Chapter 175 Defensive Experiment (45/136)

It didn't take long for Bosque to feel relieved.

Because he saw Valencia's continuous throughs in the offense, he obviously increased the number and frequency of throughs.

The reasons for this were all too clear to Bosque.

Valencia hopes to use quantitative changes to cause qualitative changes.

They intend to exchange ninety-nine offsides for a chance of success, as long as they succeed again, it will be fine.

Because they have already led by one goal, and if they score another goal, it will be even more difficult for Real Madrid to play in this game.

But Bosque had no other options.

Defense can only be like this, if you want to turn the tide of the battle, you have to look at offense.

Compared with defense, Real Madrid's offense is much more gorgeous.

If you want to break the current game, you can only score goals.

As long as Real Madrid can equalize the score, they can take half of the initiative back.

Then score another goal, and the initiative is all on my side.

At that time, every offensive opportunity of Valencia, which is behind in the score, will be precious, and they will not be able to continue wasting and squandering. In this way, Real Madrid's offside tactics will naturally have decisive power.

But how to score a goal?

Valencia's defense really gave him a headache.

Their defense looked like a group of mad dogs, and the Real Madrid players with the ball were like a piece of meat for the mad dogs to fight for.

No matter who gets the ball, at least two players will surround him immediately.

For the players that are the focus, it's the three Valencia defenders.

A lot of attacks, Real Madrid were spoiled by Valencia at the back, or delayed, lost the best moments.

Bosque even felt that Chang Sheng's name "Mad Dog Tactics" must be based on the characteristics of Valencia's defense, not offense.

Finally, Real Madrid hit the football to the front field,

Valencia changed again and changed his style - sticking to the 30-meter zone. If you go back and forth outside, they just won't go out. In the end, he was forced to take a long shot.

And although everyone is upside down, Real Madrid's downside and Valencia's downside are obviously not the same thing.

Valencia's kick is actually tearing apart the opponent's defense in constant passing and running, while Real Madrid's kick is really just passing the ball back and forth.

The key difference is that Valencia's back foot, many players are running, passing the ball, running, catching, passing, running, catching... it's just a cycle. run. It can make Valencia's offense look like water. Running water does not rot, and this kind of offense has vitality.

And Real Madrid is fairly smooth in the midfield, once they hit the home court, after encountering Valencia's iron wall. They just stagnated.

Most were standing still, or running very slowly.

After passing the ball, it seems that this attack has nothing to do with me, and I just need to wait where I am.

They passed the ball another hundred feet, but they still couldn't tear apart Valencia's defense.

In this way, we can really only rely on the personal strength of the stars to shine.

But look now. Those stars have all fallen into the quagmire of Valencia.

He must not know that the three game skills used to win this game are all defensive skills.

The purpose is not to concede the ball, or to concede less. In this way, going to the home court in the next round will have a chance to win Real Madrid.

In this game, Chang Sheng used the three defensive skills of [Basic Defense], [Great Wall of Flesh and Flesh] and [Siege].

[Elementary defense] is aimed at the overall situation, improving the team's overall defensive ability.

[Great Wall of Flesh] is to strengthen the team's performance when defending the opponent's long-range shots. This is mainly used to play a role in the second defense.

[Siege] is used in the first defense, which can increase the success rate of the press. Although there is a side effect of a 3% increase in physical energy consumption, the season has just started at this time. After a summer of physical reserves, the entire Valencia team is very physically fit. Not afraid of such side effects at all.

So Bosque would feel that those superstars didn't show their strength, but he didn't know that Chang Sheng's three defensive skills played a role...

※※※

Until the end of the first half, although Valencia did not score, they had as many as ten offsides. But Real Madrid also failed to score, and the score was still 1:0. Valencia, who played away, took the lead.

When the first half of the game ended, the reporters in the media seats, the TV commentators, and the commentators all looked at each other in blank dismay.

Those who support Real Madrid have a foreboding in their hearts.

Maybe the team will lose to Valencia...

Look at the game scene, in fact, there is nothing to say about Valencia's offense, the key is defense.

Real Madrid's offensive group is not insignificant. Raul, Ronaldo, Figo, Zidane. These four people are enough for countless giants to drink a pot, plus a frequent follow-up Robert Carlos.

Such an excellent offensive combination. No goals in the first half...

This is somewhat surprising.

Before the game, when the media analyzed the game, although they were optimistic about Real Madrid winning, they also believed that Valencia should be able to score. But the key to Real Madrid's victory in this game is that Real Madrid's offensive lineup is stronger than Valencia's. If they score more goals, Real Madrid will not be afraid of anyone.

I didn't expect that such a strong offensive lineup would have nothing to do with Valencia!

Valencia's defense is better than they thought!

Facing the four superstars, their defense is like the Great Wall of China, standing still!

This performance surprised everyone.

In fact, they don't know that the goal of winning this game is to test the team's defensive ability while striving for victory.

There is no more suitable touchstone than Real Madrid, because Real Madrid's frontcourt is full of world-class superstars.

As a result, the team's performance in the first half satisfied him.

During the intermission, Chang Sheng encouraged everyone to perform in defense and told them to continue playing like this in the second half. Anyway, they are leading now, and they have no reason to take the lead in adjusting. Let Real Madrid hurry!

※※※

Everyone in Valencia is full of hope to win the opponent, while Real Madrid has problems with Bosque.

Before he entered the locker room, he received a call from club president Florentino.

On the phone, the club's president asked him why he didn't play Mendieta.

Del Bosque said there is currently no place for Mendieta in the team.

But Florentino didn't care that much.

He only needs to see Mendieta play. And he firmly believes that Mendieta is the player who can help Real Madrid beat Valencia.

"He is very familiar with Valencia, you should let him play, he can help us beat Valencia!"

The given arm can't twist the thigh. In Spanish football, the will of the club chairman often represents everything. They can interfere with the coach's formation. They can call out who is on and who is not. The head coach is only responsible for leading the team to train and then play games.

This is even more so in a giant like Real Madrid.

Florentino's words. Bosque could not defy.

But how did Mendieta play?

Playing right midfielder? Figo must not be willing.

In fact, when Mendieta came to the team, Figo didn't express any favor for Mendieta.

This is a player who clearly wants to grab his position...

Therefore, Mendieta must not be placed in the position of the right midfielder.

So where else could he go?

front waist? He's not the guy for this. Although he is a free agent in the frontcourt.

Finally, after much deliberation, Bosque thought of Chang Sheng's use of Mendieta in this way once.

It was in Valencia's game against Barcelona because Baraja was injured. Guardiola was unable to play due to contract restrictions. In order to make enough double midfielders, Chang Sheng finally moved Mendieta to the position of the midfielder.

In that game, Mendieta's performance in the midfielder position seemed... quite satisfactory?

In fact, I don't expect Mendieta to make any contribution to the team, as long as it is quite satisfactory.

But if you want Mendieta to play as a midfielder... you have to withdraw a midfielder.

Makelele's defense is stronger than that of Herguera, and he is also responsible for defending Deco.

His task is very heavy, and if he can't take it, he has to sacrifice Elgora.

So during the intermission, Real Madrid completed the adjustment.

Mendieta came on, replacing Herguera.

When Bosque announced the decision. A look of dissatisfaction was seen on Elgora's face.

He knew why Elguera was dissatisfied.

Elguera's performance in the first half was not bad, but he was sacrificed in order to make room for Mendieta.

Bosque sighed inwardly.

A Mendieta, a Ronaldo, all make the dressing room a little uneasy... This is just the beginning of the season. How will you spend the next season?

※※※

When the second half started, Chang Sheng saw that Mendieta had finally played, but it was not the right midfielder. But at the back, he couldn't help but smile directly on his face...

My nail finally worked!

Mendieta hit the midfielder. That means Real Madrid's defense in the middle of the midfield is weaker, which is a good thing for Valencia.

"Mendieta finally appeared!" This was a gimmick hyped up by the media before the game, and now it has finally become a reality. Can everyone not be excited?

But to their disappointment, Mendieta did not show his excellent form in Valencia, because he played in the midfielder.

The second half of the game looked the same as the first half.

Real Madrid intends to test the individual strength of the stars to resolve the battle.

And Valencia is more to deal with Real Madrid's stars as a whole.

After the first ten minutes, the gap between the two sides began to be reflected.

After all, Real Madrid lacks a defender in the midfield. Although Mendieta works hard in the midfielder position, if his task is to defend, no matter how hard he works, his performance will not be much better.

In fact, Mendieta played worse and worse later, which is related to this.

He was asked by the head coach to participate in the defense, and his talent and aura were consumed in constant tackles. I can never get back to the original state.

Now it seems that he has officially embarked on the old road.
