Ball king grower

On February 3rd, the city derby between Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid kicked off at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium. This was also the 23rd round of La Liga, and it was Lin Yu's first league game after making his vow. If this game

If he loses the game or fails to score a goal, then that oath will become ironclad evidence that he is being ridiculed. No matter how good he is in the future, I am afraid he will not be able to escape the fate of being ridiculed.

So this game must be won and goals must be scored!

In this game, Atletico Madrid still played in the usual way, but they were obviously more focused on defense and their counterattacks were sharper.

It seems that after the defeat in the first half of the season, Simeone has also made some adjustments. He cannot let the team always stand still, otherwise the meaning of his coaching in La Liga will disappear. He and Klopp

They are all here to win the championship, and Real Madrid must not be allowed to always dominate the league.

Real Madrid seemed a little unprepared for Atletico Madrid's counterattack.

The winning streak during this period, coupled with the fact that today is a home game, has made Real Madrid players and fans a little excited. What Villarreal did in the last game still failed to prevent Real Madrid from winning. This

Many people believe that this Real Madrid team is really invincible, and Lin Yu really has no flaws. He feels like he can be easily defeated by anyone he meets.

However, at the beginning of the game, several counterattacks by Atletico Madrid made the fans who watched him feel heartbroken. The counterattacks were too efficient and in place. They were simply aimed at Real Madrid's weaknesses.

of.

If it hadn't been for Santa Cassie's outstanding performance, which saved Diego Costa's two must-goals, Real Madrid would have fallen behind at home at this time.

From elated to uneasy, Real Madrid fans also experienced more than ten minutes of suffering, but they just didn't know whether this suffering would last or end here.

There is nothing too complicated in Atletico Madrid's counterattack. After getting the ball in the backcourt, they directly look for Villa or Diego Costa in front. Then they can counterattack if they can. If they can't, they just treat it as a clearance.

The problem now is that almost every long pass counterattack, the player in front can get the ball.

Whether it is Diego Costa or Villa, they can actually receive the pass from their teammates. The reason is of course that on the one hand, Real Madrid has some problems with loose marking in defense; on the other hand, it is also

Because Atletico Madrid's players pass the ball very well.

For example, Mata, Koke, and Gabi are all players with the ability to pass beautiful long passes, and Diego Costa's physical confrontation ability is strong enough. Therefore, the probability of receiving the ball is relatively high, and although Villa is not physically as good as

Diego Costa is so strong, but he is smart enough and flexible enough, which allows him to always predict the ball's landing point in advance when receiving the ball, so that Real Madrid's defense cannot easily capture his intentions.

.

Today, Real Madrid's central defender partners are Luis and Ramos. Both of them are not bad in ability, but they are both reckless. If they are placed in other games, it may be fine, but in this game, it is a bit troublesome.

, both of them wanted to rush forward, which naturally exposed many loopholes.

Seeing this, Zidane shook his head helplessly. He had no choice. After Varane was injured, Pepe was no longer in good condition, so he could only let the two play together at the center back position. He hoped that

What's more important is that Lin Yu, Cristiano Ronaldo, Royce, and Di Maria in the frontcourt can suppress the opponent's firepower and relieve some pressure on their own defense, so as to avoid conceding goals due to mistakes.

.

But the problem is that Atletico Madrid's counterattack today is really powerful. Even if the firepower is suppressed, the counterattack does not require too many kicks. It just needs to grab the ball and pass it, but it is not easy to suppress it.

In the past, some teams also saw the problems in Real Madrid's defense, so they wanted to score some goals through confrontation and then win.

But in fact, the result of this is not good, because if you fight against your opponent, it means that your defense will become very weak. Facing superstars like Lin Yu and Cristiano Ronaldo, you relax your defense.

, that is seeking death.

Even Klopp's Barcelona does not dare to play against Real Madrid. Although his team plays very actively, it is actually a counterattack tactic, but it spreads the defense from the back line to the entire field.

That's all, the players' high-position interception and active fighting are just to be able to launch a quick counterattack, because the midfield interception, or even the counterattack after the frontcourt interception, will be faster and more threatening.

Simeone also wants to learn from Klopp, but it is not realistic. Klopp's tactics require too much physical strength of the players. This is why Dortmund often had a lot of injured players. In Barcelona, ​​because the bench is thick enough,

Therefore, Klopp has sufficient resources to make substitutions, but Simeone cannot. The thickness of Simeone's Atletico Madrid bench is too poor, and he cannot consume the players' physical strength unscrupulously. In that case, the game may not be won, and it may also lead to

A total collapse of the three lines.

Therefore, Simeone's tactics are still the same, maintaining positions in the backcourt and relying on each other to defend, so that even if Lin Yu can shoot, he will hit the players, and then rely on the defenders to actively steal and create opportunities for counterattacks.

As for the counterattack efficiency, Simeone does not think that his team's counterattack efficiency will be worse than Klopp's team. It should be said that each has its own characteristics.

Against a team like Real Madrid, you can't just defend, nor can you just attack. Only in this way can you win by taking both offense and defense into account.

…

Atletico Madrid used this simple and crude counterattack tactic to put a lot of pressure on Real Madrid's defense. Luis and Ramos, who had been frequently penetrating forward, also became honest.

But even so, relying on the personal abilities of Diego Costa and Villa, coupled with the beautiful passes of Mata and Koke, in the opening period, Atletico Madrid actually overwhelmed Real Madrid in the number of shots.

Madrid.

On the sidelines, Simeone was wearing a suit and leather shoes, with his hands in his pockets, as if he was full of confidence.

With this tactic of his, you don't need to worry about the back line, because the core of this tactic is defense. You must first make yourself invincible, and then wait for an opportunity to kill your opponent.

If the ball is still conceded like this, it is not a tactical problem. It is not a problem that he can solve, but the opponent's offensive line is too strong.

Real Madrid currently has the advantage, but in terms of shooting data, his team has the advantage, so Simeone does not need to make any changes. What he has to do now is to wait quietly. Look at who is in his team.

Who will become the hero, who will be the one to break the deadlock.

What Simeone wants to see now is a goal. Whether it is Diego Costa or Villa, as long as there is a goal, he can play defensive counterattacks with peace of mind.

But luck doesn't seem to be on their side today.

Diego Costa got two excellent shooting opportunities, and it was almost a one-shot. But he couldn't score the ball into the goal guarded by Casillas.

Seeing his forward wasting opportunities, Simeone also held his head in frustration, but soon he shouted to Diego Costa on the sidelines: "Don't panic, there are still opportunities, just seize one opportunity.

Already."

Simeone is Simeone after all, and he knows very well that he must not create pressure on the players now. Instead, he must help the players relieve pressure.

Diego Costa failed to score in two excellent opportunities. He must be under a lot of pressure. If he blames the players at this time, he may cause the opponent to collapse. After all, not every forward in the world is called

Lin Yu, if it's Lin Yu, the more you sarcastically mock him, the stronger he becomes.

In fact, the pressure on Diego Costa is indeed great, and the team's counterattack opportunities become more and more precious each time. However, he wasted two excellent scoring opportunities in a row. This is unjustifiable, so after shooting

, he just held his head and felt very annoyed.

At this time, he heard Simeone's shout, and his heart suddenly calmed down again. Yes, there is still a chance, and he must not waste it next time, for sure!

As the hottest center in today's football, Diego Costa is a player that has been competed for by the Brazilian national team and the Spanish national team. There is no doubt about his ability.

There is a story about Diego Costa who wanted to join the Brazilian national team, but the head coach didn't want him, so he held a grudge. After receiving an invitation from Vicente del Bosque, he resolutely joined Spain.

national team.

Regardless of whether his approach is advisable or not, one thing is possible, this guy is also a player with a very personal personality. He has complaints, revenge, and kindness.

Undoubtedly, Simeone was very kind to him. Without Simeone, he would not have achieved what he has today, so he must repay the kindness.

Although Diego Costa cannot compare with Lin Yu and Messi in terms of goals this season, he has scored 23 goals in the 22nd round so far, averaging 10 goals per game.

What a goal. If such a striker is placed in any league except La Liga, he may become the number one striker.

Therefore, although they failed to seize two excellent opportunities, Atletico Madrid fans still have full confidence in Diego Costa and believe that he can definitely adjust and score goals.

But both Atletico Madrid fans and Atletico Madrid coach Simeone have ignored the existence of one person for a period of time.

Lin Yu is on the court today. Don't pretend that he doesn't exist. If you rely on this kind of self-deception to paralyze yourself, you will definitely get retribution in the end.

Those who fail to seize the opportunity will definitely suffer retribution. This is what Lin Yu has always warned himself. Therefore, in every game, if there is an excellent opportunity to score, he will definitely seize it, because once

If you waste it, you will probably be punished.

…

Atletico Madrid did play very well in the first ten minutes, and they were calm in the rest of the game, but their style of play is actually not new, so after experiencing the initial panic, Real Madrid players gradually

Stabilized.

Especially the four attackers in the frontcourt - Lin Yu, Cristiano Ronaldo, Royce and Di Maria. As long as they are on the court, they are a huge threat to the opponent.

Zidane has no intention of changing tactics. If Real Madrid wants to win, it cannot follow the opponent's rhythm, it must follow its own rhythm.

Don't give up offensive tactics and switch to defense just because the opponent's counterattack threatens you. That way you will only be led by the opponent. Not only will you not be able to pose a threat to the opponent, but it will make you feel very uncomfortable and you will not be able to play as you should.

level.

So even at the most dangerous time, even if the assistant coach had repeatedly reminded Zidane whether he should change his tactics slightly, Zidane did not make any move. He just watched the game silently. He believed in his players.

The current situation can be handled well, and the only thing he needs to do now is not to cause trouble. This is enough.

As a head coach, you can't always yell from the sidelines. That will make people think that you don't trust the players, especially those who are more famous and capable. You can't stand this situation. Zidane is very smart.

, he chose to have complete trust in the players.
