontcourt, but this is not a problem at all for Valencia, who uses the "mad dog" tactic.
They just need to keep passing the ball and running, and they can run around holding Real Madrid's nose.
In the end, the one who consumes more physical energy is definitely not the one who takes the initiative to do so.
It's a person who runs passively.
Valencia played a dizzying series of passes in the midfield, so that Real Madrid's players couldn't even touch the ball.
Their passing and back footing made the Real Madrid players more and more irritable. No one wanted to play a game that followed the football but could not catch up.
When Real Madrid is attacking, they are less and less particular about tactics. Whoever gets the ball is a long-range shot.
They surpassed Valencia in the number of shots, but the score was still 0:1. Real Madrid, who played at home, fell behind.
Robert. Carlos, the left back, simply didn't go back after being pressed up, and became a complete winger.
Salgado also advanced several times to participate in the attack.
Sometimes, there are only Hierro and Campo in the backcourt of Real Madrid, and the goalkeeper Cesar is three people at home.
And this kind of time is getting more and more with the passage of time...
Seeing this scene from the sidelines, Chang Sheng couldn't help but sneer.
The aristocratic gentlemen of Real Madrid really forget their affairs. How long has it been, less than a season. Just forget what Valencia used to do...
I believe the players in Valencia know what the game situation is like now. It is not safe to lead Real Madrid by one goal. If there is a chance to score another goal, Valencia will definitely not do it.
Now that Real Madrid's defense is so empty, Chang Sheng believes that Valencia's players must know better than him what to do.
After all, this Valencia team has played defensive counterattacks for many years before...
So even though Chang Sheng didn't tell them what to do at this time before the game, Valencia still responded...
※※※
Guardiola retreated to the back line to catch the ball, then turned and sent the ball sideways to Albelda.
Albelda passed the ball to Mendieta, and Mendieta did not choose a pass within 20 meters this time. Instead, he made a long diagonal pass and sent the football to the other side!
Valencia seldom use such a pass in the game. If they want to transfer, they have to pass through the middle.
So Mendieta's sudden long pass greatly exceeded Real Madrid's expectations!
On the left, Vicente cut in at high speed, stretched out his left foot and unloaded the ball in the air beautifully.
Look at his sophisticated look. It's unbelievable that he's only twenty years old...
Mendieta's sudden long pass transfer was a stroke of genius, which completely caught Real Madrid by surprise.
Because here, Salgado has just assisted up, and has not had time to withdraw. Although he is desperately chasing back, but in terms of speed, how can he be Vicente's opponent?
At this time, Real Madrid is empty in the rear, and there are a lot of empty spaces in the backcourt!
"Valencia's...counterattack! An easy pass!"
The narrator was a little surprised.
Because he thought that Mendieta would cooperate with Aimar after he got the ball. In fact, Real Madrid's Makelele also focused on the Argentine midfielder...
But Mendieta made a direct long pass!
Hit Real Madrid by surprise!
Vicente took the ball and sprinted across the wing, while the Real Madrid players went crazy and then retreated to chase.
A classic defensive counterattack is thus completed...
Real Madrid must just want to vomit blood in their hearts at this time: cheating! Who said that Valencia never passes a mid-length pass over 20 meters? Didn't that bastard Chang Sheng say that his team insists on short pass penetration and ground attack routines? Damn, how to explain this!
※※※
Because of the lack of obstacles in front, Vicente just rushed forward with the ball until he got close to the big penalty area. Only then did he gain some speed, but it was only to deal with Ivan who jumped up to defend him. Just Campo.
ivan. After Campo saw that his speed had slowed down, he planned to stick it up. Unexpectedly, Vicente suddenly made an inward movement, Ivan. Campo immediately shifted his focus...
At this moment, Vicente flicked the football to the outside with the instep of his left foot, then accelerated the ball and made a breakthrough!
He entered the restricted area!
"Valencia!! Vicente is so fast! He rushed into the box! Real Madrid are in danger!"
※※※
Real Madrid is indeed in danger.
Goalkeeper Cesar strikes again. But Vicente didn't shoot, but knocked sideways and passed the football to the goal!
When the football passed in front of goalkeeper Cesar, countless Real Madrid fans followed closely...
They seemed to see the scene where their goal was broken for the second time.
Because they saw Ibrahimovic has appeared in front of the door!
"Ibrahimovic -!!!"
The narrator roared with a drawn out voice.
But Ibrahimovic didn't play football.
As Hierro followed him, Ibrahimovic was disturbed and swung his foot to shoot. Didn't play football. The football flew past the two of them...
Crisis over?
No!
"Mendieta—"
The blond Basque with the Valencia captain's armband appeared in the back and volleyed vigorously against the football!
The bang sound seemed to be drawn not on football, but on the hearts of all Real Madrid fans...
The expressions on the faces of many Real Madrid fans have changed!
"L!" This sound was not shouted by the commentator, but by the fans of Valencia!
The Valencia fans in front of the TV and at the Bernabeu all jumped up from their seats, cheering!
Immediately afterwards, the commentator's voice sounded.
"L!!! Valencia! 2:0! At the end of the first half, Valencia led by two goals! Real Madrid suffered the heaviest blow!"
The Real Madrid fans in the stands were stunned. They never thought about the Copa del Rey final at the Bernabéu. They'll be two goals behind...
Mendieta, who scored the goal, jumped emotionally towards Vicente who assisted him, and Ibrahimovic pushed away Hierro who was still entangled with him. Followed by.
Vicente turned around and opened his arms to the Real Madrid fans in the stands, demonstrating.
Aimar, Guardiola, Albelda, Ayala... No matter where they were before, these players are all rushing up now.
Then they huddled together and shouted loudly to the stands: "Champion! The champion is ours!!"
Faced with their second provocation, the Real Madrid fans hurriedly fell silent.
The reality is too cruel, and some of them can't accept it.
※※※
It is not only the fans of Real Madrid who cannot accept this cruel reality, but also the players of Real Madrid and the top management of the club.
The Real Madrid players stood on the pitch, dumbstruck. Not only Figo, but also Zidane, these superstars are all confused and dejected.
They were beaten 2:0 in the first half, which was really beyond their expectations.
They thought it was the other way around.
Florentino on the rostrum, let alone...
After each goal was conceded, the camera gave Florentino a close-up. Then everyone could see his gloomy expression.
This one will be Santiago. Bernabeu regards himself as the chairman of Real Madrid as his idol, and his biggest dream is to become a great club chairman like Mr. Bernabeu. It should have been a good thing that Real Madrid had been in his tenure for a century, because he could take this opportunity to show the world the strength of Real Madrid.
But pity the first chance. So screwed up...
Valencia, Valencia, his suffering this season. He has been against him since the beginning of the league, and now he even ran to his door to beat him up...
He remembered what Chang Sheng said at the pre-match press conference.
"We're here to mess things up!"
He took it as a joke at the time. Did you really get carried away when you won the league at the Bernabeu? Still want to mess around? Any idea what occasion this is? It's the Copa del Rey final! On an occasion like the Copa del Rey final, how can you be allowed to act wildly on our territory?
When the time comes, it will definitely make you look good!
This idea is still in my mind.
just now...
Who makes who look good?
