Starting from playing as a defensive midfielder for Real Madrid

Chapter 114 Real Madrid’s championship appearance can’t be hidden anymore, so they won’t hide it any

Cross felt that he was very tired from playing today.

Not only because he has to face the personal "care" of Essien and Li Ang at all times.

His playing characteristics are destined. Even if the opponent sends someone to mark him one-on-one, he can still use his passing skills to connect the team's operation well.

But Li Ang used his predictions countless times today to force him to give up his preferred passing route.

This made him very annoyed, and he even had the urge to grab Li Ang's collar and ask him if he was deliberately going against him.

It is very uncomfortable for the organizer to have an organizer give up the best route for the ball in his eyes again and again. It is simply more uncomfortable than directly stealing the ball from him!

Li Ang didn't seem to know it at all, and he seemed to be enjoying it.

Although he is not able to get stuck in Cross's forward passing route in time every time.

But every time he successfully selected a position to force Kroos to cross or split the ball, Li Ang would smile comfortably.

Not to mention Kroos, the person involved, Bastian Schweinsteiger, the bystander, felt his teeth itch when he saw this shameless appearance.

But their anger and anxiety could not change the current situation of the game too much.

Because Real Madrid's current three-back defensive tactic is really difficult to attack with force.

Li Ang and Essien are not the kind of bulky tall intercepting midfielders. They have flexible postures, a large sweeping area, and good physical fitness.

Relying on their abundant physical ability to play the "shadow clone technique" with you, they can be seen on the left and right sides of the midfield intercepting or assisting their teammates in intercepting.

Do you think they would be tired after fighting for ten or twenty minutes?

It turned out not to be the case. He ran more and looked more energetic than before!

Occasionally, you got rid of their pursuit and interception, and you entered the defensive center of Real Madrid. You were about to breathe a sigh of relief, but when you looked up, Alonso was blocked in front of you!

This tactic is rogue, but actually fair.

Because Li Ang and Essien are using their physical energy to exchange for a solid defense in their own half.

If Bayern's players are not in a hurry, they can use up their physical energy and then launch an efficient and ferocious offensive in the last twenty minutes of the game.

But the question is, can the current Bayern players not be in a hurry?

Trailing 0-2 at halftime, this situation was really unacceptable to the Bayern generals who were confident of winning before the game.

However, the experienced Hai Shuai is still calm now.

He was very dissatisfied with the current score on the court at this moment, but he also knew that at this time, he could not mess up his tactical thinking.

So he first yelled on the sidelines and issued two "keep calm" reminders, and then replaced Muller in the 39th minute of the first half.

It also allowed Muller to clearly convey his new tactical instructions to every Bayern player on the field.

Bastian Schweinsteiger ended up feeling slightly disappointed, and Heynckes hugged his midfielder and comforted him.

"We have now reached a moment where we have to sacrifice unity, Bastian (Schweinsteiger), I hope you understand me."

The sea coach's comfort still worked. At least Schweinsteiger did not make any dissatisfied actions. He waved his arms on the sidelines to indicate that Bayern fans could give the team more support.

Muller, who shouldered the tactical burden, also took over Kroos's position with a serious face. Kroos retreated in front of Gustavo and became an organizational midfielder.

Bayern is going to change their style of play and speed up!

The Real Madrid players on the field all understood this, and they all looked to the sidelines in unison, looking at Mourinho who also stood up and walked to the sidelines at this moment!

"Tactics No. 4! Let's use tactics No. 4!"

Mourinho made a simple "number four" gesture, and all Real Madrid players could see it clearly.

"Focus on Mueller! Stare him to death, Leon!"

Li Ang received the exact tactical instructions and nodded sharply to Mourinho.

Tactics No. 4 is actually a variation of Mourinho's tactics on today's starting lineup before the game.

The formation will change from 4231 to 442.

Among them, Di Maria on the striker will retreat to the midfield, Ronaldo and Benzema will rush forward, and the range of the return defense will at least reach the center line.

Essien and Alonso form a double midfielder to continue to protect the back line. As for Li Ang.

He is about to conduct tactical exchanges with the opponent's threat figures or core players.

It can be regarded as a free man in the half. Mourinho's only requirement for Li Ang in this tactical play is to lock down the target person one-on-one.

The tactical inspiration naturally comes from the previous games in which Li Ang stabilized his mentality and pestered Messi throughout the game.

This also shows how wary Mourinho is about Muller's appearance at this moment.

As far as the tone of the game is concerned, Real Madrid will not shrink too much in the half and allow Bayern to calmly organize the forward pressure.

But now there are only a few minutes left before the end of the first half. The team leading by two goals would be a fool not to seek stability.

If your opponent really scores a goal, it's not unusual for them to try their best to comeback in the second half.

Mourinho's adjustments have generally been praised by many commentators.

The commentator from Spain's Movistar strongly agreed with Real Madrid's tactical adjustments at this moment, and repeatedly encouraged all Real Madrid players on the field, hoping that they could withstand the pressure until the halftime whistle blew.

Bayern began to take the ball frequently on both wings.

Muller's movement characteristics also showed their power at this time. His tendency to penetrate deeper into Real Madrid's defense also well connected the connection between his teammates on the wings and Gomez.

But just when he successfully helped Bayern slowly open up the situation on the offensive end, Li Ang, who was familiar with his playing style, chose to directly confront!

Muller's physical confrontation ability is average among the forwards in the four major leagues, but Li Ang is barely top-notch in this aspect.

Therefore, once Li Ang gets physical, Muller's performance will naturally be limited.

However, Muller doesn't care too much. His skills are very comprehensive. In the past, when he encountered this kind of defensive method of being pressed by the opponent's body, he could get rid of it by running in a wide range.

This is what he wants to do now.

But when he realized that no matter where he ran, Li Ang was chasing after him, he immediately felt that he was in big trouble!

Heynckes glanced helplessly at the coaching bench next door.

As for what!

Are you using defensive tactics against Muller?

Does Muller have such a high tactical threat?

Heynckes was a little confused. He could understand that Mourinho would use Liang to restrict Robben and Ribery.

Only Mourinho's emphasis on Muller cannot be understood.

But what Hai Shuai doesn't know is that Mourinho has been deeply impressed by Muller's playing style and running characteristics since the UEFA Champions League final in the 2009-10 season.

Not to mention that Muller's sudden fame at the World Cup in South Africa made coaches and players around the world aware of this new German star.

In the past two seasons, Muller has scored 38 goals and produced 25 assists in all competitions.

With such a dazzling performance, it is difficult for Mourinho not to pay attention to Muller.

"This kid is just like Li Ang. When he comes on the court, he can make the surrounding teammates play more comfortable. He can link up the cooperation between teammates on different lines. Moreover, the more he plays in key games, the harder he performs!"

This was Mourinho's personal evaluation summary of Muller at the tactical research meeting before the game.

Therefore, Mourinho has made high-level tactical restrictions on Muller, which is completely well-founded.

Even if Muller's performance this season is not as outstanding as the previous two seasons.

But Mourinho still doesn't want to give him too much room to play.

With Muller locked up, Robben and Ribery could only continue to struggle with Real Madrid defenders on the wing.

The two of them have to cut inside, and the defensive interference from Essien and Alonso is enough.

If it doesn't work, Di Maria can continue to retreat and push forward for a while!

Gomez could only forcefully compete for the top spot under the double-teaming of Pepe and Ramos.

There are no more tactical changes in Bayern's combination of wing and center. If there is a threat, there is a threat, but you still have to rely on luck.

To break the tie, Heynckes must add at least one forward!

But when that time comes, Real Madrid will get more offensive opportunities in the half where Bayern is slightly open.

Link by link, Mourinho has figured out all the Seamaster's back-ups in terms of tactical deployment.

As for Li Ang being unable to lock Mueller?

Mourinho didn't even think about it.

And Li Ang, who was on the court this time, also repaid Mourinho's absolute trust in him with his performance.

Five whole minutes.

After he got a little familiar with Muller's playing style, he guarded Muller for five minutes!

It highlights the tenacity of "I can do nothing, but you can't even think of doing anything"!

Without Li Ang's vigorous sweep on the defensive end, other Real Madrid defensive players have indeed added a lot of defensive pressure.

But just like Li Ang trusted them 100%, they also tenaciously withstood Bayern's wave of cross attacks!

Muller tried every way to escape during this period, and he even used the trick of calling his teammates for pick-and-rolls.

As a result, Li Ang was very smart and made a blocking foul on Bayern.

It can only be said that when a smart person meets a smart person, Muller has a trick, and Leon also has a way to solve the trick.

With physical confrontation dominant, speed almost the same, and flexibility dominant, Li Ang really locked up Mueller until he lost all smiles on his face.

"Do you speak English?"

When he was upset, Mueller chose not to answer when he heard Li Ang's harassing questions.

"No? No, I remember you can, so can you speak Italian? Or, do you actually know a little Spanish?"

Li Ang started the mental bombing, and Mueller gritted his teeth and left quickly, but Li Ang had no intention of letting Mueller go and chased after him again.

"Hey, I know you know English, Thomas, you have to understand me. After all, I don't want to treat you like this. Our coach asked me to do this. I'm really a good person who is easy to get along with."

When Mueller heard this, his head seemed to grow twice in size.

He has never seen such a shameless person!

And just when he couldn't help but fight back in English, the referee's whistle finally sounded.

"Thank you, Mr. Referee!"

After exhaling, Muller thanked the referee from the bottom of his heart, and then trotted back to the tunnel with his teammates.

At this time, the thousands of Real Madrid fans at the scene were relieved and celebrated happily again, which attracted dissatisfied boos from the Bayern fans.

But this does not affect the happy mood of Real Madrid fans at all.

Mourinho also walked briskly and Karanka returned to the player tunnel first.

After Li Ang, Ramos, and Brother Long high-fived each other, they walked off the field laughing and joking.

Commentators from various countries took advantage of the intermission to analyze the tactical game of the two teams in the first half, and speculated on the tactical changes of the coaches of the two teams in the second half.

But to say which side is more optimistic, except for the German commentators, they are basically siding with Real Madrid.

Lian Duanxuan, an old Bayern fan, could only express his support for Li Ang and Real Madrid under the guidance of Zhang's coach after the passion faded.

"Then, in games where Li Ang is present, I will definitely stand on Li Ang's side first. It is voluntary. I am voluntary. If Li Ang really succeeds in entering the Champions League final with Real Madrid, then I think I will be with my friends. Let’s celebrate big first, and then try our best to cheer for Li Ang at the finals!”

Duan Xuan spoke not only his own voice during the break, but also expressed the voice of countless Chinese fans at this moment.

Regardless of whether they were fans of Manchester United, Arsenal, Bayern Munich, Barcelona or the Milan duo.

At this moment, they all firmly supported Li Ang and hoped that he could help Real Madrid successfully win these two rounds against Bayern and enter the Champions League final.

In the past, fans might have said, "Between my own players and my favorite club, I firmly support the club" when posting in forums.

But when this scene actually happened in reality, when Li Ang really had hope of helping Real Madrid enter the Champions League finals.

Countless Bayern fans in the country almost reluctantly switched sides.

They don't support Real Madrid, but they support Li Ang 100%.

They want to see Chinese people in this year's Champions League finals!

Li Ang, who was resting in the locker room at the moment, actually understood how many people's expectations he carried on his shoulders.

Regardless of whether you like it or not, whether you are willing to accept such attention and carry such huge expectations, this is the fact.

Don't talk about being relaxed and responsible, and cutting off the domestic fan base.

That's not realistic.

When Li Ang accepted business cooperation from domestic giants and received huge amounts of domestic endorsement fees one after another, he was bound to take on such responsibilities.

Of course, he himself is willing to shoulder this burden.

Otherwise, why did he nod and agree to join the national youth team as soon as he accepted the call-up?

Now he can't fight for his country, but Li Ang can still prove it with his own efforts.

Not only players from South Korea and Japan can gain a foothold in European football and stand on the stage of the Champions League finals.

Li Ang can do the same!

With more determination and confidence than the outside world expected, Li Ang set foot on the Allianz Arena in Munich again in high spirits before the start of the second half.

Neither he nor any player on the Real Madrid team will make any reservations about this game.

Even after the game, they returned to La Liga and faced the El Clasico with Barcelona, ​​but they did not have the slightest concern.

Mourinho had already mobilized during the halftime break.

After surviving this Champions League semi-final battle, they are qualified to start looking at the final.

If they were equalized by Bayern today with a 2-0 lead or even came back against the wind, it would be an insult to their dignity and determination!

This game is a battle where they want to fight to the end without making any reservations!

With this awareness, from the beginning of the second half of the game, Real Madrid accelerated and ran at full strength!

Li Ang still struggled with Muller after the game restarted.

But this situation did not last long.

Because Heynckes made another substitution adjustment in the 56th minute of the second half.

Kroos is off and Olic is on!

Hai Shuai played the last offensive card in his hand, and he no longer left any room.

He chose to start a desperate counterattack when there were still nearly forty minutes left in the game!

This is Heynckes, a rigorous character but also decisive and adventurous!

Mourinho was indeed surprised when he saw Olic play, but then he also made new tactical adjustments.

Real Madrid changed their formation again, and Li Ang also let go of his entanglement with Muller.

Because they are also going to blow the horn of attack!

"Four three three! Real Madrid changed their formation to play four three three! Mourinho is very bold! He will lead his team to fight Bayern at the Allianz Arena in Munich today! Real Madrid are not conservative at all, they also have to use offensive methods Way back and forth to worship Jen’s ferocious forward press!”

Duan Xuan felt goosebumps all over his body.

This is the courage and tactical decisiveness that the coaches of both sides of the Champions League semi-finals should have!

The neutral fans also sincerely applauded the coaches of the two teams and the tough and brave players at this moment!

The offensive and defensive rhythm of both sides quickly picked up.

Fierce fighting, active defense without giving up any ground, and quick counterattacks with similar styles from both sides.

Bayern's style is unrestrained and their tactics are direct.

At this point, if you can't break into Real Madrid's hinterland, you can directly pass the ball and bomb. Olic and Muller can grab two points very well, and there are two wingers on the outside who can shoot from long range.

From the ground to high altitude, Bayern's all-round bombing put the pressure on Real Madrid's defense sharply increased!

But now they only have one defensive midfielder left, and the open midfield has become a playground for Real Madrid's offensive players.

Ronaldo played from the 58th minute to the 64th minute of the second half.

In just six minutes, he received passes from his teammates and performed two extremely threatening solo performances!

Benzema's pulling task was completed quite well.

Give Ronaldo the ball and help him open up space for one-on-ones.

To be honest, Neuer's performance was too eye-catching and his reaction was too outrageous, otherwise Cristiano Ronaldo would have scored at least one more goal these two times by himself!

Boateng was very confident before the game and thought he could defend Ronaldo alone.

But now he has no such thoughts at all.

He sincerely called Gustavodo to help him double-team Ronaldo.

The two teams took the risk of losing the ball at all times on the defensive end, and increased their power on the offensive end without wavering in determination.

Essien has some physical problems. He can still persist if he wants to, but now he must slow down first.

Li Ang is okay.

After many torturous games this season that drained his physical fitness, his current physical fitness value has risen to 92.

To be honest, he may not be able to compare with the sub-peak Nedved, but he is still a top physical monster in football.

His hard work has relieved Alonso's burden on both offense and defense.

Compared with the running speed of other players on the field that has slowed down slightly due to extreme physical exertion, Li Ang's figure still running all over the field at this moment seems very "dazzling".

After the 70th minute of the second half, his physical reserve gradually turned into his advantage.

After all, after an athlete's physical fitness drops to a threshold, technical movements will inevitably become deformed, leading to an increase in mistakes.

Li Ang's passing technique makes fewer mistakes, which naturally provides Real Madrid with more advantages on both offense and defense.

After Bayern failed to attack for a long time, it was inevitable that the players would have impatient psychological problems.

So in the 75th minute, after Li Ang saw Brother Long decisively put down a shovel to regain the ball from Muller, he made a bold decision!

"Fabio!"

Li Ang shouted out the name of Coentrao, who went to get the ball for the first time, and then started to push forward!

Coentrao saw that Li Ang still had enough energy to push for a counterattack, so he didn't think much and directly chose to send a long pass!

Now Alaba, who was preparing to intercept on the ground in the Real Madrid half, felt uncomfortable.

After Li Ang judged the landing point of this long pass, he directly chose the continuous unloading and carrying forward method!

Starting from the top of the center circle of Real Madrid's half and advancing with the ball, Li Ang's running figure made the tens of thousands of Bayern fans present instantly become nervous!

Real Madrid's Benzema and Ronaldo, who could do enough alone, quickly helped Li Ang open up space to advance.

And Di Maria, who had participated in too many return defenses before, gritted his teeth and barely kept up with Li Ang's counterattack.

Relying on his better physical fitness than Gustavo, Leon once again changed direction to hit the ball when he was approaching Gustavo. He himself also squeezed out his physical fitness and sprinted again, barely avoiding Gustavo's pull. .

Mourinho was squatting on the sidelines with his hands clenched nervously, praying in his heart that the Real Madrid player who received the ball would score the goal!

Heynckes also yelled nervously on the sidelines to ask his players to return to defense faster.

Li Ang didn't hesitate too much. After passing Gustavo, his feet were a little weak and he immediately chose to score the ball.

The target is Ronaldo!

This is a through ball that is not too fast!

After Badstuber had to follow Benzema and ran to the right side of the penalty area, the through ball sent by Li Ang accurately rolled to the front of Ronaldo's path.

Neuer abandoned the goal again!

Seeing that Boateng had been thrown away by Ronaldo and did not dare to foul in the penalty area, he could only choose to attack!

But this time, Ronaldo chose to go it alone!

The moment he touched the ball, he took a horizontal step, and Ronaldo himself jumped to avoid Neuer's shovel!

With his powerful explosive ability, Ronaldo twisted his body at the last moment and completed the push!

Ram, who was chasing after him, was still half a meter away. After throwing himself out, he didn't tackle the ball. Instead, he slid into the goal!

Ram closed his eyes in pain, knowing that everything was over.

At this moment, Ronaldo, who scored the goal that truly killed the game, was so excited that he took off his jersey!

He roared and celebrated with a passionate slide near Bayern's bottom line!

Li Ang followed closely, and after sliding over and kneeling over, he roared and hugged Ronaldo fiercely!

3-0!

A real battle to decide the outcome!

Real Madrid can no longer hide their championship status, so they won’t hide it anymore!
