My uncle is Inzaghi

From the initial situation.

Both sides tried to launch an offensive in the opening stage to suppress the opponent.

Both sides thought of the same thing.

So, the two sides took turns to attack, and the scene was very lively.

For neutral fans.

This Champions League final is still quite exciting.

But for Enrique.

He doesn't want to see this situation.

He hopes to see Barcelona control the ball and the rhythm.

This is what Barcelona is good at.

But now, the pace of the game is a bit fast, and the game has a tendency to get out of control.

Enrique frowned, and the game of more than ten minutes made him very anxious.

He saw the problem.

Barcelona is a little anxious!

Losing to Real Madrid three times in a row made Barcelona's players hold back a momentum, wanting to prove themselves and wanting to defeat Real Madrid.

But anything is too much.

If Barcelona can score a goal in the opening stage, then this momentum will become a raging fire that buries Real Madrid.

But now more than ten minutes have passed.

Barcelona has not scored yet.

This momentum may become a problem for Barcelona. Their players began to become anxious and gradually lacked the patience to organize when attacking.

The problem now lies here.

Although Real Madrid also had an offensive.

But Enrique saw clearly that Real Madrid's defense was very solid.

One of the evidences is their back line.

Both Carvajal and Marcelo stayed in their own half honestly.

Even Marcelo, who had the most offensive desire, did not cross the half. It can be seen that from the beginning of the game to now, although Real Madrid and Barcelona have been attacking each other, it looks quite lively.

But in fact.

Real Madrid is as stable as an old dog.

They are attacking on the basis of solid defense.

And what about Barcelona?

Alves and Abidal often press across the half, not to mention them, even the central defender Pique often dribbles across the half.

In terms of the number of people invested in the offense.

Barcelona has more than Real Madrid.

But in terms of offensive effect, it is about the same as Real Madrid.

Enrique knew that losing to Real Madrid three times in a row had become a psychological burden for Barcelona's players.

However, the more anxious they were, the worse the effect.

What he needed was for the players to calm down and find the rhythm that belonged to Barcelona.

Enrique began to shout Iniesta's name loudly on the sidelines.

At the same time, he made a gesture of pressing down with both hands.

After seeing the gesture of the head coach on the sidelines.

Iniesta quickly understood.

He raised his hand to ask for the ball, and then he was not in a hurry to pass it forward, but cooperated with the players in the midfield and backcourt to pass the ball continuously.

"Get back to our rhythm!!"

After Iniesta passed the ball to Rakitic, he pointed to his temple with both hands and said to Rakitic and Busquets.

The other two midfielders of Barcelona also understood.

Adjustments were made quickly.

Under the control of the three midfielders, Barcelona slowed down the rhythm, and they were no longer in a hurry to pass the ball forward.

Instead, they passed the ball back and forth in the midfield and backcourt, dealing with Real Madrid.

Zidane felt a little regretful when he saw this scene.

This was the scene he hated to see the most.

Barcelona controlled the ball slowly.

It didn't look threatening, but it was a test of the team's patience and concentration.

If you're not careful, the opponent might launch a fatal attack.

Zidane came to the sidelines.

He also made a gesture of pressing down with both hands.

Steady!

Seeing this, the Real Madrid players did not rush to grab the ball, but retreated steadily and stabilized the defense in the middle and backcourt.

The rhythm of both sides slowed down at once.

The two teams are worthy of being one of the strongest teams in Europe.

The rhythm can be fast or slow.

This control of the rhythm.

It is really very powerful.

Real Madrid retreated. No matter how Barcelona passed the ball, Real Madrid's defensive formation would not change. It was just that the defensive focus shifted with the ball.

Always let the most stable defense appear in the direction of the ball.

Real Madrid's solid defense made Barcelona pass back and forth for several times without finding a gap.

However, they didn't seem to be in a hurry, but continued to pass back and cross.

This made the Real Madrid fans in the stands very unhappy.

They booed immediately.

Suddenly.

In the stands of the Berlin Olympic Stadium.

Boos were heard everywhere.

Barcelona players ignored the boos from the stands and focused on passing the ball.

Real Madrid knew that Barcelona's goal was to lure them out.

Let them press forward and expose the gaps in the midfield and backcourt.

Then create opportunities for Messi and other front-court attackers.

So they were determined not to be fooled.

Both sides were fighting hard.

The commentators were very depressed.

What happened?

They were playing well against each other before, why did they suddenly stop?

The game suddenly changed from a fast pace to a slow pace.

Who could have predicted this?

But the commentators were also very professional.

They quickly found other angles to blow.

"Both teams showed very mature tactical qualities, worthy of the Champions League final!"

Of course.

Barcelona did not attack.

They would suddenly pass the ball forward to catch Real Madrid off guard.

But Real Madrid was prepared for this.

In the 27th minute of the game.

Iniesta suddenly pressed forward and passed the ball to Neymar.

When Neymar was about to cross the ball, Carvajal intercepted the ball.

Then Carvajal made a long pass to Li Mo.

Li Mo took the ball and turned around to shoot a long shot in the area 30 meters away from the goal.

The football was saved by Ter Stegen.

Real Madrid got a corner kick!

"Corner kick! Real Madrid's set-piece is coming!"

The commentators were immediately excited.

Real Madrid's set-piece attack is very threatening.

Barcelona's set-piece defense has never been good.

Real Madrid has many players who are good at heading.

Now the two sides have formed a stalemate on the field.

Set-pieces are the best way to break the deadlock.

Li Mo stood in front of the goal.

There will always be defensive players around him.

Because Barcelona dare not leave Li Mo alone.

This is no different from seeking death.

Real Madrid obviously attaches great importance to this corner kick.

Ramos and Varane both entered the penalty area.

Modric took the corner kick.

In the penalty area.

The players from both sides pushed and pulled each other, so Modric failed to kick the ball out several times, and the referee blew the whistle to stop the game.

All Barcelona players came back to defend.

Even Messi came back to stand on the front post to prevent Modric from sneaking in the front post corner kick and scoring directly.

And other Barcelona players also have division of labor.

Some people stand in position, and some people mark people.

And next to Li Mo.

Pique, Mascherano, and Busquets are all staring at him.

Obviously.

In the eyes of Barcelona players, Li Mo must be the core attacker of Real Madrid's set-piece attack.

Barcelona fans in front of the TV and in the stands also thought so.

They shouted "Keep an eye on Li Mo, freeze him!"

Both central defenders Pique and Mascherano did not stand in their positions, but kept an eye on Li Mo.

This shows how much Barcelona values ​​Li Mo.

Pique's hand was already on Li Mo's jersey.

But his movements were not big.

Although the referee noticed it, he did not warn him.

He had already blew the whistle three times to warn the players on both sides before.

But the players on both sides continued to make small movements.

So the referee could only turn a blind eye, otherwise, this corner kick would not be taken until the end of time.

The referee blew the whistle.

Just when Modric was about to run up.

Pique suddenly screamed!

It turned out that in order to get rid of Pique's arm holding the jersey, Li Mo unceremoniously chopped his hand down and split Pique's hand.

This scream finally attracted the attention of the referee.

Pique covered his face - Li Mo hit his hand, and he didn't know why he covered his face, maybe it was a habit.

Pique covered his face and screamed and rolled on the ground.

The dramatic effect was full.

The referee ran over and motioned Pique to get up.

Then he called the two to the side and gave Li Mo and Pique a verbal warning respectively.

Pique didn't really restrain himself.

After the referee left.

He grabbed Li Mo's jersey again.

As long as the referee doesn't give me a card, I will definitely pull it!

It's normal to have some small movements when there are so many people in the corner attack.

This time Li Mo didn't have the same experience with him.

The entanglement in the penalty area continued.

Modric raised his right hand and stretched out three fingers.

The Real Madrid players saw this gesture and knew how Modric wanted them to cooperate.

In every game, the team will prepare several positioning and coordination routines for set pieces.

It's not surprising.

With Modric's run-up.

The penalty area became more chaotic.

Li Mo suddenly rushed to the front point.

Pique couldn't hold him back.

The other Barcelona players rushed towards Li Mo at this moment.

A long line of Barcelona players followed Li Mo's buttocks.

However, Li Mo did not jump up to compete for the header, but let the football fly over his head.

Li Mo was feinting! !

Suddenly.

The Barcelona players' backs swished and cold sweats ran down.

They turned their heads and looked in the direction of the football.

They saw the figure of a Real Madrid player who inserted from the back row.

"Be careful!!"

Someone shouted loudly.

Alonso cruised here and jumped high! !

And the winger Neymar was responsible for defending at that position! !

Neymar retreated, and when he heard his teammates' reminders, he jumped up immediately, but his jump could not interfere with Alonso at all.

Alonso jumped high and overpowered Neymar to head the ball.

This ball was very easy to head! !

Because most of the defense was attracted by Li Mo.

Alonso jumped in from the back row, and Neymar's physique made it difficult for him to compete with Alonso in such a head-on confrontation.

So when the ball flew into the goal.

No one had reacted yet.

About a second later.

Then the commentator suddenly yelled: "Alonso!! Ball!! The ball is in!!!!"

Li Mo did not stop after running to the front point. After the ball flew over his head, he turned his head and saw Alonso head the ball into the goal.

Li Mo raised his arms and rushed towards Modric in the corner flag area.

It turned out that his purpose of running forward without stopping was to run to the corner flag area to celebrate the goal.

When Modric raised his third finger, everyone knew that the ball was not for Li Mo.

Instead, it was to use Li Mo's attraction to Barcelona's defense to create opportunities for other players.

Use Li Mo's huge influence to make a feint.

This was planned from the beginning.

Because everyone knew.

Barcelona would definitely defend Li Mo tightly.

In this way.

Other Real Madrid players would definitely have space.

In such a final.

Real Madrid would not mind using this to exchange for a goal!

Alonso is not a player known for his headers.

In Barcelona's defensive preparations.

Li Mo must be the first to be focused on.

But they can't just focus on Li Mo.

Real Madrid's players who are good at headers, such as Ramos and Varane, are also the focus of defense.

So no one thought of it at all.

The ball was actually found by Alonso!

And when Alonso faced Neymar, the advantage in the aerial confrontation was too great.

Neymar hardly caused him any interference.

For Alonso, this was almost equivalent to an open header.

Even if headers were not his best skill, he would not miss such a scoring opportunity.

The player who opened the scoring was not Li Mo?

This did surprise the Real Madrid fans in the stands.

But it was just a surprise.

For them.

Whoever scored a goal didn't score?

A huge cheer rang out.

At the Berlin Olympic Stadium, the cheers of Real Madrid fans completely suppressed the voices of Barcelona fans.

Barcelona fans frowned.

They knew very well what it meant to lose the ball first in such a game.

Barcelona must now strengthen their attack.

They must speed up the pace.

But this also gives Real Madrid a chance!

They can comfortably play defensive counterattacks.

This makes Barcelona fans frown when they think of what might happen next.

Real Madrid used a corner kick to sneak attack Barcelona and took the lead.

The main attack point was Alonso.

Who could have thought?

This was a very successful sneak attack!

The name most mentioned before the game was Li Mo.

It seemed that there was only one Li Mo in Real Madrid.

But in fact, excluding Li Mo.

The other players of Real Madrid are also world-class!

It's just that Li Mo's light is too dazzling, causing people to ignore them.

The sun is out.

The light of the stars can be ignored.

But this does not mean that other players of Real Madrid are not excellent.

After Alonso headed the ball into the goal.

Zidane cheered on the sidelines!

He was so happy! !

Because this was a tactical victory.

He took advantage of Li Mo's fame.

He took advantage of Li Mo's personal ability.

Accurately grasped Barcelona's psychological misunderstanding.

This was not a very sophisticated strategy, but it was very successful.

Zidane and his assistants celebrated with high fives.

Compared with the performance of the stars.

Such goals can better reflect the design of the coaching staff for the game.

The team's victory and championship are not only the credit of Li Mo alone.

The entire Real Madrid team also contributed! (End of this chapter)
