Fast updates and no ads.

The last home draw can be traced back to the 2006-2007 season, when the two teams scored 0-0 at home and away, and the last time Real Betis took all three points at the Bernabéu Stadium dates back to the 1998-1999 season 15 years ago. .

Compared with the lineup for participating in the International Champions Cup, Ancelotti's team has made significant adjustments.

The goalkeeper sent Diego Lopez, who was in a better state, the four defenders did not change much, Marcelo, Ramos, Pepe and Carvajal, and the double midfielder was Khedira's partner Mo Delici, Cristiano Ronaldo and Di Maria are on the left and one on the right, with Tang Zheng playing in the center and Benzema at the front.

The tactical thinking of Real Betis, who was a guest at the Bernabéu Stadium, was very clear from the beginning of the game-a draw is a victory!

Real Madrid's formation is a very aggressive four-two-three formation, while Real Betis officially gives a four-five formation, but in fact it is a five-five formation. It seems that they only want to hold one point.

Breaking dense defenses has always been a worldwide problem, and Ancelotti, who is coaching Real Madrid for the first time in an official game, has nothing to do. All he can do now is wait!

Wait for Real Betis to take the initiative to make mistakes!

Or, wait for your team's star to shine.

Both Cristiano Ronaldo and Tang Zheng have abilities in this area, but the game has just started, and the Real Betis players have plenty of energy and focus on defense, and there are very few problems exposed.

In addition, the problem that Ancelotti is worried about still exists, and there is no sign of improvement.

Regardless of whether it was the Real Madrid fans at the scene or the Real Madrid fans in front of the TV, they all wanted to see the connection between Tang Zheng and Cristiano Ronaldo, but the tacit understanding between the two was very low, and even the most common small-scale cooperation did not appear.

It's not that Tang Zheng and Cristiano Ronaldo are not in touch with each other, but that their rhythm is not at the same point, and the two like to compete with each other, which brings some negative effects to Real Madrid's offense.

Cristiano Ronaldo has a very strong desire to perform, but Real Betis' defensive right-sided players have already figured out the number of his breakthroughs. specialty.

On the other side, Di Maria thrived under Tang Zheng's 'care'. He and Tang Zheng did not speak the same language family, and usually had a lot of private exchanges. Although the friendship was not very deep, at least it could be improved. The tacit understanding of the game.

Also playing well is the right back Carvajal. During his time at Leverkusen, he has experienced Tang Zheng's strength. After he put in an assist, he spared no effort. Tang Zheng has a wide vision, so he defended Real Betis. When the player is too inward, he passes a long and accurate oblique pass.

As the offensive on the right continued to grow, Cristiano Ronaldo on the left seemed to be getting more and more sluggish, and his kicks were not smooth.

Tang Zheng plays a very important role in Ancelotti's tactical system, even more important than Cristiano Ronaldo, so when the offense is in a stalemate, the football should be given priority to Tang Zheng, and he will decide the attack method.

※※※

Tang Zheng has a variety of offensive methods. Not only does he have outstanding long-range shooting ability, but he can also catch the opponent's defensive loopholes in the process of moving. Therefore, as time goes by, Real Betis defensive players become more and more anxious.

In the twenty-fifth minute, Tang Zheng flicked the ball to the right with the outside instep of his right foot at a distance of about 30 meters from the bottom line on the attacking left rib, looked up at Carvajal who was attacking at high speed from the right, and then swung his right foot. foot,

He managed to trick Cedric into blocking with his leg.

Tang Zheng swung his right foot back quickly, and used the front of the instep to move the ball forward to the left. His right foot was about fifteen centimeters in front of the right side of the football. Swinging his left foot was a powerful long-range shot.

After several years of tempering, the accuracy of Tang Zheng's left foot is not much worse than that of his right foot, so this long-range shot has a very good angle when it is full of volume.

Goalkeeper Anderson is well positioned and reacts quickly, with a right-hand save to lift the ball over the bar.

"Ooh-oh--"

Suddenly, there was a loud exclamation at the Bernabéu stadium.

According to the slow motion playback, it was really just a little bit worse!

Tang Zheng, who didn't score the first goal at the Bernabéu, also looked very regretful, covering his head with his hands.

He Wei, the commentator of Central 5, said witty words: "The shot is wonderful, the jump is beautiful! Tang Zheng is in really good condition, his offensive organization has gradually taken effect, and now he is using long-range shots to warn Real Betis who is a guest! I want to take The next game will be even more exciting! The best way to break through the dense defense is nothing more than long-range shots and set kicks. Tang Zheng is very good at these two aspects. It seems... his first goal at the Bernabéu will soon be over. advent……"

The Spanish national television commentator was also optimistic about Tang Zheng's performance, and even Ancelotti, who was standing on the sideline nervously directing the game, thought so.

But no one thought that Real Betis, who was a guest, would open the scoring first...

Cedric cut the ball off Cristiano Ronaldo in midfield and launched a counterattack, and Khedira was half a beat slow with the tackle.

Then Sateli started in the middle and accelerated to run more than 50 meters. He swayed in front of the penalty area and sent a straight pass from the right side of the penalty area. Molina fell to the ground and stretched his right foot to rub the ball before Pepe intercepted it. Diego Lopez scrambles into the net between his legs.

The close-up shots of the live broadcast were first handed over to Cristiano Ronaldo who made a fatal mistake. In the live broadcast, he pursed his mouth and was very regretful.

Benzema, who was closest, patted him on the shoulder as a sign of comfort.

Cristiano Ronaldo patted Benzema on the back with a heavy expression, expressing that he knew it well.

But I made up my mind that I must make up for my mistakes in the next game.

Tang Zheng performed so well in his first show at the Bernabéu, how could he, who is Real Madrid's real thigh, become a sinner in the first game of the new season?

The game restarted, and Cristiano Ronaldo's desire for the ball was very strong.

Faced with Cristiano Ronaldo's frequent waving requests, even if other teammates were in a better position, Tang Zheng was embarrassed not to give the ball to Cristiano Ronaldo.

It's not that Cristiano Ronaldo's deterrence is so great, but that the position where he wants the ball is too close, and Tang Zheng doesn't give it to him, it seems a bit difficult.

Contradictions off the court are one thing, but on the court another.

Tang Zheng is a very thoughtful player, he and Cristiano Ronaldo do not conflict with each other on the field, the only conflict is the status of the locker room.

Cristiano Ronaldo has been in Real Madrid for four years, and he has just arrived, and he must perform better if he wants to get more voice.

As the core of the team's midfield, the scoring task is not so heavy, and the overall offense is the most important thing.

Since Cristiano Ronaldo asks for the ball, give it to him.

After all, "fairness" is in the hearts of the people. It is clear at a glance who performed well on the court and who performed poorly.

Cristiano Ronaldo has a strong desire for the ball, but has little contribution to the team.

The cross after his breakthrough lacked the sight under the interference of the opponent's player. The long shot after the inside cut either hit the opponent's player or fired an anti-aircraft gun.

The rhythm is wrong and the kick is not going well.

As Cristiano Ronaldo squandered opportunities, Tang Zheng consciously passed the ball to the side of Di Maria and Carvajal.

Two minutes later, Real Madrid, sitting at the Bernabeu, equalized the score.

Carvajal took advantage of the fact that Real Betis' defensive players were concentrated in the center and left, and quietly stepped in.

He knew that Tang Zheng would definitely be able to see it.

as predicted!

When he was running parallel to the last Real Betis defender, Perquis, Tang Zheng teleported over with a precise slant.

The central defender Perquez, who was dragged behind, raised his right arm and signaled the linesman Carvajal to be offside.

But the linesman was unmoved and followed Carvajal's run forward.

In other words... not offside!

Tang Zheng's pass and Carvajal's running position are quite in harmony. Carvajal who inserts behind doesn't need to slow down and is very comfortable, so he only needs to adjust his step while running.

I saw Carvajal in the broadcast screen directly swung his right foot, and swept the ball directly to the middle of the penalty area without stopping.

Benzema, who outflanked and followed up in the middle, caught up with him and kicked the ball to the far corner of the goal.

1:1

Real Madrid equalized the score!

At the same time, Central 5 commentator He Wei said ecstatically: "Many people say that Ozil can make the game easier, Tang Zheng's role is more obvious, he can be at any time, any place will not be an opportunity The opportunity was created into an excellent opportunity! His pass to Carvajal is very good, the so-called person arrives at the ball, this is the pass! It is not an exaggeration to describe it as a master-level performance!"

Ancelotti, standing in front of the home team's coaching area, finally let out a sigh of relief, because the premise of winning is to equalize the score.

The Bernabéu stadium also sounded deafening huge cheers, but Cristiano Ronaldo looked very depressed.

He wanted to help the team equalize, but the Real Betis defenders paid special attention to him.

Two fists are hard to beat four hands, which can be described as Cristiano Ronaldo who is eager for meritorious service.

※※※

Real Madrid, who equalized the score, played more and more flexible in the fanatical home atmosphere, and it seemed that it was only a matter of time before they overtook the score.

Cristiano Ronaldo is still working hard and asking for the ball a lot.

But compared to before the team equalized the score, he played more calmly. He no longer frequently relied on his personal ability to pass or cut inside, but tried to cooperate with his teammates.

Benzema has cooperated with Cristiano Ronaldo for four seasons, with a high degree of tacit understanding, and Di Maria has also cooperated for three seasons, with a high degree of tacit understanding.

Only Tang Zheng had the lowest level of tacit understanding with him, but in the eyes of many commentators and head coach Ancelotti, it was not the length of cooperation time, but the lack of a desire to seek cooperation between the two.

And this desire comes from the friendship outside the arena.

Like Cristiano Ronaldo when he was at Manchester United, he and Rooney often played some exquisite small-scale cooperation in the game, which was hard to guard against.

This is talent?

The tacit understanding of the game?

Do not!

It is a habit developed during normal training, or in other words... Habits become natural.

As long as the usual relationship is good enough, training will consciously observe each other's playing habits, so as to achieve the purpose of increasing tacit understanding.

There is a lot of small-scale cooperation in the training ground, and you are still worried about the lack of tacit understanding in the game?

So what worries Ancelotti in the coaching area of ​​the home team is not whether the team can get a good start at home, but what he is most worried about is whether Cristiano Ronaldo and Tang Zheng can form a tacit understanding.

Even if they lose points at the beginning of the season, there is still room for maneuver, otherwise it will be troublesome when the league enters a critical period.

It has always been difficult for a wealthy head coach to do it, especially for a wealthy team like Real Madrid, which has a lower fault tolerance rate.

Before Mourinho came to Real Madrid, La Liga was ruled by Barcelona, ​​and his arrival gradually broke Barcelona's rule.

In the 2011-2012 season, La Liga scored a record 100 points, but was dismissed because of improper relationship with the domestic stars in the 2012-2013 season.

Ancelotti's personality and way of dealing with the world make it difficult for him to have conflicts with the players, but as the head coach, if he can't handle things in the team well, he will not be far from getting out of class.

The game on the field continued, and Real Madrid, which was at home, still had an absolute advantage, with the ball possession rate increasing from 64% to 72%.

Cristiano Ronaldo is still very depressed, no matter where he is, he will be taken care of by Real Betis defensive players.

Tang Zheng ran aggressively and was far away from the goal, even if the defensive players wanted to defend, they were powerless.

After all, the Bernabéu stadium is so big, it is not so difficult to control the core players who are actively running in the midfield.

The head coach of Real Betis is not stupid. They came to the Bernabeu with a draw in mind, and it is completely acceptable to end the game according to the current score.

As the game passed by every minute and every second, it was almost 45 minutes, and the frenzied atmosphere of the Bernabéu Stadium gradually declined.

The Spanish national TV commentator shook his head and said: "It seems that the Bernabéu fans are a little dissatisfied with the fact that the players on the field do not score. They protest in this silent way, protest..."

However, before the words fell, Real Madrid suddenly launched a wave of offensive.

Tang Zheng retreated to attack the 40-meter area to seek the cooperation of Modric and Di Maria, and through continuous pass and cut cooperation, he came to attack the 35-meter area.

He noticed that the attention of the Real Betis players had dropped a bit, and the forward move was not strong enough.

So, Tang Zheng swung his right foot directly while running, without even raising his head, it was all based on feeling.

"Boom~"

The football went straight to the goal like a fired shell, and neither Matilla nor Nossa stepped forward to block it.

They subconsciously turned their heads to look at the football flying towards the goal, and they were startled.

Goalkeeper Anderson looked at the football that came in front of him in a blink of an eye.

But compared to the flying speed of football, his saving speed is obviously slower.

A few tenths later, there was a deafening roar at the Bernabéu stadium.

Tang Zheng, on the other hand, opened his arms and closed his eyes, feeling the huge energy released by the Bernabéu stadium.
