Although Auxerre was third in Ligue 1 last season, they have never been able to adjust to a good competitive state after the start of this season.

There were five draws and two losses in the first seven rounds of the league, and they lost to AC Milan 0-3 in the first round of the Champions League.

Such a "Third Ligue 1" team that has not won a single victory so far can only be said to be unworthy of its name.

For the sake of caution, Mourinho designed the opening tactics to be relatively conservative, and what stood out was a test.

But it was better not to test. Once the test revealed Auxerre's strength on both offense and defense, the Real Madrid players had only one idea left in their minds.

"This is a dish!"

Mourinho was also a little confused.

Of course he can also see that the strength of this team is at the middle and lower reaches of La Liga at best, and at most a little ahead of the relegation zone.

Without a major lineup change or experiencing high-level turmoil, Auxerre has dropped from third place in Ligue 1 last season to its current strength. The decline is really too big.

But, for Real Madrid, this is a great thing.

"Press up! Keep the pressure on their defense! We have to try to break the deadlock in the first half!"

Mourinho stood on the sidelines and waved his hands to give the latest tactical instructions.

Real Madrid's midfielders and frontcourt players saw this and their eyes lit up.

Of course, there was no figure of Li Ang among the crowd who pressed forward one after another.

He will take up the position with Alonso and continue to provide support and defensive protection for Alonso.

But Alonso can press through the center line, but Li Ang can only reach the top of the center circle in his own half.

Sometimes Ramos goes forward more aggressively than him, but he still chooses to firmly guard the "door" of his own half with Pepe.

It is precisely because of his delaying that the teammates in front of him can attack forward with more confidence and peace of mind.

Auxerre could barely hold on under the ferocious firepower of this dimensionality-reducing strike.

In the 18th minute of the first half, they finally counterattacked with a long pass for the first time in the game.

The football flew over Alonso's head and flew directly to the left side of Real Madrid's half. Auxerre forward Contot also completed his forward movement in an instant.

Because Marcelo had just participated in a side attack at this time, it was too late to chase back.

Therefore, countless viewers in front of the TV set looked at Li Ang, who had been "unremarkable" in Real Madrid's half.

Pepe has to cover the middle, he cannot go wide, and he can chase the person marking Contort one-on-one. At this time, only Li Ang is the only one!

Contort is a typical speedy black winger.

The technique is good, but the overall situation and vision are not very good, and the passing is only so-so.

But this type of player is quite sharp in counterattacking.

He can run and rush, is fast, and can dribble well.

If he fights for speed normally, Li Ang will not be Contort's opponent, but he also has his own absolute advantage on the defensive end.

That means pre-judged position selection and a stronger body!

Almost as soon as Auxerre midfielder intercepted the ball and completed a long pass, Li Ang started to make defensive moves in advance.

He didn't stay in the backcourt for nearly twenty minutes just to be in a daze.

He is always observing which side Auxerre prefers to control the ball when attacking.

Olich, who had been roaming in the middle, was the focus of Auxerre's attack at the beginning.

But Khedira made it difficult for him today, and he failed to perform well in several passes.

Later, Auxerre's midfielder gradually handed more offensive ball rights to Contort on the wing.

On his side, Marcelo likes to attack aggressively, so he has plenty of offensive opportunities.

Li Ang saw all this, and he believed in his analysis and judgment.

Facts now prove that his defensive prediction is completely correct.

With the blocking position in advance, Li Ang has already taken the defensive advantage as the football progresses!

"Oh! Beautiful pre-judgment position! Conteto wanted to squeeze past Li Ang, but Li Ang's body did not suffer at all! Conteto was squeezed out of the sideline! Wonderful defense! Li Ang successfully destroyed Auxerre A rare opportunity to threaten and counterattack!”

He Wei spoke very quickly. After seeing Li Ang forcefully push Conte out of the sideline, and then pass the ball back to Pepe, he was so excited that his scalp went numb!

"A complete top-level defensive performance! Anticipated position selection, resolute route blocking, and tough confrontation! It's great! Just like Makelele who stood behind a group of Real Madrid superstars, Li Ang's presence also made Today’s group of Real Madrid stars can attack with more confidence!”

Zhang Lu was also very excited. This was his first time commentating on Li Ang's game on Wutai.

Although I have seen Li Ang's performance in La Liga and the first Champions League group stage before.

But at this moment, he and He Wei were witnessing Li Ang's wonderful performance with countless domestic fans. The feeling was completely different, and the excitement was even stronger.

Li Ang's current defensive ability can be regarded as one of the best among the younger generation of players, but to say it is top-notch is a pure exaggeration.

However, the Chinese fans agreed and liked Zhang Lu's praise of Li Ang.

Regardless of whether he is objective or not, all he needs to do is praise Li Ang vigorously. They like to hear it!

At this time, on the court, the Real Madrid stars who had made a false alarm also applauded Li Ang's successful defense.

Mourinho even gave Li Ang a thumbs up.

Pepe did not delay after receiving the ball and quickly passed the ball to Alonso who retreated to receive the ball.

Real Madrid took advantage of the situation and stopped defending. After Khedira got the ball from Alonso, he began to actively push forward.

However, the midfielders and frontcourt players who had just followed Auxerre forward now had to use all their strength to chase back.

Khedira's decisive advance with the ball further disrupted Auxerre's slightly messy defense when it switched from attack to defense.

Li Ang clearly saw Ronaldo's starting trend on the left wing in the backcourt. He was afraid that Khedira would delay the opportunity by dribbling the ball, so he yelled with all his strength in the noisy stadium.

“Left—!!!”

I don’t know if Khedira heard Li Ang’s reminder. Maybe he saw it in advance. As soon as Li Ang finished speaking, he raised his foot and sent an overhead through ball to the left!

Cristiano Ronaldo, who succeeded in countering offside, made consecutive stops and made a single shot that was slightly out of position, without giving the Auxerre defenders behind him any chance to catch up with him and interfere with him!

Auxerre's goalkeeper Solin decisively abandoned the goal before Ronaldo entered the penalty area, but Ronaldo calmly chose to push with his left foot!

The football quickly passed Sorin's toes on the ground and bounced into the net inside the far post of the goal!

More than 4,000 Real Madrid fans cheered excitedly and celebrated!

Cristiano Ronaldo, surrounded by his teammates, laughed and celebrated by sliding and kneeling near the corner flag area!

But in the backcourt at this moment, Alonso looked at Li Ang in surprise.

He just heard the reminder that Li Ang yelled at Khedira.

However, that should be a keen early judgment made by an organizational player in a fleeting offensive opportunity!

"This kid has gained consciousness so quickly?!"

An incredible idea flashed through Alonso's mind.

What followed was the scene where Li Ang took the initiative to find him and wanted to learn from him how to organize a team.

"This is qualitative growth, little lion. It turns out you are really a genius! Not only in defense, you have already started to organize the team."

Alas, when I see some brothers talking about foodies, foodies don’t know what to say.

In fact, for me, writing about games, especially the so-called hot-blooded games, is the easiest.

In my old book, I can write about national team games in huge lengths and with passion. Is it a problem for me to write about La Liga and Champions League games?

But some plots have to be explained.

If I don’t write about the protagonist’s growth, or how the domestic fans’ attitude towards him has changed, wouldn’t it be too abrupt to mention it later?

Of course, there may be some places where the writing is too long, and some friends have criticized it. I accept it, and I will pay attention to it later.

But brothers, please believe that these plots written by Foodie have been planned in advance, and there is no temporary situation.

The results of our new book are very good. To achieve this result, I will not write randomly, let alone cheat money by exaggerating the number of words after it is released on the shelves.

We old brothers all know that foodies have always adhered to the writing concept of "sincerity for sincerity" and do not insist on rewards. Subscriptions are all calling for brothers who are capable to give them a full subscription. This is true. Please also read from the above. Don’t worry, the veterans who have followed this book, the foodie has not changed. You may get into trouble sometimes, but you will continue to reflect on yourself.

Typing this sentence will delay the time of posting, so I won’t say more.

Thank you again for your support for the new book. Nothing else. I have saved enough manuscripts for the foodie, and I will increase the volume as soon as Sanjiang is released.

no sooner said than done!
