The first half of the game is over, and basically anyone watching the game can see that Schalke's situation is not good.

At home, they only have a small advantage in the scene, but they are threatened by the opponent's counterattack time and time again. If this continues, Schalke might lose at home.

During the intermission, Stevens said the solution he had thought of for more than ten minutes.

"Let's not be too aggressive in the second half of the game. Their counterattacks are very strong. Even Barcelona and Real Madrid can't do anything about their counterattacks, so we can't be careless."

"Later, we will grind with them slowly, and everyone will try their best to create opportunities for Bruce. If the game is always stalemate like this, then everyone will look at my arrangement and make adjustments."

Stevens was still afraid of the opponent's counterattack, so in the second half, he planned to arrange everyone to stabilize and play positional battles slowly, so as not to be pierced by the opponent's counterattack.

Of course, I have already tried playing positional warfare in the first half. Atletico Madrid's defense is very good, and the opponent's goalkeeper Courtois is also outstanding. Schalke may not be able to penetrate the opponent's goal, so Stevens asked more Create opportunities for Jackie Chan.ァ新ヤ~⑧~1~中文网ωωω.χ~⒏~1zщ.còм

Now he is pinning his hopes on Jackie Chan's personal ability, hoping that he can stand up and help the team score goals with the personal ability of a superstar.

If Schalke still can't find a chance in the end, then Stevens may arrange a large-scale attack in the last period of time, and finally fight again.

Schalke is a side that first hosts and then away. If they can't win their opponents at home in the first round, they will probably have an accident when they go to an away game in that round.

This season, Atletico Madrid has not only remained unbeaten in the Champions League, but also has an excellent record of winning at home.

Thinking about the next round, Atletico Madrid will never let Schalke win at the Calderon Stadium.

At the beginning of the second half of the game, Schalke turned into a slow positional battle and fought patiently with the opponent.

Atletico Madrid seem to be very happy with this situation, and have not made any special changes, that is, everything is based on a solid defense. If there is a chance, they will try to counterattack. If there is no chance, they will not be in a hurry.

Under such circumstances, the commentator began to complain again: "The game once again returned to the boring situation at the beginning."

In this slow-paced situation, both sides paid great attention to defense, and at the same time, they couldn't find a chance. The game basically became a golden bell vs. iron shirt.

Although Li Chenglong tried his best to find opportunities on the field, Atletico Madrid really cared about his defense. While sending people to follow him closely, they were cutting off the connection between him and his teammates.

Facing this kind of high-intensity defense, it doesn't mean that you can find opportunities if you want to.

In the previous quarter-finals of the Champions League, Messi faced such a high-intensity defense and had no achievements in the two rounds of the game.

You must know that before last season, Atletico Madrid was the La Liga team with the most goals scored by Messi.

In the fight between the golden bell and the iron shirt, the game time also passed quickly, and soon entered 70 minutes.

In the 73rd minute, Stevens made a substitution, allowing Goretzka to replace Neustedt.

This was a signal for Schalke to step up their offense. Stevens felt that the stalemate could no longer continue. He had to win the opponent at home, otherwise this series would be really dire.

In the 75th minute, Goretzka, who had just come off the bench, created a chance and passed the ball straight between Gabi and Miranda. Lee Chenglong stepped forward and the position was just right. The only flaw was that the position was more suitable for playing with his left foot. Door.

At this time, Li Chenglong didn't have time to make more adjustments, because Godin was already chasing after him.

So Li Chenglong swung his leg slightly, and directly used the inside of his left foot to push and shoot.

Due to the excellent state of Courtois in this game, Li Chenglong pushed as far as possible into the dead corner when pushing the shot.

Sure enough, the ball went around Courtois' fingertips, but it hit the goal post and bounced off the baseline.

"Oh, what a pity, this is a very good opportunity, but Bruce's push shot was a little bit worse, the ball hit the post and bounced out." The German commentator sighed for the ball.

"What are you doing? Follow him closely, don't give him a chance to shoot!!" Simeone on the sidelines was also taken aback, and then began to yell at his players.

In the 79th minute, Atletico Madrid also responded by relying on a quick counterattack.

Felipe sent a cross from the left and Diego Costa headed inside the penalty area, the ball went over the head of Keylor Navas and hit the crossbar.

"In a few minutes, both sides hit the door frame once, and it was another contest between the two sides." This does seem to be a bit like a contest with each other.

Atletico Madrid seems to be prepared for the tactic of speeding up the attack in the last ten minutes arranged by Stevens.

Simeone started to make substitutions at this time, while interrupting the rhythm of the game with substitutions to delay time, he also replaced defensive players by the way to ensure that the team held the last period of time.

In the 84th minute, Jackie Lee made a two-for-one cooperation with Draxler in front of the penalty area. He passed Gabi and entered the penalty area. The shot was still saved by Courtois. starter

Courtois is indeed in good condition, he happened to appear on the line of Lee Chenglong's shot and threw the ball straight.

Jackie Chan's beautiful breakthrough also became Schalke's last threatening attack. Atletico Madrid, who strengthened their defense, did not give Schalke another chance.

On the contrary, in the 87th minute, Atletico Madrid played a good counterattack. Kanter had to choose to bring down Cork to stop the opponent, so he received a yellow card.

What's worse, this yellow card is Kanter's third yellow card in the Champions League this season, and he will be suspended for the next game.

In this way, Schalke fought Atletico Madrid at home for 90 minutes, but they were still unable to break through the opponent's goal, and finally ended the first round of the Champions League semi-final with a score of 0:0.

This is also the first time Schalke has been clean at home this season.

"A 0-0 draw with Atletico Madrid at home, and Kanter, the midfielder's defensive gate, will also face suspension. This is definitely very unfavorable for Schalke."

"However, although a draw at home is unfavorable, fortunately there is no loss. In the next round, Schalke may still advance to an away game. If they lose at home, Schalke is really close to being eliminated."

This is the concern of the German commentator.

In the follow-up interview after the game, Li Chenglong was still very confident.

"The game is very difficult, but the Champions League semi-final is like this, no one will take the initiative to admit defeat."

"We did intend to win at home at the beginning, but Atletico Madrid did a good job defensively. According to the overall performance of the two teams throughout the game, the score of 0:0 is fair."

"The score of 0:0 is indeed that Atletico Madrid has a slight advantage, but step by step from the Champions League, we have crossed countless obstacles, and this time will be no exception."

"0-0 is by no means the end, it just leads us to go to Madrid with humility, where we don't have any reservations, we don't have any reservations, it's expected to be a big fight , all of us will fight to reach the final."

"Their home record is not a problem. The reason why they can still win is because they haven't met us. Before they met us, Naples would never have imagined that they would be out after scoring 12 points in the Champions League group stage. Before meeting us, Barcelona never imagined that they would lose 0:4 to a German team..."
