Football’s First Defender

The Copa del Rey has only reached the quarter-finals. Usually, at this time, Real Madrid will not play with all their main force when facing some weak teams in this kind of game.

After all, the team's focus still needs to be on the Champions League and the league.

But because the opponent is Sevilla, among the La Liga teams, Barcelona's hardcore younger brother, so for Real Madrid, for this game, the outside world believes that Real Madrid will still invest a lot.

And as long as Real Madrid continues to remain unbeaten in this game, they can achieve 38 unbeaten records in all competitions. The longest unbeaten record of a La Liga team, Barcelona's unbeaten record of 39 games, is only the last one. Just one game.

For Sevilla, naturally they don't want their big brother, Barcelona's unbeaten record is dead, and it is still broken by a rival team like Real Madrid.

Because the Copa del Rey reached the quarter-finals, the two rounds were played in two consecutive weeks.

So Sevilla will first try to stop Real Madrid's 38th unbeaten league game.

If Sevilla lose at the Bernabeu, and Granada can't stop Real Madrid at the Bernabeu in the weekend's league.

Then the 40th unbeaten league game that Real Madrid is pursuing will be Sevilla's home game, and it is also the best opportunity for Sevilla to stop Real Madrid.

However, for Real Madrid, Zidane still made a large-scale rotation in this game.

For Zidane, no record can compare to his great cause of defending the Champions League this season.

Zidane, as an assistant coach, was deeply touched by Ancelotti's defeat that year.

Such an excellent Real Madrid team, which is unstoppable throughout Europe, has won 22 consecutive victories in Europe, but because of injuries and lack of necessary rotation players who can maintain combat effectiveness, in the second half of the season , collapsed directly, and even lost all four at the end of the season.

This season, in order to become the first team to defend the Champions League after the restructuring of the Champions League, Real Madrid spent a lot of money and assembled two sets of all-star lineups, the main force and the substitute.

For Zidane, although he already has a stable main lineup in his heart, Zidane also knows that in order for the substitute players to be able to perform, they still need enough games to ensure the player's own game state.

Zidane knows that these substitute players under his command are not decorations, they must be the team's immediate combat power, so everyone's game status is guaranteed, and rotation is used to ensure that everyone has a game to play, that is, Real Madrid Things need to be done.

Zidane must continue to use the rotation of players in various positions, so that the players of the entire Real Madrid team can maintain a good enough game state, and they can play a role when they come out.

In this game, the coach of Real Madrid, Zidane, carried out a lot of player rotation, to use the player rotation, to allow more players to experience the game, adjust their own game status, especially to resume the game returning from the holiday state.

Of course, although he will try his best to rotate, because of the importance of the defense, Zidane's rotation is limited.

Both Marcelo and Carvajal are important offensive advancements for the team, so they are naturally the starters.

In order to ensure the team's defense and not be impacted by Sevilla's counterattack, in the position of central defender, Zidane also safely chose Yang Feng and Varane as partners.

Ramos had a rest in this game and did not play.

In the midfield, Casemiro, who has just recovered from a serious injury, continues to play to find the state of the game, while Toni Kroos and Modric ensure the team's formal lineup in the midfield, allowing the team While stabilizing the defense, it can also firmly occupy the initiative in the midfield.

However, after ensuring a large number of main players in the midfield and backcourt, it is natural to rotate in the frontcourt.

In this game, Zidane carried out a large-scale rotation of the offensive combination of the frontcourt.

The Real Madrid offensive trident composed of Morata, Ronaldo, and Asensio replaced the previous BBC combination, so that Real Madrid fans actually have some concerns about the finishing ability of the striker in this game.

However, judging from the progress of the game, there is obviously no need for Real Madrid fans to worry.

As soon as the game started, Real Madrid took advantage of the home court advantage of sitting at the Bernabéu Stadium. During the game, they firmly held the initiative in their own hands and used the cheers of the fans to show their best game state.

When facing Sevilla's main lineup, Real Madrid still firmly holds the advantage of the game, constantly creating threats to Sevilla in the away game.

In the process of this game, for Sevilla, their goal is quite obvious.

Even if they would rather give up the weekend league, they should try their best to play in these two games to pose a threat to Real Madrid.

And try my best to give Real Madrid a game loss, ending Real Madrid's unbeaten record.

In this game, Sevilla is definitely playing with all the main players.

The attitude of the team is quite correct.

However, Real Madrid, who are playing at home, are still in the game, using their outstanding performance to firmly suppress Sevilla.

At the beginning of the game, Real Madrid created offensive opportunities in the frontcourt.

Although on the front line, there is no appearance of the BBC combination.

In terms of the final strength of the front line, Real Madrid may have a lot of shortcomings in this game, but Real Madrid's overall strength is still at the top. After all, even Ronaldo, Morata and Asensio, who replaced the BBC combination, are now The combined worth can easily exceed 100 million. This is the horror of Real Madrid. Even if they don't show their full strength on the field, they are definitely better than their opponent Sevilla in terms of the ability of players in various positions. High.

And Sevilla is already the top team in the second echelon of La Liga.

In just one minute of the game, Real Madrid used their excellent offensive ability to create an offensive opportunity.

Modric, who was pulled to the right, suddenly sent a diagonal pass from the right to find Morata who was pulled to the back point, grabbed the position on the edge of the small penalty area at the back point, leaned on the defensive player next to him, and volleyed directly It's just a pity that although Morata successfully kicked the football and shot a high-quality shot, there were still some problems in controlling the direction of the ball.

The ball finally hit the post and missed the post. Real Madrid got a very threatening offensive opportunity in their first attack. It's just a pity that Morata is still a little young in terms of ability to control the ball. Seize this opportunity to hit the goal in the air.

The excellent offensive ability of Real Madrid players, in the game, the offensive players can send a variety of passes, all kinds of cooperation within the group range of two or three people, so that Real Madrid can always be on the offensive end in the game Keep enough pressure.

For the Sevilla players in the away game, advancing to the next round of the Copa del Rey may still be a trivial matter. For Sevilla, on the one hand, they want to beat Real Madrid to advance to the next round of the Copa del Rey. But they also want to be the team that stops Real Madrid's undefeated record, stepping on Real Madrid to make their own reputation.

So in this game, although Sevilla is fighting at the Bernabéu Stadium, Sevilla still played very aggressively in this game.

They played their own offensive style fully in the game, and played against Real Madrid in the game. The purpose is to quickly score a goal. After taking the lead in the away game, they can change to a defensive approach to try to end Real Madrid Unbeaten record.

In the sixth minute, Sevilla fought back.

Taking advantage of Real Madrid's intensified attack and the defense line is not tight enough, Escudero sent a diagonal pass from the left, Correa received the ball in the penalty area and shook Varane and directly shot a low shot. It's a pity that the rushing Yang Feng stretched his legs to block it.

In the final corner kick tactic, Ganso's corner kick was Ibra in the back position. Without the defensive interference of Yang Feng and Varane, he completed a header, but it was a pity that it also missed.

In the two consecutive offensive opportunities, Sevilla's offensive players did not create enough threatening shots. In this confrontation, of course Real Madrid has the most advantage on the field at home.

Real Madrid has excellent strength, allowing the team to maintain its offensive advantage over Sevilla, and Real Madrid's lineup is actually more flexible. After Austrian and Ronaldo, Real Madrid's ability to fight back on the spot in the frontcourt has been greatly improved.

After all, in the previous games, the defensive task of the BBC team was not so heavy. Although they will also carry out a certain amount of pressing, overall, the pressing force of the BBC team is obviously not as good as the trio on the bench.

In the absence of the main position, the trio who came off the bench in this game all showed very good enthusiasm for the game. They spared no effort to run and press on the field to show their game attitude. Recognize them internally so that they can have more playing time.

This is the very positive effect brought about by the rotation mechanism and the competition mechanism, because the main players cannot guarantee their main position, and the substitute players have the possibility of competition. Therefore, every player on the field will burst out his best in the game. Good potential, show your best game attitude to perform better on the court.

In the 11th minute of the game, Real Madrid launched a very classic frontcourt press on the field.

Sevilla itself can be regarded as a traditional Spanish pass-and-control football style. After all, it has a good relationship with Barcelona, ​​so even if Sevilla does not have an excellent pass-and-control system like Barcelona, ​​its own team's technical ability is not bad.

After successfully completing a defense against Real Madrid, the Sevilla players did not choose to kick the ball with a big foot, but chose to control the ball as much as possible to find better offensive opportunities.

It's just that this time they were under tremendous pressure during the pouring process in the backcourt.

Asensio, Ronaldo and Morata, the three of them pressed forward collectively, forming a huge pressing pressure on the entire Sevilla defense line.

Especially Ronaldo, in the process of rushing forward, played a very good pressing effect.

After robbing one person to force him to pass the ball, Ronaldo immediately turned around and formed a siege with Morata for the new ball holder. The new ball holder who came to force could only choose to quickly pass the ball short, wanting to find the ball holder in front of him. Open teammates.

It's just that this time, although he didn't make a mistake in his pass, the scene he observed while passing the ball has indeed changed.

The teammate who was originally in the open position in front of him was in the middle of the game, and was suddenly robbed by Casemiro to complete a steal.

As a defensive midfielder, Casemiro suddenly went up to grab the opponent's half. A shovel from the back side directly shoveled the ball to the front, and Ronaldo, who was pressing to the opponent before, was just in front of the penalty area. Received this pass.

After Ronaldo received the ball, he dribbled directly horizontally, and he was about to shoot from a long distance. The defensive player quickly stretched his legs to block, trying to block Ronaldo's goal.

However, Ronaldo, who transferred to Real Madrid at a high price, is a person with excellent long-range shooting ability. This excellent long-range shooting ability is not only because of Ronaldo's hard feet, but also because Ronaldo creates opportunities proof of ability.

J Ronaldo made a horizontal step to hit the goal. After attracting the opponent to stretch out his feet to block, J Luo turned the previous hitting action into a fake action. Luo once again crossed a sufficient distance, and after throwing away the defensive player in front of him, he directly rubbed his left foot and hit a curve ball, allowing the ball to spin in from the outside on the left side, rubbing the post and spinning into the goal within.

1:0! Real Madrid took the lead in the game.

Real Madrid took the lead too quickly. After Real Madrid took the lead at the Bernabéu Stadium, Sevilla itself lost the initiative in the game.

Even though Sevilla is still considered a top team in La Liga, facing Real Madrid, it is not so easy to complete a reversal at Real Madrid's home court.

When Sevilla had to choose to attack, it was Real Madrid who used continuous counterattacks during the game to continuously create threats to Sevilla's defense.

In terms of the ability to create threats and offenses on the field, Real Madrid is definitely stronger than Sevilla.

The pace of the game between the two sides is very fast, and they continuously played fast-paced offensive cooperation in the game to make the game fall into an excellent offensive state.

In the 29th minute of the game, Real Madrid once again demonstrated their excellent scoring ability. Toni Kroos took corner kicks from the left and right sides. He took off from the ground, shook his head and hit the goal, just at the highest point of the jump, he met the passing football, and directly headed the ball into Real Madrid.

2:0!

With his own header, Yang Feng once again "reversed" to establish a two-goal lead for Real Madrid in the game.

In the continuous attack, Real Madrid successfully used an excellent counterattack to seal the victory before the end of the first half.

During the quick counterattack, J Rolla went to the right, passed the ball at 45 degrees with his left foot, and slammed into the penalty area. Afterwards, Modric quickly rushed into the penalty area, but he was caught by the defenders around him. In the case of Derich, he was directly pushed down in front of the door.

This time, the referee decisively awarded a penalty kick.

Ronaldo made a penalty kick easily, and Real Madrid also took a 3:0 lead at halftime.

The victory of this game is almost certain that Real Madrid will advance to the quarterfinals of the Copa del Rey.

After almost gaining a big enough advantage in the first round, because there will be a La Liga game two days later, Real Madrid did not go all out in the second half.

It's just about keeping the team's control on the court.
