Football’s First Defender

In the last round of the Champions League, after a home draw with visiting Dortmund, Real Madrid also got their wish and advanced to the Champions League knockout round as the first in the group.

For Real Madrid, after winning the Champions League, they can also focus on the upcoming Club World Cup.

As last season's Champions League champion, the Club World Cup game also increased the burden on Real Madrid players in disguise.

You must know that since the start of the new season, Real Madrid has spent almost every week with double matches in one week. Throughout the first half of the season, various games are a huge test for the physical fitness of Real Madrid players.

Moreover, Real Madrid itself has already suffered many injuries, which has a great impact on the strength of the team.

Fortunately, the Real Madrid team's lineup is thick enough. Even if there are many wounded, the replacement of suitable players also enables the team to have an excellent guarantee of strength.

The free kick scored directly this time shows the role of Ronaldo in this tough battle.

After taking the lead, Real Madrid became more and more courageous in the game, showing their super strong offensive ability

.

In the 33rd minute of the game, Yang Feng sent a long pass after completing the defensive interception in the backcourt, which directly found the deep position of Atletico Madrid's half-court defense. Isco turned forward and received Yang Feng's pass. Created a single-handed opportunity.

It's just that before Isco finished hitting the goal, the linesman had already raised the flag to indicate that the ball was offside.

Isco was a little annoyed, and Yang Feng in the distance was also protesting to the referee.

At least Yang Feng, who sent the pass, thought that his pass speed was fast enough, and Isco might not even have started it at that time.

Looking at the ball from the slow motion of the live broadcast, Yang Feng actually chose the timing of the ball quite accurately, and Isco's anti-offside position did not appear to be offside during the process.

But the assistant referee's obvious misjudgment this time wasted an excellent counterattack opportunity for Real Madrid.

In the case that Real Madrid continued to create threats against extremes, Atletico Madrid did not launch too many reckless attacks at the end of the first half. The two sides fell into a deadlock in the game, and Real Madrid also took a 1:0. The lead ended the first half

.

During the half-time break, for Real Madrid, coach Zidane strictly required the team to maintain concentration, prepare for the counterattack of Atletico Madrid in the second half on the defensive end, and then use their own defensive counterattack Come and beat Atletico Madrid.

It is best to score a goal before Atletico Madrid and achieve a 2:0 lead. For Real Madrid, the victory may be in the bag.

For Atletico Madrid, of course, it is necessary to focus on attacking in the home game, but Simeone's style of course will not be the kind of offensive method that does not care.

During the intermission, Simeone focused on certain requirements for the team's defense. It is not to say that the defense of the iron barrel should continue, but that Simeone changed his previous defensive method of tightening the backcourt and chose to let the team More pressure, to use the frontcourt to create opportunities, to put more pressure on Real Madrid's ball holders and passers, to force Real Madrid to make long passes, to make mistakes, so that Atletico Madrid can get a certain amount of frontcourt offensive opportunity.

Atletico Madrid's frontcourt press did create a chance for themselves at the beginning of the second half.

At the beginning of the second half, Atletico Madrid suddenly used themselves to grab an excellent frontcourt counterattack, forcing the Real Madrid players to make mistakes in the pass.

After Carrasco completed the interception in the midfield area, he took the ball forward and broke through. Taking advantage of Real Madrid's unstable defense line, he directly completed a kick at the top of the arc in the penalty area.

Carrasco's shot aimed at the upper right corner of the goal. This kind of very angled shot is a huge threat to Navas, who is undersized.

It's just that although Carrasco's kick shot is very fast this time, in terms of angle control, in order to pursue the speed of the ball, there is a certain deviation. shot on goal

.

However, for Atletico Madrid, after such a frontcourt press in the game created this offensive opportunity, it also made Real Madrid more vigilant.

When facing Atletico Madrid's frontcourt pressing, Real Madrid would rather choose to clear the ball with a big foot, and try not to give the opponent a chance to attack directly after counterattacking in the midfield

.

Atletico Madrid's offense has been going on. At the beginning of the second half, Atletico Madrid continued to play its home court advantage and launched its own attack with all its strength. He just wanted to take advantage of Real Madrid's unstable foothold and complete a better offense in the game play.

Atletico Madrid's offense still maintained a certain degree of oppression in the second half. In the 53rd minute of the game, Carrasco's breakthrough on the left attracted Real Madrid's defense and knocked back to Cork, who followed up in the middle.

The latter opted for a brilliant through ball without stopping the ball and tucked it into the penalty area. Griezmann suddenly moved to the left, just in time to respond to Koke's pass, and his left foot wanted to complete a kick. .

However, Griezmann's running position is excellent, but Real Madrid central defender Yang Feng's defensive judgment is also very accurate.

Yang Feng made a wonderful defensive prediction, using a sliding shovel to directly block Griezmann's shot.

The ball was blocked by Yang Feng out of the penalty area.

Two minutes later, Atletico Madrid's attack made a comeback. This time Griezmann made a successful steal in the frontcourt. Modric then dribbled the ball forward at the top of the penalty area. Facing Yang Feng's supplementary defense, Griezmann However, Ziman did not choose to confront Yang Feng head-on. Instead, he directly chose a long-range shot at the top of the penalty area before Yang Feng's defense was in place. It was a pity that the shot slipped out and did not hit the goal.

.

Atletico Madrid's continuous outstanding performance on the offensive end allowed the team to put a certain amount of pressure on Real Madrid in the game.

However, as Real Madrid's formation shrinks more and more attention is paid to the team's defense during the game, Atletico Madrid is under increasing defensive pressure.

As far as Atletico Madrid is concerned, they do not have the super strong offensive ability of Real Madrid in the offensive position, so they can only wait patiently for the opportunity.

The two sides played a little flat in the subsequent games, and both were afraid of the opponent's counterattack, and did not dare to give full play to their offensive capabilities.

In the 60th minute of the game, Simeone on the sidelines saw Atletico Madrid's offense. After a few tricks in the opening game, it didn't have much effect. He could only make substitutions and adjustments, hoping to replace more offensive players to ensure the team's vitality. Attacking can break Real Madrid's defense.

The veteran Torres and the team's captain midfielder Gabi were replaced by Simeone, replaced by striker Gameiro and Coria, who has a strong offensive ability in the midfield.

Simeone decided to use a more aggressive offensive lineup in the last half hour of the game to create opportunities for the team to attack.

It’s just that Simeone sent stronger offensive players in the game, which indeed enhanced the team’s offensive ability, but it also had to bear certain risks, that is, the team lost Gabi, a defensive midfielder. Under the circumstances, can Real Madrid's counterattack be blocked, or whether Atletico Madrid's offense is the first to score the goal, or Real Madrid's counterattack completely seals the victory.

The boring game and the score of 1:0 made the fans of both sides very nervous.

As far as Real Madrid fans are concerned, although their side has taken the lead now, this is Atletico Madrid's home court after all, and it is at the Calderon Stadium. Real Madrid does not want to be overthrown by a rival in the same city like Atletico Madrid at the last moment.

Therefore, Real Madrid's players are also nervous, and they want to score quickly to seal the victory.

As for Atletico Madrid, who are playing at home, they may have a chance to equalize the score and even reverse it at home when they are one goal behind in the game.

Atletico Madrid also don't want to end the history of this stadium by losing when they face their rivals in the same city at what may be the last Calderon Stadium.

Atletico Madrid still wants to decently end their grievances with Real Madrid over the years at the Calderon Stadium.

Both teams are under very strong offensive pressure, but this makes the players on both sides more angry.

The game attitude of the players of the two teams began to become a little anxious. In the 65th minute of the game, there was a big physical contact between the players of the two teams in the penalty area.

In the process of Real Madrid's counterattack, Ronaldo felt a push by the opponent during the jumping and fighting for the top, but the referee did not indicate the ball.

After this attack, Ronaldo obviously had a verbal conflict with Savage, who was defending him. The two sides even had a conflicting movement on their arms. A yellow card can be regarded as calming down the players of both teams

.

These small frictions in this kind of strong duel are normal, and it can also be seen that the players of the two teams are eager for victory in the game.

The conflict with Atletico Madrid players made Ronaldo more active on the field, and he wanted to use his better performance to embarrass his opponents.

For Ronaldo, the best way to prove himself in the game is to score goals, to hit opponents with goals, and to show his strength

.

In private, Yang Feng and Ronaldo have a very harmonious relationship in their recent exchanges. Seeing Ronaldo actively running without the ball in the frontcourt, the entire Real Madrid midfielder and backcourt players are Ready for the opportunity to pass the ball to Ronaldo

.

You must know that today's Ronaldo is actually more of a terminator on the field. It is rare to see Ronaldo so actively performing various interspersed runs in the frontcourt. It can also be seen that Ronaldo has a very strong goal expectation.

And Yang Feng became the best helper beside Ronaldo. In the 69th minute of the game, after Yang Feng successfully intercepted the pass from the Atletico Madrid players in the backcourt, he directly sent a long pass to the depths of the Atletico Madrid defense.

.

At the moment Yang Feng steals the ball, Ronaldo rushed forward quickly, pressing the opponent's defense line, waiting for his teammates to pass the ball in the backcourt. Yang Feng passed the ball very fast, and did not give Ronaldo too much waiting time. Can give full play to his speed and rush straight to the depths of Atletico Madrid's defense.

The advance of Atletico Madrid's defense line is actually not too large, but normally in the field of modern football, there must be some gaps in the backcourt.

In the case of increased offensive pressure, some defensive gaps in the backcourt are bound to exist.

It's just that this space, this space between the central defender and the goalkeeper, was precisely found by Yang Feng's long pass.

Yang Feng's long pass went directly to the opponent's big penalty area. After the ball landed, it bounced back to the penalty area. It happened to be an empty area where neither the central defender nor the goalkeeper could rush to the defensive position in a short time and control the ball.

Ronaldo is advancing quickly, taking advantage of his speed and physical confrontation. In the one-on-one confrontation with Savage, Ronaldo has a clear upper hand.

Ronaldo even blocked his body in front of Savage to interfere with Savage's forward speed after grabbing the advantage of body position. With Ronaldo's powerful physical confrontation ability, he was already in the range in front of him. He had no chance to steal the ball at all, and Savage chose to stretch his legs to take advantage of his height and length, and stretched his legs first to try to hit the ball.

.

It's just that Savage's legs, which were stretched out as far as possible from the side and rear, didn't touch the football.

Yang Feng's pass bounced back very quickly after landing, and then Savage wanted to make a clearance, but the kick was empty.

Savage's raised leg tripped Ronaldo in the penalty area.

"Penalty kick! The referee directly awarded a penalty kick!"

"Savic tried to clear the siege, but ended up in the penalty area and tripped Ronaldo!"

This ball is indeed a penalty. Savage's raised leg directly affected Ronaldo's running route and tripped Ronaldo.

Ronaldo, who was standing in front of the penalty spot, faced the most popular goalkeeper in La Liga, Oblak, without the slightest panic. He took an excellent aim at the penalty kick in the lower left corner and scored the ball easily.

Cristiano Ronaldo's penalty tricked Oblak's defense and expanded the score for Real Madrid in the 70th minute of the game.

With a 2:0 lead, for Real Madrid, they are only one step away from victory at the Calderón Stadium.

And Ronaldo, who scored twice, naturally wants to go further. Ronaldo is only one goal away from his hat-trick against Atletico Madrid.

In the game, it was Bell in "Two Hundred Million Flying Together" who once again delivered shells to Ronaldo.

Atletico Madrid, who are playing at home, began to press in an all-round way in the final stage of the game to seek offensive points, but their offensive pressure gave Real Madrid the best chance to counterattack.

In the 77th minute of the game, in a quick counterattack from the left, Bell forcibly made a breakthrough from the left, giving full play to his advantage in speed, as if entering no one's land.

When Bell is really on the left, with a left foot, although there may be no shooting threat, his strong attack can definitely create passing opportunities.

In the case of one against two, Bell forced through the defense of the two and completed a pass.

Moreover, Bell's pass is very fast and accurate.

Godin, who had just returned from the middle, stretched his legs and failed to intercept Bell's fast pass, and Ronaldo, who was in the back position, easily pushed and scored without a defender.

"hat trick!"

"C Ronaldo! He scored a hat-trick against Atletico Madrid, which is known for its defense!"

"This is still at the Calderon Stadium, at the home court of Atletico Madrid, and Ronaldo is a god!"

3 to 0!

Completing a hat-trick away from home,

Cristiano Ronaldo completed a hat-trick alone, helping Real Madrid take a 3-0 lead in the away game.
