From coaching Real Madrid

Seeing Pepe beat Suarez to push the ball back, Rakitic rushed over immediately and controlled the second point.

As soon as the ball landed, the Croatian midfielder stopped the ball and turned around. As a result, Khedira made a sliding tackle from the side and shoveled the ball back to Real Madrid's defense.

Suarez immediately rushed to grab the ball, but Pepe also made a tackle and shoveled the ball to the side.

Carvalho followed up with a big kick and kicked the ball to the right side of the frontcourt.

Di Maria pulled to the right to receive the ball. As soon as he stopped, he saw Felipe rushing forward. This made the Argentine winger instinctively slam the ball back, but at this moment, Gareth Bale didn't know what

At that moment, he suddenly returned to his own half and appeared behind him.

The Welshman's physical fitness was so good that he just moved closer to Di Maria's body. As soon as he made contact, Di Maria felt as if he was about to be knocked away. His body lost balance and the ball was kicked.

Les Bell walked away from the back.

Di Maria was also tenacious and counterattacked on the spot immediately, but after being blocked by Gareth Bale with his butt, the Argentine winger had no choice but to do anything.

Soon, Gareth Bale passed the kick to Felipe on the wing and rushed forward quickly.

Felipe understood the idea and knocked back immediately, passing the ball in front of Gareth Bale.

The Welshman let go of his speed, and as if he was flying, he caught up with him at an extremely fast speed, got ahead of Khedira, and strode the ball forward, straight past Khedira's goal.

defense zone.

Gareth Bale's speed is getting faster and faster, especially near the edge of Real Madrid's penalty area. His speed does not slow down at all. Like a bolt of lightning, he quickly rushes into the gap between Ramos and Pepe.

Keep your head down and keep sprinting forward.

That speed is really too fast!

It was so fast that Ramos and Pepe didn't even have time to close the door before they were rushed over by Gareth Bale.

After breaking through the defense of Ramos and Pepe, Gareth Bale glanced in front of the goal and found that Suarez was too late, but Robben followed behind.

So, without thinking, he passed the ball low with his left foot.

The ball was extremely fast, passed behind Real Madrid's defense, and landed on the right side of the goal.

Adan was obviously stunned and turned around to pounce to the right, but he immediately saw Manchester City winger Robben rushing over quickly, getting ahead of everyone, and met Gareth Bale's pass with his left foot.

Sweep the ball.

The ball was easily swept into the lower right corner of Real Madrid's goal by Robben's left foot.

"goalllllllllllllllllll!!!!!!!"

"Robben!!"

"In the eighth minute, Manchester City took the lead in breaking Real Madrid's goal with a goal from Arjen Robben!"

"Gareth Bale's long-distance run was very exciting. We saw that Real Madrid's entire left rib was breached."

"One to zero!"

The cheers of Manchester City fans could be heard throughout the Etihad Stadium, and everyone was shouting Robben's name.

And Gareth Bale.

The long-distance run just now was so exciting, so fast and so shocking!

On the football field, speed has always been the most powerful weapon to incite the enthusiasm of fans.

Just like Owen back then, like Robben in the past, and Gareth Bale now.

…

When Manchester City's players rushed out of the stadium to celebrate, Gao Shen stood on the sidelines with an indifferent expression.

He had been mentally prepared for a long time, and scoring this goal didn't really surprise him much.

Of course, he was still very happy.

After turning around and catching up with Carlo and others in front of the coaching bench, Gao Shen walked back to the side of the court.

By this time, the players had finished celebrating and were heading back.

"Continue to attack, disrupt their rhythm, and continue to attack!"

Gao Shen shouted loudly to the players, telling them to keep pressing, keep attacking, and don't show mercy.

Real Madrid now lacks control in the midfield. Once they are pressed, they can easily fall into chaos.

Especially now that the captain is Ramos.

Everyone knows that Ramos is a chuunibyou, and he is prone to making mistakes when he gets involved.

And Pepe, this guy is still in monk form.

As for Carvalho, he was indeed very strong back then, but he is now thirty-three years old.

…

Following Gao Shen's order, Manchester City continued to launch a fierce attack on Real Madrid.

Two minutes after the goal, Felipe suddenly broke into the penalty area from the left rib and fired a fierce shot, which shocked everyone into a cold sweat.

Just a minute later, Gareth Bale made a sudden cross from the left rib, and Suarez followed up and hit him directly.

But the angle of this shot was too right, and it was directly saved by Adan.

The ball was still on the left side of the penalty area. Gareth Bale followed up and pushed the ball directly, trying to push it into the far corner. As a result, Xabi Alonso, who returned to defense in time, blocked it with his foot and slid out.

This almost resulted in an own goal.

Rakitic took the corner kick and Kompany headed the goal slightly higher.

In less than five minutes, Manchester City almost formed a frenzied offensive against Real Madrid, overwhelming Real Madrid.

The arrogant Real Madrid was beaten without any power to fight back and could only barely parry.

But Manchester City's offensive came one after another, one wave after another. This put huge pressure on Real Madrid and everyone at the Etihad Stadium. At the same time, the Manchester City fans in the Etihad Stadium were hooked and passionate.

.

…

In the stands, Zidane and technical director Valdano, who led the team to Manchester, were frightened by Manchester City's attacks one after another.

They all have to admire Gao Shen's training of Manchester City, especially the strength of this group of Manchester City players, as well as the team's overall technical and tactical level, which is definitely the best in European football, not even losing to Barcelona.

This is basically a fact recognized by the outside world.

Looking at European football today, only Barcelona and Manchester City are neck and neck.

But Guardiola relied on the unparalleled Messi, as well as Xavi, Iniesta and Busquets, the best youth training team in Barcelona's history, while Gao Shen relied on his own eyes to dig out a number of youth training teams.

Not to mention the young star who makes a lot of concessions.

Today, the biggest difference between Manchester City and the top giants is business management.

But the rich teams are not short of money, they don't care.

"Have you seen the Leeds United game in the English Championship?" Zidane asked suddenly.

Valdano shook his head, but the invitation that Gao Shen's wife extended to him that day in Monaco came to mind.

That is a very smart and beautiful girl!

"Sarri used a more radical style of play than Gao Shen at Manchester City. The two full-backs were extremely aggressive, the two wings were extremely active, and coupled with a high center forward, this made them very successful in England.

The Champions League is invincible."

When Zidane said this, he smiled and said: "This should be Gao Shen's further exploration based on Manchester City."

Valdano also realized this, in fact many people did.

But no one knows how far Gao Shen will go.

Because Manchester City's current player configuration limits Gao Shen.

For example, left back Felipe, compared to Marcelo, is very stable defensively, but not sharp enough offensively.

Leighton Bynes is good, but it is difficult for him to challenge Felipe's main position.

The same goes for Lichtsteiner and Zabaleta on the right.

At Leeds United, Kurzawa and Klein were almost at the front, and they were extremely fast.

Zidane felt that that was the tactic Gao Shen wanted.

As for Manchester City, it's really not that Gao Shen doesn't want to play, he has actually used it, but the personnel configuration is there.

Felipe, Lichtsteiner, Zabaleta and others have all made great contributions to Manchester City. It is impossible for Gao Shen to sell them or buy them just for his own tactical exploration.

It's unrealistic to replace them.

If it was really that high, Gao Shen's locker room would definitely be a mess.

Many times, the head coach also has to look at what others are doing and cannot act willfully.

"You mean..." Valdano vaguely guessed that Zidane had something else to say.

"I still remember that in Naples, he said that Real Madrid's biggest problem was Kaká and the attacking midfielder."

Three years have passed and the results are clear.

Even if we put aside the player lineup and only talk about the team's skills and tactics, Manchester City is more advanced and more controlling than Real Madrid.

"Back then, we should have listened to him." Valdano sighed and said regretfully.

Zidane nodded deeply.

If he had listened to what he said back then, he would not have come to Manchester City. Then the team that is sweeping European football now is Real Madrid.

"It's still too late to change it now!" Zidane looked deeply at Valdano.

…

After conceding a goal first and being suppressed by Manchester City in a wave of attacks, Real Madrid tried to counterattack, but with little success.

Manchester City firmly controlled the midfield, especially when passing the ball. It was almost difficult for Real Madrid's midfield to pose a threat to Manchester City.

In tonight's game, from Cristiano Ronaldo to Adebayor to Di Maria, everyone worked very hard to grab the ball, but they were still almost unable to do so. Manchester City still firmly controlled the ball.

They all have a strong sense of crisis and know how important this season's Champions League is to Real Madrid.

But in the end, they still failed to compete with Manchester City in terms of ball possession and rhythm.

Real Madrid fell into a passive position.

Manchester City began to control the situation steadily and kept looking for opportunities.

In fact, Manchester City also has some problems tonight.

Rakitic and Yaya Toure can bring strong pressure and pressure in the midfield and frontcourt to the team, but their ability in the final pass is obviously not as good as David Silva.

When the Spanish midfielder is there, his creativity with the ball and the final pass, especially his insight into the gaps in the opponent's defense, are something neither of these two midfielders possess.

But David Silva started last weekend's league game and is now on the bench.

After leading by one goal, Gao Shen was not in a hurry to put David Silva on the court.

Even if nothing unexpected happens to the team, he will not let the Spanish midfielder play, but will let him rest.

Yaya Toure also created a very threatening offense.

He sent a pass in his most threatening area, which was at the edge of the penalty area. Suarez leaned on Carvalho with his body and turned around to hit the goal.

As a result, it hit the outside of the post and bounced off the bottom line.

Manchester City's luck is still a bit bad tonight.
