Football’s First Defender

After losing to Sevilla, for Real Madrid, the unbeaten record since the new season was also ended by Sevilla.

Neither Atletico Madrid nor Barcelona had let Real Madrid taste the taste of defeat before, and Sevilla, with three consecutive games, finally in the third game, borrowing the momentum at home, to end Real Madrid's unbeaten games.

As for the Real Madrid team, which lost in the away game, it was obvious that they did not recover immediately from the loss in this game.

Although after Real Madrid lost to Sevilla, Zidane immediately organized the players to conduct a tactical review, but then in the Copa del Rey in the middle of the week, Real Madrid faced another direct descendant of Barcelona. At the time of Celta, he suffered another heavy blow after being poisoned.

Real Madrid can't afford defeat against Kashima Antlers

,

The good thing is that for Real Madrid, although they are behind in the game, the game time is still very sufficient. The 40 minutes of game time are enough for Real Madrid to show their offensive strength and create a big enough threat to Kashima Antlers.

On the sidelines, Zidane also directed the team to launch a more intense and oppressive attack in a timely manner. He must see the team quickly equalize the score and at least allow the team to play overtime room for competition, rather than always being behind

.

Zidane, as a footballer who has spent time in wealthy teams both as a player and as a coach, knows the psychology of wealthy players best.

Sometimes, this situation of being led by a weak team will have worse and worse effects as the game goes on.

If the score cannot be equalized in a short time, the danger will become greater and greater for Real Madrid's subsequent games.

Real Madrid's offense began to focus on completing crosses on the two sides and finding the receiving point in the middle.

Sometimes, although European players or European clubs have advanced tactical concepts and excellent offensive capabilities, when facing Asian teams known for their technical ability, flexibility, and running, they encounter critical moments. When facing Asian teams, when they were unable to bring out their flexibility and tactical ability, the rescue team decisively turned to give full play to their physical advantages.

In fact, it is also a clear tactical idea.

In terms of height, weight and confrontation ability, players in almost every position of Real Madrid have an advantage over Japanese players. This is the difference in the players' personal strength and the difference in the players' personal confrontation ability.

.

And Real Madrid began to give full play to this advantage, constantly putting pressure on the opponent in front of the goal

Of course, this seemingly reckless use of the body is indeed an effective pressure on Kashima Antlers.

However, a rough style of play does not mean that Real Madrid players will not perform fine work.

At the right time, this kind of fine coordination interspersed with rough play may give the Kashima Antlers a fatal blow

.

In the 57th minute of the game, Real Madrid's attack in the frontcourt achieved results. Seven minutes after being scored by the opponent, Real Madrid played a very subtle offensive coordination in the game.

Lucas Vazquez and Carvajal overlap on the right side at the same time.

Lucas Vazquez attacked on the right with the ball, and Carvajal made a quick move to the bottom line on the right, attracting the attention of Kashima Antlers defenders, but Vazquez with the ball did not send a pass The ball is looking for Carvajal, but he cuts diagonally inward, and dribbles the ball quickly into the direction of the opponent's penalty area.

When Vazquez made a breakthrough, he encountered the defense of two Kashima Antlers players. When the two defenders in front were about to double-team the defense, Vazquez quickly sent a through pass and directly found Pull out Benzema at the top of the arc in the penalty area.

Benzema's retreat and response this time showed the excellent tacit understanding with Vazquez.

At the moment of stopping the ball, there is only one defensive player around Benzema.

The other Kashima Antlers players are quickly retreating to form a siege for Benzema

.

However, Benzema's handling of this ball was quite subtle. Before the opponent's defensive pressure came up, Benzema did not stick the ball too much. After receiving the pass from Vazquez, Benzema directly completed the kick and sent The ball sent a short-range through ball into the penalty area, which happened to be passed to the side where the Kashima Antlers defender appeared open.

facing

Vazquez, and later robbed Benzema, and the two instant defensive pressures were all drawn from the penalty area. Naturally, there is room for offense in the penalty area.

And this space was also cleverly grasped by Vazquez and Benzema.

Vazquez added his speed, directly got rid of the two defensive players of Kashima Antlers, accelerated to get rid of the two defensive players of Kashima Antlers without the ball, and rushed directly to the open space in the penalty area.

When the Kashima Antlers players found this space and wanted to come over to defend, it was indeed too late. Vazquez showed his extremely fast speed, controlling the ball in the penalty area before everyone else, and directly facing the opponent against the goalkeeper.

The Kashima Antlers defenders who followed Vazquez were very unwilling. Facing Vazquez's catch during the game, they could only choose to tackle from the side and rear, hoping to intercept the ball.

But Vazquez's speed was too fast. The defensive player of Kashima Antlers did not touch the football at Vazquez's feet, but tripped Vazquez directly

within the restricted area.

The referee directly stopped the game and pointed to the penalty spot with both hands, giving Real Madrid a penalty

.

There was a huge problem in the defense on Shuto Yamamoto's side. First, he lost Vazquez, allowing Vazquez to display his speed and use the speed to complete the penetration. The ball hits.

Under such circumstances, Vazquez's being brought down certainly gave Real Madrid an excellent penalty kick.

And standing in front of the penalty spot is of course Real Madrid's offensive core Ronaldo.

Ronaldo did his part to take this penalty kick.

Facing the disturbing actions made by the opponent's goalkeeper, Ronaldo did not receive too much interference.

Direct and easy approach to the goal.

A low shot directly and quickly hit the lower left corner of the goal.

The Kashima Antlers goalkeeper didn't even have time to react, the ball had already entered the goal.

2:2 tie!

Ronaldo took advantage of the penalty kick created by Vazquez during the game to equalize the score for Real Madrid.

Ronaldo's goal is quite critical for Real Madrid. With the game going so far, Ronaldo's goal finally allowed Real Madrid to equalize the score.

You know, the previous situation where Real Madrid fell behind 1-2 was too dangerous. If they were defeated by a team from Asia in the final of the Club World Cup within 90 minutes, then Real Madrid will definitely be written in the world. The shame of the Club Cup history.

For Real Madrid, the previous siege has not been effective.

And as the game time passed, of course, it became more and more dangerous.

Fortunately, Real Madrid finally tied the score relying on Ronaldo's goal, which also made the Real Madrid players relax.

After tying the score, for the Real Madrid players, there is indeed no sense of urgency before.

The team now has enough spare power to patiently create offensive opportunities on the court and cause trouble for Kashima Antlers

.

The game was close to 60 minutes, and the physical fitness of the Kashima Antlers players actually had certain problems.

On the one hand, the effective playing time of Asian players in Asian teams within 90 minutes of a game cannot compete with European football.

The physical fitness of Asian players has always been a big problem in world football.

Even Japan and South Korea, teams that claim to have tenacious mental strength, are actually unavoidable when facing European teams, because of their racial weakness and lack of physical fitness.

This deficiency itself will cause Asian players to experience various physical exhaustion at the end of the game, which will affect the state of the game.

The tactics of Kashima Antlers in this game is to focus on the early and mid-term of the game, which consumes a lot of physical energy of the players in the early and mid-term, which is naturally even more detrimental to the performance of the players.

After 60 minutes, the players of Kashima Antlers were indeed completely on the defensive when the two teams were tied, and they were unable to play the very effective counterattack efficiency in the first half and the front end of the second half.

For the Kashima Antlers team, at the end of the game, although it is said that they have not taken the lead now, but with a score of 2:2, if the game can be dragged into overtime or even a penalty shootout, for Kashima For the antlers, this is already a huge victory,

Therefore, Kashima Antlers continues to maintain its tight defense, not giving opponents too much offensive space, and not giving them opportunities to attack

.

Kashima Antlers expects to use their iron barrel formation to pose a defensive threat to Real Madrid in the last 30 minutes, and to use their solid defense to hinder Real Madrid's offense

However, Real Madrid's offense has always been played in the game. Efficient way of attacking.

In the 61st minute of the game, Ronaldo hit the goal with his right foot from the middle during the chaos in the penalty area, but it was a pity that the ball was saved by the goalkeeper.

In the subsequent corner kick tactics, in the front corner kick battle, Ramos received Yang Feng's header from the front point and then shot with his left foot, but it was a pity that he hit the ball high.

Two minutes later, after Marcelo cut in from outside the penalty area to create a chance to hit the goal, he hit the goal with his right foot and threatened the goalkeeper again, but this time the goal kick flew out against the post Bottom line, there was no shot on goal.

In the 70th minute of the game, Ronaldo once again used his running in the frontcourt. Received a through ball from Vazquez on the right.

Real Madrid is still constantly creating offensive threats in the frontcourt, hoping to score goals at the last moment.

Of course, for Real Madrid, although their own physical fitness has an absolute advantage in comparison with Kashima Antlers players, it has also begun to affect their own state in the game.

Zidane sent Isco to replace Vazquez, who has been very active on both offense and defense, to further strengthen the team's creativity and vitality in the midfield.

As for Real Madrid's offense, with Isco as the team's breakthrough player, he can further increase the offensive power of the center while ensuring the pressure on the two sides, and to give Kashima Antlers. Azimuth offensive suppression.

The continuous offensive suppression also forced the defensive players of Kashima Antlers to do everything possible to complete the defense and use their bodies to block the continuous attacks of Real Madrid players.

The stamina of Kashima Antlers' defensive players allowed Yang Feng to directly complete an excellent header this time.

The goalkeeper's flying save did not stop Yang Feng's goal.
